Chapter 74 - 74 To Me, She’s Not an Outsider

74 To Me, She’s Not an Outsider

Nan Zhe realized that his sister seemed to be in an unusually good mood today.

She bounced around as she walked. She exuded a silly and sweet aura as if there were pink bubbles in the background.

Nan Ge took a box of yogurt from the fridge. When she was about to go upstairs, she realized that someone was sitting on the sofa with an iPad.

“Hey, Brother, when did you come back?”

Nan Zhe looked at her sadly. “I’ve been sitting here for almost two hours and you only saw me?”

“Erm.” Nan Ge really did not pay much attention.

“What did you do during the day?”

“I just hung out with Yu. I didn’t go anywhere special.” Nan Ge felt a little guilty. She pretended that nothing had happened and lowered her head to open the yogurt.

“You’ve been very close to him these past two days.”

“Huh? Did I?” Nan Ge recalled carefully and felt that he was not making sense at all. “Haven’t I been very close to him since we were young?”

This was not something that only happened in the past two days.

Nan Ge and Yu had a straightforward relationship.

The two of them were only one year apart and lived very close to each other. Yu’s family was in the jewelry business, so Yu’s mother had a good relationship with her mother. Later on, they were best friends. This led to the children of the two families slowly becoming familiar with each other.

However, when they were young, she and Yu were not good friends.

At least when she first started kindergarten, Yu always bullied her.

Later on, it was all thanks to Nan Zhe.

At that time, Nan Zhe was a little bully, and Yu had always admired him. Therefore, Nan Zhu took advantage of this and asked Yu to treat her better with the promise of taking him in as a follower.

Therefore, from then on, Yu seemed to have become a different person. Every day, he waited for her after school. He did not eat the snacks given by the teacher and secretly gave them to her after class.

The two of them slowly became friends. Later, in elementary school, middle school, and high school, the two of them were also in the same school. They were naturally close.

Although Yu often betrayed her to Nan Zhe, in other matters, Yu was still very reliable.

Hearing her words, Nan Zhe put down the tablet in his hand and turned to size her up. “I suddenly remembered something.”

“Huh?”

“You’ve known him for so long. Have you never liked him?”

Nan Ge, “…”

She felt speechless.

“Brother, I’m begging you. You should really change your career and become a detective.”



“You’re so paranoid at home every day now. I’d appreciate it if you could spend your time on something else and get off my case.”

“Why don’t you go out and torture someone else? Shall I pick up trash to make money for you to invest in?”

“Stop talking nonsense.” Nan Zhe coughed lightly and tried to reflect on himself. However, in a few seconds, he felt that there was nothing to reflect on.

Was anything wrong with him? Nothing at all!

At the thought of this, he sat like a boss again and examined the suspect opposite him. “I’m asking you something serious. Don’t change the topic.”

If not for the $50,000 from two days ago, Nan Ge really wanted to throw the yogurt in her hand in his face!

“I never fell for him,” she replied matter-of-factly.

“Why? You’ve known each other for almost 20 years.”

“You’ve been together day and night before university. Didn’t you have any such thoughts when you were growing up?”

“Didn’t you say that I shouldn’t date at a young age?”

“That means, you genuinely fell for him back then!”

Nan Zhe looked like he had finally caught her.

“…”

‘I didn’t. We were just very good friends.’

“Besides, I didn’t like playing with him when we were young. You were the one who insisted that the two of us be friends.”

Nan Zhe replied, “I’m a little regretful now. That kid looked the safest at that time. Who knew that he would grow up to look good?”

“In short, it’s good that you didn’t. That kid’s love history is too rich, so he’s a bad choice.”

It was not that he was insulting his friends. To be honest, the people around him made fine friends but were not good enough to be his brother-in-law.

He would be angered to death sooner or later.

These people’s family backgrounds were impressive, but it was a little difficult to find someone who took relationships seriously.

Nan Ge could not understand for a moment. “You don’t want someone with a rich love history but you don’t want someone without any experience either. Don’t tell me you really want me to become a nun?”

“When did I say that you can’t see someone without dating experience?” Nan Zhe felt that she had wronged him.

“Then what about Shen Yanqing? Didn’t you say no about him as well?” Nan Ge tilted her head and asked.





“Has he ever dated anyone?”

“Inside the circle, people say he never dated before…”

“Isn’t that great? I realized that you really have double standards!”

“Is that why I said you shouldn’t date Shen Yanqing? I just think he’s too old for you!”

Although he had not interacted much with Shen Yanqing, he had to admit that Shen Yanqing had no negative reviews in the circle.

...

However, the problem was his age.

As the saying went, three years difference was considered an age gap. As for eight years old… Wasn’t it no different from having an ocean straddled between them?

“If he’s only a year or two older than you, I can’t wait for you to date him and get married in a flash! I’ll even give you this much as dowry.”

Nan Zhe made an 8 gesture.

Nan Ge placed one hand on her waist. She was so angry that she did not know what to say.

She felt that Nan Zhe might not care about age. He simply hated Shen Yanqing!

This was because Nan Zhe had been the best in all aspects among his peers in the circle since he was young.

This indirectly led to his narcissism.

Therefore, he would subconsciously resist people who were better than him!

Thinking about it this way, Nan Ge felt that it made sense.

Indeed, it all came down to envy. Sigh. Men!

...

——

After Shen Yanqing ended the call with Nan Ge, he thought for a few minutes and called his mother, who was still in Jiang City.

The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.

“Why are you calling me?” The moment the call went through, the familiar and cold tone came from the other end.

There was no emotion at all.

In the early years, every time Shen Yanqing heard his mother’s tone, his heart would ache.

But now, he was used to it.

“Shouldn’t you tell me when you arrived in Jiang City today?”

“Do I have to report to you where I’m going?”

“You don’t have to.” Shen Yanqing’s expression was as usual. “Then is it right for you to interfere in my life?”

“What do you mean? Oh, that young lady complained, right? What was her name again… Heh, she’s really fast.”

“Shen Yanqing, let me tell you. Even if your surname is Shen, I’m still your mother! Why are you calling now? Why are you criticizing your mother for an outsider?”

“But you haven’t cared about me for so many years. Why bother me when I want to date someone?”

“Bother? I’m doing this for your own good! You’re really disappointing me.”

“Yes, you’re disturbing me.” This was the first time Shen Yanqing had lost his composure, but he did not regret saying this. “No one can warm your heart, so there’s no need to push all the blame on me.”

“She didn’t complain about this. My cousin told me.”

“Also, to you, she and I might be unrelated outsiders, but to me, she’s not.”
