“Take no offense at a child’s babbling.” Luosang gently patted him on the shoulder.
Nian Junting’s eyelids dropped as he said, “Just wheel me away.”
Luosang moved faster. When they were pretty far away from the kid, she looked at the poplars and willows on both sides of the lake and sighed. “What that kid said reminded me of before. When I was your caregiver, I always wheeled you here for a walk. At that time, you were awful to me.”
Nian Junting snorted. When Luosang wheeled him under a streetlight, he abruptly asked her to stop. After that, he reached a hand into his trouser pocket and took out a floral shaped diamond ring.
Luosang had heard Lu Kang mentioning that ring and had been expecting it. But still, when he suddenly took it out, she paused in surprise. Under the warm streetlight, the diamond ring glowed dazzlingly.
“Luo, I was going to give you this ring that night before New Year’s at dinner. I lost the ring when I proposed to you. I owe you a ring. Do you like this one?” Nian Junting raised his head and looked Luosang in the eyes.
The light poured down, emphasizing the perfect shape of his incredibly handsome face. Luosang’s heart even missed a beat. She bent over, reached out her snow-white, slender fingers, and said, “Put it on my finger.”
He had put a ring on her finger once before. Back then, she was still his girlfriend, and he put the ring on the wrong finger. This time was different. He put the ring directly on her ring finger. “You only put a ring on that finger when you get married.” Lusoang laughed.
“We’ll get married sooner or later. Will I possibly let you run away?” Nian Junting clasped his fingers with hers, saying, “Luo, if anything like this happens again, don’t keep it to yourself. Just tell me about it. You have to understand that I am such an outstanding man. Too many women will want to sow discord between us.”
Luosang deeply agreed with him on the first half of his speech, but the last half… She was used to it anyway, and… he was not wrong.
“Leng Shuangwei is not just any woman. She’s your ex-girlfriend, and you said yourself that she’s perfect.” Luosang glanced at him. “It turns out the perfect woman in your heart is a woman like that.”
“I’m very disappointed in her, too.” Nian Junting frowned. “Jealousy can change a person thoroughly, even a woman like her. I really don’t understand the world of you girls. But don’t worry, Ji Chuan isn’t marrying Nian Xi anymore, so I won’t see her again.”
“Speaking of which, how are Ji Chuan and Nian Xi now? They suddenly canceled the wedding. Didn’t the Feng family’s people talk to your parents?” Luosang asked.
“They did. Earlier, Ji Chuan’s parents came to my company every day, asking me to talk to Nian Xi. Back then, my heart was broken. I even wanted to peel Ji Chuan’s skin off. How could I ever be in the mood to talk to Nian Xi?” said Nian Junting blandly. “Besides, if they ended up happy, what about me? Could I watch them being happy? Sorry, I’m not that generous.”
Luosang wanted to laugh. If his heart broke, everyone around him would seriously suffer.
They took a walk around the lake. It was already eight o’clock when they got home. After getting upstairs, Nian Junting raised his brows and excitedly gave Lusoang a glance. He asked, “What should I do? I’m having difficulty moving. I guess you need to give me a sponge bath again.”
“Yeah, but you used to hate me sponge-bathing you the most.” Luosang smiled faintly.
“I don’t care. I want you to give me that sponge bath now. I didn’t shower yesterday. Wipe me clean, now. I feel really uncomfortable.” Nian Junting was really excited. “Hurry up, carry me onto the bed.”
