Chapter 830 - It’s Your Birthday. You’re the Boss (1/2)
Luosang snorted and said, “My brother is the best. His future wife will live a happy life.”
Nian Junting responded speechlessly, “Do you really believe him?”
“I believe him.” Luosang nodded. “Because I’m a good woman. My brother is like me, so he’s a good man. Sadly, he’s a little too young. Otherwise, I’d set him up with Su.”
“Lu Kang likes Yan Su,” Nian Junting reminded her bluntly.
“Oh, yeah.” Luosang nodded. “I’m just saying. I know it’s impossible.”
Back in the car, Luosang buckled up and said, “Your father seemed to be quite frustrated. Is he okay?”
“Em,” Nian Junting responded while driving, “He’s still alive.”
Luosang sighed.
That’s obvious, isn’t it? She thought.
“What do you think about Uncle Jiang, the man your mom brought to the lunch?”
“He got married ten years ago and then divorced. He’s been pursuing my mother for three or four years. He waited all this time for her to get a divorce.”
Luosang understood. “So he’s pa.s.sionately in love with her. Just now, during the lunch, he took really good care of your mom. He’s good actually. A woman might want to be with someone she loves when she’s young, but when she grows older and older, she might change her mind and feel that she needs someone who loves her, to protect her and take care of her.”
“Em, I wish that there’s someone to take care of her too.” Nian Junting had a complicated look in his eyes. “Oh, Luo, where’s my birthday gift?”
…
Didn’t you change the topic a little too fast? Luosang thought.
She couldn’t react immediately.
“You did prepare a gift for me, didn’t you?” Nian Junting’s face darkened slightly.
“I did. I’ll give it to you tonight,” Luosang replied vaguely and turned her face away.
Only after hearing that did Nian Junting’s face turn happy from sulky. It was his birthday. They went home pretty early so Nian Junting bought two movie tickets. It was the summer vacation, so many movies were on.
When picking the movie, Nian Junting asked for Luosang’s opinion, “What do you want to watch?”
Luosang had read some reviews online. She thought for a moment then said, “Detective Chinatown.”
Nian Junting nodded then turned to tell the ticket seller. “Two tickets for Operation Red Sea, please. We want seats in the middle.”
For a moment, Luosang didn’t know what to say.
She patted him on the shoulder and said, “I said Detective Chinatown.”
“I know. I only asked you what you want to watch but didn’t plan to let you choose the movie,” said Nian Junting.
She wanted to hit him.
The ticket seller was speechless too. But he still said smilingly, “A lot of people come to watch Operation Red Sea these days. The story is good. The box office receipts for that movie have gotten really high.”
After getting the tickets, Nian Junting asked, “Do you want anything to eat?”
Luosang rolled her eyes and said, “You’ve made me so angry that I’ve already lost my appet.i.te.”
“It’s my birthday today.” Nian Junting reminded her.
Alright, it’s your birthday, so you’re the boss today, Luosang thought, keeping herself from losing her temper.
In the screening room, they found a lot of people in there. Nian Junting had his eyes fixed on the screen the entire time.
While leaving, he sighed, “That movie is a little exaggerated, but it made my blood boil. I even want to rejoin the army after watching that.”
You can go. I won’t try to stop you, Luosang thought.
“Our country is so powerful,” Nian Junting carried on.
