Chapter 721: Chapter 798: Really going to have a wedding?
Chen Nan’s face instantly stiffened.
The little wretch arrived so quickly that, just having smoked a cigarette and called Huo Xinya, she had already shown up.
Turning around sowhat stiffly, Chen Nan grinned, “Hey girl, you’re here. What ‘little wretch’? You must have misheard.”
Su Qingqing pouted and stared at him, “Really didn’t say it?”
Actually, she had just arrived and vaguely heard Chen Nan talking about so “little wretch” being unreasonable, but she wasn’t sure if she had misheard.
Chen Nan stood tall and proud, with the air of an honorable gentleman, and said, “Of course not, there’s no advantage in lying to you. Besides, as a civilized and refined person like , how could I possibly say such crude things? Right?”
Su Qingqing scratched her head, pointing to the ground, “Do civilized people litter cigarette butts everywhere?”
“That wasn’t .”
Chen Nan flatly denied it, bending over to pick up the cigarette butt and throwing it into the trash bin, “But everyone should take responsibility for maintaining public hygiene. As a quality citizen, this is just part of my duty.”
Su Qingqing rolled her eyes, speechless.
This guy really had no sha. The cigarette butt was clearly his own doing, yet he talked as if he was doing a noble deed, making others think he was emulating Lei Feng.
“What’s with that look? It really wasn’t .”
Chen Nan said confidently, grabbing Su Qingqing’s hand and heading toward the parking lot, “What are you spacing out for, let’s go!”
Su Qingqing scratched her head and followed behind him.
Once in the car, Su Qingqing started the engine and began to dig up old debts with Chen Nan.
Her lotus arm waved lightly, and her pale, jade-like fingers pointed at Chen Nan’s nose as she glared at him indignantly, “You big dummy, you tricked on the phone just now, you tell , how should we settle this account?”
Chen Nan cursed the cunning little wretch under his breath.
Earlier outside, she didn’t bring up settling accounts, but now that they were in the car, with no escape for him, she started digging up the past. Quite sly indeed.
“We should look ahead in life, stop digging up the past.”
Chen Nan shook off his hand, looking completely nonchalant.
Su Qingqing pouted, extrely dissatisfied, “Humph, if you want to not hold it against you, that’s easy. Just confess, where have you been these past few days?”
“Went… on a trip.”
Chen Nan didn’t tell the truth, fearing the little wretch would get jealous.
Su Qingqing’s eyes widened in shock, “You actually skipped class to go on a trip?”
“You have a problem with that?”
“Of course, I do!” Su Qingqing huffed angrily, “Skipping class for such a thrilling trip, why didn’t you invite along? That’s so an. Tell , where did you go?”
Chen Nan shrugged his shoulders, helplessly, “If I had invited you to skip class with , your sister would have killed !”
“She can’t beat you anyway, what are you afraid of?” Su Qingqing muttered, saying very disgruntledly, “So, where did you go, really?”
“Africa…”
“What for?”
“Helping the poor areas, assisting grandmas across the streets, and helping grandpas chop wood and carry water.”
Su Qingqing imdiately snapped at his arm with her lobster cracker-like fingers, exclaiming, “You big dummy, do you think I’m a three-year-old?”
Chen Nan shook his head and sighed, “Ah, wild and unreasonable, stubborn and fiery, I’m really worried for your sister. How are you ever going to get married?”
“That’s none of your business!”
Su Qingqing gave a mischievous smile, sticking out her little tongue, and said cheerfully, “If I really can’t get married, then I’ll just stick by you.”
Chen Nan joked, “You can forget about it; I wouldn’t dare marry such a fierce wife.”
Su Qingqing chuckled and said no more.
Although both were joking, the mont Su Qingqing fell silent, the atmosphere imdiately turned a bit weird. Chen Nan hurriedly said, “Right, after I skipped class, Little Blue didn’t go ballistic, did she?”
“She was so annoyed, of course she lost it…”
Su Qingqing winked mischievously at Chen Nan, grinning as she said, “But, when it counted, I covered for you and asked for leave.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Nan expressed his solemn gratitude, quickly clasping his fists and saying, “Thanks for drawing your sword to help, heroine.”
“All I said was that you went on a matchmaking appointnt, it was no big deal, no need to thank .” Su Qingqing was smug with a hint of a mischievous smile.
Matchmaking appointnt!
Chen Nan collapsed. Such a la excuse, and I still thank your sister!
…
At half-past seven in the evening, the two of them returned ho.
Upon entering, Chen Nan saw Yun Fei lounging lazily on the couch, peeling an apple.
Surprisingly, Yun Fei didn’t pick a fight right away this ti.
“Catch.”
Tossing the freshly peeled apple to Chen Nan, Yun Fei said, “You don’t have to thank this ti. My dad has agreed to wait until after your graduation to have the wedding. He probably won’t be pushing for it again anyti soon.”
“No need for thanks. Just don’t pick on for no reason, and that’ll be good enough.”
Chen Nan shrugged, took a bite of the apple, and casually said, “Though we’ve managed to muddle through for now, I’ll be graduating in just over two months. You’d better hurry up and find a man to marry for real, otherwise, if our ruse gets busted, your parents might be pissed to death!”
Yun Fei gave him a glance and said indifferently, “What man do I need to find? If it really cos to it, you and I could just have a wedding ceremony.”
“A wedding… ceremony?”
Chen Nan was startled. He walked over and touched Yun Fei’s forehead. “Sister, are you okay in the head? A wedding isn’t sothing you just do on a whim!”
Yun Fei rolled her eyes at him and laughed, “It was just a joke. Look how scared you are.”
Although she said it in jest, she wasn’t truly averse to the idea—if Chen Nan was willing, she wouldn’t mind turning the pretense into reality, but she knew the likelihood was very slim.
Sighing, Su Qingqing said, “Today must be the day the sun rose from the west. You two t up and didn’t even fight, sigh, no fun at all. I’m going to take a shower and then head out for dinner.”
With that, she turned and headed for her room.
Chen Nan walked over and sat down beside Yun Fei, asking, “Where are Tiantian and Shi’er? And Sister Yixuan, how co I don’t see them around?”
“Big Sister has been quite busy lately, hiding in her room looking at so materials! As for your little sweetheart Shi’er, she seems to have gotten hooked on Angry Birds and is playing the ga with Tiantian,” Yun Fei replied calmly.
Chen Nan, ever casual, slung an arm over her shoulder and said, “Have you ever noticed, when you’re not splashing around or being fierce, like you are now, you’re both sexy and womanly, which is actually quite charming.”
Yun Fei pursed her lips. “I’ve always been like this, it’s just that after eting a scoundrel like you, you’ve infuriated into becoming a neurotic woman.”
“Don’t bla everything on !”
Chen Nan laughed and turned to look at her, saying, “Keep up like this from now on, it’s much better than that crazed lady behavior.”
Yun Fei stared him in the eyes and said seriously, “So, you’re saying you like this way?”
“Of course I do.”
Chen Nan calmly responded, thinking to himself, if I don’t like this, would I prefer that woman who’s always picking fights with ?
Yun Fei hesitated for a mont before asking, “Then… why won’t you have a wedding with ?”
