“Yeah, and you wouldn’t tell me.” Nian Xi sneered. “I was going to call you and complain.”
“Complain about what? He didn’t die.”
Nian Xi was so angry. “He’s like a brother to you. How can you say that about him?”
“Because he’s like a brother to me, I know that he won’t die so easily. Take good care of yourself and prepare your request for leave. When Ji Chuan comes back, you’ll be looking after him in the hospital,” said Nian Junting. “Where’s Luo?”“I drove her back.” Nian Xi snorted. “She knows who your ex-girlfriend is.”
“You told her?” Nian Junting’s voice turned deep.
Before Nian Xi could respond, Nian Junting unleashed his rebuke. “I didn’t tell you about what happened to Ji Chuan, and now you’re already getting your revenge on me, right?”
Nian Xi was too angry to talk. Her brother actually thought of her as such an awful person.
“Don’t try to fool me. How could she possibly just guess it? She’s not a fiction writer. You must have told her something.” Nian Junting sounded anxious and annoyed.
Nian Xi was speechless. Her brother’s future wife was very sensitive, and that had nothing to do with her. “What I said is the truth. Believe me or don’t. Women can be like that when they’re sensitive.”
“Yeah?” Nian Junting stayed silent for a short while and then said, “I think she cares too much about me. What should I do? She’s very jealous. She will overthink things and be angry.”Nian Xi couldn’t help but tell her brother, “I don’t think so. She looked calm to me.” She’s very jealous? I doubt it, thought Nian Xi. Maybe you are.
“Haven’t you heard that some people are very good at hiding their feelings? I think Luo is one of them.” Nian Junting rested his head on his palm and continued, “What should I do? She’s such a jealous woman.”
The corner of Nian Xi’s mouth twitched slightly. She was going to be mad at her brother, but now, she felt that her heart was tired. “I’m done talking to you. Bye,” she said, then ended the call.
After that, Nian Junting couldn’t stop feeling vexed.
…
At Tianhu Villa at dusk, Luo Sang was helping Sister Lan in the kitchen. She wasn’t in a good mood, probably because she had received quite a bit of information today.
Sister Lan’s voice came from behind her. “Sangsang, didn’t I ask you to peel the ginger? Why are you peeling garlic?”
Luo Sang focused her eyes and found that the thing in her hands that was supposed to be a piece of ginger had now turned into garlic. “Sorry, I was thinking,” she said.
Sister Lan asked while cutting vegetables, “What were you thinking about that entranced you so much?”
Luo Sang remained silent for a while, then responded, “Sister Lan, do you know Leng Shuangwei?”
Sister Lan was slightly puzzled and replied, “No, who’s that?”
“No one.” Luo Sang shook her head. It seemed that Leng Shuangwei was someone from a long time ago, or Sister Lan would have known her.
At half-past six, before Luo Sang had finished eating dinner, Nian Junting came back.
“Didn’t you say that you needed to attend some social engagement tonight? Why are you back so early?” Luo Sang asked while eating.
“Um, I came back early.” Nian Junting carefully observed the look on her face, then his heart sank a little. She hadn’t even looked at him. He believed that she was so jealous right now but was still trying to act calm.
“What did you get with my mother and sister today?”
“Two lipsticks, a dress, a necklace, and a bracelet.”
“That’s all?” Nian Junting asked.
“I don’t need much.” Luo Sang raised her head and said, “Besides… Didn’t Nian Xi call you?”
Nian Junting’s heart missed a beat. I’m dead. What is she implying? Is she going to question me?
