Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 1554 - 1543: Ning Fan, the Punching Bag

"What's so interesting to look at?"Ning Fan said with a straight face, "I still prefer petite little buns."

Seeing Xu Xiaoqing, blushing and silent, Ning Fan smirked inwardly, "You want to compete with me, little girl? You're still a bit too green."

Before long, Rose appeared in a purple dress, lazily sitting across from Ning Fan,

Revealing two long, fair, beautiful legs beneath the wide skirt hem.

Although her legs were crossed, they lacked the frivolity of a casual posture, adding a touch of unique charm instead.

Especially when her toes playfully tapped, causing the skirt to sway slightly, one could glimpse a hint of mystery deep within the folds.

"This woman really has some skills; every move exudes endless allure."

By the way, through that tiny gap, Ning Fan's eyesight once again performed a miraculous feat; purple thong.

Rose, taking in Ning Fan's expression, then said to Xu Xiaoqing, "Second Miss Xu, what brings you here?"

"This is my family's business; why shouldn't I be here..."

Before Xu Xiaoqing could finish her sentence, Ning Fan interrupted, "Second Miss means, since you are a guest far from home, it's only natural as the host to come and properly entertain you."

"Is that so?"

Rose gently smiled, sipping her fragrant tea.

At that moment, Xu Xiaoqing sneakily kicked Ning Fan, who immediately understood and said, "Miss Rose, yesterday you mentioned not needing our company's security, yet here today you..."

This was something the two had planned on the way, bringing up this topic intentionally.

With Rose's proud nature, if someone accuses her of going back on her word to her face,

there's a good chance she will, in a fit of anger, drive Ning Fan away.

This was exactly Ning Fan's intention in saying this.

As for Rose's safety, Ning Fan wasn't going to ignore it; he could handle it from the shadows.

Why work in the open as a subordinate for this arrogant woman?

Ning Fan's words were incomplete, but the implication was clear.

Rose said expressionlessly, "It's all because of you."

"What did I do?"

"You injured William yesterday, leaving me without anyone to use. So I had to find someone to make do."

"Make do, my ass."

If not for Xu Ruolan, Ning Fan would definitely have walked away on the spot.

"Hmph. When did Ning Fan hit anyone?"

Xu Xiaoqing said sarcastically, "Wasn't it all according to your request for a handshake collaboration?"

Rose said to Ning Fan, "I don't care. Anyway, until he recovers, you have to stay by my side."

After speaking, Rose continued to verbally corner Xu Xiaoqing, "Didn't you just say I'm a guest? You won't refuse the guest's request as the host, will you? Otherwise, if word gets out, it might not be good for Xu Corporation's reputation."

"You..."

Hearing this, Xu Xiaoqing was at a loss for words to counter.

Rose's words were truly airtight.

Xu Corporation invited her, and now facing this reasonable demand, Xu Corporation would indeed be unreasonable to refuse.

"Appreciate Miss Rose's high regard, I'll stay then."

Even though Ning Fan was utterly reluctant, he had to pinch his nose and accept.

Rose stood up and said, "Second Miss, shall we go?"

"Where to?"

Xu Xiaoqing lay lazily, making no move to get up.

"Since the Second Miss is unwilling, I'll have to trouble Mr. Xu then."

Rose muttered to herself, "Mr. Xu said on this Zhonghai trip, I'll be reluctant to leave."

"Oh my gosh. Is this woman ignorant, or is she doing it on purpose? Can't even tell such an obvious courtesy phrase."

Looking at the big burden on Rose's chest, four words popped into Ning Fan's mind, "Big boobs, no brain."

"Let's go then."

Xu Xiaoqing nearly gritted her teeth as she uttered four words; Rose was clearly intending to file a complaint.

"This despicable, scheming big-boobed woman, I hope you get breast cancer sooner or later."

With Xu Xiaoqing's resentful gaze, Rose chuckled lightly and said, "You guys wait a moment, I'll put on some makeup first."

"What an international star! Can't meet people without makeup. Not as pretty bare-faced as Xiaoqing is."

Hearing Ning Fan's mutter, the fire in Xu Xiaoqing's heart vanished without a trace.

Noticing Xiaoqing's change, Ning Fan breathed a sigh of relief, "What a close call! Finally got through it."

Ning Fan already had a sense that the days ahead would be very tough.

Just in that short time, so much happened. Given their personalities, verbal sparring was inevitable.

With Rose having the "Shangfang Sword" in hand, Xu Xiaoqing is simply no match and will surely be angered into an internal injury.

By then, Ning Fan would become the punching bag, solely for Xu Xiaoqing's venting.

"A long ten days ahead!"

Thinking of this, Ning Fan sighed.

In no time, instead of experiencing the "long" ten days, Ning Fan got an initial taste of the long wait for makeup.

Waiting for more than an hour, Xu Xiaoqing finally couldn't bear it and erupted with complaints, "This damn woman, she's definitely doing this on purpose, definitely."

If Ning Fan hadn't timely used True Qi to enclose the sound and prevent it from spreading, there would have been a good show to watch.

Ning Fan's ears moved as he softly reminded, "Stop talking. She's coming out."

Xu Xiaoqing huffed angrily but didn't continue to flare up.

Though she was somewhat headstrong, she knew where to draw the line on major issues.

Seeing Rose return, Xu Xiaoqing sarcastically remarked, "Miss Rose, your makeup is really meticulous, finished just before nightfall."

"This is a woman's charm, something a little girl like you wouldn't understand."

As she spoke, Rose took a deep breath, her upper body even expanding further, "Sister gives you a piece of advice: a woman who doesn't know how to dress up can never be considered a true woman."

Looking at the alluring and captivating Rose, Xu Xiaoqing had to admit that 'charm' was something not associated with her.

At this moment, Ning Fan suddenly said loudly, "Beauty comes in a hundred forms, with a thousand kinds of allure. There's an ancient Huaxia poem that goes, 'To liken the West Lake to Xi Shi, both light and heavy make-up suit it well.' Whether heavily or lightly done, both have their unique grace."

The gloom on Xu Xiaoqing's face instantly turned radiant again.

Rose's expression changed, her beautiful eyes looking at Ning Fan in surprise, as if truly seeing this man for the first time.

With keen interest, Rose asked, "I wonder, does Manager Ning prefer heavy make-up or natural looks?"

"Only children make choices. I, of course, want both."

Ning Fan naturally wouldn't speak his mind, standing with his hands behind his back and indifferently said, "Compared to heavily painted glamour, I prefer fresh and natural elegance."

"Is that so?"

Rose's lips curled into a smile, her enchanting face blooming like a vibrant rose.

"Perhaps one day, you'll change your choice, maybe."
