Chapter 906: Luo Always Praises Me for My Good Looks
When Nian Junting suddenly pressed on the break, Nian Xi almost fell out of her seat. “Brother, what are you doing?”
“You want to be with that dumb boy?” Nian Junting glared at her and said, “Are you serious?”
Nian Xi sighed and replied with, “He is not dumb. He just doesn’t like talking. I didn’t say that I want to be with him. I just feel that I can give it a try. I’m not with anyone now, am I? Besides, my heart got softened every time I saw him. He’s like a puppy of mine.”
Nian Junting paused briefly, then nodded and said, “I get it. You need a dog. You can have Xiaosi for a while.”
Nian Xi didn’t respond.
Nian Qingyun said, “I think it’s because she’s old enough to be a mother. Her motherly love is affecting her.”
Murong Cheng felt speechless.
Nian Junting and his father had a weird way of thinking.
“Mom…” Nian Xi turned to Murong Cheng.
“I get it. I used to feel the same way.” Murong Cheng nodded. “Maybe you can get a real puppy? I’ll buy you one tomorrow.”
Nian Xi didn’t know what to say. It turned out that her mother didn’t understand her feelings.
Murong Cheng gave a bitter smile and said, “Your awful brother has already given me headaches. If I had a weird, mute son-in-law, I might just die with a headache.”
Nian Junting added coldly, “Whether he likes to talk or not isn’t important. I don’t like talking either. I’m just angry that he could ignore me.”
“It’s because of his growth environment. Both his parents are scientists. He spent his entire childhood in the labs. That’s why he’s autistic. I believe I can change him,” Nian Xi said. “He only smiles at me and talks to me; that’s not bad. When you have a pet, you wouldn’t want your pet to play up to everyone. You’d be angry about it.”
“Do you want a pet or a boyfriend?” Nian Qingyun interrupted her and said, “Do you even know what you want?”
“Or do you just like him because he looks good,” said Nian Junting.
He could not forget that Luosang always mentioned how pretty Jiang Yuning was. Ever since he was arrested, Luosang complained at every meal, and said she would never go to j.a.pan or France again.
Nian Xi lowered her head.
She admitted to herself that Jiang Yuning was very good-looking. Sometimes she wanted to pinch his cheeks and rub his hair. Last time, she even wanted to grab his little b.u.t.t.
She, of course, would never tell anyone about that, or people might see her as a lascivious girl.
Nian Junting shook his head regrettably and said, “I am surprised that your taste hasn’t improved at all, even though you grew up with handsome people like me, Xiao Si, and Feng Ji Chuan. You still like those kinds of pretty boys.”
Nian Xi responded blandly saying, “I looked at you guys every day. Maybe that’s the reason why I found Jiang Yuning delicate and refres.h.i.+ng. After all, you don’t look young.”
Nian Junting was unhappy. “What do you mean that I don’t look young? Luo always praises me for my good looks. She said that I look around twenty-five.”
Nian Xi rolled her eyes. She didn’t believe him at all.
“Eh-hem,” Nian Qingyun said. “Alright, let’s not talk about that. Since we have achieved an agreement, we will get Nian Xi a puppy tomorrow. If after that, she still feels like having a puppy-like boy, we’ll discuss it further.”
