Jing Tian and I went to see Gu Nian.
Gu Nian had lost a lot of weight, but he still looked good.
We sat down, and he ordered someone to bring me fruit tea, pudding, and cake.
Jing Tian coughed lightly. âMaster Liu, youâre so kind, but Iâm still here.â
Gu Nian said plainly, âIâll always be patient and kind with Nanxing.â
âGu Nian, thatâs too much!â Jing Tianâs tone was unfriendly, but his expression didnât change.
Gu Nian chuckled. âIs that too much? I donât think so.â
I took a sip of the fruit tea and praised, âNot bad.â
Gu Nian was delighted. He pushed the cake and pudding towards me. âTry it and see if theyâre good. If you like them, Iâll have my people send some to you every day.â
I shook my head with the cake in my mouth. âNo, no, no. If you do that, Iâd have to look at Jing Tianâs cold face every day.âI spoke in all seriousness and didnât even look at Jing Tian.
Gu Nian smiled. âLet him stew in his coldness. He wonât stop you from eating. I can guarantee that.â
I nodded. âOf course, even if he wronged himself, he wouldnât deprive anything of me.â
Gu Nianâs smile froze for a moment before he sighed. âNanxing, what kind of virtue did he accumulate in his past life that heâd gain your protection so much in this life?â
I swallowed the cake and took another sip of the fruit tea. It was refreshing. âHe saved my life in my past life, so I have to pay him back in this life,â I said in all seriousness.
Actually, what I said was the truth. It was just that I was the only one who knew the truth.
Gu Nian sighed again and glanced at Jing Tian, who was obviously very pleased with himself. âI think I lost because of the order. If I had met Nanxing earlier, you wouldnât have been involved!â
Jing Tian couldnât hide his smile. âWrong! First, I have already met her in our previous lives. Second, when I first met her in this life, she was only five. You couldnât be earlier than me. Besides, you didnât lose because of the order. Itâs just that youâre not fated. You have no choice but to be envious!â
Gu Nian gritted her teeth and glared at Jing Tian. âIt doesnât matter. This life is still so long! Iâm still waiting. If you let Nanxing down in the slightest, Iâll be ready to swoop in!â
Jing Tian frowned and said impatiently, âGive up. Youâll never have such an opportunity in this life!â
âThen in the next life! Iâll queue up earlier!â Gu Nian wouldnât put it to rest.
Jing Tian was annoyed. âGu Nian! Are you done? Let me tell you, Nanxing and I have been together for countless lifetimes, and youâd never have the chance! Move out of the way!â
Gu Nian didnât back down. âThatâs not up to you! Itâs my freedom to wait for her!â
I waved my hand in front of the two of them and suggested, âWhy donât you two go out and fight?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Both of them glanced at me. They loosened their collars and stopped talking.
I placed the cup of fruit tea heavily on the table and scolded, âYou two are almost 70 years old when added together. Please, can you not be so childish? Am I not in the room? Can I be shared like this?â I glared at both of them. âYouâre too childish to be reliable!â
The two of them glared at each other. Gu Nian smiled and turned his head away. Jing Tian turned his head and ate the cake on my fork. He said proudly, âHmm, it tastes pretty good!â
Really, a childish person!
Gu Nian coughed lightly. I quickly said, âYouâre about to become the president. Stop playing around!â
Donât be a child anymore.?I really couldnât stand the two of them!
Gu Nian glared at Jing Tian.
