Chapter 3106: with translation of chapter title
【They said, quickly write a love song……】
Zheng Ren's phone rang; he picked it up and glanced at it, his whole body's blood froze.
Ning Shu!
The phone displayed this; even if Zheng Ren really didn't want to see those two words.
Just moments ago the relaxed, chatty atmosphere vanished in an instant; Zheng Ren's facial muscles twitched slightly, jerked twice, and then he realized he had to answer the phone.
He struggled to regain his composure, and the song from the phone just kept playing.
"Boss? Answer the phone." Su Yun strangely looked at Zheng Ren, but in an instant realized what had happened, he chuckled and asked, "Was it Ning Shu calling?"
Zheng Ren nodded blankly.
"Manager Zhou, let's go outside and wait for the patient to come back." Su Yun was considerate; his own boss needed to speak with his father-in-law, that embarrassing situation better not be watched, lest he later write it in his little black book and occasionally take it out for revenge.
His own boss's conduct,
Zhou Litao looked bewildered, not knowing what had happened. But he had one advantage—he listens to advice.
After they left, Zheng Ren's mental preparation was pretty much done; he answered the phone with a solemn expression.
"Ning Shu." Zheng Ren said in a standard announcer's tone, the tail end slightly trembling, though he didn't notice.
Originally his voice was deep and heavy, and unintentionally he added an affected tone, making his voice even deeper and heavier.
"Zheng Ren?" Ning Shu asked doubtfully.
"Cough cough cough..." Zheng Ren hurriedly relaxed his throat muscles, coughed twice and said, "Ning Shu, it's me. I've had a slight cold these days, it's fine... it's fine..."
He weakly protested.
"You're about to receive the award, be careful not to get sick." Xie Ning said, "I and your Aunt Wan are in Germany, heading to Sweden right away."
"……"
Zheng Ren never imagined Ning Shu would also go to Sweden; out of nowhere, a left hook struck his jaw.
"The awards ceremony can bring an entourage, right? You need two tickets."
Before Zheng Ren could recover, Xie Ning landed a right hook to his left temple, and his Energy Value plummeted.
Countless scenes unfolded in Zheng Ren's mind; a snap of the fingers and a lifetime passed.
Hearing Zheng Ren silent on the phone, Xie Ning knew that brat must be in a confused state, he smiled slightly, "I and your Aunt Wan will arrive in Sweden tomorrow afternoon, don't forget."
He didn't say anything else, just hung up the phone.
"A Ning, why isn't Zheng Ren speaking?" Lin Wan looked at Xie Ning smiling and asked.
"That brat short-circuited again." Xie Ning shook his head.
"Don't be so fierce."
"Fierce? How could that be? My attitude is just short of not greeting Zheng Lao Ban first." Xie Ning smirked, "Speaking of which, this kid has been getting more and more arrogant lately."
"You're no different; the first time you entered our house, you didn't even know to change your shoes." Lin Wan covered her mouth and chuckled, "You're just like a block of wood; drinking almost made you fall flat on your face."
"I... I was fine the second time, I made Mom happy." Xie Ning said, "Zheng Ren, hey! It's been so long; surely I don't have to go look for him—just call him Zheng Lao Ban before and after."
"You'll scare the kid; I think he's not bad, at least he's honest." Lin Wan said, "We can go to the awards ceremony, right? Finally we can go see the Nobel Prize awarding scene in person—count it as a check-in."
"Stockholm City Hall…… it's like that old European opera house architectural style, you remember? We went once." Xie Ning said, "This time should be fine, as long as that brat wants us to go."
"Look what you're saying, don't always target Zheng Ren." Lin Wan said, "I remember, many years ago we went here once, and even took a special look at this place. Swedish-style three-story courtyard building, north-south oriented, south facing the rippling Lake Mälaren. The long square in front of the hall has fountains, sculptures, plants, and green spaces."
"Exactly, back then I even took a photo of you, you complained my photo lacked feeling, the developed picture sat in the cabinet, never put in the album."
"Just not heartfelt!"
"Yes, yes, sorry." Xie Ning smiled gently, his apology was quick and utterly heartless.
"This time I want to take a photo with Yi Ren; you guys, if you're busy, go attend to your own business." Lin Wan said.
"You'd better hurry, Yi Ren has things to attend to." Xie Ning said, "On my end I need to hold a new product demo, need to showcase a robotic arm. Yi Ren is a medical equipment nurse, she also must appear."
"You still want to promote your product at the Nobel Prize ceremony?" Lin Wan asked in surprise.
"The conference attendees are all top-tier big shots; a single word from them is worth more than many from others. At this moment, a little effort can move mountains—it's a great opportunity."
"Has Zheng Ren agreed?"
"I haven't told him yet; I need to sort out the details first." Xie Ning smiled, "We'll go tomorrow."
"I recall there's a Chinese restaurant over there."
"Um, Li's shop, I know, I know." Xie Ning said with a smile.
……
……
Zheng Ren held his phone, staring ahead, somewhat dazed.
After a few Minutes, Su Yun poked his head in, saw Zheng Ren sitting foolishly on the chair, the phone call already finished, so he came in.
"Boss, meditating? Have you cultivated battle qi? What level are you at now?" Su Yun asked.
"……" Zheng Ren exhaled, his palms sweaty, dripping with sweat.
"Don't talk nonsense."
"Ha, what does Ning Shu want from you? Is he asking for a bride price?" Su Yun didn't dare say anything else; he also didn't know what psychological trauma his boss had suffered in the past, such that receiving Ning Shu's call made him tremble like a dog.
If it were just asking for a bride price, that would be fine—anything solvable with money isn't a problem; Zheng Ren sighed deeply.
"What does Ning Shu want from you?"
"He and Aunt Wan are going to watch the award ceremony." Zheng Ren said softly.
"I'm going…… terrible!" Su Yun covered his head, "Can you still speak when you go on stage? Fortunately you don't need to speak when receiving the award, the banquet…… you figure it out."
Zheng Ren's right eye corner muscles twitched twice; he already imagined the scene of himself losing face before the whole world.
"Or I could tell Ning Shu we can't get the tickets, how about that?" Su Yun said with a smile.
Zheng Ren knew this guy was joking; not getting the tickets? If he didn't want to die, better not do that.
When it came to major principles, Zheng Ren still had his own Persistence, and he had a particularly clear grasp.
"By the way, Director Lin just called; the 5G network installation is complete. Should we perform a surgery before we leave?" Su Yun asked.
"Do it!"
Speaking of this, Zheng Ren's eyes lit up instantly, like the morning star on the horizon.
