Chapter 191: They Should Stay Together
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Just from the caller ID and Shen Yanqing’s gentle and doting tone, everyone present knew who was on the other end of the phone.
Everyone held their breaths and focused, wishing they could hear what the person on the other end of the line said.
After hearing Shen Yanqing’s words, everyone came to a realization. She called to spot-check him.
Everyone thought that Shen Yanqing was really going to start a video call. The higher-ups hurriedly tidied their clothes and smiled. They were as formal as they could be.
Were they joking? The person on the other end of the line was the future lady boss!
It could be considered that she had a say in their future fate.
Unfortunately, Shen Yanqing did not have the chance to video call her. After he suggested it, Nan Ge rejected him.
On the phone, the young lady seemed to have placed her phone very close to her. Her light breathing stirred his thoughts. A moment later, he heard the patter of rain hidden under her voice.
In the summer, it often rained in Huai City.
Every summer, during these months, there would be a few downpours. Jiang City was nearby. Occasionally, it would rain, but the rain was usually never as heavy as in Huai City.
Was it raining in Jiang City tonight?
Shen Yanqing thought about the weather forecast that he had flipped through in the car in the evening. He had carefully paid attention to the weather in Jiang City. It seemed to have rained lightly this morning, but it stopped before noon.
It was still raining at night, and the rain was getting heavier. Huai City was the only place where it would not stop.
As if having a telepathic moment, he covered his phone and stood up. Under everyone’s surprised gazes, he smiled faintly and said, “I’ll go out and pick her up. You guys eat first.”
“Ah, okay, okay.” Assistant Yuan reacted the fastest.
After watching the man leave the private room, everyone looked at each other. A few seconds of silence later, they exploded.
A few higher-ups stood up uneasily and quickly put on their suit jackets again. They were so serious that they looked like they were about to participate in an interview.
Seeing this, the people in the president’s office became inexplicably nervous.
However, on second thought, they found it strange. They had already interacted with Nan Ge. Why were they still nervous??
The call ended unknowingly. Shen Yanqing looked down at the time and guessed that he must have accidentally pressed the screen.
He called back, but the other party did not pick up.
He subconsciously quickened his pace as he walked out. This restaurant was relatively quiet. The Chinese-styled corridor was winding. Afraid she would not be able to find him or have trouble explaining things to the receptionist, he quickened his steps at the thought of this. After going down a few steps, he changed from walking to jogging.
If the elders in the family saw him like this, they would definitely be shocked. Unlike his younger cousin’s rash and playful personality, Shen Yanqing was the eldest grandson and had been brought up by his grandfather for many years. His personality was very different from his younger cousin’s.
He was calm when it came to matters and had long grasped a place to speak at
home.
As soon as he opened his mouth, the other elders did not dare to interrupt him easily. They all said that he had Old Master Shen’s aura in him, giving off a gentle and powerful feeling.
Therefore, all these years, Shen Yanqing always held himself with confidence and self-restraint. His current reaction was already considered a loss of composure for him.
Nan Ge did not know that the call on the phone had ended. She got out of the car and the waiter at the door held an umbrella for her. She smiled and handed the key to him.
When she reached the front desk, she looked around and was momentarily confused.
In the afternoon, Shen Yanqing suddenly told her that he wanted to eat with everyone in the president’s office. He even sent the location of the restaurant and took the initiative to report to her.
It was already nighttime when she saw the message. He even sent two photos.
The car stopped on Huai South Middle Road. It was rush hour and he was probably waiting for a red light, so he took the opportunity to take a photo of the rain outside through the car window.
In the photo, the lights outside the window were dim. The orange light from the street lamp gradually spread out, leaving a mark on the car window along with the raindrops. She did not pay much attention to the scenery outside the window. She zoomed in and only saw the figure reflected in the glass window.
She could not help but want to meet him on such a rainy night.
She probably felt that they should stay together on such a quiet rainy night.
Hence, she left the dinner party and called home. Without hesitation, she drove straight to Huai City.
Fortunately, the place Yu had asked her to eat today was not far from the intersection of Huai City and Jiang City. Compared to the usual time it took when she got over from the city center, it was half the time less.
After communicating with the receptionist, the waiter led her to the private room.
Just as she turned a corner, a figure suddenly entered her line of sight.
Nan Ge was shocked, but she did not stop. After a short scream, a pair of warm hands grabbed her shoulders.
The waiter was frightened and looked at the two people who collided. “Are you two alright?”
Nan Ge looked at the person in front of her in a daze and did not reply.
Shen Yanqing smiled apologetically at the waiter. “It’s fine. I’m here to get her. That’s all.”
“Oh, okay.” After the waiter confirmed that Nan Ge really knew Shen Yanqing, he left in relief.
The waiter left very quickly, afraid of disturbing them.
In the corridor, the two of them stood quietly. The rain that poured down from above landed in the pool in the middle of the corridor. Koi fish stuck their heads out from time to time.
The koi fish was fat and big. Nan Ge thought that if it wasn’t raining, she would also want to walk over and feed the big koi fish.
“Did I scare you?”
Hearing the voice, Nan Ge remembered where she was. She looked up at his eyes and shook her head like a rattle.
“How did you know I was here? Did you hear the waiter’s voice on the phone?” She was very curious and could not help looking at his face as she asked.
Shen Yanqing pursed his lips. His hand on her shoulder slid down to her waist, but his touch was innocent and he only meant to help support her. “I heard the rain on your side.”
“Oh.” Nan Ge nodded. “The rain outside is a little heavier than before.”
Bean-sized raindrops almost hit her in the face.
As she drove over, she could clearly see the intensity of the rain.
The closer she got to the city center, the heavier the rain became. She was forced to slow down.
“Did you drive here yourself?”
“That’s right. I was near Huai City. It’s not far. I only drove for an hour.”
“Isn’t that far? You should have asked me to pick you up.” Shen Yanqing raised his hand to help her tidy her bangs. “It’s raining so heavily and it’s nighttime. It’s not safe to drive. It’s easy for accidents to happen.”
He had seen Nan Gels driving skills before. Because she was driving a sports car, although her speed had always been within the speed limit, she had always been at the bottom line. If she was not careful, she could exceed the speed limit.
Rainy days like this were the most dangerous.
As he reminded her about safety, his words went in one ear and came out the other. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that he was a very paternal boyfriend just like what people said online.
“Speaking of this, I remember that we met at the scene of the car accident.”
Putting aside their interactions more than ten years ago, when they officially met for the first time after reaching adulthood, wasn’t it in Huai South Middle Road?
