Chapter 310: Chapter 310 Meeting He Nan 1

Shen Mianmian’s mind whirred rapidly, and suddenly, with a blink, she met He Nan’s gaze with a face full of unfamiliarity, then apologized sternly.

"I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose."

Having said that, she walked away.

Even without a mirror, she knew what she looked like right now: disheveled and filthy. Big Brother He might even think he had mistaken her for someone else.

He Nan’s expression darkened. This little girl, pretending she doesn’t recognize him.

Just as she was about to brush past him, he grabbed her arm and, with a side glance, noticed for the first time that there was a little blood under her ear, as if it were a scratch.

The hair in front had covered it, so he hadn’t seen it before.

That scratch might seem insignificant on him, but on her, he found it particularly glaring.

"Did you get into a fight?"

His brow furrowed, and his voice grew colder. Shen Mianmian shivered at the sound, her fighting spirit from her scuffle with Wang Erfeng gone, and she nodded somewhat timidly.

"Yeah."

Ruan Yiyang glanced at Shen Mianmian, then at He Nan, with a look of surprise, "Do you two know each other?"

He had thought this young girl was a beggar.

Cough cough... Don’t blame him for thinking that, but this young girl’s clothes were ill-fitting and seemed a bit short, and her hair was a mess, too similar to a beggar’s.

He never expected that she was someone He Nan knew, and now he was full of curiosity. How did He Nan come to know such a person?

"Yeah."

"We don’t."

He Nan and Shen Mianmian spoke at the same time.

Shen Mianmian: "..."

She wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

"..." Ruan Yiyang grew even more curious and looked at the two with interest, "Do you know each other or not?"

He Nan remained silent at the moment, his gaze falling on Shen Mianmian, as if he was also waiting for her answer.

Shen Mianmian: "..."

Feeling the pressure of their gazes, she steeled herself and nodded, "We know each other."

After speaking, she quickly added, "Not very well."

At those words, He Nan’s expression turned even darker.

Not very well?

Shen Mianmian: "..."

It wasn’t her fault—how much better it would have been had she pretended not to recognize him?

Now it had come to this, surely Big Brother He must feel embarrassed!

If only she hadn’t taken the long way around; then, she wouldn’t have bumped into him.

Seeing her lowering her head, like a child who had done something wrong and appearing somewhat at a loss, He Nan’s heart softened, and his expression eased.

"Who did you fight with? Where’s Lu Siyuan?"

"Ah?"

Shen Mianmian looked up at him blankly. She had thought he would resent her for embarassing him, but instead, he was concerned about who she had fought with.

She was being too suspicious.

Not wanting to trouble He Nan in front of his friend, Shen Mianmian’s mind raced to find a plausible excuse, "I encountered a lunatic at the market, and we started fighting over a disagreement."

In truth, to compare Wang Erfeng to a lunatic, Shen Mianmian felt it was an insult to lunatics.

"Ha ha..."

Ruan Yiyang couldn’t help but laugh, and with a glance from He Nan, he immediately straightened up, "Sorry, my laugh is easily triggered, I couldn’t help it, my bad."

Shen Mianmian glanced at He Nan awkwardly—how much better it would have been had she pretended not to recognize him earlier.

But He Nan was nonchalant, "Go wait for me in the car, I’ll be there in a moment."

"All right." Ruan Yiyang nodded, gave Shen Mianmian a meaningful glance, and said teasingly, "I’m not in a hurry, you can come over after you’ve dealt with your matters."
