Chapter 89

Ning Wei looked at Qin Ze in shock, unable to speak for a long time.

"President Qin, how did you know I wanted to make money to go back home and revive the martial arts hall?"

"The day I signed you, on the way back to the hotel, I heard you mention it," Qin Ze said.

Ning Wei's eyes were a bit red.

Reviving the Ning family martial arts hall was a wish she had buried in her heart, but she had never thought she could realize it.

Because she knew she didn't have the ability.

Opening a martial arts hall required money, land, and connections, and she was just a bodyguard, where would she get these things?

But now, Qin Ze actually said he wanted to invest in her.

"President Qin..." Ning Wei's voice was a bit choked, "But I've never done management, and I'm just a small bodyguard, I don't know anything about how a security company operates or how to run one!"

Qin Ze smiled.

"I'm not asking you to do everything alone."

"For management, I'll find professional people to be responsible. Operations, finance, personnel, these all have specialized people to handle."

"You only need to do one thing: oversee the big picture and make safety-related decisions."

"But the main thing is to coordinate with me, be responsible to me, and help me oversee things!"

Ning Wei was stunned.

"Just... just this?"

Qin Ze spread his hands!

"Just this!"

"You are responsible for supervising the company's safety standards and execution specifications."

"To put it plainly, you are my eyes."

Ning Wei thought about it carefully and felt that this job didn't seem that difficult.

"Then... then shall I try?"

"Not try," Qin Ze looked at her, "But must do it well."

Ning Wei took a deep breath and nodded vigorously.

"Okay!"

"President Qin, I'll do it!"

Qin Ze nodded with satisfaction.

"Good, I'll have Jiang Xin go talk to Taishan Security about the buyout in these few days. Once your contract is terminated, we'll start preparing for the new company."

Ning Wei paused and remembered something else.

"President Qin, then my current bodyguard job..."

"Continue doing it," Qin Ze said, "Before the company opens, you are still my bodyguard. Neither side will be delayed."

"Understood!"

Ning Wei responded confidently.

Qin Ze stood up and looked at her.

"By the way, is Shen Jingshu in her room?"

Ning Wei followed suit and stood up.

"Yes! I went shopping with her today, just got back!"

"Okay, I know."

"I'll go see her."

Ning Wei responded, watching Qin Ze walk toward the elevator.

When waiting for the elevator, Qin Ze looked back at Ning Wei.

"By the way, don't tell anyone else about the security company yet."

"Understood!" Ning Wei made a zipping gesture on her lips.

Qin Ze smiled and walked into the elevator.

Qin Ze came to Shen Jingshu's room and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" Shen Jingshu's voice came from inside.

"It's me."

Footsteps approached, and the door was opened.

Shen Jingshu stood at the door.

At this moment, she was wearing a rice-white silk nightdress, the neckline was very low, revealing a large area of fair skin.

At the neckline, that full curve was faintly visible.

The fabric of the dress was very thin, sticking to her body.

Outlining the curves unique to a mature woman.

Her hair was half-wet, draped over her shoulders.

The air was filled with a faint scent of body wash.

The whole person looked both lazy and sexy.

Shen Jingshu saw it was him, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Why did you come?"

"Came to see you," Qin Ze said.

Shen Jingshu stepped aside: "Come in and sit."

Qin Ze walked into the room.

Shen Jingshu's room was warmer than he had imagined, with a book on the bedside table, several bottles of skincare products on the vanity, and a bouquet of flowers on the windowsill.

Shen Jingshu closed the door and walked to the bed to sit down.

She crossed her legs, the hem of her nightdress sliding to her thighs, revealing a section of fair, tender thighs.

"Staying in this hotel is really comfortable! It's just too boring all day!" she asked.

Qin Ze sat on the sofa.

"If not, move to the villa first, my new company hasn't opened yet, wait until it's set up, then you can do things."

"Over at the villa, you can still be busy inside and out every day!"

Qin Ze looked at Shen Jingshu.

Shen Jingshu was older than him, in her early thirties, the age when a woman is most charming.

Qin Ze looked at Shen Jingshu and didn't rush to speak.

Shen Jingshu sat on the edge of the bed, the straps of her nightdress hanging loosely on her shoulders, and the skin after just taking a bath was still glowing with a faint pink.

