Chapter 12

President Shen Is Allergic to Alcohol

Nan Ge was the youngest among the four people in the dormitory.

Everyone knew her personality well. She was a typical innocent girl. Usually, everyone treated her like a little sister.

Su Hui was naturally worried that she would get conned when she went out.

Under Su Hui’s continuous bombardment, Nan Ge finally found a gap with difficulty and interrupted. “Actually, the guy isn’t old and bald. He’s a good person…”

Putting everything else aside, Shen Yanqing’s figure was above average.

He had an inverted triangle figure and typical broad shoulders and a narrow waist. The first time she saw him in the rain, she swallowed her saliva. There was only one thought in her mind. She wanted to see if he had abs and wanted to touch him.

She had attended some entertainment industry banquets with her family before and had seen many male celebrities.

She had one thing to say about the male celebrities. They were not as hot as Shen Yanqing.

“He’s eight years older than you. How can he be a good man? He’s almost 30 years old!”

Su Hui felt that Nan Ge’s mind was not working. This brat had no idea how dangerous this society was!

Nan Ge sighed. “That’s not what you said last time.”

“What last time?”

“The last time Shen Yanqing gave a lecture, you praised him for being handsome.”

“How can that be the same?” Su Hui rolled her eyes. “Shen Yanqing is Shen Yanqing. What does he have to do with this?”

Nan Ge was speechless. There was actually someone with deeper double standards than her.

“Let’s put it this way. If you deliver food to Shen Yanqing, I won’t say a word.”

“Why?”

“There’s no difference between throwing you to Shen Yanqing and handing you over to the police.”

Su Hui concluded. “Both of them are equally trustworthy.”

Nan Ge remarked, “I don’t know if he’s reliable, but you are certainly ridiculous.”

“But then again, I’m indeed delivering food to Shen Yanqing.”

“Are you kidding me?” Su Hui did not believe her. “I used Shen Yanqing as an example. Why did you take it seriously?”

“The company has a canteen, alright? Why would he order takeout?”

Nan Ge snapped her fingers. “I like women like you who don’t shed a tear until they see the coffin.”

As she spoke, she took out the takeout receipt from her pocket and pointed at the address on it. She enunciated each word clearly. “Come on. Let’s read it out loud together. Huasheng Group’s president’s office, Mr. Shen.”

Su Hui was dumbfounded.

“F*ck!” Su Hui exploded. “It’s really Shen Yanqing?!”

“Why would I lie to you?”

“Hang on. Isn’t it awkward to see him?”

“It was a little awkward at first, but… he’s a nice guy.”

Su Hui knew that there was a story between the two of them. “Tell me. Just spill it!”

“Oh my. It’s time for me to revise.”

“Don’t go, Nan Ge!”

——

For the next three days, Nan Ge would appear at Huasheng Group’s president’s office punctually every afternoon.

From the security guards to the receptionist and the assistant secretary, everyone basically knew her. Moreover, Nan Ge had a good personality and was a chatterbox. She got along well with everyone in just a few words.

“Nan Ge, you’re finally here!”

“We’re all waiting for you and the food!”

As soon as she entered the president’s office, a secretary came forward to help her take the food and greeted her warmly.

“Nan Ge, do you want a cup of coffee?”

“Sure. Thank you, Sister Miaomiao!”

“You’re welcome.” The secretary, Miaomiao, winked at her and went to make coffee.

“Oh. What’s this?” The others opened the takeout and were a little puzzled when they saw the extra drinks. “Nan Ge, did we order this?”

Nan Ge leaned over to take a look and nodded. “This is our restaurant’s new product. The manager said to bring it for you to try. Everyone has a share.”

“It’s fruit wine brewed by our restaurant. The alcohol content is very low, so it won’t cause you any trouble later when you get back to work.”

“Thank you, Nan Ge my dear!”

“What are you talking about?” Assistant Yuan heard everyone cheering when he came out of the office. He walked over curiously.

He nodded slightly when he saw Nan Ge. “Good afternoon, Miss Nan Ge.”

“Good afternoon.” Nan Ge took the opportunity to pick up a serving of food and fruit wine. “This is fruit wine made by our restaurant. Assistant Yuan, remember to try it.”

“I’ll bring Mr. Shen his food first.”

“Oh, sure… No, hang on!” Assistant Yuan subconsciously agreed, but in the next second, he quickly turned around and stopped her. “Wait!”

Nan Ge was puzzled and was forced to stop. “What’s wrong?”

“I’m sorry, Miss Nan Ge. Please give me this glass of fruit wine.”

Assistant Yuan took the glass from her hand. Under her puzzled gaze, he explained, “President Shen is allergic to alcohol. He can’t drink it.”

...

“…” Nan Ge was stunned.

She looked at the cup in Assistant Yuan’s hand and her big eyes blinked a few times as if she was recalling something.

A few seconds later, her red lips moved slightly as she said, “But he drank at the bar that day.”

“Bar?” Assistant Yuan reacted quickly. “Are you talking about OC Bar that just opened not long ago?”

“That’s right. I treated him to a drink at that time, and he drank half a glass.”

Assistant Yuan’s eyes widened as he finally found the source of the trouble.

“So it was you who made President Shen drink alcohol!”

Meeting his shocked gaze, Nan Ge subconsciously took a step back and swallowed nervously. “He, he’s really allergic…”

At this moment, Nan Ge nearly wanted to kneel in front of Assistant Yuan and apologize for what she had done!

“Correct.”

After Assistant Yuan nodded, he realized that he had scared Nan Ge. He quickly explained, “I don’t mean to blame you. How could you have known, right?”

...

“I’m just a little surprised. Because of President Shen’s allergy, he usually doesn’t touch alcohol during social events.”

Even if the other party was an extremely difficult person to deal with, Shen Yanqing could still resolve it with ease. He would still insist on not touching alcohol.

After the car accident that day, the driver rushed over and sent Shen Yanqing to the bar first, leaving him at the scene to deal with the aftermath.

When he arrived, Shen Yanqing was about to leave.

Shen Yanqing had told him to go in and return the floral umbrella and that was the only unusual thing that happened that night.

He knew that Shen Yanqing was going to meet the bar owner and would not drink or stay long.

Therefore, not long after, Shen Yanqing came out.

However, as soon as he got into the car, Shen Yanqing said that he wanted to go to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, he realized that Shen Yanqing’s skin had already begun to turn red and swollen. It was a classic symptom of alcohol allergy.

At that time, he had also asked why Shen Yanqing had to drink.

Shen Yanqing shook his head and did not say anything.

Although he was curious, he did not dare to continue asking.

Now, the mystery was finally revealed.

In the office, Shen Yanqing waited and looked at the time every now and then.

Seeing that Nan Ge was not here yet, he was a little worried that something would happen to her on the way.

“Nan Ge?”

As soon as he pushed the door open, Shen Yanqing saw the figure he had been waiting for.

The little girl’s back was facing him.

For some reason, he could sense that Nan Ge was not particularly happy just by looking at her from behind.
