“Big Brother Chi Yang, you’re the best!”
Chi Yang, “…”
What was that? What did he just say?
“You want to solve it yourself?”
Zhong Nuannuan thought, ‘…Didn’t you just agree?’
“No way! They’re bad people. If you push them too far, you’ll never know what kind of action they will take against you in their desperation! Desperate dogs will jump onto the wall,” Chi Yang said in a severe tone.
Zhong Nuannuan thought to herself, ‘…Is this how a man of his word should act after uttering his promise?’
“Big Brother Chi Yang, that won’t happen! I’m very powerful! If they’re dogs, then I’m a lion! Even if a dog jumps over the wall, do you think it’ll be able to bite the lion?”
As she said that, Zhong Nuannuan even waved her little fists. Which part of her looks like a lion when she bared her teeth? She was clearly a cute little kitten that had not even grown teeth!
Seeing how conflicted Chi Yang was, Zhong Nuannuan wriggled her body restlessly.
He was hugging her, to begin with. When she wriggled her body against his like that, it felt like a matchstick with ten times the sulfur was scraped against a dry matchbox…
Chi Yang instantly felt his body react.
Before he could reject her, Zhong Nuannuan said softly, “I’m really powerful! Just trust me this once! If you’re really worried, you can be the man behind me… Wait, I mean support from the back! If I’m aggrieved, you can always stand up for me, okay?”
She nearly said the wrong thing. Zhong Nuannuan bit her tongue gently and blinked her eyes, looking hopeful.
Although his worries were indescribable, Chi Yang eventually relented.
That was because he could not deal with his wife’s disappointed expression.
“Okay. Then, you have to promise me that if they retaliate and hurt you, I’ll take over in this matter.”
“Okay, okay, okay! I agree! I promise!” Zhong Nuannuan nodded vigorously.
“Then, tell me what you’ve found out about your mother. Your mother must have family, too. I’ll help you find out more about your maternal family.”
“No need. I already know who my maternal family is.”
Chi Yang was slightly stunned. “So fast?”
“Mmhmm.”
“Then, do you plan on acknowledging them?”
Zhong Nuannuan shook her head. “There aren’t plans for that for now. We’ll see how it goes!”
Knowing that Nuannuan would only have chosen that because she might be disappointed in her family, Chi Yang kissed her forehead as his heart ached for her. “No matter what decision you make, I’ll support you. No matter what you do, just know that I’m behind you, that’s enough.”
Nuannuan looked at Chi Yang, whose eyes were filled with determination.
“Yes, I will. After all, you’re my future husband! You’re my dearest person and my strongest backer. If I face any difficulties, I’ll definitely come to you.”
After receiving a warm acknowledgment and affirmation from Nuannuan, Chi Yang finally felt relieved. However, in his heart, he decided to quickly figure out the identity of Nuannuan’s maternal family so that he could be her backer.
“Go take a shower, I’ll clean up this place.”
Zhong Nuannuan, ‘…We’re already at this point of the conversation. Why didn’t he ask the most important question?’
Seeing that Zhong Nuannuan did not move and was still looking at him in surprise, Chi Yang, who had just gotten up, sat back down.
“What’s wrong?”
“Big Brother Chi Yang, don’t you have any questions for me?”
What a straightforward girl…
Chi Yang sighed.
He did not ask that on purpose!
“Ask what?” Chi Yang asked the obvious.
“Ask me why I investigated this so thoroughly.”
