32: She Was Charmed by Himâ¦
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Nan Yanâs tone carried a hint of anticipation as she asked, her voice slightly trembling.
However, Qin Luâs response in the next second shattered her expectations directly.
âNo.â Nan Yan: ââ¦â Seeing the girlâs face suddenly drooping, Qin Lu couldnât help but chuckle softly.
Nan Yan blinked her eyes and suddenly averted her gaze, her ears turning slightly red for no apparent reason.
She was charmed by himâ¦
It was simply unreasonable!
Qin Lu squinted his eyes slightly, a meaningful smile playing on his lips in response to her reaction.
He stood up and walked over to the girlâs side.
Nan Yan caught a glimpse of his long and straight legs from her lowered head.
In her mind, she inexplicably recalled the image of their first meeting when he had just finished bathingâ¦
Then a drop of red liquid fell onto the floor.
Oopsâ¦
Nan Yanâs face changed.
Was she having a nosebleed?!!!
âWhatâs wrong?â Nan Yan calmly grabbed a tissue from the table, covered her nose, and said in a muffled voice, âI guess Iâve been feeling a bit heaty these past couple of days, so I had a nosebleed.â It was definitely due to heatiness.
Nan Yan firmly refused to admit that it was because she suddenly thought of Qin Luâs post-bathing scene that she had a nosebleed.
Clearly, she had no problem facing more shocking situations back then, so why was she so affected now?
âDrink more water if youâre heaty and cut back on coffee.â âOh.â Nan Yan wiped her nose, made sure it wouldnât continue bleeding, and tossed the used tissue into the trash bin.
She gritted her teeth and decided to ask directly, âBrother, for no reason at all, why are you so good to me?â Qin Lu pinched her cheeks again, his voice deep and enticing.
âBecause I find you pleasing to the eye.â âAnd also, Grandma likes you.â Nan Yan suddenly widened her eyes.
He wouldnât actually want to turn pretend into reality, would he!
Qin Lu seemed to have guessed her thoughts.
His fair fingertips poked at her face, and he said, âYouâre still young.
Donât have wild ideas.â Nan Yan covered her face, blocking his mischievous hands, and said speechlessly, âBrother, can you speak without using your hands?â Her face was not dough.
What was there to pinch?!
A faint smile flickered in Qin Luâs eyes, and then he reached out to pat her head.
âFine.â Nan Yan: â?â He agreed, so why was he still patting her head?
Well, at least he didnât keep patting.
He was probably giving her face.
âGrandma rarely likes anyone this much.
Although she appears optimistic and strong, sheâs actually feeling quite depressed deep down.
Little girl, consider it a favor from your brother.
When you have time, give her a call and chat with her for a bit.â âSo, this is your plan.â Nan Yanâs uneasiness in her heart lessened a bit.
As long as she was certain of Qin Luâs intentions toward her, she didnât need to worry about other things.
âOkay, can do.â âGood.â Qin Luâs lips curved with satisfaction, and almost instinctively, he pinched her cheeks again.
âHow about having dinner together tonight?â Nan Yan was already speechless about Qin Luâs peculiar obsession.
She let out a sigh and replied, âWhat time?
I have plans with someone else tonight, so it canât be too late.â âThen earlier, so it wonât take up much of your time.â âOkay.â # The dinner in the evening was mainly to accompany Grandma Qin.
Even if Nan Yan hadnât agreed to Qin Luâs request, she would still have extra patience for Grandma Qin.
The meal made Grandma Qin smile from ear to ear, and she almost wanted to hold Nan Yanâs hand and ask when she would agree to Qin Lu, becoming their granddaughter-in-law.
Fortunately, she managed to control herself and didnât ask.
After finishing dinner, it was just past six oâclock.
Nan Yan received a message from Shen Junqing and raised her head to say to Qin Lu and Grandma Qin, âBrother, Grandma, I have something to attend to, so Iâll be leaving first.â Qin Lu nodded and then asked, âWhere are you going?
Iâll send you off.â âNo need, heâs coming to pick me up,â Nan Yan replied, shaking her head.
Qin Lu agreed and reminded her, âDonât come back too late.â Nan Yan: ââ¦â She noticed that after their conversation in the afternoon, Qin Lu seemed to naturally assume himself in the role of her brotherâ¦
âYanyan, Ah Lu is right.
When girls go out, they must pay attention to the time and not come back too late,â Grandma Qin said with a serious expression.
âSo, when youâre about to come back, give Ah Lu a call and let him pick you up.â Grandma Qin was doing everything she could to create opportunities for Qin Lu.
As long as she thought about this adorable and caring little girl, her eldest grandson not having won her over yet, Grandma Qin couldnât help but worry for him!
Nan Yan nodded and said, âOkay, Grandma, donât worry.
I wonât come back too late.â Qin Lu had asked Wu Yue to drive over, and the three of them waited outside the restaurant.
Shen Junqing and Wu Yue arrived almost at the same time.
Qin Lu saw Shen Junqing in the driverâs seat through the open car door, and his eyes couldnât help but darken a bit.
After Nan Yan got in the car and it drove away, Qin Lu finally sat in his own car.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Nan Yan: [Little girl, who are you going to have fun with?] Nan Yan glanced at Shen Junqing, who was driving, and lightly tapped her fingers on the keyboard: [Another brother.] Qin Lu: [Where are you going?] Nan Yan: [Donât know yet.] Qin Lu: [Be careful when youâre with a man, be more cautious, little girl.] Nan Yan was speechless.
Nan Yan: [Got it, brother!] So annoying!
Shen Junqing, with one hand on the steering wheel, exuded a lazy and carefree demeanor even while driving, a stark contrast to Qin Luâs commanding presence.
âLittle sister, even now, I still donât know what your name is,â his low, magnetic voice sounded exquisite, completely different from Qin Luâs deep voice, but both were a treat for anyone who enjoyed listening.
Nan Yan wasnât too bothered and casually replied, âNan Yan.â They had already established the brother-sister relationship, so not knowing each otherâs names was probably his style.
âNan Yan~â Shen Junqing repeated her name somewhat seriously, then suddenly smiled, âIt sounds nice.â âThen, from now on, can I call you Yanyan, little sister?â he asked.
Nan Yan raised an eyebrow, âDo as you please.â Qin Lu had stopped replying, so she casually put her phone back into her pocket.
Shen Junqing curled his lips, his seductive and sexy voice jokingly said, âLittle sisterâs personality isnât very cute, and she doesnât talk much.
If she could speak a little more and have a softer tone, it would be even better~â Nan Yanâs tone remained unchanged, âYou can find someone else.â âThat wonât do.
With Yanyan by my side, all I want is to pamper you alone.
Let others dote on the other little sisters,â he said.
âBrother just likes Yanyan who is good-looking and has a unique personality.â âOhâ¦â Nan Yan felt a bit pleased to be acknowledged for her looks.
Just that, if Shen Junqing could speak even less, it would be even better.
The car gradually veered away from the city center and headed towards the outskirts.
As a result, the speed of the car increased significantly on the sparsely populated road.
âLittle sister Yanyan, do you like watching car races?â Shen Junqing asked.
Nan Yan raised an eyebrow.
So, what Shen Junqing found exciting and fun in his message was car racing?
Her fingers casually buckled the seatbelt on her body as she replied in a clear voice, âItâs alright.â âIn that case, Iâll take you to experience car racing firsthand later.
How about that?â
