83 Love You
When she heard the words “Huai City”, Nan Ge finally knew what it meant to shoot herself in the foot.
She closed her eyes in frustration and gently slapped her mouth.
She might as well not ask!
Why did she open her mouth?
Nan Ge took a deep breath and hesitated.
“Should I go to Huai City now? Isn’t it too late?”
Unfortunately, the two of them were on the phone. Nan Ge did not have the chance to recall it even if she wanted to. Nan Zhe had obviously taken her words to heart.
“Uh, this…” Nan Ge was in a dilemma.
What if her brother came to Huai City? What if they ran into each other?
If her brother was not allowed to come, her brother would go look for Yu to find her, but she was not around! Not only would she expose herself, but she would also make her brother lose trust in Yu. It would be difficult for Yu to help her in the future.
After thinking about it, Nan Ge still felt that it was better to let her brother come to Huai City.
In any case, Huai City was so big. It was unlikely that they would really bump into each other, right?
If he came to Huai City, she was not sure if she would live or die. However, if he did not come to Huai city, she would definitely die.
And she would get buried alive overnight no less.
Well, when the time came, Shen Yanqing would probably be buried alive. However, with her brother’s temper, he would have to separate the two of them dozens of kilometers apart.
While Nan Ge’s thoughts were wandering, Nan Zhe had already thought it through.
Before Nan Ge could say anything, he stood up with his lighter.
The waiter stood not far away and observed him for a long time.
After making a reservation, he came early.
However, when he came in, he didn’t order and kept waiting for someone. Even till now, no one came.
Just as the waiter was about to step forward, Nan Zhe walked towards him and threw him a membership card for their restaurant. “There are a few holes on the table. There are still hundreds of thousands of dollars in the card. You can swipe it yourself. Send the card to No. 18 Mingyi Mansion later.”
“Oh, oh, oh… Okay!” The waiter reacted and hurriedly sent him out.
Hearing the commotion on his side, Nan Ge was stunned. “Brother, where are you going?”
“To find someone to eat with.” Nan Zhe got into the car and buckled his seatbelt with one hand.
“Are you going to look for that lady?”
“Uh huh.”
“… Do you really like her?”
He was really going to chase her all the way to Huai City. This was too abnormal!
“Bullsh*t.” Nan Zhe sneered. “Your brother has lived for more than 20 years, but only one idiot has ever stood me up.”
“You want to stand me up? No way.”
Nan Ge asked curiously, “Then who’s the first person who stood you up?”
“You.”
“…” She shouldn’t have asked. As expected, she was asking to be scolded! Sob sob sob!
“I’m not talking to you anymore. I’m going to drive. You may leave.”
“I…” Nan Ge opened her mouth, but before she could finish speaking, he could not wait to hang up on her.
Nan Ge took the phone from her ear and looked at it for a few seconds. The corners of her mouth twitched violently. “You said you didn’t like her, but you hung up so quickly… You’re so inhumane!”
He had forgotten about his sister when he had a woman! Heh!
Stupid Nan Zhe!
Just as she finished scolding, her phone vibrated. A notification popped up on the notification board. [WeChat Transfer]
She clicked on it suspiciously and saw Nan Zhe’s familiar profile picture and… $20,000.
Ugly People Make Trouble: [Tell Dad and Mom that I’m staying in Huai City tonight. Don’t call me and don’t bother me. Understand?]
“!!!” Nan Ge hurriedly accepted the money and replied with an okay gesture. She said: [Brother, don’t worry. Not just tonight, I won’t call you anymore from now on if that’s what it takes! Hope your date goes well. I love you.]
Nan Zhe glanced at the message she had sent and snorted.
He did not reply. He logged out of WeChat and looked for the message from the person who had introduced him previously.
He could not find the girl’s address.
After a pause, he opened the map app and searched for “Qi Yan’s Workshop in Huai City”.
Soon, an address popped up below. This kind of software came with a photo of the destination.
As Nan Zhe drove, he casually glanced at two photos.
This was probably it.
——
After dealing with Nan Zhe on tenterhooks, Nan Ge quickly slipped back into the theater.
Seeing her return, Shen Yanqing heaved a sigh of relief.
After sitting back down, Nan Ge explained to him, “My brother ran into some trouble on a blind date, so we took a while to finish the call.”
“It’s okay. Was it bad? Do you need my help?”
Nan Ge shook her head and lowered her voice to tell him, “It’s nothing. My brother was stood up by the other party.”
For some reason, although Shen Yanqing could not see Nan Ge’s face clearly, he could still hear a trace of… gloating in her tone.
“Oh, right. You’ve met his blind date before.”
“Me?” Shen Yanqing was stunned.
He did not seem to know many people who overlapped with Nan Ge’s social circle.
“Does she work in the president’s office at Huasheng Group?” That was all he could think of.
There seemed to be seven or eight unmarried women in the president’s office.
Most of them should be the same age as Nan Ge’s brother.
“No, no.” Nan Ge was afraid that he would make more and more ridiculous guesses, so she told him directly, “It’s the young lady who helped us take photos at the fountain square that day.”
After she finished speaking, Shen Yanqing recalled carefully.
He had a clear memory of that night.
However, he did not seem to have seen what the woman who took the photo looked like…
“What a coincidence!”
“Right?”
Nan Ge chuckled. “I had the same reaction when I found out! Coincidentally, she was my brother’s former junior high school classmate.”
“Also, that girl was the city’s taekwondo champion when she was in school! She’s amazing! She has her own studio now and is a photographer!”
Nan Ge had always admired people with special skills.
Shen Yanqing smiled and patted her head. “You’re very good too.”
“How am I good?” Nan Ge asked in confusion.
She was not being humble. She really did not know what Shen Yanqing was praising.
“In every way.”
“I don’t think so. I’m stupid. I don’t seem to have any skills. When I was young, I wasn’t interested in anything except eating…”
Towards the end, her voice gradually softened and she coughed awkwardly.
“How could that be?”
“If you’re still considered stupid, how did you get into Huai University?”
“Oh, that’s true.”
Soon, Nan Ge was attracted by the movie. She exclaimed, “Why did they break up?”
“It must be some misunderstanding. The lady in front seems to like this guy… He’s probably the male lead, right?”
“Oh, I see.” Nan Ge got it in a second. “The usual melodramatic plot.”
Shen Yanqing did not know such things.
In fact, his attention was not on the movie at first. Since Nan Ge happened to step out, he was worried that she would not be able to keep up with the plot when she came in, so he watched it seriously for a while.
“I hate it when people keep getting distracted while they’re already seeing someone.”
“Did he?” Shen Yanqing could not tell.
“Of course. If you don’t have a thing for someone, why do you have to help her buy things? Men just like to mess around.”
Shen Yanqing, “…”
