Under the warm sunlight, both of them lay on the bed quietly .

"Although the security of the place you’re staying at right now is good, it can only hold off thieves and paparazzi…" Lu Tingxiao voiced out his thoughts .

Ning Xi replied with excitement . "Oh, about that! I was actually thinking of getting a new place! I looked through my savings lately and it’s enough to get myself a little villa! I wanted to talk to you about this! Let’s go and look at some houses soon?"

"Okay," Lu Tingxiao replied, "I’ll help you take note of the ones suitable for you . I’ll arrange the security system personally . "

"Mmm!" Ning Xi nodded .

Lu Tingxiao gave it more thought but was still not very assured . "I’ll let Tang Lang stay by your side . You need a bodyguard for your career as well . "

Ning Xi was surprised . "Have Second Senior Brother as my bodyguard?"

From a company security guard to a private bodyguard . . . his job ranking was deteriorating . While the former role was as a little security guard, he was still working for an international company!

"He needs the money," said Lu Tingxiao .

…

Okay, she had almost forgotten that Second Senior Brother’s credit card had been blocked by First Senior Brother, pushing him to even become a security guard and a child’s tutor to earn some money .

As long as it pays!

"Oh right, I almost forgot . . . I need two more people from you!" Ning Xi suddenly remembered the bunch of knives, bats, and the local specialties back in her house .

"Who?" Lu TIngxiao asked .

"Shi Xiao and Xiong Zhi . Is it okay?" Ning Xi checked .

"They went to look for you?" Lu Tingxiao had actually expected them to .

Ning Xi cleared her throat . "Well, there's no such thing as a free lunch!"

Lu Tingxiao thought about it . He did not plan to use the both of them again but they were capable . After what had happened the last time, they had become familiar with Ning Xi and the others might not be as responsible as them .

"Sure . " Most importantly, how could he say no to his wife’s request?

"Are you hungry?" Lu Tingxiao asked .

Ning Xi felt her stomach growling in response, so she nodded . "Very!"

"I’ll go and check on the kitchen to see if our meal is ready . "

"Mmm!"

After being sick for two days, Ning Xi still felt weak . Just as she was about to fall asleep again, her phone rang .

When she went out to get some soy sauce two days ago, she had not taken her phone with her, so Lu Tingxiao had probably brought it over for her .

It was Ling Zhizhi .

The moment Ning Xi saw Ling Zhizhi’s name, her expression changed .

She was done for! Too many things had happened in the past two days . In addition to her sickness, she had forgotten that she was supposed to join a variety show programme today! The crew was supposed to travel to the old town beside the Shu River at 8 o’clock . It was already 7 o'clock now!

Ning Xi was fully awake as she picked up the phone . "Hello, Sis Zhizhi! I’m really sorry! I’m not feeling well and slept for two days straight but I just woke up . I’ll be there immediately!"

"I was just about to tell you that the programme has been delayed," Ling Zhizhi said .

"Huh? Delayed?" Ning Xi was surprised .

"What happened? Did you say that you're sick? Are you alright?" Ling Zhizhi asked worriedly .

Ning Xi always had excellent work ethics . If her illness was not very serious, she would never have forgotten about the programme today .

"It’s alright, it was just a fever . I feel much better now!"

"Are you alone at home now? Should I ask Xiao Tao to go over and take care of you?" Ling Zhizhi asked .
