Chapter 1273: Xi, Are You Jealous?
Jiang Yuning blinked. A few seconds later, he shook his head.
“Why?”
Nian Xi was unhappy. It was her first time being rejected by him.
“I don’t like being a matchmaker.” Jiang Yuning shook his head. “I don’t want to stick my nose in other people’s business.”
“But Fang Qi is really nice. Think about it. He put in a good word for you in front of me,” Nian Xi said. “If she’s single too, I think we can introduce them to each other. They can always be friends. The social circle of scientists can be rather narrow. You don’t meet a lot of people, so maybe she needs us to introduce her to new friends.”
Jiang Yuning furrowed his delicate brows. At last, he dropped his head and said, “Let me ask her.”
He spent a short while on his phone. A couple of minutes later, he said, “Xinxin said no.”
“Xinxin?” Nian Xi raised her brows.
“Hm.” Jiang Yuning didn’t detect the weird look in Nian Xi’s eyes.
“Do you guys know each other well? You called her in such an intimate way.” Nian Xi curved her lips downward. “Are you really just work pals?”
“I’ve called her that since we were little.” Jiang Yuning’s innocent eyes were filled with confusion. “Is something wrong with that?”
“So you have a childhood sweetheart too?” The longer the conversation lasted, the more information Nian Xi got out of him. She wasn’t happy to know about it.
“You’ve never mentioned that to me,” she said.
“That’s not important. She’s not my ex-girlfriend.” Jiang Yuning started to set up the robot.
Nian Xi blamed herself. She should have guessed it. Whoever made such a cute and exquisite robot must be a girl. Jiang Yuning’s friend was so capable. What on earth did that girl have in her head? Nian Xi believed the girl must be much, much smarter than herself.
“Does she like you?”
“Why would she like me?” Jiang Yuning was more and more confused. “Xi, are you jealous?”
Of course, she wouldn’t admit it.
“Eh-hem. How is that possible?” she said with a serious face. “I have male friends, like Fang Qi and Xiao Si. I’ve known them for many years, so I understand.”
“Hm.” Jiang Yuning nodded. “Xi, what do you want for dinner?”
“How about eggplant stew and garlic pork ribs? That’s all we got.” Nian Xi glanced at the robot’s introduction on her phone.
“Okay.” Jiang Yuning nodded.
At dinner time, the robot was cooking in the kitchen, while Nian Xi was watching. The robot really cooked like a chef, and the food didn’t look bad. At last, the robot cleaned the top of the kitchen range.
Nian Xi couldn’t help but take a picture of the food and show it off in her WeChat moment—’Ningning gave me a robot chef as a gift. The food is amazing.’
The robot chef was so special and impressive that she got hundreds of ‘likes’ in a short time.
Luosang left her comment—’I am so, so jealous of you.’
Xiao Si—’Damn! Seriously? Can I have one?’
Murong Cheng—’Amazing.
Even Mommy is jealous of you.’
Grandma Nian—’My future grandson-in-law is wonderful. Grandma wants to try the food.’
Yan Su—’It’s so nice to be the girlfriend of a scientist.’
Nian Qingyun—’I don’t think the food tastes good.’
Nian Junting replied to Luosang—’Do you have a problem with Sister Lan’s food? Sister Lan wants you to come home. She needs to talk to you.’
Mo Liuxi—’My food is way better than this.’
Many people left their comments under the post. Feeling the attention and jealousy that came to her wave by wave, Nian Xi was really happy. She invited everybody to come to her place for a meal.
