Sweet, Although Short Chapter 16

Translated by Elestrea

All his life, Ning Can was only afraid of two people.

One was his father, the other was Xia Yan.

His father was too powerful, Ning Can being afraid of him was normal.

Ning Can had bullied Xia Yan for more than ten years, and logically he was the one Ning Can should be the least afraid of in his life. But, on his high school graduation, he was so drunk he became muddle-headed and regarded Xia Yan as a woman. Every day, he tried to forget what happened, but every day, he never succeeded. Because on that particular day, his own b.u.t.t was burst open, it truly couldn't be forgotten!

Since then, he had been hiding from Xia Yan. When the university started, he immediately went abroad. Wherever Xia Yan was, he would rather not be!

After hiding like this for four years, his father gave him a blow right after he returned home: "I told your Uncle Xia that you will go to the Xia Company for an interns.h.i.+p next week to learn properly from Xia Yan!”

Ning Can was dumbfounded!

Follow and learn from Xia Yan?

What to learn? Learn how he f.u.c.ks me?

Do you think I, Ning Can, have no shame?!

Ning Can resisted intensely, he resolutely didn't want to intern at the Xia Company.

His father took off his shoes to spank him, Ning Can tried hard to escape and ran to find his mother.

His mother kindly patted his head and said: "Go, listen to your father this time."

Knowing that even his own mother didn't want to help him, Ning Can immediately felt wronged, turning into a 22-year-old puppy!

His father ordered: "Tidy up and go to a party with me tonight."

Ning Can didn't want to go. But since his father gave him a look filled with daggers, Ning Can could only murmur: "Go, go, go, go, I can't not go at all."

Ning Can put on airs and followed his father to the party. As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Xia Yan, who put on more airs than he was.

He was bewildered.

During their kindergarten phase, Xia Yan was more delicate than a little girl. On their primary school days, he was more well-behaved than a little girl. And when they were at the middle school, he was more beautiful than a little girl. How could he have grown into this 'refined and cultured sc.u.m' of more than 1.9 meters now!

Just because he graduated from high school?

Thinking about it, Ning Can's stomach (really not his a.s.s) ached.

Looking from a distance, he saw that there was a s.e.xy woman around Xia Yan. He… What a pain in the stomach!

Fair skin, red lips, great curves, slender waist, and long legs…

Each of them stabbed at Ning Can's heart.

Why?!

Why did Xia Yan have such extremely beautiful woman by his side, yet he left behind such a psychological shadow on him back then. He really couldn't stand it.

He couldn't think about it. If he did, he would feel like murdering somebody!

Ning Can's father looked at him and asked: "What's the matter?"

Ning Can: "I'm going to the toilet."

Ning Can didn't want to see a couple engaging in a love affair, so he swiftly ran away.

Instead of going to the toilet, he went to the balcony and lit a cigarette.

A man who has no woman and only has cigarettes… Ning Can's side face looked distressed.

This distressed look was so handsome that it attracted a beautiful woman.

The beauty winked at him.

Although Ning Can's precious 'sword' was rusty, his heart wasn't dull at all. He smiled back at her.

The beauty had a thin waist, and with a gla.s.s of wine in her hand, she approached him. Ning Can's injured heart was soothed in an instant.

The beautiful woman's legs were long, slender, and fair, and Ning Can's hands became itchy.

The atmosphere was hot, and the two were getting closer and closer. Ning Can suddenly looked up, and when he did, he saw a man standing under the light's shadow.

Wearing a sleek high-end suit, the man had slender, straight, long legs. He put one hand in his pocket, while the other was holding a red wine gla.s.s. Under the shadow of the crystal lamp, his deep facial features were like the ocean during winter, beautiful but hazy.

It's Xia Yan!

He didn't want to lose the momentum, so Ning Can raised his voice: "President Xia, long time no see.” Having said that, he hooked his lips, looking like a heartless small tiger who bared his fangs, it was truly provoking.

Xia Yan didn't smile, but instead politely said: "Long time no see."

When the beauty heard 'President Xia', she immediately turned around, and her heart felt as if it wanted to leap out all of a sudden.

Ning Can was so angry and quickly said to the beauty: "Add my WeChat and we'll talk later."

The beauty considered this for a while before concluding that this little handsome guy was more promising and hurriedly agreed with the idea.

They talked and laughed, and Xia Yan's looks became very dark and cold.

Ning Can was very satisfied: Envy? Jealous? This is 100% charming, of course you have no chance.

There were only Ning Can and Xia Yan after the beauty left, and Ning Can truly wasn't happy.

Because Xia Yan opened his mouth and asked: "You're going to the Xia Company?”

Ning can was about to say 'Go to h.e.l.l' but Xia Yan unexpectedly said first: "Don't go."

