Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Feng Ji Chuan stayed silent for a few seconds, then said, “If you think this way, what if she abandoned you someday? She will always have the power of making decisions.”

“Why would she abandon me?” Jiang Yuning didn’t understand.

“Professor Jiang, you are young and innocent. You will only understand how a relationship works when you throw yourself into it. You’ll learn that it’s not as easy as you think it is. Conflict can be easily generated when you spend time together. It’s not easy for two people with completely different personalities to be together.” When he was finished talking, Feng Ji Chuan walked away, leaving Jiang Yuning in deep thought.

Nian Xi returned to find Jiang Yuning laying his upper body on her desk. His cheeks were squeezed against his arms, but still, he looked pretty.

He was staring into the air, probably thinking about some profound scientific theory. She wouldn’t know.

“I’m done. Let’s go.” As Nian Xi grabbed her bag, she saw the files on her desk. “Who brought these here?”

She picked up the files and browsed them. “Isn’t this Li Village’s case? Eh? These look quite thorough. I could really use these. Did Fang Qi bring them here?”

“My rival in love did,” said Jiang Yuning with a muffled voice.

“Feng Ji Chuan?” Nian Xi was surprised.

“So you also think he’s my rival in love?” Jiang Yuning was even more unhappy.

“You two made it so obvious in the courthouse. I’m not stupid,” said Nian Xi.

“He’s so nice to you,” said Jiang Yuning. “He found useful materials for you, while I can’t help at all. All I can do is send you some earthy gifts such as flowers.”

He called a three-million yuan flower an earthy gift…

Nian Xi’s mouth twitched slightly. Jiang Yuning’s sad face reminded her of Jiang-jiang. Every time she refused to hug the dog, the dog would put on a sad face like that. She suddenly started to miss Jiang-jiang. She wasn’t a good owner. She always left him at home.

“You’re distracted.” Jiang Yuning’s face paled. “Are you thinking about your ex-boyfriend?”

Would he be abandoned in just a few days after he just got together with her?”

“No, I’m thinking about Jiang-jiang,” said Nian Xi.

“Who’s Jiang-jiang?” Jiang Yuning stood up in a panic. “Do I have other rivals in love?”

“Jiang-jiang is my dog.” Nian Xi laughed.

“I’m talking to you about Feng Ji Chuan. Why are you thinking about your dog?” Jiang Yuning was confused. “When did you get a dog? Why is the dog named Jiang-jiang? Your dog and I have the same family name.”

“Eh… I didn’t name the dog. My brother did,” said Nian Xi. She couldn’t tell him that he was the reason why the dog was named Jiang-jiang.

“Oh,” Jiang Yuning said. “Thankfully your dog is not named Ning-ning, or you wouldn’t be able to call me that.”

The dog was almost named Ning-ning

Nian Xi put the files that Feng Ji Chuan gave her, into the cabinet and locked them up. No matter why Feng Ji Chuan sorted those files for her, she had to accept them. After all, they were really important.

“Xi, this is for you.” Jiang Yuning suddenly took out a small ring and handed it to Nian Xi. The ring looked like a water drop, sparkling.

Nian Xi was stunned. Was he giving her a diamond ring already?

“Eh… isn’t this a little too soon?”

“Soon?” Jiang Yuning didn’t understand. “I don’t think so.”

“You’re giving me a ring. The diamond looks big,” Nian Xi said in a low voice. “This cost you a fortune, didn’t it?”

“It didn’t cost any money. I made it.” Jiang Yuning smiled. “The diamond is big but is hollow.”
