Chapter 1500: Terminating the Employment Contract?

“Hmph, stop pretending in front of me!” Ning Aoxue glared at Lin Feng, grinding her teeth as she said, “Don’t think just because you’re good-looking. There are plenty of men out there better-looking than you…”

“I’ve never thought I was…” Lin Feng was instinctively going along with Ning Aoxue’s words, but halfway through he suddenly felt something was off, and casually corrected himself, “Classmate Ning Aoxue, although I won’t deny there are still a few guys in this world more handsome than me, I can’t just ignore my conscience and call myself ugly, can I?”

Ning Aoxue was almost made to laugh out loud by Lin Feng’s deadly serious attitude… This guy is still just as shameless!

But thinking of the serious topic she was about to bring up with Lin Feng, Ning Aoxue forced herself to hold back the laughter with difficulty, kept her icy expression, stared at Lin Feng and said, “Stop fooling around, I’ve got something serious to talk to you about!”

“You’re already looking down on my looks… isn’t that serious enough?” Lin Feng looked at Ning Aoxue with a grin.

“Hmph, you know perfectly well what you look like…” Ning Aoxue was choked by his words and muttered back in a muffled voice.

“Mm… I’m very clear that I’m handsome…” Lin Feng finished, put one hand on his hip and the other on the door frame, and said to Ning Aoxue in an exaggeratedly flirtatious way, “Since we can reach a consensus on that point, I’ll gladly listen to what you have to say!”

Who reached a consensus with you, this is all your self-hypnosis, okay! Ning Aoxue rolled her eyes, then said coldly to Lin Feng, “Lin Feng, I’m going to have my dad terminate your bodyguard employment contract!”

“Why?” Lin Feng’s expression didn’t change, he continued smiling at Ning Aoxue, “You think I can’t protect you anymore?”

Seeing that Lin Feng didn’t look the slightest bit surprised, Ning Aoxue couldn’t quite figure out what he was really thinking… Did he not understand that getting her father to terminate his contract meant she was kicking him out of the villa? Why wasn’t he agitated at all?

“It’s not that you can’t protect me… it’s that I don’t need your protection anymore…” Ning Aoxue stared at Lin Feng with a bit of stubbornness and said in a low voice.

“Oh?” Lin Feng looked Ning Aoxue up and down with interest and asked with a smile, “Who gave you that kind of illusion?”

“What do you mean?” Ning Aoxue said to Lin Feng, a little angry, “Do you look down on me? I’m learning Martial Arts from Sister Qingyi now, I’ll soon have enough skill to protect myself, I don’t need you here hanging out a sheep’s head while selling dog meat, claiming you’re protecting me…”

“I’m not looking down on you…” Lin Feng shook his head, a teasing glint flashing in his eyes. “If terminating the contract is your father’s idea, as long as he’s willing to pay the penalty according to the agreement, I’ll agree…”

Of course Lin Feng understood that Ning Aoxue was throwing a tantrum because she wanted him to move out… Putting aside whether Ning Fuxun would agree to this wilful idea of hers, even if Ning Fuxun suddenly had a brain cramp and agreed to terminate the contract with Lin Feng, at most Lin Feng would move out of Ning Aoxue’s No. 3 villa… and go live next door!

Even if Ning Aoxue really no longer needed Lin Feng’s protection, he still couldn’t ignore Su Zi’s safety, could he? Whether it was Xue Qingyi’s place or Zhou Yang’s, Lin Feng could move in long-term without the slightest psychological burden, so why would he be worried about Ning Aoxue’s threat…

Ning Aoxue was stunned for a moment. Lin Feng actually agreed so easily—did that mean, in this guy’s heart, she wasn’t important at all?

A woman’s thoughts are just that hard to understand. She had been hell-bent on terminating the contract with Lin Feng, but when Lin Feng cheerfully agreed, Ning Aoxue suddenly felt a little sad, as if Lin Feng didn’t care about her at all…

“Hmph! I’ll talk to my father about it today, just you wait!” Ning Aoxue still gritted her teeth in the end and threw out a harsh line at Lin Feng.

…

Around three or four that afternoon, Ning Fuxun’s car appeared outside Villa No. 3. This richest man in China, who never put on airs, had personally come to pick up Ning Aoxue and Su Zi to attend a fashion celebrities’ charity night. Ning Fuxun originally thought he would run into Lin Feng, but after entering the villa he didn’t see any sign of him.

“Uncle Ning, you don’t need to look for Lin Feng, he got a call not long ago and already drove off. I asked him, he said he has an invitation and will be attending the gala…” Su Zi explained to Ning Fuxun with a smile.

“Lin Feng has an invitation?” Ning Fuxun was slightly taken aback. Weren’t invitations to this event quite hard to get? Who sent Lin Feng an invitation, Cao Tiannan? Has Lin Feng’s clout already gotten that big?

“Yeah…” Su Zi nodded. “But it seems the invitation Lin Feng has is actually his father’s. Uncle Lin apparently isn’t very convenient for attending this kind of banquet, so he asked Lin Feng to go in his place.”

“An invitation for Lin Feng’s father…” Ning Fuxun’s heart tightened. He only knew Lin Feng’s father was a military officer, he didn’t know his exact position. But hearing Su Zi say that, Ning Fuxun more or less had a sense of it now! In the whole Jiangzhou Military Region, among the senior officers worthy of Cao Tiannan sending an invitation to, there were probably only a handful. It seemed Lin Feng’s father’s identity was far from simple!

Thinking that, Ning Fuxun suddenly turned and glanced at Ning Aoxue’s expression, and asked in surprise, “Aoxue, what’s wrong? Are you in a bad mood?”

Ever since Ning Fuxun came in, Ning Aoxue hadn’t said a word. Her mind was completely tangled up over whether she should tell her father about terminating the contract with Lin Feng… She hesitated—if her father agreed, would it be completely irreversible? Would Lin Feng really move out? The more Ning Aoxue thought about it, the more conflicted she felt, and her delicate brows couldn’t help but knit slightly.

Hearing Ning Fuxun speak to her, Ning Aoxue finally couldn’t hold it in anymore. She stared into his eyes and said solemnly, “Dad, there’s something I want to discuss with you!”

Hearing the seriousness in her tone, Ning Fuxun couldn’t help frowning as he asked, “If there’s something, just say it. Why so nervous, are you afraid Daddy won’t help you?”

Su Zi looked at Ning Aoxue in puzzlement. She felt Miss Ning’s tone was a bit too solemn. What on earth was she going to say?

“I… I want you to terminate Lin Feng’s bodyguard employment contract!” Ning Aoxue looked at Ning Fuxun and said it word by word.

“What?!” Su Zi stared at Ning Aoxue in astonishment. She really couldn’t figure out why Ning Aoxue suddenly wanted to do this. Did Lin Feng somehow make her unhappy?

“What did you say?” Ning Fuxun almost jumped up. He didn’t even think about it and directly refused her, “If Lin Feng hasn’t done anything wrong, I will not terminate the contract! Aoxue, first tell me, what exactly happened?! Lin Feng didn’t bully you, did he?”
