“What did I do wrong?”
“Could it be that Chen Qing’s brother, Chen Zhi, already knows about my filthy thoughts towards Mr. Chen?” Nangong Yan’s heart was pounding, but he stubbornly clung to the door, pleading, “Brother Chen, please, I just want to see Mr. Chen…”
Wen Huan was seething with anger. He glared at Nangong Yan, the man who had ruined his beloved sister’s reputation, and wished he could just grab a knife and slash him.
But Wen Huan still had some sense left. He knew that Nangong Yan was the eldest son of the Nangong family, and if anything were to happen, it would only bring trouble to his sister.
However, this guy had made such a big deal out of breaking off the engagement that the whole city was buzzing with the news. Now, everyone in Tang City knew that his beloved sister was supposedly narrow-minded, rejected by Nangong Yan, and had her engagement broken off before she even got married!
Wen Huan couldn’t imagine how his sister would find a husband after this. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, so he grabbed a broom, ready to sweep Nangong Yan out.
“He doesn’t have time to see you! Get lost, or I’ll beat you to death!”
Nangong Yan was utterly confused. “Wait, big brother, what did I do wrong?”
Oh, calling him “big brother” now? Nangong Yan’s heart fluttered again. I’m calling him “big brother” just like Chen Qing! This is only a few steps away from being together forever!
This morning, Nangong Yan had been a bit conflicted about suddenly realizing he might be attracted to men, but now he had completely embraced it. He had even started planning how he and Mr. Chen would live together in the future.
“What did you do wrong? You should be asking what you did right!” Wen Huan was fuming. “He doesn’t have time to see you. Get lost and stop bothering Chen… Chen Qing while he’s treating patients!”
Nangong Yan didn’t want to leave just like that, so he quickly said, “I’m here for treatment too! Brother, you can’t just kick out a sick man!”
Wen Huan sneered, “You look perfectly fine to me, not sick at all.”
Nangong Yan quickly replied, “No, no, I’m really sick! Only Mr. Chen can cure me!”
Wen Huan took a deep breath, restraining his urge to punch Nangong Yan, and coldly asked, “Fine, then tell me, what’s your illness?”
I’ve got lovesickness! Nangong Yan thought, but he didn’t dare say it out loud. He hesitated, unsure of what to say.
If he downplayed his illness, Brother Chen could treat it himself, and he still wouldn’t get to see Mr. Chen.
He needed to make his condition sound more serious!
Wen Huan demanded, “Well? What’s wrong with you?”
Nangong Yan panicked and blurted out, “There’s something wrong with my brain!”
Wen Huan: “…………”
Nangong Yan: “…………”
Both of them were stunned by the words that had just come out.
Nangong Yan immediately regretted it, thinking he had made a fool of himself. But then he realized that brain problems are hard to treat! Surely, only Mr. Chen could help with something like that!
Cheering up at the thought, Nangong Yan looked at Wen Huan with bright eyes. “Only Mr. Chen can cure me!”
Wen Huan: “…………”
In the end, Nangong Yan did get to see Wen Qingchen, but before he could even express his feelings, he was dragged back by people sent by the head of the Nangong family.
Wen Qingchen was surprised. “Oh, Nangong Young Master, what happened to you?”
Nangong Yan seized the opportunity to express his feelings: “Mr. Chen! The engagement cancellation is real! I don’t like Wen Qingchen at all. That kind of woman—I hate her the most! A woman like Wen Qingchen is absolutely not worthy of me!”
Wen Qingchen: “…………”
What the heck? Is this guy asking for death?
Wen Qingchen sneered coldly. “Nangong Yan, is it? You can leave now, and don’t ever let me see you again.”
Nangong Yan: “????”
Did I say something wrong?
