Back upstairs, Nian Junting rummaged through the bedroom for Luosangâs belongings. When she had lived there, he had bought her many things. She left those things behind, but took what she had brought there in the first place. What did that mean? What on earth did Leng Shuangwei say to her?
The next day, he went downstairs with a pair of huge dark circles under his eyes. Sister Lan was making breakfast. She also had dark circles under her eyes. When serving breakfast, she found Nian Junting sitting in a chair in a daze. His face was unshaven, and his hair was disheveled.
âYoung Master, did you stay up all night?â asked Sister Lan.
âYeah. I thought about human traffickers, so I couldnât sleep,â said a tired Nian Junting. âWhen I was in the army, I once encountered some cross-border human traffickers. Is there a chance that Luosang might run into those people?â
Sister Lan took out her phone and said, âRelax. Sangsang messaged me this morning. She asked me to tell you that sheâs on vacation. She wants to go out of the city, as she hasnât had any quiet time alone in a long while. Sheâll come back later to solve the problem of her relationship with you.â
Nian Junting hurriedly took Sister Lanâs phone to read Luosangâs messages. A while later, he raised his head and asked, âSolve the problem of her relationship with me? What does that mean? Is she breaking up with me?â
Sister Lan didnât say anything. Could she say, âI guess so?â Would she be fired if she said that?
Nian Junting asked another question, âAnd, what did she mean by having some quiet time alone? Did I never give her quietness?â
When did you ever give anyone quietness? thought Sister Lan.
As Nian Junting started typing on Sister Lanâs phone, Sister Lan hurriedly said to him, âSangsang has told me not to let you use my WeChat to message her.â
âWhen did she say that? I didnât see it.â Nian Junting scrolled the chat records.
âI deleted that message before showing you the record. I didnât want you to feel ashamed,â said Sister Lan helplessly. âI didnât know that you had really done that. Last time, when you messaged her with my Wechat account, she knew all along.â
Nian Junting raised his head and asked, âWhen did that happen? Why canât I remember any of it?â
âNo, it never happened,â said Sister Lan.
Nian Junting snorted, gave the phone back to Sister Lan, then stood up and left.
...
When driving the off-road vehicle out of the villa, Nian Junting thought for a second, then turned around and headed to Feng Geâs place to ask about Luosangâs whereabouts.
When he arrived, Feng Ge was straightforward with him. âI wouldnât tell you even if I knew. Luosang never visited me again after she left. You think I donât know that itâs because you wouldnât allow her to come here? You deserve this. Do you think that youâre allowed to bully Sangsang because her father is in prison?â
âI didnât bully her, and I didnât forbid her to come here. She doesnât want to visit you,â Nian Junting argued.
âForget it. Shengxu said that youâre bossy,â said Feng Ge.
After making Nian Junting leave in anger, Feng Ge immediately informed her son about what had happened. âHereâs your chance. Sangsang has left Nian Junting. Just go and pursue her.â
âMom...â
âYou think I have no idea that youâre into her?â said Feng Ge impatiently. âYou donât even know how to pursue a girl. Learn from Nian Junting. Heâs shameless. Last time, Sangsang lived with us for so many days, but you never seized the opportunity.â
âMom, she doesnât feel that way about me. I was afraid that if I got too forward, she might not even want to be friends with me anymore,â said Chi Shengxu helplessly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYouâll never have her if you arenât forward. You see, there is a problem between her and Nian Junting now. As her good friend, you should grasp this chance and become her new boyfriend,â said Feng Ge.
âMom, youâre sly,â said Chi Shengxu.
âYou hold your happiness in your own hands, â Feng Ge replied. âAnyway, I like Sangsang. When she lived with us, I found her so thoughtful. No other 23-year-old girls are as thoughtful as she is.â
