The light from the incandescent lamp poured down from above and landed on the man’s palm.

Shen Yanqing was stunned for a moment. He looked at the thing in his hand and looked up at Nan Ge blankly.

The little girl smiled at him as if she was asking for credit. She could not help but look smug. “Isn’t it cute?”

“I even drew its eyes.”

Shen Yanqing did not know what she was doing with her head lowered just now. He thought she was sending a message to someone else.

Therefore, he did not disturb her and silently checked a couple of emails.

Unexpectedly, the little girl sat opposite him and kept folding rabbits.

“It’s cute.” Shen Yanqing retracted his hand and asked uncertainly, “Is it for me?”

“Of course!” She nodded heavily.

Then, she said, “But it’s my first time folding this, so I didn’t do it very well. When I went to get the condiments just now, I saw a little kid folding. I secretly learned it!”

For a moment, Shen Yanqing’s heart softened.

“You learned it after looking once?”

“Yes, yes. Aren’t I smart?’”‘

“Yes. Youyou, you’re so smart. I like it very much.” The man’s eyes were gentle as he looked at her and smiled. “Thank you.”

Thud.

Nan Gels pupils dilated as if she had suddenly entered a dead end. Under his bewitchment, she bumped into a wall in front of her without hesitation.

When she regained her senses, she looked away and did not dare to look into his eyes again.

The soup base in the pot had yet to boil, but her cheeks were already hot from tne smoke.

After a long while, she muttered softly, “Why are you suddenly calling me

that…

Usually, she did not like others calling her by her nickname outside. She did not mind going by her nickname in private and would not take it to heart then.

When it came from Shen Yanqing, she did not find it awkward, but why did she want to blush?

Every time Nan Zhe called her, his tone was as stiff as if she owed him two million.

It was just a nickname, but it felt completely different when Shen Yanqing uttered those words.

For some reason, she felt a little moved. Why was this happening?

No matter how soft her voice was, Shen Yanqing could hear it. “Your nickname sounds good.”

Compared to Nan Ge, the first time he heard her name, it was Nan Youyou. Also, he had a deep impression of it.

She was just like her name.

She was very cute.

“That’s not true,” Nan Ge pouted and retorted softly.

“Then I won’t call you that anymore?” he probed.

Opposite him, the little girl lowered her head and ran her fingers across the table.

Seeing this, he had an answer in his heart, so he did not force her.

“Then I’ll just call you Nan Ge in the future. I think it’s good too.”

. ‘ Nan Ge choked. After holding it in for a long time, she finally could not help but raise her head and look at him sadly. “I didn’t say no.”

“You can call me whatever you want.”

She did not say anything and did not reject him!

Shen Yanqing was stunned when he heard that. A few seconds later, he could not help but chuckle. The doting look in his eyes was about to overflow. “I understand, Youyou.”

Nan Ge supported her face with one hand. Under his gaze, she turned her head guiltily and could not help but add proudly, “You can’t call me that when lots of people are around. You can’t let others hear it.”

“Okay.” Shen Yanqing agreed one by one as if he was conforming to an awkward and conflicted child. “Of course, we can’t let others find out about your adorable nickname.”

“Mmm.”

The two of them had just come out of the restaurant after dinner when Nan Ge received a call from Cheng Xia.

While she was answering the call, Shen Yanqing grabbed the corner of her jacket and helped her zip it up.

As soon as he suddenly approached, Nan Ge’s breathing slowed down slightly. For a moment, she could not hear what Cheng Xia said.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Nan Ge? Are you still there?” Cheng Xia’s question came through the phone.

“Ah… I’m here!” Nan Ge came back to her senses and happened to meet Shen Yanqing’s smiling gaze. She hurriedly looked away, afraid that she would be bewitched by him again.

“Go ahead. I’m listening.”

“Yuanyuan and I have contacted Su Hui. You don’t have to worry.” Nan Ge replied, “Has she returned to the dormitory now?”

“Not yet.” After a pause, Cheng Xia exhaled and told her the truth. “Su Hui’s boyfriend seems to have cheated on her. Yuanyuan and I are a little worried about her, so we came out to look for her. We’re currently at the karaoke near the university.”

“Huh?” Nan Ge was stunned. “Is Su Hui alright?”

“Yuanyuan and I just arrived. We’re drinking and singing with her. She looks okay.”

Nan Ge turned around and glanced at Shen Yanqing. She hesitated for a moment before saying into the phone, “Xiaxia, send me your location. I’ll go over now.”

“No, don’t. Aren’t you on a date with President Shen? Don’t worry, we’re here with her. Su Hui’s mood is very stable.”

Nan Ge clenched her fists in her coat pocket, but she still insisted. “No, I’d better go over.”

Cheng Xia had no choice. After hanging up, she sent her their location.

Nan Ge immediately clicked on the location. From her expression and the two sentences just now, Shen Yanqing knew that she had something urgent.

“What happened?”

“Su Hui has broken up. I have to go over and accompany her.” Nan Ge looked up at him and hesitated. “Um… why don’t we meet tomorrow? I have to go over today. I’m sorry!”

Although Cheng Xia said that she was fine, considering Su Hui’s temperament, she was really worried about Su Hui.

If they had broken up peacefully, she felt that Su Hui would not do anything. However, Su Hui’s boyfriend had cheated on her, so she probably had trouble accepting it.

Even if everything was calm now, it was just an illusion before the storm!

She felt that Cheng Xia and Fang Yuanyuan definitely could not handle Su Hui.

“It’s okay.” Shen Yanqing patted her head. ‘You don’t have to apologize. I’ll send you there.”

Nan Ge waved her hand and refused. “It’s not on the way at all. It’s already so late. Go back and rest early. I’ll take a taxi there myself.”

This was a bustling part of Huai City, so it was very convenient to take a taxi.

Hearing this, the man’s lips curled up and he smiled helplessly. “No matter what, I’m your boyfriend. I won’t let you go over by yourself. It doesn’t matter if it’s on the way or not.”

“Let’s go. Don’t make them wait too long.” As soon as he finished speaking, he did not give her a chance to refuse. He held her hand and walked across the road.

Nan Ge was forced to follow him. She only snapped out of her daze after taking two to three steps.

She was held by him as she followed closely behind him.

The man’s steps were big, so she could only follow behind him when he walked. She would always fall behind. Her gaze pulled back from the black shadows on the ground and she could not help but look up to look at his back.

He was really tall and his back was straight.

She pouted. At this moment, she suddenly had an idea. She wanted him to piggyback her for a while.

She wanted to lean on his shoulder and look at the stars in his eyes..
