Chapter: 095 out of 513 - Ji Man's previous romance (2)

Ji Man's mood wasn't very good during lunchtime. Marquis Moyu glanced at her and quietly asked, ”What's wrong?”

”It's nothing.” Ji Man ate two bites of food before putting down her chopsticks. ”Perhaps, I'm seasick. I'll go take a nap in the afternoon.”

Nie Qingyun, Ning Mingjie, and Ning Errong were also at the table. Ning Errong looked at her older brother's calm face, raised her eyebrows, and asked, ”Older brother, are you feeling seasick too? Your complexion doesn't look good either.”

”I'm fine.” Ning Mingjie's voice was m.u.f.fled. He didn't even slightly raise his head and continued to silently eat.

Ji Man couldn't resist raising her head to look at him. Bro, you can't be that stingy, right? She had only looked at him for a little bit longer than she should have. Why was he angered to the point of blackening his face?

Ning Yuxuan turned his head slightly and saw Nie Sangyu looking somewhere else. He followed her gaze and saw Ning Mingjie. His thoughts slightly turned and he put down his chopsticks to ask, ”Has Sangyu offended Mingjie somehow?”

This atmosphere, no matter how you looked at, felt wrong.

Ning Errong looked at her older brother, then Nie Sangyu in utter confusion. ”That can't be, ah. Older brother was praising older sister Sangyu just a few days ago. How could that be possible…”

Nie Qingyun didn't have time to care about being polite. He kicked Ning Errong's leg underneath the table.

Ning Errong looked at him in bewilderment, ”What's wrong?”

Nie Qingyun added a piece of meat to her bowl. ”Eat more, you're eating too little.”

Ning Errong blushed. She bashfully held her chopsticks and went back to eating. From time to time, she would glance at Nie Qingyun. She didn't have the free time to say anymore unnecessary words.

Although Errong had casually said these words without any hidden meaning, Ning Yuxuan took these words very seriously. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Nie Sangyu, but he didn't actually ask any questions. It was only that his expression wasn't good either after this. The rest of the meal was eaten in stifling silence.

Ji Man knew that this was an undisguised misunderstanding. Nie Mingjie didn't like other people having opinions about his appearances and she truly didn't have any ideas about him. She was just remembering that sc.u.mbag from her past. She hadn't expected that a temporary breach of etiquette would not only make Ning Mingjie uncomfortable, but also make Marquis Moyu feel that he had to be guarded against being cheated on.

She sighed. Ji Man felt that this matter wasn't worth all this fuss. It was only that the psychological scar the sc.u.mbag had left behind was a bit deep and she would forget her manners when she thought about him.

It had been mentioned before that she had previously been in a relations.h.i.+p, but it had been as pure as fresh water. She was still a virgin. It wasn't that she was conservative. She just felt that their relations.h.i.+p hadn't reached that point yet.
