Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Chapter 1237: Don’t! How Can You Do This to Professor Jiang?

“Mr. Jiang, maybe you shouldn’t take your father’s treasures again. He really loves those daisies,” said Uncle Han to Jiang Yuning with a bitter face.

“I will get Nian Xi anything she likes.” Jiang Yuning shook his head.

Uncle Han wiped the sweat off his forehead. Thankfully, Jiang Yuning was only a scientist. If he was a king, he might give away his kingdom.

…

On Friday, before Nian Xi got off work, Cheng Jing suddenly pulled on her shoulder and said to her, “Look at that handsome man! Oh my, he’s so handsome!”

“You are a married woman. Is it all right for you to be so excited when seeing a pretty guy?” Nian Xi raised her head. She was surprised to see the boy who was standing before the police station, looking around.

Lately, the air temperature had reached twenty. Jiang Yuning was wearing a pair of jeans, a denim jacket, and a white T-shirt underneath; he looked as clean as a college student.

He was handsome indeed.

Nian Xi nodded in agreement and said, “I decided to hit on him.”

Cheng Jing stopped short, then said to her, “No. You already have Professor Jiang. Leave that pretty boy alone.”

“I cannot resist the temptation from that pretty boy. Watch me. I’ll be holding his hand in five minutes.” With a smile, Nian Xi walked away.

On the outside, Fan Yi went up to Jiang Yuning and said, “Professor Jiang, do you remember me? I’ve been in your lab.”

Jiang Yuning turned his eyes to her. He didn’t know she was at his side. “Miss, do you know where Nian Xi is? I’m her… I’m her boyfriend.”

He blushed when he said the last words. After all, it was the first time he said that to one of Nian Xi’s colleagues. He was so nervous.

“Are you and Nian Xi together?” Fan Yi was so disappointed. She remembered Jiang Yuning sent Nian Xi flowers but didn’t know that they were already together.

“Yeah, he’s my boyfriend.” Nian Xi showed up behind Jiang Yuning with a smile and said, “Are we a good match?”

“Yes. You two made a lovely couple.” Fan Yi had no other choices but to walk away. Professor Jiang was so handsome. Why wasn’t he, her boyfriend? Sigh.

Nian Xi glanced at Fan Yi’s back, then gave Jiang Yuning a meaningful smile and said, “I didn’t know that you were so popular. Did you have any suitors before?”

“I don’t know,” said Jiang Yuning with confusion.

“What do you mean you don’t know? Don’t you know if any girl has pursued you?” Nian Xi folded her arms.

“I really don’t know. I only know that some girls used to talk to me about science,” Jiang Yuning answered honestly.

Nian Xi understood how absent-minded he could be sometimes. He rarely listened to other people. Indeed, he might not be aware that some girls were probably trying pretty hard to pursue him. It provided her, his girlfriend, a sense of security.

“Give me your hand,” Nian Xi said to him smilingly.

Jiang Yuning did what she said. She suddenly held his hand and stroked the back of it with her thumb.

“Xi, you…” Jiang Yuning’s cheeks reddened.

“What? You are mine now. Am I not allowed to hold your hand?” Nian Xi said.

Jiang Yuning lowered his head and said in a low voice, “You are. You are allowed to touch any part of my body.

After saying that, he walked closer to her and looked at her in the eyes. His eyes were sparkling.

“Here, let me introduce you to one of my colleagues.” Nian Xi held his hand and walked toward Cheng Jing, who at the moment, was dumbfounded.

Cheng Jing hurriedly pulled Nian Xi to the side and whispered to her, “Nian Xi, don’t do this! How can you do this to Professor Jiang?”
