Chapter 1259: Chapter 1259 Petty, Domineering, and Autocratic...

When she finished her work, it was already seven in the evening, well past the time to leave the office.

"Knock knock—"

Just as Ning Yanan was pressing her temples, trying to relax, her office door sounded.

"When are you planning to starve yourself?" Mo Xiyan leaned against the doorframe, raising his eyebrows at her.

He tapped on his watch, "It’s past dinner time, I’ll treat you to dinner."

"Buzz buzz—"

As Ning Yanan was hesitating, not knowing how to refuse, her phone on the desk suddenly rang.

Seeing the caller ID, she picked up without a second thought.

"Xuan."

"Have you gotten off work yet? I want to go shopping, but nobody can accompany me and Dan Hanjie won’t agree to let me out. He’s standing right in front of me, staring as I make the call, afraid I’ll deceive him..."

Qin Youxuan’s displeased voice came from the phone.

Imagining her puffed-up little face on the other end of the line, Ning Yanan couldn’t help but smile.

Her mood, which had been glum all afternoon, finally improved a bit.

"Your voice is still hoarse, is your cold better?" Ning Yanan asked worriedly.

"It’s better, it’s better, even the doctor said that staying at home all day is bad for my health and suggested I go out more. Otherwise, do you think Dan Hanjie would let me out?"

In front of Dan Hanjie, Qin Youxuan started listing his faults.

Stingy, domineering, and dictatorial...

Finally, she concluded.

"Yaya, please come out and shop with me, I feel like I’m going to suffocate."

"Okay, I just got off work. Let’s meet somewhere, and I’ll come to you."

"Great, let’s meet at the foot of Century Square." Qin Youxuan, happy to have found a companion, hung up the phone contentedly.

Ning Yanan’s smile lingered even after the call ended.

Seeing her finally smile after a gloomy day made Mo Xiyan’s eyes twinkle.

"Sorry, my best friend asked me to go shopping, I can’t join you for dinner." Ning Yanan put her phone in her pocket, looking apologetically at Mo Xiyan.

Qin Youxuan’s call had given her the perfect excuse.

She didn’t want to go out with Mo Xiyan, nor did she want to go back to her cold, empty house alone. Having someone to shop with was the most relieving thing for her.

"Need someone to carry your bags?" joked Mo Xiyan.

"I wouldn’t dare trouble a distinguished member of the police force to carry things for me. Thanks for today, I’ll treat you another time," Ning Yanan said with a smile.

"It seems that the person who called you is very important to you. I’ve tried to make you smile all day without success, but one phone call seemed to cheer you up a lot." Mo Xiyan crossed his arms and watched Ning Yanan packing up her files, without any hurry to leave.

"She is my best friend, and I’ve always believed that my life might lack romance, but it couldn’t be without her," Ning Yanan stated openly, her gaze dimming slightly.

"Even though I once hurt her because I had no choice, she still forgave me. She was the first to tell me that as long as she could help me, nothing was considered utilitarian."

"She really is special."

Mo Xiyan knew about the incident Ning Yanan was referring to, and a hint of admiration for Qin Youxuan flashed in his eyes.

"She is just especially tolerant towards me, just like we promised each other, to never stay angry with each other. She has kept her part of the promise well; it’s me..."

Even though Qin Youxuan had said she didn’t mind, Ning Yanan always remembered the time she had kept her in the dark.

"If you feel guilty, it shows you also view her as very important. Since it was a matter of necessity, and you didn’t actually harm her, some things should be left in the past. Carrying that weight won’t make your life any better."
