Chapter 1184: Brother, I Miss You
Nian Xi slapped away his hand and said, “You have no idea what I’ve been through. I thought I was going to die. And the weird thing is that at that moment, I suddenly felt that my mean brother was pretty nice. I’m gonna call him and see how he’s doing.”
Fang Qi was a little puzzled but wisely kept his mouth shut.
Nian Xi walked to the side to call Nian Junting.
“What?” Nian Junting’s icy voice heard from the other side of the phone ruined the warm atmosphere Nian Xi just created. She spent a short while organizing her language before saying, “Brother, I miss you. I suddenly realized that I like you, as my brother.”
Nian Junting was silent for a few seconds before responding in an even icier voice, “Are you ill? I’m coming to get you. I’ll take you to the hospital.
How Nian Xi regretted making that call!
“Sorry, wrong number. Bye.” She ended the call.
On the other end of the phone, Luosang looked at a stunned Nian Junting and asked, “What did Nian Xi say to? What’s going on? Why do you look so surprised?”
“Nothing.” Nian Junting put some rice into his mouth. Soon after that, he added, “I think her brain isn’t working well. I can’t believe she said that she misses me, that I’m a good brother and that she likes me.”
Luosang was stunned to hear that. “What’s up with her? Are you sure that’s what she said? What did you say back?”
Nian Junting gave her a look and said, “Do I need to? Those were her exact words.”
He did add something, though, that she had emphasized certain words during their brief conversation.
Luosang furrowed her brows slightly, then rolled her eyes and said, “She said such touching things to you, yet your response was to offer to drive her to the hospital? Think about it. A girl suddenly realizes that someone like you is nice and that she misses you. Why? She’s probably very upset, or she might have just gone through something life-threatening or dangerous that made her feel everything in the world is beautiful. She might feel that pigs are pretty and poop smells nice...”
At first, Nian Junting was quite nervous, but at last, he couldn’t bear listening to her. He made a long face, dropped his chopsticks, and said, “Run that by me again.”
“Not now. I have to change Apple. Call Nian Xi back and ask her what’s going on.” Luosang quickly finished her soup and sneaked away.
Nian Junting carefully pondered his wife’s words. He felt she was probably right.
Strange things always happen for a reason. Earlier he heard from Feng Ji Chuan that Nian xi was working on a campus murder case. Maybe something did happen to her.
With a heavy heart, he called his sister back.
“What?”
“I’ve been thinking about you said, and I shouldn’t have responded the way I did.” He took a deep breath and continued, “You are never smart. I’ve often wondered if you were my sister. But after all, you are my little sister. I miss you too. I wish you a happy life.”
Wish you a happy life? Why didn’t he say, ‘I hope you stay safe?’
Hearing that, Nian Xi felt her eye corners twitch. What he said at first made her want to kill him, but then...
“Brother, stop. I feel sick,”
Nian Junting fell silent.
He realized he’d just done something wacky. He was right.: He shouldn’t be nice to his little sister at all.
“Bye.” Nian Xi ended the call.
Nian Justing rubbed his temples. He would never say something so nice to Nian Xi again. Ever.
