“Are you angry?”
Nian Xi quickly hid the smile on her face and went forward to hug him.
Jiang Yuning took a step back and directly dodged. His handsome face was gloomy. “You won’t tell me anything anyway. Do you mind if I get angry?”
If it was in the past, Jiang Yuning might have gotten used to Nian Xi standing in front to protect her, but it was different now. He was better than before. After all, three years of undercover work was not in vain.
“I was just afraid that you wouldn’t agree,” Nian Xi smiled bitterly.
Lei Yichen had just explained all this to Jiang Yuning in the car. He understood it, but it didn’t mean that he didn’t mind at all.
“Xixi, you lied to me.” Jiang Yuning felt very hurt, and it was terrible, “You said that you wanted to spend some time alone with me by the sea. You said that you haven’t been so happy in a long time. You don’t know how happy I’ve been these two days, but all of this was a lie that you made up for me.”
“Wow, no wonder you’re so angry.” Lei Yichen, who had just passed by, could not help but look sideways with a smile. “Nian Xi, you’re wrong to say that. The mission is the mission. How can you lie to Professor Jiang like that?”
Nian Xi rolled her eyes at him. “Why haven’t you left yet?”
“He doesn’t have to leave. I’ll leave.” Jiang Yuning turned around and walked along the road in a huff.
It was already dark, and the streets were sparsely populated. Nian Xi quickly chased after him. “Yuning, come back with me. My wound is starting to hurt again.”
She coquettishly wrapped her arms around him.
“You still know how to feel pain?” Jiang Yuning became even angrier. “You haven’t even recovered from your injury, yet you still want to catch a criminal. Nian Xi, you’re not a transformer.”
“I promise I won’t do it again,” Nian Xi swore.
“You always lie to me.” Jiang Yuning didn’t believe it at all. “Do you know the story of the cry wolf?”
Nian Xi felt a headache, she frowned and said solemnly, “Yuning, I understand that you’re angry, but I’m not lying to you about what I said at the seaside hotel. I’m really happy to be able to spend time with you. I even want to accompany you after this mission. We can go to Tibet or Yunnan to travel around. All these years, my brother has often gone on a trip with Sangsang. Actually, I’m quite envious. I also want to have someone to accompany me.”
The anger on Jiang Yuning’s face slowly faded away, replaced by sadness and guilt.
It was his fault. As her boyfriend, he had made her worried. If she had not met him, perhaps her boyfriend would have been a business elite, a doctor, or a lawyer, and she would not have had to work so hard.
Nian Xi sighed and continued, “If we don’t lure Manda out today, she will be a ticking time bomb at any time. When you were young, Manda’s father founded the TOX organization, and was later arrested by the police.
“But in less than ten years, he has made a comeback. For a person like Manda who grew up in a criminal organization, it will be very difficult for her to return to the right path. Moreover, she will definitely avenge for the organization and her father. I don’t want the incident that happened three years ago to happen again, “So, I must destroy the root of the problem. Moreover, if we don’t capture her, what is the use of your three years of undercover? What are we doing after being separated for so many years?”
Jiang Yuning was shocked.
Actually, he knew what Nian Xi had said.
However, from what Nian Xi said, it seemed like he was being too petty.
“Xixi, I admit that you’re right, but I don’t see it as far as you do because I only have eyes for you. I’m here as a spy because of you. If you’re not around one day, then what’s the point of doing all this?”
