Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Recalling that Chi Shengxu had just praised her appearance, Luosang rolled her eyes silently as she couldn’t help but compare him with Niang Junting. “Mr. Nian, stop joking on me. I got tanned during work,” she said.

“What kind of work tanned you into this?” He asked.

Luosang pressed her lips together and remained silent.

Nian Junting thought that he shouldn’t ask that question, as it may sound like he was very interested in her life. So, he uncrossed his legs and said flatly, “You know, since you used to be my carer, I wish that you can live a happy life. Men usually don’t like women with dark skin.”

He was trying to tell her that he preferred women with whiter skin.

‘Live a happy life,’ these few words made Luosang pause for a moment. No one had said these words to her for a very long time. The last person who said that to her was her own father.

She wanted to live a happy life, but two people destroyed her home. They had still been trying to give her more harms, as if they could never get tired of that.

Nian Junting waited for a while, but Luosang hadn’t said anything. He looked at her carefully out of the corners of his eyes. Somehow, he sensed a trace of sadness from her which soon disappered. He couldn’t tell if that was real.

“Mr. Nian, thank you,” a while later, Luosang blinked and said with a gentle voice.

Her voice was soft and beautiful, like a feather sweeping across his heart. Looking at her stunning face, Nian Junting pulled the collar of his shirt slightly. He felt that Lu Kang was right about her voice. Her voice was perfect for being a voice actor indeed.

Lu Kang who was sitting beside Nian Junting and listening to his conversation with Luosang, now had a bitter feeling.

‘Didn’t you say that you’ll help me chasing the girl? I’m miles away from Yan Su now. Mr. Nian, you can’t only think about yourself,’ he complained silently.

He sighed and said, “Mr. Nian, since Miss. Yan and her friends are here, how about I go get some popcorns for the ladies?”

“No need, our friend will send us popcorns and drinks later,” Luosang shook her head and said.

Nian Junting frowned and gave Lu Kang a glance. Lu Kang understood his boss’s meaning, so he asked Luosang, “You have another friend here? Who’s that? Isn’t he or she sitting together with you?”

Luosang was with hesitation, but Tang Ning responded hurriedly, “His name is Chi Shengxu, our schoolmate. He played a part in the movie that we’re going to watch later. He invited us here, or we wouldn’t be able to get the tickets. But Luo is the one who he really wanted to invite.”

“Yeah?” Nian Junting nodded and said slowly with a cold voice.

Only he himself knew that a wave of unexplainable anger had risen from his heart.

Chi Shengxu?

Who the hell was Chi Shengxu? Was that man more handsome and capable than him?

He believed that he was better than Chi Shengxu from all aspects, including in bed.

‘She likes me, but refuses to keep a distance from other men. If I didn’t come here, I wouldn’t find out about it. She’s too half-hearted to me,’ he thought.

“Does he like you? If so, he seems to have a poor taste,” the discontent made his words unpleasant to hear.

Luosang couldn’t help but glance at him and said angrily, “Mr. Nian, you better not to fall in me.”

Nian Junting snorted and responded with, “Fall in you? How can that be possible? The fact is the other way round.”

“If you do fall in me one day, I’d certainly mistreat you.” Luosang’s patience has gone out, so she ignored what he said but continued.

Somehow, Nian Junting sensed a coldness from his back. However, he ignored that feeling soon.

Mistreat him? That would be impossible. The only thing that could happen was he mistreating her.

He believed that Luosang had an exaggerated opinion of her own charm, and wondered if that was because she had a suitor now.

“Miss. Luo, Shengxu asked me to bring you some popcorns and drinks,” Huo Fei came over with a good deal of snacks, “But he also told me to tell you not to eat too much, as there’ll be lots of delicious food served in the party at night.”
