Ning Xue woke up the next morning, .

She opened her eyes and saw a familiar shadow on the curtain.

“You can come in.”

“You’re awake!”

Jiang Sheng pushed the door open and walked in.

Ning Xue looked at Jiang Sheng and said gratefully, “Yes, I’m awake. Thank you!”

Jiang Sheng smiled and said, “You’re welcome. I am glad you’re okay.”

Ning Xue looked at Jiang Sheng and said, “We don’t really know each other. You don’t have to be so nice to me.”

Jiang Sheng looked confused and said, “I don’t think I’m Too nice to you?”

Ning Xue doesn’t know what to say. “…”

“Don’t worry about it. It’s nothing. Besides, I think it’s worth it.”

Seeing that Ning Xue still didn’t say anytthing, Jiang Sheng felt a little awkward, “By the way, I still don’t know your name.”

“My family name is Ning, Ning Xue.”

Jiang Sheng had angular eyebrows. When he smiled, he looked very handsome. His voice was deep and pleasant, “That’s a very nice name.”

Ning Xue smiled slightly and said, “Thank you.”

Jiang Sheng looked at Ning Xue and said, “You’re welcome. Are You Hungry? I’ll let my helper make some porridge.”

Not long after, the helper came in with porridge.

Ning Xue reached out and took the bowl from her.

“Do you feel a little better?”

“Yes, I feel pretty good now.”

When Ning Xue was eating the porridge, the coldness on her face went away. Clearly Ning Xue was a cold beauty, but somehow she could make Jiang Sheng smile.

So adorable.

After the two of them finished the porridge, Jiang Sheng cleaned up the dishes.

Ning Xue started reading the newspaper.

This newspaper was sent to Jiang Sheng’s room this morning, so it was the latest.

After reading the newspaper, she couldn’t help but smile.

“These reporters are pretty good.”

Jiang Sheng echoed.

“Yeah, as expected of a big media outlet. It’s really not something ordinary people can compare to. But this article is pretty good. I think many people will buy it.”

Ning Xue looked at Jiang Sheng. She knew Jiang Sheng was behind it, but she didn’t want to ask him.

They both seemed to have secrets.

Ning Xue smiled and said, “By the way, Don’t you have to go to work?”

Jiang Sheng saw the confusion in Ning Xue’s eyes and smiled. “I’m an actor. I don’t have any scenes to shoot today, so I might as well stay at home.”

“Yeah, judging by your looks, I am not surprised.”

Jiang Sheng’s eyes lit up. “Are you saying I am good-looking?”

Ning Xue didn’t know why he reminded her of a big dog, especially now. He was really so cute.

Ning Xue coughed and said a little awkwardly, “Ahem, ahem, I guess so.”

Jiang Sheng said loudly, “Haha, then I’ll take it as a yes.”

Ning Xue nodded and didn’t say anything else. She just sat quietly in the chair.

“Take a rest. I’ll get my helper to wash the dishes.”

After he said that, Jiang Sheng left the room.

“Phew!”

After Jiang Sheng left the room, Ning Xue let out a long sigh.

Jiang Sheng’s gaze just now made her a little nervous.

And she didn’t know why she was nervous.

Maybe it was because Jiang Sheng treated her too well.

She could tell that he treated her a little differently.

This made Ning Xue very confused.

Could it just be that Jiang Sheng had saved her?

No, she didn’t believe it.

She must not think too much.

Ning Xue shook her head and got rid of the thoughts out of her mind. She needed time to recover.

She lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

Not long after, she slowly opened her eyes. A trace of coldness flashed across her eyes.

A top killer like herself would never allow herself to indulge in such minor things like falling in love with a man.

She was indeed grateful to Jiang Sheng for saving her.

The question was: how should pay him back?

This was another problem.

For the first time Ning Xue was bothered because she did not know what to do to thank someone.

She simply turned on her phone and searched for “Jiang Sheng”on Google.

One after another photos of the handsome man popped up. There were also many introductions about him on the internet.

She was engrossed by it. As she looked at the photos and introductions, Jiang Sheng’s face suddenly appeared in her mind.

“He looks familiar.”

She muttered to herself.

Jiang Sheng’s figure slowly surfaced in the depths of her heart, becoming clearer and clearer.

Then her phone rang; she got a call from Jack.

Ning Xue was a bit surprised. What’s he calling about? Wasn’t Michael already dead?

Why?

She pressed the answer button.

“Sister, I’m coming to New York soon..”
