Chapter 67: Hard-Headed
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
No one was around, so she didn’t have to pretend to be obedient. However, she happened to see Ning Fengnian rushing over, so she rolled her eyes and lowered her voice. Her words were even more infuriating.
“Second Aunt, did you not expect us to live so comfortably after we separated from the family? 1 just had to be so comfortable and unwilling to share any of it with you, so you’re envious, jealous, and resentful? But what should you do? I like to see you so anxious and angry that you can’t do anything to me. From now on, when 1 eat meat, you won’t even be able to drink soup! If you dare to snatch it again, 1’11 say bad things about you, and the entire village will scold you for being unable to give birth to a son!”
Every word was heart-wrenching, and every sentence accurately hit Second Aunt Ning’s sore spot. If there were others around, she might have endured it. Since it was only her and Ning Xiaoxiao, she raised her arm and was about to slap her.
Xiaoxiao looked at her father. She also wanted to know which side he would be more biased towards, between her daughter and the people from the old residence. It was on time when someone suddenly approached from behind and pulled her away.
The force was strong and rushed, and her head bumped into a somewhat hard chest. Xiaoxiao heard a thud and looked up. “Huh, Ah Yan was half a head taller than me.”
Pfft, it wasn’t the time to think about this. Xiaoxiao stood still and blinked at Rong Yan. “Thank you.” However, she didn’t plan to get beaten up.
She would never do something as stupid as injuring the enemy and sacrificing herself. Just now, she had only planned to fall to the ground and pretended to be slapped by Second Aunt Ning again. However, Rong Yan had saved her out of goodwill. She could not possibly not appreciate it, right?
After standing still, she turned to Rong Yan and asked, “Does it hurt?”
Rong Yan shook his head and thought, “Your head is really hard.”
Then, a small hand was gently placed on his chest. It was not very strong, but it made his entire body freeze—she, she, she, she, she touched him!
Xiaoxiao didn’t know that the young master was embarrassed and shocked. She was still thinking about opening her clothes to see if they were bruised. Just before she took action, Rong Yan said softly, “It doesn’t hurt!” contemporary romance
Xiaoxiao didn’t know if it was an illusion, but she felt like a frivolous prodigal who teased a good girl.
Ning Fengnian also saw that dangerous slap. Even a passerby would be a little angry, let alone seeing others bully his daughter like this.
“Second Sister-in-law, what did you want to do just now!”
His voice was so loud that Second Aunt Ning shivered. However, she quickly reacted. “She was the one who disrespected me first and even cursed me!”
She glanced at Rong Yan, whose back was facing her, and said reasonably, “Ask him if you don’t believe me.”
Rong Yan did hear her and Xiaoxiao’s conversation, but…
He lowered his head and took a look. The girl with a hard skull secretly grabbed his sleeve and shook it. She raised her head and blinked pitifully at him. She looked different from when she was confronting Second Aunt Ning just now.
He looked away and shook his head. “I only saw this auntie wanting to hit her.”
Second Aunt Ning was first shocked by his appearance. When she returned to her senses and realized what he had said, she pointed at the two children and scolded, “Nonsense! Alright, 1 was still wondering why a guy appeared suddenly. It turns out that you’re all in cahoots.”
She wanted to say something nasty, but Ning Fengnian was there. Seeing that she would not have benefited today, she glanced at Xiaoxiao and Rong Yan with hatred and left.
Ning Fengnian went forward to take a closer look in fear. After confirming that his daughter was fine, he thanked Rong Yan. Xiaoxiao looked at Rong Yan’s thinner face and felt that such a simple thank you was not enough to express her sincerity.
It was a false alarm. Xiaoxiao still had to pick vegetables, and Ning Fengnian had to return to entertain the guests. However, two figures appeared from the wall as soon as he left. They were Ning Erlang and Shen Tianci, who covered Ning Erlang.
Xiaoxiao was not embarrassed at all. She asked, “Did you hear everything?”
Ning Erlang nodded sadly.. It was fine if he heard it, but what about the young master Shen?
