Chapter 147: Relationship Problem?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was not like Nan Ge had never seen the world before.
No matter how nervous she was, she could not really show her fear in front of the other party.
Her brother had always taught her this since she was young.
For example, when she was forced to perform on stage when she was young, she rejected it and was a little afraid.
However, her brother said that she had to go up even if she was afraid. If she wanted to cry, she would have plenty of time to cry after she got off the stage.
“So you’re Mr. Nan Zhengning’s youngest daughter.”
Mr. Shen’s voice was not loud when he spoke. Like Shen Yanqing, he was gentle.
When she spoke, Mr. Shen would look at her with a smile and listen attentively.
Mr. Shen’s hair was completely white. Unlike her father, who usually clamored to pull out a few strands of white hair, Mr. Shen did not seem to care about appearances at all and allowed time to leave a mark on him.
Mr. Shen was wearing a gray shirt today. Every button was carefully buttoned, and the cuffs were flat, but it did not look deliberate at all.
He was elegant and easygoing.
After seeing Mr. Shen, she was even more certain that parents had a huge influence on their children.
Shen Yanqing’s personality was the same as Mr. Shen’s.
After chatting briefly with Mr. Shen, the fear she had when she saw Shen Yanqing’s mother disappeared completely.
“Nan, come and eat some fruit.” Shen Yanqing’s stepmother brought over a fruit plate. Nan Ge quickly stood up.
Before entering, Shen Yanqing had told her that his stepmother’s surname was Wang. He usually called her Auntie Wang directly and asked Nan Ge to call her that too.
Seeing that the other party was about to pour tea for her, Nan Ge quickly reached out her hand. “Auntie Wang, I can do it myself!”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. Sit down.” Auntie Wang smiled and handed her the cup. “Yanqing’s father usually drinks tea, but I don’t think youngsters like it, so I brought some fruit tea. Try it. This taste should suit you better.”
“Thank you, Auntie Wang.”
“You’re welcome. Sit, sit. Don’t stand.”
“Okay.”
Auntie Wang sat back opposite her, her gaze lingering on Nan Ge. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her.
Sensing her burning gaze, Nan Ge looked up and blinked in confusion.
Auntie Wang could not help but laugh again. “Nan is obedient and cute. Your eyes are so beautiful. When you look at me, even I feel a little shy.”
Nan Ge blushed and smiled shyly.
The more Auntie Wang looked at Nan Ge, the more she liked her. When they were eating, she kept putting food into her bowl, so Shen Yanqing, as her boyfriend, did not have the chance to help.
The Shen family had a personal chef.
However, Shen Yanqing wanted to bring his girlfriend back today, so Auntie Wang had personally ordered the ingredients two days in advance and had been busy in the kitchen since the afternoon.
“How is it? Does it suit your taste?”
“Yes, yes. Auntie Wang, your culinary skills are really amazing!” Nan Ge was full of praise.
“AS long as you 11Ke lt.” Auntie wang neavea a Sign or rener.
She had asked Mr. Shen to ask Shen Yanqing in advance about Nan Ge’s favorite dishes or if she had anything she did not eat.
However, Shen Yanqing said that Nan Ge was not picky about food and there was nothing she did not like.
This put her in a difficult position. Early in the morning, she chatted with the chef at home about what dishes to make, afraid that Nan Ge would not eat well.
Basically, she did everything herself, including preparing the fruit tea. She was worried that she would neglect Nan Ge.
Fortunately, this little girl was really as Shen Yanqing had said. She was really not picky with her food and ate every dish happily.
During the meal, Shen Yanqing’s father was also quietly observing Nan Ge.
Shen Yanqing had mentioned to him before that Nan Ge was the daughter of the Nan family.
It was rare to hear Nan Zhengning bring his daughter out. The family treasured their youngest daughter very much.
It was normal for people from such a family to be arrogant.
However, after interacting with her for a while, Nan Ge was completely different from the girls he had seen before.
Looking at his son again, his eyes were glued to the young lady the entire time.
He looked even more nervous than the young lady.
Mr. Shen could not help but laugh.
At the same time, Nan Zhe stayed at home and looked at his phone from time to time.
Mrs. Nan came down from upstairs after applying a facial mask. When she saw that he was still sitting downstairs, she felt a little strange.
“Nan Zhe? Didn’t you say you were going out tonight?”
“I’m not going.” Nan Zhe lowered his head and fiddled with his phone.
Yu and the others had a gathering tonight and had told him about it early in the morning. He was going to go, but he suddenly lost the mood after dinner.
“Waiting for a call?”
“No.” Nan Zhe looked up at Mrs. Nan. “Go upstairs and rest.”
Mrs. Nan looked at him strangely. She kept feeling that her son was acting crazy tonight. He was too abnormal.
Nan Zhe had been raised freely since he was young. He was really raised freely, not like Nan Ge.
It was not that the couple did not care about Nan Zhe. It was mainly because the old man kept interfering in Nan Zhe’s life.
Nan Zhe was the eldest grandson. When he was young, he was the apple of the old man’s eye. The old man had helped him arrange everything.
Therefore, at that time, whatever Nan Zhe did was up to the old man.
Later on, Nan Zhe also grew up. Boys were not good at expressing themselves, and they did not like to communicate with their families at that age. Sometimes, when they asked, Nan Zhi would just brush them off with a few words.
Especially when Nan Zhe went overseas to study. They usually called Nan Zhe, but he only reported the good news and not the bad news.
At the thought of this, Mrs. Nan sat down on the sofa beside him and deliberated before asking, “Is there something on your mind?”
“No. What could be on my mind? Go up quickly.”
An expected answer.
Mrs. Nan pursed her lips and her expression turned serious. “Child, why are you still pretending in front of your mother? Tell me and I’ll help you resolve it.”
Nan Zhe did not know whether to laugh or cry.
After a moment of silence, he found an excuse. “Nan Ge went to the Shen family. I’m just a little worried.”
“Is that all?” Mrs. Nan thought that it was something big. “You’re already like this when she meets his parents. If Youyou gets married in the future, won’t you be the first to cry?”
Nan Zhe, ‘
Mrs. Nan was not so easy to fool. After a while, she went straight to the point. “Tell me the truth. Why do you have a bitter expression?”
“This company hasn’t gone bankrupt recently, right? Since work is going smoothly, there must be a problem with your love life, right?”
Nan Zhe sat up straight and subconsciously wanted to retort. However, Mrs. Nan did not give him a chance to speak at all. She continued, “You have nothing to do with Qi Jia from your company. Then there should be another girl you like, right?”
“I’m not sure either.” Nan Zhe held it in for a long time before saying these words.
Mrs.. Nan replied, “Why are you not sure? Can’t you tell if you like her or not? Is the thing on your neck just a decoration?”
