Soon, Nan Ge's sobs were drowned out by the man's apology.

After a while, she calmed down, but when she spoke, her voice was still trembling, "I can't do this next time."

"Okay." Shen Yanqing patted her back, "Stop crying, your eyes will swell if you cry again."

"You have a good sleep, and I will take you out to play in the morning."

"If the snow stops, can I bring you here again next year when it snows for the first time?"

Nan Ge had no intention of watching Xue, "You won't be discharged from the hospital in the morning."

"I'm much better now. I'll be fine in the morning."

"That won't work either." Nan Ge had asked the doctor seriously before, so she didn't want him to fool her.

Shen Yanqing smiled and exhaled helplessly, "Well, how about you go out with them tomorrow morning?"

"This way I feel more at ease."

In the morning, everyone except Yuan Tesuke will have a half-day off.

There happened to be a few girls, and Nan Ge was not much different in age from them, so we could play together.

"Well, no." Nan Ge noticed that his posture was very tiring, so she decisively let go of her hand and withdrew from his arms, "Come up and rest, and leave me alone."

"Let's talk about things in the morning after we wake up."

He is a patient now. It is useless to say anything now. He should be told to rest.

"I'll just go and sleep on the chair."

Nan Ge was about to get up as she spoke, but fortunately Shen Yanqing's hands were quick and held her shoulders, "Just sleep here. The bed is not that small and it won't affect me."

"If I let you sleep on a chair, I probably won't be able to sleep that night."

Hearing this, Nan Ge hesitated for a moment and then lay back down.

When Shen Yanqing lay down, Nan Ge subconsciously shrank to the side.

There seemed to be a Chu River and Han boundary between them.

Nan Ge is already petite and cannot take up much space lying on one side.

Shen Yanqing turned sideways, with his back to her politely, and also leaned against the bed, not even touching her with the corner of his clothes.

This is the first time the two of them have slept together in the same bed.

Unexpectedly, I was actually in the hospital.

Nan Ge rubbed his sore eyes and looked at his back, no longer feeling sleepy.

Most of Shen Yanqing's pillow was given to her. It seemed that he was resting on a corner, but if you look closely, you will find that he was resting on his own arm.

Nan Ge pushed the pillow towards him.

Sensing the movement behind her, Shen Yanqing's open eyes trembled slightly.

Apparently he wasn't sleepy either.

"Lie down, it's so uncomfortable to sleep like this." Nan Ge reached out and poked his spine.

She didn't use any force and just touched it gently through a layer of shirt, but Shen Yanqing could still feel the temperature of her fingertips.

"It's okay, I'm not very sleepy yet."

After a moment of silence, Nan Ge asked him:

"Then do you want to go there tomorrow night?"

"Well. We still have to do what we promised."

"No, okay." It was exactly the same as Yuan Tesuke said.

For the first time, she felt that it was not entirely a good thing for a person to have too good a character.

Because...it's so easy to be bullied.

Because people like Shen Yanqing are easily constrained by those rules and regulations, and anything that goes against the rules is no different from "crime" in the eyes of this kind of people.

Others may not care, but they probably can't get over the hurdle in their own hearts.

Take for example what happened today.

Nan Ge couldn't help but poke him again, "You are so allergic to alcohol..."

She wanted to speak and educate him, but just in the middle of her words, her voice stopped abruptly.

Why does she want to educate Shen Yanqing?

What is wrong with a person who has good conduct, is well-educated, strict with himself and lenient with others?

It is the other party who is wrong!

Thinking of this, Nan Ge pursed his lips and became angrier the more he thought about it.

"You told him that you were not in good health, and he still forced you. You should have less contact with such people in the future."

She originally wanted to let him cut off contact with the other party, but then she thought that he and the other party were in a cooperative relationship.

This cannot be broken by just saying…

It's not like their children's game of house, where everything can be solved by just talking.

Sensing her depressed mood, Shen Yanqing turned around and faced her.

With the help of the faint light, he raised his hand and put it on her waist for the first time, pressing her towards him.

The man's body was hot and there were red marks on his neck.

Nan Ge blinked, lay in his arms, and suddenly lost his voice.

"Don't be angry anymore." Shen Yanqing patted her back gently, "After this cooperation, there will be no more contact."

"Originally I wanted to refuse, but when we first collaborated last year, I had other things to do and I couldn't be there. It was my fault."

"This time the other party has also been remembering this matter, so it is really difficult to shirk it later."

Because it was originally his fault, and the other party failed to persuade him to drink, and he felt that he was losing face. Later, he directly brought up the incident last year with a shameful face.

So he thought about it and drank a little bit.

"Actually, I am not giving him face, nor do I think that a stalemate in such an occasion will affect cooperation. I am just apologizing for my behavior last year."

"This will never happen again."

As soon as he explained it like this, Nan Ge understood.

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid, I won't suffer everything." Shen Yanqing knew what she was thinking, he ran his fingers through her long hair, patted her head gently, and said half-jokingly :

"As your brother said before, I am eight years older and entered society earlier. After all these years, Nan Ge, I am not a completely good person."

"I know how complicated and chaotic this society is. I even understood this before you were your age."

"Although I will restrain my behavior and have never done anything that crosses the line. But it is definitely not as clean as you think."

Nan Ge's brother had no problem speaking at all.

He has been up and down for many years and has a careful mind. He can never be as innocent and harmless as Nan Ge.

Because this circle itself is an abyss, and the road beneath your feet will collapse if you don't pay attention. Many people are wandering on the edge of the cliff, and it is impossible to find a good person here.

He just said this to tell Nan Ge that he was not that weak and easy to bully.

However, he is neither a good person nor a bad person.

He can still guarantee that he has never fallen.

Not even once.

"To put it simply, if it weren't for what happened last year, no one would advise me to drink the glass of wine yesterday."

"I have made it this far, so I naturally have the right to refuse. No one can force me, except myself."

"So don't worry, something like this will never happen in the future."

Nan Ge digested what he said and grasped the key point, "Then you won't touch alcohol in the future, right?"

"Not necessarily, you still need to drink a little on important occasions."

He looked serious: "For example, when I get married to you."

Nan Ge: "..."
