The manager paused briefly, then nodded.
The windows of the rooms on the second floor were facing the lake, were all well illuminated with great views and the furniture was made from mahogany. After entering the room, Luosang went straight to the bed, falling asleep.
Nian Junting walked to the bed, bent over and took off her shoes.
Afterward, Luosang immediately rolled into the quilt.
âDonât roll,â Nian Junting reminded her, âDonât hurt my precious little princess.â
âYour queen is hungry,â Luosang stuck her head out of the quilt, âI suddenly want something spicy.â
âSpicy?â Nian Junting said standing up, âAll right, Iâll order some food for you.â
He then called the restaurant himself and told the chef to prepare something spicy. It wasnât mealtime, and Nian Junting wanted the food to be delivered fast. Therefore, the restaurant didnât have too many options. At last, they made Yunnan rice noodles for Luosang.
Ten minutes later, someone knocked on the door.
Nian Junting opened the door and saw a waiter standing with a cart. âMister, this is your Yunnan rice noodle. Weâve also brought you some special Yunan snacks.â
âBring them in,â Nian Junting said.
At that moment, the door across the hall suddenly opened. Yi Jingxi walked out, wearing a black suit. When he made eye-contact with Nian Junting, he tightened his handsome face and wore a cold and stiff expression.
âMr. Yi, so you live across the hall,â Nian Junting said with a faint smile, âWhat a coincidence.â
âMr. Nian, you have become a shareholder of this film and television base. What can be more coincidental than that?â Yi Jingxi closed the door behind him and couldnât help but look into Nian Juntingâs room.
He could only see the waiter placing the snacks on the table, one after another. A bowl of steaming rice noodle was also on that table.
Nian Junting glanced back at the room, then laughed, âLuo is hungry, so I ordered some food for her.â
Yi Jingxiâs heart sank. Earlier, he heard that Luosang had broken up with Nian Junting. Wasnât that real?
At that time, he had a flash of hope.
Why were they together again?
Hearing Luosangâs name. Yi Jingxi felt it hard to breathe.
He wanted so desperately to see her.
However, he was afraid that he might see her and Nian Junting together like a sweet couple.
âDoesnât she need to go to school?â
âShe asked for leave,â Nian Junting responded with a gentle and helpless tone, âThereâs no other way. She needs to see me every day now, or sheâd feel insecure. Women. She cares too much about me, so she always wants to follow me everywhere. Sheâs afraid that she might lose me. I guess you donât know how that feels like.â
Yi Jingxiâs face instantly paled.
He knew exactly how that felt like. Luosang used to follow him everywhere.
Back then, he was using her. On one hand, he felt annoyed by her, but on the other hand, he was obsessed with it.
The waiter served the food, then pushed the cart out of the room.
Nian Junting smiled again and said, âMr. Yi, Iâll talk to you at dinner. I need to spend some time with Luo now, or she might get unhappy again. Sheâs getting more and more short-tempered lately.â
Nian Junting then closed the door.
Yi Jingxi gazed at the closed door.
He even wanted to kick that door open.
But, what should he do after that?
He felt that his life was no better than death.
In the room, once Nian Junting tuned around, Luosang sat up in bed, staring at him in a meaningful way, saying, âWhen did I follow you everywhere? Why would I feel insecure if I canât see you every day?â
Nian Junting carried the rice noodles to her while responding calmly, âYou misheard me. I said that I want to follow you everywhere and that Iâll feel insecure if I canât see you every day.â
Luosang felt speechless.
He was making up obvious lies again. Did he think she was deaf?
