Chapter 9: I'm Yours Now
"Ah...!"
No matter how calm Nangong Bing tried to be, her usually cold and glamorous demeanor was almost completely gone at this moment.
Her fair face changed color dramatically.
She hurriedly picked up the bathrobe that had fallen to the ground and wrapped it around her delicate body.
Lin Zifeng was also stunned.
With a mischievous smile, he said, "Wife, your body really looks great."
"Great your grandpa!" Nangong Bing quickly ran towards her own room.
Seeing Nangong Bing leave, Lin Zifeng smiled faintly. The shocking scene just now truly made his blood surge.
It's just a pity it was so brief.
Shortly after, Nangong Bing, with furrowed brows and fully dressed, stormed out furiously.
Looking at her flawless, lightly powdered face filled with resentment, Lin Zifeng deliberately stared dreamily, "Wife, you really look good, just a bit too cold. How about a smile for me to see?"
By then, Nangong Bing was almost on the verge of exploding with anger. Seeing Lin Zifeng still sporting a giggly demeanor, she wished she could grab a knife and stab this beast.
"What exactly did you see just now?" Nangong Bing asked with a stern face, her eyes filled with intense murderous intent.
"Uh...! I didn't see anything, really," Lin Zifeng replied innocently, looking completely harmless.
"You better forget what you just saw, or be careful I'll break your third leg!" Nangong Bing almost spat these words out through her teeth.
Uh...! What a virtuous lady! Seems like it's going to be tough to conquer this chick. If I'm not careful, it's really going to be hard to protect my little buddy, Lin Zifeng thought, his eyes turning as he plotted silently.
"What are you moving your eyeballs for? Still thinking about something?" Nangong Bing gritted her teeth, glaring at Lin Zifeng, fearful he might actually blurt out the thing he saw earlier.
"No..., wife, I didn't see anything."
"Who's your wife! Keep your mouth shut," she retorted.
"Wife, don't you recognize your husband? We grew up together as childhood sweethearts. Remember when you used to flick my... awkward bits as a kid! And you even asked me what that thing was for."
Looking at Lin Zifeng's innocent and dumbfounded expression, Nangong Bing's proud nature almost made her want to strangle him.
"Shut your mouth! Who flicked your awkward parts when we were kids! You're such a scoundrel, I didn't even know you back then."
"Didn't flick? Hmm," Lin Zifeng pondered, "Even better then, maybe I remembered it wrong!"
"You...! Get out now! I don't want to see you!"
Nangong Bing almost roared with anger.
"Wife, but this is my home too, isn't it? Since when does a wife kick out her husband?"
"Fine! You won't leave, is that it?" Nangong Bing picked up her flashy gold iPhone, ready to make a call, when suddenly it seemed as if she remembered something.
No! This guy was brought here by my father; I can't just kick him out like this! If I irritate this rogue, I'm really afraid of what he might do. I wouldn't be able to explain to my father then.
But if I don't get rid of this cretin, my personal safety seems to be at risk. Looking at his lecherous demeanor, who knows what he might actually do to me.
No! I absolutely can't let him stay; I have to think of a way to make him leave on his own.
Nangong Bing clenched her teeth as she weighed her options.
So she asked, "How did you even get in?"
"Getting in was easy! But wow, wife, your house is really big! So grand! Ah, having a home feels so good," Lin Zifeng praised, his eyes scanning the room.
"I'm warning you one more time! Stop calling me your wife, we don't have anything to do with each other. OK!"
"Really nothing at all? Not even worth half a penny? Hehe."
Pfft...!
Your grandpa! Nangong Bing almost vomited blood. She simply couldn't imagine that there could be such a jerk in this world! Absolutely from Mars.
Nangong Bing bashfully half-covered her face, her skin smooth as fat, her face glowing like grease, and she fiercely glared at him.
"What exactly do you want? If you're here for money, name your price, I can give it to you," Nangong Bing said coldly, her arms crossed as she stared at Lin Zifeng.
