Chapter 98: For example, When I Marry You
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Soon, Nan Gets low sobs were drowned out by the man’s apology.
After a while, she calmed down. However, when she spoke, her voice was still a little shaky. “You can’t do this again.”
“Okay.” Shen Yanqing patted her back. “Stop crying. If you continue crying, your eyes will swell.”
“Have a good sleep. I’ll take you out to look around in the morning.”
“If the snow stops, I’ll bring you here when the first snow comes next year, okay?”
Nan Ge was no longer in the mood to look at the snow. “You can’t leave the hospital in the morning.”
“I’m much better now. I’ll be fine in the morning.”
“That won’t do either.” Nan Ge had seriously asked the doctor before, so she did not listen to his lies.
Shen Yanqing smiled and exhaled helplessly. “How about this? How about you go out with them tomorrow morning?
“I feel more at ease this way.”
Other than Assistant Yuan, everyone else had half a day off in the morning.
Coincidentally, there were a few girls. Nan Ge was not much older than them, so they could hang out together.
“No.” Nan Ge sensed that he was tired from this position, so she decisively let go and got up from his arms. “Come up and rest. Don’t worry about me.” “We can talk tomorrow when you wake up.”
He was a patient now. It was useless to say anything now. He should get some rest.
“I’ll sleep on the chair.”
As Nan Ge spoke, she wanted to get up. Fortunately, Shen Yanqing was quick. He pressed her shoulder and said, “Sleep here. This bed is not that small, so it won’t affect me.”
“If I let you sleep on the chair, I probably won’t be able to sleep tonight.” Hearing this, Nan Ge hesitated for a moment before lying back down.
When Shen Yanqing lay down, Nan Ge subconsciously shrank to the side.
There seemed to be a border between the two of them.
Nan Ge was petite to begin with, so she did not take up much space lying on the side.
Shen Yanqing turned his body sideways and politely turned his back to her. He also leaned against the side of the bed and did not even touch her. This was the first time the two of them had slept together.
Unexpectedly, it was in the hospital.
Nan Ge rubbed her sore eyes and looked at his back. She was no longer sleepy.
Most of Shen Yanqing’s pillow was given to her. He looked like he was lying on a corner of the pillow, but on closer look, he was lying on his arm.
Nan Ge pushed the pillow towards him.
Sensing the movement behind him, Shen Yanqing’s open eyes trembled slightly.
Obviously, he was not sleepy.
“Lie flat. It’s uncomfortable to sleep like this.” Nan Ge reached out and poked his spine.
She did not use much strength and tapped gently through his shirt, but Shen Yanqing could still feel the warmth of her fingertips.
“I’m fine. I’m not very sleepy yet.”
After a moment of silence, Nan Ge asked him, “Are you still going over tomorrow night?”
“Yes. I still have to do what I promised.”
“Okay.” It was exactly as Assistant Yuan had said.
For the first time, she felt that it was not entirely a good thing to have a good character.
Because… people like them were easily bullied.
For a person like Shen Yanqing, he was easily restrained by those rules. Doing anything against the rules was no different from committing a “crime” in the eyes of such people.
Others might not care, but they probably could not get over the hurdle in their hearts.
For example, today’s incident.
Nan Ge could not help but poke him again. “You had such a serious reaction to alcohol…
She wanted to educate him, but she stopped mid-sentence.
Why should she educate Shen Yanqing?
He was an upright person, had a good upbringing, and was strict and magnanimous. Did he do anything wrong?
The one in the wrong was the other party!
At the thought of this, Nan Ge pouted. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
“You’ve already told him that you’re not in good health, but he still forced you.
It’s better not to interact with such a person in the future.”
She originally wanted to ask him to cut ties with the other party, but she remembered that they were in a business relationship.
This was not something that could be severed easily.
It was not a child’s game that could be severed with just a few words.
Sensing her disappointment, Shen Yanqing turned around and faced her.
With the help of the weak light, he raised his hand and placed it on her waist for the first time, pressing her against him.
The man’s body was burning hot, and there were still red marks on his neck.
Nan Ge blinked and lay in his arms, suddenly silent.
“Don’t be angry anymore.” Shen Yanqing patted her back gently. “After this project, we won’t be in contact anymore.”
“Originally, I wanted to refuse, but I was unable to attend a business meeting with him at the last minute last year, so I was in the wrong.”
“This time, he still remembered this matter, so it’s indeed not easy to refuse his request.”
Shen Yanqing was in the wrong. When the chairman failed to persuade him to drink and felt embarrassed, he directly brought up the matter again.
Therefore, after some thought, he braced himself and drank a little.
“I’m actually not giving him face, nor do I think that a problem like that will affect our project. I’m just apologizing for last year’s actions.”
“This will never happen again.”
With his explanation, Nan Ge understood.
“Don’t worry. I’m not stupid. I won’t take everything he throws at me.” Shen Yanqing knew what she was thinking. He ran his fingers through her long hair and patted her head gently.
He said half-jokingly, “It’s just like what your brother said before. I’m eight years older than you and entered society early. After so many years, I’m not a completely good person.”
“I know very well how complicated and chaotic this society is. I even understood this before I was your age.”
“Although I will restrain my actions and haven’t done anything overboard, I’m definitely not as clean as you think.”
There was nothing wrong with Nan Gels brother’s words.
He had been working in the business world for years and was meticulous. He was definitely not as innocent and harmless as Nan Ge.
This was because this circle was an abyss in itself. If one was not careful, the road under their feet would collapse. Many people were lingering at the edge of the cliff- Tt was imnossihle to find a good nerson here-
He said all this to tell Nan Ge that he was not so weak and easy to bully.
However, he was neither a good person nor a bad person. He could still guarantee that he had never fallen.
Not even once.
“To put it simply, if not for what happened last year, I wouldn’t have drunk that glass of wine yesterday.”
“For me to be able to get to where I am today, I naturally have the right to refuse. No one can force me, except myself.”
“So don’t worry, such a thing will definitely not happen in the future.” Nan Ge digested his words and caught the main point. “Then you won’t touch alcohol in the future, right?”
“Not necessarily. We still have to drink a little for important occasions.”
He looked serious. “For example, when I marry you.”
