Hou Ze had just found traces of the secretary when he got the news that the secretary had been dredged from the river.
Hou Ze cursed in anger.
"Damn it, just one step away! The task the boss assigned to , I haven’t completed it. I have no face to see the boss now." Hou Ze’s body went limp, sinking into the chair without any form.
Nan Shan, who was having breakfast, saw his miserable look and peeled an egg for him.
"Master said, people need food like iron and steel; you can’t go without eating. No matter what, you have to eat sothing."
Hou Ze: "..."
He didn’t feel like eating at all.
"Look at , can I even eat? You’re asking for my life here."
"Master should have a backup plan." Nan Shan said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Hou Ze imdiately perked up and looked at Nan Shan eagerly, as if he were seeing a genius.
"What did the boss tell you? Why didn’t I hear her say any of this?" Hou Ze’s mood was sowhat bleak.
How can the boss still keep this from her?
"Nan Shan, when did the boss tell you about these things? Why didn’t she tell ? I’m quite anxious, you know."
Hou Ze pointed at his dark circles: "See, fine lines have appeared under my eyes. Not only that, my eye bags make look old and haggard, lowering my attractiveness. How can I get a wife in the future?"
Nan Shan: "But you don’t even have a girlfriend."
Hou Ze: "..."
This unlucky kid, stabbing him right in the heart!
"Nan Shan, are we still good brothers? How can you hurt like this? Although I don’t have a girlfriend now, I definitely will have one in the future!"
He can’t be lonely forever!
Nan Shan: "Oh."
Hou Ze: ??
What does "oh" an?
Does he not believe he can find a partner?
Why can’t this kid believe in him a little?
Is it so difficult to give a little trust?
"Nan Shan, what ssage did the boss relay to you? Why not tell and let hear it?"
Nan Shan: "Master didn’t say anything to ."
Hou Ze: ??
He couldn’t eat his breakfast.
"Are you just ssing with ? The boss didn’t say anything to you, yet you told all this? You even said the boss will definitely have a follow-up plan, how can you be so confident?"
"Because I understand master."
Hou Ze: "..."
Well, Hou Ze drove the conversation to a standstill.
"Look at you, talking to you is so exhausting. You eat breakfast by yourself, I’ll go ask the boss directly." He must confess and take responsibility.
Nan Shan quickly stood up, eager and impatient: "I’ll go with you."
"Don’t make things worse, stay ho and watch TV."
"I want to go with you; I have things to discuss with master." Nan Shan said seriously.
If that’s the case, then let’s go together.
...
Nan Qiao was having morning tea with Tang Helin.
When Hou Ze and Nan Shan arrived, Tang Helin’s gaze locked onto Nan Shan, not moving away, as if he had many things to say to him.
Nan Shan felt inexplicably guilty; he left without saying goodbye, causing quite a bit of trouble for the old man.
"Boss, I’ve co to confess my mistakes." Hou Ze said, wracked with guilt.
Nan Qiao: "No worries, it’s not your fault; it’s all because the enemies are too cunning."
Hou Ze was moved to tears. He really had a great boss!
Even if he couldn’t get things done, the boss wouldn’t punish him; instead, she comforted him.
"Have you eaten breakfast yet? If not, sit down and have so with us."
Nan Shan quickly sat down: "I haven’t eaten."
Hou Ze: ??
The person who ate five buns and two eggs this morning wasn’t Nan Shan, was it a ghost?
Hou Ze didn’t expose Nan Shan, sitting beside him, analyzing his belly with his eyes.
Was that breakfast not food, but just snacks for his teeth?
Tang Helin finished eating and wiped his mouth.
"Nan Shan, give your hand, let check your pulse and see how your health is."
Nan Shan obediently extended his hand forward without hesitation.
Tang Helin checked his pulse, while Nan Qiao and Hou Ze remained motionless.
Although Tang Helin wouldn’t be affected by such gestures, Nan Qiao and Hou Ze both chose to stay silent, afraid to disturb him; it’s the basic respect.
After a while, Tang Helin couldn’t alleviate his expression filled with doubt.
He looked at Nan Shan’s wrist and then at his own hand, checking Nan Shan’s pulse again.
Nan Shan lowered his voice and asked, "Master, is there any situation?"
Hou Ze’s heart was also raised.
Why did he feel that Nan Shan had so incurable disease?
Tang Helin’s expression was too solemn, quite frightening, how could it not be so scary?
Tang Helin released his hand: "Don’t worry, Nan Shan’s situation is fine, I’m just curious about what dicine he took, what kind of treatnt he received, that allowed him to recover so quickly; a dical miracle."
Tang Helin and Nan Qiao both worked hard to treat him, but there was no sign of Nan Shan’s recovery.
Skeptical, Tang Helin wondered if Nan Shan had t soone?
Or had taken so dication?
Since Nan Shan didn’t say, he wouldn’t rashly investigate, to avoid stirring up trouble.
He would remind Nan Qiao privately about this.
Nan Shan, unfazed, remained relaxed as usual, both in mind and body.
"I am able to recover, thanks to the master’s persistent treatnt, leading to my current normal state."
Hou Ze: "That’s true; the boss has always given her all for you. Nan Shan, you must repay your master well in the future."
Nan Shan: "..."
He wasn’t Nan Qiao’s son, did Hou Ze only finish elentary school?
Does he know how to speak?
After breakfast, Hou Ze took Nan Shan away.
Tang Helin and Nan Qiao stayed sitting without moving.
Watching them leave completely, Nan Qiao spoke up: "Master, do you have sothing to tell ?"
Tang Helin replied with a smile: "Truly my pupil, you can understand my aning with just a glance."
"Master, you have taught attentively for years; if I couldn’t grasp this insight, how would I be worthy of being your disciple, wouldn’t that sha you?"
Listening to these words, Tang Helin felt much relieved.
"Qiaoqiao, I want to talk to you about sothing. I think Nan Shan’s recovery wasn’t just about luck."
Nan Qiao: "Master, do you suspect he’s connected with soone, receiving treatnt?"
"I wouldn’t rule out that possibility. Qiaoqiao, you should stay vigilant; this disciple of yours is extraordinary. What future holds, neither of us can say."
Nan Qiao rembered Tang Helin’s words.
"Master, rest assured; I will remain cautious. Nan Shan lives together with Hou Ze and Zheng Qinnian and occasionally ets with . I’ll have them pay attention and stay alert. If Nan Shan shows any unusual behavior, I’ll talk to him to understand his thoughts."
Tang Helin: "You must also protect yourself, don’t just focus on others."
Nan Qiao: "Master, I know."
With other matters to attend to, Nan Qiao bid farewell to Tang Helin and left.
Tang Helin didn’t get up, continuing to sip tea.
Soon after, Li Yehan arrived alone.