"I don't need money! If I marry you, don't I have everything?" Lin Zifeng pulled out a cigarette, took a deep breath, his expression blissful.
It seems this guy is tough as nails, so much so that not even swords or arrows can pierce his thick skin!
"Honey, since you're so rich, why don't you just support me!"
"What!" Nangong Bing frowned and her pretty face blushed. "I support you!"
"Is there something wrong with a wife supporting her husband? I think it's quite nice."
Jackass, has he lost his mind, actually suggesting that I should support him! Has his brain gone bad?
Nangong Bing was so angry that the decoration on her chest momentarily became somewhat visible through her clothes! Even the Heavenly Silkworm buttons were imprinted between the grid of her outfit.
"Your brain has gone bad, hasn't it!"
"Then find me a job. Your family is rich and you're a CEO-level person. Can't you just give me some high-ranking minister or something? I'm just a country bumpkin, even if I am disadvantaged, I don't mind."
"Minister? High-ranking?" Nangong Bing was left utterly speechless by him.
Do you even know what kind of treatment and positions high-ranking ministers in a corporation get?
Just casually offering you a position? Do you really think my family runs a charity! You've got some nerve thinking that! It's always easy to get in but hard to get out.
"Look darling, your dad wanted me to help you manage the corporation, plus I'm your fiancé. You can't treat me so shabbily, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't save face, would you?"
Lin Zifeng wore a cheeky grin, acting as if he was the future CEO husband. He definitely didn't see himself as an outsider.
"Fine! You want to work at our company? Okay, no problem."
Suddenly, Nangong Bing's attitude changed, showing a warmth that was almost meticulous.
No matter how Lin Zifeng looked at her, he couldn't see her as benevolent; her smiling face seemed a bit sinister.
"Really?"
"No problem."
"As expected!"
"Why all this pointless talk? But you have to agree to one condition."
"What condition?"
Just as Lin Zifeng had suspected, this sudden change in expression was too abrupt and definitely hid a scheme.
"At the company, you cannot call me 'honey.' Not even a word! Act as if we have no relation whatsoever! Otherwise, don't even think about joining the company."
"This...! Honey, what are you playing at?" Lin Zifeng rubbed his chin in confusion.
"Do you agree or not?"
Lin Zifeng pondered briefly. Since he was idle every day and it was quite bothersome, why not just go to her company for some high-level management job, it would probably be less of a headache than staying at home.
"I agree. But what job will you give me?"
Seeing Lin Zifeng's excited expression, Nangong Bing felt a slight triumph inside.
Kid, you wanted a job, right? You wanted a high-level position, didn't you? Well, since you want to mess with me, Missy is going to make it unbearable for you! Let's see whose skills are better. Fight me! Hmph! You're still too green.
Nangong Bing crossed her arms, her face sporting a sly smile, her eyes gleaming with cunning and triumph.
Upon seeing Nangong Bing's evil-grinned face, Lin Zifeng felt a dread in his heart. Oh no. Could this CEO wife be planning to screw me over? She wouldn't make me clean bathrooms, would she? Now I'm really in for it.
"I'll give you a top-level position, hope you can cope."
"Top-level? Ok! No problem, but what department will I manage? Casually make me a general manager or something, I wouldn't mind," Lin Zifeng rubbed his hands together excitedly.
"You want to be a general manager?"
"What? Is there a problem with being a general manager?" Lin Zifeng looked at her blankly, as if managing wasn't a big deal.
"Janitor, take it or leave it." Nangong Bingbing's cold eyes showed a hint of cunning triumph.
"What? Jani-, janitor?"
Lin Zifeng sat up hastily, his eyes wide and staring at Nangong Bing, wondering if she had lost her mind? Was she actually making him a janitor? To compete with the company's janitors for a livelihood?
What kind of international joke is this?
Lin Zifeng spit out each word distinctly, his entire face turning pale...
