Chapter 1365: Chapter 1228: She Knows, She’s Done For (Part 2)
He Meisui once said that no matter how much he pleads for forgiveness now, it is useless.
Not just Ou Xiaoning, but all women become very cautious after experiencing hurt once.
Ou Xiaoning seems naive and confused, but is actually earnest and straightforward in matters of the heart.
She is afraid of being let down, and afraid that even if she turns back, the outcome will be the same.
Even so, it might as well be to give her a result that puts her mind at ease.
Get it done in one step, eliminating all her worries and doubts, directly and clearly.
So Wang Sai prepared everything in advance, bought a house and proposed.
Speaking of which, he should thank Song Yansheng for suddenly delaying his lecture by a week.
Originally, Wang Sai knew that time would likely only be enough to buy a ring, but due to the change in Song Yansheng’s lecture schedule, he felt there was enough time and wanted to make the proposal even more thorough.
Over the course of a week, other than going to work, he spent all his time looking at houses, and finally chose one he thought Ou Xiaoning would certainly like and settled on it.
Xie Shiqin, undoubtedly, it was Shi Nuan’s previous comfort and encouragement to him. If not for Shi Nuan, he wouldn’t have had the courage to pursue Ou Xiaoning again.
Shi Nuan usually doesn’t drink much beer, but today she drank, and quite a lot too.
Even Lv Nan Nan joined in the fun, saying she was able to intern at the Shi Family thanks to Shi Nuan. She hadn’t properly thanked Shi Nuan, and this time she should toast her a few more glasses.
Lv Nan Nan spoke sincerely, and Shi Nuan had no reason not to drink.
After a few beers, Shi Nuan was already a little tipsy. He Meisui knows Shi Nuan can hold her liquor, but only with red wine.
With white wine and beer, she’s not very good, so she advised everyone to pace themselves.
Lv Nan Nan said, "Especially because today is a happy occasion, and my drinking capacity, probably besides Shi Nuan, is no match for any of you, so I only dare toast her!"
"Oh, so you’re picking on the weak!" Ou Xiaoning said, "That’s not right, I need to stand up for Nuannuan!"
Saying that, she started pouring more drinks, to toast Lv Nan Nan.
Shi Nuan really couldn’t handle much more, so she planned to get up and go to the restroom.
He Meisui also stood up, saying, "Nuannuan is a bit drunk, I don’t feel at ease with her going alone, I’ll go with her!"
Just as He Meisui was about to stand up, Lv Nan Nan pulled her back, saying, "I happen to need to go to the restroom too, you stay and drink with Xiaoning and Wang Sai, I’ll go with her!"
Ou Xiaoning protested, "Why are you running away when we want to toast you?"
Lv Nan Nan replied, "How could I run away? I’ll drink when I come back. Besides, Wang Sai toasted Meisui several times earlier, so as the soon-to-be bride who accepted the proposal, shouldn’t you also toast Meisui a few more times?"
Ou Xiaoning thought that made sense and pulled He Meisui to toast, while Lv Nan Nan took the opportunity to support Shi Nuan as they headed towards the restroom.
Out of the room, Shi Nuan let out a breath, feeling much better, and said to Lv Nan Nan, "I can walk on my own, you don’t have to worry!"
Lv Nan Nan glanced at her, unsure, "Really? You can walk on your own?"
Shi Nuan nodded.
Although her head was a bit dizzy, it wasn’t enough to be considered very drunk. Washing her face in the restroom later would make her feel much better.
With that, Lv Nan Nan let go of Shi Nuan, and the two of them headed towards the restroom together.
On the way, Lv Nan Nan couldn’t help but sigh, "Back then, I thought you would be the first in our dorm to get married, but it turned out to be Xiaoning!"
Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered; in fact, she had been the first in their dorm to get married, but she couldn’t tell them that she was already married.
Seeing that Shi Nuan didn’t respond, Lv Nan Nan continued, "But I guess your turn will be soon, right? You have a boyfriend, don’t you? Although I don’t know who he is, I think he must be very good and outstanding, someone who can make you happy. So getting married early would also be nice!"
Shi Nuan’s thin lips moved slightly, "I’m not in a hurry..."
Lv Nan Nan nodded, "Well, now that you have more and more prestige in the Shi Family, and you’re a major shareholder, your future is limitless. Plus, you just graduated from college, so young, focusing on your career is the most important thing. But Nuannuan, remember to take care of your health. You’ve been taking a lot of leave lately, and that’s generally not a good thing!"
Shi Nuan nodded; she indeed had taken too many leaves during this time.
Even though it was mostly because Song Yansheng forced her to take them, didn’t she also take advantage and act recklessly with Song Yansheng’s support?
Father had basically handed the Shi Family over to her, and even though Li Guirong and Shi Jiaojiao had shares, she was sure that she would eventually be able to completely oust them from the Shi Family.
