At the female dormitory room 518 in Huai University the next morning.
It rained all night and only stopped when it was almost dawn.
Su Hui put on makeup meticulously and was in a hurry to go out on a date with her boyfriend.
She had just changed into her shoes when a familiar ringtone rang not far behind her.
Stunned, she turned around instinctively.
There was a bunk bed close to the balcony. The dark blue bed curtains were tightly drawn, and not a trace of light could enter. The straps on it swayed in the warm air conditioner wind.
Their dormitory was for four people, and the other two had classes in the morning.
As for the other one…
At that moment, the ringing stopped automatically.
Only then did Su Hui come back to her senses. She walked forward and gently lifted a corner of the bed curtain.
Someone was sleeping under a white floral blanket. The girl was sleeping soundly at this moment. The blanket was pulled up high to cover her face, revealing only a few strands of chestnut-colored long hair that were spread messily on the pillow.
"What the? Nan Ge, when did you come back?"
"Didn't you say last night that you were going to celebrate your childhood friend's birthday and would be spending the night out?"
Su Hui had a loud voice and her voice was even more penetrating than the ringtone earlier.
As expected, as soon as she finished speaking, the body under the blanket moved slightly. The girl's soft voice sounded through the blanket. "I came back at five in the morning."
"Alright, then I'm going out on a date. Remember to wake up in the afternoon. I'll wait for you in the classroom then. I won't be coming back to the dorm."
"…" No one responded.
Su Hui took a deep breath and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Nan Ge, don't be late this afternoon. It's Shen Yanqing's lecture!"
"Okay okay okay."
After a few random responses, the ball under the blanket calmly turned over, and then… there was nothing else.
Su Hui was helpless. Just as she was about to leave, she heard the phone on the upper bunk ring again.
Seeing Nan Ge had no intention of answering, she climbed up and gently pushed her shoulder. "Your phone keeps ringing. Someone has called many times. Is there something urgent? Why don't you get up and answer it?"
"Uh huh…" The lump under the blanket did not move.
"The caller's name is…" Su Hui took out the phone under her pillow, looked at it carefully, and froze for a split second. "Ugly People Always Make Trouble?"
Wait! Ugly People Always Make Trouble? This caller ID sounded terribly familiar. Who was it again?
"Huh?!"
The next second, the girl suddenly sat up, startling Su Hui.
Seeing she was awake, Su Hui stuffed the phone into her hand and retreated.
"Here. Take your phone. I have to go."
"Bye bye" After watching Su Hui leave, Nan Ge felt more awake.
She looked down at the caller ID flashing on her phone and picked it up before the other party hung up. Her tone was soft and flattering. "Hello, handsome. Good morning!"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, followed by a familiar sneer. "Nan Youyou, what were you up to last night? You're only awake now? Open your eyes and take a good look at the time. It's already 11:30 am."
"Erm. Sorry."
Nan Ge chuckled ingratiatingly.
"Good afternoon, handsome. Have you eaten? Do you need your dear sister to personally order takeout for you?"
A cold snort came from the other end. "No need. I was going to eat, but after this call with you, I guess I won't have much appetite anymore."
Nan Ge, "…" Sometimes she wished he could just die!
The siblings returned to the topic at hand.
"Why did you call me in the middle of the night last night?"
Hearing this, Nan Ge coughed and continued to pretend. "It's nothing important. I just realized that I haven't talked to you on the phone for a long time. I really miss your sexy voice."
"Have you heard enough? You are dismissed."
Nan Ge, "…"
"Ahem. I saw the news of a workaholic suddenly dying yesterday, so I wanted to remind you to take care of your health. It's best if…"
"It's so rare for you to suddenly grow a heart."
Nan Ge silently added, "Buy two more insurances."
Hearing the silence on the other end of the phone, Nan Ge could not help but laugh.
Stupid man. He was no match against her.
Nan Ge held the phone and lay back on the bed happily. Her head still hurt a little since she had a hangover.
She did not hear what her brother said in the first half of the sentence. She only heard the second half. "You haven't called me in forever. You won't have called me unless you wanted something from me. If you have something to say, just say it."
Hearing this, Nan Ge finally remembered the reason for her call.
She had wanted to soften him up before telling him what she wanted. Sadly, she did not manage to stop herself from retorting earlier.
She might as well be frank.
"Yu came to Huai City for his birthday yesterday and his father gave him a new car as a birthday present. Then, he kept mocking me for not being able to afford a new model and said that my car was no different from a tractor."
"And?"
"Oh, I've taken a fancy to a car recently. Do you catch my drift?"
"No, I don't."
"Sigh! I meant that I want a new car too!"
Previously, her father felt that it was not safe for a girl to drive, so he did not let her buy a car.
The car she was driving now was one of her brother's previous cars.
"Tsk. It's not entirely impossible. After all, we're biological siblings. If you ask, I won't say no to you."
Nan Ge's eyes lit up. She was about to thank him ingratiatingly when she heard her older brother make a 180-degree turn.
"The day your Lamborghini really drives like a tractor, I'll change it for you."
"…Are you still human?"
"I have no choice. Dad gave the order not to let you get a car. Even if I want to help, I can't go against him."
Taking a deep breath, Nan Ge went with Plan B instead. "It's fine. You don't have to pay for the entire car. I just need a little funding."
"I've calculated carefully. If I sell my current Lamborghini and add in the pocket money I saved previously, I'm just about $100,000 short. If you secretly transfer me the money, Dad won't notice."
"No, that's easy for you to say. After all, you won't be the one with your legs broken."
"I don't care! I want to change my car. Boohoo. Nan Zhe, don't force me to kneel down and beg you!"
"There's no use begging me."
"Of course, $100,000, or even $10,000,000 is nothing to me. You know that I'm in my prime and haven't been in a relationship yet, so I don't want to lose my legs just yet."
Nan Ge said, "In that case, don't force me to tell Dad that you gave me your second-hand Lamborghini and I've been driving it for two years."
"…"
"It's impossible to transfer money. Dad has been keeping a close eye on me recently. However, I recently opened a western restaurant with my friend. You're a sophomore, so you don't have a lot of classes. Why don't you get yourself a part-time job?"
Part-time job?
Miss Nan had never worked part-time in her life, but she was open to the suggestion. "Fine then!"
After hanging up the phone, Nan Zhe quickly sent her a GPS location. [I've already informed my friend. You can go over directly this weekend.]
Nan Youyou: [Okay! Muacks.]
