chapter 146 I Can't Have Been Paid for Nothing

On that same day, at Longwan Villa.

Rui Li was awakened by a rather loud thud. Instinctively, she opened the door and walked into Nan Fengyan's room. The room was empty, but there was a faint sound coming from the bathroom.

"Ouch!" came Nan Fengyan's soft cry from the bathroom.

Without thinking, Rui Li turned the doorknob of the bathroom: "Nan Fengyan, are you okay?"

The bathroom was filled with steam. Nan Fengyan, naked, was holding on to the wall and getting up. He twisted his body and looked at Rui Li, who had suddenly entered. He froze, and the two of them stared at each other for a second.

Rui Li felt a rush of heat to her head. Maybe it was because the bathroom was too hot and humid. She was so scared that she immediately backed out, closing the door for him. She clenched her fists tightly and said angrily:

"Why aren't you wearing any clothes!"

Nan Fengyan coughed awkwardly twice inside the bathroom and retorted:

"I'm taking a shower. Why should I wear clothes!"

Rui Li had nothing to say and secretly regretted her recklessness.

"Hehe," Nan Fengyan was rustling around inside, putting on a bathrobe. There was a mischievous smile on his face. He deliberately opened the collar of the bathrobe very wide and casually walked out.

"You just saw me. You have to be responsible for me!" Nan Fengyan moved in front of Rui Li and teased.

Rui Li didn't expect that when Nan Fengyan came out, he was almost as good as being naked. She was so angry that she almost fainted:

"Nan Fengyan, I think you have exhibitionism. You like being looked at by others."

At this moment, Nan Fengyan was only wearing a white bathrobe. The collar was extremely loose and even deliberately pulled very low, deliberately showing his standard figure curve, his six - pack abs, and his healthy wheat - colored skin. This made Rui Li realize that he wasn't as weak as he seemed on the surface.

Nan Fengyan spread his hands indifferently, indicating for Rui Li to help him to the bed.

Rui Li crossed her arms and looked at him, not moving.

Nan Fengyan raised his eyebrows, then moved extremely awkwardly to the bed by himself and said as he walked:

"This is my home. I don't even need to wear clothes when I come out of the shower."

"Whatever you want. You can expose yourself in front of your servants in the future. I'm here to say goodbye to you." Rui Li regained her calm.

"I won't dress like this in the future. You..." Nan Fengyan's expression changed, and he immediately tried to persuade her to stay. But before he could finish his sentence, his phone rang.

"Who is it?" Nan Fengyan leaned forward to see clearly, but Rui Li directly pressed the answer button.

"Rui Li, it's bad. We can't hide it anymore. The old master has been saying since yesterday that he wants to be discharged from the hospital and go back to the company. Now he's asking me to call a car right away and take him back."

"Mom, don't worry. I'll come right away. You just hold him off for now." Rui Li said crisply.

Nan Fengyan leaned over to Rui Li's side and heard the content of the call.

"I have to go." Rui Li put away her phone and said to Nan Fengyan.

"Wait!" Nan Fengyan grabbed her hand and explained: "I have something to tell you. Your family's company still belongs to you. I bought it at the auction."

Rui Li's originally somewhat anxious expression immediately froze. She stared at Nan Fengyan for several seconds and then suddenly said calmly: "Why did you do this?"

Nan Fengyan thought Rui Li was asking knowingly and didn't want to confess his feelings at this time. He just said: "Anyway, the company still belongs to your family. You should go back first and comfort your family."

"Okay, thank you. I owe you another one." Rui Li let out a sigh of relief and turned to open the door.

"Wait a minute!" Nan Fengyan suddenly called out to her again.

Rui Li turned around and saw an emotion in his eyes that she couldn't understand. She couldn't help but ask: "What else?"

"Since you said you owe me, how about being my bodyguard to repay me?"

Rui Li's sharp eyes swept across Nan Fengyan's perfect face, and she replied crisply: "Okay!"

These days, Xia Weilan had been by the old master's side. She attended meetings with him and went back to the office with him. The old master only stayed in the company in the morning. After the meeting, he quickly returned to the Xia Mansion to rest. After that, Xia Weilan was a bit at a loss for what to do for the whole afternoon.

Xia Weilan's office was next to the chairman's office. At this moment, she felt a bit stuffy in the office and couldn't help but make a video call to Mo Beichen.

At Mo Ying Group, Mo Beichen's phone rang. He looked up from the company documents, casually glanced at it, and when he saw the name on the screen, he couldn't help but curl his lips. He immediately put down the documents and answered the call.

"What's up?" Mo Beichen leaned back on the huge leather chair. Behind him was a vast complex of buildings. The most prosperous scenery of the entire capital city was unobstructed through the glass window.

"I'm really bored being this intern chairman, so I just wanted to see what you're doing."

Mo Beichen's eyebrows twitched. So, it meant she missed him. He curled his lips and said seriously: "The chairman usually doesn't have much to do. You just need to go to the meetings. You have the right to vote and the right to appoint and remove. If you have nothing to do in the afternoon, you can just read more books or take a walk. You don't have to stay cooped up in the office all the time."

"Ah, I feel like I'm just loafing around." Xia Weilan said helplessly.

"You're an intern chairman. You just need to assign the company's affairs to the right people. Actually, you don't need to worry about much. Just make sure no one can find fault with you." Mo Beichen analyzed calmly and patiently.

Secretary Xu Wei saw from outside that Mo Beichen had been holding his phone and talking to someone. He couldn't help but take a few more looks at Mo Beichen, looking extremely surprised.

General Manager Mo had always been a workaholic. What could be so important that he would put down his documents and talk to someone for so long?

Who on earth was the other person?

Xu Wei's curiosity was piqued, but because he was far away, he had no idea what General Manager Mo was talking about.

After a while, Xu Wei silently walked in with a cup of hot coffee.

In the office, Mo Beichen actually curled his lips into a smile. Although it was very faint, Xu Wei still noticed it.

Xu Wei put the coffee on the desk and then glanced at Mo Beichen's phone out of the corner of his eye. He immediately saw Xia Weilan on the other side.

Xu Wei paused for a few seconds. No wonder General Manager Mo wasn't even dealing with official business. He was having a little chat with his girlfriend.

Mo Beichen suddenly glanced at Xu Wei. That glance was very faint, but it carried an air of an undeniable superior. Xu Wei immediately lowered his head, backed out, and closed the door.

"Then I'll just take the opportunity to stroll around the company and learn more about the company's internal affairs. I can't just take the salary for free." Xia Weilan said again.

"Which department do you want to learn about first?"

"The advertising department, the project department, and the finance department. These are the important departments." Xia Weilan said seriously.

Mo Beichen nodded. Her tiny figure was reflected in his black pupils.

After that, the two of them said a few more words, and then Xia Weilan hung up the video call.

Mo Beichen put his phone back on the desktop. The image of Xia Weilan full of energy flashed through his mind, and a gentle look slipped across his eyes.
