Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 685: Avoid It at All Costs

Ji Weitian seemed stunned by his shouting, and after a few seconds, she retorted, "I’m already an adult, why do I need to report to you wherever I go?"

"..."

Qin Nanyu was at a loss for words.

Ji Weitian had been avoiding him these past few days. Since he had a high fever that night, every time he tried to talk to her, she would avoid him as if she were afraid, making him subconsciously feel she did not want to see him.

His emotions suddenly became somewhat uncontrollable.

Now, hearing her words, he couldn’t find anything to say in response.

In front of Zhang Lingying, he couldn’t act as he normally did with Ji Weitian, throwing a tantrum and demanding she take responsibility for sleeping with him.

If he really said that in front of others, Ji Weitian would probably come back and beat him to death on the spot.

His will to survive made Qin Nanyu choose silence.

After a few seconds of thought, he spoke again, "Take Ruirui and Yaoyao and stand still, I’m coming to pick you up now."

Qin Nanyu was about to leave when Zhang Lingying stopped him, "Did you find them?"

Qin Nanyu paused mid-step, arched an eyebrow at her, and didn’t respond.

He had never been in the habit of explaining his whereabouts to anyone. Although he had been fairly polite to Zhang Lingying, owing to the help she provided, if she demanded more, she would be overstepping.

"I’m not implying anything else, it’s just that your villa is too big, and it’s boring for me to go back alone so early. Wherever you are going, can I come along? I promise I won’t interrupt your date; I’ll just eat, then leave."

Zhang Lingying raised three fingers, pleading sincerely.

She had just moved to a strange place and didn’t know anyone.

She simply wanted to have a meal with a friend, which wasn’t too much to ask.

Qin Nanyu glanced at her but didn’t refuse. He stepped past her and walked downstairs.

Zhang Lingying immediately followed him, happily chatting about Ji Weitian.

"How did you meet her? Miss Ji doesn’t seem like a lab technician; she probably doesn’t understand what you are doing, right? Do you have common topics of conversation?"

"When I came home the other day, I saw you two standing in the yard looking upset; could it be that I walked in right as you were arguing?"

"When you were on the phone just now, you mentioned something about Ruirui... and Yaoyao? Who are they?"

"When couples don’t even know where the other person is or what they’re doing and fight at the drop of a hat, have you ever thought whether you two really are suitable..."

"Shh—"

Zhang Lingying hadn’t finished her last sentence when Qin Nanyu abruptly pulled the car over to the side of the road and gave her a cold sideways glance.

"If you plan to keep asking like this, I’ll let you out of the car right now."

"..."

Being wise is knowing when to stop.

Zhang Lingying immediately made a zipping gesture across her lips, assuring that she would keep quiet.

Considering her serious attitude towards the lab work, Qin Nanyu chose not to dwell on her baseless speculations and resumed driving.

Zhang Lingying became significantly quieter and didn’t speak again.

Until the car stopped at the next traffic light, Zhang Lingying cautiously indicated to Qin Nanyu that she wanted to speak.

"I won’t bother you, I just want to ask this last question; where are we going now?"

"Kindergarten."

Qin Nanyu’s lips slightly parted.
