Chapter 1188 - t’s Like Indirectly Kissing (1/2)

I’ll kill him if he says no, Nian Xi thought.

Jiang Yuning stopped breathing for a second.

Staring into each other’s eyes, they were just a few inches apart. He found her extra attractive while being thick-skinned. “You—you are pretty. Every part of you is pretty, even your hair.”

“Good boy.” Nian Xi smiled and opened the shopping bag she brought. She took out a black jacket and said, “Your coat is ruined. It’s cold out, so I bought you a new jacket on my way here. It’s not a good brand. I just grabbed one. I don’t even know if it’s the right size or not. I just described your body type, and the salesperson recommended this one.”

Jiang Yuning took the jacket from, examined it and then said happily, “Xi, you have such a good taste. This jacket is gorgeous. I’ve never seen such a good-looking black jacket.”

Nian Xi didn’t feel so confident hearing that compliment. That jacket was very ordinary. The shop she visited catered to middle-aged men.

“Eh… Just wear it tonight. I’ll buy you a better one later, as compensation.”

“I don’t need your compensation.” Jiang Yuning shook his head and said softly, “Just stay with me.”

Nian Xi was a little confused.

“I want you to keep me company.” Jiang Yuning glanced at her.

Nian Xi found his reaction interesting. He was getting smart.

“Are you hungry or thirsty? Can I get you something?”

She remembered him mentioning dinner before going to the lab.

Jiang Yuning lowered his head and rubbed his belly. He was hungry indeed. “Just get me a steamed bun and a bottle of water.”

“That’s all?” Nian Xi asked.

Jiang Yuning nodded.
