Chapter 2247
Hearing Shawn's words, Nan Gong was slightly stunned. Then she lowered her eyes and said, "What are you talking about now?"
Anyway, he was already here. She didn't drive him away, so she had no reason to blame him. Besides, she hadn't had a rest when he came, so she didn't want to disturb her from her rest.
As for why she couldn't fall asleep now, it wasn't because of him.
But because of what he said...
"But thank you for your concern," she said again, "I'm fine. I've already told her in front of your mother last time that you proposed to me just for fun. It's not true. She shouldn't be angry with me."
Shawn smiled silently. He did not understand his mother...
For the sake of her own wish, his mother did nothing strange.
Seeing that she was practicing calligraphy, he went to her side and looked at it for a while. He gave her some advice, which made Nangong, who was interested in learning, frown. "I know you are talented, but can I write by myself? I don't grow up in this country, so I don't have to learn brush calligraphy as common as people in your country."
However, Shawn didn't think so. He even came behind her and taught her how to write with his hand holding the brush. "You can't say that. You have to be as proficient as you learn. Look, your handwriting isn't good. Generally, it has to be horizontal and vertical. The cut corners should be square and not round..."
Nangong had to be patient and learn from him. It had to be said that Shawn was not only a son of a rich and powerful family, but also a president. He was also knowledgeable and had high attainments in painting and calligraphy.
It was no wonder that compared with the men like Ragib and Aman, who were full of military spirit and aura, Shawn looked much more refined. It was more appropriate to describe him as elegant and elegant, as well as as as gentle as jade!
This was Nan Gong's honest opinion after coming to Country to meet Shawn and the people in his circle!
However, Shawn grabbed her hand and taught her how to do it. Slowly, her face flushed red.
According to the open-minded and open- minded western women, she should immediately turn back and smile warmly at him, caressing his face and giving him a passionate kiss. She also said, "Thank you, baby."
But in the face of Shawn, Nan Gong couldn't do such a thing.
On the one hand, their relationship had not reached that stage. On the other hand, the country's human relations were different. She knew that doing this in this country would make many men feel that women lacked too much restraint.
Of course, the most important thing was that they didn't exchange their feelings. She also knew that their relationship was a little vague now.
Seeing that Nangong didn't move her hands, Shawn looked at her and said, "What's wrong? I don't want to write anymore."
Nan Gong smiled unnaturally and took back her hand. "Go and rest. I'll write it myself for a while."
"Don't mention it. I'll keep you company." Shawn smiled.
"I said no!" Nan Gong was a little anxious. "I can write by myself. Besides, you're free tomorrow? Don't waste your time with me here. I won't go to work tomorrow."
Shawn wanted to cultivate a little bit of intimacy with her. Seeing that she rejected him, he had to stay away from her for a few days. While sighing, he looked at her writing and said, "Don't blame me for making trouble for you. You can practice by yourself. You should not make much progress after practicing for a year. At most, you can only learn to write a few more Chinese characters! And your posture of holding a brush will be more standard."
Nan Gong held back her anger and said unwillingly, "You don't have to worry. I am confident. As long as I insist on practicing every day, I will make progress!"
"So you have been practicing every day?"
Nan Gong pursed her lips and ignored his teasing.
Seeing how reluctant she was to continue writing, Shawn sighed. He remembered that he did have something else to do tomorrow, so he said, "Then, are you looking forward to your progress every day? Of course, you're welcome to ask me anytime. I can be a free teacher. Alright, I do have something else to do tomorrow, so I'll go to bed first."
When Shawn walked to the door of the study, Nan Gong, who had been quiet behind him, suddenly sighed and asked a question that she could not understand. "Shawn, you said that you like me and proposed to me... Is it true?"
Wasn't it just a show?
Wasn't it for infuriating his mother?
Shawn stood for a moment and turned around. He did not know what to say to convince her. He thought for a moment and said, "I've had a girlfriend before, but I haven't made it public or asked for a marriage."
Nangong bit her lips. "Then, why, why do you like me and why should I propose to you? I am your enemy, Nangong Yen's younger sister. Especially for Aman, I am just a hidden danger. I am a woman who may avenge the family at any time. For the sake of eternal trouble, you should let me disappear together. Why? Why did you ask Aman to keep me alive and propose to me? Aren't you afraid... Will I really avenge my brother and the Nangong family one day?"
Her voice was getting lower and lower. She bit her lips tightly and lowered her head in the end.
Shawn looked at her and recalled the time they had met. In the end, he said, "I can't give you a definite answer. When I first met you at that night in Italy, you were obviously a typical Italian woman. You were independent, beautiful, and unrestrained. You even wanted to invite me to a private room to talk with you?" At that time, Shawn couldn't help but laugh. "However, I was still moved by your trust in me at that time. Because you gave me a chance to see you alone, I used the mirror to read your memory at that time, and then I knew where Mrs. Emperor was locked up by your brother."
When he left with the others at that time, he looked at Nangong, who had been knocked down by him. The picture that she had closed her eyes and was unprepared appeared in his mind countless times.
He thought that maybe he felt a little guilty because he had used a woman's trust in him! Therefore, he wanted to compensate her once, so he told Aman that he would let her go.
"After that, I will get along with you. It is indeed a coincidence." Shawn said, "After all, we need to be on our guard against whether you will avenge your family or not. Or if you are instigated by your brother to stay with us with a honey trap to get information about Aman from me. So whether I chase you or stare at you in this way, we can keep an eye on you!"
Nan Gong bit her lips tightly with a smile... Her hands trembled slightly.
This kind of feeling of being expelled from the outside world and being guarded by everyone was the most sad and painful!
"However, there are many things that can't escape love over time." Speaking of which, Shawn sighed. "To be exact, right now, I was just caught up in the middle of a show. I really fell in love with that woman and wanted to protect her for the rest of my life!"
