“That’s the only request, right?” Minister Niu sighed, his head heavy.

Chu Ning nodded playfully. “I’m not a greedy person. This request is enough.”

Minister Niu was not like the old fox she had seen at the beginning. He was choked by Chu Ning’s words and stared at her. “This isn’t greedy? Aren’t you a straight-A student? Why do you have a different understanding of greed than ordinary people?”

Chu Ning smiled slyly and didn’t respond to him.

Minister Niu put away the map and said feebly, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.” He then stood up and was about to leave. However, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. Without turning his head, he said gloomily, “When you’re free, go and see Little Yi. She really wants to thank you.”

After saying this, Minister Niu did not stay any longer and left the noodle shop in a few steps.

Chu Ning remained seated in silence. After a long time, even the noodle shop owner was a little worried about her. “President Chu? What’s wrong?”

Chu Ning didn’t say anything. She bit her lower lip hard, afraid that she would laugh out loud the moment she opened her mouth.

The owner of the noodle shop thought that her discussion with Minister Niu did not go well. After all, he had earlier gone to the kitchen to avoid arousing suspicion. Minister Niu could come to his place to eat often. Even when others saw Minister Niu, they would choose to stay there. He was not a fool.

He didn’t hear a word of their conversation just now. He only saw that Minister Niu was walking very quickly and Chu Ning was sitting there motionless. He thought that things didn’t go smoothly.

He saw that Chu Ning was a young girl who could already eat and chat with the minister at such a young age. He was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable if she was rejected, so he comforted her, “President Chu, don’t be discouraged. Failure and success are common occurrences.”

Chu Ning was still suppressing the joy in her heart. She hurriedly nodded and walked out of the door. The owner of the noodle shop sighed. He looked at Chu Ning’s disappointment as she ‘ran out the door’ and didn’t say anything.

Back in the car, Chu Ning’s smile grew brighter. She didn’t know who she could share this joy with, but if she didn’t say it out loud, she felt like a helium balloon that was about to burst from the explosive joy.

After much thought, she decided to call Xu Xi.

Xu Xi was at home studying when he suddenly heard the phone ring. He saw from the caller ID that it was Chu Ning. The delight he felt made him quickly pick up the phone. “Hello? What’s wrong?”

When Chu Ning heard his voice, she recalled the news he had told her and didn’t know what to say.

Xu Xi did not hear Chu Ning’s voice and thought that she was in danger. He frantically asked, “Chu Ning? Are you alright? Did something happen to you?”

Chu Ning came back to her senses when she heard this. Her voice was trembling with excitement. “Xu Xi, did you know?” She had to stop after this sentence in order to calm down before continuing, “At that time, you told me about that thing; I’ve gotten it done.”

The things he had told Chu Ning flashed through his mind. There was only one recent matter that could make Chu Ning so excited.

Xu Xi also became excited. “Was..was it that matter? I knew you could do it!”

Chu Ning heard his emotional tone, and her settled heart sped up once more. This matter had almost overshadowed everything she had at the moment. If she could succeed, it would bring her countless benefits. The sense of accomplishment was comparable to the first time she started Cloud Shopping.

“Thank you so much, Xu Xi,” Chu Ning said gently. “If you hadn’t told me this, I wouldn’t have had any chance.”

Hearing her gentle tone, Xu Xi couldn’t help but feel a fluctuation in his feelings; his excitement turning into shyness and joy. He liked Chu Ning and was very happy to be able to help her.

“If only Chu Ning had such feelings for me,” Xu Xi thought to himself.

Xu Xi couldn’t help but chuckle as if he had already imagined the scene after confessing to Chu Ning.

Chu Ning was stunned when she heard this. She thought that Xu Xi was happy for her, so she called out to him.

Xu Xi quickly came back to his senses. They both still had matters to settle, so they hung up after chatting for a while.
