Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie-Chapter 1029: The Clever Girlfriend

"I can sense it, Lingying really likes you as her brother. If she knew you were..." Ji Weitian noticed Leng Jian’s face turned sour and abruptly stopped speaking.

After hesitating for a moment, she opened her mouth to remind him, "I still think you should tell her the truth as soon as possible."

The conversation between the two was not heard by anyone else.

As soon as the work hours ended, Ji Weitian rushed everyone out of the laboratory to rest.

She stayed herself to continue organizing today’s experiment data.

Leng Jian was as usual, offering to stay and help her.

Ji Weitian didn’t agree.

"Today’s experiment data mostly involves verification, the workload isn’t big, I can handle it by myself. You should go back and rest early."

To say Ji Weitian works hard, Leng Jian is no exception.

Every time Ji Weitian works overtime, Leng Jian stays behind to lend a hand.

If she faces issues that are inconvenient for her to handle, Leng Jian must help to resolve them.

So whenever there’s a chance to rotate shifts for rest, Ji Weitian wouldn’t let Leng Jian stay in the lab.

Leng Jian slightly furrowed his brows. Just as he was about to say something, Ji Weitian spoke ahead of him, "You ran into Lu Jing downstairs today, aren’t you worried Lu Jing might sneak off to Lingying’s house while you’re working overtime?"

"He wouldn’t dare!"

Leng Jian’s face instantly turned somber.

Though his words said otherwise, his heart wasn’t so sure.

Ji Weitian took note of his reaction, promptly stood up from her computer, and lightly patted his shoulder.

"Think carefully about my advice. The truth will come out sooner or later. Let Lingying know you’re her real brother early on, and surely, in her heart, Lu Jing can’t compare to you."

"I know."

Leng Jian replied in a muffled voice and turned and left the lab.

Seeing his hurried departure, it seemed he was off to find Zhang Lingying.

Ji Weitian’s eyes glimmered with amusement, and once Leng Jian’s silhouette vanished, she immediately called Qin Nanyu to report her good deed.

"If Leng Jian can resolve his inner conflict and acknowledge his sister, I am absolutely the main contributor. Boyfriend, why am I so clever?"

"..."

"You’re definitely blessed from your past life, to find such a clever girlfriend in this one."

Someone shamelessly praised herself.

Qin Nanyu paused, and then murmured, "Clever girlfriend, guess how your dear boyfriend is feeling right now?"

The two were on the phone, completely unable to see each other, yet Ji Weitian exaggeratedly pinched her fingers and guessed.

"Jealous!"

"..."

"Right now, you’re definitely grinding your teeth wanting to devour me, thinking that my concern for my good friend Leng Jian far outweighs my concern for you, my boyfriend."

"..."

Qin Nanyu seemed struck by her words, left speechless.

His chest was still bubbling with jealousy.

Before he could adjust his mindset to sell his misery, Ji Weitian had already started laughing slyly.

"I’m working overtime tonight and not going home, you can’t reach me, hehe~"

Getting teased by his girlfriend, Qin Nanyu: "..."

-

Meanwhile.

Ji Weitian’s words were like a spark igniting a fire in Leng Jian’s heart.

He left the laboratory and immediately contacted Zhang Lingying, eager to see her.

The phone was quickly answered.

Having been apart for less than half an hour and receiving his call, Zhang Lingying was somewhat surprised, paused for a few seconds before calling out: "Brother Leng Jian."

Leng Jian calmed himself down, walked to his car, opened the door and sat inside, asked in a deep voice.

"Do you have time now? I want to come over and talk with you about something."
