Chapter 16: Speechless Staring at the Sky
Although it was a chopped pepper fish head, it was still a car, and she hadn't prepared a red envelope yet.
Xiao Nanxing kept it a secret. After buying groceries, he took her to Xi'an Garden, Room 809, 8th Floor, Building 18. When the door opened, Li Xiaoxiao was stunned.
Xiao Nanxing went in to put his things away and waited for her to come back to her senses.
"Ahhh, Xiao Nanxing, tell me honestly, is there a man supporting you?"
Xiao Nanxing turned around and said, "No, what's wrong with your train of thought? Can't it be my newly rented house?"
If she can’t afford to buy it, can she rent it?
Li Xiaoxiao closed the door and went into the house. "With your stingy personality, would you be willing to rent such a nice house? I've asked around here, the rent is 4,000 yuan a month, and it's farther from the hospital than Ande Community."
Xiao Nanxing had nothing to say. Everything she said was right. She was indeed her best friend and knew her very well.
No wonder she had such a wild imagination and suspected that she had a boyfriend.
Finally, she had to take out the house purchase contract and the lottery photo and slap it in front of her, “Look, your dad is rich now.”
Li Xiaoxiao was stunned, and Xiao Nanxing was very proud.
Then it was Li Xiaoxiao's turn to scream. Xiao Nanxing waved his hand like a lord, "My beloved, please help me clean up the house. We won't go home until we're drunk tonight. When I'm happy, I'll give you a gift."
“Yeah.”
The two hugged each other and laughed. Li Xiaoxiao was really happy for her, "Woo woo, good sister, I will hug your thigh from now on."
"Okay, I'll hold you."
This night, Xiao Nanxing drank alcohol for the first time. They had to go to work the next day, so they didn't dare to get really drunk, but being slightly tipsy was fine.
As a result, they were so excited that they couldn't sleep, so they got up and continued to clean the house. They put so many things in place in one night, and finally even cleaned the entire house.
Perhaps it was because of excessive joy that sorrow came to him. The next day, as soon as he arrived at the office, Mr. Tang called him. Now even Zhao Zhiliang automatically stopped going over there. When Mr. Tang became difficult to deal with, no one could stand up to him.
Xiao Nanxing stood in the ward holding the medical records. Tang Weiguo sat on the bed, scanning her from head to toe. Xiao Nanxing's scalp tingled. "Mr. Tang, what's wrong with you? How about I call Director Liao?"
Tang Weiguo snorted, rolled his eyes, and gave her a big surprise, "Are you having a secret relationship with Pei Zhengping?"
Xiao Nanxing's hair exploded. "How is this possible?! Who told you this nonsense, Mr. Tang?"
How could he be so well-informed when he was in the hospital? And even know about the secret relationship?
Fortunately, she didn't, so she answered with confidence. This was simply the biggest rumor of the century. She was in the hospital. Could it be that rumors were already flying around outside?
Tang Weiguo was unhappy. "Isn't my grandson excellent? What's with that expression?"
Xiao Nanxing straightened his expression, "Your grandson is the sun in the sky. Mortals like us dare not even dream of him. Please rest assured that he and I have absolutely no other relationship between men and women, and there will never be one in the future!"
Unexpectedly, her words made him rebel, "Do you dislike my old grandson?"
Xiao Nanxing shook his head. How could he dare to do that, even though he was indeed a bit old.
"I'm glad you don't dislike him. Don't worry, although he is much older than you, he will definitely love you. You can't dislike him. I approve of you as my granddaughter-in-law, so you can't break up with him."
Xiao Nanxing couldn't keep up with his changes. He thought he wanted to break up the couple and would not accept an ordinary woman as his grandson's wife. He didn't expect that he would change his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. Now he was smiling like Maitreya Buddha.
No, what was she thinking? This had nothing to do with her. "Mr. Tang, you really misunderstood. I swear, we are not boyfriend and girlfriend. You can go ask Secretary Pei!"
Please, don't make things difficult for her.
Tang Weiguo laughed heartily, "I know you're shy. Are you thinking his family will oppose you? Don't worry, as long as she's not some messed-up woman, the Pei family is very open-minded. He's finally found a girl at his age, and we're really looking forward to it. We're just afraid he'll be single again."
The old man also tried his best and started to slander his grandson.
Xiao Nanxing looked up at the sky speechlessly, wanting to cry but without tears. How could this not be explained?
When she dragged her heavy feet back to the office and faced several pairs of eyes that looked either shocked, amazed, or "so that's it," she really wanted to get angry. This was not right. Shouldn't everyone despise her or not believe her?
How could they think that he and Pei Zhengping could be in a relationship?
She herself found it unbelievable.
No, where did this rumor come from? Is she out of touch with the world?
Not long after, Li Xiaoxiao sent her a voice message, which read, "Ahhh, Xiao Nanxing, hello, you're dating and finding a man, but you hid it from me?!!"
"Are you worthy of our relationship? You scumbag!"
"Ahhh, it's actually him?! Oh my god, Xiao Nanxing, you've made it big. I agree to this marriage. Hehe, go back tonight and confess to me the history of your relationship!"
Xiao Nanxing felt hopeless and felt that the world had changed beyond all recognition overnight. She could imagine that the various departments in the hospital were talking about this matter in their internal groups.
She became famous, but not in the way she wanted.
She felt aggrieved, and she turned back to Fei Dabai to clarify, "I'm single now, really, this is just a rumor."
Fei Dabai chuckled, "Okay, okay, you're single, we understand. After all, it's him, so we can't publicize it. We won't go out and say anything."
The others nodded in unison, all with auntie smiles on their faces.
Xiao Nanxing: ...
Just as she was feeling powerless and angry, Secretary Li called. Her scalp went numb at the sight of this. She could only walk out of the office and hide in the corner to answer the phone. "Hello?"
"It's me."
Unexpectedly, it was Pei Zhengping. When she heard his voice, she gritted her teeth, but she couldn't get angry. She desperately told herself that he was a big shot and she couldn't offend him. She had to endure it. "Secretary Pei, what's the matter?"
"They are disrupting my progress. I will deal with the rumors. I'm sorry for causing you trouble. I want to ask for your opinion. No matter how I say this, it will ultimately hurt your reputation. What do you want to do?"
This is how the world is. Once Pei Zhengping clarifies the matter, outsiders will not say anything about Pei Zhengping. They will only say that Xiao Nanxing may have wanted to climb up the social ladder but failed, and was slapped in the face and rejected by Pei Zhengping.
But no one would listen to her clarification. Even if Pei Zhengping married someone else and had children, they would not think that they had nothing to do with each other. They would only think that she was abandoned, and the bad words about her would be even more unpleasant.
Whether it's good or bad, the woman is the biggest victim in the end. Who told them that their family backgrounds are so different?
Xiao Nanxing was very irritated, "We'll talk about it in detail when we meet tonight."
It was the damn Luo family again. She was sure that this was a dirty trick from the Luo family. They had destroyed her in the same way back then. She had already experienced the power of gossip.
Arriving at Chang'an Garden in the evening, Xiao Nanxing gave himself a few seconds to breathe before walking into the living room. Pei Zhengping had changed into home clothes and was sitting on the sofa looking at electronic documents.
He raised his eyes and suddenly smiled, "What's with that expression? Are you angry about being associated with me?"
