Nina Norris couldn’t help but laugh speechlessly, "Senior, you really have thirty-six unique tricks for showing off your love life, don’t you?"
Kay Forrest chuckled, "I didn’t say that just to flaunt my relationship, I ant it sincerely."
"It’s exactly that sincerity that makes feel like it’s a hundred percent flaunt."
Kay Forrest chuckled again, "You used to cling around Chenge every day in front of , flaunting your love too."
Nina Norris rolled her eyes, "Can we not bring up Chenge?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jane Quinlan ca out from the kitchen with a pot of soup and placed it on the table.
As the lid was lifted, a waft of delicious aroma spread out and Nina exclaid, "Wow, why does it sll so good?"
Kay Forrest proudly said, "Tell , with a woman who can cook like this daily by my side, why would I think about anyone else?"
Jane Quinlan pouted, "Oh, so you still have thoughts of considering others? Well, I won’t cook for you anymore, go think about them then."
Kay Forrest laughed out loud, "Look at you, didn’t you realize I was just teasing Nina?"
Nina Norris rolled her eyes in speechlessness, "After all this ti, it turns out I’m the biggest single dog suffering from seeing you lovebirds, how pitiful."
Jane Quinlan sat next to Kay Forrest and started serving soup while asking, "Nina, don’t you have a girlfriend? It doesn’t make sense, you are so handso."
"I used to have one, now I don’t. Sister-in-law, if you know any suitable candidates, introduce one to ."
Jane Quinlan turned to look at Kay Forrest, "Really or not really?"
"Actually not, but definitely there is soone on my mind."
Jane Quinlan pouted, "Then I just heard you guys ntion Chenge... who is Chenge?"
Nina Norris covered his eyes, "Sister-in-law, you have sharp ears, suddenly I feel like I ca here to be teased."
Kay Forrest laughed loudly, "Jane just ntioned a na, I didn’t hear her teasing you at all."
He then told Jane Quinlan, "Chenge is his ex-girlfriend."
"Oh, it’s past tense now huh, looks like there really isn’t a girlfriend. But why break up? Was it because of lack of love?"
"Personality differences."
After Jane Quinlan finished serving everyone soup, she nodded, "It seems the entire world’s romantic breakups boil down to three reasons: personality differences, incompatible family views, or loss of love."
Kay Forrest smirked, "Insightful."
He casually added, "There’s also a fourth reason, ’I love you, but you have no money, so we can’t be together.’"
Jane Quinlan nodded, laughing, "Exactly, I probably overlooked this point because I married a rich man. It’s interesting how soone like you, who has never been rejected for that reason, would think of it. Kudos to you."
"Could it be you were dumped for these three reasons above which is why you have such a deep understanding?"
Jane Quinlan glared at him, "My love life isn’t as colorful as you think."
"I thought so," he ruffled her hair, "Let’s eat, let’s drop this topic that makes Nina always want to go crazy."
Nina Norris sighed, "Finally you two decided to stop discussing it. If you continued, I really was planning to leave."
"Co on, let’s not talk about these sad things. Nina, eat more, don’t be shy."
Nina Norris nodded, and Jane Quinlan turned to Kay Forrest, "Did you bring Nina back from overseas?"
"He is now in charge of one of my companies overseas, alongside another junior of mine. I’m in desperate need of people here, so I asked who was willing to co back and help , and he volunteered."
"Ah? From a manager to an assistant, Nina, don’t you feel wronged?"
Nina Norris shook his head, "No, my mood has been off lately; I needed a change."
"So, even n need ti to heal from a heartbreak."
Nina Norris without a word: "Sister-in-law, how did we end up back on this topic?"
"Wasn’t it you who brought it back? Was it ?"
Jane Quinlan looked innocently at Kay Forrest, "Did I bring it back?"
Kay Forrest affectionately ruffled her hair, "No, it’s not you, he accidentally brought it back himself."
Jane Quinlan laughed, "I thought so, I am a considerate woman."
Nina Norris speechless, is this what a considerate woman would say? Why does he only sense a scheming undertone?
