Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Shut up!”
As soon as the words “breaking off the engagent” were ntioned, Lu An’s anger flared up. This person wasn’t even worthy of ntioning Jin Nian.
Just as he spoke, Jin Nian’s voice ca from inside the room.
“Who’s here?”
It was obvious that she had not woken up yet. Her voice was a little weak and delicate.
Naturally, Lu An couldn’t bring up Jiang Qingchi in front of Jin Nian to ruin her mood. He replied, “It’s property managent. They need to pay the fees. Honey, you should go back to sleep.”
“Oh, okay.”
Jiang Qingchi looked towards the inner room, wanting to catch a glimpse of Jin Nian, but Lu An’s tall figure blocked his line of sight.
After soothing Jin Nian, Lu An turned to look at Jiang Qingchi.
With a bad temperant, Lu An usually only displayed his good side in front of Jin Nian and the people around her. Apart from that, no one else received his good graces.
Not to ntion Jiang Qingchi.
Thinking of this, Lu An walked out of the room and gently closed the door. He didn’t want to disturb Jin Nian at the mont.
Lu An turned around and looked at Jiang Qingchi, staring down at him. “What brings you to my wife’s place so late at night?”
Lu An’s imposing presence was hard to ignore. Jiang Qingchi was montarily stunned, unable to respond.
“I’m possessive. 1 don’t like people she doesn’t want to see appearing in front of her,” Lu An said coldly.
Jiang Qingchi felt a surge of defiance. “Who gave you the right to make decisions for her?”
Lu An sneered and took a step forward. He grabbed Jiang Qingchi’s collar, pulled him closer, and stared at him with sharp eyes. “Who? Know your place and status. If 1 want to kill you, it’ll be as easy as stepping on an ant.”
“You!”
“If you want to try that, I’m always here!”
Lu An let go of his collar and gave him a push. Jiang Qingchi stumbled backward, ending up sitting on the ground, looking utterly disheveled.
In an instant, Jiang Qingchi’s mind went blank. He was left completely dumbfounded.
“Still here?”
Jiang Qingchi wasn’t sure what he was thinking, but he left like a zombie.
Watching Jiang Qingchi’s departure, Lu An’s anger hadn’t completely subsided. His expression remained icy.
He was quite angry. What had caught Jin Nian’s interest?
Just because of him, we were separated for so many years. He also wanted to ask why?
Lu An felt rather frustrated. He took out a cigarette to light it, but then he rembered that Jin Nian didn’t like the sll of smoke, so he put it away.
Suddenly, he rembered sothing. In the second sester of their freshman year, he traveled a long distance to see Jin Nian. He had found her standing with Jiang Qingchi under the shade of a tree, enjoying the coolness. He didn’t know what they were talking about, but both had smiles on their faces as if they were a match made in heaven.
Lu An was montarily stunned. He hesitated but eventually called Jin Nian. “Do you miss ? If you do, I’ll co to see you.”
On the other end, Jin Nian was a bit surprised. As if trying to avoid suspicion, she walked to an empty place before speaking. “Lu An, don’t be silly. It’s a long way, and it’ll take quite so ti. Besides, I’m really busy right now. Even if you co, 1 won’t have ti to spend with you.”
“You’re not free?” Lu An self-mockingly chuckled.
He watched them together, chatting and laughing. Although he didn’t know what they were talking about, their happiness was evident. Was that not considered free?
Then, who is standing beside you?
Lu An almost blurted it out, but he stopped himself. He simply replied, “Alright.”
Just as he was about to hang up, Jin Nian spoke up again.
“Lu An, 1 have a question for you.”
“What’s the question?” Lu An was a bit surprised but also intrigued.
“Since you called, 1 want to know, what kind of gifts do guys usually like? It’s my friend’s birthday soon, and I want to buy him a present.”
Lu An remained silent. He felt a mont of confusion, but he collected himself and said, “I don’t know.”
“Okay then.”
Jin Nian didn’t press further and hung up. She returned to Jiang Qingchi’s side, looking at him with admiration. Her eyes seed to reflect the stars in the sky as if she were looking at the whole world.
Today, Jiang Qingchi and Jin Nian accidentally run into each other. They chatted while walking and happened to see him painting.
Jiang Qingchi had a favorable impression of Jin Nian, so he naturally answered her question. Jin Nian’s professional skill was not bad, and Jiang Qingchi could understand her easily.
Their conversation was harmonious. Jin Nian seed to be imrsed in it, her face brimming with the joy of a young girl. It was easy for others to see that she was already moved.
Lu An watched them from afar, not saying a word. It felt as if a piece of his heart was missing.
With Lu An’s personality, he had considered intervening and bringing Jin Nian back to his side.
However, she was Jin Nian, the woman he loved. He didn’t want to force her, so he distanced himself.
If they didn’t have feelings for each other, their mutual dislike would be aningless..
