Ning Bo heaved a sigh of relief.
This time, Ning Anlan was willing to return to manage the company. He was very happy. Although he didn't know why such a sudden change occurred, it was good enough that he could return.
Unexpectedly, Ning Anlan's management ability was also very good, and Ning Bo was very satisfied.
"Let's eat first." Ning Bo looked at the time. Ning Anlan definitely hadn't eaten yet. He must have been hungry after working all day.
The meal had already been prepared. It was all Ning Anlan's favorite food. He raised his head to look at Xu Peilan, who smiled at her.
Ning Anlan's heart was filled with an indescribable feeling. The only one who knew what she liked to eat was Xu Peran.
"Come to the study room after dinner." Ning Bo put down his bowl and chopsticks, looked at Ning Anlan, and then left the table.
Ning Anlan put down his bowl and chopsticks and followed Ning Bo.
"Sit down." Ning Bo pointed at the chair in front of them and asked Ning Anlan to sit down.
"Did you call me here for something?" Ning Anlan sat down, and her tone was rather cold. She had seen Ning Bo's face earlier, and felt a chill in her heart.
He didn't know what it was that he couldn't say in front of everyone, but he still had to call her into the study.
And now that she thought about what she had seen in the garden that day...
Ning Anlan frowned in disgust and subconsciously distanced himself from Ning Bo.
"Take this card." Ning Bo took out a bank card from his drawer and handed it over to Ning Anlan.
Ning Anlan looked at the card and frowned. She didn't accept it. She didn't know what Ning Bo meant by giving her this card. "This is …"
"Although I don't know how much money you have, but giving benefits to employees is for the sake of the Ning family. You can't take it yourself, so take this money."
Ning Anlan looked at the card in front of her and was stunned for a moment. She thought that Ning Bo called her to his study for some reason. She didn't expect that he only wanted to give her money.
It looked like he didn't have any intentions of blaming her. This was truly out of Ning Anlan's expectations.
"Thank you." Ning Anlan accepted the card. Ning Bo was right. After all, this was a matter for the company. There was no reason for her to pay for herself.
Since he had already given it to her, she might as well keep it.
Outside the door, Fu Yajin almost broke into the room. She thought that Ning Biluo had called her over for something, but she didn't expect him to let her hear this.
Ning Bo's attitude these few days made her feel like something was not right. Ning Anlan had caused such a mess, but Ning Bo actually didn't care about it at all. He just let Ning Anlan handle it all by himself.
The way she'd believed Ning Anlan made her really start panicking.
"I thought it would be just as you said. Ah Luan would say that it was her, but I didn't expect it to be a good thing." Xu Peilan heaved a sigh of relief. She had been very nervous earlier, afraid that Ning Bo would get angry at Ning Anlan. Now that she saw that nothing had happened, she could finally relax.
From an angle that Xu Pailan couldn't see, Fu Yaqin cast a disgusted glance at Xu Pailan. She had heard it from the corner of the wall, so she had no choice but to say that she was afraid Ning Anlan would scold her so she came to the corner to listen.
Now that she saw how excited Xu Pailan was, Fu Yajin felt her chest tighten as she was unable to catch her breath.
This friend of hers was really stupid. If it wasn't for the fact that Xu Perlan's husband was Ningbo, she wouldn't have become his sister.
"En, it's good that nothing happened. Looks like I overthought things." Fu Yaqin gritted her teeth. She didn't want anything to happen to him. It would be best if he got even worse as he scolded her.
"Let's go, I'm going to make some snacks for An Lan. He's been tired for so many days, so he definitely hasn't had a proper meal."
Xu Peilan left happily, leaving Fu Yaqin to dry stamp her feet at the door.
"There's nothing else, right? I'll be leaving first." Ning Anlan put the card in his bag and turned to leave.
"Wait, didn't you say a few days ago that you were going to join the board of directors?" Ning Anlan had initially thought that nothing had happened and was about to leave, but he was suddenly called over by Ning Bo to discuss the matter of entering the board of directors. He had no choice but to stop in his tracks.
However, she frowned subconsciously. Why did Ning Bo suddenly bring up the board of directors? Didn't he say that he would let her in? Could it be that he was going to change his mind? Ning Anlan gritted her teeth. She knew that Ning Bo wasn't giving her a simple sum of money.
"Yes, I did. What about it?" Ning Anlan's voice was cold and emotionless.
Ning Bo didn't care about all this. He merely smiled lightly and said, "Prepare yourself. This press conference is over, and the people outside have a good impression of you. This will also benefit your advancement to the board of directors. I'll arrange it next week."
Ning Anlan was silent. He didn't think that Ning Bo would actually let her join the board of directors next week. This was completely different from what she had expected.
"Alright." Ning Anlan nodded. Although it was very different from what she had expected, this was exactly what she wanted.
"Are you staying at home tonight? Your mom misses you."
"No, I'm used to living over there. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep if I stay here." Ning Anlan really didn't want to live here anymore. The thought of meeting Fu Yiyi and Fu Yaoqin again made her want to vomit.
Ning Bo didn't have much of an expression on his face when he heard Ning Anlan's rejection. He only nodded his head and let Ning Anlan out of the room.
Ning Anlan went downstairs and saw Xu Peilan busy in the kitchen.
In reality, other than trusting others too easily and not being on guard against them, Xu Pilan was still alright. It's just that she was too arrogant in her previous life and didn't have much contact with Xu Pilan.
"Mom, I'm leaving first." Ning Anlan called out to her. She was already at the door when she suddenly realized that something wasn't right and lifted her head.
Fu Yiyi's eyes were fixed on her. The hatred in her eyes was about to spill out. However, when Ning Anlan looked over, she quickly retracted her gaze.
"Elder sister, are you leaving?" Seeing Fu Yiyi turn into a sweet girl in just a second, Ning Anlan did not pay any attention to her. He only turned his head to look at Xu Peilan.
"Not here?" Seeing that Ning Anlan was about to leave, Xu Peilan's face was filled with reluctance. On the other hand, Fu Yaoqin, who was standing behind him, felt irritated when she saw the mother and daughter's deep affection for each other.
Everything was not as she had expected. She did not know where the problem came from.
"No need, there are too many people here. How noisy, I'll be leaving first. I'll come back to see you next week."
After Ning Anlan finished speaking, he turned around and left without even looking at Fu Yiyi and Fu Yaoqin's reactions.
"Remember to eat on time." Xu Peilan shouted at Ning Anlan, who waved his hand, indicating that he already knew.
Today, she didn't bring Zhang Chang or Ah Shou with her. She came back by herself. When she was halfway in the car, her phone started ringing non-stop. Ning Anlan saw that it was Ning Bo.
