Everyone was eating and drinking, sitting or lying down or holding cell phones, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Cheng Huanran had just recovered. He was cautious and did not dare to eat too much, and he did not drink a drop of wine.
He quietly glanced at Kang An, who was standing in the corner, and saw that her eyes were not squinting, her back was as straight as a pine tree, and her temperament was as cold and quiet as an orchid, so he couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
"Of course." Xue Huan hugged his shoulders and asked jokingly: "Which one is who? Is it a bodyguard or a security guard? It seems that I have never seen her before."
Cheng Huanran was slightly embarrassed and quickly returned to normal.
"Uncle Huan, she is my newly hired bodyguard. Thanks to her rescue, I was able to escape from the den of thieves. By the way, she is Ah Chao's senior sister, her surname is Kang and her name is An."
"Yeah." Xue Huan is indeed a doctor who likes "health" and "safety", and he praised without hesitation: "What a name!"
Cheng Huanran narrowed his eyes with a smile and told Xue Huan the origin of Kang An word for word.
Xue Huan raised his eyebrows and smiled softly.
The eldest nephew is gentle and elegant, and speaks politely and generously, but he has never been a chatterer. Someone who can make him talk non-stop and make him absent-minded and keep stealing glances is definitely extraordinary in his heart.
It seems that there may be good things happening at home again!
Cheng Huanran sighed and said, "I'm really sorry that her teahouse suffered such a disaster. Originally, I planned to compensate her for the mountainous land in the suburbs, but she declined, saying she didn't need it. I could only offer a higher salary.
, be compensated appropriately.”
"Isn't it good?" Xue Huan narrowed his eyes with a smile and whispered: "It proves that she is not the kind of person who is blind to money, nor is she the kind of person who repays kindness with ulterior motives. However, you don't have to worry.
, If you can’t make up for it with money, then you can pay it back with love.”
Cheng Huanran's handsome face instantly turned red when he heard this, and he hesitated: "Uncle Huan, it's not what you think now..."
"What I mean is to be nice to the girl." Xue Huan glared at him jokingly and explained: "I am working alone in the imperial capital. It is not easy for someone who is not familiar with the place."
After saying this, he raised his eyebrows deliberately and asked funnyly: "What else? What do you think I am thinking?"
Cheng Huanran blushed: "...No! No!"
Xue Huan laughed to himself. He was too embarrassed to tease his nephew anymore or coax him to drink. Seeing his old father busy chatting with Wu Bo, he hurriedly stepped forward to help push his old mother.
Cheng Huanran coughed uneasily, calmed down and took a sip of water, but his eyes involuntarily glanced at Kang An again.
A few days ago, Ah Chao told Kang An about the sincerity of the young master, which made Kang An feel a little embarrassed.
She explained that her tea house was rented, not her own place, and that at best she had just lost the money she invested.
The mountains were burned, but the place was still there and the impact was not big.
Once the tea trees are burned out, other tree species will be replanted, and in a few years they will be lush and green again. There is no need for him to use a large piece of mountain land to repay.
She also said that she understood that Cheng Huanran wanted to repay her, but she came to the rescue to help her junior brother, not for him, let alone to repay him.
Kang An is obviously not a very gregarious person, and he speaks straightforwardly.
She even said in the end that if Cheng Huanran was too enthusiastic, she would be embarrassed and feel ashamed.
Cheng Huanran had no choice but to withdraw Shandi's proposal, but still insisted on hiring her with a high salary, hoping that she would fulfill her duties and do her job well.
Kang An agreed and said she would do her best.
Cheng Huanran saw that she was neither greedy for merit nor greedy for money, and that she was well-controlled in her work and conduct. Although she was a little cold, but fortunately she was not cold and ignored him, and he secretly had fun for several days.
Kang An has been living in a teahouse in recent years. The fire destroyed the teahouse, and all her clothes and things around her were gone.
After Xue Ling heard about it, she quickly sent someone to bring her a change of clothes and daily necessities.
Kang An saw that the things his wife sent were all comfortable items at reasonable prices, so he did not refuse them politely and accepted them all after thanking him.
Not only that, considering that she is the only female employee, Xue Ling specially arranged for her room to be independent, with a separate bathroom and room, giving her enough personal privacy.
Kang An was secretly grateful and began to believe A Chao's words.
In the next few days, she found that everyone in the Cheng family was very kind and kind, gentle and courteous to others, without any arrogance or disdain.
She hadn't worked as a bodyguard for a long time, and she originally thought her boss might be picky about it. After all, they offered a high salary, but so far she hasn't heard a word about it.
I thought she was new here and had helped out before, so her master treated her in a special way, but Junior Brother Ah Chao said that they were all the same. None of the Cheng family were stingy or picky, and were very tolerant. Unless the servants
It's too outrageous, otherwise the host wouldn't be picky.
For example, now, an old chef took a dozen skewers of mutton and a few skewers of shredded squid, and walked towards her with a smile on his plate.
"Senior Sister Kang, these are yours."
Kang An smiled slightly and shook his head: "No, we don't have meals during working hours."
Since she came to Xinyuan, Ah Chao introduced her to everyone as his senior sister. I don't know what happened, but everyone, whether they were drivers or chefs, politely called her "Senior Sister Kang."
But Lao Li was very insistent: "It's okay, we in Xinyuan don't have that many rules. Usually the host eats first, and then everyone follows, so there's not that much fuss. Look! Ah Chao and the security guard are taking turns eating!"
Kang An glanced at his junior brother in the corner and saw that he was grilling skewers in one hand and drinking in the other. He couldn't help but have three big black lines on his forehead.
Lao Li quickly handed her the plate and quickly went back to the oven.
Kang An sniffed and was unconsciously attracted by the spicy scent of cumin. He took one and chewed it, but his eyes calmly observed the surroundings.
Xinyuan's garden is very large, but there are not many blind spots for surveillance.
Xinyuan is independent from other communities and has its own separate road leading into Xinyuan, so security work does not need to be too strenuous.
She took a few glances at the guests and found that all of them were people with open eyebrows and straight backs. She also saw that they were all chatting happily, with almost no airs of rich people. Their eyebrows were sincere and their smiles were sincere. They were harmonious and had no strange atmosphere. Unknowingly, she also
Relaxed a little.
"Senior sister!" Ah Chao came over and handed her the roasted chicken leg in his hand, "Try this! It's fresh chicken leg soaked in some kind of sauce. It's especially delicious! Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside! The taste is superb!"
Kang An saw that the chicken leg was of excellent color, so he took it over and took a bite.
"Well, very good."
Ah Chao leaned against the wall and wiped his hands.
"I'll go to the front door to take a look first. The young master will stay at home tonight, no one else wants to go out. Tonight, my two other brothers and I will take turns guarding the house. There will be security guards outside. It's still the same rule, three nights off and one night on duty.
"
Kang An nodded.
Ah Chao walked away in a flash.
Kang An also followed the example of his junior brother and leaned against the wall comfortably, eating skewers slowly, secretly feeling that working in Xinyuan is really good, the food is delicious and the work is easy, the key is - the host is easy to get along with, and the people who come and go are not
complex.
Everything was very good, except for one thing - Cheng Huanran always liked to peek at her.
