Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

The guests found the scene peculiar as well.

The Ye family looked surprised and Ye Chuen looked grim, everyone heard about how much of a cleanliness freak Nian Junting was. He had a reputation of humiliating all the girls he dated with his vile mouth, but here he was, fighting to do mouth-to-mouth rescue for Luo Sang, it was unbelievable.

Yu Wen looked on meaningfully as well, her grandson had rushed forward when the platform gave way, Yi Jingxi only managed to jump in first as he was right by the poolside.

She knew her grandson well, he was highly possessive. She figured that he had something going on with this girl for him to act this way.

“Ack, ack…”

Luo Sang coughed out some water after a couple of rescue attempts, she opened her eyes feebly but her body was weak.

Blood was still dripping down the side of her face and she couldn’t make out the person in front of her, she remembered that Yi Jingxi was the last person she saw and she mouthed, “Yi Jingxi…”

Nian Junting’s joyous expression was replaced by a look of coldness.

He turned around and glared at Yi Jingxi viciously. With a swoop, he lifted Luo Sang and walked out, halfway, he paused and looked at the rest of the guests before settling his gaze on Nian Xi, “You are a police officer, protect the scene of the crime and find out why this happened in the first place.”

“Yes,” Nian Xi nearly gave him a salute, her brother’s aura was far more intimidating than her own superior’s, “Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone near the scene.”

Nian Junting marched on with Luo Sang in his arms.

Yi Jingxi belted behind him.

“Jingxi…” Zhong Yi grabbed his wrist and pleaded, “No matter what, you’re attending this birthday party as my boyfriend, how do you expect me to face the rest of the guests if you walked out on me? Please, you can go over later, Nian Junting will bring her to the hospital.”

“I’m afraid you’ve got it wrong, I was never your boyfriend, we’re just putting an act together,” Yi Jingxi pried her hands away from his wrist and ran after Nian Junting.

…

At 8.20pm, Nian Junting barged through the accident and emergency doors.

Medical personnel hurried Luo Sang into the resuscitation room.

As he looked at the shut doors in front of him, he unbuttoned his shirt anxiously. He turned to see Yi Jingxi run into the building hurriedly.

The two of them locked eyes about ten meters apart and Yi Jingxi continued to walk towards him, Nian Junting could see the worry in his eyes, “Mr. Yi, thank you for saving Luo Sang today, you can go home now.”

Yi Jingxi’s handsome face looked serious, on his drive here, he thought about a lot of things and he reminded himself to stay calm, but it was hard to control his emotions now, “Mr. Nian, you don’t have to thank me, it’s my duty to save Luo Sang.”

Nian Junting could sense it, he wasn’t stupid, he didn’t understand why Yi Jingxi jumped in even before Chi Shengxu, he wondered how many more suitors Luo Sang had.

“You know Luo Sang?”

“Luo Sang is my fiancée.”

They looked at each other and the atmosphere was tense.