As expected, birds of a feather flock together.
Kay Forrest raised his glass to Nina Norris, "Don’t worry, I won’t make you just an assistant for underutilizing your skills. I primarily want you to help share the workload. The actual assistant will still have to be chosen from within the company. When the ti cos, you can pick one you like from the assistant office. As you know, Jane here is pregnant."
After a while, I might need to spend so focused ti with her.
You’ll have to take over the major responsibilities at Grayson Group for a while."
Nina Norris half grimaced, "I thought I was coming back for a vacation, turns out it’s more of a sentence."
Kay Forrest smirked mischievously, "So other ti I’ll take you to et my dad."
"Good, I’ve wanted to et your uncle for a while now, I need to see for myself what kind of impressive person could have raised soone as unique as you."
The dinner was extrely enjoyable, Nina was a bit tipsy, and seeing him slightly dazed, Kay directly let him stay in the guest room at his ho.
Seeing how well Kay treated Nina, Jane Quinlan really believed that they were close buddies.
Otherwise, who would let a man stay overnight at their ho?
After Nina went to sleep, Jane also crawled back into her covers, nestling into Kay’s arms.
"This Nina guy seems alright."
"Do you know how we t?" Kay said, embracing her from the side.
Jane Quinlan shook her head, "Wasn’t I fickle back then? In my university days, I dated a woman, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed Arican.
It just so happened, that Arican’s father was sowhat acquainted with Nina’s grandfather, and they knew each other since they were young.
Just like that, we beca acquainted after eating a al together.
Actually, at that ti, we didn’t really like each other.
Nina later told that he knew I wasn’t serious about dating his friend when he saw my nonchalant deanor.
If I truly loved that woman, I would have been honest and serious when eting her friends.
But in reality, I was showing off and didn’t take that group seriously at all that day.
It wasn’t long before I broke up with that woman.
Usually, I would give so money to the woman when we break up, and this ti was no exception.
I gave her so money.
I thought that was the end of it and there wouldn’t be any need to stay connected.
Unexpectedly, that woman told my younger schoolmate about our breakup.
He was in the pri of his youth, full of vigor, and when his friend suffered an indignity, he represented justice and ca to settle the score with ."
Jane Quinlan giggled, "You weren’t beaten up, were you?"
"Do I look that cowardly?"
"Aren’t heroes ant to respect each other after a fight? If he didn’t beat you up, does that an you beat him?"
Kay Forrest burst into laughter, "You woman, do you think about anything other than fighting?"
"What else?"
Kay Forrest smirked mischievously, "Originally, he wanted to fight, but I was annoyed by the idea of fighting, so I suggested we decide the winner through intellectual ans instead."
"Intellectual ans? Quick, tell , I’m so curious."
"Actually, it was quite simple. I told him that resolving issues with physical force was the most foolish thod, and asked if he’d be interested in competing on response ti.
We competed in creating a ga program to see who could complete it the fastest.
Moreover, it had to be handwritten on paper without any corrections, and he could set the problem.
Actually, letting him set the problem was sowhat humiliating for him.
People with hero complexes generally have stronger egos.
He definitely couldn’t endure such humiliation from others.
So at that mont, he said, ’You set the problem.’
I wasn’t so fussy, so I set the problem and naturally won against him.
He admitted his loss honestly, and because he was impressed by my professional knowledge, he beca friends with ."
"So you did well in your studies?"
Kay Forrest smirked mischievously, "So-so, I can’t compare to him. The first ti we t I knew he was a genius in ga developnt at our school, with top-notch programming skills.
I couldn’t compete with him technically, so I resorted to being sneaky.
Actually, the problem I set during our competition was a program I was currently exploring.
Having revised it countless tis, I had it morized.
It was easy to win against him, wasn’t it?
When you think about it, I did outsmart Nina, but I still feel it was quite worth it."
After hearing Kay’s explanation, Jane Quinlan wordlessly rolled her eyes at him. Could anyone really use such a thod to make friends? In the entire Anchester, who could compare to this guy’s cunning?
She was truly speechless.
