Chapter 60 - 60 Where Are You Going?!

60 Where Are You Going?!

Nan Ge hurriedly ran back to her room with her bag.

She took out the hangover medicine and knelt on one knee by the bed. She hit Nan Zhe a few times with the pillow beside her. “Hurry up! Get up quickly!”

“What are you doing!” Nan Zhe muttered as he reached out and casually grabbed the pillow she threw at him.

Then, he turned over and continued sleeping.

“Get up and take the hangover medicine. I’m going out. I don’t have time to care about you!”

“Shh, shh, sh. Don’t disturb me.”

Nan Ge raised her hand and slapped his back. Nan Zhe wailed in pain and opened his eyes. “Who are you? Why are you at my house?”

“I’m Nan Ge.”

“Who is Nan Ge?”

“Your sister.”

“F*ck you! What’s with your attitude?”

Nan Ge took a deep breath and replied patiently, “What about Youyou? Do you remember Youyou?”

“Youyou?”

“Uh huh.”

Nan Zhe exclaimed as if he remembered. He muttered the name, “Youyou… check it out.”

Nan Ge, “…”

“Get up first.” Nan Ge could not be bothered to explain to a drunkard like him. “Hurry up and sit up. I’m leaving after you take the medicine. Shen Yanqing is still waiting for me outside.”

The words “Shen Yanqing” were like a voice command. When Nan Zhe heard these words, he automatically rebooted and sat up with a pillow in his arms.

“Shen Yanqing? Did you just say Shen Yanqing?”

Nan Zhe narrowed his eyes and looked left and right. His originally turbid and listless eyes became clearer at this moment.

“Where is he?”

“He’s outside.”

“Hyah! Die Dog Shen!”

“Shut up!” Nan Ge took the opportunity to stuff the hangover medicine into his mouth and made him stop talking.

“!” Nan Zhe widened his eyes and whimpered. “Prick! What did you just feed me?”

Nan Ge chuckled and deliberately said, “Poison.”

“…”

Nan Ge put the medicine back in her bag and got up as she packed. “Alright, you can continue sleeping.”

Seeing that she was about to leave, Nan Zhe quickly hugged her arm. “Where are you running to, you prick?”

Nan Ge pursed her lips and resisted the urge to slap him. She coaxed him in a low voice, “Brother, open your stupid eyes and take a close look. I’m your sister. We have the same mother!”

This time, Nan Zhe really seemed to understand. He slowly opened one eye and sized her up. “Ah…”

“Can you really recognize me?” With the commotion just now, Nan Ge could not tell if he really recognized her.

Nan Zhe nodded gently.

Seeing this, Nan Ge finally heaved a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to tell him to go back to sleep, a certain someone raised his hand and poked her head fiercely.

“Nan Ge, are you stupid?! How many times have I told you to use your brain to look at the questions? Why didn’t you listen?!”

“If I sprinkled some rice on the test paper, even a chicken can calculate better than you.”

“…” After Nan Zhe said a few words, Nan Ge seemed to return to her nightmarish third year of high school.

At that time, Nan Zhe would scold her many times a day.

She could still remember what Nan Zhe usually scolded her.

Just thinking about those days made her curse inwardly!

She removed his hand and said even more fiercely than his tone, “If I had known earlier, I would have really bought you two bottles of poison! If it fails, I could mix some rat poison in your food tomorrow!”

Nan Zhe did not let her go. In the end, his mother heard the commotion and came over to take a look. She also saved Nan Ge.

Before she left, her mother said hesitantly, “Erm… Youyou.”

“Huh?” Nan Ge turned around and looked at her mother in confusion.

“Ahem.” Looking at her precious daughter’s confused gaze, Mrs. Nan was also a little conflicted.

However, after thinking about it, she still tried her best to say it tactfully. “Well, come back early. It’s already nine o’clock. Can you make it back in two hours?”

“If you stay outside too late, although the other party is Shen Yanqing, I will still worry.”

“Of course, I’m not trying to interfere with you making friends and stopping you from hanging out. I just think it’s a little late, don’t you think?”

“What I’m trying to say is that you have to come back early. Girls should be more cautious when they go out.”

“Okay. Got it,” Nan Ge agreed one by one.

She did not want to play outside for too long. After all, Shen Yanqing had to return to Huai City early.

“Then I’m heading out, okay?”

“Wait, wait, wait!” Mrs. Nan was still worried. She chased after her and asked, “Do you know the police hotline?”

Nan Ge, “…”

...

——

During the New Year, the nights in Jiang City were much quieter than usual.

The out-of-towners had all returned to their hometowns. The locals were all cooped up at home for the holidays. Most of them did not like to come out and walk around.

In the front passenger seat, Nan Ge clung to the door frame of the car, her gaze slowly sliding along the street scenery outside the car window.

Sensing that she was looking at the lanterns on both sides of the street, Shen Yanqing especially slowed down the car and watched with her.

“Are you staying here tonight?” he asked.

“Yes, I’m staying at Grandma’s house.” Nan Ge supported her cheek with one hand and shook her head steadily. “My brother is drunk and can’t go back. My father… will probably come soon.”

“Oh really?”

“Uh huh.”

She sat up straight and shifted her gaze to him.

“My brother is usually a king outside, but when he comes home… Tsk, tsk, Tsk.”

...

She could not hide the disdain on her face.

“My father is slightly better, but my uncle is the best. Anyway, my father is the one who loses every year.”

“Uncle has been the champion for six years… Oh, no, four years.”

“Because in the fifth year, my father cheated.”

Shen Yanqing could not help but smile. “The atmosphere at home is really good.”

Nan Ge agreed. “My maternal grandmother’s place is better. My paternal grandfather’s house isn’t that lively.”

Although there were more people at Grandpa’s house than at Grandma’s, Grandma’s side was still more friendly and did not have any rules.

Shen Yanqing liked it when she talked about this.

It was just as he had imagined.

A young lady like Nan Ge usually came from a family with a better atmosphere.

“What about you? You’re allergic to alcohol, so you don’t have to drink with your elders during the New Year, right?”

“Yes.” Shen Yanqing nodded. “However, I don’t spend the New Year at home often.”

“This year is an exception. My father is the only one in the family who drinks occasionally.”

“Have you always spent the New Year abroad previously?” Nan Ge’s big eyes were filled with curiosity.

Was this the life of a wealthy family?

“That’s not it.”

“My parents have been separated for a long time. Ever since I studied abroad, I’ve been spending the New Year overseas with my mother. After I returned to the country, I went back regularly every year. She’s alone there, so she’s a little lonely.”

“I see… Then why didn’t you go over this year?”

“Has Auntie returned to the country too?”

“That’s not it.” He suddenly smiled. “She has a new family this year. She doesn’t need me anymore.”
