Chapter 905: Xi, Do You Fancy Jiang Yuning?
Nian Xi looked at him confusedly.
Fang Qi sighed and comforted her. “Think about it. His IQ is probably over 200 and yours is probably around 80. The gap between your intelligence is too stark; it will affect your offspring. When he talks to you about protons and nano, you can only talk to him about spicy soup and barbeque, it’s tragic.”
“…”
She was already feeling frustrated, but now, she felt like strangling him.
Zhan Hong tried to hold back his laughter. “Are you really trying to comfort her?”
Fang Qi felt wronged. “I’m just stating the facts. Two people have to be compatible to be together. Besides, Nian Xi is active and extroverted, and Mr. Jiang is the complete opposite. He enjoys staying in the quiet lab by himself, sitting in a daze and thinking about things. You have to be ready to face these differences if you want to be together.”
Nian Xi didn’t know what to say. He was actually making sense.
Jiang Yuning didn’t like to talk but her brother spoke incessantly. If her parents had a son-in-law like Jiang Yuning, they would probably go mad.
…
After a ten-hour long flight, the plane landed in Xia City at night.
Nian Junting was with Nian Qingyun and Murong Cheng at the airport waiting.
Nian Xi was touched when she saw the three of them waiting for her. No matter how big the world was, her small family and her small home was her warm cove for respite.
“What a miracle that the three of you are here together.” Nian Xi walked up to them and gave Murong Cheng a big hug.
“You think I want to see your father? I was just worried about you.” Murong Cheng tousled Nian Xi’s hair. “If you weren’t coming back today, I would have flown to look for you.”
“Don’t be dramatic.” Nian Xi looked at Nian Junting. He stepped backward and said, “I don’t want to hug you.”
…
As if she wanted to hug him.
Nian Xi was speechless but asked, “Where’s Sang?”
“She’s at home,” Nian Junting replied coldly. “She wanted to come see you but I didn’t let her out of the house.”
“Nian Xi, since your family is here, we’re going to take our leave first. The Director told us to take a few days off to rest before going back to report for duty. You can take your time to adjust your mood at home.” Zhan Hong waved goodbye to her.
After she got in the car, she quickly asked Nian Qingyun, “Dad, did they manage to capture that guy who leaked the information from the lab?”
“The United States is refusing to hand over the man.” Nian Qingyun turned to look at her. “Of course, this is temporary. They will have to hand him over eventually. If they don’t take a stand, it would encourage everyone to steal intellectual property.”
“How shameless. How could he betray his own country like this?” Nian Xi said angrily.
“The man came back after studying overseas. He was probably bought out by then.” Nian Qingyun sighed and shook his head. “Don’t worry about Jiang Yuning. I received news that someone will be rescuing him soon. His parents are renowned scientists and have plenty of connections. The standing of our country is different now, so they wouldn’t dare to be too brazen. They don’t have the guts to do anything too drastic.”
Nian Qi felt rea.s.sured when she heard that.
“Xi, do you fancy Jiang Yuning? You seem very concerned about him,” Murong Cheng said.
“…No, he’s just a friend. It’s natural for me to show concern about my friends. Not to mention he’s someone that I respect a lot.” Nian Xi lowered her head and said, “But… what do you guys think about… me getting into a relations.h.i.+p with him?”
