He found that his woman was getting meaner and meaner.
“You’re not dreaming,” he said grumpily.
Luosang was so excited, but soon she panicked.
Since the beginning of her memory, the word ‘mother’ was both familiar and strange.
What would happen when she finally met her mother?
Would they naturally become close despite the fact that they had been separated for so many years, like the stories in some TV series?
Would they be like strangers?
Seeing her fall into silence, Nian Junting pulled her over and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Junting, have you met my mother yet?” Luosang asked uneasily. “What kind of person is she? How did you find her? Didn’t you say that you’ll start looking for her after you got my father out of the prison?”
“In fact, I didn’t look for her. She just showed up and I recognized her.” Nian Junting stroked her arm and told her the truth, “She cares a lot about you. She really loves you. She worried that I might mistreat you, so she got close to me as a stranger to see if I’m a good person or not. And in fact, you’ve met your brother.”
Luosang paused briefly then hurriedly got up from him and asked, “Who is it?”
“Guess,” Nian Junting said. “You should be able to guess it now. You’ve seen him lately.”
Luosang fell into confusion. Whom had she recently met? She stayed at home every single day.
Suddenly, a thought popped up in her mind and some words escaped her lips, “That boy who saved me in the shopping mall? My new neighbor?”
Nian Junting raised his brows and smiled silently. Seeing that look on his face, Luosang knew that she had guessed right.
With excitement, she slapped Nian Junting’s chest and said, “I can’t believe that I didn’t realize it until just now.”
That slap caused Nian Junting real pain. “Xu Luosang, I’m not a table.”
Luosang ignored him, submerged in her own emotions. “No wonder I felt so familiar with him that day. I felt no repulsion, not even when he carried me. I felt happy and sweet. It turned out that it was because he’s my brother.”
Nian Junting was so angry that even his liver hurt.
Happy and sweet? She never mentioned happy and sweet when he carried her.
“Xu Luosang, you didn’t say so back then.” He clenched his teeth and said, “You told me that you only let him hold you because you were dizzy.”
Luosang buried her face in her hands, saying, “My brother is so handsome. How can he be so handsome? He’s so, so handsome.”
Nian Junting stayed silent.
With anger, he dragged her over and said, “Is your brother more handsome or am I?”
Luosang waved her hands and said, “You’re my boyfriend and he’s my brother. There’s no point to this comparison.”
“I care, very much.” Nian Junting’s dark eyes showed strong discontent. “You never said that about me.”
He was jealous. He remembered that she said she would be really nice to her brother, if she had one. What would he do if that really happened?
“Alright. You’re handsome too. You’re the manly type and my brother is a pretty type.”
“That’s not right. You once said that I’m like a man in comics.” Nian Junting remembered that clearly.
“You’re my favorite type.” Luosang wasn’t in the mood for this kind of discussion so she gave a simple response.
Nian Junting curved his lips in a smile as her answer satisfied him.
“It seems that my brother knows who I am for a long time.” Luosang had finally figured it out. “He moved next-door to me deliberately, didn’t he? Why didn’t he just tell me the truth?”
Nian Junting glanced at her. Her families didn’t tell her the truth because they wanted to find out what kind of man he was first. Mo Liuxi even pretended to be a suitor of Luosang. Back then, Nian Junting almost lost his temper because of jealousy. If he hadn’t avoided picking a fight with him that day, Mo Jin would have seen him as a violent person.
His future brother-in-law was so evil. That boy was clearly not easy to deal with.
“I guess it’s because they don’t want to scare you,” He said. “Besides, when your mother left, you didn’t know that you had a brother. As for your mother, even though she hasn’t talked to you, she has done a lot for you. Earlier I told you that a foreigner bought out the Yi Group. That person was your mother.”
Luosang was surprised. She had heard from Zeng Zhun that her mother’s family background wasn’t ordinary, but didn’t expect her to be so rich. She even bought out the Yi Group easily.
“Why didn’t she come back for me earlier?” Luosang suddenly got upset.
Previously she had thought that her mother might be living a poor life out there, and that was why she didn’t come back for her. But now she found that she was wrong.
“She had her own reasons. She only returned to the Morrison Family five years ago. Before that, she and your brother lived a hard life. So they couldn’t come back to find you. Besides, if your father found out about your brother, he would want him. As a woman who has no power or money, I guess your mother didn’t dare to take that risk.”
Nian Junting gently put an arm around Luosang to comfort her. “I’ve asked Lu Kang to do some background checking. Your mother often went to the polar regions to film documentaries. Three years ago, she had an accident and was injured pretty badly. Three years ago, your brother came back to look for you, but then left in haste. I guess that was because your mother had an accident.”
Luosang understood, and suddenly, she blamed her father a little bit. If he had dealt with the problems between him and her mother in a mature way, and not locked her mother up after she got pregnant, she might not have been away for so many years.
“Junting, my mother didn’t get married again, did she?”
“Em… according to what I know, no.”
Luosang sighed. “In fact, my father still loves her. What happened twenty years ago was only a misunderstanding. I wish that they could get back together.”
Nian Junting moved his lips slightly then told the truth, “Luo, even though I haven’t talked too much with your mother, I can tell that she hates your father. In fact, your parents are both adults. Just let them do what they find comfortable. It’s unnecessary for them to be together for their children if it is against their wills.”
He himself had experienced the same thing. He witnessed Murong Cheng sacrifice a lot for Nian Xi and himself.
Luosang knew that he was thinking of his own parents. She nodded in silence, then said, “You’re right. As long as they’re happy.”
After saying that, she got up from the bed and said, “When will they be here?”
“They live a little far away from here. It’ll take them about an hour driving. So they might be here at half-past ten or later. You can get some more sleep,” Nian Junting said as he held her hand.
“No. How can I possibly fall asleep?” Luosang washed her hair, did some skincare, then changed her clothes over and over again.
Nian Junting leaned against the door of the closet, watched her, and said unhappily, “You never selected clothes so carefully when going out with me.”
“You’ve seen me in ugly shapes and in pretty clothes. Why do you mind?” Luosang walked to him, stood on her tiptoes and kissed his lips. She was in a very good mood.
Nian Junting felt sweet in his heart. His woman rarely took such initiative to kiss him. How could he let her run away easily?
His strong arm clapped her waist and pulled her to his chest. Then Nian Junting’s lips pressed against hers aggressively and invaded her sweet, freshly scented mouth.
Luosang put both her arms around his neck.
