Chapter 122: But I’m Worried About You
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Li Zhenting deliberately wore a stern expression and gave Ding Ding a sharp look.
This kid was acting all high and mighty just because Shen Ning was around.
But what Shen Ning said was correct; children nowadays had weaker digestive systems, so eating smaller, more frequent meals was the right approach.
After breakfast, Shen Ning began to tidy up her things.
Suddenly, her phone rang.
She answered it.
It was Wan Zhengping on the line.
“Ms. Shen, great news! The commercial bank has agreed to provide us with a loan, and our financial problems are solved,” Wan Zhengping’s voice was filled with excitement.
“Really?” Shen Ning’s spirits lifted, and she felt energized.
“Of course it’s true,” Wan Zhengping chuckled. With Li Zhenting here, even a loan of 500 million wouldn’t be a problem. “Gu Qi has a good credit rating, and after I had a chat with their manager, they agreed. They even promised us a low-interest loan.”
“That’s fantastic! Notify Manager Yan immediately, and let’s start production as soon as possible. We must turn a profit within three months,” Shen Ning stood tall and confident.
This was the best news she had received in a long time.
“Alright, Ms. Shen, I’ll take care of it right away,” Wan Zhengping replied before hanging up.
Shen Ning held her phone, a smile playing on her lips.
As long as Gu Qi’s perfume entered the market, making money was just a matter of time.
She looked up and met Li Zhenting’s gaze.
He was looking at her with faint eyes.
“Mr. Li, aren’t you leaving yet?” She asked, a hint of amusement in her smile due to her happiness.
“Where to?” His magnetic voice was warm.
“To work, Mr. Li. Doesn’t the CEO of the Li Group need to work?” She retorted.
Li Zhenting lowered his gaze slightly. “The child is seriously ill. I’ll stay with him for a couple of days. The company has someone to manage it.”
Shen Ning was stunned.
He was going to stay with the child for two days, here?
That meant she had been here with him for two days. It was an uncomfortable feeling.
“Um, Mr. Li, 1 can actually take care of Ding Ding myself. How about this? 1’11 look after him for the next two days, and then you can come and spend time with him for the following two days. That way, Ding Ding will have someone with him all the time. Isn’t that a good idea?” Shen Ning’s smile had a hint of cunning.
As long as she could avoid being alone with him in the same space, it would be fine!
But Li Zhenting’s face grew stern. He suddenly leaned forward and whispered in her ear, “Well, that’s fine, but I don’t trust you.”
“You…” Shen Ning couldn’t help but laugh.
“Alright, do whatever you want. I just need to fulfill my responsibility,” Li Zhenting said.
Shen Ning lowered her head and stopped engaging with him.
“Daddy, Auntie, 1 want to play a game.” Ding Ding, with his small stature but a clever mind, noticed that his parents weren’t being affectionate, which he didn’t like. He enjoyed seeing his mommy and daddy together, and he liked seeing them happy. So, he came up with an idea and spoke in his childish voice. “What game?” Shen Ning wasn’t sure what he was planning, but she quickly smiled and looked up.
Li Zhenting’s gaze also turned to him.
“Let’s play a card game. We can compare sizes, and the loser has to give money. If we don’t have money, then we have to kiss.” Ding Ding held his round face in his little hands and blinked his eyes.
Shen Ning immediately shook her head upon hearing the words ‘money’ and ‘kiss’. “That’s not a good game. You’re sick, and you should rest properly. Don’t play games; it’ll be tiring.”
“No, Auntie, 1 want to play,” Ding Ding started to act cute.
Shen Ning turned her eyes toward Li Zhenting, convinced that he wouldn’t agree to play with her given his aversion to her.
Who knows…
“What are you afraid of?” he asked, smiling ambiguously. It’s just playing with the child. You won’t lose much. Maybe you’ll even win and make a fortune.”
Shen Ning rolled her eyes at this unreliable man..
