Chapter 102 Take Me Away, Xia Xia
The Ning family's old house was brightly lit.
Ning Anran dialed the number accurately, which she could recall as soon as she closed her eyes.
She used to wait for Gu Xia's call, but now
First time seeing you
"Tongtong, you're starting to flatter me again, but I actually like hearing that."
"Are you trying to cheer me up?"
How could Ning Anran not understand what Gu Xia meant? This seemed to be the first time someone had coaxed her gently.
"Speak of the devil, and he'll appear. Hehe~ Host, the heroine's favorability has increased by another 1%. Please keep up the good work tonight."
It's like the following plot requires turning on the lights! It's all true, my head is full of these things!
"Yes, Ning Anran, I want you to be happier."
"Your future life will not only be filled with these troubles, you still have your job, and you still have me."
"It's just a lawsuit. If you're willing, I'll hire a lawyer and make them pissed."
Sitting on the soft bed, Gu Xia glanced at her WeChat group. The people under her were quite efficient and had already found the best lawyers in Qingshui City.
Good job!
"What's wrong, Xia Xia... Are you hiring so many lawyers to fight with your sister for the family property?"
Gu Xia didn't expect that Yu Yingying was also in the group he had formed.
She was really careless!
In order to prevent Yu Yingying, the big leak, from continuing to talk, Gu Xia switched to private chat mode.
"What are you talking about? My sister and I have a bond as strong as gold. This kind of thing is impossible."
[Then you find...hiss...these are all lawyers who deal with family discord and parent-child severance. You're not going to get your legs broken if your uncles and aunts find out you've been liking women lately and plotting against Ning Anran!]
[Yu Yingying, what on earth are you thinking about all day long? ]
[However... my parents did find out that Ning Anran and I were close. Not my parents, but Ning Anran's parents.]
"Then I understand, Xia Xia, you're looking for these people to help Ning Anran hire a lawyer, right?"
[Well, her parents are not worthy of someone as good as Ning Anran]
After typing this line, Gu Xia looked up and saw Ning Anran slowly cleaning out the things in the box, including some worn-out clothes, blue jeans, and a few pairs of shoes.
Apart from that, there is nothing left.
Ning Anran's clothes, which had been washed so lightly, were so out of place in the exquisitely decorated room.
"Ning Anran, let me do it."
Throwing her cell phone on the bed, Gu Xia completely put Yu Yingying behind her. She looked at Ning Anran's arm with worry and moved closer to Ning Anran.
"I can still handle this little thing."
"No need to trouble you."
If this continues, Ning Anran herself won't be able to tell who is taking care of whom.
Seeing that she was trying to be strong even though one of her hands was injured, Gu Xia simply took away half of her clothes and carried them to the closet.
She muttered angrily, "No, I have to help you. You're the patient!"
Is this your first time bringing friends to our university? "
Faced with the two professors' taking turns looking at him, Gu Xia always felt like some kind of small animal placed in a display window.
"Thank you, Professor, but...she can't handle spicy food."
This is the truth.
It’s not that Gu Xia can’t eat spicy food. On the contrary, she likes it very much. It’s just that Gu Xia never takes the initiative to eat spicy food.
Because she has a weak stomach and always vomits after eating, Ning Anran will never cook spicy dishes for Gu Xia after buying groceries.
Otherwise, when the time comes in the middle of the night, Gu Xia will get anxious and start throwing tantrums and kicking herself a few times.
But, it doesn’t hurt when she kicks people.
When she moaned in pain, Ning Anran would still feel a little bit of enjoyment. At that time, Ning Anran just felt that she had been bullied by Gu Xia for too long.
So when he saw Gu Xia in pain, he started to become distorted.
He liked it when she frowned and acted bossy towards him, but he couldn't say anything harsh because of the stomach cramps.
The tone doesn't sound like a joke between friends, but more like the intimacy between lovers.
The two professors looked at each other and began to fall into deep suspicion.
