Nan Chen finally finished what he had to finish. He stood up and stretched his muscles.

It was almost past midnight.

He put on his suit jacket and exited his office.

After walking around the company, he noticed many employees of various departments were still working overtime.

Nan Chen walked inside to greet them and reminded them to rest well.

This was the only moment where Nan Chen revealed his relatively soft side to his colleagues. He was usually as cold as ice, but in the dead of night, he would get his employees from the secretariat to buy coffee and supper for those who worked overtime.

To those employees, Nan Chen extending his regards was a stimulant that was a thousand times better than coffee. It made them feel as if all their efforts were worth it.

In this era of acute competition, everyone and every team were running like the wind. They could only run about wildly with them if they didn’t want to fall behind.

Nan Chen understood their hard work, but he couldn’t help it. The survival of the fittest was the law of nature, and no one could get away unscathed in the jungle.

Nan Chen exited the elevator and fished for his car keys.

The chauffeur had left work long ago. Nan Chen would never let him stay up late with him as he didn’t think it was necessary.

He was just about to get into the car when he suddenly noticed a mass of things on the ground.

That thing was leaning against a load-bearing pillar in the garage, right next to his car.

Upon taking a closer a look, he realized that that mass of things was a person.

Seeing how she had shrunk herself into a ball with her head buried in her arms, she should be asleep.

Approaching closer, he could smell the fragrance of orange blossom exuded from that person every now and then.

This woman is still here?

Nan Chen crouched down and looked at Ning Ran, whose head was shrunk.

She should have really fallen asleep because that posture seemed very back-breaking. If she didn’t fall asleep, it wouldn’t be in that posture.

Nan Chen silently watched her for two minutes and was surprised that he had been staring at her for so long.

Just then, the woman fidgeted. Nan Chen quickly got up. He couldn’t let her find him staring at her.

However, Ning Ran simply moved a little to adjust her posture. Perhaps her legs were numb because she went back to sleep after stretching for a while.
