914 I've quit: long time ago _1

Nian lie returned to the bedroom. There was only a table lamp on the bed. The light was dim and suitable for sleeping. The bed was bulging.

He slowed down his pace and walked lightly to the bed.

Ning Qing had not been at ease before she went to bed. Her whole body was curled up in a ball, and her posture was the kind that looked very insecure.

Nian lie carefully peeked his head over. When he saw the tears on the woman's face, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

He reached out to wipe it, but the woman opened her eyes.

Did I wake you up? he asked in a low voice.

Ning Qing shook her head. I didn't really sleep.

In fact, she was not asleep at all. She had heard him when he opened the door.

Nian lie wiped away the tears on her face. His heart was in so much pain that it was churning. His voice became gentler as he said, continue sleeping. Don't think too much.

Ning Qing did not say anything and let him wipe her tears with his fingers. I can't sleep.

Nian lie lay down and hugged her through the blanket. He coaxed her gently. I'm here. Go to sleep.

She leaned close to his chest and smelled a scent that she had not smelled for a long time.

Ning Qing frowned slightly. Nian lie saw her frown. what's wrong?

You've smoked, ning Qing said with certainty as she sized him up.

Nian Xun was stunned. He didn't expect her to be able to smell it through the blanket.

Ning Qing was not too happy. what are you talking about with Nian che? why are you smoking?

It's nothing, Nian lie said.

She gave him a lukewarm look, and he had no choice but to say a few words.

I told him about his future and asked him to pay more attention to the people around him.

Ning Qing understood what he meant. do you want him to get married soon?

Without waiting for Nian lie's reply, she voiced her thoughts.

I think Nian che is doing pretty well. The company needs his help, and he's probably just trying to help you more. He's not thinking about his own matters.

Nian lie didn't like to hear her talk about other men, especially after he found out that Nian Che's feelings for her weren't simple. He didn't feel good when he heard that.

His voice couldn't help but turn cold.

no matter how busy I am, I still have to deal with important matters. I'm as old as him. I'm in charge of the Nian family and you at the same time.

Ning Qing was a little surprised by his change. you're in a different situation from him.

There's no difference. Nian lie's brows were deeply furrowed. nothing is more important than himself. How long can he walk alone? I can't be single forever.

His words were a little harsh, probably because he remembered that Nian Che's attitude was similar to hers. He had made several shirks, as if they had an invisible tacit understanding.

Even though he knew that Nian che would not do anything.

Ning Qing nodded. that's true. The sooner he gets married, the less you and I have to worry.

Nian lie didn't like to talk about this matter anymore. alright, let's not talk about this. You sleep first.

I can't sleep anymore, ning Qing blinked her clear eyes and said seriously.

I'll coax you.

Ning Qing's heart, which had been down for a long time, warmed up. She did not want him to worry, so she gave him a little push. no, you have to take a shower.

Nian lie was helpless. alright, I'll go and take a shower.

Recently, she had been a little too indulgent with him. After some thought, she pulled on his collar and asked him, didn't you stop smoking before?

What she saw was his sexy Adam's apple.

His Adam's apple moved, and a low voice came out.

Yes.

Nian lie rubbed his chin against the top of her head. you said you didn't like the smell of cigarettes.

That's why you endured it for so long?

From what she remembered, he hadn't smoked for a few months, and she hadn't smelled the smell of cigarettes on him.

Nian lie lowered his head and smiled. if you don't like it, what can I do if I don't quit?
