Chapter 106: Don ‘t Be Afraid
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Yanqing had never thought that his first meeting with Nan Zhe would be like this.
He had thought that as agreed, the two of them would discuss Nan Ge in a quiet tea room or coffee shop.
From his WeChat conversation with Nan Zhe in the past, he was already prepared. He knew that meeting Nan Zhe would be a tough battle, so he definitely could not be calm. However, he did not expect it to be so intense…
The moment Shen Yanqing closed his eyes, he saw the scene of him raising his fist at Nan Zhe not long ago.
He did not want to talk about it. He was filled with remorse.
In Nan Gel s brother’s heart, he was not a good person to begin with, and he was not the best partner for Nan Ge.
Great, he did not leave a good impression on the other party to begin with. Now, he had gone from having low scores to a negative one.
Shen Yanqing exhaled heavily with mixed feelings.
Assistant Yuan took a step forward and comforted him. “It’s fine, President
Shen. You didn’t hit him hard, right?”
“Apologize later and things will be fine.”
“That’s right, that’s right!” Secretary Dong echoed. “President Shen, don’t worry too much. After all, he’s Miss Nan Ge’s brother. He looks quite easy to talk to…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Assistant Yuan turned to look at him speechlessly. His gaze seemed to be asking, ‘Which eye of yours told you that Nan Zhe was easy to talk to?”
If Nan Zhe was really a little easier to talk to, he could not force President Shen to make a move!
Think about it. What kind of person was Shen Yanqing? To be able to force such a person into a corner, it could be seen that the other party was not good-tempered at all!
Secretary Dong choked and continued hesitantly, “It’s fine, President Shen. It’s all a misunderstanding. You can sit down and talk to him later. Then, President Nan won’t really ask you to break up with Miss Nan Ge because of this, right?”
Secretary Dong swore that he had originally wanted to comfort President Shen. After he finished speaking, he realized that with Nan Zhe’s fiery temper, Nan
Zhe already wanted President Shen and Nan Ge to break up before the incident. Now that he was beaten up… Hiss, the situation was not good!
“Shut up!” Assistant Yuan glared at him. Every word he said had precisely hit all the sore spots. It was better not to say anything!
Secretary Dong scratched his head. “Anyway, we can’t blame President Shen for this. President Nan hid his identity last time and deliberately made President Shen misunderstand. He’s at fault too.”
Taking a deep breath, Shen Yanqing took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows. “Enough.”
He did not care why Nan Zhe had hidden his identity before, nor did he want to pursue the matter.
He only knew one thing. He was the one who started it.
It was enough to know that.
When Nan Ge came out, she turned around and was shocked to see three men standing in the corridor outside the door.
“You guys… Didn’t you leave?”
Nan Ge had just dragged her brother upstairs to apply medicine to his face.
Shen Yanqing had been following them from afar and sent them up. She
thought that he would leave after sending them up, so she wanted to come out and secretly call him…
Shen Yanqing finally moved. He moved his stiff limbs and took a few steps forward to approach her.
“No, I want to apologize to President Nan.”
“Also…” As he spoke, he wanted to hold her hand. As soon as he raised his hand, he seemed to have thought of something and stopped in midair, not daring to cross the line.
“We…” Shen Yanqing wanted to ask her how she felt, but he did not know how to bring it up.
She had taken so long to come out. It was obvious that Nan Zhe was furious. He reckoned that the breakup would be brought up again. He did not know what Nan Ge would choose…
He selfishly hoped that Nan Ge would not agree and could not break up, but his rationality won out.
He lowered his eyes and did not say anything. His hand quietly moved back.
The next second, a slightly cold touch approached his palm and grabbed it.
Shen Yanqing’s eyelashes fluttered as if a person on the verge of drowning had grabbed the last piece of driftwood. On this rare occasion, he disregarded rationality and held her hand back.
However, he seemed to be unwilling to stop at this, or perhaps he wanted to find a sense of security. His long fingers ran between her fingers and interlocked with hers forcefully.
Seeing this, Assistant Yuan found an excuse and quickly pulled Secretary Dong away. He could not continue to be a third wheel!
As soon as the two of them left, Nan Ge exhaled slightly.
“I’m sorry.” Shen Yanqing placed his other hand on her back and pulled her into his arms.
Nan Ge was stunned. When she regained her senses, she quickly patted his back and comforted him. “It’s okay. We didn’t make things clear from the beginning.”
“My brother is an impatient person and has always been impulsive. The situation was a little chaotic at that time, so I forgot to introduce you…”
The scene at that time could not be summarized by just “chaos.” Her brother’s mouth was like a machine gun. When he fired, he did not give anyone a chance to interrupt.
In addition, her reaction was already half a beat slower. At first, she wanted to introduce them to each other, but she was quickly interrupted by her brother.
This also caused her thoughts to drift further and further away, so much so that she quickly forgot what she wanted to say at the beginning.
“My brother has such a temper and is a little neurotic. Don’t be frightened by him.”
“He has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He’s just trying to scare you. He didn’t really want us to break up.”
“He just likes to make a fuss. He’s not very serious, but he always makes it sound like a big deal. See? Although he keeps saying that he wants to hit you, he hasn’t touched you in the end.”
From the beginning, Nan Zhe had been hurling threats loudly. He kept saying that he wanted to beat up Shen Yanqing and rolled up his sleeves. However, in the end, even if he was beaten up, he did not really fight back.
She Imew how ruthless and wild her brother was when he fought. In the past, her brother’s chances of being beaten were not high. Even if he was beaten, he would fight back immediately and beat the other party to death.
He had not made a move today and simply made a fuss.
It was a little like a dog held by a rope. When the other end of the rope was in its owner’s hand, it would provoke other dogs without restraint. It seemed as though the dog thought it was the number one dog in the world. If it was not happy, it would bite someone to death. However, when its owner let go of the rope and let it really touch the dog opposite it, it would quickly stop.
This was simply the same as Nan Zhe just now.
“My brother is still a good person. Besides, you didn’t hit him very hard. He’s just angry. After he gets over it, he’ll be fine. You don’t have to worry.”
“I’ve already explained it for you, and I know that’s not what you meant. Of course, I know what kind of person you are.”
“I didn’t expect my brother to be here today. I didn’t react in time.” After a pause, Nan Ge continued.
“Also, we can’t break up. Don’t listen to his nonsense. He won’t really make me break up with you. I won’t agree either.”
Her hand gently slid down his back. “Don’t be afraid..”
