Chapter 1058 The Date Has Been Set
“If you're not going, then I'm not going either,” said Nan Xing.
“Your luggage is all packed, so you should get going. I'll have my friends in the capital look out for you,” Lu Jingyuan
said earnestly.
Nan Xing was exasperated. “You know very well that I was heading to the capital for your sake. Now that you're not
going, what's the point of me going?”
“Jingyuan, I—”
Nan Xing was all set to make a heartfelt confession, but Lu Jingyuan interrupted him.
“I'm tired. I'm going to rest upstairs. You can call a cab yourself.”
Nan Xing knew that Lu Jingyuan was deliberately giving him the cold shoulder. Because of him, Lu Jingyuan had
been wronged in this incident. The relationship that was originally fine had become somewhat distant due to the
incident. If this estrangement isn't promptly mended, Jingyuan and I will only continue to drift further apart.
Lu Jingyuan was naturally a person of a calm demeanor. She preferred to keep her distance from others.
However, that clearly wasn't what Nan Xing wanted.
What he desired was closeness and intimacy instead of maintaining a distance.
So, no matter how aloof Lu Jingyuan was, he knew he had to close the distance in their relationship.
At the same time, he knew he had to act as quickly as possible.
Seeing Lu Jingyuan enter the door, Nan Xing, carrying two large suitcases, also squeezed in.
“What are you doing? Weren't you supposed to go to the airport? Why are you coming in?” Lu Jingyuan blocked Nan
Xing's way.
“I've said it before. If you don't go, I'm not going either. Do you know where I long to go the most?” Nan Xing asked
Lu Jingyuan, looking at her earnestly.
Lu Jingyuan looked at Nan Xing with a skeptical gaze.
“The place I yearn for the most is where you are. It doesn't matter if the place is bustling or desolate. As long as
you're there, it's a paradise on earth!” he said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe sudden declaration of love from Nan Xing almost made Lu Jingyuan choke. What on earth is going on?
Upon seeing Lu Jingyuan was completely taken aback, Nan Xing had a sense of satisfaction. So, is this what she's
afraid of? Indeed, she has a calm demeanor. She's icy cold. What does ice fear the most? Of course, it's fire! No
matter how aloof she may be, as long as my passion is strong enough, I can still melt her heart!
Once inside the elevator, Lu Jingyuan looked at Nan Xing with a face full of disgust. “What on earth are you trying to
do?”
“I'm not up to anything. I simply want to protect you wholeheartedly.”
“I don't need it.”
“No. You need me,” Nan Xing insisted. “You're just unwilling to confront your loneliness. Only I can soothe your soul.
Your wandering journey has been solely to meet me!” Nan Xing said.
Lu Jingyuan covered her mouth with her hand. She was truly disgusted.
Seeing this, Nan Xing thought she was moved, which made him even more pleased inside. “Actually, from the
moment I first saw you in Livingsfill, I liked you. You appear there like a great, pure, and untainted lady. You're like
—”
“Shut up!” Lu Jingyuan, unable to bear it any longer, commanded in a cold voice.
Nan Xing was taken aback. “I'm praising you here. How did I manage to upset you? What's wrong? Why are you
unhappy again?” He looked confused.
“What are you talking about? You're disgusting!” said Lu Jingyuan.
“Huh? When did I stop making sense? I'm speaking facts!” Nan Xing said, clearly frustrated.
“Speak properly, or I'll kick you out!” said Lu Jingyuan.
Nan Xing was stumped. Weren't I just speaking properly?
Upon reaching the door, Nan Xing was about to enter the house with his luggage when he was stopped by Lu
Jingyuan.
“Why are you coming to my place with two suitcases? Are you planning to stay for a long time?” she asked.
Nan Xing was overjoyed. “Can I really do it?”
“What are you thinking? Get lost!” Lu Jingyuan wasn't holding back.
“So why didn't you say anything when I was downstairs? I brought my luggage up, and now you're telling me to
leave?”
