President Secretary Sweet Wife

Ding Ning served Gu Shengtang and Xiao Nian with rice, and sat down at the table:

"I'm sorry, I don't have any good things at home, so I can only make two simple dishes for you, don't be surprised."

Ding Ning's words were not entirely out of politeness, she knew very well the standard of Gu Shengtang's daily diet.

Although she has tried her best to make it rich, it is less than one-tenth of what he usually eats.

"Thank you, it looks very appetizing, it must be delicious." Gu Shengtang took a deep look at the woman across from him.

After removing the heavy glasses and dull suit, Ding Ning looked like a different person.

She is wearing a lavender gauze dress, the soft texture is in line with her gentle temperament.

Because she had to cook, she simply tied her long black hair into a ponytail, looking simple and lively.

This is her real appearance. It turns out that this woman lives behind a thick mask every day, hiding her gentle and peaceful appearance tightly.

Seeing that Gu Shengtang was looking at her, Ding Ning blushed. She gently touched her face with her hand, "What? Is there something dirty on my face?"

It was only then that Gu Shengtang realized that he had lost his composure. He turned his head to cover up, and said to Xiao Nian, "Good friend, it's thanks to you that I had such a sumptuous meal, thank you."

"Good friend?" Ding Ning looked at the two of them suspiciously.

Xiao Nian said happily, "Mom, Uncle Fang and I have decided to officially become good friends from today on."

Ding Ning smiled fondly, today was probably the happiest day in Xiao Nian's life, the corners of his eyes never let go.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's eat quickly." Ding Ning said, ready to move his chopsticks.

"Mom, what did you forget?" Xiao Nian blinked.

"what?"

"We haven't prayed yet."

Only then did Ding Ning know what Xiao Nian was talking about.

Ding Ning's parents were devout Christians when they were alive. Although Ding Ning did not believe in Christianity, he always kept the habit of giving thanks before eating.

Xiao Nian stretched out her hand, gently grabbed one of her mother's hands, and motioned her to pull Gu Shengtang.

"Xiao Nian!" Ding Ning looked distressed, "I have a guest today, so I don't want to be grateful."

"Why, Mom?" Xiao Nian was puzzled.

Seeing this, Gu Shengtang on the side said in a deep voice, "Since it's something we do every day, it's better to continue."

As he spoke, he couldn't help holding Ding Ning and Xiao Nian's hands.

At that moment, he suddenly had a very subtle feeling, as if there was a tiny electric current that was communicating and flowing between them through their held hands.

Ding Ning closed his eyes, feeling his slender palm being gently held by Gu Shengtang's generous big hand.

Just when everyone was concentrating on praying, she couldn't help but gently opened one eye, peeking at Gu Shengtang and Xiao Nian who closed their eyes, pious and grateful.

An indescribable sense of happiness instantly filled her heart.

How she wished that time would stop at this moment and never flow again.

She closed her eyes gently, and said silently in her heart, "Thank God, thank you for meeting me!"

The three happily finished their dinner, and Xiao Nian also talked about interesting things in the kindergarten, which made Ding Ning giggle, and Gu Shengtang who was at the side also listened with great interest.

Gu Shengtang ate more than ever for this meal. Ding Ning's dishes were cooked well, even though he had deliberately restrained himself, he still ate a bowl full of rice.

He was a little uncertain about whether he would still be used to the previous meals when he returned to Jiangzhou.

Ding Ning cleaned up the dishes, "You take a rest first, I'll wash the dishes."

Gu Shengtang also helped to put it away, "Why don't I do the washing, since I ate a big meal for free, leave the washing to me."

Ding Ning gave a meal, she never thought that she would still see Gu Shengtang actively washing the dishes in her lifetime, it was such a long time.

While he was in a daze, he suddenly heard a "dong dong dong" knock on the door.

She had no choice but to put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, "I'll take a look."

Opening the door, it was Li Zhao, the landlord's son who lived downstairs, standing outside the door.

The landlord, Aunt Niu, has never remarried since she lost her husband in her early years, and has lived with her son for most of her life alone.

However, Li Zhao did not learn well since he was a child. He dropped out of school in his teens to mix in the society.

When Ding Ning went downstairs to take out the trash, he ran into Li Zhao by chance, and he clung to him like a blowfly, knocking on Ding Ning's door whenever he had something to do.

Ding Ning knew that he had no good intentions, and usually would check through the cat's eyes before opening the door, but today, perhaps because Gu Shengtang was here, he relaxed his vigilance, and unexpectedly gave him an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"It's you? Yes... What's the matter?" Ding Ning shrank back involuntarily.

Li Zhao was smiling, and his lustful eyes stared directly at Ding Ning's chest with malicious intentions.

"It's time to collect the rent, and I'm here to collect the rent."

"Isn't Aunt Niu always collecting the rent? This month is not up yet."

"Hi! My mother's is mine, anyway, sooner or later, what does it matter if it's later?"

Ding Ning was right after thinking about it, "Then wait for me here, and I'll get it for you."

She turned around and was about to leave when Li Zhao reached out and grabbed her wrist.

"What are you going to do?" Ding Ning turned pale with shock.

"Ding Ning, it's really distressing for you to be a woman with a child. Is there anything broken in your house? May I fix it for you?" Li Zhao said, wanting to go inside.

"No need! Let me go, I'll get you rent." Ding Ning tried hard to free his wrist, but he didn't expect to be pinched tightly by Li Zhao.

His big rough hands stretched upwards along her soft wrists bit by bit, "Ding Ning, I have already told my mother that I will move here to live with you and your son, and the monthly rent will be waived." Yes, you have a husband, your son has a father, and you save on rent, which is a good thing for you that kills three birds with one stone!"

Ding Ning saw that he couldn't pull his hand for a long time, his face was flushed with anxiety, and he wanted to call for help, but he didn't want Gu Shengtang to see his embarrassment, he was so anxious that he was about to cry.

"Ding Ning, don't be so reserved anymore. You're not a big girl, and you don't have a man anyway. It's a waste of time. You might as well make do with me."

As Li Zhao spoke, his stinky mouth wanted to touch Ding Ning's face.

Before his stinky mouth approached, Li Zhao suddenly felt his eyes dim, and a figure flashed, followed by a sharp pain from the wrist where he was pinching Ding Ning.

Taking a closer look, it was a strange man who came out of the house and was holding his hand tightly.

The man's eyes were fierce, and his hands were very strong. As he continued to exert force, Li Zhao felt as if his wrist was about to be crushed.

"Ah! Who are you?" Li Zhao gasped, grinning.

"Do you dare to say what you just said again?"

Gu Shengtang's tone was murderous, "Who says she doesn't have a man?"

Li Zhao was immediately dumbfounded. He didn't expect that there was actually a man hiding in Ding Ning's house, and he was not easy to mess with at first glance.
