Thankfully, Jiang Yuning never listened to other people talking.
He failed to understand the hidden meaning of Fang Qiâs words and kept serving fruit to Nian Xi.
âIâm good,â Nian Xi said. âMr. Jiang, for your safety, we need to put a few surveillance cameras and covert listening devices on your personal belongings that youâll bring to Paris.â
Jiang Yuning nodded.
âPlease let us know if we caused you any inconvenience,â Nian Xi reminded him.
Jiang Yuning shook his head.
âYou can go and rest now. Weâll do the rest.â Nian Xi stood up.
Jiang Yuningâs mood was up as well.
At first, Nian Xi thought that he would go to work. However, he followed behind them when Uncle Han guided them to his bedroom.
Zhan Hong and the others didnât say anything about it. After all, Jiang Yujing had the right to know where the devices would be.
As the devices were installed, Zhan Hong talked to Jiang Yuning about the security plan. However, after a long speech, he found that Jiang Yuning wasnât listening at all. With no other choice, he asked Nian Xi to repeat it to him.
At lunchtime, the chef served Chinese dishes, including spicy boiled pork slices, sliced beef and potato, and pork stew.
Nian Xi was surprised by the rich lunch.
Jiang Yuning seemed to have memorized what she said last time.
While she was thinking, Jiang Yuning handed her a note—âDo you like the food?â
Nian Xi nodded.
Jiang Yuning grinned. His eyes even glowed.
âJust eat.â Nian Xi picked up her chopsticks and started eating. She had too much fruit in the morning, so she only ate a little for lunch. The three male officers had quite a lot too.
Jiang Yuning didnât touch the meat, but sat quietly beside her, eating the beans and cabbage.
Looking at him, Zhan Hong felt very sorry. He couldnât help but say, âNian Xi, pick some meat for Mr. Jiang.â
âHe doesnât eat meat.â Once Nian Xi explained, Jiang Yuning turned to her and opened his delicate pink lips, waiting for her to feed him.
Nian Xi didnât know what to do.
âJust feed him,â said Zhan Hong.
Nian Xi wanted to stomp her foot on Jiang Yuningâs. He always made her feel embarrassed. With anger, she picked a spicy pork slice and put it into Jiang Yuningâs mouth.
âWait, Mr. Jiang canât eat spicy food,â Uncle Han said, but it was already too late.
Jiang Yuning closed his mouth and chewed the pork. In the next second, his entire face turned red, and his eyes became watery, as if raindrops had come from his eyes. Soon, his lips became red as well. This made him look even prettier than a girl. Looking at him, the others were stunned.
âJust spit it out.â Nian Xi was a little stunned too. Looking at the pitiful Jiang Yuning, she really wanted to pet him.
Jiang Yuning shook his head. He wanted to find his pen, but the hot flavor in his mouth was torturing him. While gasping for air, he said, âYou fed it to me. I donât want to spit it out.â
He swallowed the meat, then quickly stood up and walked to the bathroom.
He had no idea that what he said to Nian Xi made her want to look for a hole to crawl in.
Huo Lizhi snorted and said, âAnd you said that he doesnât like you. Isnât that obvious enough?â
Nian Xi couldnât stand his gaze any longer, so she argued with him, âWhen did I say that he doesnât like me? Youâve been saying that to yourself the whole time. I just didnât like your disdainful attitude. Besides, whatâs so wrong about the fact that he likes me? Iâm pretty and capable. Isnât that normal for guys to like me?â
âYou...â
âAll right. Stop.â Zhan Hong glared at Huo Lizhi, then said to him, âNian Xi is right. Sheâs single, so is Mr. Jiang. No rule says they canât be together.â After a short pause, he said to Nian Xi in earnest, âYou need to control yourself. Donât throw him into your bed.â
