Chapter 823 - Twelve O’Clock, It’s My Birthday (2/2)

The next morning, Nian Junting drove to the police station without even eating breakfast.

Nian Xi had only just put on her uniform and sat down when her office door was kicked open. Nian Junting marched in, his expression tight. “Why didn’t you tell me about you applying to the police detective team? If you find your current job too mundane, your chief has already told me that you will be promoted at the end of this year. When you make this kind of decision, have you considered mum’s feelings? She was so anxious; she was going crazy last night.”

“Mum looked for me last night. I’ve made up my mind.” Nian Xi calmly put on her police beret. “I’m not bored of these mundane tasks; I just really want to be a police detective…”

“Don’t talk to me about this nonsense,” Nian Junting said coldly.

“Is it because Ji Chuan entered the police force and is in charge of the police detectives, that you want to transfer over?”

Nian Junting was stunned. “No. I’ve had this thought for a while; I’ve even explained it to dad.”

“Dad probably agreed because he wants you to have more opportunities to come into contact with Ji Chuan,” Nian Junting said, “Ji Chuan still holds you closely in his heart. Give him any sort of hint, and you guys have a chance of reconciling any time…”

“I’ve already said that I want to go over to the police detective team a long time ago, but all of you won’t listen to me. Now that I’ve polished my skills in the police station for many years, I now have some experience and capital. I believe that I can take on this job.”

Nian Xi stood up. “I admit that I initially did this job because of Ji Chuan, but I’ve grown to like being a cop. I’ll protect myself properly, not for myself, but for my family. I have to go on patrol now. After this month, I’ll be going to the police detective team. You should stop bothering me.”

“Nian Xi…”

Nian Junting grabbed her arm.

Nian Xi suddenly blinked at him and said, “What? Didn’t you always just see me as a blade of gra.s.s? You won’t suddenly tell me that you love me very much, would you?”

“… I’m sorry. I can’t say those kinds of mushy and disgusting words while looking at your face,” Nian Junting said.

“…”

What’s wrong with my face? Nian Xi was incredibly frustrated.

“Remember to come for my birthday tomorrow,” Nian Junting said.

“Mm.”

“Ji Chuan will be coming too.” Nian Junting added.

Nian Xi turned away. “What present do you want?”

“It doesn’t matter. It’s not a present from Luo anyways. I’m not very concerned about anything else.”

Nian Xi didn’t want to see him for even a moment longer. However, the thought of seeing Ji Chuan the next day made her feel troubled.

After she left, Nian Junting helplessly sank into deep thought. Since he couldn’t persuade her, he could only contact the people of her team to let her do some a.n.a.lysis and research in the office.

It was a silent night.

Since becoming pregnant, for the sake of the baby’s health, Luosang had maintained a regular sleep schedule. Tonight, she was in a deep sleep when she was suddenly woken up.

She groggily opened her eyes. Nian Junting’s handsome face was right in front of her. “Luo… Luo…”

“Mm… what’s wrong?”

“The clock just turned twelve. It’s my birthday,” Nian Junting said, reminding her grudgingly.

“Mm, happy birthday.”

Luosang was incredibly sleepy. She turned around and closed her eyes again.
