Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Nian Xi felt speechless; he was so gullible.

Did he know what kind of gift he just gave to Nian Junting? Any man would like that gift, especially a man like Nian Xi’s brother.

Luosang brought food out of the kitchen and saw Nian Junting come downstairs after putting the gift in the bedroom.

He seemed to be taking the gift quite seriously. She started to get curious about it.

“What did Jiang Yuning give you? You seem to be treasuring it so much,” she asked Nian Junting once he came downstairs.

“Who’s treasuring it?” Nian Junting instantly denied it. “I’m just being polite. No matter what the gift is, I’ve already accepted it. I should not put it just randomly somewhere in front of the person who gave it to me,” he said in a serious tone.

Luosang blinked. If she remembered right, about half an hour ago, Nian Junting told her that he would never say a word to Jiang Yuning, nor accept any apology gift from him.

Luosang knew her husband quite well. Jiang Yuning must have given him a gift that he actually liked.

“It’s not a deer penis, is it?”

Nian Junting shambled, stared at her with red cheeks and said, “Sangsang, why is your mind so dirty? Are you not satisfied with my sexual ability anymore? Do you want to do it every three hours?”

Luosang gave a start, then hurriedly shook her head and said, “No, no, our current sex life is just perfect.”

Seriously, a little less might even be better.

“You can tell me any time if you’re unsatisfied.” Nian Junting gave her a complicated glance, then said, “Let’s go to dinner.”

Luosang looked at his back and sighed with relief.

During dinner, Jiang Yuning attentively removed the shells of sea whelks, then put the whelk near Nian Xi’s mouth and said, “Try this, Baby Xi.”

“Em, you try it too,” Nian Xi said.

Jiang Yuning was a little disappointed. He put his mouth near her ear and said, “I like the way you called me that this morning.”

“Eh-hem.” Nian Xi gave a cough, put some food in his mouth and said, “Try this, baby.”

“Pah!” Nian Junting spit out his soup.

Luosang also had trouble and had to spend a solid effort to swallow the food in her mouth. They couldn’t bear listening to the conversation between Nian Xi and her boyfriend.

“Brother, don’t spit out food while you’re eating.” Jiang Yuning handed Nian Junting a clean piece of tissue.

Nian Junting took it awkwardly and wiped his mouth with it. After a short silence, he said with a deep voice, “You two are adults. Why are you calling each other baby? Don’t you find that disgusting?”

Jiang Yuning blinked and said, “No. Because she is my baby, and I’m hers.”

After saying that, he dropped his head and continued removing sea whelk shells for Nian Xi.

Nian Xi glared at Nian Junting and said, “Luosang calls you Tingting. Don’t you find that disgusting?”

Nian Junting opened his mouth, but Luosang didn’t give him the chance to speak. “All right,” she said. “Many young couples who really love each other call each other baby these days. That’s just normal. Don’t make it a big deal.”

Nian Junting didn’t agree with her.

…

After dinner, Nian Xi and Jiang Yuning sat together in the living room, eating fruit and watching TV. Luosang stayed in the dining room, feeding Apple a puree.

Nian Junting sat down beside her and said, “We really love each other. Why did you never call me baby? Am I not your baby?”

Luosang scornfully snorted in her head. He said that it was disgusting, but he was jealous of Nian Xi and Jiang Yuning.

Luosang raised her head, looked at him and said, “Baby Ting.”

Nian Junting put a hand on his forehead and said, “Stop it. I feel sick. I want to throw up.”

Luosang didn’t know what to say. He was such a drama queen.

“A man like me just can’t live with that.” Nian Junting sighed. “I now know that I’m your baby. You don’t need to call me that.”

Luosang stayed silent.

Damn. He wanted her to call him that, didn’t he?
