Chapter 1520: He Wants You to Think of Him as a Hero
Did she hear herself correctly? Was this still her mean and petty husband?
He had been seeing Jiang Yuning as a thorn in his flesh for a long time, but he was now defending him instead.
Nian Xi was speechless for a while as well. Her tears rolled back, and she was not sniffling anymore.
On the contrary, Jiang Yuning looked like his savior had just arrived, and he walked over quickly. He said pitifully, “Brother, what should I do? She won’t listen to me!”
Nian Xi was stunned. From the way he was talking to Nian Junting, it seemed as though they were biologically related to each other. What was going on?
“I’ll talk to her.” Nian Junting patted his shoulder and walked over to the couch. Frowning, he asked, “Nian Xi, can’t you be a little more mature and thoughtful?”
“Why am I the immature one here?” Nian Xi glared at him angrily. “Imagine if Sangsang leaves you for three years, and you can’t even text or call her. No matter how strong I am, I’m not secure enough to go on like this. Three years is a long time, and things and people will change. Either you let me go with him and protect him, or… we can just break up now…”
She was choking up as she finished her sentence. She felt a pang in her chest as if someone was ripping her heart out.
Ever since she broke up with Feng Ji Chuan, she had lost the courage to wait for someone, despite knowing that Jiang Yuning did not mean for any of this to happen.
“I don’t… I don’t want to break up!” Jiang Yuning’s face was pale with terror.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you guys break up,” Nian Junting comforted him gently. He turned to Nian Xi and said sternly, “You were the one who insisted on getting together with him at the beginning. You can’t call for a break up now; Yuning is a great guy. He has a gentle disposition, he’s good to you, he’s handsome, and he’s also a talented scientist. Yuning is a blessing given to you.”
Nian Xi’s eyes nearly popped out of her sockets.
He had come over to fetch Jiang Yuning. He was a completely changed person now.
Look at what he was saying! These were the things that her grandma used to say when she tried to convince Nian Junting to support her relationship with Jiang Yuning.
“Are you really my brother?” Nian Xi was upset. “What did he say to you? Did he brainwash you? I admit that he’s very outstanding in many areas, but I need a companion. I’m not certain that he won’t betray me in the three years we’re apart, and I’m also not certain that he’ll still love me. Well, I guess we can put things on hold for now. We’ll see what happens when he comes back three years later.”
Jiang Yuning looked down at the floor like a sad puppy.
“You can’t say that!” Nian Junting was in a dilemma, and he looked perplexed. Finally, he spoke softly, “I didn’t want to tell you at the beginning because I was scared that I would just worry you unnecessarily, but I have to be frank with you. Once he leaves, he’s not just going to hide, he’s going undercover in TOX. His mission is to figure out the location of the headquarters of the organization, so the police can take down the entire organization in its whole.”
Nian Xi inhaled sharply. Luosang did the same too, and they were both shocked to discover this information. “This… this doesn’t sound too safe,” Nian Xi murmured. “He’s so introverted! It’ll be too dangerous, and he’ll be playing with fire.”
“He’s doing all of these so that he can be with you forever!” Nian Junting was frowning deeply now. “He told me that he wants you to think of him as a hero. You’re right, he’s timid and introverted, but he’s also courageous because of his love for you. I admire him for doing this as well. Nian Xi, how can someone like him change his mind about you after three years?”
Nian Xi was shaken. Nian Junting’s words resonated with her deeply.
In her mind, Jiang Yuning had always been a rose in a greenhouse that she fought hard to protect.
Right now, the fragile flower was saying that he was willing to take on the risks of this dangerous mission to be with her forever. She was terrified and horrified by this thought.
“I’m not agreeing to this!” She was vigorously shaking her head, her body trembling.
