Everyone ate their fill at dinner tonight, feeling content.
Schmidt and his bodyguards had already returned to the hotel.
Hong Yueyin and Li Yao had also left the villa.
They knew Su Meng wanted to talk to Jiang Ning tonight, so they left very considerately, returning to their respective families.
As for Mengmeng, she had fallen asleep after listening to Jiang Ning's fairy tale.
Jiang Ning then started cleaning the first floor of the villa, preparing to finish his final duties.
He had already decided that he would quietly leave after making breakfast early tomorrow morning.
As for asking Su Meng for a salary, he decided against it. He had only been here for a few days, and he had already received quite a bit.
Huaxin's 100,000, he would transfer the money back to Su Meng after he was done.
When Jiang Ning finished cleaning the first and second floors of the villa, he went up to the third floor.
At this moment, Su Meng was sitting at her office desk in a daze.
Jiang Ning was about to go to the restroom to get the mop.
"Jiang Ning, don't be busy yet, can you come over here for a moment? Let's talk, okay?"
Su Meng said, her tone sincere.
"Oh, okay, President Su, I was just about to say that after I finish these things, I'll leave early tomorrow morning."
Jiang Ning said as he walked to the chair in front of Su Meng's desk and sat down.
Su Meng was stunned when she heard Jiang Ning's words, and then she didn't know how to speak.
Both of them were silent, and the scene was very quiet.
"Oh, right, President Su, the hundred thousand yuan you transferred to me before, I haven't touched it, I'll return it to you now."
Jiang Ning finished speaking and took out his phone, preparing to make a transfer.
"Don't, wait, Jiang Ning." Su Meng quickly stopped him.
Jiang Ning looked at Su Meng curiously.
"Jiang Ning, I can see that you really like Mengmeng."
Su Meng's eyes were fixed on Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning answered frankly, "Yes, Mengmeng is very well-behaved, and I do like her."
"I heard from Xiaoyinyin that Mengmeng really wants you to be her father?" Su Meng continued to ask.
Hearing Su Meng's question, Jiang Ning was a little flustered at this moment, and nervously said, "President Su, I, I really didn't instigate Mengmeng to call me Dad, please don't misunderstand."
"Jiang Ning, I'm just saying, Mengmeng really wants you to be her father, is that true? You don't need to be nervous."
"It's true, but I really..."
Jiang Ning was sweating on his forehead. What was this all about? He felt like a bad guy, wanting to eat swan meat, but the swan saw through the toad's thoughts.
But he was really wronged, he, well, he did secretly think about it.
"Jiang Ning, you just need to answer yes or no, does Mengmeng want you to be her father?"
Su Meng's cold, expressionless words sent a chill down Jiang Ning's spine.
"I have."
"Then, have you ever considered being Mengmeng's father?" Su Meng pressed.
Jiang Ning calmed down, composed himself, and reasoned that since he wasn't being paid by Su Corporation and was helping to take care of the child for free, there was nothing to fear. He hadn't done anything wrong.
Jiang Ning raised his head and met Su Meng's gaze, equally calm. "I have. If you, President Su, don't have time to take care of Mengmeng, I'll take her."
"So, you want to be Mengmeng's father?"
"Yes, I very much want to be Mengmeng's father. I want to protect her, and I want her to have a childhood filled with love.
President Su, since you adopted her, have you ever considered her feelings?"
Jiang Ning said righteously.
"Jiang Ning, you... do you know she's adopted?"
"Mengmeng told me on the first day of work."
Su Meng sighed, "It seems Mengmeng trusted you so much on the first day."
"Alright, President Su, I don't want to say more to you.
I just want to tell you that since you adopted Mengmeng, you have to be responsible for her.
Instead of only considering your own feelings, disregarding the child's feelings.
I'll return the money to you later, and I'll leave tomorrow morning. I'll get going now."
Jiang Ning finished speaking and stood up; he really couldn't stand Su Meng's cold, emotionless tone.
He hadn't done anything wrong, nor was he planning to ask for her money. There was no need for her to give him the cold shoulder.
Then, he transferred the 100,000 yuan back through Huaxin, just as it was.
He then went to the restroom and grabbed a mop.
Su Meng was stunned.
Because she was shocked by Jiang Ning's words.
Since she adopted Mengmeng, she seemed to have never considered Mengmeng's feelings. She was also so busy, often not at home.
Before, she had planned to send Mengmeng to kindergarten when she got back and then hire a few nannies to look after her.
The idea of adopting Mengmeng seemed to stem solely from Su Meng's infertility.
She only wanted to give Mengmeng a good environment and a good life.
However, she neglected that the children in the orphanage, after being adopted, wanted most of all, familial love; a home filled with love, maternal affection, and even the care of grandparents.
Su Meng also disregarded her family's objections and left home, living with Mengmeng in this villa. What kind of home was this?
Su Meng pondered repeatedly.
She didn't notice that Jiang Ning had already left his seat and transferred the money back.
After more than ten minutes, seeing that Su Meng was still in a daze.
Jiang Ning shook his head and went downstairs, returning to his room to take a shower.
"Jiang Ning, if…"
Su Meng recovered her senses and began to speak, but then stopped.
Ahead were empty chairs, and Jiang Ning was nowhere to be seen.
"That damn Jiang Ning, so rude…"
However, halfway through her sentence, she saw that the third floor had already been swept spotlessly clean.
"What was I just doing? How long was I spacing out?"
Su Meng murmured to herself and picked up her phone to check the time, seeing the information about Jiang Ning's transfer of 100,000 yuan.
She felt a little ashamed.
After checking the time of the transfer record, "I actually spaced out for over twenty minutes?"
Then, Su Meng shook her head and walked toward the second floor.
She arrived at the door of Jiang Ning's bedroom.
"Knock, knock."
"Wait a moment."
Jiang Ning had just finished showering and was still wiping his wet hair.
"It's me, Su Meng. I still have something to say."
Su Meng cleared her throat and said.
"Wait a moment."
Jiang Ning finished speaking, put on his vest, and walked over.
"Creak."
The door opened, and their eyes met.
Jiang Ning had just finished showering, and his firm, perfect muscle contours, radiating with male hormones, coupled with his own temperament, made Su Meng a bit dazed.
Her face flushed, "Um, Jiang Ning, can we go inside and talk?"
"Oh, of course."
Jiang Ning quickly stepped aside.
Su Meng came to the desk and sat down, while Jiang Ning sat on the bed.
"Go ahead."
Jiang Ning didn't know what Su Meng wanted to say.
"Jiang Ning, I, I hope you can stay. Can you?"
Su Meng's tone was no longer cold, only a pleading look in her eyes.
Hearing Su Meng's words, Jiang Ning stood up. "Really, can I continue to stay and take care of Mengmeng?"
"Yes, but, I have a request. I don't know if you can help, help me?" Su Meng stammered.
"Help you? How can I help you?"
Jiang Ning asked, puzzled.
What could he possibly do for the president of Su Corporation?
Su Meng's eyes darted left and right, avoiding his gaze. "Jiang, Jiang Ning, can you… can you be Mengmeng's father?"
"What?"
Jiang Ning was so shocked by Su Meng's words that he stood up again.
