“Later on, we also made a statement, but the fans were a little invested in them as a couple. There’s nothing we can do about it. We can’t stop everyone from talking. ”

“In addition, President Nan hasn’t publicly acknowledged any girlfriends in the past few years, so the fans think that they’re in an underground relationship. That’s why this news has been going on until now.”

“Actually, it’s all fake. Sister-in-Law, don’t worry. If President Nan says it doesn’t exist, it definitely doesn’t. You can trust him completely.”

“President Nan and I have known each other for a long time. I haven’t seen him dating or having any women around him in so many years.”

“If it still doesn’t work, why don’t we ask President Nan to bring you out for a meal? When the time comes, I’ll call Qi Jia along. We can talk while eating.”

Qi Yan,

Why did they suddenly want to eat again?

She was clearly just asking casually. Why did this matter seem to be getting more and more serious?

She was afraid that if she did not speak, the other party would be in a hurry to hold a press conference to clarify, so she immediately said, “It’s fine. Actually, I believe you. I was just asking casually. I’m sorry to disturb you.”

“Oh, it’s no trouble at all. It’s good that you didn’t misunderstand.” The other party smiled gleefully.

Qi Yan opened her mouth and gave up explaining.

She could only let him be.

A few minutes later, Nan Zhe hung up.

The living room fell silent again.

Qi Yan was still in a half-rising position, so her back was so stiff that it was numb.

Nan Zhe put down his phone and went to help her up. “Do you have to be so anxious? I didn’t say that I wouldn’t explain it to you, right?”

Qi Yan,

This was how it felt to be unable to make a convincing argument.

She lay back down on the sofa and only spoke after a while. “I didn’t misunderstand. I’m just like any other netizen following some gossip.”

Perhaps the way his good friend greeted her over the phone sounded ambiguous, and Qi Yan could not accept it. She was even more afraid that Nan Zhe would misunderstand something, so she tried her best to explain.

“The difference between me and them is that I know you, the person involved. I naturally have to ask when I get the chance. I don’t have any other intentions.”

She wanted to say that she just wanted to know about his relationship with Qi Jia without any inexplicable feelings involved.

It was just a question. It was that simple.

As soon as she said this, she clearly felt the breathing of the person in front of her become heavier.

She was lying on her stomach and could not see his face even if she looked up. Of course, she did not dare to look up now.

She hugged the pillow tightly and continued, “That’s right. The rumors online looked real. I thought you two were really a couple. You look quite compatible in the photos.”

Nan Zhe narrowed his eyes and suddenly squatted down to approach her. “Have you seen those things? Was it before or early this morning?”

His aura was too strong. Qi Yan subconsciously wanted to dodge, but there was nowhere to go.

She glanced at him and thought for a moment before admitting, “Alright, I actually saw it in the wee hours of the morning. I also went to search for news about the award ceremony.”

“I also know that it might be fake, but when I saw the video online, I have to say that you look really compatible.”

A few seconds later, Nan Zhe smiled and poked her head. “Qi Yan, are you crazy?”

Qi Yan pointed at his waist, not feeling that he was scolding him. “Did you only just know?”

Probably because he wanted to have a fierce debate with her, Nan Zhe sat on the carnet and kent his eves level with hers

“Come, let’s talk about this.”

“What’s there to talk about?” Qi Yan’s eyes widened. “So what if you’re not a couple? Brother Nan, why are you reacting so strongly?”

A certain someone seemed to have been poked in the wrong place and stopped talking.

“Forget it. Let’s change the topic.”

Qi Yan nodded. “Go ahead.”

“What are your criteria for choosing a partner? What’s your type?”

Qi Yan’s expression twisted.

“I never thought about it.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Nan Zhe continued, “Then think about it. We’re just chatting. It’s not an exam. Why are you nervous?”

“Hehehe, Brother Nan, you’re quite understanding.”

When she did not answer, Nan Zhe kept staring at her, as if he could sit here all night if she could not give him an answer tonight.

Qi Yan was quite cooperative and really thought about it carefully.

“Uh, I don’t have any standards, I guess? I’m not asking for much.” She counted with her fingers. “I probably want someone considerate, humorous, filial, and loyal. It’s best if we’re in the same industry and have common topics. Of course, he has to be from the north and within 20 kilometers of my house. In terms of looks, I don’t have any requirements. The taller the better. I like them tall. It’ll be best if he’s above 190.”

Nan Zhe was stumped. “… You call this not asking for much?”

At first, when he heard the first part, he felt that it was quite reasonable. There were indeed not many requests.

Most importantly, he also fulfilled these conditions.

Wasn’t he the spokesperson for ‘considerate, humorous, and filial’?!

However, slowly, it started to become strange.

It could be said that the last three conditions had nothing to do with him.

He was just short of giving him a red card and telling him to scram.

Qi Yan disagreed. “Is that a lot?”

“Do you think you’re choosing a concubine?” Nan Zhe was furious. “He has to be more than 190cm tall. Why? Do you want him to carry you while he plays NBA?”

Qi Yan choked and compromised. “It’s fine if he is not that tall, but he has to be around 187, right? It can’t be any shorter, or it’ll be no different from having his legs sawed off.”

Nan Zhe went speechless. ‘ ‘ Insult, blatant insult!

Damn it!

“Lower your demands a little.” He gritted his teeth.

Qi Yan looked at him tentatively. “Then, 18… 5?”

Seeing that Nan Zhe’s expression had softened a little, Qi Yan heaved a sigh of relief and muttered softly, “Then 185 it is. He’ll look decent wearing a high insole.”

Nan Zhe’s heart ached. Oh no, it was the feeling of a heart attack!

“I think you can relax your condition about living in the north slightly. What can you find suitable within 20 kilometers?” Qi Yan thought about it seriously. It made sense.

“50 kilometers, then?”

Nan Zhe looked resentful.

She glanced at him. “Ah, no? What about a hundred?”

“Still no? Then it’ll go out of the province if we go any further.”

“Why are you so narrow-minded? The country is huge and rich in resources. Will you die if you go a little to the south? Our ancestors have worked hard for so many years to recover so much land. There are so many areas for you to choose from. Why can you only see within 100 kilometers?”

Qi Yan seriously suspected that Nan Zhe was deliberately trying to make her feel bad, but she did not dare to say anything.

“Any further south is the Mountain City then.” Qi Yan thought about it and felt that it was alright. After all, they were in the north, so it was convenient to go home.

Nan Zhe said, “A little further south.”

“…If we go further south, it’s going to reach Jiang City.. We’re almost 2,000 kilometers away!”