At their age, they have even seen ghosts, so they can naturally smell something unusual.
"What? I can eat it!"
"Professor, do you have classes later? Otherwise, let's go eat together."
Gu Xia felt that it was necessary to take care of interpersonal relationships. Inviting the two teachers to dinner was the most convenient way to improve their favorability.
This way, Ning Anran won’t have to worry about failing the exam anymore.
However, a top student like Ning Anran does not have such concerns.
"What to eat, can you take me one, kid?"
A gentle female voice came.
Gu Xia and Ning Anran turned around at the same time.
The principal followed behind Wen Wanbai and patted his cheek, somewhat unable to believe that President Wen would come forward to chat with him.
But when they saw Ning Anran's face, they were stunned.
This... this person looks exactly like President Wen!
"Who are you?"
The professor is someone Gu Xia knows, and she wants to have dinner with them, so Ning Anran can accompany them.
But when it comes to a strange woman he doesn't know, Ning Anran is extremely alert.
She stared at the woman in front of her with a fierce look, not happy with her forcing herself into the dinner party.
For the first time, Ning Anran felt anticipation.
She was not used to being surrounded by so many people, nor was she used to facing her unfamiliar biological parents. There were so many things she was not used to.
Ning Anran felt that she needed enough time to prepare herself mentally. This family was too warm, and she felt that she could never fit in.
"Beep, beep—beep."
I was listening intently, but the balcony door and floor-to-ceiling windows were pushed open.
"Hello, Miss Ning."
Ning Jin held her coat in one hand. From the moment she entered the door, she had been facing countless strange looks from the Ning family.
But Ning Jin finally got through it after a long period of psychological preparation. She was much more familiar with the Ning family's old house than Ning Anran.
"If my guess is correct, is Miss Ning calling Miss Gu?"
"The second daughter of the Gu Group, the woman who sponsored you to go to college?"
The tone was not hysterical, nor was it aggressive. If someone had spoken to him like this in the past, Ning Anran would not have been angry.
However, the woman in front of him only mentioned Gu Xia's identity.
"What does it have to do with you?"
"I don't know you. I don't think it's my turn to interfere with who I'm talking to on the phone."
Her sharp brows were filled with the meaning of protecting her master.
Ning Jin knew the unclear relationship between Ning Anran and Gu Xia. She took a step forward, and the strong smell of perfume on her body made Ning Anran feel uncomfortable.
"Ning Anran, do you like the second daughter of the Gu family?"
With a frivolous smile, Ning Jin hooked her long hair with her fingers, her eyes as charming as silk.
"Since you took everything from me, how about I take everything from you?"
Growing up in the circle of rich second-generations, how could Ning Jin not understand what Ning Anran cares about most? Rather than saying that he likes Gu Xia, Ning Jin feels that it is more like Ning Anran cannot live without Gu Xia.
"Ning Anran, you don't think your existence will be irreplaceable, do you?"
"Do you know why the young girl from the Gu family likes you? Because you are poor and humble enough, and you don't take yourself seriously."
"She keeps you like a dog, using you as a resting place for your feet when you're tired, and locking you up at home when you're not tired, not allowing you to go anywhere."
Looking at Ning Anran's gradually calming expression, Ning Jin knew that he had touched her heart. People like her are more introverted and calmer the more they are.
In fact, the more turbulent the waves are.
The more earth-shaking it is.
"Didn't she like the illegitimate son of the Cheng family before?"
"Look, she can throw away this hobby so easily. Ning Anran, how much status do you think you hold in her heart? You're not even as good as..."
Ning Anran grabbed Ning Jin's collar with trembling hands, gasping for breath, her eyes red.
“That’s enough!”
"She's not that kind of person!"
The Ning family members who followed were stunned when they saw Ning Anran losing control.
Quiet, polite, and reserved.
This was their first impression of Ning Anran, the lost child. She was like a drop of snow falling in the silence of the night.
There will be no quarrels or hysterics at all.
