"Mr. Xiao, you are here!"
Nalan Ruxuan shouted happily, her voice full of excitement that could not be concealed. Xiao Ning came in front of the two of them, bowed slightly and said, "Mrs. Nalan, Miss Huang."
Nalan Ruxuan hurriedly helped Xiao Ning up, her eyes full of gratitude, and hurriedly said: "Oh, Mr. Xiao, you are so polite! We, mother and daughter, don't know how to thank you!" Her tone was sincere and earnest, as if Xiao Ning was the savior of her life.
Xiao Ning waved his hand gently and said with a smile: "No need, Madam Nalan, I am also very happy to have cured Miss Huang. There is really no need to be so polite." His voice was gentle but firm, trying to let Nalan Ruxuan let go of the burden in her heart.
Xiao Ning persuaded Nalan Ruxuan for a long time, and finally calmed her down. Then, he turned his gaze to Huang Yuhe who was standing beside him.
Huang Yuhe felt Xiao Ning's gaze, and her heart tightened. She walked forward nervously. However, because her legs had not fully recovered, her steps seemed a little staggering, and her body fell forward involuntarily.
Xiao Ning was quick to support her delicate body. When his hand touched Huang Yuhe's skin, a strange feeling came over him. Huang Yuhe's face instantly flushed, like a ripe apple, and she said shyly:
"Mr. Xiao, thank you. Yu He doesn't know how to repay your kindness. Yu He is willing to stay by your side forever. Even if I can't be your wife, I can be your concubine! Just to repay your kindness!"
When Xiao Ning heard this, he felt a surge of pressure in his heart. He secretly complained, well, he had just broken off the engagement with Huang Yuhe a few days ago, why is she here again? He already had enough women around him, if there was one more, the Shura Field would come, even if he had ten lives it wouldn't be enough!
"Ms. Huang, don't be like this. You should have had a better choice. To be honest, there are too many women around me..." There was a hint of helplessness and apology in Xiao Ning's tone.
Huang Yuhe's eyes flashed with determination, and she interrupted Xiao Ning without hesitation:
"I don't care! Master Xiao, you saved me, and we were engaged before. I know you look down on me, Master Xiao, but I only want to serve you, even if I'm just a humble maid!"
Her voice was full of persistence and desire, which moved people.
Xiao Ning looked at Huang Yuhe's sincere expression and felt touched. However, he also knew clearly that he could not give her more promises. He sighed softly and said:
"Ms. Huang, I understand your feelings, but I really cannot accept it. I hope you can find your own happiness instead of pinning your hopes on me."
Huang Yuhe's eyes gradually dimmed, and her tears soaked the gauze covering her eyes. She knew that she could not change Xiao Ning's decision and could only accept this reality silently.
Nalan Ruxuan watched the interaction between the two, feeling helpless. She understood her daughter's thoughts, but also knew Xiao Ning's difficulties. So, she said tactfully, "Mr. Xiao, you can chat with Yu He, and I'll make tea for you." As she said that, she turned and walked into the house and started to boil water and make tea.
Only Xiao Ning and Huang Yuhe were left in the yard, and the atmosphere became a little awkward. Xiao Ning tried to find some topics to break the silence, and he asked gently:
"Miss Huang, let me take you to sit over there."
Huang Yuhe listened to Xiao Ning's voice for a while before he said softly, "Well, I'll trouble you, Master Xiao."
Xiao Ning gently helped Huang Yuhe to sit down at the stone table nearby. His movements were gentle and cautious, as if he was afraid of hurting her. Then, he gently took out a secret book and a storage bag from his storage ring and handed them to Huang Yuhe.
"Miss Huang, this is the secret of this method. If you practice it with your Yin-Yang Eyes, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort. I hope you can have some means of self-protection. There is also 10,000 taels of gold in this storage bag."
Huang Yuhe listened to Xiao Ning's words and immediately waved her hand to refuse, "Mr. Xiao, no! You have already cured my legs, how can I ask for your things again! No way!"
Xiao Ning's eyes were firm and persistent. He held Huang Yuhe's hand tightly and said:
"Ms. Huang, please accept it! I know why you signed the marriage contract with me. Your family business is in danger and the capital chain is broken. If you don't have money to fill the gap, you will be swallowed up. I hope this 10,000 taels of gold can help you tide over the difficulties.
"And I hope you can practice this Heart Sutra well. Your legs were poisoned secretly. Although I don't know who is behind it, I think it should be related to your competitors, so we must be on guard."
Huang Yuhe felt a pang of pain in her heart. She didn't expect Xiao Ning to understand her family's plight so well. She looked at Xiao Ning gratefully, with a look of grievance on her face.
It turns out that Nalan Ruxuan agreed to marry her daughter to Xiao Ning not because of the compensation Xiao Ding wanted for breaking off the engagement. No parent would let their daughter marry the son of an unfaithful man. All this was because the Huang family's industry had serious problems, and they had no choice but to make such a decision.
Finally, under Xiao Ning's persuasion, Huang Yuhe took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She knew that now was not the time to be sentimental, as the fate of the family was more important than anything else. She slowly reached out her hand, took the secret book and storage bag, and said:
"Mr. Xiao, thank you for your kindness. I will work hard to practice and live up to your expectations."
