Chapter 136: Kissing His Ears
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Yanqing tried his best to follow her train of thought and asked, “Aren’t you afraid of being caught?”
Nan Ge waved a finger in front of him. “I’m different from you. I didn’t sneak out.”
“Huh?”
“I was personally brought out by the caretaker. My caretaker is very good to me.” The little penguin could not hide the smugness on her face. She waved her hand and still had a conscience. “Hey, just run quickly. Don’t worry, I won’t report you! As penguins, we have to have loyalty between each other!”
Oh god.
Shen Yanqing could not do anything to her and played along.
“Just treat me as your caretaker then, okay? I’ll bring you back to rest. If you go to sleep obediently, you can have dried fish when you wake up.”
“Come, let me carry you up, okay?”
Nan Ge seemed to be absorbing his words. She lowered her head and pondered.
Suddenly, Shen Yanqing saw her eyes light up. “I don’t want you to carry me.
Piggyback me! ”
“If you don’t piggyback me, I’ll stay here and not leave. I’ll just wait for a polar bear to take me later. It’s fine.”
“I wonder which caretaker will have trouble finding his little penguin tomorrow.”
“Okay, okay, okay.” This was the first time Shen Yanqing had seen Nan Ge drunk. It was also the first time he knew that although her brain was still working in an unusual manner when she was drunk, she still had logic and was not stupid.
He smiled and squatted down. He turned his head and patted her shoulder.
“Come on up. The caretaker will carry the little penguin to sleep.”
“Uh huh!” Without another word, Nan Ge grabbed his jacket and climbed onto his back.
Shen Yanqing got up and wanted to send her to the hotel. Nan Ge looked at the logo that lit up at the entrance of the hotel and was a little resistant. “I don’t want to go up…”
The man paused for a moment. “Then where are we going? We have to go upstairs if you want to sleep, right?”
“Oh.” Good question.
Nan Ge did not know where she wanted to go.
However, subconsciously, she really wanted Shen Yanqing to piggyback her.
Ever since the two of them finished eating the hotpot, this thought had been lingering in her mind. However, she did not dare to say it out loud. Now that she was drunk, she could do whatever she wanted.
“Where do you want to go?”
Shen Yanqing was not in a hurry to piggyback her in and asked patiently.
Logically speaking, he should not have listened to the instructions of a little drunkard. He should have sent her up directly at this time.
However, this was also the first time he had come into contact with a drunk Nan Ge.
He could be a hands-off boss at any time, but what would happen after he left?
It was said that drunk people were especially sensitive. Would Nan Ge cry and make a fuss?
He was not particularly at ease handing it over to others. Moreover, her roommates were also very drunk.
At the very least, he had to coax her to sleep before leaving.
“I don’t know either…” Nan Ge leaned on his shoulder, her eyes lowered in disappointment.
Shen Yanqing followed her train of thought and thought carefully. He said, “Alright, let’s not go in now. I’ll piggyback you around and when you’re tired, we’ll go back, okay?”
Hearing this, the little head on his shoulder looked up. “Okay!”
Nan Ge thought so too.
Shen Yanqing changed directions.
There was a small path on both sides of the hotel. He walked in the shadows of the trees under the orange light. The man piggybacked her forward.
“Are you cold?”
“No.” Nan Ge shook her head. She detected the thin shirt he was wearing and quickly asked, “Are you cold?” “I’m not cold either.”
“Okay.”
Nan Ge hugged his neck tightly and buried her face in his neck. “Shen Yanqing, you smell so good.”
“Do 1?” He chuckled.
He had a habit of using perfume, but it was driven by etiquette. He mostly used perfumes on his handkerchiefs.
“Yes, I like it so much.’
Shen Yanqing knew that she might be saying that she liked the smell of his perfume, but when he heard this, he could not help but stop.
Sensing that he had stopped, Nan Ge looked up in confusion. He was standing under the swaying shadows of the trees and happened to turn to look at her.
Through the lenses, she looked carefully into his eyes.
A few seconds later, she could not help but raise her hand and suddenly stop in midair.
“Huh?” Shen Yanqing’s pupils were dark. It was as if some kind of magic was drawing her closer to them.
“Shen Yanqing.”
She looked into his eyes and called out to him softly.
“I’m here.”
“Can you not wear glasses now?”
He did not refuse and said, ‘You can help me take it off.”
She did as he said and removed his glasses.
Without the lenses covering his eyes, she finally saw what she wanted to see.
Seeing her suddenly smile, Shen Yanqing frowned slightly and was a little puzzled. “What are you laughing at?”
Nan Ge raised her hand and touched his eyelashes. “Ha! I just knew there were stars in your eyes!”
“I finally saw them!”
It was almost midnight before Shen Yanqing sent Nan Ge back to the hotel.
Worried that Cheng Xia and the others had already fallen asleep, Shen Yanqing booked another room next door and settled Nan Ge down.
Nan Ge had already fallen asleep. She was probably tired from spending a lot of time outside and did not wake up even after getting placed on the bed. She hugged the pillow obediently and continued to sleep.
Shen Yanqing put her coat and shoes away and turned off the lights before sitting down to rest.
Nan Ge was really energetic when she was drunk.
He piggybacked her around the hotel a few times. Because he was afraid that she would fall asleep halfway, he did not dare to walk too far.
He thought that she would fall asleep soon, but she kept talking to him on the way and would occasionally touch his ear.
There were two times when she leaned closer to speak to him, her lips already pressed against his ear.
At the thought of that touch, Shen Yanqing coughed lightly. He loosened his tie uncomfortably and touched his ear.
Under the light of the table lamp, he could see the red on his fingertip clearly.
At first, he thought that he was seeing things because he was not wearing glasses. He got up and went to the bathroom to look in the mirror. Only then did he realize that there were a lot of red smears on his ears and neck… Hmmm. What was this?
Shen Yanqing touched the red smears on his fingers and the redness quickly faded.
Soon, he thought about the scene when he picked up Nan Ge in the evening. When she returned to the dormitory and came down, something was different about her lips.
Lipstick.
It was the lipstick that Nan Ge had left behind after kissing him…
Only then did Shen Yanqing understand why the two staff members had been staring at his ears at the front desk.
He thought that they were sizing up the sleeping baby penguin on his back, so he felt a little uncomfortable.
In the end… He turned his head and pulled down the collar of his shirt. Were they looking at this?
At the thought of this, the old man closed his eyes and opened them helplessly. He did not know whether to laugh or cry as he turned on the tap and wiped the marks on his ears and neck with a towel.
It was destined to be a restless night.
On the other side of Huai City, Qi Yan watched from upstairs while Nan Zhe stayed in the car downstairs..
