Chapter 10 Suspecting Her Identity

Ning Shaochen watched as the woman walked off without any regard for him, but he couldn’t unleash his temper here. “Young Master Ning, it’s almost time, so we should be heading to the airport now.” It took Liu Xu much effort to make his voice sound normal. His speaking up eased the awkward atmosphere in the lobby, so subsequently, everyone chimed in their agreement. Seated in the car, Ning Shaochen looked at Liu Xu who was in the driver’s seat and threw the folder in his hand at him upon seeing his shoulders shaking. The folder, however, hit the steering wheel instead. “Just laugh if you want to.” He knew that today’s incident would definitely be a stain on his life. “Ha ha…” Without any restraint, Liu Xu started convulsing with laughter. “Ha ha… I say, how did you find it, Ning Shaochen, my buddy? This feeling doesn’t feel good, does it? Ha ha…” It was no wonder that he was rejoicing in Ning Shaochen’s misfortune, for they were classmates during junior high. Ever since the day he’d known him, Ning Shaochen had been revered by everyone, so he’d never seen him being ignored, and by a nanny at that. “You can get lost if you laugh anymore!” Liu Xu instantly clamped a hand over his mouth and made a zipping gesture. Deep within him, however, he felt even more curious about this nanny, Shen Beiyi, now. Just as they were going to head to the airport, Liu Xu suddenly received a call from their collaborator who said that there were some unforeseen circumstances, necessitating a rescheduling. “Shaochen, since we no longer have to go to the airport, why don’t we wait for your son’s nanny and give her a ride?” Liu Xu turned and asked Shao Ningchen for his opinion. “A taxi won’t be able to enter your community.” Ning Shaochen was still enraged, so he threw him a glare. “When did you become so kind? It’s her problem however she goes back. Drive!” He then turned to look out the window after saying that, only to see Shen Beiyi and Xia Yu walking out side by side. She was wearing a black and white checkered shirt and seemed to have changed her pants. The clothes were of good quality, and they made her appear much more vivacious. However, recalling the way she treated him earlier, Ning Shaochen closed his eyes, not sparing her another glance. After all, she was merely a nanny and wasn’t worthy of such concern from him. But… “Hey, I could never have guessed that your son’s nanny is acquainted with such a rich man who drives an Aston Martin… a global limited-edition one at that! Hmm, he’s also good-looking. What do you think their relationship is? The man seems to like her a lot. Look, he’s even opening the car door for her! Say, your son’s nanny is so plain. Could this man have an eyesight…” “Are you going to drive? If not, get out.” Ning Shaochen interrupted Liu Xu’s endless chatter as he grew even more enraged. Opening his eyes, he glanced at the car behind them, his gaze darkening. She’s a mere nanny, but she’s acquainted with such an affluent man. Furthermore, the man seemed to be very much interested in her. Judging from this, it wasn’t because of the money that she became a nanny at his house. And from her cold attitude toward me in contrast with her attitude toward that man, I’m certain that she isn’t interested in me either. When he thought of this, he felt inexplicably dejected. She said that she wasn’t worthy of him since he’s the crop of the cream among the tall, rich, and handsome, but she had no qualms when it came to this man? What a hypocrite! “Later, investigate who exactly this man is and what their relationship is,” Ning Shaochen ordered Liu Xu after ripping the tie off from around his neck hard. “Investigate him? Why? Do you want to get back at her after being ignored?” Ning Shaochen closed his eyes and ignored him. “In my opinion, it’s impossible that all the women in the world will be interested in you. Every man to his own; every individual has his or her own preferences. Yes, you’re wealthy and handsome, but she’s just not interested in you,” Lu Xiu went on by himself as he drove since he’d never miss such a golden opportunity to tease him. “Nonetheless, a mere nanny can’t compare to Miss Gao, so you don’t need to take it to heart. You’re lucky she’s not interested in you, no?” “I’m worried about my son. She’s not here for the money or me, so why do you think she came to take care of Ning Xiaoxi?” Ning Shaochen finally couldn’t take it anymore and cut off Liu Xu’s jabbering, his expression chilly. “You’re another one. Didn’t you say that her background is simple? Do you think a woman who’s acquainted with such a man could have a simple background?” Liu Xu went silent. Back then, he’d investigated her, and there were no red flags. However, Shaochen’s words made sense. How could a simple woman like her be acquainted with such a man who’s clearly from the upper echelons of society? “I got it. I’ll get to the bottom of it.”
