Being nourished by love, Nian Junting looked delighted every single day, even when he was in his office. Sometimes, happy people tended to be compassionate. Seeing Xiao Si’s red cheeks, he couldn’t help but ask, “How are things going with you and Ji Nuanyi?”
“I’ve only seen her once in a meeting since I came back. You go home and spend a happy time with your girlfriend every day, but you force me to work my ass off in the office,” Xiao Si complained.
“I’m doing it for your own good. You’re too ugly recently. It’s better for you to stay in the office now.” Nian Junting was sharp-tongued as always.
“Extreme joy begets sorrow. Be careful,” said Xiao Si grumpily. “It’s not normal for a woman to suddenly be so nice to you.”
“Really?” Nian Junting raised his eyebrows. “We’ve been together for a long time. Perhaps she’s realized that she’s obsessed with me, so she’s decided to give me all her love recklessly. You’ll know how I feel when you have my charm.”
Xiao Si stopped talking but silently wished Luosang would torture him.
…
Luosang spent a week following Nian Junting around, then stopped coming to the villa. For the first couple of days, Nian Junting thought that she was busy working and studying. But since she refused to come to the villa with all sorts of excuses for a couple of days in a row, he started to be unhappy.
He went to her apartment to find her, but she wasn’t there. He called her and asked her where she was, but every time she didn’t give him an answer. He couldn’t understand. Having not seen her for a few days, Nian Junting felt very uncomfortable. With no other choice, he went to her school to look for her.
He waited for a while near the teaching building, and then saw her and Chi Shengxu walk out together, talking and laughing. Chi Shengxu was carrying her bag. Nian Junting didn’t know what they were talking about, but he did see Luosang raise her head and laugh happily. He held the desert that he had prepared for her and watched them. He was dizzy for a moment, and then jealousy and anger started flooding in his veins.
Before losing control, he recalled that she had complained about him being too bossy, and she had said that she and Chi Shengxu were only friends. He stopped himself from losing temper, then walked over to her with big steps, held her arm, and said with a cold expression, “Where’s your bag? Why do you need another man to carry your bag? Xu Luosang, are your arms broken? Are you lame?”
“Xu, give me my bag,” said Luosang to Chi Shengxu.
“Alright. Make it clear with him as soon as you can. I don’t want to keep waiting.” Chi Shengxu handed her the bag, then glanced at Nian Junting, turned, and left.
“What did he mean by he doesn’t want to keep waiting? Why did he say that just now?” Nian Junting stared at Luosang with icy-cold eyes. “And you called him Xu. Xu Luosang, you promised me that you’d keep a distance from him. Did you forget about that? Is this what you promised me?”
“I don’t want to fight you here,” Lousang pulled his hand away, turned, and walked forward. Nian Junting was stunned for a second, then caught up with her with large strides. Luosang stopped by the side of the lake, then said to him, “Nian Junting, I want to break up with you.”
Nian Junting suddenly choked on his angry words. He gazed at her, as if he didn’t realize what had happened. He thought he misheard her. He hadn’t even started arguing with her. Why did she suddenly want to break up? “Xu Luosang, do you know what you’re talking about?”
“I’m very clear. I want to break up with you.” Luosang raised her head and looked him in the eyes. His eyes suddenly narrowed.
Junting, forgive me. In the future, I’ll do whatever you want me to do.
