Chapter 6

The man in front of her seemed to have just taken a shower and was wearing a set of light gray home wear. His hair was not dry yet, and there was a white towel around his neck to catch the water droplets that kept falling.

At this point, everything seemed normal until Nan Ge raised her eyes slightly and subconsciously looked at the other party’s face.

A well-chiseled jawline. That was fine.

He had thin lips and a high nose bridge. There was no problem either.

His peach blossom eyes were fine too.

However, when all these features were combined together, it did not seem to be an ordinary déjà vu.

Two seconds later, the man’s face slowly overlapped with a certain face in her memory.

Wasn’t this Shen Yanqing without his glasses on?!

After the lecture, Shen Yanqing entered her dream many times. However, the scene in the dream was not harmonious. The man pressed her against the desk and held the printout of her college entrance examination results in front of her face. He said to her, “With your results, it’s your blessing to be able to go to Huai University. What else are you dissatisfied with?”

Every time, she would slap the result slip on his face and say, “If you want this blessing, you can have it!”

Every time, Shen Yanqing would smile and say the most heartless words with his gentle and harmless face. “My bad. I was guaranteed admission into the university.”

“…”

Taking a deep breath, Nan Ge swore that she never thought that she would meet Shen Yanqing again.

However, fate was playing tricks on her.

Just a second ago, when she saw “Mr. Shen” on the delivery information, she wondered why there were so many rich people with the same surname in Huai City.

In the end, she looked up and wanted to die.

With this kind of luck, it seemed like she could really buy a lottery ticket. If she won a few million dollars, she would not even have to deliver takeout anymore.

However, it had been a week. Shen Yanqing should have probably forgotten about her, right?

How could a busy person like him remember a small fry like her, right?

Besides, he wasn’t wearing glasses. What if he had very poor eyesight?

At the thought of this, Nan Ge was calm as she finished her lines. “Mr. Shen, have a good meal.”

Shen Yanqing’s gaze moved from her body for two seconds before he took the things.

Nan Ge thought that he really did not recognize her. She was about to slip away when she heard him ask in all seriousness, “Are you working part-time?”

“…”

Nan Ge wanted to kill herself.

——

Shen Yanqing was not feeling well today, so he did not go to the office. As soon as the video conference ended, the meal ordered by his assistant arrived.

The moment the door opened, he heard a familiar voice.

He looked down and happened to see her in a daze.

The little girl was wearing a thick white down jacket that made her look like a small glutinous rice ball.

Ever since the last time they parted ways at the university, he thought that it would be very difficult to meet again in Huai City. This was certainly some kind of luck.

Since the customer had a question for her, Nan Ge could not pretend not to hear it.

What if he gave her a bad review?

The manager said that a bad review would mean a $100 deduction in her pay. This was the first order she was given. She certainly could not go into debt before making money.

At the thought of this, Nan Ge squeezed out a smile and said, “Yes, Mr. Shen. I’m doing delivery part-time.”

“What a coincidence. We meet again. Hehehe.”

“We actually met twice in a week. Some kind of luck!”

Shen Yanqing took the takeaway and heard her words. A quizzical look appeared in his eyes. “Twice?”

“Uh huh.” Once in school, and one more time today.

Nan Ge saw him frown as if he pondered.

“Previously, we met on Huai South Middle Road and the bar as well.”

He corrected her. “This is the fourth time, to be exact.”

“Huh?” Nan Ge was dumbfounded.

Nan Ge had an impression of Huai South Middle Road. She did not go there often, and the only time she passed by recently was on Yu’s birthday.

She had also been to the bar on Yu’s birthday.

Nan Ge rarely went to bars, not to mention that it was almost the end of the semester. She was about to go bald from revision.

If it were not for the fact that she wanted to earn some money, she would probably still be sleeping in the library… No, revising.

Putting these two things together, she thought about it. The only thing that coincided was the hot guy she met that day.

Nan Ge frowned. If it were really him, then it was quite the coincidence.

She did not see the man’s face clearly that day, but it couldn’t have been Shen Yanqing, right?

While Shen Yanqing was not paying attention, she secretly sized him up.

His height, aura, and tone…

Shen Yanqing nodded. “It was me, Nan Youyou.”

“…” Alright, she was sentenced to death.

Nan Ge thought about it carefully. “You didn’t recognize me at school that day, did you?”

“I recognized you. I noticed you when you ran into the school building.”

“Then why didn’t you mention it at that time?” Nan Ge felt that this person was most likely lying to her.

“I wanted to look for you after the lecture, but you had something to do and left. I couldn’t stop you in time.”

In other words, she was running too fast.

Nan Ge choked. She straightened her neck and asked, “Then why didn’t you say anything when you were in the elevator?”

As if recalling the scene in the elevator that day, the smile in Shen Yanqing’s eyes intensified. “At that time, you had a lot of suggestions for my lecture, and I was listening attentively. It would be rude if I interrupted you.”

Nan Ge, “…”

The words “some suggestion” equaled she had a lot of “crap” to say.

She could understand what he meant.

“Actually, I asked someone to look for you. I was told that there was no student called Nan Youyou in the business school or even in the entire university.”

Looking at her indescribable expression, Shen Yanqing guessed that it should be a nickname or something. He lowered his eyes and said sincerely, “Sorry.”

Two embarrassing incidents in her life were brought up at the same time. Nan Ge closed her eyes, her heart as calm as still water.

If it were any other time, she would definitely turn around and leave in such an awkward situation. But now, things were different.

“What happened on the day of the lecture… I was just saying it casually, so don’t take it to heart. I’m the one who should apologize.”

Nan Ge did not want to talk about it. She had to make money, so she was desperately worried that he might give her a bad review.

“There’s no need to be sorry. After hearing what you said, I agree it’s time to reflect on my actions.”

“Hehe. As long as you’re happy.” Nan Ge put on a fake smile. “If that’s all, may I go?”

She looked up at him.

From Shen Yanqing’s perspective, Nan Ge’s nose and cheeks were red from the wind and she looked cold.

He frowned. “How did you get here?”

“The restaurant provided a little electric scooter.”

Did he think she could deliver food driving a Lamborghini?

Shen Yanqing remembered that his assistant had said that it had been snowing in Huai City since the afternoon. “Isn’t it snowing outside?”

“Uh huh. Yes, it is.”

Did it matter? Was he done chatting?

She was in a hurry to deliver the next order!

Nan Ge’s smile froze on her face. “Is there anything else?”

“One moment.”

“…” Nan Ge was confused as she watched him turn around and go in.

Hey! Where are you going?

Before long, the sound of footsteps approached. Shen Yanqing put down the takeout and handed her a gray cashmere scarf.

“This is new. I hope you don’t mind.”
