Upon hearing this, Yuan Heng's ears turned red, much to his dismay.
Ning Lang's eyes darted between the two of them, and she chuckled softly.
"I never expected Dean Shan to like overly sweet milk tea—it's quite a surprise!"
Dan Jueyi raised her beautiful face slightly and said in a low voice, "I'm not a picky eater, I eat everything. But coffee is too stimulating, so I don't usually drink it."
Yuan Heng was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but roll his eyes inwardly.
Lies! Back then, when she found his bank card, he bought her coffee as a thank you, and she drank five cups of coffee in a row and wouldn't budge!
Unexpectedly, Shan Jueyi added casually, "Once, someone invited me for coffee. I couldn't refuse their hospitality and didn't want to leave, so I drank five cups of coffee in one go. That was the most coffee I've ever drunk in my life."
Yuan Heng's handsome face flushed red and then turned pale, a truly fascinating sight.
"I...I'll excuse myself for a moment."
Then, he hurried to the restroom, his tall and thin figure looking quite disheveled.
Ning Lang couldn't help but laugh. "I guessed who you meant by 'someone' earlier. Keep it up! Remember to bring out the best!"
Shan Jueyi shook his head. "You saw it too, he's just that cowardly."
“But you’re not a coward,” Ning Lang gently reminded him. “Someone has to take the initiative, right?”
She smiled slightly and said nothing more.
Ning Lang took another sip of tea and said, "I'm leaving now. Tell Aheng about it later."
Shan Jueyi nodded and gave her a grateful look. "Take care."
Ning Lang stood up, immediately felt unwell, closed her eyes, and swayed involuntarily.
Dan Jueyi frowned and hurriedly stood up to support her arm.
"Mr. Ning, what's wrong?"
Ning Lang looked rather unwell and forced an awkward smile.
"...It's nothing, just a little low blood sugar."
Dan Jueyi was half-believing and half-doubting, and helped her sit down carefully.
"May I take your pulse? You don't look well."
Ning Lang calmly withdrew her hand and smiled, "No need, it's just a minor ailment, thank you."
After speaking, she hurried away.
Shan Jueyi looked at the empty cup in front of her and the untouched dessert on the table, her eyebrows furrowing in suspicion.
After a long while, the cowardly turtle finally crawled back at a snail's pace.
"...Senior Sister Shan, where's A-Lang?"
Shan Jueyi said calmly, "She didn't look well, so she left first."
Yuan Heng, worried about running out of things to say, quickly replied, "She said she has a cold and is feeling a bit chilly, but it shouldn't be serious!"
"Does she have low blood sugar?" Shan Jueyi asked seriously.
Yuan Heng immediately shook his head: "No way, I've never heard her mention it. Ah Lang has always been very healthy and knows how to control her eating, unlike me..."
Dan Jueyi frowned slightly.
Sure enough, Boss Ning was lying to her.
How could a great expert who is well-versed in pharmacology and knows how to make medicinal cuisine so perfectly allow himself to suffer from low blood sugar to the point of dizziness as soon as he stands up!
Yuan Heng chuckled awkwardly, trying to cover his tracks: "She just came out of your hospital, saying she was going to visit someone in the hospital. I... I happened to be passing by... so I gave her a ride here to quench her thirst."
Dan Jueyi nodded and said gently, "The milk tea is getting cold. Drink it while it's hot."
"Oh...okay!" Yuan Hengjun's face flushed slightly as he picked up the glass and drank.
Dan Jueyi's eyes flickered slightly, and he made a decision in his heart.
Whenever a member of the Ning family has a headache or other discomfort, it's always the older sister who takes care of it.
Why did Ning Lang come here instead?
I need to go back and find out which department Ning Lang failed. Judging from her mysterious and evasive manner, something seems to have happened.
Hopefully it's not a bad thing...
