Chapter 13: You're a Good Person!
Shen Yanqing's heart tightened as he walked toward her. "Nan Ge."
He called her name again and saw that she was staring blankly at Assistant Yuan without any other reaction.
Shen Yanqing frowned slightly and looked at Assistant Yuan.
The man's dark eyes under his glasses narrowed slightly, carrying an invisible pressure.
"…"
Assistant Yuan's scalp went numb and he almost crushed the cup in his hand.
He had been working for Shen Yanqing since graduation and was too familiar with his gaze.
"Erm. Miss Nan Ge brought fruit wine from the restaurant. I said that you're allergic to alcohol…"
At this point, the rest of the content was self-evident.
Shen Yanqing said helplessly, "Okay then. Go and eat."
Assistant Yuan felt as if he had been pardoned and slipped away quickly.
Soon, the corridor fell silent again, leaving only Shen Yanqing and Nan Ge.
"Shall we talk inside?" Shen Yanqing asked in a low voice.
Nan Ge blinked, not daring to speak.
Seeing this, Shen Yanqing hesitated for a moment and reached out to hold her wrist gently. "Let's talk inside."
Nan Ge opened her mouth, but in the end, she closed it obediently and allowed him to pull her in.
After the two of them disappeared, a few heads slowly appeared from the other workstations. The person in the lead was Assistant Yuan.
Miaomiao took a bite of the pizza and watched the commotion. "Do you still want to send Nan Ge's coffee over?"
"Don't you have eyes?" Assistant Yuan glanced at her. "We're already in such a dire situation, yet you still talk about coffee!"
"If you send in the coffee now, you'll be fired tomorrow morning for stepping through the building with your left foot first."
Miaomiao, "Are you sure that between the two of us, I'll be fired first?"
Assistant Yuan, "…" Damn she was annoying.
——
Nan Ge was pressed down on the sofa. She was still holding Shen Yanqing's meal.
After hesitating for a moment, she gently placed the food on the table and quietly pushed it across. Then, she pushed it again.
Shen Yanqing turned around and sat down. The moment he looked up, he saw her small actions.
After she was discovered, Nan Ge immediately sat down and placed her hands on her lap. She was wearing a thick down jacket. When she sensed Shen Yanqing's gaze, she lowered her head and buried half of her face in her wide collar and looked like a little quail.
Seeing that she was deliberately avoiding him, Shen Yanqing looked away and poured her a glass of water. "It's warm."
He got up and tried to put the glass of water in front of her.
However, as soon as he approached, Nan Ge subconsciously leaned back. Shen Yanqing's hand stopped in midair, and his eyes darkened for a moment.
The next second, he pretended that nothing had happened and put down the cup. Soon, he returned to his original position and distanced himself from her again.
The atmosphere was inexplicably awkward. Nan Ge fidgeted with her fingers, feeling a little helpless and uneasy.
She was in the wrong.
'But… Sigh.' Nan Ge exhaled slowly, a little vexed.
After hesitating for a while, she said, "Erm. I'm sorry…"
"About the other day…"
The two of them spoke at the same time, their voices colliding unexpectedly.
Nan Ge was stunned.
Shen Yanqing smiled gently. "I'll go first."
"Okay." Nan Ge, who had just mustered her courage, silently shrank back.
"Assistant Yuan actually doesn't know what happened that day. If he said anything wrong to you just now, I'm sorry. Don't think too much."
"It's a fact that I'm allergic to alcohol, but I didn't drink too much that day. You should remember that I only took a sip."
"It wasn't serious at the time. Come to think of it, if you'd known about my alcohol allergy, you wouldn't have let me drink, would you?"
His tone was gentle as he patiently guided her.
Nan Ge nodded heavily and said obediently, "Yes. Correct!"
That's right!
If she had known that he said he could not drink because he was allergic to alcohol, she would have turned around and left without a word.
She definitely wouldn't force him!
"I didn't explain the situation in advance and you didn't force me later either. I voluntarily drank the alcohol. In the end, it was my fault. You don't have to blame yourself."
Nan Ge started to feel conflicted again. She hesitated for a moment and retorted, "But… no matter what, I indirectly caused your allergies to happen."
"You were just playing a game. When you rejected me at the beginning, I should have left earlier."
No matter how stupid she was, she could guess that Shen Yanqing had chosen to help her drink after recognizing her.
He had lied and said that he did not know how to drink,
When she mentioned this two days ago, he kept apologizing and did not tell her the truth about his alcohol allergy. He was afraid that she would blame herself.
At the thought of this, Nan Ge pursed her lips and felt that she had to apologize.
"I'm sorry. I know things can get pretty serious when you're allergic to alcohol."
Nan Ge probably felt that the apology was too superficial. She stood up, looked at him firmly, and bowed deeply. "You're a good person! I'm sorry!"
Shen Yanqing, who had always been calm, was stunned for two seconds when he saw this scene. When he came back to his senses, he went forward to help her up. His heart ached and he wanted to laugh. He felt a little helpless. "Nan Ge, it's really not that serious."
Why was this little girl so cute?
If it were anyone else, he might have thought that the other person was just pretending, but it was Nan Ge.
He felt that according to Nan Ge's way of thinking, she was definitely serious about bowing and apologizing. freewe(b)novel.com
In the words of Assistant Yuan's joke the other day, Nan Ge was so sincere that she almost kowtowed to him on the spot.
Nan Ge did not dare to raise her head to look at him. Her gaze could not help but wander.
"How much did you spend in the hospital that day? I'll pay you back."
"It didn't cost much, because it wasn't serious. I didn't even need IV. All I took was medicine."
"That won't do either." Nan Ge took out her phone and did not listen to him. She directly transferred $500 to his WeChat. "I still have to give you this. That's a separate matter. Please accept it."
Nan Ge reluctantly entered the password. Sigh. She had lost money yet again during work.
"You have to accept it! If you don't, I'll give the delivery order to some other colleague in the future. I won't send orders here anymore."
"Why?"
Nan Ge put a hand over her heart. "Because you're too nice. If I come to you again, I'll feel guilty."
Actually, she was afraid if this continued, she would lose money every day!
She was here to earn money to buy a car and not to do charity.
Shen Yanqing looked at her and then at the $500 she transferred over. It was as if he had encountered the toughest problem on earth and was at a loss.
Previously, Assistant Yuan had explained to him that people who worked as delivery men would receive a commission. They could usually earn a few dollars per order. For private restaurant delivery men like Nan Ge, the commission was slightly higher.
However, $500 was probably quite a bit of money for Nan Ge.
As if he had thought of something, Shen Yan accepted the money and immediately opened the delivery software. He opened the tipping function and entered an amount.
