Chapter 156: Bending Down and Kissing Her
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Nan family’s old madam’s birthday banquet was next week. During the family banquet over the holidays, Nan Ge heard from her uncle that the invitations had been sent out.
The Nan family had extraordinary status in Jiang City. Some people who could
not be present had even sent congratulatory gifts to them.
During the meal, it was the old lady who took the initiative to ask about her and Shen Yanqing.
Nan Zhe had told them that Shen Yanqing was wooing her during the New Year. They must have heard something and knew that they were together.
Therefore, after the old lady spoke, the two aunts echoed her. As if they had discussed it in advance, she said that she wanted to invite Shen Yanqing to the banquet.
It was not easy to reject this matter, but she did not agree directly.
She had hoped that her brother would speak up for her, but who knew that her brother was also very supportive of Shen Yanqing coming over?
In fact, she did not resist or mind that Shen Yanqing came to their house. On the one hand, she could only make a decision after discussing this matter with him. On the other hand, she felt that her grandparents did not like her and Shen Yanqing might be implicated by her.
Previously, when she went to the Shen family as a guest, they were very considerate. Everyone in the family treated her very well.
If Shen Yanqing came to her house and was targeted by the old man…
“My grandmother even personally wrote an invitation and asked me to pass it to you.” Nan Ge took out something from the sling bag beside her and handed it to him.
Her gaze landed on his face and she carefully sized him up.
Shen Yanqing lowered his eyes and was about to take the invitation. Just as his fingertips touched the cover, the other party’s hand suddenly moved back and the invitation slipped away.
He froze briefly and looked at her.
She looked stunned.
“I have to tell you something first.” Nan Ge held the invitation. Her knuckles were slightly white from the force, leaving a mark on the cover.
She was usually like this. All her emotions were written on her face. Shen
Yanqing watched her struggle for a moment before saying slowly, “That’s right. I haven’t had the chance to tell you about my family.”
Actually, Nan Ge was thinking too much. Shen Yanqing basically understood the Nan family’s situation.
He knew that Nan Ge still had two uncles, two cousins, and a little uncle. However, Nan Ge wanted to say more than that.
He did not disturb her and pretended not to know anything. He listened quietly.
“My grandfather has three sons. My father is the eldest son, and my brother is the eldest grandson. Other than an accident like me, my two uncles only have one son each.”
After hearing the way she spoke of herself, the man’s black eyes under his glasses narrowed imperceptibly.
He pursed his lower lip. “Wait a minute.”
Nan Ge nodded. She was surprised that he would interrupt her.
“I know I should hear you out first and not interrupt, but I still don’t particularly understand what you mean by accident just now. What did you mean?”
“Well, that’s what I’m going to say next.”
Perhaps because she felt a little uncomfortable under his straight gaze, Nan Ge tilted her head and dodged. Perhaps she felt guilty or something.
In short, through the lens, his eyes were dark and deep as he looked at her. It was as if he could see through everything with just one look.
“My elders, my grandparents I mean. They don’t actually like me very much.” She raised her hand to scratch the back of her neck, and her voice trailed off. “I mean, if you go back with me, I’m afraid they might say something harsh.”
“But my parents really, really look forward to seeing you. They have a very good impression of you!
“Before I came back, my brother said that I was thinking too much and that they would definitely welcome you. Thinking about it carefully, you’re so outstanding, so they should like you. However, I’m worried that because of me, I’ll more or less implicate you.”
“Our family doesn’t have any scheming stories. Father and his brothers have a good relationship. When my three brothers were young, they were very outstanding and dazzling. When I was younger, I was a little… stupid. I stuttered a lot and wasn’t likable, so Grandpa and Grandma didn’t care so much about me.”
“Later on, my brother helped by getting back at them, so he got into an argument with them, including my other aunts and cousins. For this, they had some bad opinions about me. Fortunately, I’ve grown up now. In addition, Dad, Mom, and Brother usually help me, so things are much better now. That’s about it.”
“You don’t have to worry too much. Our family isn’t particularly complicated.
Anyway… I’ll definitely protect you!”
It was not as exaggerated as in the television dramas, and there was not much resentment.
After hearing her words, Shen Yanqing’s frown never relaxed.
Actually, Nan Ge’s words did not need to be so complicated. It could be summarized in four words.
Even though she said it tactfully, he understood.
At the end of the day, it was just a case of favoring boys over girls.
Shen Yanqing did not expect the elders of the Nan family to have such feudal thoughts. Did they not like their granddaughter?
Nan Ge had never mentioned this before, and Nan Zhe had never told him.
But soon, the surprise was replaced by heartache.
“I didn’t want to tell you, but I was afraid that you would be targeted and think that our family doesn’t like you. I wanted to give you a heads-up first.” “If they say anything that you don’t like, don’t take it to heart.”
“Especially my grandparents. All my life, they treat my brother very well and indulge him, but they treat everyone else the same.”
Seeing that he did not speak for a long time, Nan Ge looked away. She scratched her face with her fingers and pursed her lips, not daring to speak again.
Her gaze drifted and finally landed on a corner of the bookcase in the distance. She had just focused her attention on it, but before she could see what book was inside in a daze, the back of her hand on her lap felt warm.
The man grabbed her hand. A few seconds later, he loosened his grip and held it tightly.
It was as if something was constantly surging. He kept floating and struggling.
Just as he was about to grab a piece of driftwood, Nan Ge subconsciously looked up into his eyes.
His usually clear eyes were a little cloudy at this moment, making her unable to see the emotions in his eyes clearly.
However, with this glance, the man suddenly let go and abandoned the driftwood in front of him, willing to sink for her.
Nan Ge blinked. Just as she was about to lower her head to look for his hand, a familiar warmth pressed against the back of her neck, forcing her to lean forward and approach the person in front of her. Her eyes fled in panic and finally met his gaze.
“I’m sorry.”
With his free hand, he removed his glasses.
“Huh?”
Nan Ge was inexplicably stunned. She did not understand why he was apologizing. However, the next second, Shen Yanqing told her the answer with his actions.
Shen Yanqing placed his hand behind her head and pressed her against him. Without hesitation, he leaned over and kissed her.
The moment their lips touched, Nan Ge’s eyes widened, her heart stopped beating, and her entire body heated up.
Especially on her lips. It was as hot as the look in his eyes a second before he kissed her..
