Suddenly, He Huai fell onto Ning Yao’s, looking weak.

Ning Yaowas shocked. She wanted to check on He Huai’s condition, but He Huai hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear, “Don’t move.”

He Huai didn’t want Ning Yaoto see the scales that had suddenly appeared on his body. He was afraid that she would be frightened.

Ning Yaodidn’t dare to move anymore. She felt dizzy as she smelled the refreshing scent of the man’s cologne.

‘Does Mr. He have some kind of illness?’

Also, did she just hug her boss?

He Huai held Ning Yaoin his arms and his breathing gradually calmed down. His body temperature also slowly returned to normal while the scales on his neck eventually merged back with his skin and finally disappeared.

After making sure that all the scales had disappeared, He Huai let go of Ning Yao. He pretended to be tired and weak. “I’m sorry. I have a relapse sometimes. I must have scared you.”

“Should I send you to the hospital, Mr. He?” asked Ning Yao.

“No need, it’s an old illness. I’ll be fine once it passes.” He Huai shook his head.

The girls outside the door seemed to have left long ago, so He Huai pushed the door open and walked out.

Ning Yaoquickly changed her clothes and the two of them drove back to the company.

When the company workers saw the two of them arriving back at the office, they started to talk.

“Hey, don’t you guys feel that something is amiss? Was Vera wearing a green dress when she came here today?”

“I don’t think so. Do you think…?”

Everyone’s mind was instantly filled with all sorts of ideas.

“Impossible!” A girl who was dressed up daintily gritted her teeth and said, “Why would Mr. He fall for Vera? It’s only her first day at work!”

“I heard that Vera is only in her third year of university this year. Since when does Boss He like to use newcomers? I think there’s really something special between them…”

The group of people outside was discussing heatedly, but Ning Yao didn’t notice it at all. Right now, her mind was occupied with curious thoughts about Mr. He’s condition earlier.”

“Since it’s rumored that Mr. He doesn’t get close to women, could it be because of his hidden illness…?” Ning Yaosuddenly covered her mouth.

Did she discover some shocking secret?

God, she wouldn’t be killed, right? Ning Yaolooked at Clarence, who was working hard, in horror.

Right up till the moment he got off work, He Huai kept feeling that Ning Yaohad been looking at him strangely, which made him feel very strange.

After what had happened at noon, He Huai realized that Ning Yaowas too tempting for him. He had even risked exposing his true form.

He Huai had been frowning and thinking of a solution, which only made him look more terrifying to Ning Yao.

From Ning Yao’s perspective, she couldn’t help but wonder if her boss was thinking about how to deal with her.

When it was time to get off work, nothing had happened yet so Ning Yaoheaved a long sigh of relief.

And soon, the weekend approached. Ning Yaowas about to go to the seminar with He Huai in the afternoon. She had sent He Huai the time and place in advance and He Huai told her to meet him at the school gate.

Her roommate, Song Ying, got up and was about to go to the library to review her lessons with her books. She asked Ning Yaoif she wanted to go with her.

Ning Yaoshook her head. “I still have something to do. I won’t be going.”

There was something else Ning Yaowas planning to do today that she didn’t tell He Huai.

Ning Yaotook out a backpack from her closet and took the subway to the city’s sports stadium.

There was a banner in front of the stadium and a huge crowd with a lot of media had gathered at the entrance.

Ning Yaoentered through the athlete’s passageway and went to the changing room to change into her swimsuit.

This was not her first time participating in a competition like this, so she was not nervous at all.

In response to the country’s call for more participation in and organization of national sports events, the city had held large-scale track and field as well swimming competitions for several years in a row. In order to encourage citizens to participate, they had even prepared a large amount of cash rewards.

Ning Yao’s best result before was second place, which was already very good for an amateur athlete. Moreover, the first place went to a retired professional athlete

Ning Yaodidn’t participate in the competition because she liked sports or wanted to be famous. She just needed the prize money.

In the years she had left home, she had unknowingly transformed into the female version of Grandet, not missing any opportunity to make money.

After the opening ceremony, several important leaders made official speeches before the official competition began.

As soon as Ning Yao appeared, a few shouts came from the audience. “Miss Yao, you can do it!”

Ning Yaolooked over and saw a few children from an orphanage cheering for her under the guidance of their teacher.

Ning Yaowaved at them with a bright smile and then made a ‘V’ sign.

She took a deep breath and was about to focus on the game when she suddenly noticed a familiar figure in the referee’s seat in the distance.
