Chapter 1517: Xixi, I’m Hungry
Nian Junting’s throat felt dry, and he was at a loss for words.
At that moment, he admired Jiang Yuning.
Perhaps Nian Xi did not pick the wrong man this time.
…
The car gradually came to a stop at the parking lot in the villa, and Nian Junting said with a mix of emotions, “I’ll tell Nian Xi about you being an undercover after you leave. She won’t agree if she knows about this in advance.”
Nian Junting knew Nian Xi’s temperament too well. She always took Jiang Yuning under her wing, so she probably would not be able to bear to let him suffer from any hardships.
Jiang Yuning merely nodded his head.
…
As they entered the villa, Jiang-jiang ran towards them and barked. However, Nian Xi remained seated on the sofa with her back faced towards them, and she ate her fruits without turning around.
She was quite annoyed because she felt that no matter what the reason was, it was unacceptable for Jiang Yuning to not contact her for one whole day and night. He did not even answer his call, which caused her to worry dreadfully. He never considered her perspective at all.
“Xixi…” Jiang Yuning quickly walked over. When he saw the fruits in her hands, he suddenly felt hungry and his stomach growled.
Nian Xi threw him a cold look before turning back and continuing to watch the television, as though he was transparent like air.
Little Apple crawled across the sofa and sprawled across Nian Xi’s shoulders, before saying in a childlike voice, “Auntie, I want to eat… the orange.”
“There, there,” Nian Xi said. She then peeled a slice of orange and fed it to him. Little Apple smacked his lips, savoring the fruit.
On the other hand, Jiang Yuning watched him in envy. He also wanted Nian Xi to feed him an orange.
“Xixi, are you still angry with me?” Jiang Yuning asked in a fawning manner as he sat down beside her.
“I’m not angry,” Nian Xi replied, but her eyes never looked away from the television. “You can come and go as you please. It’s fine even if you don’t ever hit me up again or answer my calls. Brother, why did you bring him over?”
Nian Junting snorted silently, and he felt like cursing her for her hypocrisy.
“Little Apple, let’s head outside with Daddy to look at the doggy, alright?” Luosang carried Little Apple and dragged Nian Junting out.
After all of them were gone, Jiang Yuning quickly squatted down and grabbed hold of Nian Xi’s hand. He then laid his cheeks on her tiny hands and said, “Xixi, don’t be mad at me anymore…”
“Jiang Yuning, stop bothering me!” Nian Xi retracted her hand in anger. “I understand if you don’t want to take care of me since you’ve been doing so everyday for such a long time. If you’re out of patience and want to take a break, you can just let me know about it. But was it necessary to ignore my calls? You didn’t even reply to my WeChat messages. Do you want to break up with me? You can say it to my face if you want to. I don’t like to beat around the bush. Don’t give excuses like losing track of time because you’ve been performing experiments in the laboratory. I’ve never seen any other scientist behave like this…”
She was not a superficial woman who would easily succumb to the seduction of beauty.
She forcefully shoved him away and chided, “Jiang Yuning, answer me properly! Keep your hands off me!”
“I didn’t… Xixi, I’m hungry. I haven’t eaten any food for a day and night.”
“Serves you right for not eating!” Nian Xi said as she glared at him viciously. “I didn’t stuff your mouth to stop you from eating. You can stop playing the victim now.”
“Xixi, I couldn’t eat,” Jiang Yuning said while shaking his head. “Other people are forcing me to break up with you, but I’m unwilling to! I felt miserable, so I hid in my room and neither ate nor drank anything.”
