Chapter 395: Protecting An Nuo Starts With Me

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Faced with Murong Qiao’s many questions, An Nuo’s usual smooth thoughts were stuck.

“He runs between the school and his part-time job every day, so he’s under a lot of pressure. He probably doesn’t want tobe in a relationship either.”

She didn’t seem to realize that she was finding an excuse for Qing Chuan.

An Nuo tried to say something else. “Moreover, earning money is one thing.

Perhaps he doesn’t have any feelings for those people?

They were all weak words.

Murong Qiao only looked at An Nuo quietly and listened to her say those excuses that could easily be torn apart. She only spoke after An Nuo finished speaking.

“You’re leaning against a fire. Don’t you feel anything?” she asked.

These words were like a basin of cold water poured on An Nuo’s head, making her originally lively and fervent thoughts suddenly clear up.

An Nuo and Murong Qiao’s concerned gazes met and they nodded gently.

“I get it.”

All the thoughts in her mind that were biased towards Qing Chuan dissipated into nothingness under Murong Qiao’s gaze.

“I’ve given up on him, Qiao. I won’t do anything stupid,” she said again.

Then, as if they were huddling together for warmth, An Nuo wrapped her arms around Murong Qiao’s slender waist and tilted her head gently. She leaned against Murong Qiao’s body and felt the heat on her body.

She liked the smell on Murong Qiao’s body. She liked the light but meaningful fragrance that made her subconsciously feel at ease.

She was clearly not wearing perfume, and An Nuo had clearly used the same kind of shower gel and body lotion as her, but Murong Qiao was always unique.

She was the only person that could make An Nuo feel extremely safe every time she thought of her.

She felt that hugging her was not enough, so she changed to a lying position and rested her head on Murong Qiao’s lap. Her eyes were sparkling as she looked at Murong Qiao’s beautiful side profile and chin. She felt that she couldn’t get enough of her.

The feeling of An Nuo moving from time to time reminded Murong Qiao of those childish kittens.

“Alright, don’t think too much. Sleep.” Murong Qiao reached out and covered

An Nuo’s eyes.

Her palm was warm and dry, and it covered her eyes. An Nuo subconsciously closed her eyes and actually felt sleepy again.

The person who was extremely awake just now had the desire to sleep after a few minutes because of Murong Qiao.

That night, An Nuo had a good dream.

Qing Chuan’s matter did not leave much of a ripple in An Nuo’s heart, especially with Murong Qiao’s timely persuasion and a.n.a.lysis, it made her will firmer and unwavering.

However, it attracted Murong Qiao’s attention.

It was best to strangle bad things to death at the first sign. Murong Qiao knew the importance of this.

Qing Chuan’s sudden call in the middle of the night must not be anything good.

Even if it was just a simple chat like An Nuo had said, she couldn’t be sure what Qing Chuan was thinking.

Most importantly, Murong Qiao wanted to stop An Nuo from acting foolishly. In the next few days, life continued as usual, but Qing Chuan couldn’t sit still. During an important lesson, Qing Chuan looked at his cell phone so often that one couldn’t help but wonder if there was a special situation.

Sitting beside Qing Chuan, the students who had a good relationship with him couldn’t help but gossip about him softly.

“What’s wrong with you? Do you have a new lover?” the cla.s.smate asked.

Qing Chuan pursed his lips and stared at his cell phone for a long time. After confirming that there were no messages from An Nuo, he couldn’t help but answer his cla.s.smate’s questions.

“No.” Qing Chuan was a little frustrated.

It had been five days since he called An Nuo, but there was no movement from her at all.

Has his charm lost its effect? How was that possible?

Qing Chuan subconsciously denied it. His appearance had always been like a fish in water among women. It was impossible for him to fail.

Then why didn’t An Nuo contact him?

Qing Chuan couldn’t understand.

The cla.s.smate pursed his lips. “Come on, I’ll believe you even if you say you have a girlfriend.”

The teacher on stage had looked at Qing Chuan so many times that everyone could tell. Only Qing Chuan, who was still looking at his cell phone, did not know it.

Qing Chuan did not reply.

His heart was filled with An Nuo. He thought that since he had already taken the initiative to call An Nuo and given her some benefits, An Nuo would take the initiative to contact him.

It was like a fish that had bitten the bait and should be caught by him.

But now, An Nuo’s performance was as if she had swam to the side of the hook and touched or sniffed the bait, giving Qing Chuan the illusion that the fish had taken the bait. Then, she turned around and slipped away mercilessly.

An Nuo seemed to have forgotten about him and ignored him.

In fact, during cla.s.s the day before yesterday, An Nuo was still sitting in the first row. Qing Chuan even specially chose the seat beside her to sit down, but even so, the two of them didn’t even make eye contact.

All of this was different from what Qing Chuan had expected.

From the moment An Nuo reacted to him without enthusiasm, the direction of the matter began to escape Qing Chuan’s self-righteous control.

“Alright, this lesson will end here.” Finally, the teacher ended the lecture. Qing Chuan didn’t have the time to think too much about it. After this cla.s.s, he still had to go to the cafe to work part-time.

Following the crowd, Qing Chuan walked out with a cold expression. His mood didn’t improve even when he reached the cafe.

He just didn’t understand what was wrong.

Could it be that he had to contact An Nuo again? But if that was the case, Qing Chuan felt that it was too degrading. But if he didn’t contact and remind her, Qing Chuan would feel even more uncertain about An Nuo.

It was rare for him to experience the feeling of being left out.

A crisp and rhythmic sound of high heels came from the door and jumped into Qing Chuan’s ears.

“Welcome…”

Qing Chuan’s expression did not reveal his thoughts. He stood at the door in a handsome fitting uniform to welcome the guests in, but he was stunned when his gaze met a pair of casual and slender eyes.

“h.e.l.lo, what do you need?” Qing Chuan put on his signature smile.

The person who met his gaze was Murong Qiao, who had specially come to look for him.

Murong Qiao chose a seat by the window, but she didn’t order anything. “I m here to talk to you.”

‘With him?’

“I don’t seem to… know you?” Qing Chuan tried his best not to look at Murong Qiao with a less offensive gaze.

He didn’t remember ever seeing a girl like this… beautiful and gorgeous, but also looking like a rich guest.

Qing Chuan did not think of An Nuo, nor did he know that the person in front of him was Murong Qiao, who had the best relationship with An Nuo. After all, he only knew about the existence of Murong Qiao, but he didn’t know Murong Qiao’s appearance.

Murong Qiao said bluntly, “I’m here for An Nuo. My name is Murong Qiao.”

“An Nuo?” Qing Chuan perked up.

He first informed the store manager before sitting opposite Murong Qiao.

As expected, An Nuo was still too embarra.s.sed to take the initiative to talk to him, so she asked Murong Qiao to come over. Hope appeared in Qing Chuan’s heart again.

But Murong Qiao only took out a doc.u.ment bag and smashed it in front of him. Qing Chuan did not understand. He reached out and opened the doc.u.ment bag. When he saw the contents clearly, his expression suddenly changed.

It contained everything about his family background.

From his childhood to adulthood, almost everything was written in detail. There were even many things about his “part-time jobs .

“You investigated me?” Qing Chuan even lost his voice.

No one had a good expression after being embarra.s.sed like this. Moreover, Qing Chuan only realized now that Murong Qiao had come with ill intentions.

Murong Qiao sneered. “Don’t contact An Nuo again, or I won’t be polite.” “You—” Qing Chuan glared.

However, he wanted to say that he was afraid that Murong Qiao would take out something again..
