Chapter 212 - Apart from you, everyone else is an ugly duckling (2/2)
“I don’t want it, don’t be ridiculous,” Luosang pleaded, “It’s Chuen’s birthday, I shouldn’t steal her thunder by wearing something too extravagant. Are you trying to ruin our friends.h.i.+p?”
“You look prettier than her whatever you’re wearing,” Nian Junting said matter-of-factly.
Luosang didn’t know if it was funny or sweet, “I’m hosting the party tomorrow, I can’t overshadow the star of the show.”
“Why are you the emcee, you’re going to catch the attention of so many men that way,” Nian Junting said spitefully.
Luosang was fighting back a smile, he was both frustrating and adorable at the same time, “Well, you didn’t think I was pretty back then, you always hurled insults at me.”
“You’re the prettiest girl I’ve ever met ever since we started dating.”
“…”
“Meaning I’m not pretty if I wasn’t dating you?” Luosang thought.
“She asked me to be the emcee, I couldn’t refuse,” Luosang was speechless, “Oh right, don’t be too affectionate with me at the party tomorrow, I heard that your grandmother would be there too. I don’t want to be introduced to your family so soon.”
“What do you mean? Am I supposed to stand back and watch other men hit on you?”
“Try not to think of me as irresistibly attractive.”
“You managed to attract me, the most perfect man on the planet. What do you think of your attractiveness?” Nian Junting grunted.
Luosang inhaled sharply, “You don’t want your family to be talking about us behind our backs right, we’ve barely been together for two weeks!”
Nian Junting thought about how naggy his grandmother was and shuddered, “Alright, I know, I’ll bring Xiaosi along tomorrow to stand guard by your side. No one shall come near you.”
