I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

"Wei... Wei Yue?"

Nan Shu narrowed her almond-shaped eyes, her face almost touching Wei Yue's before she recognized him.

Wei Yue looked at the girl so close to him, his breath hitched, and his eyes were filled with intense emotions that he could hardly contain.

He forced himself to take a step back, raised his hand, and placed it on Nan Shu's forehead.

The man's palm was burning hot, which brought Nan Shu to her senses for a moment, but the intoxication quickly overwhelmed her, and she stared blankly at Wei Yue.

"What are you doing?"

"Shushu, you're drunk."

He took her hand, then slowly gripped her wrist and led her toward the villa.

Nan Shu frowned.

She instinctively retorted, "I'm not drunk." She had only drunk two very low-alcohol cocktails, both made with low-alcohol fruit wines.

Even with Gao's father and the others around, Nan Shu was still very careful in the bar environment.

"Hmm...you're not drunk, I am."

Wei Yue's voice was somewhat coaxing, soft and gentle, like a feather brushing against Nan Shu's ear, tickling her. Nan Shu subconsciously raised her hand to scratch it.

"You're drunk? You've been drinking too?"

Nan Shu's mind was foggy right now, making it difficult for her to think about anything deeper. Hearing Wei Yue say that, she subconsciously asked a question.

Wei Yue continued walking: "No."

How can you get drunk if you haven't drunk any alcohol?
Nan Shu was puzzled.

She followed in Wei Yue's footsteps.

Seeing this, Liu Ming reached out to stop them, but put his hand down halfway through. How could he stop them?
They were protecting Nan Shu's safety, and Nan Shu's life is not in danger now.

Most importantly, if Wei Yue doesn't take care of Nan Shu, they won't be able to help take care of the drunk Nan Shu!

After thinking for a moment, Liu Ming drove slowly behind the two of them and reported the current situation to Nan Yannian.

The two stopped at the door. Nan Shu felt a little more awake after being exposed to the night breeze, and tilted her head to look at the man beside her.

"Wei Yue?"

Wei Yue smiled and said, "Mm."

Nan Shu looked at the gate, then at Wei Yue. At this time, it wasn't really appropriate for a lone man and woman to be in a private space.

Besides, it's not like I'm on a business trip or anything.

Nan Shu had previously treated Wei Yue as a friend and taken him in, but now that she knew he liked her, it seemed inappropriate for them to stay together at this time.

Especially since she hasn't figured it out yet...

Nan Shu put down her fingerprints, put them behind her back, and looked at Wei Yue.

"Wei Yue, what do you need me for so late?"

Wei Yue met the girl's eyes and pursed his lips.

He knew that now was not the time to confuse friendship with love, as he had done before.

If Nan Shu's failure to answer the video call two days ago only aroused Wei Yue's suspicion, now that he saw the girl, he was finally certain that his disguise... had been discovered after all.

The tactic of getting close by feigning helplessness is no longer effective.

Then...

"The final competition is just around the corner, and I'll probably be in closed training for a while afterward..."

Rui Feng's eyes were fixed on Nan Shu.

This time, he couldn't hold back; his eyes were brimming with intense emotions that could almost drown a person.

Nan Shu was momentarily dazed, turning her head away, not daring to look Wei Yue in the eye.

"Shushu, I miss you so much, I think about you every day."

"I never knew what it felt like to like someone until I accidentally stumbled upon Shushu's live stream."

Wei Yue enjoys watching Nan Shu roast people on camera and interact with the audience. Her eyes always light up when someone gives her a gift.

At first, he only used it as a pastime, a form of entertainment, and a place to rest after a busy day.

But he couldn't take his eyes off it anymore, no matter when it started.

She wanted to get closer, even closer, she wanted those eyes to be fixed solely on him. Wei Yue knew then that he was doomed.

He will probably never meet someone he likes like this again in his life.

When I see her, I am overjoyed; when I can't see her, it seems like every cell in my body is missing her.

Listen to Wei Yue's heartfelt confession.

Nan Shu stared at him blankly with her almond-shaped eyes.

"But I also know that Shushu is so wonderful, it's perfectly normal that many people like her."

Wei Yue raised his hand and gently tidied the stray hairs by her ear, gazing at her tenderly with his eyes.

"Shushu, don't be afraid or embarrassed. They, including me, are good to you. Just accept it. Our Shushu deserves the best in the world. It is our honor to like you, pursue you, and be allowed to be good to you by you."

In Nan Shu's mind, Wei Yue had always been a cute, puppy-like man who was so charming that it was irresistible. This was the first time Nan Shu had ever experienced Wei Yue's domineering and arrogant nature as a man.

Nan Shu was almost misled by his fallacies.

"If I don't refuse, don't take responsibility, and don't deny... wouldn't I become a 'bad girl'?"

She was drunk, not stupid.

Wei Yue chuckled.

"So what? I'm willing to be treated like a jerk by you."

Nan Shu: ...

"cough!"

Just as Nan Shu was wondering what to say, a soft cough sounded.

Nan Shu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The two looked toward the source of the sound.

Before anyone knew it, Wei Jingxing appeared at the door, wearing a coat, and opened the door.

His gaze passed over Wei Yue and went straight to Nan Shu.

"Why are you back so late? Were you drunk? Are you feeling unwell?"

His tone was gentle, like a husband who had been waiting all night for his wife to come home.

Nan Shu had now fully regained her senses. For the first time, after learning the other person's feelings, she looked at the two of them, glanced at Wei Jingxing, and then immediately lowered her head.

"I'm not drunk, and I don't feel unwell."

She felt that she could carve out a magic castle right now.

"Hmm... It's getting late, Xiaoshu should go back and rest."

Kui Jingxing spoke up.

Nan Shu nodded and looked at Wei Yue. When Wei Yue saw Wei Jingxing, he subconsciously glanced in Liu Ming's direction and immediately understood the details.

Nan Yannian is far away in the capital, Nan Sinian has just left Hangzhou, and Nan Punian is not nearby; distant water cannot quench a nearby fire.

Nan Yannian had no choice but to turn to his former business partners for help.

Wei Yue turned his head and met Nan Shu's eyes, his phoenix eyes curving upwards.

"Mr. Wei is right. It's getting late. Shushu, you should go back and rest. Don't stay up late."

Nan Shu gave a soft "Mmm".

Of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, running away is the best. Even under normal circumstances, when she is clear-headed, she might not be able to handle it, let alone now that she is indeed a bit drunk.

After saying goodnight to the two of them, he unlocked and closed the door with his fingerprint, his movements fluid and effortless.

The night wind is cold.

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the hostility and apprehension in each other's eyes. Wei Yue smiled, a smile that could even be described as obedient.

Without saying a word, he turned and left.

As Wei Yue's retreating figure was being watched, Wei Jingxing's brows furrowed slowly.

Liu Ming, who watched the whole thing from inside the car, couldn't help but click his tongue inwardly.

Wow, this is so exciting! It's a hundred times more thrilling than a soap opera at 8 PM.

The key is being there in person, witnessing the whole thing – it was definitely worth it to be a beast of burden! (End of Chapter)
