Chapter 69 - 69 Love Teachers Taking Turns
It sounded super cool!
Nan Ge could not help but exclaim and ask, “Then what happened?”
“What do you mean what happened?” The sound of a lighter came from Yu’s side. It sounded like he had lit a cigarette. After a while, he continued, “I don’t know her.”
“Anyway, those who were close to Brother Nan back then should know her.”
Nan Zhe and his childhood friends were from the same school even if they were in different classes. However, he was a few levels lower than Nan Zhe, so he did not know many things. He had only heard some things from others.
“They said she and Brother Nan were always inseparable.”
“I’m not sure about anything else.”
This was the first time Nan Ge had heard this. “I see… I’ve never heard my brother mention this before.”
“It’s been a long time, right? If they were junior high school classmates, it would have been ten years since they graduated from junior high school. How old were you at that time?”
“True.”
“So my brother recognized it?”
“I think so.”
Even someone he was not familiar with felt that they were 70 to 80% similar. Nan Zhe would definitely be able to recognize her at a glance.
“Has my brother never been in a relationship before? Is he just friends with this young lady?”
“This person in the photo seems to have always had short hair and looks like a little boy. As for whether they’ve dated… I don’t think so.”
For so many years, Nan Zhe was a typical example of someone who never dated anyone.
He was really out of place in their circles and had always been mocked by everyone as a real classic.
Not to mention that he had never been in a relationship before, and he had also never touched a woman when he was hanging out at nightclubs.
“Those who don’t know better would think that he’s keeping his chastity for someone,” Yu complained.
In the early years, many socialites in the circle did not hesitate to spend tens of millions to woo Nan Zhe. They expressed their love in all kinds of high-profile ways.
Unfortunately, Nan Zhe did not even look at them and hurt the hearts of countless girls.
Later on, even a male host in the club could not help but throw himself at Nan Zhe when he saw him, claiming that he had fallen in love.
This matter had to be mentioned once at every gathering. It could be considered a classic joke.
“In other words, I can go see Shen Yanqing?”
“Yes. When Brother Nan calls, I’ll say that you’re with me. It’ll definitely be fine.”
“The main thing is that you have to be careful these couple of days. Don’t expose yourself.”
“No, I won’t!” Nan Ge was confident.
Yu chuckled and did not comment. “If the date is successful, remember to share President Shen’s number.”
“I heard that Huasheng Group has a new product launch next month. Hehehe, I want to join in the fun.”
“Okay!”
——
After confirming that Nan Zhe’s agreement to the blind date was not a conspiracy, Nan Ge took his $50,000 to book a restaurant without stopping.
She asked many people and searched for a long time online. In the end, she chose a couple’s restaurant.
“Hello. Are there any free tables? I want to book a table for the evening on Valentine’s Day.”
“I’m sorry, Madam. People started making reservations for Valentine’s Day over half a month ago. There are no tables now.”
“Huh?”
After hanging up the phone, she tried two other restaurants, but the results were the same.
This was the first time Nan Ge had celebrated Valentine’s Day, and it was also the first time she knew that it was so difficult to book a restaurant on Valentine’s day.
She paced around the room anxiously and could not help but complain to Su Hui, “Why are restaurants so difficult to book?!”
Su Hui was clearly more experienced than her. “During times like this, the restaurants are usually booked up. If you wait a little longer, people might cancel their tables last minute, so you can try those. However, the chances are not high.”
“Speaking of which, why did you book the restaurant on Valentine’s Day? Shouldn’t President Shen be the one doing this?”
“Oh.” Nan Ge touched her nose in embarrassment and explained softly, “Because I asked him out.”
“F*ck?!”
Upon hearing this, Su Hui sat up from the bed. “Nan Ge, I’m impressed!”
“Oh really?”
“I’ve always thought that if President Shen doesn’t take the initiative, you’ll probably take a long time to take this step!”
“I didn’t expect this. How long has it been? Your progress is so fast!”
Hearing this, Nan Ge scratched her head awkwardly. “Huh? Is it too fast?”
“How should I put it?” Su Hui munched on melon seeds and explained, “It might be a little fast for you, but for others, they’ve probably already hit a home run.”
“Wait, what’s a home run?”
“Erh.” Su Hui thought for a moment and decided not to teach her bad things. “That’s not important.”
“You can’t even book a restaurant now, right?”
“Yes… No, hang on.” Nan Ge suddenly realized that there seemed to be one other restaurant.
...
“There’s one more I haven’t asked.”
That restaurant could be considered the best one in the entire Huai City.
At first, she was tempted when she saw the promotional page. Then, she looked at her wallet… It seemed a little hard on her wallet.
“I’ll call and see if there are tables there.”
Nan Ge did not hesitate anymore. She found the phone and called the restaurant.
The call went through very quickly and the staff answered with a standard line.
“I wanted to ask if there are any seats available on Valentine’s Day.”
“Valentine’s Day night, ma’am?”
“Yes.”
“I’m sorry. You called at a bad time.”
“Huh?” No tables again?
...
“The last seat in our restaurant was reserved an hour ago. I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay.” Nan Ge hung up in disappointment and went to look for Su Hui to think of a solution.
“Does this mean we can only eat by the roadside?”
“Not necessarily.” Su Hui smiled, and then another bucket of cold water was poured on her. “You might not even be able to get a seat at the roadside stall.”
Nan Ge was speechless. She was starting to feel desperate.
“Then I’ll take a look again. If it really doesn’t work out, nothing I can’t solve with money, right?” Money made the world go round. She didn’t believe that she could not get a table without money.
“Actually, it doesn’t matter where you eat. You can even go to a convenience store. The key is the romantic atmosphere that day and what you want to say!”
“Nan Ge, you have to seize the opportunity!”
“Don’t be afraid!”
“Throw away all your concerns! Attack directly!”
Su Hui was worried sick for her. “President Shen is obviously interested in you. You just need to take another step forward and this matter will be settled!”
“Do you understand?”
“Ah, I understand.” Nan Ge nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice.
Like Yu, Su Hui was worried that she would screw up.
The two dating mentors took turns.
Yu even sent a message asking: [Do you need me to go with you?]
[???] Nan Ge looked puzzled. [Go where?]
Yu: [I mean go with you on the date together!]
[I’ll cheer you on!]
[No, no. Three’s a crowd.]
[It’s fine. I don’t mind.]
[…] Is he crazy?
Yu did not have any confidence in Nan Ge at all. [Why don’t you call me secretly when the time comes? I’ll help you talk to President Shen. I guarantee that you’ll succeed.]
