Chapter 2762: Chapter 2762: Halt, You’re Not Allowed to Leave! (3)

"Are you coming back to the planning department job?" Meimei held onto his sleeve, refusing to let go, hearing his words that sounded like a farewell, she held on even tighter.

She had a feeling that if she let go, she might never see him again.

Although this feeling was strange, it felt very real.

"What are you thinking? I just want to take a few days off because I’m in a bad mood, I’m not planning to hide forever." Jiang Nan laughed heartily, his expression turning nonchalant again.

He raised his hand to pat her little head, "It’s getting late, it’s work time now. You’ve been out for too long, aren’t you afraid your supervisor will punish you?"

"You said it, you’re my boss now, with you around, no one will bully me." Meimei smiled brightly, looking up with a face full of rightful pride.

"..."

She’s using his words against him now, and it felt good.

Perhaps, this is the most suitable way for them to interact—with her not being the one he can be with, she is still his most beloved sister who needs his care.

"Jiang Nan, don’t take too long a break, I’m afraid if you’re not in the planning department, someone will bully me." Meimei blinked several times, thought about it, and added.

Jiang Nan looked at her delicate face, a slight smile tugging at his lips, his gaze becoming profound.

His Meimei is so kind, trying to comfort him with such a far-fetched reason, what else should he cling onto?

"I promise you, at the latest by next week, I’ll return to the company. But for now, you need to go back," Jiang Nan took her hand, removing it from his sleeve, and pointed at the parking lot exit.

"..."

Meimei looked at his smiling face, ensuring he was really okay, before turning around and walking out.

As she reached the parking lot entrance, still worried, she turned back, seeing Jiang Nan still standing there watching her. Feeling guilty, she turned her head quickly and left the parking lot.

Only when her figure disappeared, did Jiang Nan collect himself and return to his car.

Leaning against the car seat, his mind was filled with images of her smile and demeanor.

Fifteen years, some habits are already etched deep in his bones, trying to change them might be impossible to do just quickly.

He took out a pack of cigarettes, unconsciously lit one, and took a deep drag to his lips.

The taste of nicotine temporarily numbed his nerves, the smoke lingered on his handsome face, blocking his vision, making the figure in his mind even clearer.

"Pa——"

He wasn’t allowed to indulge in his thoughts for long, suddenly a hand reached out, knocking the cigarette out of his hand.

Before he could react, the car door was pulled open from outside.

"Are you sick? Hiding here smoking gloomily, I thought your car was on fire. Sorry, I was a bit heavy-handed just now." Youyou stood outside the car door, swinging her little whip.

Her beautiful big eyes looked at Jiang Nan’s hand, reddened by her slap, without much sincerity in her apology.

Without waiting for him to speak, she continued by herself.

"But seriously, you’re so young, what’s good about it that you’re addicted to smoking? Tsk tsk, apparently one can’t judge by appearances, you seemed decent but actually merely outwardly so."

"..."

Jiang Nan’s face darkened.

He just wanted to quietly smoke a cigarette, what did he do wrong to deserve this?

Being inexplicably hit was one thing, but now his character is also being put into question.
