novelxo Chapter 184
But it was her toxic relationship with Yi Jingxi that taught her to value qualities like honesty and transparency in a man.
Nian Junting examined her expression. She looked stunned and in deep contemplation. He drew closer to her face, and Luosang could smell the mint in his breath.
The oxygen around them became scarce.
Luosang’s brains were in a mush, and she slowly closed her eyes.
Nian Junting’s heart was thumping like a rabbit as he stared hard at her plump lips. He still remembered how magical it was to kiss her last time, but just as he drew closer and closer, a loud thump pounded on the door. Xiao Si’s loud voice rang through the doorway.
“Tingting, have you eaten? I’m here to visit you! I heard that you’ve stopped going out of the house to have fun after being rejected by Sansan. What dating books are you cooped up at home with anyway?”
Luosang was jolted back to reality and pushed Nian Junting away.
Nian Junting’s face was clouded with dark lines as he watched the atmosphere shatter.
Xiao Si entered the living room and looked at them both. Nian Junting and Luosang were standing at arm’s length now and his brother looked tense. Nian Junting glared at him with a piercing gaze. The girl next to Nian Junting was wearing denim jeans and a pastel blue sweater. She had her hair up in a loose bun and was exuding elegance and beauty just standing there.
He paused before saying elaborately, “Excuse me, my beautiful lady, please don’t misunderstand. Sansan isn’t a person…”
“If I’m not a person, then what am I?” Luosang turned around and faced him.
Xiao Si’s jaw dropped and hurriedly regained his composure, “You’re a beauty! A great beauty. Sansan, I didn’t realize how young and beautiful you were. I must have had poor vision or something. If I had seen it before, I would have courted you myself. Are you with Tingting already? Maybe you can consider me? I’m much more outstanding than he is…”
“Scram,” Nian Junting blocked his advancing footsteps and put an arm around Luosang’s shoulders, “She’s my girlfriend now.”
“No way Sansan. You boarded the pirate ship so quickly?” Xiao Si looked extremely disappointed, “How could you forget all the hardships you went through when you were taking care of Tingting? He was so mean to you.”
“Shut up,” Nian Junting glared at him again. He wanted to tear Xiao Si up into a million pieces. Xiao Si had ruined his perfect moment with Luosang, and now he had his eyes on his girlfriend, “What exactly are you here for? I have a girlfriend now, and I don’t have time to fool around with you. You should take your leave promptly.”
Luosang held back a smile. The two of them were truly frenemies, and they detested one another.
“You are so cold and heartless. How could you forget me after getting a girlfriend?” Xiao Si had decided to walk towards the dining table to inspect the dishes. “Did you make these, Sansan? I haven’t tasted your cooking in so long. I shall have my dinner here since I haven’t had the chance to eat yet.”contemporary romance
He helped himself with the rice and sat himself down and started digging in.
Nian Junting’s face was distorted with anger since he had put in a great deal of effort to get Luosang to cook for him. The food was limited already, and there he was, gorging himself on the food before him.
“Oh right, what did you say about dating manuals before?” Luosang asked.
Nian Junting froze, “Did he say anything about that? I didn’t hear him say anything about ‘dating manuals’, did you mishear something?”
Luosang remained silent but continued to stare at him as he froze up.
Xiao Si looked at the both of them as he continued eating. It was rare for him to see his brother freeze in embarrassment like that. He was intrigued and excited to see more of what was to come.
