Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Peacock

Leng Yan...

The paper was filled with his name...

She tried so hard to control herself not to think about it, thinking she was taking notes for the meeting, but she was wrong.

As she wrote, it all became his name. Printed on the paper over and over, engraved in her heart.

"Nuannuan?" Tan Qing looked at the tears in her eyes, somewhat at a loss: "What’s wrong, are you angry? You’re not usually like this."

When she’s with him, they often joke and play around without care. She’s the type who can joke around, not someone like Lin Meimei who cries at the drop of a hat.

But since last night, she seemed a bit off.

Wen Nuan realized her gaffe, gently wiped her tears with the back of her hand and forced a smile: "I’m fine, Tan Qing, I’m going back to the office. My mentor is already waiting for me there."

It’s not that she’s angry with Tan Qing, she’s just mad at herself.

Mad at herself for not keeping her heart in check and still thinking about her.

"Really okay?" Tan Qing blocked her way, his seductive phoenix eyes full of doubt and concern: "Why are you crying if nothing’s wrong? Tell me, did something happen at home? I’ll help you."

Wen Nuan lifted her gaze and looked into his eyes, a bit too afraid to make eye contact: "I wasn’t crying, it’s just that my eyes haven’t been great these past few days, and they occasionally tear from pain. Maybe I’ve been playing games too much at night."

If it were something else, she’d be happy to ask Tan Qing for help, but matters of the heart are extraordinary. Who can really help whom?

She nearly fled from the conference room without lingering for even a moment. Tan Qing’s gaze always felt too intense, seemingly beyond the feelings of friends.

This feeling left her very uneasy...

She sensed something was off since she got drunk last night, leaving her faintly afraid.

She knows very well that she and Tan Qing can only be friends. Whether or not she divorces Leng Yan, they would only be friends.

"Mentor, let’s go." As soon as work was over, Wen Nuan immediately packed up her things and went to hook her arm around Lin Xue’s.

Lin Xue gave a gentle smile: "Let’s set off!"

"Where are the two beauties going?" Outside the MT building, Tan Qing was wearing a flamboyant short-sleeved shirt with a pair of white casual pants, sporting oversized sunglasses, and his hair styled wildly, leaning lazily against his red sports car.

Seeing him deliberately play the rascal, Wen Nuan and Lin Xue couldn’t help but giggle: "Oh, did a peacock just escape from the zoo?"

"As expected of master and apprentice, you even speak alike." Tan Qing, relying on his thick skin, wasn’t embarrassed at all by their teasing. He took out a small bottle and handed it to Wen Nuan: "Put a few drops in before you sleep, it works wonders."

"What’s this?"

Wen Nuan took it with surprise: "Eye drops?" She couldn’t help but blush, she was just making an excuse and didn’t expect Tan Qing to take it seriously.

"Thank you, Tan Qing. My mentor and I are going to eat, we’ll be off now."

She couldn’t quite describe the feeling inside, grateful, yet also scared. Wen Nuan held Lin Xue’s hand and quickly walked towards the parking space.

"Hey, I’ve got something..." Seeing her rushing away, Tan Qing frowned in exasperation.

He’s already trying to be a considerate man, but Wen Nuan doesn’t react at all. Could she really not feel his sincere heart?

Frustrated!

He got into his sports car and hit the steering wheel with frustration.

"Hey handsome, why the big temper?"

Tong Xi came to look for Wen Nuan, just getting out of a taxi when she spotted the eye-catching figure. Her eyes brightened as she stepped forward and patted the steering wheel of Tan Qing’s convertible with a playful smile, asking.