"She's not that kind of person..."
"You... apologize..."
Ning Anran loosened Ning Jin's collar and squatted down to look for the broken phone screen.
The call that was in progress had been connected, but the broken screen prevented Ning Anran from seeing the minutes of the call.
She didn't know how much Gu Xia had heard, she just regretted making the call rashly.
"An Ran, let go... there are broken glass!"
Scarlet blood dripped onto the phone screen, but Ning Anran held it tighter.
"Xia Xia...can you come pick me up?"
She begged humbly, her messy black hair covering her eyes. Ning Anran looked at the Ning family standing outside the floor-to-ceiling window. She felt that they were strangers, like a flood and a beast.
She no longer trusted her parents, she only wanted to trust Gu Xia.
Only Gu Xia would not lie to her, only Gu Xia was willing to tell her the truth.
Everything in this world is fake, nothing is real.
"Can you come pick me up? I don't want to be here. I... want to go back... Xia Xia..."
Ning Jin was a little surprised when she saw the calm Ning Anran completely collapse in front of her.
——Ning Anran did not deny that she had cursed her as a “dog”. The only thing she denied was her inappropriate words to Gu Xia.
Does she...really "like" it or has she been completely controlled and trained by the young man from the Gu family into obedience?
…
The sound from the other end of the phone made Gu Xia's eardrums hurt.
Gu Xia, who was standing outside the Ning family's old house, heard Ning Anran's cry for help. Without even thinking, he planned to break into the Ning family's old house.
A white Cayenne was parked under the street light. The Ning family's old house was very grand and was an antique passed down from the last century.
It has been under renovation in recent years and is becoming more and more magnificent.
There are more than a dozen security guards and bodyguards on duty.
"System, knock them all down!"
"hurry up!!!"
Gu Xia was out of breath from running, but there was nothing she could do, because her body usually had everything handed to her.
Even trivial matters like getting dressed were handled by Ning Anran. Gu Xia rarely got up early, let alone a morning run.
Huh... Huh... It seems that she needs to go to the gym more often in the future so that she will have the strength to hold Ning Anran.
"The system has received the host's instructions and is applying a mass anesthesia buff to the host. 5 points will be deducted from the host."
"Host's points have been deducted—Paralysis effect complete! Host, please accept!"
This was the first time Gu Xia had bravely broken into a private house. The wind whistled in her ears. Gu Xia calmed herself down and said to Ning Anran, "I'll pick you up... It's okay, Ning Anran, wait... a moment, I'll pick you up."
Her breathing rose and fell with her heartbeat.
It turns out that people can really do things beyond their cognition, just like how she is now squeezing through the densely packed Ning family.
Looking for Ning Anran in the dark moonlight.
…
Even with her palm wrapped in gauze, Ning Anran still refused to let go of the phone that Gu Xia had given her.
The Ning family's personal doctor squatted beside Ning Anran and carefully packed his medicine box.
The wound was bandaged safely.
At this time, Ning Jin had been pulled aside by the old man of the Ning family. He had a stern face and scolded Ning Jin harshly.
"Xiao Jin, haven't you read the verdict your parents gave you? Those things were never yours in the first place. There's no point in holding them."
"safely……"
With a light chuckle, Ning Jin looked up at Old Man Ning, whom he used to be extremely afraid of. Now he felt that this man was not so scary anymore.
"If you really care about her, you'd better check whether she has any mental illness."
"Or do you just want an heir?"
Ning Jin grabbed her bag and was about to walk out. She turned around and took one last look at the person who was truly in charge of Yuanye Group.
"After the situation just now, I don't think you are blind, right?"
Fear, entanglement, struggle.
Ning Jin had made plans the moment he saw his biological parents.
People are complicated.
She hated her biological parents and also hated Ning Anran for taking away everything from her.
Similarly, she also felt sympathy for the misfortune that Ning Anran had suffered.
She is not completely despicable, nor is she completely sincere enough.
