Chapter 953: After His Beauty
Hidden Marriage
One should not judge a book by its cover. This crybaby who loved all things fluffy was actually from a family of renowned doctors and she had inherited incredible healing skills from her ancestors. In the end, that guy had agreed to keep her after realizing her potential.
That man would never keep anyone without value, even more so people who could drag the team down.
Oneâs ability determined their position within the organization and the amount of benefits they received. As the healer of the team, she enjoyed pretty decent benefits, which was why Ning Xi was able to leave her there without too much worry.
"Iâm sorry, Annie, Iâm not sure if First Senior Brother has informed you about my condition but I canât go back now." Although cruel, Ning Xi went straight to the point.
Annie put the cup down and held Ning Xiâs hand gently. "Why? Is it because of that man? Is what Bro Ye said true? Are you in a relationship with that man?"
"Yes." Ning Xi was not going to lie.
Annie felt nervous and she quickly said, "Bro Xi, Iâve investigated that man. He isnât as simple as he looks on the surface. Do you know how many under table deals he's made to get to where he is today? You might think that the Boss is scary but this man is worse than Satan! If you see his true colorsâ¦"
Ning Xi sighed and interrupted Annie, "Which person in power has never made any sacrifices before? Annie, Iâm not a saint. Iâm fine as long as heâs good to me."
It would be impossible for the enormous Lu Corporation with businesses all over the world to be pure.
Moreover, Lu Tingxiao had even accepted the few years she had been in America, sohow could she reject him because of this?
Annie was devastated by Ning Xiâs reply and she held her hand even tighter. "Bro Xi, youâve been totally charmed by him! That man has other bad intentions!"
Ning Xi laughed. "Annie, I donât have anything for him to get from me!"
"How could you say so!? Youâ¦you have your beauty!" Annie insisted.
"It should be I whoâs after his beauty!" Ning Xi chuckled.
"I seeâ¦hey! Stop changing the topic! I was almost thrown off course!" Annie complained.
From the information she had gathered, the only thing she recognizedâ¦was that the man was actually pretty good-looking. No wonder Bro Xi had fallen for him.
Annie was thinking really hard before she continued, "If you like his looks, I can find people whoâre better-looking than him! To be honest, if our Boss weren't so weird, he looks really cool when heâs normal! No, I mean super cool!"
Ning Xi raised her eyebrows. "Is he ever normal though?"
"â¦no!" Annie cried even harder.
Poor childâ¦
Ning Xi patted her back and gave her a few pieces of tissue. "Alright, stop worrying about me anymore. I know what to do."
After a long while of sobbing, Annie suddenly remembered something. "Yes! Yes! I remember! Bro Xi! That man has a child! Heâs five years old! A five-year-old child!"
"I know."
"Then, you stillâ¦:"
"That child is pretty cute."
