“What are you thinking, that I want to crawl into bed with you? I’m not so shameless.”

Nian Junting chided her with an earnest expression, “You don’t have to be shy, it’s not like we haven’t slept in the same room before.”

Slept in the same room…

Sister Lan, who was standing aside could not help but blush.

Luo Sang was utterly embarrassed. Somehow, the innocent words Nian Junting uttered sounded so scandalous.

“Even if I need someone to take care of me, I can ask Sister Lan, I don’t need you around.”

“Sister Lan’s snoring at night is so loud, you won’t be able to sleep,” Nian Junting turned to Sister Lan and asked, “Am I right?”

Sister Lan momentarily felt vexed and exasperated. Her grandson was injured, and now she had to bear a reputation of having loud snores.

“Yes, I snore, I’ve been snoring really loudly recently, Master Nian always complains that he can hear my snores when he walks past my door.”

“See? With such loud snores, I can never let her take care of you,” Nian Junting nodded, “Regardless of whether you agree, I must stay here to look after you.”

Luo Sang was speechless.

She quickly realized her mistake. She should not have agreed to come to Tian Hu Villa to recover.

This scoundrel had even learnt to put on an earnest and innocent appearance while going about his mischievous ways. The trouble was that you could not find fault with any of it, and if you did, he could even turn it against you for being ‘unchaste’.

Just before dinner in the evening, Nian Xi arrived at the villa hastily in her police uniform.

“Sangsang, are you feeling better? I was planning to visit you in the hospital in the day, but I have been investigating yesterday’s incident.”

“Much better, it’s not a serious injury,” Luo Sang’s eyebrows twitched, “What have you uncovered?”

“I have discovered that… there is something suspicious about your accident.”

Nian Xi took a sip of hot tea and said, “The planning committee gave me a blueprint of the event stage. I got a senior from the investigation department to take a look, he said that under normal circumstances, if there were one or two loose screws, the stage would not collapse in such a short period of time, unless the piece in the middle had completely not been screwed on securely.”

Luo Sang felt a chill go down her spine, could Ye Chuen have invited her to host her party as part of a ploy?

Maybe she deliberately let Luo Sang fall into the water to embarrass herself, but they did not have any conflict on a daily basis and were even roommates for a year. Could Chuen have been so vicious?

“If I may… ask so presumptuously, Sangsang, did you and Ye Chuen bear any grudge against each other? From what I see, you two are friends.” Nian Xi too, found it hard to believe that Ye Chuen would do something like that.

Luo Sang glanced at Nian Junting before speaking, “She likes Chi Shengxu, but Chi Shengxu doesn’t seem to be interested in her. Chi Shengxu and I are friends.”

“I see, I noticed that day, Chi Shengxu seems to fancy you.”

Nian Xi felt Nian Junting’s cold glare fall upon her. With a shiver, she added hurriedly, “Of course, Sangsang, you only have eyes for my brother, his charisma is truly incomparable.”

Luo Sang was speechless.

Such flattery…

Nian Junting cleared his throat, “Pass all of your findings to my lawyer, I’ve decided to press charges for conspiring to murder. Of course, if the true culprit turns him or herself in, I will consider going less harshly on them.”

Nian Xi was a little disturbed, if the investigations indeed revealed Ye Chuen as the culprit, it would be troublesome. Then, Grandma and Mum would also be dragged into the matter.

“Nian Xi, thanks for the hard work. Let me peel an orange for you, after all, Luo Sang will not have much to say about this matter.”
