This butterfly hairpin is mine.
"Sister, where are you moving to? Can I live there too?"
Ning Ze was carrying a suitcase in his left hand and a large package on his right shoulder, and he was following Ning Qian, breathing heavily.
"Don't ask so many questions, kid."
Ning Qian stood at the door waiting for the car, looking down at the apartment navigation from time to time, and keeping an ear to the ground, worried that Jiang Sha would come back at any time.
"Sister, I'm a little sad that you left like this." Ning Ze lowered his head, his hair fluttering in the wind.
"What's wrong?" Ning Qian suddenly remembered that adolescents tend to be more sensitive, so she consoled them, "Don't be sad. I'll come back to see you often."
"Really?" Ning Ze's eyes lit up.
Ning Qian glanced at him and said, "Forget about the jersey. I can give you other small gifts when I come back."
She was really afraid that Ning Ze would ask for expensive gifts again. After all, do students nowadays really not take money seriously?
Thinking of this, she pretended to ask him casually, "How much pocket money do you have a month?"
Ning Ze didn't think much about it and said truthfully: "Not much, only about 20,000 yuan."
"Twenty thousand?" Ning Qian's eyes widened. She only had five thousand when she was studying. Jiang Sha was extremely biased.
"What's wrong, sister? Is 20,000 a lot?" Ning Ze was confused. This money was just enough for him to buy two pieces of clothes and eat.
"Isn't twenty thousand enough?" Ning Qian thought about his little stash of money. "How much can you save in a month? Look, your sister doesn't have a proper job now and has to go out and wander around. Can you help me out?"
Ning Ze's eyes immediately became alert. "On your birthday a few years ago, I gave you one million. Have you spent it all?"
"Even if you've spent all your money, you can't take the sneakers back. You can't take back something you've given away."
"What are you thinking about? Am I that stingy?" Ning Qian punched him without hesitation. "By the way, what one million? Why haven't I seen it?"
Mother Chen mentioned this money, and Ning Ze also said so, so this money was indeed given to her, so where did she spend the money?
Ning Ze's fair and tender face showed confusion, and he exclaimed: "You can't even remember such a large sum of money, sister, you are my idol."
It seems that Ning Ze doesn’t know about this either, so she can only try to ask her brother when the time comes.
"beep--"
Ning Qian's taxi arrived.
"I'm leaving first. Don't tell Mom that I came back today." Ning Qian warned.
"Got it, sister. Remember to come back and see me often."
Ning Ze helped her put her luggage away and waved at her.
The young man was quite reluctant to leave, and there seemed to be tears in his clear eyes. Ning Qian was dazed for a moment. Is this the warmth of having family?
_
The next day after Ning Qian moved out, Ning Zhengqing blocked her downstairs of the apartment building.
She looked at Ning Zhengqing in shock, "Brother, why are you here?"
Ning Zhengqing seemed very angry, "Why did you suddenly move out to live alone? Quickly pack your things and come back with me."
"I don't want to go back." Ning Qian refused bluntly.
"Why?" Ning Zhengqing frowned, unable to understand why his previously well-behaved and obedient sister had become so opinionated.
"If you're afraid to go home because you're afraid Mom will be angry, I can assure you that she won't make things difficult for you when you go home."
Ning Zhengqing's expression of "stop making trouble" made Ning Qian feel that he didn't understand her situation in this family at all.
"Brother, why do you think I'm afraid of her getting angry?" Ning Qian's eyes turned cold.
Ning Zhengqing was indeed the best person to her in this family, but the love and resources he had enjoyed since childhood made it impossible for him to empathize with her.
"Ning Qian..." Ning Zhengqing's face darkened. "I know you don't want Mom to interfere too much, but her intentions are good. Don't think too badly of her. Besides, I've already told her that she respects your opinion. Just come back with me."
"I'm living well outside and I don't want to go back." Ning Qian was determined not to go back.
What's more, during the time she ran away, Jiang Sha didn't send her a single message, which made it obvious that she didn't care about her daughter at all.
"obedient……"
Ning Zhengqing grabbed her arm and pulled her into the car.
"Brother, let me go!"
"Be obedient, I won't hurt you."
Ning Qian refused to do so, and while struggling she bit Ning Zhengqing's hand.
Ning Zhengqing felt pain on the back of his hand and withdrew his hand.
While he wasn't paying attention, Ning Qian ran towards a car with license plate Bei A99999 ten meters away.
Open the back door and get in, all in one go.
Zhang Xu contacted her last night and said that her butterfly hairpin fell in Mr. Sheng's car.
Ning Qian then remembered that she had indeed worn a hairpin when she went out, but it was only worth a few dozen dollars and it was not worth making another trip, so Ning Qian asked them to help throw it away.
But Zhang Xu insisted on coming over to return it to her. After arriving downstairs today, he even gave her a license plate number.
Ning Qian clicked her tongue, wondering what kind of hairpin was worth personally driving a Maybach to deliver.
Unexpectedly, this car became her temporary shelter.
Ning Qian breathed a sigh of relief. When she looked carefully, she saw a cold and handsome man sitting on her right. He was wearing an exquisite and well-fitting suit, and looked particularly dignified and noble.
She was stunned immediately. Sheng Yuanhan was actually in the car!
What kind of extraordinary hairpin could make the precious Sheng Yuanhan go there in person?
"Mr. Sheng, could you give me another ride?" Ning Qian was afraid that if she behaved poorly, he would kick her out of the car.