She was crossing her legs, her toes shaking gently, like a lazy cat.

"Are you just looking at me like this?" Shen Jingshu smiled.

"Not speaking?"

Qin Ze walked over and sat down beside her.

"I was thinking, do your parents know about your divorce?"

Shen Jingshu's smile faded a bit.

"Definitely not."

She lowered her head, her fingers drawing circles on the bed sheet.

"I didn't dare tell them."

Qin Ze turned his head to look at her:

"Hiding it?"

Shen Jingshu sighed.

"My parents are both people who care about face, when I married Liu Bin back then, they felt Liu Bin was an up-and-comer."

"Now if I let them know I married a domestic abuser and got divorced... I'm afraid they won't be able to take it."

Qin Ze didn't respond, waiting for her to continue.

Shen Jingshu was silent for a while, her voice softening.

"Actually, my parents are both high-ranking officials."

Qin Ze raised his eyebrows.

"My dad used to be in the provincial government, and my mom spent her whole life in the system."

Shen Jingshu gave a bitter smile.

"But you know, that generation of theirs, they were clean and honest their whole lives. There really isn't much money at home."

"The only one they helped was Liu Bin."

Shen Jingshu said this, her tone carrying a hint of self-mockery.

"My dad pulled strings and introduced a lot of resources to Liu Bin. Most of the reason Liu Bin's company could open was because of my family's connections."

"And the result?"

She raised her head, her eyes a bit red.

"The result was that this is how Liu Bin repaid me."

Qin Ze reached out and put his arm around her shoulder.

Shen Jingshu rubbed against his chest, her voice muffled.

"Do you know, these few days have been the most comfortable days I've had in years."

"Having money to spend, not having to serve people, not having to look at Liu Bin's face."

She raised her head and looked into Qin Ze's eyes.

"I feel like I've come alive."

Qin Ze looked down at her and didn't speak.

Shen Jingshu's face blushed slightly, but she continued anyway.

"Before, when I was with Liu Bin, I felt like I was a nanny, like I was a tool."

"But with you, I feel like a woman."

She said this, her voice very light, but every word was very clear.

Qin Ze's heart moved slightly.

He didn't speak, just tightened his arm.

Shen Jingshu leaned in his arms, feeling the temperature of his chest, and suddenly said softly.

"Qin Ze, don't leave... tonight."

She said it vaguely, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Qin Ze looked down at her.

Shen Jingshu's face was as red as fire, but her eyes didn't dodge.

Shen Jingshu bit her lip.

"You are the first man who made me feel... I'm still worth being loved."

Qin Ze looked at her eyes that were shining with water and didn't speak.

He reached out, pulled the curtains, and turned off the lights.

……

Early the next morning.

Sunlight spilled in through the gap in the curtains, drawing a golden line on the floor.

Shen Jingshu woke up.

She turned her head and looked at Qin Ze sleeping beside her, the corners of her mouth curling up unconsciously.

This man, several years younger than her, but the feeling he gave her last night was ten thousand times better than scum like Liu Bin.

She reached out and touched Qin Ze's face gently.

Qin Ze opened his eyes.

"Awake?"

Shen Jingshu's voice carried the laziness of just waking up.

Qin Ze looked at her and smiled.

"What time is it?"

"Still early," Shen Jingshu leaned against him, "Lie down a bit longer."

Qin Ze didn't move, letting her lean on him.

The room was quiet for a while.

"Qin Ze," Shen Jingshu suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?"

"After a while, I want to take you back to see my parents."

Qin Ze was stunned:

"See your parents?"

Shen Jingshu raised her head.

"They will know sooner or later!"

"This matter still needs to be brought up!"

"I want to let them see that I'm doing very well now."

"Although you are younger than me, although there might be... more than one person around you."

"But at least, you treat me well."

Qin Ze was silent for a few seconds and nodded.

"Okay, you arrange it when the time comes."

Shen Jingshu smiled and kissed him on the face.

"By the way, when are you moving to the villa?" Qin Ze asked.

"Today," Shen Jingshu said.

"Staying in the hotel is comfortable, but living here forever isn't a thing, it's boring."

"Okay, I'll have Ning Wei help you move."
