Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Exaggerate? How dare she say that? Why would he exaggerate? Nian Junting’s chest heaved, he was so angry. He wasn’t trained in acting, but there was nothing in the world that he couldn’t do, as long as he seriously wanted to do it. It was nothing but acting. How could it be too hard for him? She not only didn’t distrust him but also doubted his ability. “I see. She has some big misunderstandings about me.” Nian Junting abruptly sneered and said, “It’s time for me to show her my real abilities.”

“Don’t…” Yan Su gave a start. Your exaggerated way of acting is certainly gonna ruin the whole plan, she thought.

“What do you mean? Do you think that I’m exaggerating, too?” Nian Junting questioned her with a grim face.

“No… no…” Yan Su stuttered. “Mr. Nian, I think the world owes you an Oscar Award…”

Nian Junting snorted and continued, “What else did she say? Is she gonna simply hurt me and trample upon my feelings like this? Does she think that my heart is made of iron? Did she think that when she got the evidence and came back to me, I’d be moved and accept her again? Isn’t she thinking too highly of herself? No matter what reason she has, she has already hurt me.”

Yan Su hurriedly nodded and said, “You’re right. So… Sangsang said that she’d try her best to get pregnant before she broke up with you. And when she got the evidence, she’d go back to you with a pregnant belly. You may give up on her, but not on the baby.”

“Did she really say that?” Nian Junting’s eyes glowed.

“Yes.” Yan Su prayed silently, Sangsang, please don’t blame me for telling Mr. Nian the whole truth. He already knew, so if I didn’t make it clear, he’d bear a grudge.

“I’m surprised.” Nian Junting raised an eyebrow, thought for a moment, then shook his head with a smile. “She even came up with such a shameless plan. She’s trying really hard.” She’s such a scheming girl. No wonder I fell into her trap, he thought. Now I see why she was so passionate in bed those few days. It turned out that she was trying to get pregnant.

“Is she pregnant now?” he asked.

Yan Su was speechless. This is only the third day since she broke up with you. How could it be so fast? “I don’t think so. Earlier, she told me that those few days were her safe period, so it’s not likely to happen.”

Nian Junting immediately fell into regret. He thought that he was going to be a father. He wanted so much to have a little girl who was as adorable and silly as Luosang. He had no such feelings before he had a girlfriend. Now he had a girlfriend, and he was going to be 30 soon. He was not a boy anymore. Many of his army friends had more than one child now.

As he fell into silence, Yan Su gathered her courage and said, “Mr. Nian, since you know the truth now, maybe you should tell Luosang. She’s been quite miserable these days. Jiang Qifei called her and threatened her again. She wanted to be crueler to you but couldn’t bear doing it. Watching you showering in the rain every day downstairs, she couldn’t even eat.”

“She deserves it,” said Nian Junting. “Don’t tell her about this for now. Since she likes acting, I’ll cooperate.”

Please don’t, Yan Su thought. You’re really not good at that.

“Don’t worry. I won’t go and see her again. She can focus on Jiang Qifei now,” Nian Junting said. “I don’t know where she hid that evidence, indeed. Since she likes playing games, I’ll play with her. The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware the oriole is behind it. In three months, I’ll let her know what it means.”

“Mr. Nian, what are you gonna do?” Yan Su was a little worried.

“I don’t trust Sangsang’s acting skills, so I can only cooperate with her and pretend not to know anything.” Nian Junting gave her a proud glance.
