Chapter 57 - 57 Bringing Baby Penguin Home
57 Bringing Baby Penguin Home
That day, Nan Zhe was still quite drunk. In the living room, he held a wine bottle in one hand and his phone in the other. He stepped on the sofa and wailed about wanting to fight.
It was also at that time that Nan Ge learned from his drunken words that the person who transferred the New Year’s red packet to her brother was none other than Shen Yanqing!
At that time, her brother wanted to unlock his phone and call Shen Yanqing.
It took her half a day to snatch his phone and throw it into the trash can.
However, her brother was in a fit of anger and did not stop even without his phone.
It was so noisy that the family could not sleep in the middle of the night.
Her father was so angry that he almost kicked him out.
Old Master Nan loved his grandson. He was afraid that his good grandson would catch a cold, so he got someone to give him some hangover soup in an attempt to calm the crazy dog down.
Unfortunately, it was useless.
Her brother was jumping around on the sofa, crying and making a fuss. From time to time, he would say, “It’s cold. It’s time to make Huasheng Group bankrupt.”
Also, he said, “I want to send Shen Yanqing to Africa to pick up trash!”
In the end, under her coaxing, her brother slowly calmed down.
It lasted until four in the morning when she said, “Shen Yanqing sent you the same message as me. He’s not biased at all.”
“How much did he send you?” her brother asked.
“Same as you. $8,888.”
“Then how much am I?”
“…$8,888.”
“Oh my. Did I get $80 more than you?”
“Huh? I-Is that so?”
“Hmph. Looks like he still respects me as his brother-in-law. Not bad. Not bad at all.”
Then, her brother hugged the bottle and went back to his room to sleep in satisfaction.
This farce ended in a hurry.
Actually, even now, she did not know where the additional $80 came from.
The next morning, her brother completely forgot about this matter, so she did not dare to mention it.
She even forgot to ask Shen Yanqing.
Shen: [I accidentally realized that he had released me from the blacklist, so I said Happy New Year to him. As for the transfer, it’s just a red packet for the New Year. It’s all courtesy.]
Looking at Shen Yanqing’s explanation, Nan Ge shook her head and sighed.
Obviously, her brother took his etiquette as a provocation.
Although her brother despised it on the surface, he did not seem to hesitate when he received the money.
After chanting the incantation and completing the spell, he clicked very quickly, as if he was afraid that Shen Yanqing would withdraw the red packet.
——
Baby Penguin: [Don’t take what my brother said to heart. He actually doesn’t have any bad intentions.]
“Yanqing, why aren’t you eating?”
“I need to reply to a text message.” Shen Yanqing smiled at the others and turned his attention back to his phone.
He had just come in from outside. There were others here, so it was not appropriate to send a voice message.
[I know. I can tell that he actually cares a lot about you.]
[I didn’t take it to heart. Just as you said early in the morning, he treats you very well.]
[Although his words might have been expressed more incisively, some of his words make sense. I know he’s doing it for you.]
Shen Yanqing was telling the truth.
Although Nan Ge’s brother had blacklisted him after accepting the red packet,
He had taken a closer look at the other party’s so-called “warning”, but he was indeed not angry.
From the perspective of an older brother, he could completely understand the other party’s feelings.
Even though he did not have a sister.
Baby Penguin: [Well, that’s true. My brother is very good to me.]
[But he really has no manners at all! I still have to apologize to you on his behalf!]
[*Sorry.jpg.*]
[You don’t have to apologize. It’s not that serious.] Shen Yanqing lowered his eyes and smiled. [If I were your brother, I probably won’t be able to stay calm either.]
[Men know men the best. There’s nothing wrong with your brother’s actions.]
Baby Penguin: [Oh… Is that so?]
[Yes. If I had such a cute baby penguin at home and someone coveted her and even wanted to kidnap her, I might get very angry.]
[However, from my own perspective, I still want to give it a try.]
Baby Penguin: [??? Try what?]
[Give it a try and bring Baby Penguin home.]

...
Nan Zhe had just opened the car door when he saw a certain someone in the front passenger seat covering her face and giggling foolishly.
Crossing his arms like Sherlock Holmes on a case, he stood outside the car and carefully observed the suspect. “Hey!”
“…” The smile on Nan Ge’s face froze as she slowly looked up.
She blinked innocently.
Nan Ge blushed easily, and when she was shy, her face and ears were abnormally red.
There was a hint of pink in her fair skin with the shyness of a young girl.
Hence, based on her abnormal reaction, Nan Zhe already had an inkling. “Tsk. What did Dog Shen send you this time?”
“Tell me so that I can have a good laugh myself.”
Nan Ge was speechless.
Two seconds later, she scratched her cheek with her index finger and whispered, “I guess you won’t be able to smile after I say it.”
Nan Zhe, “…”
...
After coaxing him into the car, Nan Ge changed the topic. “Why is your restaurant open again today?”
“Isn’t it a little early?”
Nan Zhe explained as he drove, “Not everyone is on holiday. Someone has to eat.”
“Oh.” Nan Ge nodded perfunctorily.
“How did you know that it was back in business? Did Old Fu look for you?”
The Old Fu he was talking about was the restaurant manager.
“Uh.” Nan Ge was not good at lying. “Not really.”
“Oh.” Nan Zhe was focused on driving and did not think too much about it.
After the car drove two kilometers away, he frowned and gradually reacted while waiting for the red light. “Shen Yanqing told you?”
Nan Ge said, “Uh huh.”
“I knew it.” Nan Zhe gritted his teeth. “Did he go there to eat?”
[Yeah.]
“Alright.” Nan Zhe gritted his teeth and nodded. “I’ll get Old Fu to write a sign and put it at the door later.”
Nan Ge was curious. “What sign?”
“Shen Yanqing and dogs are not allowed to enter.”
“Huh?”
Nan Zhe was a little smug. “Why? Are you sorry for him already?”
“No.” Nan Ge shook her head. “He won’t starve to death if he doesn’t go in to eat.”
“But Brother, isn’t the range a little too wide?”
Her tone was exceptionally sincere. “In that case, doesn’t that mean you can’t go in anymore?”
“Why can’t I…”
Suddenly, Nan Zhe’s voice stopped abruptly.
He seemed to have thought of something and slowly turned his head to look at Nan Ge, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
“Are you calling me a dog?”
“Uh. Brother, you know that I’m not good at lying.”
Nan Ge scratched her head and chuckled. “Brother, you do look a little like a husky.”
“Although you’re indeed a dog, you’re also the cutest husky.”
Nan Zhe: “…” Thank you.
