Chapter 1171: It Was the First Time Someone Treasured Her Whole-heartedly
Fang Qi honestly didn’t know what to say.
He didn’t know him well?
He was the one who encouraged Jiang Yuning to pursue her yesterday, and he was the one who told him that she didn’t have a boyfriend. But now, he didn’t know him well. That was so hurtful.
“Professor Jiang, this is not good. You didn’t say that you don’t know me well yesterday when you asked me questions about Nian Xi. I’m Nian Xi’s colleague. If you want to pursue her, you might be able to learn a lot about her from me.”
‘Haven’t you heard that if you want to win a girl’s heart, you need to start from the people around her?’ he thought.
Jiang Yuning, on hearing that, had his cheeks reddened. He quickly glanced at Nian Xi, then stuttered, “When… when did I say that I… want to pursue her?”
His voice grew lower and lower, as he felt so embarrassed.
Nian Xi looked at him. ‘He probably has the best skin among all men that I’ve seen. It’s always so obvious when he blushes,’ she thought.
Fang Qi raised his eyebrows and said, “Oh, so you’re not pursuing her. Why did you bring food to her then?”
“Because… she’s my friend,” said Jiang Yuning awkwardly.
Fang Qi nodded and said, “Nian Xi, he said that he’s only your friend.”
“No…” Jiang Yuning became anxious. That was not good. What if Nian Xi thinks that he only wants to be her friend?
“Alright, don’t you have work to do?” Nian Xi couldn’t bear watching that, “Have you found the murder weapon yet?”
Fang Qi tittered, “You don’t want me to bully him, do you? Alright, I’m going to look for the weapon.”
Finished talking, he turned and left.
“Thank you for the food,” Nian Xi took over the food and said, “Fang Xi likes to make jokes. Don’t mind him.”
Jiang Yuning felt a little frustrated, as he felt that he had said something wrong.
“Xi…”
“Why is your hair so messy?” Nian Xi interrupted him and said, “Didn’t you brush your hair this morning?”
Jiang Yuning paused briefly, then replied with, “Messy? You styled my hair last night. I think it’s good.”
Nian Xi widened her mouth in shock, “You didn’t brush your hair again because I turned it into this yesterday?”
Jiang Yuning dropped his head, dragged a lock of his hair embarrassedly said, “I like what you did with it. I didn’t want to change it. I even slept carefully last night.”
Nian Xi had such a complicated feeling when she heard that. She didn’t know what to say.
She was in a good mood last night, and she rubbed his hair on purpose. He didn’t blame her for that but kept that messy hair instead.
How silly. Nian Xi honestly didn’t know what to say about it. She even felt a hint of heartache.
Before, she always treasured Feng Ji Chuan like he was the most important person in the world. It was the very first time someone treasured her whole-heartedly.
Didn’t he think about what other people might think when they saw him walking on the street with such messy hair?
Nian Xi took out a hairbrush from her bag, said to him, “Lower your head, let me brush your hair.”
“Em,” Jiang Yuning obediently bent over. Nian Xi could do whatever she likes to his hair.
Nian Xi brushed his flyaway hair straight lock by lock. Jiang Yuning closed his eyes, feeling her gentle and soothing moves.
If only she could always brush his hair for him.
Nian Xi looked at his beautiful lips and long and thick eyelashes. He seemed to be enjoying the hair-brushing, as much as how Jiang-jiang enjoyed her petting.
He was much more handsome than Jiang-jiang, though.
A person was certainly different from a dog.
Having a dog could not save her from the loneliness of being single, after all.
