Xiao Ning's voice echoed in the air, his words were sincere and frank. His expression was serious and firm, which made people respect his decision.
Nalan Ruxuan listened quietly, with a trace of helplessness and disappointment on her face. She looked at Xiao Ning and Yourong Rouxue silently, knowing in her heart that this engagement could not be redeemed.
Xiao Ning continued, "Madam Nalan, I know very well that this is unfair to your daughter, but I cannot go against my heart. I hope you can understand my difficulties, and I hope we can solve this problem in a peaceful way."
His words reveal a maturity and responsibility, which makes people feel his sense of responsibility.
The whole venue seemed to be shrouded in an invisible haze. The tense atmosphere was like the oppressive calm before a storm, making people feel suffocated.
At this moment, Nalan Ruxuan opened her red lips and prepared to speak, but a cold voice as if coming from the ice and snow suddenly came from behind her.
"Mother, please stop making things difficult for Master Xiao. You should know clearly that there is no one in this world who would be willing to marry a disabled person like me."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a petite woman sitting quietly in a wheelchair. This woman was Huang Yuhe. Although she was disabled, her delicate face still couldn't hide her natural beauty. At this moment, she lowered her head slightly, making it difficult to see the expression on her face.
After hearing her daughter's words, Nalan Ruxuan felt heartbroken. She hurriedly walked to Huang Yuhe's side, squatted down, and tightly held her daughter's slender and cold hands. Tears welled up in her beautiful eyes and could burst out at any time.
"Yu He, it's all mother's fault. I'm useless. Not only did I fail to cure your illness, I couldn't even give you the most basic respect." Nalan Ruxuan's voice was filled with endless self-blame and guilt.
Huang Yuhe's eyes were wrapped by a snow-white ribbon-like object. When she felt her mother's warm hands, her body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and then she shook her hands back with force.
"It's okay, mother, let's go home." Huang Yuhe said softly. Although her tone was calm, the helplessness and sadness contained in it made people feel distressed.
Xiao Ning, who had been observing silently, saw the pitiful mother and daughter in front of him, and his heart suddenly tightened, as if he had been stabbed by a sharp needle. He could no longer remain silent, and hurriedly strode forward and asked with concern:
"Madam Nalan, I wonder what happened to your daughter? Why did she have such serious problems with her eyes and legs?"
Nalan Ruxuan turned her head to look at Xiao Ning, slightly opened her lips, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Yourong Rouxue's sudden words.
“Yin Yang eyes! This girl actually has Yin Yang eyes!”
There was a hint of surprise and curiosity in Rong Rouxue's voice, as if she had discovered some rare treasure.
Everyone looked at Yourong Rouxue with puzzled expressions on their faces. They knew nothing about this unfamiliar word. Xiao Ning also turned around and stared at Yourong Rouxue, with a gleam of curiosity in his eyes, and asked softly:
"What exactly are the Yin-Yang eyes?"
Rong Rouxue's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, she explained slowly:
"This world is full of wonders. In addition to special physiques, there are also some rare organs and tissues. Just like the Yin-Yang eyes of this girl, it is a rare treasure that is rarely seen in a century. People with Yin-Yang eyes can see the world that ordinary people cannot reach, such as ghosts or souls. Moreover, this kind of eyes also has the power to bewitch people and can make people fall into endless illusions."
Xiao Ning listened to You Rong Rouxue's explanation and was secretly amazed. He couldn't help but think of some legends he had read in a novel in his previous life, which mentioned double pupils and supreme bones. He subconsciously blurted out:
"Double pupils? Supreme bone?"
Rong Rouxue's eyes suddenly brightened, and she seemed to have a strong interest in Xiao Ning's words. She approached Xiao Ning and whispered:
"Hey! Ning'er, how do you know these things? There are indeed people with double pupils, and their eyes have special abilities. As for the Supreme Bone, I have one in my body!"
As she spoke, You Rong Rouxue was about to show it to Xiao Ning, and her movements seemed a little anxious. Seeing this, Xiao Ning quickly reached out and grabbed You Rong Rouxue's hand to stop her from going on. A blush appeared on his face, and he was filled with embarrassment.
"I just said it casually, I didn't expect it to be true..."
There was a hint of embarrassment in Xiao Ning's voice. He looked at Yourong Rouxue, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.
Rong Rouxue seemed to realize her own gaffe. She smiled and said, "It's okay, Ning'er. These are rare treasures in the world, and not many people know about them. But since you are interested in them, I can tell you more about them."
Her voice was gentle and kind, as if she was telling a mysterious and ancient story. Xiao Ning listened quietly, and then said gently.
"Well, sister, let's talk about it later when we have time. But speaking of which, can Miss Huang's Yin-Yang eyes be cured?" Xiao Ning asked with a puzzled look on his face.
You Rong Rouxue smiled and explained, "Why do we need treatment? Yin-Yang eyes are rare treasures that only appear once in a century! As for why she is wrapped in gauze, the reason is very simple. People with Yin-Yang eyes cannot be exposed to the sun directly, so most of the time, they need to use objects to cover their eyes. This girl is not blind."
Hearing this, Xiao Ning nodded in sudden realization, indicating that he understood. Then, he turned his gaze to Nalan Ruxuan and continued to ask curiously:
