Shen Yanqing sent her to the dormitory building.
Nan Ge had just finished a candied hawthorn.
Shen Yanqing handed over the two bags in his hand and asked her to share them with her roommates.
He had always been very considerate. Every time he bought her anything to eat, he would bring a portion for her roommates.
“You’re really handsome today.” Nan Ge held the candied hawthorn and her gaze lingered on him, her eyes filled with unconcealable admiration.
“Of course, you’re usually already very handsome. Today, you simply make people’s eyes light up.”
Shen Yanqing smiled. He had already heard Nan Ge praise him today.
The two of them stood downstairs and chatted for a while. He asked if she had time for the Labor Day holiday.
“Hmm. I think probably.” There was less than a month before the holidays, and she had no other plans for the time being. “Do you want to go somewhere?”
“My high school classmate is getting married. He said I can bring a date over. Do you want to... come with me?”
“Bring a date?” Nan Ge promptly heard the word and her expression relaxed for a moment.
“Yes.” Shen Yanqing did not think there was anything wrong with it. His tone was natural. “You’ve actually seen them before. They were the ones who ate with me at your brother’s restaurant last time.”
Nan Ge nodded perfunctorily. Judging from her expression, she probably was not listening.
Her mind was filled with Shen Yanqing’s previous words.
After a while, she looked up and smiled. “Sure.”
During the Labor Day holiday, Nan Ge did not have any plans. She would not be able to go out to her heart’s content during this time since there were people everywhere.
It was pointless.
However, Nan Zhe was different.
Two weeks before May 1st, he started to make plans and asked Qi Yan out.
However, Qi Yan didn’t agree immediately. “I’m not sure yet... If I don’t have to work, then it’s fine.”
“Alright, I’ll book the plane tickets first. We can talk again if something crops up.”
Since he had already said this, Qi Yan could only compromise.
As the holidays approached, Qi Yan tried her best to avoid overtime and make time for the holidays.
However, everything did not go her way.
When Qi Yan called Nan Zhe, she was also nervous.
The phone rang for a long time before it automatically hung up. She had no choice but to call again.
“I left my phone upstairs just now. I didn’t hear you.”
After the call was connected, he explained immediately.
Qi Yan looked at the night sky outside the window. “Brother Nan, I have to work overtime tomorrow. The assignment is quite urgent. They have to use it on the third.”
“I’m sorry. Why don’t you ask Yuan Chi and the others? You guys can go do something. Let’s meet again next time?”
“Alright, I understand,” Nan Zhe replied. He sounded a little annoyed but he was not angry.
Meanwhile, at the Nan residence.
In front of the island counter, Nan Ge sat opposite him and drank watermelon juice with a straw in her mouth. She silently listened to him answer the phone.
Just now, the servant came downstairs and handed Nan Zhe’s ringing phone to him. Then, she saw with her own eyes how Nan Zhe’s expression went from happy to expressionless in an instant.
At times like this, it was a bad idea to hang around.
Seeing that he had hung up, Nan Ge picked up her cup and stood up to leave. “Where are you going? Don’t you want to eat fruits?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Ge saw him raise his hand and chopped a cantaloupe.
Yes, it was chopping, not cutting.
Nan Ge shrugged. In the next second, Nan Zhe pushed the irregularly cut cantaloupe in front of her. “Eat.”
“...Oh.” Nan Ge put down the cup, picked up a piece that looked decently cut, and put it into her mouth. “Thank you, Brother.”
Hearing her thank him, Nan Zhe glanced at her indifferently.
Nan Ge did not dare to ask him about the phone call just now. She lowered her head and ate the cantaloupe silently.
She quickly finished eating and slipped away.
“You’re going back to Huai City tomorrow?”
“Ah, yes... Ahem.” She subconsciously spoke, forgetting that there was still cantaloupe in her mouth. As soon as she spoke, she choked. She tilted her head and coughed, her face red. “Ahem, ahem. Shen Yanqing’s classmate is getting married, so I’m going with him.”
“When are you coming back?”
“Oh, the day after tomorrow.” Nan Ge actually did not plan to come back the day after. She still wanted to watch a movie with Shen Yanqing.
However, her brother was not at home the day after tomorrow, so it did not matter what she said.
“Are you staying at his house at night?”
Nan Ge nodded gently. “It’s not safe to drive back too late.”
Nan Zhe could not be bothered to expose her. “Then are you going out with me the day after tomorrow?”
“Huh?” Nan Ge stopped eating. “Aren’t you going to Tibet?”
“Not for the time being. Ask Yu Yu if they have time. We’ll go camping the day after tomorrow. ”
‘...Okay.” Nan Ge turned on her phone and sent Yu Yu a private message. Yu: [Camping? I’m afraid not. I have a date the day after tomorrow.]
[Alright.]
Nan Ge tried Yuan Chi: [Brother Chi, are you free the day after tomorrow? Do you want to go camping with my brother?]
Yuan Chi:
[Isn’t your brother flying to Tibet tomorrow morning?]
[He said he’s not going.]
[How is that possible? He has been bragging for a week. I said that I wanted to go with him, but he said that he had a partner and told me to get lost and stay as far away as possible from him.]
After a pause, Yuan Chi asked again: [Who is he going to Tibet with?]
[Uh.] Nan Ge could roughly guess who her brother was going with, but this was no longer important.
[Anyway, he’s not going. He seems to be quite free in the next couple of days, so you should go camping with him the day after tomorrow.]
[Just two guys going camping?]
[Then ask the other guys if they have time.]
[They’ve probably made plans to do something. Oh right, are you going?]
She still wanted to spend the holidays with Shen Yanqing.
However, her brother seemed to need her shoulder now.
In the end, she chose to compromise. She got out of the chat group, swiped down to Shen Yanqing’s chat group, and sent an emoji.
The other party replied very quickly.
Nan Ge typed with both hands: [Do you want to go camping with my brother and a friend of my brother you met last time?]
[Sure. Let’s do it tomorrow night. After the wedding, I’ll go back to Jiang City with you.]
“Alright, alright! All done.” Nan Ge put away her phone with relief and smiled harmlessly at Nan Zhe.
Nan Zhe did not know how many people she had asked for the camping trip, but they were definitely the people around them, so he did not ask for details.
The next evening, Shen Yanqing brought Nan Ge out of the hotel.
After getting into the car, Nan Ge was still thinking about the wedding.
Nan Ge could not remember the last time she attended someone else’s wedding, but she quite liked such occasions.
After today, she had officially gotten to know Shen Yanqing’s friends.
Because they were leaving tomorrow morning, Nan Zhe knew that Nan Ge would be back early tonight, so he planned to bring her to buy some things first.
He waited at the door and finally saw a car turn in.
It was not Nan Gels car.
However, it looked quite familiar.
After the car stopped, the driver’s door opened first. Their eyes met. Nan Zhe crossed his arms and tilted his head. “What are you doing here?”
His future brother-in-law smiled at him. “Nan Ge and I are going camping with you. ”
His genial gaze did not look like he was going camping with his future brother-in-law. Instead, he looked like he was taking his stupid son out after his son had crashed his date with his wife.
Nan Zhe was speechless. He was already quite unhappy about being stood up. Now, he was even angrier..
