Chapter 1274: Chapter 1275: Others Can’t Call
Chiang Xiao didn’t sleep well that night, her vigilance was still very strong, so as soon as she heard a noise, she imdiately rolled over and sat up.
“Kitten, it’s .”
In the darkness, ng Xinian’s slightly hoarse voice erged.
He had hurried over without even bringing a water bottle, drinking just a cup of water using the train conductor’s cup on the train. After sitting on the train for a day and two nights, his throat was practically smoking.
Chiang Xiao was startled and imdiately turned on the bedside lamp.
ng Xinian had just closed the door and was walking toward her.
“Why have you co at this ti?”
ng Xinian walked to the edge of the bed, sat down, and looked at her with a touch of grievance.
“You tell
why, huh?”
Chiang Xiao, still sowhat groggy from sleep, was montarily confused. When she heard the rhetorical question, she froze.
ng Xinian reached out to touch her face but thinking of how dust-covered he was from the train station and having been on the train so long, he stood up again and squatted by the bed, not sitting down on it anymore.
“Couldn’t you have spoken to
properly? Why did you have soone else call
instead?”
Now Chiang Xiao realized what was happening, and with a sowhat teasing look, she said, “But her na is Nian. She called you ‘Brother Xinian’ so sweetly and tenderly. Didn’t that make your heart flutter?”
“You…” ng Xinian’s face was covered in taphorical dark lines, and he lifted his hand to swat her on the head, but as he reached her head, he turned his hand into a fist and pulled it back. “Regardless of her surna, do you know what I thought the first ti you called
‘Brother Xinian’?”
“What?”
“That was a term of endearnt ant only for you, and I won’t let any other girl call
that again.”
He really had thought so at the ti.
When Chiang Xiaoxiao called him ‘Brother Xinian’ for the first ti, he had decided that only she could call him that, nobody else.
Chiang Xiao’s lips quirked upward, “That Miss Nian Mutong is staying in the guest room downstairs. And another thing, Duan Qingqing was planning to have
hand over the keys to this room so she could redecorate it and then move Nian Mutong in.”
ng Xinian’s expression darkened.
“Who gave her the audacity?”
“I don’t know who gave her the audacity,” Chiang Xiao said flatly, “but apparently, Grandpa sees Nian Mutong as a treasure and even said that she could think of this place as her ho and live here for a lifeti if she wanted.”
Chiang Xiao also couldn’t hide her anger towards Old ng.
She didn’t expect him to truly regard her as his own granddaughter, but shouldn’t she at least get the respect she deserved?
This was going to be her ho too, one could even say that they had agreed to exchange this house to properly take care of ng Chaojun, so at the very least, shouldn’t she be treated as one of the hoowners?
If soone was going to stay in the house long-term, shouldn’t she be inford?
Nothing was said, and they were finding another doctor without telling her, and a Miss Nian was brought into the house without a word – what did they take her for?
Had she given him too much respect, making him unable to see the situation clearly?
And ng Chaojun, he had soone remove a precious orchid from her ho in City M without so much as a word to her!
And Duan Qingqing wanted to give that orchid to Nian Mutong!
She better not tell her she didn’t know the orchid was moved from her own ho!
These people, they were all family to the man before her!
Why should she have to endure these people just for his sake?
She wasn’t exactly a person of great kindness and magnanimity to begin with!
