When they reached Le Tian’s house, Le Tian gently tucked Wen Shan in bed and took her phone. Le Tian used Wen Shan’s index finger to unlock her phone and searched for Nalan Chunbo’s contact number.
After some thought, Le Tian decided to use her phone to call Nalan Chunbo instead.
Le Tian’s call was answered on her second try.
“Hello―”
“Mr. Nalan, we’ve met before,” Le Tian said bluntly, getting straight to the point.
Nalan Chunbo’s mind went blank for a while. He slowly sat up and after searching his memory, he replied, “Yes, Miss Le, we’ve met before.”
“Mr. Nalan, as straightforward people, let us not beat around the bush. I want to know what is on your mind. If you do not have feelings for Wen Shan, please do not get close to her. Does it stroke your ego when Wen Shan gets upset over you?”
As someone who had been hurt before in a relationship, Le Tian understood Wen Shan’s feelings and didn’t want her best friend to continue being in this state.
Nalan Chunbo remained silent as Le Tian scolded him.
Wen Shan being sad made his heart ache even more, and all his pride left him.
He did not know how to defend himself.
If he admitted that he did have feelings for Wen Shan, would it be too late?
If not for that short letter, he would not have had the opportunity to say what was on his mind the day he ended up hurting her in the seaside village.
What about the situation now?
“The incident was an accident, so I would like to personally give Wen Shan an explanation.” Nalan Chunbo still sounded quite weak but his tone was serious and a little anxious.
Le Tian could not tell whether Nalan Chunbo was anxious to get over his regret or if it was for another reason.
“You want to explain?” Le Tian sneered. “Your explanation was what drove her to get drunk when she was feeling sad, right?”
“Wen Shan drank?” Nalan Chunbo asked instantly as he tolerated the pain in his stomach and stood up. “Where are you both now? Is Wen Shan alright?”
Nalan Chunbo couldn’t hide his anxiousness any longer.
Le Tian sensed his sincere worry but it did not mean that she approved of him yet.
“Is she at your place? I’ll come over now.” Not waiting for Le Tian’s reply, Nalan Chunbo asked again.
Le Tian remained silent. She heard a door open and close, and a lady’s voice in the background.
Le Tian immediately ended the call with a huff. The man was really up to no good!
By the time Nalan Chunbo reached the stairs to Le Tian’s house, which he had found by relying completely on his memory of the last time he went there, it was already early evening.
He held onto his stomach while going upstairs, then stood at the doorway and kept on pressing the doorbell.
Le Tian deliberately refused to open the door for Nalan Chunbo because she wanted to see how persistent he was.
The doorbell was still ringing after thirty minutes. Nalan Chunbo pressed the doorbell once every five minutes to prevent disturbing the people who were in that house. Le Tian finally relented and slowly got up to answer the door.
Le Tian had to admit that Nalan Chunbo was a gentleman from the way he patiently rang the doorbell only once every five minutes to prove he was still there.
This simple gesture showed that the man had been brought up well.
Nalan Chunbo’s face was very pale. He saw Le Tian’s shock when she opened the door and figured that she did not think he was really ill.
“Your endurance is no joke. Come on in.” Although Le Tian was still cold to him, he could tell she did not think he was a bad person.
Nalan Chunbo thanked her before entering.
