Chapter 521: She Turned Around and Found the Tall and Sturdy Nian Junting Standing at the Door

“I don’t think so. If the person I love loves me as deeply, and his body only responds to me but to no other woman, I’d be very happy.” Nian Xi laughed.

“Yeah?” Nian Junting thought for a moment, then abruptly stood up.

Nian Xi raised her head and asked, “What are you doing?”

“I’ve gotten the answer. I’m going to sleep now.” Nian Junting smiled. “Sangsang is having these thoughts because she loves me so much that she’s lacking a sense of security.” After saying that, he walked upstairs with confident strides.

Looking at her brother, who had started to get arrogant again, Nian Xi really regretted comforting him and enlightening him. That idiot, who knew nothing about love, deserved to be puzzled. Now she was the one who was puzzled. Why wasn’t Ji Chuan glum about the possibility of losing her?

…

At seven in the morning, Nian Junting got up and drove straight to Xiao Si’s place. Mrs. Xiao opened the door for him. After that, he went directly upstairs and threw back Xiao Si’s quilt.

“What?” Xiao Si was still sleepy. “What time is it? You came so early to wish me a happy New Year. I know you want me to be touched, but it’s too early. I haven’t even woken up yet.”

Nian Junting sneered, dragged him up from the bed, and said, “Wish you a happy New Year? In your dreams. Let me ask you something. Did you tell Leng Shuangwei about my illness?”

Xiao Si rubbed his eyes and responded, “I didn’t.”

“Except for you guys, who else know about it? You’re my closest friend, so you know about my illness better than anyone. Even Nian Xi didn’t know what had happened to me after my physical injury was healed. But now, Leng Shuangwei knows. Except for you, I can’t think of anyone who might have told her about it.” Nian Junting narrowed his eyes and said, “Or, did you tell Ji Chuan?”

“I really didn’t.” Xiao Si raised three fingers to signal he was swearing it was the truth. “We’re brothers. Don’t I know what privacy means? I didn’t tell Ji Chuan, either. I know that he’s close with Shuangwei. I’m not an idiot.”

“Who told her then?” Nian Junting asked in a deep voice.

“Not me.” After saying that, Xiao Si suddenly recalled that day when he had gotten really drunk. Instantly, he turned less confident. “I didn’t say anything that day when Shuangwei drove me home after I got drunk with the Feng family… did I?”

Nian Junting recalled that as well and got extremely angry. “Can’t you control yourself when you’re drunk? There are some things that you cannot tell just anybody.”

“I was too drunk that day. I was nearly unconscious.” Xiao Si’s scalp grew numb under Nian Junting’s gaze. “Shuangwei really shouldn’t have told Sangsang about that. How could she? She’s ruining your happiness, isn’t she?”

“You finally get it. I was supposed to have a girlfriend to warm my bed this New Year’s, but you ruined it.” Nian Junting clenched his teeth. “After New Year’s, you’ll be responsible for the case in the Northwest, and you won’t be allowed to come back.”

“No.” Xiao Si shivered and said, “That place is all desert with only a few roads. It’ll require two months to develop that area. It’s so cold now, my handsome face will be destroyed by the gale over there. I don’t have a girlfriend yet. Ah, my mom says that she’ll arrange blind dates for me during the New Year. I want a girlfriend.”
