Chapter 366: Chapter 367: Severely Weakened
Nianyang rubbed her eyes and sat down at the dining table, softly yawning, with misty water in her eyes. This time, she was really exhausted.
Li Tingyan tenderly touched her face, "Nini, Iâm sorry. I brought you to the Escort Agency to have a good winter break with me, but instead, Iâve made you so tired."
Nianyang lowered her head and sipped the green bean porridge slowly. With warmth in her stomach, she felt more energized and shook her head saying,
"Itâs nothing. I was originally studying medicine, and treating and saving people is something I like to do."
Li Tingyan spoke with a tone full of care, "Nini, you helped save the escort this time and agreed to be a temporary doctor at the Escort Agency. The leader was kind enough to give me ten days of vacation. Once the agencyâs annual party is over, Iâll take you home to meet my parents and formally introduce you to them."
Nianyang nodded. It was already agreed that she would go home with Li Tingyan, and she wasnât nervous anymore.
There was still something on Li Tingyanâs mind. After Nianyang finished drinking the green bean porridge, he hesitantly asked,
"Nini, are you familiar with Dr. Lu?"
Nianyang wiped her mouth and told him about the time she helped Lu Chi save a woman with food poisoning in the city.
Li Tingyan felt slightly relieved hearing this, at least his wife didnât have ties with Lu Chi. However, thinking of the way Lu Chi looked at Nianyang still bothered him. He pursed his lips,
"Wife, promise me to stay away from him."
Nianyang gave him a weird look, "I donât even know Lu Chi well, why are you saying this?"
Li Tingyan stayed silent with a stern face. He couldnât possibly tell Nianyang that he instinctively felt Lu Chi had impure intentions towards her, fearing she would laugh at him for being overly cautious.
Nianyang burst out laughing, "Isnât it, Ah Yan? Iâve only met Dr. Lu once; are you getting jealous now?"
Li Tingyan said with a straight face, "I am jealous."
Nianyang laughed even more, pinching his cheeks,
"I say, dear brother, youâre too cute. However, it might not be possible to stay away from Dr. Lu, since Iâve already agreed to help at the clinic. Itâs unavoidable to have contact with him."
Li Tingyanâs eyebrows instantly furrowed, looking as if heâs facing a great enemy. What should he do? Suddenly he regretted bringing his wife to the Escort Agency, worrying she might attract too many rivals due to her excellence.
Nianyang saw Li Tingyanâs conflicted and serious expression, laughing so hard that tears came out. Strictly speaking, it was the first time she saw her man genuinely jealous, which was really amusing.
Li Tingyan narrowed his eyes, "Does seeing me jealous make you happy?"
"Happy, of course happy!" Nianyangâs eyes curved with delight. Seeing the manâs displeased expression, she quickly kissed his lips and said indulgently,
"Alright, alright, donât be unnecessarily worried. Lu Chi and I are just strangers. I promise even if I go to help at the clinic, apart from work matters, I wonât engage in any idle chatter with him, is that okay?"
Li Tingyan still didnât speak, his face clearly saying that he wasnât happy and feeling emotional.
Nianyang coaxed him like a child, "Moreover, rest assured, I only like you. I wonât spare a glance at other men."
Li Tingyan managed to force a smile, seemingly relaxed but still feeling uneasy inside. He couldnât quite pinpoint this feeling, ever since he saw Lu Chi.
He just had an ominous premonition, but he couldnât tell his wife about it, otherwise, sheâd surely think heâs crazy. He could only silently endure it himself.
