Li family villa.
At this moment, the Li family patriarch, Li Qingfeng, was plotting with his son Li Haishan.
Li Qingfeng’s eyes lit up, “Son, are you sure Su Meng is currently living outside with a daughter and in conflict with that old dog Su Yunlong?”
Li Haishan patted his chest and said, “Dad, I swear it’s true. No one knows who the father of Su Meng’s child is, but right now she’s living in the Yunding Villa Community. She even hired an ordinary young man who graduated college two years ago to take care of the little girl.”
Li Qingfeng raised a brow, “A young man who graduated two years ago? Could he be her current boyfriend? Maybe that girl is their child?”
“No, Dad, I already investigated. That guy used to be an IT admin at a company but just got laid off. He only took the ‘stay-at-home dad’ job because he’s broke.”
Li Qingfeng stroked his chin, “Oh? So that’s how it is. No wonder you’ve never managed to win her over—turns out she already has a child.”
“So what should we do next, Dad?”
Li Qingfeng’s eyes flashed coldly, “Isn’t Su Meng flying abroad tomorrow for business? Send someone to snatch the girl and beat that kid up, then drive him out. Get photos. Use them to force that bitch Su Meng to sign a marriage contract and company share agreement with someone we trust.”
Li Haishan hesitated, fear in his eyes, “But what if Su Meng refuses and calls the police?”
Li Qingfeng glared at his useless son, “Idiot! That’s why I told you to find someone we can trust to handle it. Let one of our people impersonate the groom. Later, we can quietly transfer the assets and sell the shares. Even if things get exposed, there won’t be any evidence tied to us.”
Li Haishan’s eyes gleamed with perverted excitement, “But Dad, I still want to sleep with Su Meng.”
Li Qingfeng slapped the back of his son’s head, furious, “Damn it, control yourself. We’ll see how the situation develops. If Su Meng completely surrenders and becomes our puppet, you can do whatever you want with her.”
Many families had similar ideas to the Li family.
After all, Su Meng was the only daughter of the Su family. The Su Group’s total assets exceeded 100 billion yuan, with the Su family alone holding 51%—that’s over 60 billion yuan.
Whoever married Su Meng would essentially bring that wealth into their own family.
With such a fortune, any family would be tempted.
That’s why so many rich heirs, with family assets in the hundreds of millions or even billions, were all eyeing Su Meng—not just for her wealth, but also for her beauty, which surpassed even that of many celebrities.
But none of them knew that the Su Group had a hidden young master currently working at the bottom level, who would, in just a few years, take over as CEO and run the company.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ning had spent a full hour cleaning the first and second floors until everything sparkled.
When he came to clean the third floor, it was his first time up there.
Su Meng had just finished tidying up and was preparing to go downstairs to shower.
“Jiang Ning, you don’t need to clean the office on the third floor too thoroughly. Just tidy up the bedroom and rest early—you’ve had a long day,” Su Meng said.
“Understood, CEO Su.” Jiang Ning carried the mop, rag, and bucket upstairs.
He wasn’t sure if the third-floor bathroom had supplies.
Upon arriving, he saw it was fully stocked. So every floor had its own set.
Jiang Ning shook his head with a wry smile. He hadn’t come up earlier because Su Meng had been on this floor, and it would’ve been awkward to show up empty-handed. Enjoying the story? Read on at novelping.com.
Soon, he began cleaning the third floor.
He noticed a piano in the music room, and his eyes lit up. Maybe tomorrow he could teach Mengmeng some basic piano. While he didn’t know how to play properly, he understood the basics of the keys.
Who knows, maybe after five minutes, he’d unlock the Beginner-level piano skill?
With that thought, Jiang Ning diligently mopped the floors.
Half an hour later, the third floor was spotless.
Jiang Ning returned to the second floor with his mop.
In Su Meng’s bedroom…
Su Meng had just finished showering and was wearing a bathrobe. She’d been a little uneasy earlier.
When she entered her room, she noticed it had been tidied up.
She still wasn’t used to a man entering her private space.
Even though Jiang Ning had only mopped the floor and organized books and the vanity table, it still felt odd.
It was like being secretly watched by a man.
The moment she entered the bedroom and saw it, she immediately rushed to the wardrobe to check.
Thankfully, Jiang Ning wasn’t some pervert—he hadn’t touched her wardrobe or looked at any of her underwear or clothes.
Only then did she relax and go take her shower.
As Jiang Ning came downstairs…
Su Meng stepped out of her room in a bathrobe, towel in hand, wiping the water from her hair.
Her long, fair legs, stunning face, and full curves were on full display.
Jiang Ning couldn’t help but gulp.
He swore, it was the first time in his life seeing such a breathtaking beauty in person.
When she noticed Jiang Ning standing there, dumbfounded, staring at her, Su Meng snapped, “What are you looking at, Jiang Ning? Never seen a beautiful woman before?”
Snapped out of it, Jiang Ning quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, CEO Su. I zoned out for a second.”
Then he rushed into the shared bathroom, set down the mop and bucket, and fled back to his room in embarrassment.
Seeing him panic like that, Su Meng couldn’t help but smile.
It also confirmed to her that Jiang Ning was still just a pure young man.
No wonder her brother kept pushing for the two of them to get together.
This Jiang Ning… when it came to relationships, he really was a blank sheet.
And oddly enough, when she saw him looking at her like that, Su Meng didn’t feel angry. She actually felt a little proud.
If it had been anyone else, she would’ve been disgusted and probably shouted, “Pervert!”
She didn’t know why, but she ended up teasing him instead of scolding.
Seeing his flustered retreat actually made her want to laugh.
In the guest room…
Jiang Ning entered the bathroom. After a long, exhausting day, he lay quietly in the bathtub.
Everything that happened today felt like a dream.
As for marrying Su Meng—that wasn’t even a thought he dared to entertain.
Someone like her and someone like him? He knew his place.
But… that moment just now when he saw Su Meng, he did lose control for a second.
He had never looked directly at such a stunning woman before—like a lotus rising from water.
Her long, slender legs… he had the urge to reach out and touch them.
Her slender waist… he had the desire to wrap his arm around it.
Her perfect face and delicate lips… he even wanted to kiss them.
He was a young man in his early twenties. Having such thoughts was completely normal.
If he didn’t, maybe he should see a doctor to check if something was wrong with him.
But that was all it was—a passing thought.
He knew where he stood. Right now, his job was to take care of a child for three months.
That was his only focus.
With that thought, Jiang Ning sank into the bathtub.
After holding his breath underwater for two minutes, he emerged, rinsed off, put on a robe, and prepared for bed.
Knock knock knock.
Just then, a knock sounded at the door.
