Chapter 153 - 153: Can’t Kill You
Thinking of the scene that day, Nan Zhe closed his eyes and slowly exhaled.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already two minutes later. He calmed down and looked up at the man opposite him. “Have you had dinner?”
“Not yet,” Shen Yanqing said truthfully.
“Let’s go.” Nan Zhe laughed and stood up with his car keys. “I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Shen Yanqing looked at the time and thought for a moment before deciding not to decline.
Because Nan Zhe had drunk, he ended up in Shen Yanqing’s car.
After getting into the car, Nan Zhe supported his head with one hand and fiddled with his phone with the other. Shen Yanqing glanced at him from the corner of his eye. He seemed to be sending a message to someone.
As for who it was intended for, he did not know.
However, not long after the car drove out, Nan Zhe gave him an answer. “Go to Huai University and pick up Nan Ge first.”
“Okay.”
Nan Ge was dumbfounded when she got into the car.
She had just finished eating takeout with her roommates and was eating the dessert Shen Yanqing had sent over when she received a WeChat message from her brother.
The general content was that her brother asked her if she had eaten, and she said that she had. Then, her brother replied: [You haven’t eaten, right? Then come out and eat with me.]
.. ‘ Nan Ge thought that there was something wrong with her brother’s eyes.
She wanted to refuse and did not want to go out at this time. However, when she thought about how her brother was still with Shen Yanqing, she agreed.
She sat in the back seat and inched forward, looking left and right. Then she asked, “Have you two been drinking?”
As soon as she got closer, she could smell the obvious smell of alcohol. For a moment, she could not tell who it was.
“I didn’t drink.” Shen Yanqing immediately cut ties.
Only then did Nan Ge relax.
Seeing this, Nan Zhe raised his hand and poked her head. “Don’t you care about your brother’s life at all?”
“He can’t drink. It doesn’t matter how much you drink. You won’t die.”
After retorting, Nan Ge was still worried about Nan Zhe. She asked again, “Just look at the time. You haven’t even eaten. Why are you drinking?”
The sky had just darkened, but the smell of alcohol on her brother’s body was already obvious.
Nan Zhe ignored her.
After that, the car was very silent all the way to the restaurant.
Nan Ge was not hungry at all. She sat there as if she was here to make up the numbers.
Shen Yanqing cut the steak for her. She shook her head and could not eat it at all.
While her brother was eating with his head lowered, Nan Ge tugged at Shen Yanqing’s sleeve and asked softly, “What’s going on?” The atmosphere was a little strange.
“What did you talk about before? Did you quarrel?”
Nan Ge was worried.
Shen Yanqing shook his head gently at her, but he hesitated for a moment. He pursed his lips and shook his head, indicating for her not to ask.
Nan Ge looked confused and increasingly curious.
However, Shen Yanqing did not let her ask. She hesitated and did not say anything.
About ten minutes later, Nan Zhe took the initiative to speak as if he was finally full.
“Nan Ge.”
“Huh?” Nan Ge quickly sat up straight after being called out. She placed her hand on her lap and stared fixedly at Nan Zhe.
The next second, Nan Zhe took something out of his pocket and threw it at her.
Nan Ge shrank her shoulders in fear and reached out to catch it.
“New car keys.”
“! ! !” Nan Ge widened her eyes and quickly looked down at the thing in her hand. “Really?!”
Nan Zhe did not answer her. He only said, “It will be sent to my apartment tomorrow. You can go over yourself when the time comes.”
Hearing this, Nan Ge knew that it was true.
“Thank you, Brother!”
Nan Zhe nodded and took a sip of red wine. He actually asked again, “Is there anything else you want?”
Nan Gels hand that was holding the car keys paused.
Nan Zhe looked up and glanced at her. “Why are you looking at me?”
“No. I… don’t have anything I want.”
Nan Ge felt that her brother was most likely trying to fish a reaction out of her. If she really said something, she would probably hear a certain someone’s sarcastic voice in the next second.
Unexpectedly, her brother insisted. “Really? If you pass up on the opportunity, I won’t ask again.”
“Uh.” His tone and expression were very serious. Nan Ge was a little uncertain, so she probed, “Well, there is something I want. The boy group I like is about to release a new album. If it’s convenient, can you help me get a few?”
“Sure.” Nan Zhe nodded and noted it down seriously. “Anything else?”
Nan Ge blinked and felt that this test did not seem to have much strength, so she hesitated and said, “I saw an auction yesterday and saw a yellow diamond that looked quite good. I think it should be just right to make a ring.”
“It’s a little expensive, but I like it.”
After saying this, Nan Ge knew that she was not far from being scolded.
Just wait. In less than three seconds, her brother would definitely greet her warmly.
Three.
Two.
One…
As expected, when he heard this, Nan Zhe suddenly looked up at her with a scrutinizing gaze.
It’s here, it’s here!
He finally could not hold it in anymore! Was he finally going to scold her?
In the end, he said, “No problem. Which auction is it? Send it to me. I’ll get someone to buy it.”
“About seven or seven digits?” Nan Ge felt that it was because she did not quote a price.
“It’s alright. It’s not very expensive.” Nan Zhe looked indifferent. “If you want to pay less for it, go take a couple of bottles and juggle with them.”
There was mockery, but why was it still different from what she had imagined?
Did Nan Zhe take the wrong medicine when he went out?
She tried her best to say that she did not want it and was just saying it casually. However, her brother became serious and even felt that she was insulting him.
He had to buy it.
Hence, after supper, Nan Ge inexplicably had a yellow diamond.
When he asked her out, he did not say that she would have any unexpected gains.
By the time they finished eating, Nan Zhe had already drunk a lot. Nan Ge asked Shen Yanqing to help send Nan Zhe back. Anyway, the two of them lived in the same neighborhood, so it was convenient.
However, Nan Zhe waved his hand. He called his friend over to bring him back to Jiang City.
“It’s already so late. Why are you still going home?” Nan Ge was worried about him and reached out to help him. “Why don’t you go back tomorrow morning?” “No. I have a meeting tomorrow morning. I won’t be able to make it in time.”
Nan Zhe pushed Nan Ge towards Shen Yanqing. “It’s getting late. Send her back to school. My friend will be here in a few minutes.”
“Let’s wait with you for a while.” Shen Yanqing was a little worried.
Nan Ge nodded in agreement. “Yes, yes, yes. A few minutes won’t make a difference.”
Since they had said so, Nan Zhe could not be bothered to force them. He leaned against Shen Yanqing’s car and had a headache.
Seeing that he looked a little uncomfortable, Nan Ge was even more worried.
“Brother, are you alright?”
She took small steps forward and grabbed his arm. She was a little worried. “Rest in Huai City tonight. Shen Yanqing and I will send you back tomorrow, okay?”
“I feel that you’re a little drunk.. Are you dizzy?”
