An Nuan rubbed her ears and said to the phone, "What's happened?"
Generally when she was in a good mood, it wouldn't be anything major.
So An Nuan was not too concerned.
"I'm asking you what has happened!" Xia Qiqi said angrily, "I saw in the news that you were duped by that bastard Gu YanSheng!"
The news probably didn't phrase it that way!
At most, the Gu family had stolen the An family's limelight.
"Where are you now?" Xia Qiqi asked, suddenly becoming somewhat gentle.
Just a moment ago she had seemed ready to kill her, and now she was suddenly as gentle as water.
"I'm in Jiang City," An Nuan replied while looking at the furnishings in the house.
As she answered, the corners of her mouth clearly carried a hint of a smile.
It was...love.
She just felt like the whole room was filled with Ye Jinghuai's scent.
"Jiang City? What are you doing in that godforsaken place?!" Xia Qiqi got excited again.
An Nuan guessed that in the future when calling Xia Qiqi, she'd have to use speakerphone. Who knew which day her ears would be deafened!
"Ye Jinghuai is here." An Nuan was speechless.
Xia Qiqi seemed to have just realized and responded with an "Oh!"
"Did you call me just because of the news?" An Nuan asked.
"Yeah, it's such a big deal, I was afraid you'd be upset. I also saw in the media that you suddenly took a leave of absence? I was afraid you might go so far as to commit suicide!" Xia Qiqi said bluntly.
An Nuan rolled her eyes.
She replied, "I'm fine, I just took some time off for myself because I was tired."
"Was it to take time off or was it to be with Ye Jinghuai?" Xia Qiqi teased deliberately.
"Both," An Nuan didn't hide it.
After all, she and Xia Qiqi had grown up together since childhood, so there was nothing to be shy about.
"You really love Ye Jinghuai desperately," Xia Qiqi was obviously somewhat dissatisfied. "You went so far just to find him. Won't he be excited to jump up when he sees you?"
"He hasn't gotten off work yet, he hasn't seen me," An Nuan replied.
"I figured the first thing he'll do when he gets home is battle you for three hundred rounds," Xia Qiqi said in a very straightforward manner.
Not just An Nuan.
Even Xiao Nanchen next to Xia Qiqi was clearly somewhat embarrassed.
He glanced at Xia Qiqi with red ears.
An Nuan's face also turned red as she said, "Can you be more decent?"
"What's there to be decent about?! Isn't that just something between a husband and wife?" Xia Qiqi still felt An Nuan was being ridiculous.
An Nuan pursed her lips, somewhat perfunctorily replying, "Yes, yes, you're right about everything."
"Speaking of which, how is Ye Jinghuai in that area?" Xia Qiqi was suddenly very curious, asking earnestly.
Next to her, Xiao Nanchen was clearly stunned.
But he didn't say anything.
"Mm," An Nuan made a sound of affirmation.
Actually between her and Xia Qiqi, they were so close that they could share anything.
In her previous life, Xia Qiqi had also asked her this question, asking about Gu YanSheng.
She had answered, "Still decent."
The reluctant three words.
"More than decent?" Xia Qiqi was suddenly very excited.
Xiao Nanchen pursed his lips, really embarrassed.
"It was about the same as you and Xiao Nanchen when you slept together!"
"Xiao Nanchen and I, how can that count for anything? That night it was just me..." Xia Qiqi looked at Xiao Nanchen next to her and saw he was looking at his phone with his head down, seeming not to be listening to her at all. She said, "Anyway, mine doesn't count for anything."
"Then do it again," An Nuan suggested.
"You must be dreaming! No way!" Xia Qiqi looked disgusted.
"So you're planning for you and Xiao Nanchen to remain celibate for the rest of your lives?!"
"......" Xia Qiqi vomited blood.
She still couldn't accept even now that she would be spending the rest of her life with the man beside her!
"Forget about me, tell me about you," Xia Qiqi said impatiently but also eagerly. "Did he make you c*m?"
"......" Xiao Nanchen really couldn't listen anymore.
Women were so explicit with each other.
Or was it just Xia Qiqi?
He reached out and grabbed Xia Qiqi's phone.
When he brought it to his own ear, preparing to say something to An Nuan,
he heard An Nuan say, "Yes."
Xiao Nanchen was truly embarrassed and took a good while before saying, "It's Nanchen, An Nuan."
"......" An Nuan collapsed.
No need to fear god-like friends, just pig-like teammates.
Xia Qiqi was obviously a pig teammate.
At that moment An Nuan was so embarrassed she wanted to crawl into a hole.
"I just wanted to say, it's late. Qiqi should sleep now," Xiao Nanchen tried his best to seem like nothing was amiss.
"Okay," An Nuan also made herself seem very composed. "Then you two sleep early."
Saying that, An Nuan directly hung up the phone.
At that moment, An Nuan's face was also burning hot.
She had really lost face all the way to her ancestors!
Xia Qiqi was so unreliable! And Xiao Nanchen didn't even say anything while next to her?!
It made her spit blood!
Xia Qiqi was also spitting blood.
She looked at Xiao Nanchen furiously, "Why did you grab my phone?!"
"It's late," Xiao Nanchen put the phone aside and plugged it in to charge.
"It's only a bit past 7 right now."
"You're usually asleep by this time."
"I can't sleep tonight. Give me my phone back, I want to chat with An Nuan."
"No more chatting," Xiao Nanchen said. "It's not good for the baby."
"......"
"Sleep," Xiao Nanchen turned off the lights, leaving just one dim one on.
Xia Qiqi flipped over with her back to Xiao Nanchen.
Damn it.
She was clearly very unhappy, yet didn't know when she had started listening more and more to Xiao Nanchen!
......
An Nuan put down her phone and watched TV boredly for a while.
She also boredly looked around Ye Jinghuai's residence.
Although they had often video chatted during this past month of separation, seeing the furniture from the videos still gave her a strange feeling.
She just felt that
this simple room, compared to the super luxury mansion Ye Jinghuai lived in, made her heart ache thinking about how he got used to it.
At 8pm, An Nuan ordered takeout.
According to the local time, it would be perfect for Ye Jinghuai to come home and eat dinner at 9.
She had specially ordered western food from the top restaurant in Jiang City, and had the restaurant specially prepare red wine and candles.
An Nuan wanted to give Ye Jinghuai a surprise.
She carefully prepared dinner, before 9pm.
An Nuan thought, she should take a shower first.
It was a simple bathroom, without any jacuzzi or even a bathtub.
The shower head also wasn't comfortable, but An Nuan didn't know why her heart felt so sweet.
After showering, An Nuan changed into a strapless red dress she had brought. The beautiful dress suited her even fairer and more delicate skin. At this moment, she also quickly applied slightly bold makeup, and the woman looking in the mirror was bewitching and sexy...
Alright.
She admitted it.
Xia Qiqi was right, she wanted to...battle Ye Jinghuai for three hundred rounds!
An Nuan's heart was suppressing a passion as she nestled on the sofa waiting for Ye Jinghuai.
At 9pm, Ye Jinghuai still hadn't returned.
An Nuan thought, maybe he was held up a bit.
At 10pm, Ye Jinghuai still hadn't returned.
Although the takeout had heating functions, after so long even the best heating would be cold.
At 11pm, An Nuan felt Ye Jinghuai probably wouldn't be coming back.
Maybe he went to get a room with some woman.
But just then, she suddenly heard the sound of the door lock outside.
