Chapter 174: You Will Definitely Like It

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

With one word from Zhai Sheng, Qiao Nan would behave like an obedient baby. With one command from him, Qiao Nan would react accordingly. The mature lady’s demeanor and style she exposed to Qiu Chenxi was totally absent.

Zhai Sheng heard a part of the two ladies’ earlier conversation.

Facing the change in Qiao Nan, Zhai Sheng did not feel annoyed. On the contrary, his feelings for Qiao Nan seemed to have deepened.

The more you cared about something, the more mess you might create. When facing Qiu Chenxi, Nan Nan was intimidating and subdued her. Before him, she always appeared so silly. He felt that it was most likely because he had an important position in Nan Nan’s heart, and that she truly cared about him.

Upon discovering this, Zhai Sheng’s mood seemed to have suddenly grown a pair of wings and soared high.

Once she was seated properly, Qiao Nan regained her senses and explained, “Brother Zhai, what Qiu Chenxi said earlier was untrue. I did not say those things. Brother Zhai, don’t misunderstand. Those words were made up by Qiu Chenxi!”

Zhai Sheng, who was gently smiling and was in an extremely good mood, suddenly turned gloomy, and the smile left his face. He stepped on the brakes and parked the car by the roadside, his dark eyes turned toward Qiao Nan. “What did you say?”

“…” Qiao Nan was stunned. She replied with caution, “Those words you heard earlier… They were all made up by Qiu Chenxi. We did not talk about that at all.”

Brother Zhai seemed to be unhappy now.

But, why?!

Zhai Sheng did not speak. He just stared at Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan was initially able to look straight at Zhai Sheng’s eyes, but as she felt Zhai Sheng’s anger seemingly rising, she could not tolerate further. She sat up straight. “Brother Zhai, we… are we not going back?”

Zhai Sheng pursed his lips. With his right hand, he pressed somewhere near his seatbelt. With a ‘ka’ sound, the seatbelt was loosened.

Qiao Nan shrank her neck. What did Brother Zhai want to do?

When Qiao Nan could not endure the nervousness any further, Zhai Sheng reached out with his hand and placed it on Qiao Nan’s head. The hair under this palm was so soft and silky, giving a wonderful feeling upon touch. Zhai Sheng reacted according to his wish and wanted to subdue Qiao Nan, so he rubbed Qiao Nan’s head a few times, causing Qiao Nan to sway and lose focus.

“Brother Zhai, what are you doing!” Qiao Nan lamented angrily. Who was the one who kept reminding her to keep up her image?

“Silly girl, it is fine if you do not know now. You will know eventually.” Even if you did not like me now, you definitely would in the future. That’s enough for me!

Before Qiao Nan could regain her focus, the car had already started making its move steadily.

Qiao Nan was totally confused. From Zhai Sheng’s side view, he seemed to have a faint smile, as if his mood had recovered and was not angry anymore. This time, it was Qiao Nan’s turn to feel depressed.

There was a saying that a woman’s heart was like a needle in the sea. But why did it seem that a man’s heart was more complicated than that of a woman?

The moment she got off the car, Qiao Nan could not help asking, “Brother Zhai, who exactly is the old man you brought me to see today?” Qiu Chenxi’s family background seemed to be quite good. An old master that even someone from such a well-to-do family wanted to get a.s.sociated with, albeit unreliable, must have something else.

“He is your master.” Having said this, Zhai Sheng added after some consideration, “I may need to return to the army and will not be back for a short period. If there is any matter, call me.”
