Looking at Ning Xueyan's mischievous look, the young man in white could not help smiling. He sat opposite her and looked around. Suddenly his face sank. "Where have your maids gone?"
"Tell me first, where is your servant?" Ning Xueyan smiled and asked Ming Yuanhua. What a coincidence that she could see Ming Yuanhua here.
After Ming Yuanhua knew her situation and her misfortune, he had no longer ignored her.
"There was a man who was surreptitiously speaking to someone when I saw him. He looked like he was from your house, and I wanted to ask if there was anything wrong, so I followed him." Ming Yuanhua smiled indifferently and took over the teacup from the owner of the tea house.
The rescuer talked with the one who was rescued and they drank tea together. Seeing this, the crowd felt bored and they all dispersed.
"Let me guess, is that person the reputable second son of the Xia family?" she asked in a pleasant mood.
Earrings and hairpins? Ning Xueyan looked at Wen Xueran with meaningful eyes. She frowned slightly. People like him could really do this just for fun. When they met the second time, he questioned her with a sword about a nun's whereabouts. Was he looking for that Jingkong? Such a problem suddenly flashed through her mind, which was abrupt but reasonable. She just felt that Wen Xueran was not seeking fun by sitting up there. But if he was not, what would be his target? The earrings, hairpins, or pendants? She was shocked. If he questioned her with a sword in the last life because he was looking for Jingkong, whom she knew about, he was likely looking for her or the earrings in her hand. It was her family affair and she had never heard that it had any relationship with the Princely Heir of Commandery Prince Min. In her last life, when she was in the regions south of the Yangtze River, her father and mother had never
Ning Xueyan and her sisters walked along the street, enjoying the lanterns and laughing. After a short while, they met the housekeeper, who came over to tell them that they had booked room No. 9 on the third floor of Linjiang Restaurant. They had known they had booked a room, but they didn't know which one it was. "Ladies, Marquis and Madam Dowager have arrived, and you can come later," the housekeeper said with a smile. "All right. I will bring them to the restaurant soon," Ning Qingshan nodded and said gently. She was the eldest one among the girls, so she made the decision. Ning Lingyun and Ning Xueyan would not disagree with her. While Ning Qingshan was talking to the housekeeper, Ning Xueyan and Ning Lingyun continued to look at the lanterns. "Fourth Young Lady, Fifth Young Lady, why is that person following us all the time?" Qingyu suddenly pointed at the corner not far away and asked Ning Lingyun and Ning Xueyan, "Does h
"Your Royal Highness, my cousin sent news to me about my uncle. It is always not convenient for me to go out, especially when I have to meet my uncle and cousin." Ning Xueyan hesitated for a moment and told him the truth. But then, she told him somewhat ironically. "Of course, the scene that 'the hero saves a beauty' you saw earlier was not planned by my cousin. After all, the 'hero' did not get the chance to save 'the beauty' this time, and wasted the effort in specially preparing the plot" "Was that hero named Xia Yudong, the second son of the Xia Tian Family?" Suddenly, Ao Chenyi smiled and asked leisurely. He seemed to be in a good mood. He even poured Ning Xueyan a cup of water and handed it to her, which was very rare. "Yes." Ning Xueyan took the cup and admitted that it was true. "Did you deliberately let the housekeeper in your manor witness this scene?" Ao Chenyi's eyes narrowed, and his smile was even more brilliant now.
Although there was very little light, Ning Xueyan clearly knew that the woman below was Ning Qingshan. "She was with me earlier. How could she go on a rendezvous here, only after such a short while?" A graceful man with a gentle look, was sitting on a chair. When Ning Xueyan saw that the man was Ao Mingyu, her heart froze all of a sudden. "What are they doing behind closed doors, after they tried to avoid all the others?" Ning Xueyan's head bent lower and lower, for she wanted to get a clearer look at the scene. Ao Chenyi, who was beside her, also pressed close to her, his handsome face showing some excitement. Leaning close to Ning Xueyan, Ao Chenyi looked down together with her. Inside the room, Ao Mingyu, who was in formal attire, looked at Ning Qingshan, and asked her mildly, "Third Young Lady, what can I do for you?" "Cousin, I did not plot the things that happened in the other courtyards. I was wronged. Don't you know tha
"I never expected that my cousin didn't know how to show his tenderness toward women!" Ao Chenyi narrowed his eyes and glanced at Ning Xueyan's face, showing her his enchanting and beautiful smile. He then reached out to put back the tile. Carrying Ning Xueyan in his arms, Ao Chenyi turned around and jumped away. The wind went whistling past Ning Xueyan's ears. Ning Xueyan felt that the wind sounded so loud that she unconsciously buried her into Ao Chenyi's arms and grasped his clothes. Ao Chenyi returned much faster than he came here. At first, Ning Xueyan didn't adapt to such a fast speed. But suddenly, everything went black before her. It turned out that Ao Chenyi put the hat of the cloak on her head. All of a sudden, Ning Xueyan felt that she was surrounded by warm darkness. It had never occurred to Ning Xueyan that she could feel so warm even in the dark. It turned out that the sun was not the only thing that could make people feel warm
Ning Qingshan was unlucky to the extreme! This time, it was jolly hard luck on her! After saying goodbye to the Third Prince, she came out in a hurry, for she also knew that she could not stay outside for too long. Or, others would suspect her. But she was knocked to the ground by someone just as she was out of the alley hurriedly. What was worse, she happened to fall into a small puddle. Though the maid quickly went to support her, she still stumbled for a couple of paces and stepped into the puddle when she moved back. Because of this, even the lower hem of her dress got dirty. But it was too late for her to change the clothes at this time. Thus, she had to wipe the dirty corners of her dress and went straight to Linjiang Restaurant with her maids. But to her great surprise, just when she turned a corner, she saw Ning Zu'an coming with some servants. Ning Zu'an was stunned as he spotted Ning Qingshan before him and then became a little ang
"Fifth Sister, what happened to Second Sister? First Brother and I were not there. How did that happen?" Ning Qingshan took Ning Xueyan by the hand, and lowered her voice as if she was trying to keep the peace. "Does Third Sister want to know about this?" Ning Xueyan smiled faintly, with an indifferent look. She removed her hand from Ning Qingshan's hand, and cast her eyes on Ning Huaiyuan and Ning Qingshan, calmly. This was the price that Ning Huaiyuan paid for helping Ning Qingshan. It seemed that Ning Huaiyuan wanted to do something to Ning Yuling, either to suppress her and let Ning Yuling take the blame? However, she did not want to intimately discuss Ning Yuling's matter with them. "Yes, Fifth Sister, can you tell us what happened, exactly?" Although Ning Qingshan was unhappy that Ning Xueyan pushed her hands away, she still gave a gentle smile, because she was shrewd and deep. "No, I can't tell you exactly
At this point, there was no need to say too much. The meaning was all inside it.Ning Huaiyuan and Ning Qingshan chatted warmly with each other for a while. Then they came to Ning Xueyan. They normally weren't so kind to her, but now both of them came here. It seemed that they came with evil intention.Anyway, it was impossible that Ning Xueyan first mentioned Ning Yuling.Madam Dowager was also old and experienced. She looked at Ning Huaiyuan indifferently and showed some disapproval. Ning Xueyan was no longer who she used to be. If everything went well, she would marry into the imperial family. No matter which family she married into, what Ning Xueyan represented was the same as Ning Qingshan, so she could not be offended.Seeing the sadness in her grandmother's eyes, Ning Huaiyuan reacted quickly. He pressed his hand against his nose with malicious intent and bowed to Ning Xueyan, saying apologetically, "Fifth Sister, I'm sorry.
