Drunk on Marriage, Billionaire's Overindulgent Love-Chapter 135 - 120.4

A scene suddenly flashed through her mind, just before last night’s chaos.

"Nan Wan, let’s give it a try."

So, starting a relationship... from today?

Nan Wan lowered her head, holding a cup of milk, sipping absentmindedly.

She just felt a little strange in her heart, yet didn’t realize she wasn’t opposed to it.

When the car stopped at the hospital entrance, Nan Wan looked down to unbuckle her seatbelt.

A deep voice sounded in her ear, "Are you working overtime today?"

Besides the surgery in the afternoon, Nan Wan had no other plans today, "I shouldn’t be."

"I’ll come to pick you up."

A place like a hospital has a huge crowd on weekdays, and even though Qing City is full of luxury cars, not everyone can have a license plate like [8888].

He just parked the car here, without showing himself, it could still attract countless gazes.

She didn’t dislike it, but she couldn’t say she liked it either.

But thinking about it, since he was willing to pick her up and drop her off, she saw no reason to be pretentious, so she nodded, "Oh."

As she pushed open the car door and put one foot on the ground, her arm was grabbed.

Confused, she turned her head, "Is there something else?"

Did he want a goodbye kiss or something?

Mu Jin Huan looked at her, with deep meaning in his eyes that wasn’t hard to understand, "Have you thought about when to see Grandma?"

He wasn’t in a hurry about the house, but apart from Nan Ze, the only person in the Nan Family she cared about was the old lady who kept away from worldly affairs.

Hearing this, Nan Wan was a little shocked. Last night, she had casually mentioned it, but she didn’t expect him to take it seriously.

It’s not that she wasn’t willing, but... Grandma hoped she would marry someone else.

She pressed her lips together, "Then when are you free?"

Mu Jin Huan saw her emotions and said calmly, "Time can always be squeezed out, if I want to, I can schedule work to midnight, including weekends, for the next few months."

Nwan Wan understood and knew it wasn’t an exaggeration.

"Then let’s do it the day after tomorrow."

Nan Wan arrived at the office, changed into her white coat, and as usual, went to do her rounds.

Qin Zhenzhen was a bit off today, not only did she talk less, she also seemed listless, and couldn’t answer any of Nan Wan’s questions.

This was in stark contrast to her usual fluency in responding as an intern.

After finishing, Nan Wan called her over and noticed the pale complexion, "Interns are humans too, if you’re not feeling well, take a day off."

Qin Zhenzhen held her left hand on her lower abdomen and used her right hand to hold the file rack to cover it, looking feeble, "Menstrual cramps, it will be fine if I endure it."

She was the most inconspicuous one among the interns who graduated from prestigious schools. Without background or family, she must work harder to seize one of the only two spots available.

If she asked for leave over a minor illness, wouldn’t all her previous efforts be in vain?

Upon hearing this, Nan Wan suddenly realized her own menstrual period was also in these few days, though it was irregular, it was just a week’s early or late at most.

If she stayed at the North Shore Villa those days, Aunt Zhou and Zhao Ying would certainly notice, which would essentially mean directly telling Madam Mu she was faking a pregnancy to get married, and wasn’t actually pregnant.

Even though they were already registered, if the iron-willed Madam Mu in the business world found out, the trouble wouldn’t be small.

Avoidable trouble is best avoided entirely.

She collected her thoughts and said to Qin Zhenzhen in front of her, "Rest in my office. Work when you’re not in pain."

Qin Zhenzhen wasn’t foolish, she naturally understood Nan Wan’s intention.

In the office, nobody would dump those trivial errands on her, nor would they think she was slacking off.

Qin Zhenzhen leaned closer to Nan Wan’s side, clung to her arm, and forced a smile, "Doctor Nan, you’re so kind."

Nan Wan awkwardly pulled her arm back, her delicate face pretending to be indifferent, "Stop smiling, it’s incredibly ugly."

Returning to her office floor, Nan Wan saw from afar a person sitting on the long bench in the corridor.

She took off the stethoscope hanging around her neck and handed it to Qin Zhenzhen, "I have something to do, you go first."

Qin Zhenzhen, with her stomach discomfort, always walked with her head down, took it inattentively, and softly responded, "Okay."

Only after she saw Qin Zhenzhen enter the office did Nan Wan move her somewhat heavy steps toward the bench.

"...Uncle, are you here to see me?"
