Chapter 144. Her Brother Just Couldn''t Keep An Aloof Front, Could He?
Im involved in a case of theft, Luosang said as she recounted the incident to Nian Xi.
After hearing her story, Nian Xi looked at the officer who brought Luosang in with fury, Du Zheng, are you tired of living? Do you have any idea who she is? She is my friend; how could think she was a thief? She didnt steal a thing when she lived with my brother at the vi, but you think shed be tempted by some petty cash?
Lived with your brother? The police officers drew in sharp breaths, they all knew who Nian Xis brother was. If this youngdy stayed with him before, she must have a deep rtionship with Nian Junting.
Everyone was looking at Luosang differently now.
Luosangs face was dark with worry, Its not what you guys think, Mr. Nian and I
I know, I know, you must have been framed, Du Zheng interrupted her, How could you be a thief if youre Miss Nian and Mr. Nians friend?
Before Luosang could rify herself, Nian Xi interjected, Exactly, weve all been to university before and we know how important your reputation is as a student. You must investigate this case properly and give Luosang her due justice. And Sansan, my brother would be so thrilled to know that youre still in Xia City. He didnt tell me explicitly, but I can tell he had a difficult time getting used to things after you left. Ill call him right away. She turned and dialed her brothers number.
Why are you calling me sote in the night? Dont tell me youre in trouble again, the voice on the other end was groggy and croaky; he must have just woken up.
Youre already asleep at 11pm? Youre practically an old man already, Nian Xi teased him mischievously.
What do you want? Im going to hang up, Nian Junting was annoyed. He hated beingbelled as a lonely single.
Hey, please dont! Guess who I met at the Cheng He Police Station? Its Luosang! God, you dont know how beautiful she looks now, and she told me shes only twenty-two years old
What are you guys doing at the police station? cried Nian Junting.
Nian Xi ignored him and continued, Someone used Luosang of stealing, I dropped by the station by coincidence. Anyways, the main point is that she is very beautiful now
Cheng He Police Station you say? Iming over right now. If Luosang asks, tell her Iming to pick you up. Why dont you ask me to pick you up over the phone now for good measure? Nian Junting was already getting dressed.
Nian Xi was confused but she quickly made sense of the situation. ncing at Luosang, she coyly asked, Brother, will you pleasee and pick me up? I didnt drive to work today, and itll be so dangerous for a pretty girl like me to be wandering the streets.
Luosang had shivers down her spine listening to Nian. She was a police officer, wasnt she? If it wasnt safe for her to walk the streets at night, Luosang wondered who would be.
Sansan, my brother ising to pick us up, she grabbed Luosangs arms cheerily after hanging up. Her brother just couldnt keep an aloof front, could he? She was amused that he was going to rush here immediately after hearing Luosang had be very pretty.
Nian Xi was nning to help her brother: a fool in love. She would be so pleased if Luosang became her sister-inw. Luosang was someone who doted on her and itpensated for the fact that Nian Junting wasnt the most caring brother out there.
