Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Luosang was shaking her head, but before she could decline Nian Xi’s kindness, Nian Junting said, “No.”

“But why? A voice like hers will surely be popular, she’s a good artist to invest in,” protested Nian Xi.

Nian Junting pursed his lips before replying, “Because she can only sing for me.”

Nian Xi was speechless. It has only been a couple of hours since he met her again and he’s already acting so possessive? Don’t tell me he’s planning to bring Luosang straight to bed tonight, Nian Xi thought.

Luosang face palmed. Never had she met anyone as thick skinned as Nian Junting. Didn’t she just make things clear with him last week? He was acting as if she was his girlfriend.

Just as the atmosphere was starting to feel a little tense, the waiter brought a plate of lobsters to their table. Nian Xi hurriedly said, “Let’s eat, they’re known for their lobsters here.”

She handed a pair of gloves to Luosang.

Luosang looked over at Nian Junting, and her eyes reflected hesitance. Nian Xi explained, “My brother doesn’t eat lobster. He thinks it’s too much of a hassle.”

Luosang lowered her head and started eating alongside Nian Xi.

As they worked through the pile, Nian Xi laughed, “This reminds me, I was watching a variety show on TV recently. Big S was telling the other celebrities that she never des-hells prawns for herself, and her husband always does it for her. We got to find ourselves a man like that. Someone who will dote on their wife.”

“I watched that episode too,” Luosang replied, “Her husband is really sweet to her.”

Nian Junting had been listening to the conversation without adding any input, but suddenly he picked up a pair of plastic gloves.

Nian Xi was stunned, “Brother, are you going go for the lobster?”

Nian Junting started peeling the lobsters clumsily without replying his sister.

As she watched his brute attempt, Luosang couldn’t help but to remind him, “They sliced the back of the lobster, so just peel along that slit.”

Nian Junting followed her instructions and proceeded to put the peeled flesh into Luosang’s bowl.

The two girls were looking at him in a daze, and he continued peeling the shellfish and piled on more lobsters onto Luosang’s bowl.

“Didn’t you guys say that prawns should be peeled by the men?” he glanced seductively at Luosang.

Luosang’s heart skipped a beat, and the lobster in her own hands fell into the bowl.

She realised that Nian Xi was staring at them, but she couldn’t help but blush a deep-red. Her mouth gaped open and she didn’t know what to say to both of them.

Nian Xi was in shock as well, and after a while she slowly slid her bowl in front of her brother, “Brother, can you help me peel one too?”

“No, peel them yourself,” Nian Junting said coldly as he continued working on the lobsters for Luosang.

Nian Xi was flabbergasted. After all, she was the one who brought them together tonight. Her brother’s attitude made her feel like she just had a mouthful of dog food.

Luosang coaxed gently, “Come on, help Nian Xi peel one too.”

She didn’t notice that she was speaking in a gentle and loving manner, but Nian Junting picked it up quickly. He felt pleased about himself.

You said you didn’t like me but yet you are speaking to me in such a sweet way. Damn, when women have a sexy voice, it will be the death of me. I could listen to her all day for the rest of my life, Nian Junting thought happily to himself.

“It’s not that I don’t want to help her, but I just don’t want her to have unrealistic expectations of her significant other in the future. I don’t want to be the reason if she ends up as an old maiden,” Nian Junting explained unapologetically.

“Whatever. I’ll peel them myself,” Nian Xi said with a grimace, and she picked up a big lobster with resentment.

Luosang assessed the situation and started peeling a lobster for Nian Xi.

Nian Junting grinned to himself as he watched her fingers move nimbly, “Wow, she’s even buttering up her sister-in-law.”
