Chapter 696 Sincerity Or Pretense (2)

The smile on An Qi’s face stiffened. After a long silence, she suddenly laughed. “I know what you mean, Uncle Nie, but I’m surprised that you’re actually interested in Young Master Nie’s love life. I’ve heard from Yue Yue that you two are very close. Before you found Yue Yue, you were the closest thing he had to a father. Since that’s the case, you should know that he would be fickle when it comes to girls. Yes, he said he likes me today, but what about tomorrow? Tomorrow, he may like another girl. The day after tomorrow… he may have settled on another.”

After hearing An Qi’s words, Nie Xingzhi was initially shocked, but after the shock, his face suddenly darkened. “Is this how you view Yun Fan’s feelings for you?”

An Qi pursed her lips. After being silent for a while, she asked in return, “Otherwise, how do you think I should view Young Master Nie’s feelings? Trust him? Be with him? I’m just an orphan, and people call me a murderer on top of that. If he’s willing to accept all that, then I’m willing. Don’t tell me that the Nie family is willing?”

Nie Xingzhi looked at An Qi’s stern appearance. His eyes flickered, and he seemed to have understood something. He lowered his voice and said, “What if the Nie family doesn’t mind? Is it possible that you and Yunfan…”

“Uncle Nie, are you joking? This kind of thing…” An Qi tried hard to laugh, but she found that sometimes it was very difficult to laugh.

When she saw that Nie Xingzhi seemed to want to say more, An Qi felt a little flustered for no reason. She hurriedly said, “Uncle Nie, you don’t have to say anymore. I’m not worthy of him. I’ve already made this matter very clear to him. I hope you won’t interfere. It’s already over. I also hope that you won’t mention this matter again in the future.” “What do you mean by not worthy? I truly treat you as my daughter. How could my daughter not be worthy of him?” Nie Xingzhi was also anxious to say such ambiguous words.

An Qi burst into laughter. “Uncle Nie, you treat me as your daughter, but he’s your biological nephew. If I were to really be with him, wouldn’t that be…”

The expression on Nie Xingzhi’s face stiffened, and he couldn’t help but lower his head and clear his throat. He tried to hide his embarrassment. “You know that’s not what I mean. You just said that the kid likes you today, but he might like someone else tomorrow. Yes, I admit that this nephew of mine is playful. When it comes to relationships, he might not be as serious and serious as you expected in the past, but there’s one thing I can be sure of. An Qi, he’s serious about you. He has indeed had many girlfriends over the years, but he has never mentioned any of them in front of his parents and me. You’re the only one that drove him to tell us about your existence. He also firmly told us that he wants to be with you for the rest of his life. So, you’re just lacking confidence in yourself. At the same time, it’s also disrespectful to him!”

An Qi was a little scared after hearing Nie Xingzhi’s words. Her eyes suddenly widened, and she said in disbelief, “He… he really said that?”

How could it be?! How could he say that? A lifetime or something… How could it work between him and her?!

“It’s absolutely true.” Nie Xingzhi sighed heavily. “Perhaps you may think that he’s being too abrupt, but in fact, he had already fallen in love with you a long time ago, before you knew it.”

An Qi didn’t answer. She did not know whether she was shocked by the words, or if she did not know how to respond to Nie Xingzhi, so she simply kept silent.

Nie Xingzhi did not mind it and continued, “The first time I heard him talk about you was when I came back from the city. When he went to the airport to pick me up, it was the day I ran to the Zhao family and declared my relationship with Yue Yue.”

An Qi’s heart skipped a beat, and her gaze toward Nie Xingzhi couldn’t help but reveal a bit of shock. At that time, he already liked her? But she actually hadn’t noticed it at all.

Nie Xingzhi had been paying attention to An Qi’s reaction. Seeing this, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he continued, “To be honest, when I first heard that he liked you and wanted to pursue you, I didn’t think much of

it.”

An Qi’s expression changed, but Nie Xingzhi smiled. “Don’t misunderstand. It’s not that I cared about your background, but I’m worried about Yunfan. I was just afraid that he would end up hurting you.”

An Qi was stunned. She looked at Nie Xingzhi in confusion. Nie Xingzhi smiled back, helplessly, he said, “To be honest, you also know that that kid has a lot of problems. His parents don’t really care about him, and I didn’t really restrain him. So, before this, he did indeed have a period of debauchery. We know that although he likes to play, we trusted that he could control himself well. Even if he’s having a fling, he won’t go too far. So, for so many years, we didn’t really take his things to heart. But you’re different…”

Nie Xingzhi looked at An Qi kindly. “You’re Yue Yue’s elder sister. For so many years, you’ve been protecting and helping her. If it weren’t for you, Yue Yue wouldn’t have become what she is today. From this point, it’s not an exaggeration to say that you’re the benefactor of our Nie family. That’s why I gave the kid a warning. If he was going to treat you like the other women before him, just for fun, then stop as soon as possible. But he told me that he wouldn’t give up. He truly likes you. He treats you differently from the other women before him. It wasn’t easy for him to find someone he wants to share his life with. He would never give up so easily.”

An Qi’s eyes trembled, and her hands, which were hanging by her side, subconsciously clenched.

Nie Xingzhi’s eyes flashed. He sighed. “At that time, I was still skeptical, but when I saw his joyful and expectant face, I really couldn’t bear it. That was the first time I saw that guy being so persistent and expectant of someone.”

Nie Xingzhi turned to look at An Qi. He looked a little serious. “An Qi, it’s not that I’m being biased to help that kid, but can’t you tell that he’s being sincere? That kid looks aloof all the time, but no one is harder on him than himself. When it comes to relationships, just look at him. He really looks like those experienced, sweet-mouthed playboys on TV. But in reality, it’s just that he hasn’t met the person he really cares about. Perhaps even you haven’t noticed that after meeting you, that kid has completely changed. I’m sure you don’t know how that kid spends his whole day worrying about how to meet you by chance.”

An Qi was stunned. She recalled that she had always met Nie Yunfan by chance in some strange places before. Could it be that those were all…
