Luosang was so embarrassed that she even wanted to kill herself.
âItâs alright, itâs alright, you eat it,â one of her colleagues hurriedly said. âYou worked the most, so youâve consumed the most energy. You should eat more than we do.â
Nian Junting put his arm around her shoulders. âLetâs go. You can eat on our way back, and then go to sleep when we get home.â
They got into the car. There were only a few cars on the road, as it was already midnight. Luosang opened the boxes. There were steamed buns with custard and egg yolk filling, chicken feet, and a rice noodle roll. The dessert was chocolate cake with apricot jam.
Recently, as Nian Junting brought food to her almost every single day, she was quite touched, indeed. After all, he had been trying pretty hard to surprise her with all different types of food.
âNext time when you bring food to me, instead of bringing it upstairs, maybe you should just leave it in the car. Itâs quite embarrassing that we let my colleagues see the food without sharing it with them,â Luosang said helplessly.
Nian Junting paused for a second, as he didnât understand why. âWhy is that embarrassing? Iâve never thought about sharing my food with others when I eat in my office. They can ask their boyfriends to bring them food too, if they want some.â
âAre you the same as us? Youâre the CEO. Itâs a normal thing for people to share food with their colleagues,â Luosang said while eating the rice noodle roll. âItâs midnight. Actually, you donât need to stay up so late with me every day to pick me up, as you need to go to work early in the morning. This is too exhausting for you.â
Nian Junting gave her a sad glance and said, âBut I get even more tired when I canât see you.â
Luosang felt sweet. In fact, many other female voice actors were jealous of her for having such a great boyfriend. None of their boyfriends came to pick them after work every day. Some of their boyfriends only showed up a few times, and they werenât as handsome and rich as Nian Junting was.
âYou have classes every morning at about eight oâclock. Can you cope with it?â Nian Junting continued, âYou actually donât need to go to classes every single day, as some classes arenât really important. Besides, you are already very good at voice acting, and you have officially started your career already, so you donât need to go to school every day. After all, hasnât Yan Su been asking for leave a lot recently?â
âWeâre different. She needs to travel all over the country, but my job is located in Xia City. I wonât miss a class unless I have to. Itâs always good to learn more.â Luosang took a sip of the juice and said, âWeâve been learning acting lately. I want to learn more about it. Although Iâm not going to be an actor, we can still use some acting skills when doing voice acting.â
Nian Junting frowned. He did want his girlfriend to be more knowledgeable, but it could also give him a headache when she worked too hard.
âWhen will you stop being busy?â he asked.
âIn about half a month,â she answered.
âThe third day of next month, can you ask for leave that night?â Nian Junting said, âThat day is my grandmaâs birthday. I want to take you to see her.â
Luosang hurriedly swallowed the juice in her mouth. Her eyes popped open wide as she stared at Nian Junting. Nian Qingyun didnât like her. So now, she felt that going to the Nian family was no different from going to an extremely dangerous place.
âI was going to take you home at New Yearâs, but we were having a fight at that time.â Nian Junting continued while driving, âAnyhow, you need to meet the rest of my family sooner or later. Donât worry, my grandparents arenât like my father.â
Luosang thought for a moment but still shook her head. âEven though weâre going to get married, we need to wait at least until Iâve graduated and found a stable job. We can do that next year or the year after that. I donât want to meet your other family so early. At least for now, your father is not going to accept me. We may as well wait for one or two years. Iâll meet your family when my father is proved to be innocent. By then, Iâll be able to face them with no shame. Didnât you say that itâll only take half a year for us to find those people who made false statements and framed my father?â