“Did I invite you up? The elevator is a public space, you have every right to enter. Upon this door, that's my
personal space, and I have the right to deny you entry. If you insist on going in, I'll accuse you of breaking into a
private residence!” Lu Jingyuan took out her phone.
Nan Xing was so angry that he was at a loss for words. It's all tricks, nothing but tricks! Not only did she ignore me
downstairs, but now she's shutting me out. Women can be so ruthless!
“All right. I'll take the luggage back, and then we can go eat.”
“I've already eaten.”
“Let's have a drink.”
“You can't hold your liquor. Let's not do that.”
Nan Xing went speechless for a moment. “Shall we have some milkshake?”
“I'm trying to lose weight.”
Nan Xing fell silent. All right. You just don't want to go out with me, right? Why beat around the bush?
“All right. Let's arrange to meet again.” Left with no choice, Nan Xing had to compromise.
Ning Ran hadn't expected to be summoned to Commoner residences so quickly to discuss her marriage with Nan
Chen.
Moreover, this time, Nan Chen didn't come along. Only she was invited by Nan Zhengde and Feng Wan.
This time around, Nan Zhengde's sudden illness seemed to have sparked a lot of thoughts in him.
He had never been so eager for Nan Chen to get married, and he wanted Nan Chen to marry Ning Ran.
However, regarding this matter, Ning Ran felt the most uneasy.
She was at a loss for words.
Feng Wan sat in her chair, a light blanket draped over her legs. In her hands, she held a cup of hot ginseng soup,
sipping it slowly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Young people these days are too restless. That Lu Jingyuan, I personally asked her to stay, but she still refused. The
weather's getting colder by the day. Why on earth would she want to go back to the freezing capital? Although
Flower City is also cold, it's much warmer than the capital! You're still the best, understanding the principles and
grasping the big picture. I don't need to waste too many words, and you can understand my meaning.” Before Feng
Wan even started discussing the main issue, she began by complimenting Ning Ran.
Ning Ran thought Feng Wan was really putting her on the spot. So, whatever you say next, I have to listen, right?
“Mrs. Nan, that's just how Jingyuan is. Actually, when it comes to younger people, just let them figure things out on
their own. There's no need for you to worry or stress over them. Taking good care of your own health is what's
most important.” Ning Ran was trying to tell Feng Wan that younger people had their own lifestyles and values. Mrs.
Nan shouldn't interfere!
Feng Wan understood those words right away.
“Hey! I know you're on good terms with Lu Jingyuan, but you have to stand by me! We must form an alliance. If Nan
Chen ever bullies you in the future, I'll stand by your side!” Feng Wan said with a stern face.
“Of course. I've always been on your side, Mrs. Nan. However, I'm telling the truth. Jingyuan and Nan Xing really
have a complicated relationship. They might need some time to smooth things out.” Ning Ran smiled.
“Actually, aside from her stubborn nature, that girl is quite all right, and she's also quite attractive. She may be
stubborn and even a bit arrogant. She refuses to tell me what her family does as if my family is inferior and not
good enough for hers. I really don't like that!” Feng Wan still harbored a grudge about that matter.
Ning Ran decided not to discuss the topic of Nan Xing and Lu Jingyuan with Feng Wan any further, as it was indeed
inappropriate to take sides. Moreover, it's not really appropriate for outsiders to judge the matters of the heart
between two people. One should not make assumptions about other people's feelings, thinking they should be this
way or that way. Emotions are inherently irrational. Only those involved can truly understand.
“Mrs. Nan, let's not talk about their affairs anymore. I believe they will handle it well,” Ning Ran said.
Feng Wan nodded. “All right. Let's not talk about them anymore. Mr. Nan and I have consulted someone about the
auspicious dates. In two weeks, a particularly lucky day is suitable for your grand wedding with Nan Chen. Marriage
is a big deal. You can also invite your folks from your maternal side over. We can all discuss and plan together.”
Ning Ran was greatly surprised. Even the date has been set?
