Chapter 169 Nian Nian goes to live with her brother
"Be safe and send a message to Daddy when you get there."
"Okay, Dad, don't worry. With Brother Duan here, I won't be in any danger." Shi Nianzhu sat in the waiting hall, with the phone against his ear, and his words were full of trust.
"Yes, yes, Duan is the most reliable." Shi Guilin teased, "You and Duan were brothers in your previous life, right? You two always go to each other's place whenever you have a little holiday, and you don't mind being clingy."
"I'm not clingy at all," Shi Nianzhu said shyly, "I've graduated, and I have a lot of vacation time. What's wrong with me going to Brother Duan's place to play?"
"Okay, okay, it's okay for us to go wherever Nian Nian wants to go."
"Dad, don't call me like that, it's too corny. I'm already eighteen years old and an adult!" Even though they were not face to face, Shi Nianzhu's ears turned red and she screamed wildly in her heart to relieve the feeling of embarrassment.
The other party kept on babbling and denying, so Shi Nianzhu quickly stopped him: "Dad, we have to get on the plane, let's stop talking for now."
After hanging up the phone, Shi Nianzhu pushed the suitcase like he was fleeing, as if the corny names were still chasing him.
The destination of this flight is Beijing.
Jiang Duan is a sophomore at Peking University.
Shi Nianzhu was busy throughout her senior year of high school and saw Jiang Duan very rarely, so as soon as she had some free time, she immediately booked a ticket to fly to Beijing.
Shi Nianzhu finished his college entrance exam in early June, leaving Jiang Duan with about half a month to go before his final semester break. During this time, he could relax and explore Jing City, with Jiang Duan by his side. After Jiang Duan's university break, they would return to Hai City together.
Two hours later, the plane taxied and landed. Shi Nianzhu imagined the scene of meeting Jiang Duan with great anticipation. She got off the plane, picked up her suitcase, and walked towards the airport exit with excitement.
Just as he was about to step out of the airport exit and walk completely outside, he was grabbed by the wrist by a force.
"You're leaving in such a hurry, don't you want someone to pick you up at the airport?"
Shi Nianzhu turned around in surprise, let go of the suitcase, and hugged it tightly: "Brother Duan!"
After hugging her, she said embarrassedly, "I thought you were waiting for me outside."
Jiang Duan naturally took over his suitcase and pushed it, and the two walked out side by side. "It's summer now."
Shi Nianzhu squinted in the scorching sun: "I know, I'm not stupid."
"Would anyone in their right mind stand outside in the middle of the night waiting for someone?"
Shi Nianzhu suddenly realized what was happening, her face flushed with heat, and she nudged Jiang Duan with her fair arm, which had obviously rarely been exposed to the sun. "I just accidentally forgot. Don't try to imply that I'm mentally unstable."
"I don't mean anything to you." Jiang Duan couldn't help laughing. "I really respect the intelligence of students who have just passed the college entrance examination."
Shi Nianzhu rolled her eyes and glanced at him several times, expressing her doubt about what he said.
"Have you reported your safety to Uncle Shi?"
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot." Shi Nianzhu took out his cell phone and started typing.
The two of them arrived at a low-key Bentley. Jiang Duan opened the trunk, put Shi Nianzhu's 20-inch small suitcase in it, then opened the car door and got in.
Jiang Duan was driving and Shi Nianzhu was sitting in the passenger seat.
"Brother Duan, do you usually drive to school?"
"I won't be so high-profile. The house I bought in Beijing is very close to the school, usually just a short walk." Jiang Duan took the steering wheel and turned at the intersection. "You're talking about what Chu Qingyu would do."
"I know it even if you don't say it." Shi Nianzhu snorted, "He's just pretending to do things. He's the kind of playboy that dad talks about."
The evaluation was very accurate, but because it came from Shi Nianzhu's mouth, the words used seemed cute, and Jiang Duan smiled knowingly.
The car stopped at a residential area with exquisite landscaping. The two got out, and Jiang Duan was still pushing the suitcase.
The two of them got into the elevator and pressed the button for the third floor. As they exited, an elderly woman greeted Jiang Duan.
Jiang Duan greeted Shi Nianzhu twice, and after they met, he took Shi Nianzhu to one of the doors and skillfully entered the password for the electronic lock.
The door opened, and he first took out a new pair of slippers from the entrance and gave them to Shi Nianzhu.
While changing shoes, Shi Nianzhu did not forget to ask, "Who is that old lady?"
After asking, he ignored the suitcase standing alone outside the door, walked into the house leisurely, and looked around and touched things like a cat patrolling its territory.
Jiang Duan changed his shoes, brought his small suitcase in, and placed it against the wall. "She's a professor of traditional Chinese culture at our school, but my major has nothing to do with her teaching, so I've never taken a single class."
"Is that so?" Shi Nianzhu saw the sofa and immediately had a flare-up of cartilage problems. He casually grabbed a pillow and leaned onto the sofa. "No wonder, when I saw her, I thought she was so elegant."
"Um."
Jiang Duan took out a new cup and filled it with warm water from the water dispenser. He brought it to the coffee table next to the sofa and sat down himself. "Are you thirsty? Have some water."
Shi Nianzhu, who was half lying down, sat up straight and took a sip of the water cup. "Brother Duan, why don't you even change the pillow? The pillows that come with the sofa are so hard and uncomfortable to use."
Jiang Duan: "I'll give you the courier address. Just buy whatever you want in exchange."
Shi Nianzhu laughed twice and acted like a spoiled child: "Brother Duan is the best."
"Right, right." He looked like he was about to reveal something big, and squeezed in close to Jiang Duan, "You'll never guess what Mu Mu and Ji Shuhe have been doing lately."
Jiang Duan smelled the faint scent of laundry detergent on him, and his attention was unconsciously diverted. He continued, "What are you doing?"
"Mumu has been trying to find out which university the girl he has a crush on goes to. He says he'll go wherever his girlfriend goes."
It's very unconventional. It's something Xi Zimu could do.
"Where's Ji Shuhe?" he continued to ask. A faint fragrance lingered, distracting him and causing him to retreat.
"Ji Shuhe is even more powerful than Mu Mu!" Shi Nianzhu was so excited that he moved closer, shortening the distance between him and Jiang Duan, even shorter than before.
The fragrance is a little stronger.
"He confessed his feelings to the girl he liked the day after the college entrance exam, and she accepted, and they're finally together! Oh my god, Brother Duan, honestly, I never thought they both had someone they liked. Tell me, am I the only one who's so focused on studying? They're really..."
"Is your laundry detergent jasmine-scented?"
"Ah? What?" The topic jumped too quickly, catching Shi Nianzhu off guard.
He was stunned for two seconds, then lowered his head and pinched the collar to pull it towards his mouth and nose. However, the movement of pulling the collar was too big, and a blinding white flashed by.
Jiang Duan silently turned his head away.
Shi Nianzhu was obsessed with the collar, sniffing it carefully for a long time, and finally said, "It seems so, but I didn't pay attention to what brand we use at home. Do you like it? I'll send a message to ask Dad."
Before he could even say "no need" he instinctively swallowed it back in a second: "Okay, ask when you have time."
