Chapter 213
"I was wrong, Master Leng! I really know I was wrong, please forgive me this time! I shouldn't have provoked you, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."
Xu Lan knelt on the cold ground with a look of horror on her face, her body trembling, tears pouring out like a flood. She looked at Leng Zexi pitifully and begged bitterly.
However, Leng Zexi just stood there expressionlessly, watching everything coldly, as if the crying woman in front of him had nothing to do with him.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "I'm not the one you should apologize to."
Hearing this, Xu Lan was shocked all over, and she instantly understood in her heart - Leng Zexi wanted her to apologize to Xia Ruoan.
The Xia Ruo'an whom she had once regarded as an ant, looked down upon and even ridiculed? Xu Lan bit her lips tightly, her heart filled with resentment and resentment.
But the situation is stronger than people right now. If we don’t do as we are told, the consequences will be disastrous.
So, despite her reluctance, she finally turned her head slowly and looked at Xia Ruoan with complicated eyes.
At this time, Xia Ruoan was standing quietly aside, his eyes cold but firm.
When she saw Xu Lan's gaze, she met it without flinching and said calmly, "I don't accept your apology. It's obvious that you don't really want to admit your mistake. Such an apology is meaningless to me. I don't want it."
"Okay, Xu Lan, put away your hypocritical apology. Ruoan won't accept it. Don't keep saying that Ruoan is your substitute. How can you compare to Ruoan? You are a married woman who wants to be a mistress after her husband died. How can you say that?"
"I'm ashamed of you." Xu Nan's eyes flashed with disdain.
She had pretended to be Xianglin Sao in the first place, so that her grandparents would favor her and she would be scolded.
Now he is still acting like a white lotus.
Xia Ruoan ignored Xu Lan and reached out to hold the handle beside him, trying to stand up.
At this moment, Leng Zexi, who had been paying attention to Xia Ruoan's every move, hurried forward and carefully helped her up.
At the same time, he whispered, "Slow down, be careful not to fall." As he spoke, his originally stern face revealed a hint of imperceptible tenderness.
Xia Ruoan raised her head and looked at Leng Zexi who was so close to her. Suddenly, she noticed that his hand was injured at some point and blood was slowly oozing out of the wound.
She couldn't help but frown, her face showing worry, and asked anxiously: "Your hand is injured? How did it get like this? You are so careless! Let's go and treat the wound first."
As she said that, she pulled Leng Zexi and prepared to walk towards the infirmary.
"It's okay, let's go in quickly! After picking persimmons, we'll go home directly. The wound is not deep and it will heal soon." Leng Zexi frowned slightly, looked at the scar on his hand which was not deep but still somewhat glaring, and said casually without any concern.
At this time, Ouyang had already led Zhou Ling'er and walked over quickly.
"There is a special lounge in Nanyuan. Why don't you go in and treat the wound? It would be bad if it gets infected." Ouyang said as he looked at the wound on Leng Zexi's hand with concern.
"Senior Brother, Sister Ling'er, you are here!" Xia Ruoan's eyes moved and he greeted the two of them with a smile on his face.
"Well, here we are. Zhou Mufan, it seems that you are determined to make your fictitious company a thing of the past!"
Ouyang glanced at Zhou Mufan, a sneer of disdain appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he sneered mercilessly.
"Ms. Xu, please stop talking nonsense in the future, okay? I don't want to hear any more nonsense like Ruo'an is your substitute!"
"Besides, you are not qualified to be your substitute for my Ruoan! Whether it's character, appearance or talent, which one of them is not a hundred times or a thousand times better than yours?"
"If there's one thing that can compare to my Ruoan, it's probably your face as thick as the corner of a city wall and your shamelessness without any bottom line!" Ouyang crossed his arms, looked at Miss Xu from head to toe with contempt in his eyes, and mocked her sharply.
After hearing this, Xia Ruoan looked at Ouyang in disbelief. Was this what her gentle and refined senior brother said?
Zhou Linger smiled when she saw Xia Ruoan's surprised look. It was just that Ouyang pretended to be gentle and elegant because he didn't want Ruoan to dislike him. In fact, Ouyang was very sharp-tongued.
"Okay, Ruoan, let's go in quickly." Ouyang no longer paid attention to Xu Lan, whose face turned blue with anger. He reached out to push Zhou Ling'er, then turned to Leng Zexi and Xia Ruoan and smiled.
"Okay, let's go in and treat the wound first." Xia Ruoan was worried about Leng Zexi's injury, so he pulled him to the lounge.
"Brother, you take Sister Ling'er over first. I'll take Brother Leng to treat his wounds. Nan Yi, you guys go over first as well."
The area where persimmons are grown is in two directions from the lounge, so Xia Ruoan let them go first.
"Okay. We'll wait for you over there." Nan Yi had followed Xia Ruoan in before and knew the way.
"It's really okay." Leng Zexi felt warm in his heart and regretful when he saw Xia Ruoan's caring look. If he had known earlier, he would have kicked her with his foot, so that Ruoan wouldn't worry about him so much.
"If I said there is something, then there is something. Go and treat your wound first. There are plenty of persimmons here, and there will be more if we go there later. Even if there is none, there is still next year. The most important thing is to treat your wound first." Xia Ruoan said stubbornly.
When Xu Lan saw Xia Ruoan and the others leaving like that, she was scared and grabbed Xu Nanyiyi.
"Nan Yi, you and Xia Ruoan are good friends, please help me. I am your blood sister, you can't just ignore my life or death." Xu Lan hoped that she could plead for her.
Xu Nan pushed them away and said, "Xu Lan, don't you feel disgusted?"
"Sister, we are not even sisters. Have you forgotten how you harmed me in the first place? In order to make grandpa and grandma like you, you framed me and slandered me time and time again, causing grandpa and grandma to punish me by kneeling. Have you forgotten all this?"
"And because my brother loved me and you wanted to snatch my brother away, you pushed me into the lake. If my eldest brother hadn't come looking for me, I would have been killed by you. Have you forgotten all this?" Xu Nanyi looked at her and said ridiculously.
When Liang Zian heard this, he took Xu Lan's hand away.
"Stay away from my Nanyi, you evil person." Liang Zian pulled Xu Nanyi away.
"Nan Yi, next time you see her, stay away from her, or you'll get hurt by her. She's obviously not a good person." Liang Zian said worriedly.
