Extra Chapter 2: Brother’s Story
Ever since she got together with Nan Zhe, Qi Yan had worked harder and was even busier than before.
The only person who knew the reason was Song Huan, a businesswoman in her studio.
The two of them had known each other since university. Song Huan was her senior. At first, when she first opened a studio, things did not go smoothly. When Song Huan found out, she invested a sum of money without hesitation and started a business with her. She helped her socialize everywhere.
The two of them had been best friends for a long time.
During that period of time, Song Huan felt that her body could not take it and advised her to stop.
“You can’t go on like this. You workaholic. Take a few days off. You can go on a date with President Nan.”
The gap between the two of them was not something that could be closed in such a short period of time. Song Huan felt sorry for Qi Yan.
“When was the last time you two met?”
As Qi Yan packed up the equipment, she replied, “I just saw him yesterday.”
“Huh? Why didn’t I know that President Nan came to the studio?” Song Huan had been in the studio the entire day yesterday and had never heard of Nan Zhe coming.
After all, every time Nan Zhe came, the entire studio would be very excited.
“Didn’t I work overtime last night? He came to pick me up and we had supper together. It can be considered a date.”
“…Then how many times have you seen each other this month?”
“Including last night, five times. This frequency is not bad.” They would meet every four days.
“You’re really easy to please. That’s only because President Nan came to look for you. You should take the initiative.” In Song Huan’s opinion, with Nan Zhe’s status, there was no lack of girls around him.
It was Qi Yan’s first time in a relationship. She was afraid that Qi Yan would suffer and wanted her to keep an eye on Nan Zhe.
“By the way, didn’t you stand up President Nan last time? It’s perfect this time. The two of you can take some time out to travel. It doesn’t have to be long, you can definitely go for a few days.”
Qi Yan was a little tempted, but when she thought of work, she hesitated.
After all, they were best friends. As soon as Qi Yan frowned, Song Huan knew what she was thinking. “Don’t worry and leave the studio to me. It’s only for two to three days. What can happen?”
“It’s a relationship. Since you are dating, you have to reciprocate. Otherwise, you’ll cry in the future.”
“Okay, I understand.” Qi Yan took her words to heart.
When she returned home that night, she sent a message to Nan Zhe. “Brother
Nan, have you been busy recently?”
Seeing that he did not reply for a long time, Qi Yan looked at the time and went to take a bath first.
When she came out, she saw Nan Zhe’s reply.
“Why? Do you want to see me?”
On the other side, Nan Zhe was still in a meeting at the company. He was not someone who liked to work overtime. He was definitely the first to get off work at the company. It must be very important for him to stay at the company at this time.
Seeing his message, Qi Yan didn’t hesitate. After admitting it, she went straight to the point. “I plan to rest for three days. If you have time, we can hang out together.”
Three days was too long. Fortunately, the surrounding cities were also very special.
Over the years, she had not been to many places. She could count them on one hand. In the vicinity of Huai City, she had only gone to Huai City, so it was still very novel. She just did not know if Nan Zhe wanted to go.
When he came out of the elevator, the phone in the secretary’s hand vibrated. Because Nan Zhe was reading documents, he helped take the phone first.
Seeing the WeChat message, the secretary did not take it to heart. Just as he was about to continue discussing the project with Nan Zhe, he saw Nan Zhe empty his hand and held it in front of him.
The secretary was stunned. When he came back to his senses, he placed the phone in his palm.
Nan Zhe was not in a hurry to read the message. He handed the signed document to him. “It’s getting late. Let’s get off work.”
“Okay, President Nan,” the secretary replied and followed him out.
On the way back to the office, Nan Zhe took the time to open WeChat. After seeing Qi Yan’s message, he thought that he was hallucinating from working overtime.
The secretary was about to return to his seat to get his coat and leave, but before he could put down the document, he saw the man not far ahead suddenly turn around and walk quickly towards him.
The secretary asked, “Is there anything else? Do you still need a driver?”
According to Nan Zhe’s habit, he usually drove by himself unless there was a social gathering.
Nan Zhe waved his hand and informed him of his plans. “Help me make time for the next three days. I have something on.”
” The secretary checked his schedule and was in a difficult position. He wanted to say something but hesitated.
Looking at his expression, Nan Zhe leaned against the table and raised his eyebrows. “What?”
“President Nan, have you forgotten that the shop in Xinbei is going to open the day after tomorrow? You have to attend.”
Nan Zhe hesitated. “Is there anything else? Pick the important ones.” “In the next three days, you can reject the others, but Xinbei…”
“It’s simple. Just get someone else to go.” Nan Zhe spun his phone and quickly thought of a suitable candidate. “I’ll discuss it with Nan Xi and ask him to go on my behalf.”
“…But if you let Second Young Master go, can you explain it to the old master?”
The secretary had followed Nan Zhe for many years. Coupled with the fact that they were alumni of the same school in high school, he basically knew something about the Nan family.
Old Master Nan was determined to help Nan Zhe, the crown prince, control the company. He even tried to let Nan Zhe replace Nan Zhengning, Nan Zhe’s father, in the corporation. Although Nan Zhe’s two uncles did not have any objections on the surface, they did not seem to be people without ambition, including Nan Xi. The secretary was worried that they would take advantage of the situation.
“What’s so difficult about that?” Nan Zhe seemed to have thought of something and sneered. “Would you believe it? Even if I gave Nan Xi the position today, he would never dare to move up.”
Nan Zhe knew best what these people from the Nan family looked like on the surface and what they looked like in private.
Nan Xi had just graduated and did not have the ability.
“Then where are you going? Do you need me to arrange it for you?” Thinking of Nan Zhe secretly reading the dating tutorial on his official account at work, the secretary guessed that he was going on a date this time.
Nan Zhe didn’t have any plans yet, and he didn’t know where Qi Yan wanted to go.
“Oh, right.” He came back again and humbly asked for advice. “Is there a more fun place nearby?”
“Nearby?”
The secretary scratched his head. “You’re making things difficult for me. Don’t you know every hotspot in Jiang City better than me?”
“Tsk, I’m asking about nearby cities not too far away.”
“Then maybe Quan City. There are many scenic spots, and it’s only 200 kilometers away from Jiang City. Three days are more than enough.”
“Alright.” Nan Zhe thanked him. “I’ll bring you some specialties when I come back.”
“Thank you in advance, President Nan.” Seeing that he was so happy, the secretary could not help but be curious. “Mind if I ask? How did you meet your girlfriend?”
He knew Nan Zhe’s recent schedule. How did he fall in love?
Although Nan Zhe had many private gatherings, there were not many members of the opposite sex present. They were all familiar faces.
Where did he get a girlfriend from?
“We were classmates.”
“Oh. You met her when you were studying abroad.” The secretary expressed that he understood.
He thought this way because the families who could study abroad these days were usually not bad. That was why she was worthy of Nan Zhe.
However, he did not expect Nan Zhe to say, “Who told you that she’s my university classmate? She’s my junior high school classmate.”
The secretary, ‘
