76 Selling Romance
On Valentine’s Day.
Nan Ge began to keep a low profile and wait quietly.
She had been observing Nan Zhe like a mobile monitor.
In the afternoon, Nan Zhe changed his clothes and prepared to go out with the gift and car keys.
Hearing the commotion from the elevator, Nan Ge quickly turned around and lay on the sofa to look.
Seeing that Nan Zhe was ready to leave, she held back her laughter and asked seriously, “Brother, are you going out now?”
“Isn’t it too early? It’s only two in the afternoon. Aren’t you going to take a nap?”
“Why are you so talkative today?” When Nan Zhe passed by her, he knocked on her head. “Mind your own business.”
“…” Nan Ge was already feeling guilty, so she immediately fell silent and pretended to be obedient.
“By the way, don’t stay out too late.”
“Oh, okay.” Nan Ge nodded vigorously.
Nan Zhe looked away in satisfaction. “I’m leaving.”
“Bye!”
Nan Ge waved her hand happily. “I wish you a smooth blind date!”
Nan Zhe did not turn around. He raised his hand and waved it behind him, indicating that she was permitted to leave.
After Nan Zhe left, Nan Ge quietly slipped to the window. It was not until she saw his car slowly drive out of the garage that she was completely relieved. She cheered and went upstairs to put on makeup.
Nan Zhe had chosen a car in the garage for a long time. He had always been passionate about supercars, but he eventually picked a more mature car.
Usually, Young Master Nan would be as high-profile as he could when he went out on the streets. Today was really an exception.
——
Three hours later, Nan Ge went downstairs on time.
Her parents were all insiders. When they saw her come down, they only gave her a few simple instructions and asked the driver to send her over.
In her parents’ opinion, she could not drive yet, so Nan Ge did not secretly drive her car.
The driver at home drove steadily and sent her to her destination before seven o’clock.
Nan Ge specially found a place not far from Shen Yanqing and got out of the car.
This way, it would be more convenient for him to pick her up.
As soon as she got out of the car, she sent the location over. [I’m right here.]
Immediately after, Shen Yanqing sent an invitation to share their GPS locations.
Nan Ge was stunned for a moment before clicking on it.
The map clearly showed their current locations. They were only four to five kilometers apart.
After seeing her location clearly, Shen Yanqing freed one hand to text her and asked: [Are you by the roadside?]
[Yes, yes.]
Shen: [See if there’s a shop nearby where you can wait. Don’t wait outside. It’s a little cold today.]
After seeing the message from him, Nan Ge held her phone and looked around. In the end, she found a coffee shop and obediently walked in to find a seat.
[Drive safely. Call me when you arrive. I’ll sit down in the shop.]

This was an environmental map. There were not many people in the coffee shop.
Only then did Shen Yanqing put down his phone in relief and focus on driving.
Nan Ge did not turn off her phone. She returned to the location-sharing interface and ordered a cup of coffee. She sat in the corner and stared at the screen silently.
She really felt that this function was a great invention.
Looking at the profile picture that was constantly approaching her, Nan Ge was nervous and excited.
She had clearly seen him countless times before, but she still had mixed feelings today. It was as if she was meeting an online friend for the first time. It felt strange.
At this time, the lights in Huai City had just been turned on, and the street lights had already slowly lit up.
Because of Valentine’s Day, Huai City was even livelier than usual.
Nan Ge sat in the shop and could see young couples walking by the street from time to time.
Everyone hugged and held hands. Everyone had a bouquet of flowers in their hands.
There were also people selling romance, flowers, and balloons on the streets.
Nan Ge held her face in her hands and looked out of the window and at the phone on the table every now and then.
As it was a busy street, the traffic was a little congested, and horns sounded frequently.
Nan Ge had overlooked this earlier, so she quickly sent a message to Shen Yanqing. [There’s a traffic jam here. Stop nearby. I’ll look for you when you get there!]
Shen Yanqing took the time to reply: [Okay.]
However, the icon on the map still approached her bit by bit.
Seeing this, Nan Ge hurriedly took her things and left.
She looked around but did not see a familiar car. After confirming the direction, she slowly walked forward along the icon.
——
Not far away, Shen Yanqing was walking over with an eye-catching bouquet of red roses.
He had taken his medicine in advance when he went out. Assistant Yuan reminded him that it was best to wear a mask again.
The road here was just as Nan Ge had said. There was some traffic. He could only park the car in the distance and jog over.
He moved so quickly that Nan Ge thought he was driving.
As they brushed past each other, Shen Yanqing quickly grabbed her hand. “Where are you going?”
Nan Ge was forced to stop and look up in a daze.
The man was wearing a black mask and familiar glasses, making it impossible to see his facial features at first glance.
She looked at him in a daze, as if she was looking at a stranger.
Shen Yanqing let go and pulled down his mask. He smiled at her. “It’s me.”
“!” Nan Ge’s pupils dilated as if she had seen a rare creature. “Why are you wearing a mask?”
Shen Yanqing was a little apologetic. “I’m a little allergic to pollen.”
Hearing this, Nan Ge turned her gaze and noticed the bouquet in his arms.
The bright red roses clung tightly to the man’s black coat.
The combination of red and black was especially eye-catching.
Upon closer inspection, one of the petals was still touching the metal brooch on the man’s suit.
The two of them stood quietly in the bustling crowd like a frozen painting.
When she came back to her senses, it was Shen Yanqing who handed her the roses.
“Happy Valentine’s Day.”
“Ah… Okay. Thanks!” Nan Ge was as nervous as a baby who had just learned how to speak. She stiffly took the large bouquet and hugged it in her arms, looking clumsy and cute.
“Happy… Happy Valentine’s.”
Seeing the smile on his face, Nan Ge lowered her head shyly. “Put on your mask properly. Do your allergies get triggered from skin contact?”
“I’m good. I took some medicine when I went out. I should be fine. There’s no reaction now.”
“Oh, okay.” Last time, Nan Ge only knew that he was allergic to alcohol, but she did not expect him to be allergic to pollen. At a glance, the tall man in front of her instantly became so fragile that she had to take care of him carefully.
“Then let’s not buy flowers in the future.”
“Actually, I don’t really like flowers either… Of course, the one you gave me today is very beautiful. Uh, but…”
Nan Ge stood rooted to the ground with a frown as if she could not figure out what he meant.
What she wanted to say was that he did not have to give her flowers in the future. However, even though she said she did not like it, it did not mean that she did not like the flowers today.
However, it was a lie that she did not like flowers.
“I understand. You don’t like flowers, but you like the flowers I gave you.”
“Ah, yes, yes.” That was what she meant.
He lowered his hand and grabbed her hand accurately. “That’s good. I’m the only one who can give you flowers in the future.”
