Chapter 19: Big Brother Being Cautious of a Brother-in-law
Nan Qiao finally stabilized herself. "Thank you, I"m fine. I just suddenly felt faint."
"That"s good. I"ll take my leave first." This male cla.s.smate was handsome and wore a pair of gla.s.ses. He looked refined and had a refreshing aura that made people want to approach him.
Nan Qiao knew this person. He was the second most handsome boy in school, Li Shuchen.
Li Shuchen and Huo Yichen were two people with opposite personalities. Li Shuchen was gentle and elegant, amiable to his cla.s.smates, and actively helped others. He was simply the perfect student in the hearts of the teachers and cla.s.smates.
However, Huo Yichen"s face repelled strangers from approaching him. He did not like to talk to people and did not interact with his cla.s.smates. He was simply a weirdo.
In addition, his family conditions were not good. He was only accepted into the school because his results were too good.
As for why Huo Yichen was ranked ahead of Li Shuchen, other than his results, it was also because Huo Yichen"s unruly aura attracted everyone"s attention.
After returning to cla.s.s, Nan Qiao"s gaze landed on Wan Wan. Wan Wan felt a sharp gaze on her. When she turned around, she realized that it was Nan Qiao. She immediately felt her hair stand on end and felt a chill run down her spine. What was she trying to do this time?
Later, Wan Wan received a message. It was from Nan Qiao.
"Come to the back door of the school after school unless you want everyone to know that you"re colluding with Nan Zhi."
Wan Wan bit her lip and looked at Nan Qiao with a pale face.
An intriguing expression appeared on Nan Qiao"s beautiful face. Then, she took out her phone and waved it.
Nan Qiao sent a message to her brother saying that she had something on and did not want him to pick her up.
The man in the CEO"s office looked at the phone beside him coldly, and then a bitter expression appeared on his face.
The a.s.sistant felt that it was very strange, so he could not help but ask, "Sir, did something happen?"
Murong Chen pondered for a long time but did not find anything. Then, he said, "Do you have a sister?"
"Yes, my sister is a little tyrant at home. My parents said that a girl should be treated like a princess so that she won"t run away with the first guy who gives her some benefits. Therefore, she"s very spoiled and gets everything she wants."
The a.s.sistant"s words were said with bitter tears, as if his status at home was lower than a dog"s.
Hearing the a.s.sistant"s words, Murong Chen felt that it made sense. His sister had just been found. How good would it be if he could let her continue calling him big brother sweetly? If she ran away with some random man one day, his heart would ache!
"Uncle and Auntie are right. What else did they say?"
"They didn"t say anything else… Does Sir"s matter have anything to do with a Little Sister?" The a.s.sistant knew that he had applied for leave yesterday and didn"t know what had happened.
"What could be the reason that your sister suddenly doesn"t want you to pick her up from school?" Murong Chen finally asked the reason that had troubled him for a long time.
He had just reunited with his sister. He did not want to be too demanding towards his sister and make her dislike him, but he was afraid that he had done something wrong to make her not want him to pick her up.
"There could be three reasons. First, she might find her brother embarra.s.sing. Second, the sister might be going on a date with other boys after school. Third, she might really have something on or she understands that her elder brother is busy with work."
In any case, the first reason definitely applied to his sister. In the past, his sister had said that she despised him for being too stupid and did not want him to pick her up from school.
Hearing this, Murong Chen"s back straightened, and there was a hint of panic on his face. Could it be that his sister despised him for embarra.s.sing her and thus did not want him to pick her up?
This kind of nervousness had been lingering in Murong Chen"s heart, and he could not get rid of it. Murong Chen became more and more uneasy.
"w.a.n.g Tao, do you think I"m embarra.s.sing in any way?"
w.a.n.g Tao thought that he had heard wrongly and his eyes almost popped out in surprise.
He exclaimed, "Sir, how can you be embarra.s.sing when you"re so handsome! If you were the one to pick up my sister from school, my sister would be overjoyed."
"Mirror."
It was obvious that Murong Chen did not believe w.a.n.g Tao"s admiration.
"I"ll go look for it." w.a.n.g Tao hurriedly went to look for a mirror.
In the past, how could there be such a thing in the office? He could only go out and ask other employees if they had brought a mirror to work.
The mirror came. Murong Chen held the mirror and looked at his reflection. His facial features were upright, and he was dressed up properly. He looked righteous. His sister probably would not despise him.
So she was going on a date with another boy?
At the thought of this, Murong Chen"s heart skipped a beat. His sister had just been found, and she was about to be kidnapped by another boy?
No way!
Such a thing could not happen!
"Prepare the car. Let"s go to No.1 Middle School now!" Murong Chen could not wait any longer.
He wanted to see which brat actually dared to kidnap his precious sister. If he found out, he would definitely break his legs!
The a.s.sistant was slightly stunned before he immediately went to prepare the car. However, at that moment, he seemed to have felt the killing intent on the President.
He had never heard of the President having a sister.
Moreover, from the President"s murderous aura, he did not look like he was going to pick up his sister. Instead, it looked like he was going to catch her in the act.
Oh ~ He understood.
This was the overprotective big brother type~
After school.
Nan Qiao was waiting for Wan Wan at the back door of the school. Although Wan Wan did not come, Nan Qiao was not anxious at all because she believed that with Wan Wan"s timid personality, she would definitely come.
As expected, another ten minutes pa.s.sed. Only after the sweepers left did Wan Wan slowly come over.
Wan Wan was still a little afraid when she saw Nan Qiao. She felt that Nan Qiao seemed to have become a different person and her hair stood on end.
"What exactly do you want?"
"I called you here because I have something to tell you. I already know what you and Nan Zhi have been doing behind my back." As she spoke, Nan Qiao gradually approached Wan Wan and said softly in her ear, "About that flower pot."
Nan Qiao"s voice sounded like a ghost in Wan Wan"s ears, scaring her so much that she almost fell.
Wan Wan immediately denied it. "No, I don"t know what you"re talking about."
"Is that so? You don"t know anything? Including the potted plant you put there? The surveillance video has already captured you. Are you still trying to deny it?"
"That"s impossible. I just went to place a potted plant there." Although Wan Wan was fl.u.s.tered, she knew that this matter was life-threatening and could only refuse to admit it.
Nan Qiao raised her phone. "I"ve already copied all the surveillance videos into my phone. We"ll know if it"s real or fake when we go to the police station. I"ll also kindly remind you that you were only captured in the surveillance video, but it has nothing to do with Nan Zhi. If you"re found guilty, you will have to bear full responsibility alone."
"No, you can"t go to the police. You"re not allowed to go to the police!"
Wan Wan stopped Nan Qiao from leaving.
Seeing Wan Wan"s reaction, Nan Qiao was even more certain of her thoughts, so all of this was not an accident.
She pitied herself for thinking that she owed Nan Zhi in her previous life, and was even grateful to Nan Zhi.
From the beginning to the end, this was a scam!
It was a huge scam!
