Chapter 894: The Puppy Wants a Girlfriend

Nian Xi paused briefly.

If another man said that to her, she would want to punch him in the face.

However, as those words escaped his lips, her heart skipped a beat.

She took the clothes and handed them to him. He immediately turned around and put them on.

After getting dressed, he turned back and asked her with a low voice, “What do you think about my body? I want a girlfriend, and I’m worried that she may not like my body.”

Nian Xi was stunned, then felt slightly sad. Even the puppy wanted a girlfriend.

She was still single. She felt as if her puppy was going to abandon her.

“You’re too skinny. You have no muscles,” Nian Xi snorted and said. “Women like strong men. Strong men make them feel safe.”

Jiang Yuning looked at his own body and argued, “The sense of security cannot be given by a good body. Believe it or not, I am able to defeat five muscular men with my technology within two seconds.

Nian Xi nodded and said, “I believe it. I know that you have many great inventions. But think about why there are so many stars who have perfect bodies. That’s the current aesthetical standard.”

Jiang Yuning lowered his head silently. He was so disappointed and frustrated.

Nian Xi instantly felt a little guilty. He only wanted a girlfriend. She shouldn’t have busted his confidence.

“Well, in fact, your body isn’t so bad… I’ll give you a seventy out of a hundred,” Nian Qi mumbled.

“Only seven…” Jiang Yuning wasn’t happy. “I usually get a hundred out of a hundred.”

Nian Xi didn’t know how to respond. Even her shameless brother gave himself ninety-nine out of a hundred.

Whatever, he’s a scientist, she thought.

…

At breakfast, Jiang Yuning surprisingly had a sandwich, a croissant, some oat milk, an omelette, and a muffin.

People were shocked. Usually, he ate like a bird, and rarely touched meat. But today, he even had a few slices of ham.

Uncle Han was a little worried. “Mr. Jiang, are you…” he asked.

Jiang Yuning swallowed the muffin with effort, then burped and wrote, ‘I want to be strong.’

Uncle Han was delighted. “You really should. You are too skinny.”

Nian Xi’s mouth corners twitched slightly. “He’s trying very hard to get a girlfriend,” she said to herself.

…

After breakfast, they headed toward the auditorium in the exhibition center, where the conference would take place.

On their way, Jiang Yuning was reading his speech draft, which was in English.

Nian Xi glanced at the draft then felt dizzy.

About ten minutes later, she found that Jiang Yuning was in the exact same posture. She admired him for how focused he was.

Another ten minutes later, she felt slightly strange. She bent over to look at his face and found that he had fallen asleep.

He was about to give a speech in front of physicists from all around the world, yet he fell asleep.

Nian Xi poked him on the shoulder.

He swayed slightly, slowly leaning on her shoulder. He even moved his hip to make himself more comfortable.

Nian Xi was speechless.

She wanted to wake him up, but Uncle Han stopped her and whispered, “Don’t. Mr. Jiang didn’t get much sleep last night. He was nervous. He only slept for about an hour this morning.”

Nian Xi was surprised. “No wonder he has big dark circles under his eyes. But he doesn’t seem nervous.”

“Mr. Jiang looks silly all the time. How can you possibly tell if he’s nervous or not?” Uncle Han smiled. “He told me about it this morning. Just let him get some sleep. You need to understand that he is carrying many responsibilities.”

“All right…”

Nian Xi agreed but didn’t feel right.

Am I supposed to let him sleep on my shoulder like this? she thought.
