As he watched his sister tell the story animatedly with her hand gestures and dramatic facial expressions, Nian Junting thought about stuffing her mouth shut. He wanted to hear Luosangs voice, not hers.
It sounds like the victim of the story could as well have been the perpetrator? Nian Junting suggested.
We need proof of that though, Luosang was a little uneasy, as the mory of the night in the rain flashed by in her thoughts.
Will you be able to investigate this thoroughly? Nian Junting looked at his little sister sternly, This isnt a small matter. It could affect her future. If word gets to the deans office, then she could even be expelled.
Dont worry about it brother. I have cracked several cases on my own this year. If I really cant find any evidence, then Ill turn to you for help ok? Given your capability, youll surely have a solution anyway, Nian Xi was buttering up to her brother.
Thats true, so he paused as he looked at Luosang with a prideful deanor, No need to put on that sour face of yours anymore. Oh yeah, Nian Xi, didnt you tell you were hungry earlier on? Lets go, we can all have supper together.
When did I tell him that? Nian Xi thought to herself. Isnt this a regular courtship, why did he have to be so pretentious? No wonder he is still single and lonely till today.
Nian Xi couldnt help but roll her eyes at her brother, and she intentionally walked to the front passenger seat. Before she could sit down, her brother was already glaring at her, and cautioning her to act wisely.
Forget it. Ill sit in the back. Its been a while since I cuddled Sisi, Nian Xi scuttled to the backseat.
You can sit in the front, Nian Junting gestured to Luosang with his chin, Sisi is too big, so you wont fit in the back with them.
Alright, Luosang stepped into the car awkwardly.
Looking at the two of them from the back, it suddenly occurred to Nian Xi that her brother had an ulterior motive behind bringing the dog out.
What a sneaky man. He didnt want Luosang to squeeze behind.
As the sedan moved off, Luosang started staring out of the window. Parked on the side of the road was a small, white SUV, and it looked familiar, Isnt that your car, Nian Xi? Didnt you say you didnt drive today?
Luosang rembered Nian Xi driving that sa car at the Tianhu Villa.
You must have rembered wrongly, there are so many people driving the sa model as , Nian Xi denied quickly.
But even the car plate number is the sa one
Nian Xi was flustered. She didnt think her lies would be exposed so quickly, Really, hmm, I guess I did drive my car out today then. Look at my poor mory, I cant even rember driving. I must have been really exhausted from overti work. Look, Im acting delirious.
Nian Junting knew his sister had ssed up, so he added on hastily, So if you did drive to work today, then why did you make co all the way here?
Luosang was quiet; they were putting on quite a show.
Forget it, theres no need to flesh things out. After all, Nian Xi had just helped today, Luosang thought to herself.
Brother, turn left ahead. I know a lot of supper places around here with decent food, Nian Xi was slapping the drivers seat from the back.
Are you talking about the riverside area? Luosang asked.
Youve been there before? The view there at night is impressive too, Nian Xi continued, Im sure my brother has never been before though. He only goes to fancy places. If the dcor didnt cost them hundreds of thousands, then he wouldnt even step into the restaurant.
Luosang was a little stunned, and she recalled the noodle bar Nian Junting brought her.
She looked over at him, the streetlights flashing by were casting srizing shadows on his face.
