Chapter 111: Big Brother Is Allergic to Milk?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Without the annoying Luo Wanbai, the banquet ended in a peaceful atmosphere. Murong Chen then took Nan Qiao home.
After what had happened at the banquet, even the energetic Nan Qiao was a little tired. After saying goodbye to everyone, she returned to her room.
A m.u.f.fled sound rang out. It was the sound of her body sinking into the soft bed.
Nan Qiao allowed herself to be surrounded by the overwhelming softness as she stared blankly at the ceiling.
This day… was really tiring.
Her mind was filled with this thought, but her cell phone suddenly vibrated twice.
Nan Qiao opened it. It was a message from Murong Chen.
[Good night, little princess.]
She was slightly stunned. When she sat up from the bed, she realized that there was a rose on the bedside table.
She almost forgot that she had not delivered milk to her Big Brother.
Murong Chen’s goodnight message successfully reminded Nan Qiao of this matter. Coincidentally, she also had something to tell her Big Brother.
The sound of footsteps came from the corner. The butler, Uncle Yang, sensed something and looked over. He happened to see Nan Qiao walking over with a gla.s.s of milk in her hand.
“Uncle Yang?”
Nan Qiao was a little surprised to see Uncle Yang. She didn’t expect him to be awake so late.
Uncle Yang replied respectfully, “I’m sending some doc.u.ments to Eldest Young Master. Is there anything you need?”
“It’s nothing. I’m just here to deliver a gla.s.s of milk to Big Brother so that he can sleep more peacefully at night.”
Although Murong Chen always appeared relaxed in front of Nan Qiao, Nan Qiao naturally knew how busy Murong Chen was. She had thought about it and realized that it would probably be useless to persuade him. Hence she could only let him sleep better.
However, when he heard Nan Qiao’s words, Uncle Yang was stunned for a long time. His expression was a little strange.
“Young Master is allergic to milk.”
Uncle Yang hesitated for a moment before saying this.
Nan Qiao could not be blamed for not knowing Murong Chen well, but it seemed like this was not the first time Nan Qiao had done this.
According to his understanding of the Eldest Young Master, Uncle Yang could imagine what had happened in an instant.
No wonder he had found the anti-allergy medicine in the cabinet when he was cleaning up the room last time. So that was how it was.
Uncle Yang knew, but Nan Qiao didn’t.
“Big Brother is allergic to milk?”
She was stunned for a long time. The image of the other party drinking the milk she sent appeared in her mind again. The things that she didn’t think were wrong now seemed different.
In the next second, before Uncle Yang could react, the gla.s.s of milk was stuffed into his hand, and Nan Qiao had already disappeared.
Dong dong dong.
The hurried knocking on the door pulled Murong Chen out of his deep thoughts about handling the doc.u.ments.
Qiaoqiao?
Murong Chen immediately realized who was knocking on the door so he quickly got up and walked over to open the door.
The moment the door opened, a pet.i.te figure pounced into his arms.
Murong Chen’s body, which was a little cold from the air conditioner, suddenly warmed up. He habitually put on a heartwarming smile and reached out to hold Nan Qiao in his arms. However, he suddenly felt the wetness on his chest.
“…Qiaoqiao?”
He called out to her hesitantly.
“Yeah.”
A m.u.f.fled voice came from his chest. At this moment, Nan Qiao’s heart was filled with mixed emotions, and her eyes were burning.
Murong Chen panicked when he realized that she was crying. He held Nan Qiao tightly in his arms and recalled what had happened today.
“Who upset you?”
“Luo Wanbai? Or is it still that Cheng Jie. Don’t cry, I’ll call someone—”
After thinking about it, Murong Chen directly picked out a few people that Nan Qiao hated and planned to teach them a lesson so that his little princess could calm down. However, before he could finish speaking, he heard Nan Qiao say something.
“It’s Big Brother.”
??
Murong Chen’s mind went blank for a moment.
He thought of everyone but himself.
“Why didn’t Big Brother tell me that you’re allergic to milk?”
After calming herself down, Nan Qiao finally looked up at Murong Chen.
She unconsciously sniffed and looked at Murong Chen with tears in her eyes. Her cheeks were also slightly red. She looked like she wanted to hug him tightly and never let go.
“Why did you drink the milk I gave you?”
When Nan Qiao asked this question, she felt that the self-reproach in her heart had reached its peak.
When it came to allergies, the lightest consequence was to take medicine and be sent to the hospital. But if it became serious, he could die!
“I didn’t want to let Qiaoqiao’s good intentions go to waste.”
Murong Chen answered the question without thinking.
His tone was straightforward, unlike his usual shrewd and cold appearance in the company. It was as if Nan Qiao had given him some sweet candy that he naturally accepted.
However, when Nan Qiao heard this, she couldn’t control her hot tears. She let them flow freely on her cheeks. She didn’t care that her eyes were sore and red from crying.
Murong Chen went through all the secret manuals that he had found to make a girl happy, but he couldn’t find a solution.
Seeing Nan Qiao crying like this, Murong Chen’s movements seemed to be in a mess. He hurriedly wiped her tears with a handkerchief and felt his heart ache.
“It’s all my fault for making Qiaoqiao unhappy.”
Murong Chen was blaming himself, but it made Nan Qiao’s sadness multiply even more.
She took a deep breath, as if trying to calm herself.
It was precisely because she knew how much her Big Brother liked her that Nan Qiao couldn’t help but feel sad and blame herself.
Not only did Big Brother not reject his Little Sister, who had suddenly appeared, but he also gave her all his love and favor. This was a treatment that Nan Qiao had never enjoyed before.
Here, she enjoyed the love and gentleness that she had never had but yearned for. These were things that the Nan family did not provide her with.
Therefore, in Nan Qiao’s heart, Murong Chen had long become an indispensable existence. He had become the person she cared about the most.
Nan Qiao could feel Murong Chen’s love for her, whether it was the roses he gave her every day, the swing he set up, or even the fact that he cared about her at all times and did not want her to be bullied.
However, Nan Qiao couldn’t control herself when she found out he drank the milk she gave him.
Tears streamed down her face, like a flood that had broken through a dam. There was no sign of it ending, making the handkerchief’s effect minimal.
“Don’t cry, Qiaoqiao.”
Murong Chen sighed. He squatted down slightly and maintained his usual att.i.tude. There was a helpless gentleness on his face that he had never seen before.
His low and magnetic voice was so soft that it didn’t sound like him, but it was filled with love.
“If the little princess cries again, I’ll be a sinner…”
Looking at Nan Qiao’s red face, Murong Chen’s heart clenched into a ball. He felt that he was a b.a.s.t.a.r.d for making his Little Sister so sad.
“Then promise me you won’t do it again.”
This incident made Nan Qiao realize that it was not a good thing that her Big Brother indulged her so much.
If such a thing happened again, Nan Qiao would definitely not be able to accept it. She did not want to make such a mistake again.
“Okay, I promise I won’t do it again.”
Murong Chen made a promise to Nan Qiao with a solemn expression.
Seeing Nan Qiao this sad, he made a decision to not make her sad like this again..
