1929 No Longer Worried
A few minutes later.
He maintained the last trace of clarity in his mind. He moved his thin lips away slightly and whispered, panting, âNian Nian, stop fooling around.â
He wasnât that gentlemanly.
In the past, he had encountered some occasions where someone would arrange for some pure or beautiful girls, but he always rejected them.
It wasnât until Qiao Nian appeared that he understood that it was because none of those people were her.
If it were her, the self-control he was so proud of would collapse at once.
Qiao Nian didnât let go. At this moment, she was looking at him with a pair of clear eyes. His figure was reflected in them. âIâm a very lazy person. Iâm too lazy to just like someone. Iâm too lazy to start a relationship again, so⦠you can wait for me a little longer.â
Ye Wangchuan could only hear his heart beating.
Soon.
It was very stable.
He was no longer so worried about losing her.
Qiao Nian took another deep breath and said softly, âIâm almost of legal age. Iâm still a year away.â
She was still a year away from turning 20. Previously, she didnât care about this, but Ye Wangchuan did. She had considered this before.
âA year will pass very quickly⦠in the blink of an eye.â Qiao Nian pursed her lips and looked down at him. After a moment of silence, she said seriously, âIâll be responsible.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The first few sentences had actually already made Ye Wangchuanâs eardrums ring. In her last sentence, she was still discussing âresponsibilityâ with him seriously.
He suddenly gave up. He felt that he was very stupid to be worried about losing her. He was like a hothead. He was not as mature as her.
The stone weighing on his heart disappeared. After tidying the girlâs hair, he sat back down and returned to his usual lazy and noble self. He was also in the mood to joke with her. âI remember you saying previously that youâre already an adult.â
Qiao Nian wasnât afraid at all. She looked up and replied expressionlessly, âI remember someone telling me that I was still too young. He gave me milk every day.â
Ye Wangchuan heated a cup of milk for her every day.
For a moment, she suspected that his words meant something else!
âOkay.â Qiao Nian picked up the baseball cap he had taken off previously and put it back on. At the same time, she pulled it down to cover her face. Then, she adjusted her seat back and closed her eyes to rest.
Her lips still hurt a little.
If she didnât seize the opportunity to rest now, Qin Si would probably chase after her and ask questions when she returned to the residence.
She might as well take the time to sleep.
Qiao Nian had thought that she wouldnât be able to sleep, because she didnât sleep much to begin with. It was easy for her to wake up.
Unexpectedly, along the way, she was able to calm down and rest. She quickly fell into a light sleep.

The next day.
Qiao Nian reported to the research institute early in the morning.
She was a newcomer who had been recruited after the assessment, so someone specially took her through various procedures.
Soon, Qiao Nian finished all the procedures.
Right on the heels of that, she was brought to a large laboratory.
There were many people in the laboratory.
As soon as Qiao Nian appeared, the busy people stopped what they were doing and looked in the girlâs direction curiously.
