Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 1550 - 1539: Shaking Hands for Cooperation

"Country bumpkin, can't even recognize me. Guess his whole life he'll just be a security guard."Rose adjusted her awkward expression, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes before turning into a subtle indifference.

"Three meals a day are his only concern, how could he pursue fashion, art, entertainment... It's beneath me to argue with such a person."

Xu Xiaoqing said smugly, "Miss Rose, do you believe it now?"

Watching this arrogant woman get humbled was truly satisfying.

"What's there not to believe?"

Rose spoke calmly, "After all, everyone's on different levels, so it's normal for someone not to know me."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaoqing's smile instantly froze.

This was clearly saying Ning Fan was too low in status to know Rose.

"Xiaoqing."

Xu Ruolan gently called out, her expression shifting unpredictably as she looked at Xu Xiaoqing.

"Hmph!"

Xu Xiaoqing stomped her foot and walked away alone.

A hint of bitterness flashed in Xu Ruolan's eyes, then she apologized, "Miss Rose, Xiaoqing she..."

Rose waved her hand and smiled lightly, "Xiaoqing is still a naive and lively child, I wouldn't bother with her."

Not far off, Xu Xiaoqing heard this and nearly exploded with anger.

Still a bit baffled, Ning Fan immediately said, "President Xu, can we leave now?"

He was already too lazy to listen to such nonsense, especially when the speaker was a self-absorbed woman.

Noticing the curious onlookers around, Xu Ruolan smiled, "Miss Rose, shall we head to the hotel?"

"Sure."

Rose nodded, her gaze briefly sweeping over Ning Fan before speaking softly,

"Since my itinerary in Zhonghai is to be managed by your company and my bodyguard team. But they are two separate teams, there might be some unfamiliarity. William!"

"Miss Rose, please speak."

"Reintroduce yourself to Mr. Ning. From now on, you must cooperate well, don't disappoint me."

Rose especially emphasized her tone at the end of the sentence.

The towering man grinned savagely, baring his teeth as he said, "Manager Ning, nice to meet you."

With that, William stretched out an arm as thick as Ning Fan's thigh and a giant palm as big as a fan.

"Haha!"

Seeing this, Ning Fan's expression turned peculiar, he shook his head with a laugh.

Such crude physical contests, he had not seen in a long time, encountering them now had a certain novelty.

"A brute who only knows brute strength. I shall teach you a good lesson this time."

Ning Fan's eyes chilled as he extended his slender arm.

Just then, Xu Ruolan suddenly called out, "Ning Fan..."

"Miss Xu, what do you mean by this?"

Rose feigned ignorance, asking softly, "Can they not even get to know each other?"

Noticing the teasing glint in Rose's eyes, Xu Ruolan calmly replied, "Of course they can."

At this moment, Xu Ruolan finally understood Xu Xiaoqing's feelings, this woman is truly insufferable.

Rose's arrogant and flamboyant personality, Xu Ruolan knew and could understand it.

After all, given Rose's status, this could be considered modest.

But when this arrogance turned into conceit, even with Xu Ruolan's gentle demeanor, she could hardly bear it.

On the surface, it was a gesture for the two to shake hands and cooperate, but secretly it was intended to embarrass Ning Fan.

Such a crude plot, performed in front of Xu Ruolan, was simply laughable.

What rendered Xu Ruolan speechless was that Rose actually thought she was afraid.

Little did she know, Xu Ruolan was worried Ning Fan might be too harsh, which is why she spoke up.

Yet, before the words were finished, Rose interrupted her.

Despite this, Xu Ruolan's eyes still looked at Ning Fan, hoping he would show some restraint.

"Never mind, I should give my wife some face."

Ning Fan sighed to himself, casually extending his hand, "Come on."

Seeing this, Rose's eyes widened in anticipation of the impending scene.

Unbeknownst to her, the sisters of the Xu Family, had the same teasing glint in their eyes.

When it came to hand-to-hand combat ability, Xu Xiaoqing alone could take down Rose's bodyguard team within minutes.

Let alone Ning Fan.

In the sisters' eyes, such provocation was simply reckless.

A cruel glint flashed in William's eyes as his fingers closed together like iron clamps. Then the grin on his face gradually froze.

No screams, no begging for mercy, not even flushed cheeks or sweating,

Seeing this, Rose thought William hadn't understood her meaning and immediately spoke out, "William, where's your enthusiasm? Don't neglect our Eastern friend."

Upon hearing this, William showed a wry smile but couldn't voice his thoughts.

"Could this guy have a mechanical prosthetic hand?"

Considering this, William immediately dismissed it, even if it were true, with his grip strength he could crush it out of shape.

Now, William was using all his might but to no avail.

The seemingly slender palm had hardness comparable to diamonds.

Upon hearing this, Ning Fan's eyes cooled, and he said aloud, "Being too enthusiastic sometimes isn't good either."

With the voice falling, his fingers clenched.

In William's scream, Rose looked at Ning Fan as if she had seen a ghost.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoqing grinned devilishly, "Mr. William, aren't we Huaxia people very enthusiastic?"

William didn't respond, his eyes filled with horror as he looked at his right hand, with five blue and purple marks on it,

In addition, he felt his finger bones crack,

With William's toughness, he didn't mind the slight pain from the fractured bones.

"How is this possible!"

Looking at Ning Fan's hand, as delicate as a woman's, William began to question existence.

Watching the silent scene, Xu Ruolan held back the laughter in her heart, chuckling as she said, "Miss Rose, let's go."

She knew Ning Fan had gone easy, otherwise, William's outcome would not be so.

"Let's go!"

Rose felt instantly tasteless, she wasn't stupid, of course, she understood the meaning behind William's scream.

In the VIP parking lot, Rose's bodyguard insisted on taking over driving duties.

According to them, they wouldn't put their lives in others' hands.

"Speaking of life safety, not just Ning Fan, even I could take on all of you with one hand."

Xu Xiaoqing was very displeased with such a request, but Xu Ruolan had already agreed, despite dissatisfaction, she could only keep it to herself.

Counting the bodyguards, assistants, and others on-site, ten cars couldn't fit everyone.

This meant the ten carriers had completed their mission.

"You're off today, make your own way back, the company will reimburse travel expenses."

After telling the group, Ning Fan grabbed a car under Xu Xiaoqing's urging gaze.

Xu Xiaoqing softly said, "Brother-in-law, let's go first."

"But..."

"Sister needs to accompany Rose, do you want others to ride in our car?"

After not seeing Ning Fan for so many days, the long-missed Xu Xiaoqing felt nearly lovesick.
