Ning Lang glanced at Yuan Heng with amusement, then turned to look at Lin Hui'er.
"Miss Lin, I need to prepare dinner in a little while. May I ask what brings you here?"
Lin Huier lowered her eyes and looked away, saying in a low voice, "Um... Miss Ning, can we talk alone? This is Ah Xuan's private matter, and it's not appropriate for too many people to know about it."
Yuan Heng rolled his eyes and kissed the chubby parrot on his arm.
"Ah-Lu, the air here smells terrible. Let me take you for a walk."
Green flapped its wings excitedly, "Alright! Alright!"
Then, the man and the bird swaggered away.
Lin Huier looked somewhat embarrassed, secretly seething with anger.
Yuan Heng never plays by the rules. He's rich and handsome. He's the most famous rich young master in Y City, yet he's chosen to settle in Rong City and spends all his time fawning over Ning Lang.
I really don't know what's so great about Ning Lang!
Despite her tall stature and average looks, she managed to make two wealthy young men, Yuan Heng and Jiang Lirong, fall head over heels for her!
She forced a fake smile. "Miss Ning, although you've been divorced, it's truly enviable that you have such a handsome man like Yuan Heng pursuing you."
Ning Lang smiled slightly and said, "Speak your mind."
Lin Huier felt secretly embarrassed. She felt that although this woman looked calm and composed, she was just as embarrassing as the sharp-tongued Yuan Heng from earlier.
"It's like this... Ah-Xuan has lost everything and is seriously injured in the hospital, his life hanging in the balance. The hospital costs money, and the old house still needs a lot of expenses. I hope you can think of him and return what belongs to Ah-Xuan to him."
Ning Lang raised an eyebrow and asked, "What do you mean? I don't owe him anything!" See, the fox's tail is showing.
Lin Huier bit her lower lip, tears streaming down her face.
“Miss Ning, you and A-Xuan are already divorced. Although there is no longer any affection between you as husband and wife, you have known each other for so many years. You can’t just stand by and watch him die… He’s having such a hard time right now.”
Ning Lang shrugged and said, "He was injured and unconscious, so I helped take him to the hospital. I didn't leave him to die, so please watch your words and don't say anything careless."
Don't try to pin the blame on her with just a few words; she won't stand for it.
Lin Huier wiped away her tears and whispered, "But he's heavily in debt right now, and the hospital is burning through cash every day. It's really too difficult for him. The old house is registered under both of your names, so it's impossible for him to sell it separately."
Ning Lang nodded, "It is indeed under our joint name."
The old house was a gift from Grandpa Sheng to her. Since they were still married at the time, both of their names were on the property certificate when the property was transferred.
They later divorced hastily, and the two did not divide any property; the old house remained in their names.
Lin Huier sobbed softly, "Besides, the wedding ring he gave you before... you've kept it all this time. Ah Xuan is a proud person, and he's too embarrassed to ask you for it back. But he's in such a difficult situation now, please have some compassion and be more understanding of him."
Ning Lang smiled slightly and said readily, "It's all a small matter. Once he's better, you can have him come to me directly for it."
Look at what she's saying. If she doesn't sell the old house and return the ring, then she's ruthless and shows no mercy to Sheng Xuan.
The items can be returned, but it's not her place to ask for them back.
The relationship between Ning Lang and Sheng Xuan is none of anyone else's business.
