That’s enough, really enough.
If at the beginning it was Tang Yanqing coming, he would have had to bear it whether in public or private, even greet with a smile. But today, when the arrival of the officers time and again becomes an obstacle to his and Shi Nian’s private life, he can no longer maintain the gentleman’s demeanor, he needs to say no.
Xiang Yuan, after changing clothes, came out and glanced at Guan Liang’s police motorcycle, then rudely said, "Since Mr. Guan, you rode your own bike here, then we won’t invite you to ride with us."
Xiang Yuan’s hostility was hardly suppressed anymore... Guan Liang shrugged: "As you wish."
Shi Nian frowned slightly, stepped forward and gently held Xiang Yuan’s arm: "A Yuan! The officer came to protect me; doing this is too impolite."
Xiang Yuan took a deep breath and tried to speak softly to Shi Nian: "Darling, their presence, for your husband, me, is also a kind of rudeness. As long as they are inseparable, it announces to everyone that I, as the husband, am incapable of protecting you, requiring such a lavish effort. But in fact, they have been protecting you these days, yet have you seen any small danger occur? I think they are simply stirring up trouble."
"A Yuan..." Shi Nian instinctively wanted to defend the police: "Receiving a threatening package is truly a life threat!"
Xiang Yuan turned around to look at Shi Nian, his face serious.
"Some words I couldn’t bear to say directly to you at the time; I was worried about you being threatened, afraid you couldn’t emotionally sustain it. But Shi Nian, it’s your own choice to work, and it’s this precarious journalist job that constantly walks on the edge of danger. Haven’t you considered from the day you chose this job, that intimidation would follow the job closely?"
"Well, since you’re scared, then the best solution is to give up this job. Quietly return home, just like before, tending flowers, doing housework, waiting for me to come back."
"But since you are unwilling, you still insist on doing your job, then fine, the threat and intimidation will always exist. This is the nature of your work, and if, because of this, you want to rely on 24-hour police protection for peace of mind, then do you want them to protect you forever?"
"Then will our life still have privacy? Have you considered my feelings?!" The most update n0vels are published on novel⁂fire.net
Xiang Yuan’s question attacks like rapid fire, leaving Shi Nian speechless, lowering her head.
His logic was clear: it is she who wants to choose the journalist’s job—then she must have the ability to withstand the pressure of this job—can’t always rely on police protection because that is impractical and seriously neglects Xiang Yuan’s personal rights.
Shi Nian smiled a little. This is M Country, even between husband and wife, one cannot ask the other to forever be bound together; they still have the right to defend their own rights.
Though acting according to the law, from her perspective as a traditional Chinese woman, it just feels so cold.
Shi Nian then took a deep breath, raised her hands in surrender: "Ok, A Yuan, you are right, this indeed is a personal issue brought upon you by me. I promise you, I will solve this problem myself."
Guan Liang’s motorcycle had already ridden over, waiting beside for their car to start.
Xiang Yuan started the car, casually saying: "Since you are so sincere in solving problems—after coming home tonight, I will draft a document to apply to the police to cancel 24-hour close protection. You just need to obediently sign it."
The car started, Shi Nian long tilted her head to stare at his profile, staring at his almost cold cheek lines. Why did he seem so unfamiliar? The Xiang Yuan she knew for four years, thought she loved for four years, was he all just imagined?
Xiang Yuan held the steering wheel, glanced at Shi Nian from the mirror, slightly furrowed brows: "What’s wrong?"
Shi Nian then shook her head, turned back, and sat upright.
Wrong. She understood she was wrong.
Four years, it turned out to be a mistake to entrust.
Shi Nian’s appearance fell into Xiang Yuan’s eyes, making Xiang Yuan quite annoyed in his heart.
It’s not , his original plan, the effect he wanted to achieve, wasn’t at all!
Guan Liang’s police motorcycle continued following behind, making Xiang Yuan unable to help but glare at Guan Liang fiercely from the rearview mirror.
It’s this troublesome officer who turned today’s heartfelt intentions into the present result!
