They did not chat about much. Ji Nuan did not even ask about Shi Niange. After all, with the state of her love life, what right did she have to be concerned about someone else’s love life.
However, when she was with Xiao Luye, she was able to sense that Xiao Luye did not succeed in stealing Shi Niange away.

Xia Tian gave birth to a son. Ji Nuan did not sleep for the whole night and was busy with various matters. By morning, she finally sat down in the hospital ward. She played with the little one who had already opened his eyes and listened as Xia Tian flirted with her little police officer.
“It took you so long to come back even though I was pregnant. I thought you had already abandoned the both of us. So, you actually know you should be returning. Why didn’t you just sacrifice your whole life for your country? Why did you even bother returning……”
“I already made an application to the management. I won’t be leaving for the next few months.”
“Who cares if you leave or not!” Xia Tian rolled her eyes. She then turned to the little baby on the small bed not far away. With a distasteful expression, she said, “Who on earth does this baby look like? Why is he so wrinkly and ugly?”
The nurse who had just entered giggled. “All newborns look that way. In a few days, you’ll know who he looks like. This baby’s daddy is tall and handsome. His mummy is also beautiful. He’ll definitely be an attractive baby!”
Hearing these words, Xia Tian happily returned to glaring at her little police officer. Ji Nuan saw that the little baby was only able to stay awake for a while before falling asleep and decided not to stay like an unwanted third guest. She stood up and prepared to leave.
“Ai, where are you going?” Xia Tian asked.
Ji Nuan narrowed her eyes. “Distance makes the heart grow fonder. The two of you have been separated ever since you received your marriage certificate. Am I supposed to stay here and eat your endless supply of dog food?”
Xia Tian immediately winked at her with a smile. “Didn’t you and Mo Jingshen always stuff me with dog food in the past? This is called karma. Even if you don’t wish to, you have to suffer through it!”
Ji Nuan: “.……”
She tugged the door open and left without looking back.
When she returned in the afternoon with some nourishing supplements, Xia Tian finally remembered to give an introduction. “Anyway, Ji Nuan is my best friend. Back then, when you were at the police station investigating me, she was the one who came to help. I already brought her up several times. There shouldn’t be a need for further introduction.”
As Xia Tian spoke, she pointed at the handsome and charismatic little SWAT police officer behind her back. “This is my child’s father, Ling Jichen.”
Ji Nuan and the little police offer exchanged nods.
If it wasn’t to see the little baby, Ji Nuan would never have returned for more PDA. Originally, she thought the two would be done by the afternoon. However, when she returned, Xia Tian continued grumbling on the bed. “Let me tell you, the credit for your drug trafficking reconnaissance mission has to go to me. If I had cried and made a fuss about you coming back every day, you would never have succeeded. You would definitely have been fired and have no choice but to return home and inherit your family business. You’ll tire yourself to death counting notes, I tell you.”
The little officer appeared deep in thought as he nodded. “Indeed. There has never been a pregnant lady as generous as you. I would have to head home honestly to inherit my family business. Just thinking about it makes me feel miserable. All right, all of the credit goes to you.”
Xia Tian harrumphed.
As she witnessed this scene, Ji Nuan felt her scalp turning numb.
“Ai, by the way, Nuan Nuan, I heard Xiao Ba mentioned that you’ve moved. What happened? Did someone really follow you in your previous place?” Xia Tian suddenly turned to look at Ji Nuan.
“No, I just had an encounter with a drunk man at night. The place that I was staying at didn’t have sufficiently good security, so I moved away.” Ji Nuan gently touched the little baby’s hand as she answered.
“Aiya, that won’t do. It isn’t safe for you alone, no matter where you’re staying. Feng Ling doesn’t have the time to be with you right now, does she? How about this, I’ll let the child’s father find a police force intern for you. We’ll find someone capable to be your bodyguard.” Xia Tian turned toward the man next to her. He was dressed in a rigid uniform, but his gaze was gentle. “Do you have anyone suitable in mind? Find someone smart and intelligent with good fighting abilities. Ah, that’s right. Most importantly, make sure he is single! And handsome!”
Ji Nuan: “.……”
……
This week, Ji Nuan discovered that someone was moving into Yuehu Bay. Several vehicles delivering furniture suddenly appeared in the residential area where outsiders were usually not allowed.
At the same time, she found out that the furniture was all being moved into the A1 building. The neighbors were all discussing among themselves and shared that, from what they found out, the furniture was being moved into the highest floor.
The condo with up to 400 square meters of space above her?
That’s strange. Several days ago, Mr. Vinse had reminded her to watch her safety when she went home. After all, she was the only occupant in the top five floors. He also mentioned that he had used his company’s name to attempt to contact the mystery owner and purchase the best condos on those floors but was rejected by the other party. Afterward, he had been unable to contact the owner again. Mr. Vinse even mentioned that no one knew who exactly the mystery owner was and that she had to be wary. He had even nagged about upgrading the house’s lock and keypad to be more secure.
Didn’t the sales stop because the owner was uncontactable? Why would there suddenly be furniture being moved in?
When these five floors were being built, they underwent luxurious renovation. All of the materials used were of the best quality. Aside from leaving out furniture, electronic appliances, and living necessities, everything was done perfectly well. There was nothing that needed a touch-up. Hence, she had been able to move in immediately.
And so, the sixteenth floor was…… sold? Was someone moving in?
“Miss, may I trouble you to take a step back.” Two of the workers were moving a wine cabinet, and because Ji Nuan stood right in the middle of the condo entrance, they had no choice but to ask her to move.
Ji Nuan rushed to move to the side, turning back to watch the two men work.
Earlier, she had already seen them move various tables and chairs meant for a study. Right now, they were moving a wine cabinet. The colors were all black, white, or dark blue. These colors…… did that mean that the new occupant of the sixteenth floor was a man?
Ji Nuan got off work early today and was not in a rush to head up. She sat on a bench on the lawn, watching as the men moved various items.
Bed, coffee table, cabinets……
The whole time, she did not see anything infant-related or anything a woman might need to use, such as a make-up table.
From this, she concluded that the new occupant of the sixteenth floor was a single man.
When the workers came downstairs, some of the neighbors approached in curiosity. “Was the highest floor sold? Is someone moving in?”
All of the workers shook their heads and expressed that they did not know. They then continued moving furniture.
