Chapter 623: Chapter 612: Zhan Nanqing’s Overbearing Advance

Chi Yuhang had no choice but to stop in his tracks, but instead of looking at Zhan Nanqing immediately, he focused his gaze on his own wrist.

He could feel the warmth of Zhan Nanqing’s palm, making him somewhat uncomfortable.

"Miss Zhan... your hand."

He had never been so close to a girl in his life, yet he kept getting into these intimate encounters with Zhan Nanqing over and over—first hugging her, and now...

Seeing Chi Yuhang so embarrassed, Zhan Nanqing rolled her eyes silently and let go of his hand.

"It’s just a hold, no big deal. It’s only because you ran off before I could finish speaking, so I had to grab you in a hurry,"

She found Chi Yuhang increasingly naïve; she had never seen a man be so innocent.

Qiao Jing, seeing how they interacted, shook her head helplessly and returned to her seat.

She had tried persuading Chi Yuhang before—this matter was best left to Zhan Nanqing. If he really didn’t want to, there was nothing she could do but seek someone else’s help.

While thinking this, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly noticed Chi Yuhang’s ears turning red from Zhan Nanqing holding his wrist?

Considering Chi Yuhang’s background, she could understand, although Zhan Nanqing was the exact opposite of him, she might even deliberately tease him about it.

Just as Qiao Jing was thinking this, she saw Zhan Nanqing suddenly hook her arm through Chi Yuhang’s arm, flashing him a meaningful smile.

Qiao Jing watched the smile on Zhan Nanqing’s face and couldn’t help but smile wryly, shaking her head helplessly.

Her premonition had come true.

Once Zhan Nanqing hooked his arm, Chi Yuhang stiffened on the spot, unsure of what to do next.

"I... Miss Zhan, why are you hooking your arm through mine?"

Zhan Nanqing, with a smile, hooked Chi Yuhang’s arm and even took a few steps toward him.

"I’ll be taking you to buy a suit later; just relax. I’m holding your arm to prepare for tomorrow. Otherwise, when we go to my house, will you keep a distance of a hundred and eighty thousand miles from me? If so, my mom will immediately see through our ruse."

Chi Yuhang, startled, let out an "Ah" and looked at his hooked arm, at a loss whether to pull away or not.

"But, I haven’t agreed yet."

He remembered he had never agreed to accompany her to the Zhan family; how come suddenly tomorrow he was supposed to go?

Zhan Nanqing clicked her tongue in annoyance.

"I don’t care. It’s gotten to this point, you have to go regardless. I’m taking you to buy a suit now. Are you free now?"

Chi Yuhang pursed his lips, pondering for a moment.

"I... am."

It was his lunch break now, and he could use tomorrow’s lunch break to visit the Zhan family.

But he was still worried; after all, it was the Zhan family, the capital’s wealthiest family.

Zhan Nanqing, pulling Chi Yuhang along, started walking out, saying:

"See, that settles it. Let’s go, let’s go. I’m taking you to buy a suit now. What you’re wearing really isn’t suitable."

Chi Yuhang looked awkwardly at Zhan Nanqing, but he didn’t know how to refuse and pull back his hand, so he just followed her.

When Qiao Jing saw Zhan Nanqing forcefully taking charge, she rubbed her temples and then sighed.

It was somewhat forceful, but it very much suited Zhan Nanqing’s personality. Plus, now that they had the right candidate before them, they certainly couldn’t just let him go.

The following noon.

Qiao Jing glanced at the elegantly dressed Zhan Nanqing and took out her phone to check the time.

"What did you say to Chi Yuhang yesterday? Is he going to Purple Garden by himself?"

This was the first time she wasn’t worried about being exposed, as the one pretending to be Nanqing’s boyfriend was finally a boy.

Besides, Chi Yuhang had a good personality. Although his family situation wasn’t very optimistic, his speech was very proper and he was very polite. Soon, Su Manhan was sure to be satisfied.

Zhan Nanqing applied some more lipstick and sighed helplessly while looking at herself in the mirror.

"Stop talking. I took a lot of persuading yesterday before he finally agreed, and he didn’t want to let me drive him, insisting on taking a cab to Purple Garden. But since he had agreed to pretend to be my boyfriend, I didn’t feel right asking for too much."

Qiao Jing nodded, and she and Zhan Nanqing headed to Purple Garden together.

As soon as they got out of the car, they saw Chi Yuhang, who was already waiting at the entrance of Purple Garden, admiring the architecture and hesitating to ring the bell.

Qiao Jing saw the astonishment on Chi Yuhang’s face, but what caught her attention more wasn’t just that. Unlike others who would stare unabashedly with extreme envy, and even a bit of jealousy, he did not.

On Chi Yuhang’s face, she saw astonishment and admiration, as well as determination.

Perhaps seeing this had spurred him to be more ambitious.

When Zhan Nanqing saw Chi Yuhang standing stiffly at the door like a statue, she quickly walked up to him in her high heels and naturally took his arm.

"Dear, let’s go inside."

Upon hearing Zhan Nanqing’s words, Chi Yuhang couldn’t help but stiffen, but the discomfort on his face quickly vanished.

"Okay."

Qiao Jing found it strange how Chi Yuhang’s behavior seemed as if the two had practiced many times.

Despite the fact that Chi Yuhang had turned red and stiff like a block of wood when Zhan Nanqing had taken his arm yesterday, today he managed to let her take his arm naturally and even accepted the affectionate nickname?

She didn’t let this question confuse her and asked:

"Nanqing, how did Chi Yuhang adapt so quickly?"

Zhan Nanqing proudly lifted her chin, even rubbing her arm against Chi Yuhang’s.

"For a realistic effect, I dragged him in front of the mall’s mirror and practiced dozens of times yesterday, which is why he can do this now."

Qiao Jing nodded, everything was within her expectations.

Feeling Zhan Nanqing’s rub, Chi Yuhang’s body stiffened again.

"Miss Zhan, this wasn’t part of yesterday’s practice, you—"

He hadn’t finished speaking when Zhan Nanqing interrupted him.

"Still calling me Miss Zhan?"

Chi Yuhang choked on her words, staring at her for a while before finally struggling to say two words.

"Nan... Qing..."

Zhan Nanqing rolled her eyes speechlessly and unceremoniously pinched the back of Chi Yuhang’s hand.

"Is my name that long? I should have trained you more on this yesterday. If you stammer like this when calling my name, my mom will spot it right away. What will we do if she realizes?"

Chi Yuhang "Oh"ed, and opened his mouth again to try calling Zhan Nanqing’s name.

"Nanqing."

Then Zhan Nanqing finally nodded in satisfaction.

Qiao Jing couldn’t help but curl the corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile. Just as she was about to let Chi Yuhang practice a few more times, something caught her eye in her peripheral vision—someone who shouldn’t be here.
