Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

At two o’clock in the afternoon, Luo Sang received a message from CEO Nian after she woke up from a nap—I’ll come pick you up this afternoon. If Xiao Si asks about the Uggs and scarf, you need to tell him that you wanted me to wear them.

Luo Sang looked outside and found that it was a sunny day. So in this kind of weather, he went to work wearing Uggs and a scarf. What public company owner goes to work wearing Uggs? What a psycho, thought Luo Sang.

She guessed that he must have shown off in front of Xiao Si, and that now he needed to solve the problem he had created for himself. Luo Sang was speechless. She didn’t reply to his message.

At three o’clock, Nian Junting called her and asked, “Have you seen my WeChat message? Why didn’t you reply?”

“Why would I lie for you?” Luo Sang laughed. “You always like to make up things that never happened. Since you’ve already told him so, you shouldn’t be worrying that he might discover your lie.”

Nian Junting stayed silent for a while and then said, “That’s because since I founded the company, I did not have a girlfriend until I met you. People always show off their girlfriends in front of me. Now, I finally have a girlfriend, so I will surely make them jealous.”

That sounds… quite pitiful, thought Luo Sang.

“Alright, I’ll help you once,” she said. “But next time, you really can’t make me be responsible for it all.” After ending the call, Luo Sang began thinking that maybe she should give Nian Junting a little punishment.

At half-past five, Nian Junting drove a Mercedes-Benz to pick Luo Sang up after work. Xiao Si was in the backseat. “Sangsang, isn’t Tingting wearing too much? He said that you made him wear it all,” said Xiao Si to Luo Sang when he saw her.

“Yeah, I bought him those. Of course he has to wear them,” Luo Sang looked at Nian Junting with a smile and said, “Husband, you’re so nice to me. I’m really touched.”

She hardly ever called him “husband.” Hearing her soft voice, Nian Junting almost floated up into the sky. He asked her to cooperate, but didn’t think that she would actually be so cooperative. After hearing her words, he so wanted to take her in his arms and kiss her. “Sure,” he said. “I have to live up to your kindness.”

“I knew you would.” Luo Sang nodded and then took out a pair of thick woolen socks from her bag and said, “So you’ll wear these woolen socks that I bought for you, too, right?”

Nian Junting couldn’t think of a word to say.

Seeing that, Xiao Si laughed his head off. Oh my, Luo Sang is amazing, he thought. Those Uggs have already made him feel so hot. He’ll probably be cooked if he puts on those socks. “Tingting, Sangsang is so nice to you. Just put them on,” Xiao Si said while trying not to burst out laughing.

“Are you gonna wear them or not?” Luo Sang threatened him with a smile. “If you refuse to wear them, I’ll think you don’t care enough about me.”

“I’ll wear them, since you want me to.” Nian Junting clenched his teeth, took off his shoes, and put the socks on. Before, he had already felt like the bottoms of his feet were burning, and now, he felt like he was standing on an erupting volcano.

“Husband, I love you.” Luo Sang turned and kissed his cheek, then said, “After you told me so much about all those acupuncture points on the feet, I figured that I can’t let your feet feel even the slightest coldness.”

“Thank you…” Nian Junting was terribly displeased. His woman had learned to make fun of him. What a naughty girl. At this very moment, he loved and hated this naughty girl at the same time.

He started the car and opened the window, as he wanted some wind to blow in and cool him down. However, Xiao Si shivered in the backseat and said, “Ah, I feel so cold. Please close the window. I’m freezing.”

Luo Sang looked at Nian Junting and said, “I feel cold too.”

Nian Junting didn’t say anything. Cold, my *ss, he thought. It’s nice and cool out there, not cold at all. Now that these two have teamed up to play tricks on me, I’ll punish her hard in bed when we get back.
