2120 Sister Nian: Are You Sure You Want to Discuss This With Me?
“If the Xie family can figure it out, they’ll protect Nian Nian with me wholeheartedly. If they can’t figure it out, I’ll… pretend that I don’t have any relatives.”
Nan Tianyi immediately stopped persuading her.
He knew Xie Tingyun’s personality well. She looked gentle and weak, but she was actually the most opinionated. If she decided on something, even ten cows couldn’t stop her.
Besides, he couldn’t bear to go against his wife’s wishes.
Nan Tianyi patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry, I’m here. I’ll protect Nian Nian too.”
Xie Tingyun turned to look at him. Her watery eyes flickered slightly as she leaned on his shoulder and whispered, “Thank you, Tianyi.”

Outside, the black SUV had been waiting by the roadside for a long time.
Ye Wangchuan rolled down the window and rested his elbow outside. He kept his gaze on the opposite side of the road.
Soon, a cold figure walked out.
Ye Wangchuan unbuckled his seatbelt and opened the door. He walked over and took the books from the girl. They were quite heavy.
As he helped Qiao Nian move her things, he said in a low voice, “Why didn’t you tell me it was so heavy? I could have come in and helped you.”
“Fortunately, it’s not that heavy.” Qiao Nian felt much more relaxed after being relieved of the burden. She followed him with one hand in her pocket.
Ye Wangchuan opened the door of the back seat and put her things in. Then, he turned around and reached out to the girl.
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and almost instantly understood what he meant. She handed him her shoulder bag.
Sure enough, Ye Wangchuan took the opportunity to put her shoulder bag in and closed the door. Then, he walked around to the front and opened the door of the passenger seat. “Get in.”
Qiao Nian got into the car and closed the car door herself.
Ye Wangchuan went around to the other side, got in, and quickly closed the door. After starting the car, he asked, “Have you eaten dinner?”
Qiao Nian hummed as she rolled down the window to let in the air. She rested her elbow on the outside and replied lazily, “Yes.”
Ye Wangchuan smiled regretfully. “I see. But what if I didn’t eat, Nian Nian?”
Qiao Nian was still thinking about what Xie Tingyun had mentioned to her distractedly.
Hearing this, she turned to meet the man’s deep eyes.
Feeling as if someone was tugging at her heartstrings, Qiao Nian quickly turned her head away. “Ahem, what do you want to eat?”
Ye Wangchuan liked to see her uneasy. He supported his chin with his hand and smiled. “That depends on what God Qiao wants to treat me to.”
Qiao Nian was speechless.
She quickly realized what he was thinking. Her dark eyes were clear and bright as she looked at him deeply. A dangerous light seemed to glint in her eyes, and her voice grew hoarse. “Are you sure you want to discuss this with me?”
Before Ye Wangchuan could answer her, Qiao Nian reminded him in a low voice, “You were the one who said you would wait a year.”
She was talking about that matter.
Ye Wangchuan had said that he would wait a year and a half for her 20th birthday. It wasn’t that she was unwilling.
Ye Wangchuan didn’t expect Qiao Nian to be so fierce as to directly mention their previous agreement.
The expression on his usually calm and handsome face was slightly stunned for a second. A dense heat rose from his body. He turned on the air conditioner and grew still for a moment.
The cold air lingered in the car, and the sparks in his heart were gradually suppressed.
Ye Wangchuan was helpless and gentle. He couldn’t bear to talk about her. He could only digest the anger he had caused. “Go to the movies tonight?”
“You’re not busy anymore?” Qiao Nian saw that he had turned on the air conditioner and lowered her baseball cap, revealing an exquisite chin. She sat comfortably in her seat. “No, let’s go eat first.”
