Chapter 1311: He couldn’t get over what happened back then!
Because You Nainai was following Lin Nuan, Tang Zheng knew Lin Nuan’s schedule very well.
“No, I asked Nuan Nuan for leave. I want to be by your side all this while…”
You Nainai couldn’t say the word “protective”.
Tang Zheng paused…
The You Nainai he knew, had always been very dedicated to her work. No matter what happened, she would never neglect her duty.
Tang Zheng couldn’t help but feel touched. If they weren’t at his office, Tang Zheng would have pulled You Nainai to his embrace.
He smiled, afraid that You Nainai would also be in danger if she were to follow him, so he said, “Why don’t you just follow Lin Nuan? Many people are protecting her. If you’re there, I can be sure of your safety!”
“Do I need someone to protect me?” You Nainai’s face was tense despite trying her best to maintain a calm and aloof expression. “Only a… Only someone like you would need protection!”
You Nainai had initially wanted to say a “weakling”, but upon recalling that they were at his workplace, she decided not to say it aloud.
Tang Zheng was elated and quickly said to You Nainai, “Then… go to my office first! What do you want to drink?”
“Nothing!” You Nainai said, still with a tense face.
Tang Zheng smiled as he turned around to instruct his secretary, “Go and buy a cup of lychee-flavored fruit juice, as well as a piece of tiramisu. Do you still want coconut juice with sago?”
Ignoring what You Nainai said, Tang Zheng asked You Nainai naturally.
All the food items that Tang Zheng mentioned were You Nainai’s favorites.
“It’s work hours, so I don’t eat or drink!” You Nainai said.
“Are you treating me as your employer?” Tang Zheng looked at You Nainai and smiled. He reached out to press the elevator button and said, “Just treat it as a work benefit!”
Tang Zheng’s secretary knew how much You Nainai held in Tang Zheng’s heart, so he immediately got someone to buy it. He even instructed them to go to Zhu Ji, which was You Nainai’s favorite dessert shop.
Perhaps because of her occupational illness, the first thing You Nainai did upon entering Tang Zheng’s office was walk to the windows to scan the situation outside before exiting the room again…
“Where are you going?”
You Nainai pointed outside. “I’m standing guard outside!”
Tang Zheng was speechless.
“You stay inside and guard me!” Tang Zheng removed his suit jacket, placed it on the back of the chair, and smiled as he pulled out his chair.
You Nainai pursed her lips. “Okay… but will it disturb your work?”
“How can I be so easily disturbed!” Tang Zheng secretly rejoiced in his heart. “Moreover, when I see you, my heart will be at ease, and it’ll get me more motivated to work harder!”
There was a hint of a smile on You Nainai’s lips, but she didn’t want Tang Zheng to see through her. She glared at Tang Zheng before checking every corner of the office.
“Don’t worry, even if there are surveillance cameras here, it’s completely useless!” Tang Zheng smiled. “There’s a jammer. If you don’t believe me, look at your phone. There’s no signal…”
You Nainai glanced at her phone. Indeed, there was no signal.
Seeing how cautious Tang Zheng was, she concluded that the danger this time around was rather serious.
“Are you going to protect me 24/7?” Tang Zheng thought about it and asked You Nainai with a hint of anticipation in his heart.
You Nainai turned to look at Tang Zheng. Seeing the light in Tang Zheng’s eyes, she answered softly, “Mm…”
Tang Zheng subconsciously tightened his grip on the pen. He restrained the joy in his heart and nodded, no longer in the mood to work. “Then… what would you like to eat tonight? I’ll cook!”
Tang Zheng’s culinary skills had always been pretty good. In the past… before You Nainai and Tang Zheng parted ways, she’d always liked to follow Tang Zheng to his apartment to eat the food that he made. Perhaps Little Candy’s gluttony stemmed from You Nainai.
Not hearing You Nainai’s reply, Tang Zheng acted on his own. “Then I’ll make what I always made! This time… can we add lychee prawn balls?”
When You Nainai heard the words lychee, she couldn’t help but feel vexed. “Tang Zheng, you’re not done, are you? Lychee, lychee, lychee, you can’t get over that joke from back then, right?”
Back then, You Nainai was a foolish and bold person who liked the instructor’s friend, Tang Zheng. However, the first time she confessed, she was rejected!
Fu Huai’an had told her that Tang Zheng liked lychees. After that, following someone else’s suggestion, she ate a lot of lychees before forcing a kiss on Tang Zheng.
He even told Tang Zheng, “Even if you don’t like me, I want you to remember me forever! In the future, whenever you eat lychees, you’ll think of me!”
At that time, Tang Zheng was stunned by You Nainai’s actions. He wanted to flip his hand to slam You Nainai against the wall… but the frightened You Nainai threw Tang Zheng over her shoulder and ran away.
Tang Zheng, who wasn’t good at acting cool, was beaten up instead.
Later, when Tang Zheng got together with You Nainai, You Nainai loved everything about lychee, an act analogous to extending her love of a house to the crows perching on it. However, Tang Zheng had always thought that You Nainai liked Lychee herself.
Tang Zheng looked at You Nainai innocently. “What’s the matter? Don’t you like lychees?”
You Nainai glared at Tang Zheng and sat on the sofa, avoiding his gaze…
Tang Zheng was a little confused.
I don’t know what I said wrong that got my wife angry all of a sudden, but what should I do? Waiting for your advice, netizens… I’m pretty anxious!
Thankfully, Tang Zheng’s secretary quickly brought over the dessert that You Nainai liked. Seeing You Nainai sitting on the sofa and eating her dessert, Tang Zheng’s heart finally calmed down.
In the past, Tang Zheng was a cool, manly man, but now, in front of You Nainai, he was as obedient as a tiny chihuahua.
Perhaps because his wife was in the office, Tang Zheng impatiently instructed his subordinates to quickly handle the documents. He planned to take advantage of the fact that their child wasn’t around today to take You Nainai on a movie date or something.
Tang Zheng had always regretted that he had never brought You Nainai to a movie in the past.
…
Lin Nuan and Su Manman had a meal at a vegan restaurant. Lin Nuan had originally wanted Mu Taotao to sit at the same table with them, but Mu Taotao was afraid that she’d disturb Lin Nuan and Su Manman’s conversation, so she sat at a small round table by the side.
Su Manman arrived earlier than them and had already ordered her food. She then passed the menu to Lin Nuan so Lin Nuan could order what she wanted to eat.
Seeing Su Manman’s pale face, Lin Nuan casually set the menu aside and asked, “What happened to you? Are you on your period?”
“No…” Su Manman waved her hand. “It has been over 20 days since it came. The pain only stopped after taking three sets of Chinese medicine.”
“I told you a long time ago to do something about it, but you just wouldn’t listen…” Lin Nuan’s brows furrowed even harder, and she couldn’t resist nagging at Su Manman. “Don’t think that you can stop eating the medicine because it doesn’t hurt. You need to keep taking the Chinese medicine!”
“I got it. Why are you nagging at me more than my mother would? I won’t call you out for a meal anymore in the future!” Su Manman poured Lin Nuan a glass of water. “Something’s been bothering me recently. I don’t want to film a movie either, so I don’t know what to do. It’s meaningless to eat, it’s meaningless to drink. Right now, I feel that even breathing is tiring!”
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
