Chapter 2069: Would You Get Jealous If It Were You

“Okay, Mr. Pei.” Han Chuan took the car keys and drove off.

Bo Yanching extended his hand, and Nan Jiaojiao automatically placed hers in it, holding hands as they accompanied Pei Dongshi inside.

Despite being annoyed, Pei Dongshi wouldn’t actually take it out on her. He gave a bunch of reminders before leaving, suggesting she visit the master when she can. Just visiting is fine, but don’t cause trouble in the Medicine Garden.

At first, Nan Jiaojiao was happy to listen, but after a few more words, she was less willing. She curbed the impulse to kick him, saved up the energy, and pushed him with her hand. “Hurry up and leave. You’re too verbose. Can’t you save those words for your future wife and kids!”

Pei Dongshi gasped, grateful Bo Yanching was nearby and thankful no one else heard, or else they might assume some secretive relationship between them.

“I talk to you, and you listen to a few words, right? Future wife and kids, even if I get married, will I not have anything to say to you?”

Nan Jiaojiao was quite dismissive, “Go on! Half a lifetime, living like an NPC, often mysteriously appearing once in a while, then disappearing without a trace. You’re so busy, how come the verbosity grows with age.”

Pei Dongshi furrowed his brow intensely, nearly wanting to slap her twice, but he never won against her. He bottled up his temper and boarded the plane.

“Why do you always annoy him?”

Nan Jiaojiao sat in the car; the plane hadn’t taken off yet, but Pei Dongshi had boarded. She was amused, “He has excess emotions with nowhere to channel them, so he just treats me like a daughter, compared to others, it’s not as much talk. He worries about trivial matters, he can’t keep focusing on me, or else how would I get along with his future wife? She’d be jealous.”

Bo Yanching was surprised; her emotional intelligence, which occasionally surfaced, analyzed it quite accurately.

He turned sideways, arm bent, resting on her seatback, looking down with a soft gaze, eye corners slightly curved with a teasing yet slightly dangerous smile, “How does he nag you? Tell me.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s radar activated, cautiously glancing at him, “Are you jealous?”

“If I had a childhood friend who knows me inside and out and is constantly concerned about me, could you handle it?”

Nan Jiaojiao shrank into the seat, weak and helpless, peeking at him, “What childhood friend? There’s no childhood friend; he’s not that. He’s…he’s like a dad.”

“Huh.”

Bo Yanching grinned and clenched his molars slightly, “I’m asking you, are you jealous?”

Nan Jiaojiao was a bit puzzled. What’s up with him? He’d never been this provoked by Pei Dongshi before! She was straightforward; her social circle wasn’t hidden from him, and she always included him. Could it be bottled up for too long, causing internal damage, and now he wanted to settle accounts with her?

She slowly leaned toward him, hand extending across his waist, Bo Yanching’s other hand resting on the steering wheel. She was already in his embrace, yet he resisted holding her.

“Don’t use this trick; every time you seduce me to pass off like this, you can’t always get away with it. Today I have to ask…”

“Click.”

Nan Jiaojiao pulled down his seat belt and helped buckle it.

Bo Yanching was caught off guard as his body was tugged backward.

Nan Jiaojiao hurriedly returned to her seat, “Jealous.”

He raised an eyebrow, “Just say you’re jealous, why tie me up?”

“I’m afraid you’ll kiss me.”

She pointed at the airport entrance, “You’re parking at the entrance, people can see, I have a reputation to uphold.”
