Ning Yuan paused, looking at Qin Hongxing with a cold expression: "What do you want to say?"
Qin Hongxing watched as Ning Yuan stopped, as if she had regained her self-respect, and smiled contemptuously at her: "Didn't you hear what I wanted to say?"
As she spoke, she looked at Aheng not far away and said provocatively, "Do you think Brother Rong dotes on you and lets Aheng stay by your side? Hey, go ask Aheng if he knows Sister Ye Qiu?"
Ning Yuan instinctively looked at Aheng.
But on Aheng's face, I saw an indescribable look of panic.
Ah Heng was suddenly called out, and he was stunned and flustered: "Ah...what!"
Ning Yuan withdrew her gaze and looked coldly at Qin Hongxing: "You mean that Ye something? I don't know her. Are you jealous that I look like her and that's why I got Rong Zhaonan's favor?"
Qin Hongxing never expected that Ning Yuan would not answer her, but instead mock and question her.
She gritted her teeth: "Don't you have any self-respect? You're just someone else's substitute, yet you're here gloating and smug."
Ning Yuan looked her up and down in bewilderment: "A shameless woman like you, who is clinging to a man who doesn't want you, despises you, and looks down on you, even going so far as to block his wife and gossip about you, is teaching me what self-respect is?"
"I don't want you," "I despise you," "I look down on you"... These three parallel short sentences are like three sharp arrows, piercing Qin Hongxing's heart one after another.
Qin Hongxing's face instantly turned ashen: "You...you...you country bumpkin dare to humiliate me!"
Ning Yuan closed her eyes and sighed deeply: "I really don't understand. Even if your family has fallen on hard times, you are still a member of a prominent family. Why do you not strive for improvement and instead pin all your hopes on snatching a man with good conditions?"
She frowned and slapped Qin Hongxing's shoulder irritably: "Can't you be a little more dignified? Don't embarrass us women! You're a privileged woman in Beijing, surrounded by so many privileged young men, why would you need a married man like this?"
Qin Hongxing was suddenly given a serious lecture and was momentarily stunned, not knowing how to refute it.
Moreover, Ning Yuan's tone sounded just like that of an elder who had seen it all, with a look of disappointment and frustration. She suddenly thought of her own mother!
And it even made me feel ashamed...
Ning Yuan scolded Qin Hongxing until he was like a dazed statue, then immediately turned and left without looking back.
Ah Heng realized what was happening and quickly chased after them.
By the time Qin Hongxing realized what was happening, Ning Yuan had already quickly walked away, making her so angry that she jumped up and down, cursing—
"Ning Yuan, what right do you have to lecture me? What do you know? You know nothing!"
Ning Yuan walked with her head down, expressionless, ignoring her shouts and curses.
Looking at her, Ah Heng suddenly felt uneasy!
Xiao Ning looks cute and sweet, but she's actually a fiery hot pepper! If you dare to bite her, it'll be so spicy it'll kill you!
Ah Heng quickly rushed over and said, "Xiao Ning, let me tell you, it's not like that..."
She caught up with Ning Yuan and racked her brains to explain, "The captain and Sister Ye Qiu have a very good relationship. Sister Ye Qiu is a very good older sister. Everyone in their compound likes her. She belongs to everyone..."
"Goddess." Ning Yuan suddenly blurted out.
Ah Heng's eyes suddenly lit up. "Wow, there really isn't a better adjective than this!"
She nodded vigorously, "Yes, she's a goddess, everyone's goddess. She's so beautiful, even more beautiful than you..."
Ah Heng realized he had let something slip and quickly said, "No, it's you...you don't look like it, you don't look like it at all."
Ning Yuan sighed softly, then suddenly stopped in her tracks: "Aheng, you're really not good at lying."
Looking into the cool eyes of the girl in front of her in the sunset, Aheng felt a strange chill run down her spine, as if she were facing her captain brother.
But... if I tell the truth, will the captain kill me? I have absolutely no idea!
Ah Heng gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, it just does look a bit like it..."
Ning Yuan looked at her: "Oh?"
Ah Heng gritted his teeth: "At most, you look about five or six points alike. You all have big eyes and are all pretty and delicate, but you're definitely not as far off as Qin Hongxing described!"
Ah Heng paused, then said seriously, "My brother would never be with you just because you look like Sister Ye Qiu. Don't you know why you two got together in the first place?"
Ning Yuan nodded: "Yes, I know. So, tell me first who Ye Qiu is and what the situation is."
Aheng scratched his head and said, "When my brother found me, he had already been in the army for two years and made many contributions, so I didn't stay in the compound for many years before joining the army with him. I only met Sister Ye Qiu twice."
Every time, it's amazing.
Ah Heng tried hard to recall—
"Sister Ye Qiu is a doctor at the military hospital. She is the eldest daughter of the Ye family, the most beloved one. She has a good character and is respected by all the boys and girls in the compound."
"I heard that when my brother was sent home, he was very well-behaved. People said he was a bourgeois British gentleman. The other boys in the compound didn't play with him and even bullied him."
Ah Heng scratched his head again: "Although I can't imagine what it would be like if my captain brother was well-behaved."
