I Deliver Food in a Lamborghini

55 Some Kind of Bad Luck!

“Let me tell you. I already discovered it the last time we met.”

“A man like Shen Yanqing is not that simple.”

“What do people mean by him being gentle and refined? Tsk, tsk. That’s all on the surface.”

“He must be a peacock in private. Trust me!”

!!

“…”

After Nan Ge heard his words, the corners of her mouth twitched violently.

“It’s just a Happy New Year message. It’s not what you think!”

“Hmph.” A certain someone looked away arrogantly.

Nan Ge did not know what to say. She added silently, “Fine. He even sent a red packet for the New Year.”

“I just knew it!”

What was with his attitude? Nan Ge held her forehead speechlessly. “Isn’t that normal?”

Her brother was certainly “very smart” now. His brain was like a landslide.

“How much did he send?”

“Not much. Just $8,888.”

“…” Nan Zhe sat up straight and his pupils widened. “Does this sound ‘normal’ to you?”

“This is called a peacock spreading its tail!”

“Shut up!”

“Then why did he only send it to you and not me?”

“Aren’t you being unreasonable?! He’s not familiar with you. Who do you think you are?”

“Heh. Nan Youyou, you little brat. Do you think you’ve grown up and I can no longer control you?”

“No matter what it is, I’m considered his future brother-in-law if you date!”

Nan Ge raised her hand and slapped his back. She was so embarrassed that her face turned red. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

Just as the siblings were in a deadlock, Nan Zhe’s phone vibrated.

He unlocked it and glanced at it casually.

Dog Shen: [Happy New Year.]

[Transfer of $8,888.]

Nan Zhe was stunned.

When he regained his senses, his hand trembled as if he had seen a virus. He threw the phone away. “Damn it.”

F*ck. Why did Shen Yanqing send him a red packet just when he was gossiping about him?

Did Shen Yanqing put a bug on his phone?

Thinking of how he had called himself Shen Yanqing’s “brother-in-law” just now, Nan Zhe closed his eyes. He was so regretful that he wished he could dig a hole on the spot and bury himself alive.

He was so angry that he reached out to slap his mouth. He did not forget to mutter,

“Touch wood… You can’t take a kid’s words seriously. Pui pui pui!”

What kind of bad luck is this?

“…” Nan Ge sat at the side and watched him chant an incantation for a while before putting his palms together and kowtowing.

She did not know what he was saying. Listening carefully, it seemed to be something like “I was just saying it casually” or “don’t take it seriously.”

She scratched her head. “Is your rabies acting up?”

Why was he being so strange?

As she spoke, she craned her neck to look at his phone on the table.

The phone screen was still lit. As it was a little far away, she could not see the words on it at first glance, but the transfer page was still very conspicuous.

“Who gave you a New Year’s red packet?”

Her grandparents did not know how to use WeChat. Her parents, uncles, and aunts gave them cash red packets directly. They had given them before dinner.

Among his peers and friends, Nan Zhe was the boss.

Usually, he was the one who gave out red packets during the New Year.

This was the first time she had seen someone send a red packet to Nan Zhe. “Oh. Is it from some guy or elder you met outside?”

“Pfft!” Nan Zhe’s expression did not look good after being demoted for no reason. He glared angrily and reached out to grab the phone. “Stay away from me!”

“I’m just taking a look.” Nan Ge leaned forward unwillingly, wanting to find out. “How much did you get?”

Nan Zhe howled. “If you come any closer, I’ll bite you!”

Nan Ge was speechless. Alright. He was indeed a dog.

——

On the morning of the fourth day of the New Year.

Nan Ge opened her eyes in a daze.

Outside, Nan Zhe was knocking on the door persistently. “Pig, get up and eat.”

As soon as he finished speaking, more knocking could be heard at the door. Nan Ge pulled the blanket over her head in frustration and said in a muffled voice, “Got it.”

...

“Hurry up. Even if you eat shit, it tastes better warm.”

Nan Ge was speechless. Thank you. She instantly lost her appetite.

After washing up briefly, Nan Ge went downstairs listlessly.

They had just returned from Old Master Nan’s place last night.

In the end, when she arrived home, she had already taken a shower and was ready to sleep.

Unexpectedly, Nan Zhe called his friend over to play cards. Because he happened to be short of one player, he pulled her over to make up the numbers and use her as a tool.

She did not know how to play to begin with and wanted to sleep.

However, Nan Zhe said that it was fine and claimed it was easy to learn.

Then, he threw her $20,000 as starting capital to place bets.

In the end, not only was there not a single cent left, but her New Year’s red packets were also inexplicably missing $30,000.

——

...

In the dining room.

“Morning.”

Nan Ge yawned and sat down in her seat.

“What time did you sleep last night?”

Seeing that she was listless, Mrs. Nan felt sorry for her.

“Huh?” Because she was still half-asleep, Nan Ge’s brain had not fully turned on.

After a while, she replied, “Around four in the morning.”

“Oh my. Do you want to die?” Mrs. Nan was so angry that she kicked Nan Zhe, who was eating his food. “Look at you. How can you ask your sister to play cards!”

“You don’t look like a brother at all!”

“It’s just for entertainment during the New Year. What else can I do if I don’t ask her to play cards? Do you expect us to stay up all night doing assessments?”

Mrs. Nan, “…”

“And look at me. I only went to bed after five. I’m still refreshed and don’t even have dark circles under my eyes.”

“In the end, Nan Ge is still too weak. She’s only in her early twenties. She can’t even stay up all night. What will happen in the future?”

Nan Ge gritted her teeth and kicked him too.

Mrs. Nan was tired and tried her best to persuade him. “Make trouble if you want to, Nan Zhe. You only know how to drink and play cards now. You don’t even do anything serious. If you have the time to waste, you should find me a daughter-in-law!”

“Your childhood friend is a year younger than you. Now, he’s about to give birth to his second child.”

“Look at you again. You’re all alone. In two years, no one will want you anymore.”

“When the time comes, find a family to marry into. I’ll give you a hundred thousand at most for your dowry.”

Nan Zhe was speechless.

“That’s not what you said the other day.” He was unconvinced. “When you mentioned Shen Yanqing previously, didn’t you say that he was focused on his career and that it was good for him to get married later and have children?”

“Why can’t I do the same?”

“Then can you compare to him?” Mr. Nan could not help but interrupt. “Little Shen is young and promising. He’s such a serious young man.”

He was so suitable to be a son-in-law.

Looking at Nan Zhe, he had entered the family’s company to learn the ropes as soon as he graduated. The order came directly from Old Master Nan.

Of course, he did not rely on himself, so it was not worth mentioning.

However, he also had some side jobs, but they were indeed not too serious.

For example, he owned a luxury membership-only clubhouse, club, bar, and entertainment management company. Also, he recently opened a restaurant.

These were all opened in partnership with his old friends. Although they earned money, they were not presentable in the eyes of the elders.

Naturally, he could not compare to Shen Yanqing.

Hearing this, Nan Zhe snorted and doubted his life. “Then do you mean that I’m not serious?”

Hearing this, the three of them looked at him in unison. Their straightforward gazes had already explained everything.

“…”
