Chapter 354: Chapter 354: It Seems Something Happened to My Wife

The Ning Group’s office building.

Lin Fan walked through the main entrance.

He glanced at the receptionist’s desk.

There stood Annie, the receptionist, pursing her lips.

Clearly, she was signaling him with her eyes.

It seemed she had some secret to share.

Understanding, Lin Fan nodded in agreement.

He turned toward a side corridor.

This was a direct passage to the internal restroom.

It was rarely frequented.

"Master!"

Annie, who had found an excuse to come over, immediately wrapped her arms around Lin Fan’s waist.

The dependence, was the kind that wished to press herself entirely against him.

"You little rascal, working overtime at night and still coming to work during the day, isn’t it too exhausting?"

Lin Fan said with a smile, pinching her nose.

As his undercover informant, their affection stemmed more from physical interaction.

"I come to work just to see you, Master, but who knew you wouldn’t visit the company for so long, leaving me in such hardship waiting for you, the days without seeing Master, I’m in so much pain."

Annie clung tightly to Lin Fan.

Enjoying that brief moment of peace.

"Here I am. Can’t resist playing anymore?"

Lin Fan looked at Annie with a smile.

This girl’s preferences were truly not for everyone to accept.

"I want to, but not today, because that old creep Ning Bingcai has been hurrying me several times to start working at his new company. I’ve been stalling with excuses, and now that I’ve seen you, Master, I’m out of mood. In a bit, I’ll go deal with my resignation, then head to Ning Bingcai’s company to gather information for you."

Annie looked up at him, her round face full of admiration.

"This is getting too dangerous because of foreign forces getting involved, you shouldn’t get mixed up in it. After all, the intelligence you’ve gathered before is already very valuable. Why don’t you take this money, go enjoy a nice trip, and leave the rest to me? When you come back, we’ll have a good time, and I’ll take you to places with even more people."

Lin Fan patted her on the head.

Although there was no love between them, just bodily pleasure,

he didn’t want her, an ordinary person, to get involved in what was coming up.

This matter was related to the fate of the nation and countless lives.

The power of the operatives involved was beyond imagination.

A single slip-up could mean a death with nowhere to lay one’s body.

"Alright!"

Hearing Lin Fan’s words, Annie reluctantly nodded.

However, with a sly look, she tugged at Lin Fan, "By the way, in this week you haven’t been to the office, someone mysterious has been sending flowers to Mr. Ning, and a lot of them every day. Now the company is buzzing with rumors that some mysterious rich person has taken a liking to Mr. Ning."

"Someone mysterious sending flowers?"

Lin Fan rubbed his nose.

No wonder as soon as he walked into the lobby, he could smell the scent of roses.

To fill such a large lobby with the fragrance of flowers,

the quantity must be substantial.

"Yes, every morning, a large batch of fresh flowers is delivered, but no name is left from start to finish, so Master, you better step up your game, or Mr. Ning might just be snatched away by someone else."

Annie said with a mischievous smile, looking at Lin Fan.

"You little girl, you sure know a lot."

Lin Fan swatted her on the butt.

And then he stepped toward the exit.

As for Annie, she didn’t leave right away.

If others saw them together, it wouldn’t look good.

Ding-ling-ling...

Just as she was getting her emotions under control, her phone suddenly rang.

Seeing that Ning Bingcai’s number was calling, she frowned.

Lin Fan had just told her not to touch this matter anymore.

She wanted to ignore the call, but ultimately, she couldn’t help but press the answer button.

"Annie, what are you doing? Why haven’t you come to my company yet?"

Ning Bingcai’s voice from the other end was nauseating.

"Mr. Ning, it’s not that I don’t want to come, it’s just that there’s been a little situation at home and I need to check on it. How about I come over next month?"

Annie told a lie.

"Why not just send money back? It’s not like you can do much by going back there. You know how itchy my back has been these past few days, I need you to help me loosen up my bones. And let me tell you, I have several friends who just adore your massage techniques. Once you’re here, I’ll introduce them to you and double your rate."

Ning Bingcai’s voice carried an urgency.

Some habits, once formed, are hard to break.

"Mr. Ning... I really can’t do this, there are some things that money just can’t solve."

Annie still refused, albeit with difficulty.

"If money can’t solve it, it only proves there’s not enough money. How about this, I’ll quintuple the price for you. And I’m telling you, those friends of mine are foreigners, and to them, money is nothing. As long as you put your heart into it, I guarantee you’ll have a complete transformation within a year!"

These words from Ning Bingcai suddenly reminded Annie of the foreign forces Lin Fan had mentioned before.

It sparked a bold idea in her.

If she could get close to these people,

She would surely get better intelligence.

Of course, the promise of more money was also quite the temptation for her.

After all, no one would complain about having too much money.

"Alright, no problem, I’ll be there this afternoon!"

In the end, Annie agreed to it.

After hanging up the phone, she had no idea that she had just embarked on a dangerous journey.

...

Knock, knock, knock!

Standing at the door of the CEO’s office.

Lin Fan knocked.

Through the door, he could already smell the strong scent of flowers.

"Come in!"

Ning Mengyao’s voice came through, and he then pushed the door open and entered.

But as far as the eye could see, the office was filled with fresh flowers.

The normally spacious office of over a hundred square meters now felt cramped.

Fire-red roses, blooming and radiant.

Whether they were bouquets, flower baskets, or flower arrangements,

In short, the office was decorated like a flower shop.

And Ning Mengyao, sitting at the office desk, seemed like a fairy among the flowers.

Seeing Lin Fan enter, she revealed a sweet smile.

"You look well."

Lin Fan smiled as he sat down on the chair in front of the desk.

"Yes, the scent of flowers makes me feel so much more invigorated. I didn’t expect such a straightforward guy to be so romantic. Is it to thank me for the shares I gave you?"

Ning Mengyao put down the documents she was holding.

He had been gone for a week, and she had wanted to call him several times.

But in the end, she refrained.

After all, she knew she shouldn’t interfere with his life anymore.

Yet the sudden arrival of these flowers sweetened her heart.

It was unexpected, this ordinarily blunt man sending flowers.

It was beyond imagination.

"This... I didn’t send these."

Lin Fan’s response made Ning Mengyao’s previously sweet smile freeze in an instant.

"Not you?"

"Of course not me."

Lin Fan shook his head.

He had been battling with the Heart Demon these days.

Where would he find the time for this?

"Then who could it be?"

Ning Mengyao looked at Lin Fan in surprise.

He clearly wasn’t joking.

Besides him, who else would send her flowers?

As both were puzzled, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

A man in a suit, holding a bouquet of roses, walked in.

"My dear, do you like the gift I sent you?"
