Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 1564 - 1553: Restless People

"Why?"Ning Fan was taken aback, then smiled and said, "You weren't really brainwashed by her, were you!"

"Of course not."

Xu Xiaoqing said coquettishly, then worriedly continued, "Rose is sick, I need to stay and take care of her."

"Sick?"

Ning Fan looked puzzled, "Is she up to some trick again?"

"No. I found that her body was alarmingly hot, and her personal doctor said it seemed to be an inflammation caused by an injury."

Saying this, Xu Xiaoqing muttered to herself, "She was fine last night, how did she get injured?"

"Uh... maybe she bumped into something somewhere."

Ning Fan looked embarrassed, he couldn't tell Xu Xiaoqing what happened last night.

Recalling last night's scene, Ning Fan realized he might have been a bit heavy-handed.

It was mainly because it felt so good that he lost control for a moment.

"Is she feeling better now?"

"Much better. The fever has subsided."

Xu Xiaoqing added, "So I can't leave right now. At least not until she recovers."

"Alright then. You stay here for now."

Xu Xiaoqing asked anxiously, "You won't blame me, will you?"

"Silly girl, why would I blame you."

Ning Fan rubbed Xu Xiaoqing's head, then smiled and said, "I'll head back to the company then."

"Okay!"

After seeing Ning Fan off, when Xu Xiaoqing returned to the room, she found Rose already awake, "Rose, the doctor said you have an injury-induced infection, how did you get hurt?"

"N-no injury anywhere."

Rose stammered in panic, then asked, "Where is he?"

Xu Xiaoqing was startled, then replied, "He just left."

"Hmph!"

Seeing Rose's unhappy face, Xu Xiaoqing said helplessly, "Ning Fan really isn't the kind of person you think he is."

"I know just what kind of person he is."

Recalling the shameful scene from yesterday, Rose wished she could shoot that hateful man.

Back at the company, Ning Fan felt as though he was reborn, finally free of Rose's unhappy face.

He thought the days ahead would be peaceful, but an unexpected situation arose.

That afternoon, Rose announced her visit to Huaxia and planned to hold a press conference.

"Wasn't she bedridden just now? How is she back on her feet? This woman is quite the actress, always in character."

While Ning Fan was complaining, the phone in the secretary's office rang in his office.

"My wife needs something from me."

Ning Fan immediately understood that Xu Ruolan had official business and had the secretary inform him.

"Manager Zhu, come with me to the president's office."

Walking through the bustling office area, the heads of the security department arrived at the president's office.

During the trip, Ning Fan also ran into Lan Kexin, and neither of them greeted the other; the young girl just gave a bright smile.

Throughout the walk, Zhu Xuetao seemed restless, "Manager Ning, I don't know what General Manager Xu wants with us, I'm really uneasy."

Though he held the manager title, the security department was directly under the human resources division according to Xu Corporation's administrative structure.

At Zhu Xuetao's level, he usually wouldn't meet directly with Xu Ruolan.

"I don't know either; the secretary just told us to come over."

"Is it because they're unhappy with our work, or..."

Seeing Zhu Xuetao's wild speculations, Ning Fan smiled and said, "Don't worry. I can't promise it's good news, but it's definitely not bad."

"Why?"

"Because someone told me."

"Who?"

Ning Fan gave a mysterious smile, "Take a guess."

It was none other than Lan Kexin, whom Ning Fan had just seen.

Though she hadn't said a word, her smile conveyed that everything was calm, telling Ning Fan not to worry.

"Kexin is really so sweet."

Ning Fan felt a wave of affection.

It was because Lan Kexin knew nothing that her caring gesture touched Ning Fan even more.

In Xu Ruolan's office, Ning Fan sat properly, not engaging in any flirtations or glances.

Besides Zhu Xuetao, there were other high-level managers at the meeting.

After the meeting ended, Zhu Xuetao finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I was almost scared to death; I thought it was a meeting to criticize me. Luckily it wasn't!"

Ning Fan immediately doused the moment with cold water, "Lucky? If anything happens to Rose, prepare to resign and leave."

Hearing this, Zhu Xuetao's heart sank, "What should we do? We're not a professional security company, how can we take on this responsibility?"

"That woman really knows how to cause trouble."

Ning Fan sighed, thinking that after last night, she'd lay low for a while, but now there's a new issue.

That same afternoon, Rose's spokesperson announced her visit to Huaxia, along with her collaboration with Xu Corporation.

Xu Corporation also announced that in the next five days, they would organize a concert, a fan meeting, and other performances for Rose.

This plan ensured her upcoming schedule's safety.

As the inviting party, Xu Corporation naturally had to take full responsibility.

But the bodyguards Rose brought were far from enough.

Thus, the burden fell on Xu Corporation's security department.

This was why Xu Ruolan had called the meeting.

"Manager Ning, do you have any ideas?"

"There's no need to worry too much. Rose has her own bodyguards; we'll mainly maintain the external scene and manage any potential disturbances."

Zhu Xuetao sighed in relief, "That makes me feel much better."

"That's true, but we must remain vigilant. Mishandling the situation might allow crazy fans to overwhelm us."

"Is she really that famous?"

Hearing this, Ning Fan felt like meeting a kindred spirit, but then his mouth twitched wryly as he said, "Just search online and see for yourself."

Zhu Xuetao half-believed and entered Rose's name into the search bar, immediately overwhelmed by the flood of news.

Front page headlines, trending topics, and search indexes—all about Elena Rose's visit to Huaxia, dominating the entire entertainment scene.

As one individual, she outshone the stars.

Like a sudden spring breeze, hundreds and thousands of pear trees blossomed overnight.

Countless fan clubs and fan groups seemed to pop up online suddenly,

not only domestically but even foreign fans expressed their intent to visit Huaxia for Rose's concert.

One can imagine how lively Zhonghai will be in the upcoming five days.

Seeing the flood of red in the news, Zhu Xuetao turned pale and said, "I'll inform the team to meet right away."

This afternoon, Rose will officially hold a press conference, and the concert is the night after tomorrow.

The security team has limited time, and without proper preparation, the consequences will be dire.
