My love-brained brothers spoil me to the skies

Chapter 88 It’s good to have money

In the huge room, warm sunlight poured in from the windowsill. Nangong Jin felt warm all over. She frowned slightly and opened her eyes.

"Hmm, did I sleep until I woke up naturally? Looks like I'm going to be fined again today!"

Nangong Jin couldn't help but worry about his pitiful salary.

She turned her head gently, and after making sure that she was the only one in the room, she carefully supported herself on the bed and sat up.

"I don't know what magic medicine I used, but I actually feel much better! It really is better to have money!"

She moved her body gently, muttering something. In order to prevent Gu Jingxing from appearing suddenly, she quickly changed her clothes and washed up.

When she walked out of the bathroom, her cell phone rang in the empty room. She walked over and answered the call in confusion.

"Hello?…"

"Nangong Jin, you didn't answer my call all night! Do you know how worried I was about you?"

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded angry and aggrieved.

"He Zichen? Phone call? I just woke up. Maybe I was too tired last night. I, I didn't hear it. I'm sorry!"

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone. After a while, "Does it still hurt? I'll come to you right away!"

"Hey, hey... no need, I'm going to work, you... aren't you going to work yet?"

The person on the other end of the phone suddenly chuckled, "Are you worried that I'll be replaced so easily? Nangong Jin, what do you think I've been doing for the past five years! Well, take care of yourself today, see you in the evening!"

Just when Nangong Jin thought he was going to hang up, He Zichen said something in a very light voice.

"I...you!"

Nangong Jin didn't hear clearly for a moment, but the other party had already hung up the phone. She held the phone, bit her lips, and thought deeply.

"Did he say I love you? Or I miss you?"

She didn't know why, but the more she thought about it, the hotter her face felt. They had known each other for so long, but they had never said the word "love" to each other!

She covered her face and paced around the room, muttering: What did he mean by see you in the evening?

Just when she was at a loss, her attention was attracted by the rows of beautiful haute couture dresses in the closet.

She couldn't help but walk forward and touched them carefully with her hands, "Wow, why are there so many dresses, so beautiful!"

The special touch brought by the material of the clothes made her feel very excited. After all, what woman doesn’t love beauty!

On the cabinet opposite the dress were sets of dazzling jewellery, which made Nangong Jin's eyes widen.

Please forgive her for looking naive, as she is extremely stingy with herself, so the only jewelry she has at the moment is, strictly speaking, the emerald ring that He Zichen gave her!

She just watched from a distance and didn't go up to touch it. After all, it was valuable. What if she broke it and Gu Jingxing asked her to pay for it?

Just as she was daydreaming, there was a knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock..."

Nangong Jin thought it was the maid, so she didn't go out. At this time, she heard an unexpected voice!

“Nangong Jin, come over and have breakfast!”

Huh? Why hasn't Gu Jingxing started work yet? Is it so easy to be a CEO nowadays? No need to work?!

She walked over with a puzzled look on her face, only to see Gu Jingxing in his pajamas, preparing breakfast on the table.

"I was afraid you weren't awake yet, so I didn't come over so early to disturb you. How come you didn't tell me you woke up? What if you're starving? You still need to take medicine later!"

He muttered as he turned around and glanced at Nangong Jin, "Why are you changing into your work clothes? Are you going to work?!"

He frowned with a look of confusion, which made Nangong Jin feel as if it was a sin for him to go to work!

"I don't have any physical problems anymore, so of course I have to go to work. Otherwise, what if I get fired?"

She said this half-jokingly, walked over, sat down, took the porridge and started drinking.

"I can support you! Didn't I give you a card? Is the credit limit not enough? I'll ask the butler to give you another one later!"

Gu Jingxing's words of arrogance left Nangong Jin speechless for a moment, and he started coughing.

"Ahem... No need, I have my own money! Ahem..."

"Eat slowly. You haven't used my card once so far. Do you think my money is smelly? Huh?"

He suddenly leaned over from behind and pressed his face against Nangong Jin's.

Nangong Jin froze, blinking non-stop. Just as he was about to explain, he suddenly heard the butler's voice from the door.

"Knock knock knock...Miss, you have..."

Before he could finish his words, he looked up and saw their extremely ambiguous actions.

"Sorry, Master. I'll be out right now..."

As he turned around and was about to leave, Nangong Jin saw him and quickly turned his head to stop him: "Butler, I have nothing to do, come here!"

The butler caught a glimpse of his young master's cold eyes and walked over with difficulty.

"Miss, someone just sent a gift over and said you have to open it yourself!"

Nangong Jin took it with a puzzled look on his face, "For me?"

The butler secretly observed Gu Jingxing's expression and nodded with despair.

Gu Jingxing looked at Nangong Jin opening the gift with hostility in his eyes.

It wasn't until he saw the familiar jewelry logo inside that he thought something was wrong.

Nangong Jin opened the jewelry box calmly, and the dazzling blue color deeply attracted her attention.

The butler caught sight of it immediately and exclaimed, "Oppenheimer Blue? Why is it here?"

It's not his fault. This was the piece of jewelry that Gu Jingxing asked him to buy, but it was bought by someone else first!

This is an auction item worth hundreds of millions! The only set of aquamarine diamonds in the world!

"Wow, it's so beautiful, Gu Jingxing, what do you think?"

The butler's expression kept changing. He really felt that the young lady was very generous. Didn't she see that the young master's face was as black as that?

"Well, Master, I have something else to do. I'll go get busy first!"

Nangong Jin looked at the butler's fleeing back in confusion.

"Nangong Jin, there is a dinner party tonight, do you want to accompany me?"

After hearing this, Nangong Jin suddenly thought of this. Could He Zichen be referring to this when he said "see you in the evening"? She looked at the jewelry in her hand and roughly guessed who gave it to her!

Fortunately, Nangong Jin didn’t know much about jewelry, so he didn’t know its value, he just thought it was beautiful.

"Don't go to work today, stay at home with me!" He said this as if he was angry and snatched the jewelry from her hand.

"Come on, I'll take a walk with you and then take your medicine!"

Nangong Jin was absent from work again for no apparent reason, causing Nangong Hao to call him.

“Hello, brother…” Nangong Jin answered the phone guiltily.

"Nangong Jin, you keep asking for leave. Aren't you afraid of being gossiped about? Your salary is about to be deducted..."

Suddenly her phone was snatched away by Gu Jingxing, "Nangong Hao, does my fiancée need your approval to be with me?"

You couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry in his voice, but you could feel his sense of oppression!

"It's you? Gu Jingxing? Why did my sister go to your place?"

Because Nangong Hao is not at home often, he is not clear about many things.

"Go ask Madam Nangong about this yourself! Don't call us again to disturb our date!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone without mercy.

Nangong Jin looked at the moody man in front of him with a little confusion: What's wrong with him?

A day passed like this. It would be more accurate to say that it was Nangong Jin who accompanied him to work rather than Gu Jingxing accompanying her.

Gu Jingxing's phone never stopped ringing for almost the entire day, as he was constantly dealing with official business. It was obvious that he was actually very busy, but he insisted on staying at home to accompany Nangong Jin.

Seeing him put the confidential documents in a conspicuous place without any scruples, Nangong Jin, a lawyer, couldn't help but remind him: "It's very dangerous for you to do this, at least put the documents in the safe!"

Gu Jingxing stopped what he was doing and stared at her: "Are you going to betray me again?"

These words left Nangong Jin speechless for a moment. She lowered her clear eyes and walked away.

Gu Jingxing had been looking at her back thoughtfully. The person between them was He Zichen. If that person wasn't there...
