73 Baby Penguin, See You the Day After Tomorrow

Nan Ge and Shen Yanqing were just a step away from making things official. All they needed was an opportunity to break into it gently.

Her brother said that men could talk glibly, especially those who were older.

Because they were experienced, those inexperienced little girls could be easily controlled.

At that time, her brother had repeatedly reminded her very seriously. He had said that no man was good, including himself. This was especially true for a man who made unrealistic promises. Men like them should all die!

However, after hearing Shen Yanqing’s words, Nan Ge still could not help but be wildly tempted.

What her brother said made sense, but she still felt that Shen Yanqing was not that kind of person.

Even though her brother would always say bad things about Shen Yanqing, she was the one with real interaction with Shen Yanqing.

As for whether Shen Yanqing was what her brother said, she could still tell.

She certainly had the right judgment.

A person’s upbringing could not be faked. Even if Shen Yanqing was pretending at first, the two of them had known each other for a while now. For so long, he had not exposed anything.

There were only two explanations. One was that he was an actor with good acting skills, and the other was that he had displayed his true self.

If it was the former, she would accept it willingly.

After all, his acting skills were so good, but he did not become an award-winning actor. It was quite a waste of his talent to spend it fooling her.

She would just treat it as watching a show.

However, she followed her heart and still thought that he was the latter.

She had only rebelled twice in her life.

The first time, she was bewitched by Shen Yanqing and took the risk to apply for Huai University without telling her family.

The other time was now. She wanted to ignore her brother’s words and firmly choose Shen Yanqing.

“I…” Nan Ge seemed to think that she should be more serious, so she hurriedly got up.

Hearing the rustling on her side, Shen Yanqing did not rush her and waited patiently.

He looked calm as he stood in front of the French windows on the balcony.

However, his Adam’s apple bobbed and his racing heart still revealed his uneasiness.

He did not know what Nan Ge wanted to say. The minute of waiting was especially torturous.

This was no less than receiving a thousand cuts.

“Um, are you still there?” There was silence on the receiver in her ear, making Nan Ge almost think that he had hung up.

“Yes,” Shen Yanqing blurted out, unable to hide the urgency in his tone.

Sensing that there was something wrong with his tone just now, he clenched his fists and coughed. His eyelashes lowered to hide the shyness in his eyes.

This time, he softened his voice as usual. “I’m still here.”

“What… did you want to say?”

Nan Ge retracted her thoughts from his voice just now and reconnected her short-circuited brain. She said, “It’s nothing. I just wanted to ask what you wanted to eat that day.”

“When I tried booking a restaurant, many of them were booked up. Now, only private restaurants, hotpot, or Japanese food are available to choose from…”

Towards the end, Nan Ge’s voice became softer and softer, and she felt extremely guilty.

Previously, she had seen in television dramas that when the male and female leads confessed on their first date, it should be in a more romantic atmosphere. Of course, Western restaurants were the best choice.

Violin, candlelight, and red roses were the best options!

The rest of the options did not match her gown either!

Who would wear a six-figure high-end dress to eat hotpot?

It could be done, but it made her look crazy.

What was ridiculous now was that she might really become this crazy person.

Because she really could not book a table!!!

She really tried so hard for their relationship that she could cry now.

After all, she could not bring Shen Yanqing to her brother’s restaurant, right?

When the time came, there would probably be able to enter the place. However, it was unknown if they could come out in one piece.

Shen Yanqing was stunned for a moment and asked, “The restaurant? Are you talking about the restaurant we’re dining in on Valentine’s Day?”

“Yes… It’s not that I didn’t try. It’s just that people started booking their tables very early.”

It was not that she was too late. It was just that the others were too early!

“Sorry, I forgot to tell you.” Shen Yanqing heaved a sigh of relief. “I’ve already booked the restaurant. You don’t have to worry.”

“Didn’t you say that you were in Huai City that day? Just give me your location then. I’ll pick you up.”

“When did you book it?” Nan Ge was dumbfounded. If she remembered correctly, she had tried booking a restaurant the next day after making an appointment with Shen Yanqing.

There were no tables when she tried. Could it be that he had some kind of superpower?

“I started choosing a suitable restaurant the night we made an appointment and booked it the next morning.”

“Which one did you book?”

Shen Yanqing gave an English restaurant name.

“…” Nan Ge held it in for a long time before she said, “Darn it! So you were the one who booked the last table before me!”

“I was so close!”

...

It was the most expensive restaurant!

Their useless tacit understanding had increased again.

After complaining, Nan Ge was a little glad. “Fortunately, there were no more seats in the end. Otherwise, if I made another reservation, wouldn’t I have wasted a deposit?”

It was non-refundable!

“Did you want to book this restaurant from the start?” Shen Yanqing did not quite understand her words.

If he remembered correctly, the average cost of dining in this restaurant seemed to be beyond Nan Ge’s acceptable range…

“Not really.” Nan Ge told him the truth. “At first, I wanted to book other restaurants, but there were none available. In the end, I had no choice but to try this one.”

“This place is really too expensive.”

Nan Ge’s heart ached just thinking about it. She usually went out with her parents and brother to eat and rarely paid attention to the price.

This time, it was her turn to book the restaurant herself. She glanced at the price of the food and then at her little wallet. Sigh… she was so poor.

“Why didn’t you tell me about it? I was the one who asked you out, so I should’ve taken care of this.”

...

“You can’t think like that.”

“Originally, I was also thinking about how to ask you out that day. I just didn’t expect you to mention it first.”

“You’ve already invited me before I did, so of course you have to give me a chance to perform appropriately.”

“This time, you already asked me out, so I’ll arrange the rest. Next time, when I ask you out, you can bring me to eat hotpot or Japanese food.”

“Isn’t that good too?”

Nan Ge liked to listen to Shen Yanqing.

This was because he knew how to speak the best among everyone she knew.

For example, right now.

They were equals to begin with, and she was the one who took the initiative to invite him.

However, he did not say that he was a man, so he should be the one making the arrangements.

There was still a day and a half before Valentine’s Day. Nan Ge was really looking forward to this date more and more.

Before the call ended, Shen Yanqing stopped her and said to her in his usual gentle voice, “Baby Penguin, see you the day after tomorrow.”
