Qin Yan glanced towards the kitchen, gave her another look, and then walked towards the balcony.
Ning Xi turned around and followed.
Shuo Shuo looked at them and didn't follow them. Instead, he turned on the TV himself.
"Your aunt isn't stupid, it's just that the child is hers. No matter how much you say, she won't listen. In the end, it will only make your relationship fade."
On the balcony, Qin Yan looked at her and said.
This was also the reason why he stopped her from standing up for Ning Lan before.
No matter how outrageous Zhao Kaifeng and Zhao Kailin were, they were still Ning Lan's children. She took out her anger on them for Ning Lan's sake. Although this helped Ning Lan, Ning Lan might not thank her, and might even feel resentment towards her.
Although these words may not sound pleasant, they are the most real human relationships.
Ning Xi actually knew it in her heart, but she wanted to protect Ning Lan too much, and because of her weakness, she felt a little disappointed in her. She just hoped that she could see the reality clearly and give up those unrealistic delusions.
But she ignored the fact that she was a mother, and no mother could be so cruel as to blame her own child.
What's more, Ning Lan has always felt that she owed her two children in the past, so she is naturally more tolerant of them.
Seeing Ning Xi fall silent, Qin Yan hesitated for a moment, then patted her shoulder and said, "You've done a good job. There are some things she needs to figure out on her own."
Ning Xi took a deep breath, and as the cool air entered her heart and lungs, the surging resentment dissipated a little.
Nodding, he said, "You're right, I was thinking too one-sidedly."
Qin Yan looked at her humbly accepting the offer and said nothing more, "Go in."
"Um."
Because these things happened right after I arrived, the lunch was a bit dull.
After they finished eating, Ning Xi helped clean up and then said goodbye to Qin Yan and Shuo Shuo.
Ning Lan originally wanted to say a few more words, but thinking about how Qin Yan had been so accommodating to Ning Xi before, she didn't say anything. She just asked them to be careful on the road and come back when they had time.
Only after Qin Yan drove away from the old community did Zhao Kailin come out from her hiding place and go back to Ning Lan.
Of course, Ning Xi didn't know all this.
When Shuo Shuo got home, he felt sleepy. When he fell asleep, Ning Xi wanted to go to the study, but was stopped by Qin Yan halfway.
Ning Xi: “?”
Qin Yan was tall and strong and stood in front of her. Although he didn't feel as cold as before, she had to look up at him.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Doctor Ning, shouldn't you give me an explanation? Huh?"
Ning Xi was even more puzzled, "What explanation?"
Qin Yan narrowed his eyes and deliberately took a step forward.
What followed was that even though Ning Xi tried to restrain herself, the aura she had developed since childhood still made her feel a little nervous. She wanted to step back, but he grabbed her arm.
"Doctor Ning," he lowered his head, his fresh masculine scent falling on her hair, "I heard you found a father for me? Huh?"
Ning Xi: “!!!”
Is this the time for reckoning?
"Ahem, well..." Ning Xi coughed dryly, and couldn't help but glance elsewhere, feeling guilty as if he had been caught doing something bad.
But just thinking about it, she didn’t do anything!
That day at the police station, she never admitted that Lawyer Yan was Qin Yan from beginning to end. She just didn't explain it and just followed the Zhao family's words.
"Well, well, it's, it's a misunderstanding!" She said a little nervously and told her what happened at the police station that day.
"So you just took the opportunity to recognize me as your father and became my stepmother?" Qin Yan continued to look at her, his sexy and deep voice tickling Ning Xi's heart like a feather.
And her face turned completely red.
"I, I didn't. I never said that, and..." She thought of something and wanted to refute it, so she turned her head away subconsciously.
The red lips brushed his jawline and stopped at the corner of his mouth. Time seemed to be paused at this moment. Both of them were stunned, and the feeling at the corner of their mouth and lips was infinitely magnified.
Ning Xi's pupils dilated, and her red face suddenly turned several shades hotter.
She quickly stepped back.
Qin Yan also quickly let go of her hand, but compared to her panic, he acted as if nothing had happened.
Well...if that ear hadn't turned red.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, don't think too much." Ning Xi quickly wiped her lips and apologized casually.
She was afraid that he would misunderstand and think that she was taking the opportunity to get close to him and take advantage of him or something.
When Qin Yan saw her action, his originally confused mood sank slightly and he calmed down again.
His eyes were slightly cold, and he said calmly: "It's okay, be careful next time."
As he spoke, he wiped the corner of his mouth heavily.
Ning Xi: “…”
No, what does this mean?
Do you dislike her?
The heart that had been beating wildly just now instantly calmed down. Ning Xi turned her head away and said, "Oh, no."
Qin Yan pursed his lips and thought to himself, I can’t do that either.
"Let's forget about Lawyer Yan's matter this time, but don't do it again." He looked at her deeply and said as if in a warning.
Ning Xi curled her lips and said, "Well, no."
Qin Yan withdrew his gaze and turned back to his room.
Ning Xi also went to the study.
The atmosphere between the two of them seemed to have returned to the time when they first met.
Shuo Shuo, look at this, then look at that.
“…”
Adults are really weird.
The next day.
Qin Yan went to Qin Yun's place in the morning. Ning Xi didn't know where he went, nor was she in the mood to know.
