Chapter 490 Loyal and Skilled
Ning Yao fell asleep and when she woke up, the spicy hot pot was gone, and what was placed on the table in front of her was afternoon tea prepared by Mr. Bocuse.
The room temperature was set to a comfortable 25 degrees Celsius, neither too hot nor too cold. Beside her was a set of clean clothes, with her underwear neatly folded, clearly brought there intentionally so she could put them on when she woke up.
There was a note on the clothes, the handwriting was soft and elegant, and it was obvious that the writer had practiced calligraphy.
I have some official business to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Eat something when you wake up, and call me anytime if you miss me.
Ning Yao's lips, red as if about to bleed, twitched slightly. She felt something strange about her body; a cool sensation in a certain area. This feeling was familiar; it seemed to happen every time after "that" time.
It was Wen Tingye who applied the ointment to her. This ointment was cooling and soothing, relieving her soreness and making her feel less uncomfortable.
The curtains were drawn tightly, made of a light-blocking material, so not a single ray of light could get in.
Ning Yao didn't bring her phone, and there was no clock in Guan Ying's room, so she didn't know what time it was.
After getting out of bed, Ning Yao went barefoot. The area around her seemed to have been cleaned, and the embarrassing marks had disappeared.
When it comes to thoughtfulness, if Wen Tingye is second, then there is no first...
Ning Yao went outside and, as soon as she opened the door, saw a familiar face.
Who else could it be but Ning Chen?
Perhaps because Wen Tingye had taken her next door to show affection, Ning Yao always felt a little awkward when facing her son.
Fortunately, Ning Chen showed no signs of distress and remained as gentle and naive as ever.
"Mom, an auntie just called you. She said she's your best friend, Yang Dongcha." Ning Chen said, handing Ning Yao her phone.
It turned out that the son had been standing outside the door waiting, and no one knew how long he had been standing there.
Ning Yao's eyes showed apology as she said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Why are you standing at the door? Aren't you hot?"
"It's alright, it's not too hot." Ning Chen smiled and looked down, his voice carrying a unique gentleness characteristic of a young man.
"Go back first, I'll pack up Aunt Guan Ying's things and come over." Ning Yao urged Ning Chen to go back to his room and wait, instead of standing in the corridor.
After Ning Yao finished packing, Guan Ying returned. Seeing that Wen Tingye was not there, she naturally followed Ning Yao back to the apartment.
Ning Chen sat on the sofa holding his computer. He had already cracked the password; it turned out to be a combination of his and his mother's birthdays.
Not only was his computer password related to his mother, but his desktop background was also a photo of him with his mother.
His mother's smile was infectious, and he reached out and gently put his arm around her shoulder. His smile wasn't as radiant as Ning Yao's, but his eyes were filled with a captivating tenderness.
Ning Yao was on the phone with Yang Dongcha at the window. Ning Chen didn't hear what they were saying, but he could hear his mother's voice. He felt that the whole room became warm and cozy, as if a black and white room had suddenly been filled with color.
"Dongcha will pick me up from school later. I'm going to a party tonight," Ning Yao said to Ning Chen after putting down her phone and sitting down gently.
"Should I take you back to the hospital, or do you stay with Mom?"
“I’ll go with you.” Ning Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment, but when he spoke again, he gave a different answer.
"The party was too noisy; it's not suitable for the patient to stay in such a place for too long."
“Besides, your Aunt Yang’s friends are a mixed bag, none of them are good people.” Ning Yao shook her head, unwilling to let her son go with her.
She wasn't belittling her best friend, but she was telling the truth. She didn't mind that her friend had this kind of personality, but that didn't mean she wanted her son to follow Yang Dongcha's bad example.
These bachelor/bachelor parties are mostly attended by Yang Dongcha's drinking buddies; very few of them are serious people, and there's no benefit in going.
Ning Chen frowned upon hearing Ning Yao's words. He put down his computer, looked up at Ning Yao, and his eyes were clear and pure.
