After dinner, Aunt Liu came to clean up the mess as usual. After Nanxi coaxed the little guy to sleep, she began to think about money in her heart.
Although Ji Shanglin had told her that she didn't need to pay him back, she still wasn't at ease. After all, she had so much money.
She was worried that Ji Shanglin would go back on his word!
This was her problem. After thinking about it for a while, she still lifted the blanket and got off the bed …
Ji Shanglin was sitting on the sofa, frowning and wearing a serious expression as he held the video conference.
He had not been idle since dinner. Although he was out, his work had never stopped.
No one's money is blown by the wind...
His expensive tablet computer sat on the old South Creek stoop, with Bluetooth earphones in his ears.
Nan Xi knew that he was busy at the moment. He first pretended to go to the bathroom, then went to the balcony to pretend to make a phone call. From time to time, he would glance at Ji Shanglin.
She found that most of the time he was being told he was listening, and occasionally he would say something in fluent English.
As for what he said … She didn't understand.
When she was in school, everyone was more headstrong than she was when she was' learning math and physics and not as good as having a father '. She was no exception, and her English was terrible.
"Purchasing!" Ji took off his Bluetooth headset and slammed the computer shut.
He leaned against the back of the sofa and let out a long breath. He closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. His face was full of fatigue.
This was the first time she realized that Ji Shanglin was tired.
She had thought that he was a man made of iron, so she didn't know what it meant to be tired!
He was already so rich, yet he was still working so hard!
He really agreed with that sentence. Someone with more money than you is working harder than you. Serves you right for being poor!
He poured a cup of warm water and walked in front of him. "Do you need any help?"
Ji Shanglin opened his eyes and pointed at his temple.
Without waiting for him to express his opinion, South Stream directly walked up behind him, and placed both hands on his temples to lightly press and knead.
When Nan Xi's slightly ice-cold finger made contact with Ji Shanglin, his eyebrows were knitted together vigilantly. With just a glance, one could tell that he had never been so intimate with Ji Shanglin before.
His identity was precious, and there were quite a few people who wanted to kill him.
For safety's sake, he never interacted much with others, let alone massaging his feet when he had nothing better to do.
"Don't be so nervous, relax."
Nanxi's voice, which could be considered gentle, came from behind him, relaxing Ji Shanglin's taut nerves.
Time flew by, second by second, and the room fell into silence. The only sound that could be heard was the breathing of the two of them in the air.
The window was still open, and a light breeze was blowing outside. Occasionally, a gust of wind would blow in, causing the curtains to rustle.
After all, he had studied medicine for several years and was familiar with the acupuncture points of the human body. Massaging was his forte.
It was rare for Ji Shanglin to be this relaxed. Normally, he looked like a light breeze, but no one could compare to him if he was busy.
The number of brain cells he needed to kill every day was tens of millions of times that of an ordinary person!
If he wanted to wear the crown, he would have to bear the weight!
In this era of intense competition, there was no such thing as getting something once and for all!
Ji Shanglin lightly closed his eyes as he enjoyed this moment of ease. The fatigue in his body slowly disappeared as he unconsciously became drowsy.
It was not easy to fall asleep in front of an outsider due to one's high vigilance.
The strength in Nan Xi's hands became increasingly light, and slowly … She pulled her hand away and tilted her head to look. The man was fast asleep.
"Whooosh."
He let out a long breath.
Originally, she came out to talk about money, but her hands were itchy and she waited on this person for more than 20 minutes, forcing him to fall asleep.
Fine, we won't be able to talk about the money. Let's just treat it as repaying the favor of him covering his face today!
Nan Xi tiptoed back to his bedroom. He was already lying on his bed. But after thinking for a moment, he stood up, opened the cabinet, and took out a blanket.
After gently covering Ji Shanglin up, he yawned and returned to his bedroom.
On the morning of the second day.
When Nan Xi woke up, he first turned around and glanced at Little Meng Bao, and the corners of his mouth curved up into a smile.
She was already used to seeing the little guy when she woke up.
She really didn't know what she would do if the little guy separated from her one day!
He gave the little guy a gentle kiss on the cheek before sending him a good morning kiss. Then, he lifted off the bed.
As soon as she stepped out of the bedroom, she was shocked that a certain man had not woken up yet.
Counting the days, Ji Shanglin had lived at home for quite some time. Every day, he would wake up earlier than her, and today, it was truly unexpected.
He tiptoed over and approached...
Looking at this handsome face, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. No wonder everyone liked handsome men and beautiful women. This scum of a man was really pleasing to the eye when he wasn't angry!
Long eyelashes on the nose, thin, rosy lips, eyelashes with eyeliner, shapely eyebrows, and a sharp, chisel-like face... The more he looked at it, the better it looked.
One word: handsome!
Two: So handsome!
Multiple words: Extremely cool!
"Have you seen enough?" A certain man suddenly opened his eyes.
"…" F * ck! It almost scared Nan Xi to death.
If he was a lesser demon, he would have lost his soul by now.
The heck, why didn't this person wake up with any forewarning? Shouldn't he be yawning and stretching his eyelashes?
"If you want to see it, then do it out in the open. You're a cop, why do you need to sneak around like a thief?!"
A certain man had already sat up and was looking at her with frivolous eyebrows.
With a face full of 'If you like me, admit it openly!' The look on his face.
Nan Xi's face was red with embarrassment. She knew that there was no point in speaking any further, so she turned around and walked into the bathroom.
Ji Shanglin narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the bathroom with a smile on his face.
He looked at the blanket on the sofa and a strange look flashed across his eyes.
The scene of Nan Xi pressing his temple last night was still vivid in his mind.
He really didn't expect this … Such a rough woman could do such meticulous work.
Looking at the time, he switched on the computer again.
There was a document that should have been reviewed last night, but he fell asleep and had to send it out before eight this morning.
When Nan Xi came out from the bathroom and saw that Ji Shanglin was working again, he curled his lips. Wasn't this man too busy?
They made him feel as if he was risking his life!
She wanted to go back to her bedroom when she saw the time, but after thinking about the money, she went silent for a while and then walked back to her room.
He sat beside Ji Shanglin without the slightest modesty, glanced at his computer, and asked, "You're still busy?"
Ji Shanglin raised his head as his brows slightly knitted.
He was looking down on South Stream for not having the eye for money, and he was dealing with confidential company documents that outsiders had no right to look at.
However, he didn't evade and continued to busy himself.
Of course he did not know that even if he were to be so magnanimous as to let South Stream see him, she would not be able to understand, and her knowledge would be low.
Seeing that Ji Shanglin didn't answer her, she asked again, "How long are you going to be busy?"
"What's the matter?" This time, Ji Shanglin didn't even raise his head as he rapidly typed on the keyboard with his slender white fingers.
"That... "I know you don't lack money. I also know that you are a man of honor and you mean what you say …"
If she had something to ask for, she would first compliment him. This was a skill in speech that Tang Wei had taught her.
Seeing that Nan Xi's tone was very abnormal today, Ji Shanglin looked at her and said, "Get to the point, I don't have time to listen to your blabbering."
The corner of Nan Xi's mouth twitched, and he shamelessly said, "About the money, why don't you write a note?"
Ji Shanglin's long and narrow eyes suddenly narrowed …
