After all this trouble, it was already very late.
Ning Xi looked at the scenery outside the car window and asked about things at home, wondering if Aunt Fang was still there.
"Yes, I contacted her and asked her to stay with Shuo Shuo for a while tonight."
"That's good." Ning Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, Aunt Fang knows what to do. She will take good care of Shuo Shuo even if I don't call." Qin Yan knew that she was feeling bad and was still worried about Shuo Shuo, so he comforted her.
Faced with his attentiveness, Ning Xi suddenly choked up, and was glad that she married him and hired a nanny to take care of the child. Otherwise, if Shuo Shuo was implicated, she couldn't imagine what would happen.
"Thank you, Qin Yan." She said with a choked voice and red eyes.
Qin Yan glanced at her and said nothing more. He just raised his hand and rubbed her head again to comfort her.
Ning Xi quickly grabbed a tissue and wiped away the tears and snot that were about to fall out, then teased, "I haven't washed my hair yet."
Qin Yan's expression paused slightly, "I don't mind today."
"puff."
Ning Xi burst into laughter, "Then I have to thank you."
"Um."
"Ha ha!"
She didn't expect that this person would joke with others like this.
Seeing her smile again, Qin Yan's mouth corners also rose slightly.
Ning Xi had laughed enough and felt even sadder.
I unconsciously said to him, “In my eyes, my aunt is almost like my mother. I have always been grateful for her care for us sisters over the years, and I am determined to take good care of her.
But when I saw her blindly protecting Zhao Kaifeng, I was still very sad."
Afraid that Qin Yan didn't understand, she explained further, "It was Zhao Kaifeng who borrowed my aunt's phone to send a message asking me to come over. Although my aunt denied it and even protected him, I knew it must be Zhao Kaifeng."
Qin Yan frowned slightly. No wonder she was so depressed and sad. If it was true that Zhao Kaifeng and those people were colluding to harm her, but Ning Lan still wanted to protect Zhao Kaifeng, anyone would feel uncomfortable.
“Sometimes, because of something in their heart, people will deliberately cover their eyes and fail to see the truth, or they don’t want to accept the truth.
This is human nature," he said.
Ning Xi nodded. She understood, but she was still very sad.
"Maybe I'm too idealistic and stubborn. I think my aunt should be like me, should see clearly the good and bad in them, and accept the fact that they were raised wrong. I was wrong." She said softly.
Qin Yan looked at her again, suddenly turned the steering wheel and stopped the car beside her.
Ning Xi was stunned for a moment and turned to look at him.
Qin Yan also looked at her, looking at her seriously, "Ning Xi, you don't need to question yourself or deny yourself because of other people's mistakes."
"Your aunt can't see clearly, that's her problem. There's nothing wrong with you trying to make her accept the truth, because the truth is out there and she can't escape it.
It's just that she doesn't want to believe it, and even her insistence will hurt you, then you don't have to force it, but that doesn't mean you're wrong, you're not wrong."
The deep and magnetic voice, with a serious tone, told her word by word that she was not wrong and should not deny herself.
Ning Xi stared at him blankly, looking into those serious black eyes, and clearly felt her heartbeat gradually getting out of control.
She tugged at the hem of her clothes slightly and said, "Qin Yan, why are you so nice to me?"
Qin Yan was slightly startled. Facing her equally serious eyes, his heart tightened and his heartbeat became irregular.
"I told you that you are my wife. Even if it's just for one day, it's my responsibility to protect you."
Of course, he wouldn't have done this if she wasn't worthy, but now it seems that she is worthy.
His dark eyes were deep and serious, and although they did not contain any love, they still made her heart beat fast.
And she suddenly realized that maybe some things do not need to be expressed. When getting along with each other, you should see each other's strengths and tolerate each other's shortcomings. If things go on like this for a long time, when you look back, you will find that everything has already come to fruition.
"Okay, I will do that too." I will also protect him.
Eyes so beautiful that they could charm people's hearts, curved into a crescent moon, and a bright and brilliant smile, but it was like a myriad of prosperous things blooming in front of his eyes, dazzling his eyes and even more bewildered his heart.
Qin Yan pursed his lips tightly, gripped the steering wheel tightly with his hands, and the rhythm of his chest was completely disordered.
…
After Ning Xi left, Ning Lan panicked and called Zhao Kaifeng several times, but he didn't answer.
In the end, she had no choice but to find Zhao Kailin.
"Mom, why are you calling me back so late at night?" If Zhao Kailin hadn't gotten a thousand yuan from coaxing Ning Lan last time, she would never have come back just because of a few phone calls from her.
"Linlin, your brother and your sister..." Ning Lan's lips trembled slightly, not knowing what to say.
Seeing her hesitant, Zhao Kailin frowned and asked, "What happened? Did they fight?"
"Quite a few, yes..." Ning Lan hesitated for a moment, but still told her what Ning Xi had said.
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhao Kailin's eyes when she heard this, but she was different from Ning Lan. She knew what Zhao Kaifeng was doing. Even the Fourth Brother was introduced to Zhao Kaifeng by her through her boyfriend.
Could it be that Zhao Kaifeng really used Fourth Brother to teach Ning Xi a lesson?
"I know your brother can be quite courageous sometimes, but he certainly wouldn't dare do such a thing. There must be some misunderstanding, but he won't answer my calls. Why don't you go back to your grandma's house and check on him?"
Ning Lan was worried about her son, but she didn't dare go back to the Zhao family alone. The days when she was beaten at the Zhao family had become a shadow in her mind. Since she moved out, she had hardly ever gone back.