Since my mother's best friend's friends are a mixed bag, the scene must be very chaotic.
There are countless men who take advantage of beautiful women at these parties; how could Ning Chen feel at ease?
"Mom, you said it yourself, Aunt Yang's friends are all sorts of people, so how can I feel at ease letting you go alone?"
“I’m not going alone, Mom has bodyguards,” Ning Yao shrugged nonchalantly as she answered her son.
“Bodyguards aren’t always reliable; there are many situations they can’t control.” Ning Chen’s tone was serious, showing no intention of backing down.
Guan Ying, who was innocently shot next to her, twitched at the corner of her mouth.
How can bodyguards be unreliable? There's another bodyguard in the room. Can't they at least consider her feelings?
Back then, the National Defense Security Bureau even wanted to hire her. If she hadn't felt the environment was too restrictive, she wouldn't have chosen to be a private bodyguard. She would have had a stable job by now. She's quite famous in this industry, you know.
"Mom, please take me with you. If I feel unwell, I'll leave right away and won't make you worry." Ning Chen switched to a pitiful and sorrowful demeanor, making it impossible for anyone to refuse.
Ning Chen even silently reached out and grabbed a corner of Ning Yao's dress, gently shaking it.
Ning Yao's heart tightened instantly, her eyes widened in shock, and then she looked down at her son in disbelief.
Is he being affectionate with himself?
So cute! Oh my god, is this really her cold-hearted, ruthless, and cool son who only knows how to code?
When her son used his trump card, Ning Yao couldn't resist and immediately nodded in agreement.
Let him go. Anyway, if her son is really not feeling well, he won't force himself. She can just send him off when the time comes.
"Okay, Mom will take you, but if you feel uncomfortable from the noise, you must tell me."
"Well, I will."
After they had discussed it, Ning Yao went inside to put on makeup, and at the same time sent messages to Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue, inviting them to join her.
This is a great opportunity to see handsome guys, so how could I not invite my friends along?
Yang Dongcha has access to some of the best handsome men in the capital city; there's no one she can't get her hands on, only men they can't imagine.
As expected, Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue agreed immediately without even thinking about it when they heard that they were going to such an interesting party.
After putting on makeup and changing clothes, Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue arrived at the teachers' apartment. Naturally, they both brought out their best gear and dressed up nicely.
When Cui Mengmeng sat on the sofa, she took out her lipstick and carefully touched up her lips in front of the mirror.
The lipstick cap screws on and clicks shut with a crisp sound.
"Are you really going to a party full of handsome guys dressed like this?" Cui Mengmeng asked in surprise, glancing at Guan Ying, who was almost completely without makeup.
"Otherwise what?" Guan Ying frowned inexplicably. What did it have to do with her, as a bodyguard, if Boss Ning was attending a party with his friends?
Is she also going to change into a pair of high heels that are difficult to walk in, and a super short skirt that restricts her leg movement?
What if there's danger? Should you protect someone barefoot? It's not impossible, but it's a bit unseemly.
"You don't have a boyfriend, right? Dress up a bit, maybe you'll run into one tonight?" Cui Mengmeng kindly reminded her.
"I don't need a boyfriend. I can earn my own money and support myself. What would I need a man for? To pick him up from get off work and protect him?"
"..." Cui Mengmeng was speechless after Guan Ying's question.
So he shut his mouth and gave Guan Ying a look that said he was hopeless.
So a straight woman is a straight woman...
But it's good, if someone with a love-struck mind were protecting her Yao Yao, she might not be so at ease.
Guan Ying is a bit dull, but fortunately she is loyal to Ning Yao and is quite skilled.
"Knock Knock Knock-"
"Yaoyao, are you all better yet?"
Yang Dongcha's voice came from outside the door; he had already driven over.
Ning Yao wore a light and refreshing makeup look that enhanced her complexion, and a retro-style knee-length skirt that was off-the-shoulder and fitted at the waist. Flat shoes were also very convenient for her.
The young woman laughed and said, "We're here! We're all ready, let's go!"
