Chapter 52 - 52 Don’t Make Me Hit You

52 Don’t Make Me Hit You

“Brother…”

Nan Ge was so frightened that she did not dare to pick up the apple. She blushed and grabbed Nan Zhe’s hand.

Nan Zhe was preoccupied with defending his little sister. He was so angry that he did not have time to deal with Nan Ge. He reached his hand out and pushed her little head away.

“Move aside.”

!!

“Do you see that, Little Aunt?” Nan Zhe stood up as if he was showing everyone a treasure. He raised his phone and circled the people in the living room.

“This is genuinely Shen Yanqing.”

“Tell me. Why do you think Nan Ge isn’t good enough?”

“She’s good-looking and cute.”

“She has a hot body to boot.”

“She’s so smart that she’s an elite student at Huai University.”

“She comes from a powerful background and owns two properties in Jiang City.”

“What else could she possibly lack? Just name it.”

“Even the likes of Shen Yanqing want to throw himself at Nan Ge.”

“Little Aunt, you should know what kind of person Shen Yanqing is. Isn’t it said in the circle that he’s a flower on a high mountain that no one dares to pluck?”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Just look. Nan Ge doesn’t even need to pick the flower. He’s already throwing himself at her.”

“Even then, Nan Ge isn’t interested in him.”

“That’s why I said that if Second Aunt and Little Aunt want to find a boyfriend for Nan Ge in the future, you have to strictly follow the standards I just gave you.”

“Shen Yanqing doesn’t meet my requirements. At most, he can only score 60 points. It’s just the bottom line.”

Nan Ge was speechless. Who gave Nan Zhe the guts to say that?

Was he “picking a consort” for her? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Did she have the throne to inherit? No!

Even ancient emperors would not dare to do this, right?

Did Shen Yanqing only pass? Was Nan Zhe being a little too cocky?

Nan Ge could only use two words to describe her brother now. One was arrogant, and the other was crazy.

“Alright, alright.” Nan Ge was so embarrassed that she could not raise her head. She pulled the embarrassing Nan Zhe back.

Nan Zhe hissed. “Why are you pulling me? I’m not done yet.”

“Considering Nan Ge’s attributes, I…”

Nan Ge could not take it anymore. She covered his chattering mouth and begged in a low voice, “Shut up. Don’t force me to hit you.”

“…”

Nan Zhe widened his eyes angrily as he cursed in a muffled tone

This little brat had grown up!

“Shh.” Nan Ge glared back. “Even if you’re shameless, I don’t like being embarrassed!”

——

This farce ended completely with a shout, “Dinner is ready.”

However, during the meal, Nan Ge looked distracted and glanced at Nan Zhe from time to time.

Initially, their grandfather wanted to ask her brother to sit with him so that he could drink with him.

However, her brother did not go over and chose to sit beside her. He was like a princess’ knight and did not relax for a moment.

“Why are you looking at me?” Nan Zhe picked up his food and tilted his head to meet her gaze.

Nan Ge bit her chopsticks and hesitated.

After a pause, she leaned over and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “When… did you add Shen Yanqing to WeChat?”

She had seen it clearly just now. That WeChat ID belonged to Shen Yanqing indeed. The profile picture and name were exactly the same.

Nan Zhe was still smiling just now, but his expression changed when he heard this. He said proudly, “It’s none of your business.”

“…”

She realized that her brother was really becoming more and more like a husky. He could tear down a house without a second thought, change his attitude seamlessly and bite anyone he wanted.

There were no signs at all.

“No matter what, this has something to do with me.”

“Oh really? And?”

“Let me see your chat history again.”

Just now, she only saw the last two messages… She did not see the first two clearly.

“What’s there to see?” Nan Zhe snorted and calmly picked up some food. “It’s all fake.”

“Huh?” Nan Ge’s eyes widened. “Nonsense! That’s not what you told me just now!”

“Is this your first day knowing me?”

“I’ve always lied without batting an eyelid, haven’t I?”

“… You, you, you!” Nan Ge choked. After holding it in for a long time, she cursed. “You’re shameless!”

...

“Whatever.” Nan Zhe shook his head, looking smug and indifferent. “It’s not illegal to lie anyway.”

“Call the police if you dare.”

Nan Ge was speechless. Damn it!!!

How could she have such a brother?!

After dinner, Nan Ge refused to give up. She grabbed the drunk Nan Zhe and whined.

“I’m begging you, Brother. Please let me take a look.”

“Shh.”

Nan Zhe gestured for her to keep quiet. “Your brother is going upstairs to hibernate now. Don’t disturb me, okay?”

“You!”

“If you disturb me again, I’ll change the new convertible sports car to a cheap local car, okay?”

“…” Fine. She would shut up.

...

After watching Nan Zhe go upstairs, Nan Ge wailed and rolled back to the living room.

It was getting late. Her grandparents had already gone upstairs to rest, and the other elders were making dumplings.

Her two cousins were sitting at the side playing games. They did not drink much and were just slightly tipsy.

When he saw Nan Ge coming over, he only looked up at her and did not communicate.

Nan Ge ignored them and sat down on the armchair. As she watched the Spring Festival Gala, she took out her phone.

As soon as she opened WeChat, a steady stream of messages poured out.

They were all group messages wishing her a Happy New Year.

The red packets in the various groups were endless. Nan Ge randomly picked two and snatched forty cents.

Since she had the best luck, she even threw in $20 worth of red packets.

After sending the red packets, she exited and replied to the texts one by one.

She scrolled to the bottom and saw Shen Yanqing’s profile picture.

There were two new messages in the dialog box.

The latest one came 13 minutes ago.

Nan Ge hesitated for a moment and clicked on it shakily.

Shen: [Happy New Year’s Eve.]

[Are you eating?]

“Hmm?” Nan Ge hummed and lowered her head to type. She returned the blessing and said: [I just finished eating. What about you?]

[Me too.]

Nan Ge was already used to the speed at which he replied instantly, but she still did not know what to reply.

It was all her brother’s fault! It made her… very awkward now!

After a while, she asked casually: [Then what are you doing now?]

Shen: [I’m chatting with Baby Penguin.]

Nan Ge choked and could not help but cough twice.

Her two cousins could not help but look at her. “What’s wrong?”

“Do you want some water?”

“I’ll pour you some…”

“Allow me. Let me do it.” Third Brother rushed to pick up the kettle. “Sister, do you want hot or cold water?”

“…” Nan Ge covered her phone, frightened by their solicitousness. “I… I can do it myself.”

Third Brother refused to take no for an answer. He raised his hand and poured her a glass of warm water. “Come, come, take a sip.”

Nan Ge leaned back in shock and hesitantly reached out to take it. “Thank… thank you, Third Brother.”

She was not at odds with these two cousins. It could only be said that they were not very familiar with each other.

After her cousins grew up, they became nicer and stopped bullying her.

Of course, this was also thanks to her brother’s forceful suppression.
