“Yunfan, I am sorry. I am sorry. I am so sorry. My sister didn’t do this on purpose. Rub this egg on your bruise. If it doesn’t help, maybe you should go to the hospital and get treatment later. We will pay for the medical expenses.” An Yue took out a boiled egg from the kitchen and handed it to Nie Yunfan. There was an apologetic look on her face.
An Yue did not expect that after she had just left for a while, her sister had managed to slap someone so hard that he fell to the ground.
After she changed her clothes and came out hurriedly from her room, she saw Nie Yunfan sitting on the floor with a dumbfounded expression and stroking the side of his face. He was looking in the direction of An Qi’s room.
Nie Yunfan took over the egg handed to him by An Yue. He tried to smile at her and tell her he was fine.
Though unfortunately, it was too painful for him to do that, as he could feel the pain when he tried to pull up the corner of his mouth. An Qi was too mad just now, she did not show him any mercy when she slapped him. There was a red handprint left on the side of his face at that moment.
After several fruitless attempts, Nie Yunfan had to give up. He opened his mouth and was about to speak, though An Qi, who was sitting across from him, had cut him off before he could make a sound.
“Yue Yue, come here. Stay away from that guy. If you run into him again on the street in the future, take a detour. Also, why are you apologizing to him? He is the one who made a mistake. He came to the girls’ house early in the morning, and he got in without permission. He even… The point is he deserves that. So you don’t have to feel bad for him. Come here now.”
After An Yue heard An Qi’s words, she was directly stunned on the spot. Her eyes, which were so pure and innocent, looked back and forth between Nie Yunfan and An Qi. She did not understand when they started to hate each other.
Especially An Qi, she was usually so kind to everyone. Yet she was treating Nie Yunfan like he was an enemy. She really could not figure out the reason.
Despite the fact that she did not understand, An Yue hesitated for a second, then she bowed apologetically to Nie Yunfan and obediently walked back to An Qi’s side.
The corners of Nie Yunfan’s mouth twitched at the sight. He really did not understand why his handsome face, which usually worked on ladies in high society, did not work on An Qi at all. He could not believe she could be so cruel as to slap his handsome face.
And, plus this time, this was already the second time this boorish woman did such a thing to him. Could it be that his charm had lost its power lately?
An Qi stood up and pulled An Yue behind her as she walked to her side. Then, she narrowed her eyes at Nie Yunfan and said, “Didn’t you just say you wanted to talk to us about something, Mr. Nie? You can start talking now. And once you have finished, and if there is nothing else, you can go, Mr. Nie.”
Nie Yunfan was speechless. He had just sat down, and he was already going to be kicked out so soon?
Looking at An Qi’s defensive attitude, Nie Yunfan unconsciously reached out and touched his face, once again wondering if his charm had lost its effect.
When An Qi saw that he said nothing for a long time, her face darkened. She gritted her teeth and called out, “Mr. Nie!”
Nie Yuefan jolted. He coughed awkwardly a few times and said in a serious manner, “Well, I actually came here to look for Chen.”
“You’re here to look for Yichen?” The sisters exchanged glances at each other. This somehow seemed a little… odd.
An Qi knitted her eyebrows. She was obviously not very satisfied with Nie Yunfan’s explanation. “Don’t you and Yichen stay together every day? Why did you come to us to look for him?”
He was still calm before An Qi said this. After she said that, Nie Yunfan got worked up and said, “That guy and I don’t stay together every day. You have no idea how unreliable he is. Ever since Shenghuang was established, he has gone missing regularly. When Shengshi was still operating, I knew he had something important he needed to handle. And that’s fine, but now that Shengshi is gone. He is still doing this. Sometimes when I really could not stand it anymore, I would criticize him about it. And do you know what he said to me? He actually said to me shamelessly that he was dating and he had no time!”
Nie Yunfan’s eyes were full of rage, probably because he was too angry. He even forgot about the pain on the side of his face. And his speaking speed accelerated as well. “Darn it! Darn in! Doesn’t that bastard know that those who often show off their love would end up breaking up early? How could he say something like that in front of a single man like me? He is obviously looking for a beating, am I right? But that was not the most intolerable thing he did, the most intolerable thing he did is that he is actually getting married!”
Nie Yunfan took a deep breath and continued, “As a matter of fact, as his best friend for so many years, I should be happy for him that the guy is finally taken. And I am fine with being his best man. But! How can that bastard disappear without a trace right after asking me to be his best man, leaving all the mess in the company to me to clean up? The company is not mine alone. This is simply intolerable! Have you ever seen such an unreliable person like him? Have you?”
Probably because he had finally found a channel to vent his anger after he had suppressed it for too long, Nie Yunfan suddenly turned into a chatterbox. Like pouring beans, he was gushing out all the grievances he had suffered all these years to them. Though unfortunately, his two listeners were not really sympathizing with him.
An Yue was frightened by Nie Yunfan’s mad appearance as he continued to yell. She carefully hid behind An Qi and said awkwardly, “Chen… must have his reasons, but still, please allow me to apologize on behalf of him. Thank you for all your hard work all these years, Yunfan.”
Compared to An Yue’s gentleness, An Qi was obviously much more direct. She looked askance at Nie Yunfan in an indifferent manner and concluded, “From what I see, you are even more unreliable than him.”
With a swoosh, Nie Yunfan felt his heart had been pierced by an arrow. He was seriously wounded!
Before Nie Yunfan could come around from the hard blow, An Qi cruelly added another insult to injury. “Since you are here to look for Yichen, Mr. Nie, let me tell you clearly, Yichen is not with us, so please look elsewhere.”
“An Qi!” An Yue shouted disapprovingly at An Qi. Nie Yunfan was still Han Yichen’s good buddy, no matter what. If it was possible, she did not want An Qi to have any conflicts with him. Besides, kicking a guest out of the house was not a proper thing to do.
An Qi gave An Yue a wink, signaling her to be silent and leave this matter to her.
An Yue pursed her lips. She was a little reluctant, but she was used to listening to An Qi’s orders since childhood. Hence, she chose to stay silent and hide behind An Qi in an obedient manner.
When Nie Yunfan heard An Qi’s words, the expression on his face suddenly stiffened. “He is really not here?”
“That’s right. You can leave now, Mr. Nie.”
“No! I am not leaving!”
“What did you say?” An Qi shot him a glare again.
But Nie Yunfan straightened his back and said with a serious face, “I am going to stay with you two today. I don’t believe that bastard Ah Chen won’t come to see you, Yue Yue.. I will wait here for him today!”
