Chapter 1511 - I Felt Bad Watching His Tiny Frame Shiver Like That

“I won’t do that!” Jiang Yuning’s eyes widened as he shouted angrily. “I finally have a girlfriend, and I’m about to get married! Why should I break up?”

Xu Gang felt helpless. “That’s all you can do. Those people will only let her off if they know that you no longer love her.”

Jiang Yuning paced around the room, perplexed and troubled.

All he could think about at this moment was how he did not want to break up with Nian Xi. There was no way he could do that.

“What are you here for then?” He raised his voice at Xu Gang. “You should catch the bad guys as soon as possible.”

“The people on top want to bait the bigger fish,” Xu Gang said helplessly. “They’re infamous criminals who use high-tech to carry out their crimes! They can kill someone remotely without even being in their proximity. It’s our chance to destroy this organization and stop them in their tracks.”

Uncle Han frowned. “What do you mean? Is our Mister the bait?”

“They already know about your research and what you have. Even if it’s safe now, they’ll find you again at every opportunity. Where can you hide for the rest of your life? Are you going to stay underground in Xia City forever? The police can’t be protecting you forever either. When you start a family and have children, they may be in danger as well,” Xu Gang replied loudly. “And your family, we need to tackle the root of the problem.”

Jiang Yuning’s elegant features were contorted. He was utterly distraught. After a moment, he quietly shut his door, signaling that he did not wish to speak to anyone anymore.

Uncle Han frowned deeply. “Xu Gang, you should know our Mister’s personality, especially before he met Miss Nian. Ever since they started dating, his autistic traits have improved tremendously. He’s able to interact normally with people now, as well as socialize and make friends. If he breaks up with Miss Nian, I’m worried that he will regress to a stage even worse than before.”

Xu Gang patted his shoulder. “I’ve protected him in the past. I feel the heartache too, but there are some things we have to do.”

Uncle Han clenched his fists tightly.

…

In the villa, at nine in the morning, Nian Xi called Jiang Yuning after she had her breakfast, but his phone was switched off.

“This guy! We’ve only been apart for one night, and he already turned off his phone!” Nian Xi grumbled in dissatisfaction.

Luosang smiled in an attempt to reassure her, but she was worried.

After hearing from Nian Junting the previous night, she was worried that Jiang Yuning would raise the matter of breaking up with Nian Xi to protect her.

If she was in her shoes, she would find it difficult to accept a break up on these circumstances.

Nian Xi had dated Feng Jichuan for so many years in the past, and they had broken up just before marriage was in the talks. Now that she was with Jiang Yuning, it would be devastating if they broke up as well now. Would she ever believe in love again?

“Sangsang, do you think he has gotten tired of taking care of me?” Nian Xi asked suddenly.

Luosang turned to see her staring out of the window, looking slightly troubled and unsettled.

She quickly rebutted her, “Don’t be ridiculous, Professor Jiang isn’t someone like that. If he does feel that way, I don’t think I’ll ever believe in love again.”

Nian Xi fell completely silent.

Did Luosang consider her brother’s feelings when she said that?

“What about you?” Luosang laughed. “When have you grown so dependent on Professor Jiang? You’ve only spent one night apart from each other! Do you truly take him to be your little Jiang-jiang?”

“I must have gotten used to seeing him every day now that we’re living together.” Nian Xi was shocked to find how needy and clingy she had gotten. “I’m worried that he’s shocked by the events that day as well; he has quite a weak heart after all. He was trembling when he held me in his arms yesterday. I felt bad watching his tiny frame shiver like that.”

Luosang was speechless. Did the two of them reverse their roles in their relationship?
