Chapter 360: Brother, Have You Slept?

Then, Qin Lu’s expression darkened.

They had gone to Sun Chan’s place for dinner together, and he was the only one missing…

Qin Lu understood it was because of his leg injury that he couldn’t go.

But when he saw the spread of dishes that were obviously prepared by Nan Yan herself, he couldn’t help feeling upset.

After sending their messages and teasing Qin Lu, Shen Junqing and Bai Chen picked up their chopsticks and started eating happily.

Nan Yan, however, was completely unaware of a certain big boss’s bad mood, who couldn’t even eat his dinner looking at this table full of food.

After finishing their meal and spending some time in the courtyard, it was already past ten o’clock at night.

Knowing that the old man had a regular bedtime routine and would sleep by ten, Nan Yan and the others prepared to leave.

Before they left, Sun Chan called out to Nan Yan, “Yanyan, come to the Hundred Herb Garden with me tomorrow.” Nan Yan nodded, “Alright.”

“Go ahead, get some rest when you’re back.”

As they exited the courtyard, Shen Junqing and Bai Chen started to argue over who would drive Nan Yan home.

Shen Junqing spoke up first, “Yanyan, you can take Third Brother’s car, let me drive you.”

Bai Chen didn’t want to lose, “Little Yanyan, I’ll take you home.”

While they had argued with Qin Lu together earlier, in front of Nan Yan, they had turned from comrades to competitors.

This shift in roles felt entirely natural.

Neither Shen Junqing nor Bai Chen wanted to back down.

Finally, they both looked at Nan Yan and asked, “Yanyan, who would you like to take you?”

Nan Yan sighed inwardly. Could they please spare her from this battle?

All she wanted was a simple ride home; was that too much to ask?

Nan Yan, with a slight headache, was about to suggest that neither of them needed to drive her when a car parked across from them suddenly turned on its headlights.

The car slowly pulled up to them, and Wu Yue stepped out, speaking with great respect, “Miss Nan, Young Master asked me to come pick you up.”

“Alright,” Nan Yan breathed a sigh of relief. “Third Brother, Bai Chen, I’m heading off now. I’ll see you when I have the time.” With that, she quickly got into the car and closed the door.

Shen Junqing:

Bai Chen: ‘

Wu Yue felt that something was amiss with the atmosphere but couldn’t quite put his finger on it. However, since he had come to pick up Miss Nan, he decided to proceed with the task.

Shen Junqing and Bai Chen watched the car drive away, then exchanged glances, both snorting in unison, and turned to get into their respective cars…

Inside the car, as Wu Yue drove, he started a conversation:

“Miss Nan, the Young Master may not have been in a good mood today. He didn’t even eat dinner.”

“Since you all left in the afternoon, he locked himself in the study and hasn’t come out. I’m not sure if he’s facing any difficulties…”

Nan Yan, who had been feeling a bit drowsy, perked up upon hearing Wu Yue’s words. Not eating dinner and isolating himself in the study…

This situation didn’t sound right.

She thought for a moment and sent a message to Qin Lu: “Brother, have you slept?”

Qin Lu replied instantly: “Not yet.” His response was so prompt, as if he had been staring at his phone.

Nan Yan: “Have the kitchen prepare some food. I’ll have dinner with you later.” When Qin Lu received this message, he couldn’t help cursing Wu Yue for being a bigmouth who told Nan Yan everything.

However, his gloomy mood, which had persisted for several hours, suddenly improved upon reading Nan Yan’s message.

He curled up his lips slightly and replied casually, “Alright.”

This time, Wu Yue did a decent job.

He could consider giving him a double bonus for his year-end reward.

Half an hour later, the car slowly pulled into the Qin family’s residence.

Wu Yue also officially finished work for the day. After Nan Yan got out of the car, he said a few words before driving away while humming a tune.

Qin Lu had already controlled his wheelchair and was waiting for her in the living room when he heard the sound of the car.

As soon as Nan Yan entered the house, her gaze met his deep and affectionate eyes. They were so enchanting that she almost lost her composure. She discreetly calmed her suddenly racing heart and walked over to his side.

“Brother, did Wu Yue say that you’re not in a good mood? Can you talk to me about it?” Nan Yan asked.

“No,” Qin Lu denied firmly. “I just didn’t have much of an appetite earlier.”

Nan Yan looked at his usual expression and raised an eyebrow with a playful smile. “And now you have an appetite?”

Qin Lu replied in a serious tone, “With you accompanying me for dinner, of course, I have an appetite.”

Nan Yan didn’t comment and just smiled. She then pushed his wheelchair and headed towards the dining room.

As the wheelchair rolled over the wooden floor, making a slight noise, Qin Lu, who had initially been sitting upright, leaned back against the chair when Nan Yan started pushing him. This way, he seemed closer to her.

He lowered his gaze, turning the wristwatch on his wrist, and asked softly, “Yanyan, did Shen Junqing and Bai Chen accompany you to see Master Sun?” “Yes, they wanted to accompany me, so we went together,” Nan Yan replied.

Qin Lu raised his hand, covering hers on the armrest, and spoke in a deep, gentle voice, “Next time, I’ll accompany you.”

“Alright,” Nan Yan agreed.

Then, she remembered what had happened at Sun Chan’s residence, how Shen Junqing and Bai Chen had taken photos and Qin Lu hadn’t eaten dinner tonight. She finally made the connection.

“Brother, are you upset because of this?” she asked.

Qin Lu pursed his thin lips, looking somewhat uncomfortable on his porcelain-like face. He was indeed upset because of this incident.

Would the little one think he was being petty if she found out?

Seeing that he remained silent, Nan Yan was surprised. “No way, are you really upset?”

Qin Lu’s expression froze for a moment, then he firmly denied, “No…”

Nan Yan didn’t quite believe his denial.

Although she found it unexpected that Qin Lu had such a childish side, she also thought it added an adorable contrast to his character, especially when she remembered how Shen Junqing and Bai Chen often acted like kids. It made her think that Qin Lu, in this state, was surprisingly cute.

She deepened her smile and used a soothing tone, saying, “Once you’re feeling better, I’ll take you to see Second Master. Don’t be upset anymore; just eat your dinner like a good boy.”

Qin Lu: ‘

Fine.

Let the little one think that way.

He didn’t feel like explaining it now because it was getting late, and after dinner, they’d probably go to sleep soon.

So the food prepared by the kitchen was relatively light and easy to digest.

Nan Yan had already eaten at Sun Chan’s place, but when she saw Qin Lu eating alone, she felt a strange sense of pity for his loneliness.

So, she decided to keep him company and took a few bites herself.

Originally Qin Lu wasn’t hungry, and after the initial hunger had passed, he could have easily gone without eating.

However, with Nan Yan’s company, he unconsciously ended up eating more than he intended.

After finishing their meal, Nan Yan cleaned up the dishes and put them together.

“It’s not good for your health to sleep right after eating,” Nan Yan said.

“Brother, let me push you outside for a walk.”

“Okay. ”

It was already half-past eleven at night, and most people had gone to bed except for those on duty. Nan Yan pushed Qin Lu slowly through the garden.

The moonlight hung in the sky like water, and a gentle breeze dispersed the daytime’s restlessness, creating a pleasant atmosphere.

“Yanyan… ”

“Hmm?”
