Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

“He’d better not show up, then,” Nian Junting said coldly.

“What are you talking about? Do you wish that I didn’t have a younger brother?” Luosang pinched his waist. He did not know, but every time Luosang saw him with Nian Xi, she was envious that he had a younger sister.

“No, if your brother shows up and takes my place in your heart, you won’t spoil me anymore.” Nian Junting had a distant look in his eyes. “Promise me you’ll spoil me for the rest of your life.”

“I never said such a thing.” Luosang blushed. Moreover, weren’t these words to be said by women to men instead?

“You agreed to my proposal. Isn’t this what that entails?” Nian Junting asked.

“…” He must have gotten it the wrong way around.

“Let’s be clear, if your brother shows up, he can only take up five percent of your heart.” Nian Junting continued, “The other 95 percent belongs to me.”

Luosang wanted to laugh. It had been a while since she last saw him behaving so unreasonably.

After getting into the car, Nian Junting started the engine. “Let’s go back to your apartment. Yan Su is at home, but you’ve accepted my viewpoint from earlier.”

Luosang was startled. She was preparing to open the box of food Nian Junting had prepared for her. “When did I ever accept your viewpoint?”

“You didn’t refute my statement earlier. Doesn’t that mean you agree?” Nian Junting raised his eyebrow.

“That was regarding Yan Su’s matters, alright? You really think I’m like you? Your skin must be thicker than the Great Wall of China.” Luosang was starting to get annoyed. She may have missed him dearly while he was away, but now she could barely stand the sight of him.

Nian Junting laughed. “I often tell my employees, one must be thick-skinned to be successful.”

“Sorry that I won’t be successful, then. I must be such a burden.” Luosang gritted her teeth. “Forget it, take me back to my apartment. I still have classes tomorrow morning. Your villa is too far away.”

Hearing this, Nian Junting was a little disappointed. “So I came all the way in the middle of the night just to bring you food and take you home?”

“Isn’t that enough?” Luosang glared at him. “Or did you do this just to get me between your sheets?”

“Of course not. I’m not that shallow.” Nian Junting quickly averted his gaze, rectified his mood, and started the engine again.

“Oh, yes. What about Miao Zheng?” Luosang asked. “He’s all over the news. They say that he might have mental problems.”

“He’s just trying to get through the legal loophole. Many wealthy people try to pull that trick. Rest assured, I’ve decided to press charges. He has no mental problems, he just has violent tendencies,” Nian Junting said. “People like him, just because they are wealthy, they don’t treat women with respect. If he is not punished, many other innocent women will be hurt in the future.”

“How likely is it that you’ll win?”

“His wife is willing to be a witness.”

Luosang was surprised. “How did you manage to get his wife’s support? Was she a victim of his violence as well?”

“Very possibly, but mainly because I told her that if Miao Zheng goes behind bars, the remaining shares of the Bingyang Group will go to her daughter.” Nian Junting chuckled. “She agreed immediately.”

Luosang was speechless. People nowadays…”What about Yi Jingxi?”

“Yi Jingxi is a little different from Miao Zheng. Miao Zheng’s misdoings have been witnessed by the public, and there’s no doubt that he’s guilty. For Yi Jingxi, however, there is no compelling evidence, save for Zhong Yi’s testimony. It has already been a few months. Moreover, the evidence is long gone. I hear that Yi Jingxi will be making a trip down to An City to record a statement. Only then can we be sure of the duration of Zhong Yi’s sentence.”