Is this what they called 'reverse psychology'? If you beg me to go, I won't go, but if you drive me away, there's no way!

Ning Can raised his eyebrow: "Why?"

Xia Yan stared at him for a while before saying, "I don't want to see you."

'Don't want to see'? He said he doesn't want to see me!

Although he was the one who had started it, he was the one whose b.u.t.t was burst open!

If Xia Yan hadn't agreed, how could they toss about in the car before going to the hotel to toss about again!

That night left a psychological shadow on him, okay?! He, Ning Can, was beaten by his father for around 18 years and had never cried like that before, okay?!

He's still super mad at Xia Yan and doesn't want to see him!

Ning Can exploded: "Is the Xia Company yours? Whether I'm going or not, is it for you to decide?"

Xia Yan's eyes were cold: "Ning Can, enough."

Ning Can was furious: "Get out of here, I can go wherever I want to go!”

After saying these words, Ning Can wanted to leave, but Xia Yan cut his path off, moved forward and forced Ning Can to lean on the balcony's railing.

He stared at Ning Can, there was fire inside his black eyes: "Why did you come back?"

Ning Can never thought that the person he used to bully when they were just kids would now be more than half a head taller than him!

Ning Can's heart was terrified, but he still bared his teeth and claws: "I want you to be responsible!"

Xia Yan stretched out his hand, his slender fingers were much stronger than they looked. He tightly squeezed Ning Can's shoulder and warned him: "Ning Can, stay away from me."

Ever since Ning Can was a kid, each time he fought with another, he could accept losing the fight, but never his pride. He pushed Xia Yan away and viciously said: “Who the f.u.c.k wants to be close to you!"

Saying so, three days later, Ning Can's exclusive custom made sports car stopped in front of the Xia Company's building.

Ning Can, wearing sungla.s.ses, was earthshakingly handsome.

Everyone in the Xia Company knew that the eldest young master of the Ning family was coming and secretly watched.

Ning Can held his head high and didn't spare a glance at anyone. When he entered the office building, he also didn't take off his sungla.s.ses.

Xiao Liu, who was in charge to receive Ning Can, knew his place and didn't dare to provoke him. He just brought Ning Can into the office and briefed Ning Can on his job.

Ning Can calmly said: "En."

Xiao Liu gloomily went away.

When there was n.o.body else in the room, Ning Can took off his sungla.s.ses, revealing a pair of panda eyes!

Even though his father had agreed not to hit him in the face, he unexpectedly punched him in the eye. His father really didn't want him to save his face la!

Isn't it just Xia Company's interns.h.i.+p? Fine, I'll go, I'll go… As if hitting people will suddenly turn one into a good person QAQ!

Ning Can felt wronged but didn't say anything anymore. When he thought of Xia Yan's scowling face, his stomach ached again.

He was angry at Old Ning and didn't eat last night. He went out early in the morning and didn't eat as well. At 10:30 AM, if his stomach didn't ache by now, he might as well be a ghost.

It's all Xia Yan's fault, that d.a.m.ned slag man!

Ning Can was clutching his stomach and groaning, but the door was suddenly opened.

He hurriedly put on his sungla.s.ses and saw the d.a.m.ned slag man as soon as he looked up.

Ning Can held his head high, didn't even yield even though his stomach was hurting so much: "Stay away from me. Xia Company isn't small enough that when you turn around you'll immediately see me!"

Xia Yan's face was expressionless as he approached and said in a low voice: "Take off your sungla.s.ses."

Ning Can was nervous: "Mind your own business… Oi… Xia Yan!"

Before he finished speaking, the sungla.s.ses were taken off lightly by the man's long hands.

The bruises on his eyes were particularly glaring on the white face, and Xia Yan stared at him for a long time.

Ning Can became angry: "What are you doing? I'll beat you up!"

Xia Yan said: "Shut up." He turned around and left.

He's gone… He left just like that, and… and he took off my sungla.s.ses, f.u.c.k!

Ning Can exploded and he sprang to his feet. But suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his stomach which made him cry.

Xia Yan, who was about to go out, stopped immediately and turned to see Ning Can bending down.

"You didn't have breakfast again?" Xia Yan came over in a few steps.

Ning Can couldn't stand upright, he leaned forward on the table and groaned. He didn't want to do this, but he couldn't hold on any longer.

Who knew Xia Yan would actually princess-carry him.

Ning Can was so scared his stomach stopped hurting: "You… what are you doing?"

Xia Yan carried him to the lounge inside.

Ning Can was terrified. "Don't take advantage of others' misfortune." Who the h.e.l.l would've thought that the weak chicken from back then would grow into such a 'bear'!

Xia Yan stared at him before unb.u.t.toning his coat without saying a word.

All Ning Can could think about was: It's over, I'm finished, my b.u.t.t is going to be burst open!
