68 Conspiracy
“Didn’t you ask me to go?” Nan Zhe pretended that nothing had happened and casually threw the photo on the table. He crossed his arms and looked at her.
“If I don’t go, I probably won’t be able to enter this house in the future, right?”
Nan Ge secretly gave him a thumbs-up. “As expected of you. You know yourself too well.”
Nan Zhe chuckled and rolled his eyes.
!!
“By the way, what’s your schedule for that day?”
As expected, the husky was still a husky. The dog was as vigilant as ever.
“Me?” Nan Ge was stunned for a moment before she said naturally, “I asked Yu and the others out for dinner that day.”
As soon as she said this, Nan Zhe did not seem to believe her. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “Yu? Are you sure?”
“Uh huh.”
“We made an appointment yesterday. If you don’t believe me, you can ask him.”
Nan Ge looked at him without averting his gaze. She did not seem guilty and seemed to mean what she said.
Nan Zhe stared at her for a while. Seeing that her expression seemed normal and she did not seem to be lying, he nodded and believed her.
“Don’t stay out late and don’t drink.”
“Okay okay okay.”
“I’m going to sleep for a while more.” Nan Zhe yawned and was about to get up.
Seeing him go out, Nan Ge heaved a sigh of relief.
Yu was smart. He had told her on the phone last night that Nan Zhe would definitely ask about her movements on Valentine’s Day. Then, Yu had taught her how to get away with it.
Fortunately, it was an open-book exam this time. Otherwise, she would really fail.
From the looks of it, Yu had served her well.
Nan Ge looked up and patted her chest. Just as she was about to get up and wash the cup Nan Zhe had just used, a certain someone’s footsteps approached from afar and actually turned back.
“…Why did you come back?” Nan Ge turned around and was shocked by him.
“Do you still have money on you?”
“Huh?” Nan Ge’s head twitched. She thought that he was here to ask her for money, so she said, “I don’t have money. You can’t ask me to pay for a blind date, right?!”
How could that be?
Nan Zhe knocked her head hard with his finger. “Does your brother look like someone who lacks money?”
“I’m asking if you have money to go out with them.”
Although the family did not control Nan Ge strictly and did not restrict her, Nan Ge was quite obedient and would not go to dangerous places.
However, Yu and the others were usually more adventurous. When Nan Ge went out with them, it was inevitable that she would go to some expensive places.
Recently, because of the new car, Nan Ge did not have a lot of money.
She had saved all the pocket money her parents gave her. He knew this.
Her family had taught her since she was young that she could not get anything without working hard.
If she wanted to obtain something, she had to work hard.
He had said that as long as she delivered enough food for a month, he would make up for the difference in the new car.
However, she had her principles and would not go easy on herself because of this. She would still try her utmost to do her best.
He had always felt that his sister was too naive. Sometimes, she was indeed silly and easily deceived.
However, he did not think that it was a flaw.
To be sincere and persevere was something that many people lacked.
Seeing that Nan Ge was standing rooted to the ground with the cup in her hand without saying anything, Nan Zhe did not wait for her answer. He took out his phone and transferred the money.
Hearing the notification, Nan Ge turned on her phone and looked at it.
$50,000.
“Keep it. Don’t follow them blindly and go anywhere you shouldn’t go. I’ll get them to keep an eye on you. If you dare to race, I’ll remove your tires when you come back. Do you hear me?”
Nan Ge felt a little dizzy from the $50,000. She did not hear what he said clearly and only nodded. “Oh, okay…”
“Call me if it’s not enough. Do you hear me?”
“Oh, okay…”
Looking at her useless expression, Nan Zhe sneered and returned to his room to continue sleeping.
After he left, Nan Ge could not wait to accept the money.
She happened to want to treat Shen Yanqing to a meal, but she did not have the funds! She had originally planned to pester Nan Zhe in a couple of days, but who knew that he would come knocking on her door?
No, no!
Just as she was happy for a second, rationality knocked on her little head, waking her up quickly.
As the saying went, there must be something wrong when something was abnormal.
Nan Ge touched her chin and pouted as she looked outside.
The door to her brother’s room was closed, so she could not see anything.
Hmmm? Usually, when she asked her brother for money, she had to beg him repeatedly. Why was her brother so proactive today?
Suddenly, Nan Ge felt that the money was a little hot.
...
She felt inexplicably guilty.
She felt that her brother must be trying to do something to her…
Could it be that her brother had seen through her thoughts?
“I see!” At the thought of this, Nan Ge suddenly felt that everything made sense.
What a blatant conspiracy!
Her brother first pretended to agree to the blind date to make her lower her guard. Then, he gave her money so that she could treat Shen Yanqing to a meal.
When the time came, her brother could catch her with her hand in the cookie jar!
Hang on. Why did the analogy sound strange to her?
Forget it.
Nan Ge took out her phone and quickly contacted Yu to tell him about this.
After Yu heard this, his attention was not on this matter. Instead, he asked another question. “Is Brother Nan going on a blind date?”
...
“Uh huh.”
Nan Ge held the phone in her other hand and told him everything. “Anyway, he was quite resistant at first, but he agreed later.”
“Actually, I don’t think my brother is a lustful person. He usually feels the same way about people and dogs.”
He acted as though he was some privileged kid making a grand entry.
He was noble and disdainful. He did not care about anyone.
“So I think he might not have agreed to the blind date after seeing the photo. He must have seen through my little scheme, right?”
On the other side, Yu rubbed his chin and analyzed it carefully.
“Can I see that photo?”
“Huh? Does it matter?”
“Let me take a look first and see if it does.”
“Okay. Send it to you via WeChat.” Nan Ge took a photo and sent it to him.
The two of them did not hang up. After about a minute, an exclamation came from Yu.
“What’s wrong?”
“I know this person!”
“Huh?” Why did they know each other?
“No, let me take a look again.” Yu was a little suspicious of himself. After looking at it for a while, he said, “It should be her, but this photo seems to be quite old, right? I’m not very sure.”
“However, she looks 70 to 80% similar.”
“Huh?” Nan Ge could not understand a word he said. “Who is this person?”
It was unlikely for her not to know Yu’s friends. It did not make sense.
“Your friend?”
“Not really.” Yu said, “I remember that she was Brother Nan’s classmate, but I can’t remember if she was in junior high or high school…”
“However, this girl had always been Brother Nan’s sidekick at that time. Usually, when Brother Nan went out to fight, this girl was his number one fighter.”
“I heard that she was the city’s taekwondo champion back then?”
“…”
