Jiang Yuning lowered his head, his clear eyes flashing with rare anger and lingering fear. "Xixi, now is not the time to joke around. Do you know that the two of us almost had sex just now?"
Nian Xi wanted to comfort him, but when she heard his harsh tone, she was annoyed. He had never treated her like this before. "I'm the one who dragged you into this. If you didn't come to my house to take care of me, you wouldn't be in this situation."
"That's not what I meant …" Jiang Yuning mumbled. He didn't know what to do, so he hugged her tightly again and said in a trembling voice, "I don't want you to get hurt …"
Nian Xi was stunned. A moment later, she buried her face in his chest and said, "Are you silly? In that situation, if we were to die, both of us would die together. Why would we care about each other?"
"Miss Nian, are you alright?" At this moment, three tall and sturdy men rushed in from the bottom of the stairs. The three of them looked like they had yet to recover from the shock.
"You are …" Nian Xi was a little confused. She had never seen these three people before. "Are you from the property management?"
"No, we were hired by Mr. Nian Junting to protect you." A tall and sturdy man stepped out and said, "My name is Meng Zhan. Just now, when we were in the parking lot, the elevator suddenly went dark. We were scared. Luckily, you're fine."
"Protect me?" Nian Xi let go of Jiang Yuning with a surprised look. "When did you guys get close to me?"
"We've been protecting you ever since you were discharged," Meng Zhan said. "Mr. Nian was worried about you, but he was afraid that you would object, so he asked us to protect you secretly."
"I didn't know anything about it," Nian Xi murmured. It was a great humiliation for a police officer.
However, she could also understand that Nian Junting was probably worried after the conversation she had with Nian Qingyun at the Lantern Festival. He was worried that someone would hurt her because of Jiang Yuning, so he sent someone here.
She was touched. Her brother usually looked like he was smeared with poison, but he was still very protective of her at critical times.
"Miss Nian, you guys go up first." Meng Zhan frowned as he stared at the elevator. "We'll get someone from the property management to come over and take a look. Qi Xiang, send Miss Nian up. Don't take the elevator for now."
"Alright, thank you." Nian Xi didn't dare to sit down anymore.
Jiang Yuning carried Nian Xi on his back while Qi Xiang helped her move the wheelchair.
…
Back upstairs, Jiang Yuning sat on the sofa and held Jiang-jiang in his arms. He didn't say a word. His handsome face was still pale.
However, the innocent and naive Jiang-jiang kept squirming in his arms.
Nian Xi drank a large glass of water, wondering if it was a coincidence, or if someone was really trying to hurt her.
The general manager showed up fifteen minutes later with an apologetic look on his face. He knew who Nian Xi was. When Nian Junting bought this apartment, Nian Junting had specifically told him to keep an eye on Miss Nian, who was living alone in this apartment. Nian Junting had told him to keep an eye on her.
After what happened this afternoon, he was so scared that his heart almost stopped beating. He was so glad that the elevator didn't fall. Otherwise, he would have to spend the rest of his life in prison.
"Miss Nian, I'm really sorry to have given you a fright." The general manager bowed deeply to her and apologized. "Our elevators are checked and repaired on time every week. I don't know why such a terrible thing would happen. I've already asked the elevator maintenance staff to investigate."