"Okay." Sheng Yuanhan just glanced at her lightly and didn't ask about what happened just now.
"Ms. Ning, these are your things." Zhang Xu handed over a gift box.
Ning Qian thanked them and took it. She didn't expect that they actually had a special box for a hairpin.
As the car drove farther and farther away and Ning Zhengqing's figure could no longer be seen, Ning Qian's whole body and mind finally relaxed completely.
Only then did she realize that her arms were scratched red, leaving a trail of red marks.
Out of the corner of his eye, Sheng Yuanhan seemed to glance at her.
【Reckless】
Ning Qian was puzzled. He was secretly criticizing her in his heart again.
As if sensing that the atmosphere in the car was a bit depressing, Zhang Xu spoke up to liven it up.
"Ms. Ning, who was that just now?"
"Oh, are you talking about my brother?" Ning Qian looked up and replied.
"He's actually your brother?" Zhang Xu laughed out loud. "I didn't recognize him before, but... heh, you two really don't look alike."
Ning Qian agreed, "Indeed, they don't look like a family."
At this time, Sheng Yuanhan's eyes were slightly narrowed, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Zhang Xu gave an awkward laugh, then fixed his gaze on her gift box and asked, "Miss Ning, excuse me, is this butterfly hairpin yours?"
"Yes, this hairpin is what I wear when I go out." Ning Qian opened the box and took out the silver butterfly hairpin.
Under the light, a few lines of small words can be vaguely seen.
Zhang Xu gave a rare smile, "I didn't expect Miss Ning to be so kind and nice."
"What?" Ning Qian's hands paused. Why was he suddenly praising her? She felt flattered.
Sheng Yuanhan's usually cold voice finally warmed up a bit. "This is a medal awarded by the Morning Love Charity Foundation to caring people who make a one-time donation of one million."
The calm voice hit Ning Qian's heart so hard that she almost couldn't hold the hairpin in her hand.
The thing in her hand is actually worth one million. No, is it her love that is worth one million?
Could it be that the one million that Chen Ma and Ning Ze mentioned was all donated by her?
Ning Qian swallowed and asked, "Who does this foundation help?"
"Helping a group of poor students." Sheng Yuanhan saw her pained face and tried to comfort her, "Your love is very meaningful and deserves everyone's respect."
This was the first time Sheng Yuanhan spoke so much to her. There was less alienation between his brows and more recognition of her.
"Really?" Ning Qian murmured.
"Give it to me." Sheng Yuanhan opened his palm towards her.
"What?"
Before Ning Qian could react, a refreshing scent of sandalwood wafted into her nose. Sheng Yuanhan took the hairpin from her hand, leaned closer, and solemnly put the hairpin in her hair.
It took Ning Qian a while to come back to her senses. It was unbelievable that a man with a net worth of hundreds of billions would condescend to put a hairpin on her personally just because she donated one million.
Afterwards, perhaps Sheng Yuanhan also felt that his behavior had crossed the line, and his inner voice rang in Ning Qian's ears again.
[Just now, was I too reckless? ]
Ning Qian stole a glance at Sheng Yuanhan, and seeing that he still looked calm and composed, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart, what a hypocritical man.
But thinking about that one million, I still feel so heartbroken that I can hardly breathe.
The low-key and elegant Maybach drove smoothly into a luxurious villa. As soon as the car stopped, two rows of servants were waiting at the door, shouting in unison, "Hello, Mr. Sheng."
Sheng Yuanhan seemed accustomed to this scene and nodded slightly.
When Ning Qian followed Sheng Yuanhan out of the car, the servants' eyes instantly changed, as if she was some rare animal.
"Welcome home, sir. The hot water is ready." A maid came forward and took Sheng Yuanhan's coat.
"Um."
Sheng Yuanhan gave Zhang Xu a look and left.
When he left, the servants all went about their own business.
Ning Qian stood there at a loss. The area of this villa was several times larger than her home, and it even had a swimming pool and fountain outside.
She didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to follow Sheng Yuanhan, but seeing how pure and indifferent he looked, he probably wasn't interested in her.
"Miss Ning, please come this way." Zhang Xu walked over and said.
Ning Qian followed his steps and came to the bright hall, which was filled with a full set of golden nanmu ebony furniture, and a surge of Chinese elegance came to her face.
She looked at it in amazement as if she had never seen the world before, and touched the back of the chair carefully, fearing that it would leave a scratch, thinking that even her presence was not enough to compensate for it.
"Miss Ning, please have some tea." Zhang Xu poured her a cup of premium West Lake Longjing tea.
"Thank you. Assistant Zhang, just call me Xiaoqian."
He kept calling her Miss Ning, which made Ning Qian feel a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Xu raised his glasses and chuckled, "Xiao Qian, you're quite approachable. You don't have to call me Assistant Zhang, just call me Ah Xu."
Ah Xu...I couldn't even call him that now.
Ning Qian lowered her head and sipped the tea.
"I guess you are also curious about why Mr. Sheng came to your downstairs in person and let you into his private residence?" Zhang Xu said straight to the point.
Ning Qian put down the teacup and sighed that the tea that rich people drink is indeed full of color, aroma and taste.
She raised her eyelids and glanced at Zhang Xu. To be honest, she was not really curious about Sheng Yuanhan. He gave her the impression of being very free, as if she could see him everywhere.
"What's the reason?" Ning Qian resisted the urge to yawn and tried to appear interested.
