Chapter 9 Do you want to become a knight and save me?
Ning's mother was sitting under the dim light, mending her torn apron. As she got older, her eyesight was getting worse.
Fortunately, the employer's family was kind-hearted and did not mention dismissal.
The door opened and Ning Anran walked in.
"Mom, it's so late, aren't you going to rest yet?"
The cold greeting was like a subconscious reaction of the body. Ning Anran had no idea how long he had been in this half-dead state.
"Why did you come back so late today?"
"I'm waiting for you, and I even saved some food for you."
Ning's mother also became angry.
She knew that Ning Anran would not come back so late on normal days. Since he was delayed for so long today, he must have been fooling around outside.
"You haven't found a job, and all you do is play all day long. Your father still has a lot of debts outside. Can't you let me worry less?"
Ning Anran just lowered her eyes and listened quietly despite the barrage of accusations.
"Mom, Miss Gu asked me to accompany her to dinner. Are you satisfied with what I said?"
The word "Second Miss Gu" made Ning's mother speechless. The rich lady next door was not someone they could afford to offend.
"So...did she hit you?"
Ning's mother knew that Miss Gu was not satisfied with Ning Anran because the boy kept outside by the Cheng family was interested in Ning Anran, so Miss Gu was jealous and made trouble for Ning Anran every day.
"No."
"Mom, just eat this meal as a midnight snack."
"I've eaten out."
Ning Anran glanced at the lunch box that had long gone cold, and without any appetite, she turned around and went into the small bathroom.
Looking at her daughter's back, Ning's mother said nothing more.
Over the years, she felt a little guilty that she had allowed her own flesh and blood to rise to prominence as a phoenix, while she had hidden someone else's real daughter away.
The phoenix fell into misfortune and lived a hard life.
As Ning Anran grew up day by day and became more handsome, she became more and more uneasy.
She originally thought that the beautiful woman back then was just the rich wife of a coal boss, and both of them were Mrs. Ning, so she had evil intentions.
But she didn't expect that when she saw the woman's face on the screen again many years later, she knew the woman's true identity!
The young lady of Yuanye Group!
…
After blow-drying her hair, Gu Xia finally felt like she belonged completely to herself.
Finally I can rest on her two-meter bed!
However, the next second, Gu Xia was stunned.
In the dim light, Gu Xia saw a person sitting on his two-meter-long bed. The person had a slender figure and long hair draped over his shoulders.
Ning... Ning Anran!
"Woc! System, can you explain to me? Why is the heroine here now?!"
Gu Xia really wanted to cover her chest. She always felt that Ning Anran at this moment was like Jing Ke who assassinated the King of Qin, and she was the King of Qin who was assassinated by Jing Ke.
"This... Host, is this related to your previous behavior?"
It would have been fine if the system hadn't said anything, but once it did, the memories that Gu Xia had long forgotten came flooding back.
At that time, she always liked to ask Ning Anran to take off all her clothes and warm her bed before she went to bed!
Gu Xia was silent.
Well, it’s just the fault of my past mistakes!
"Did you finish washing?"
Ning Anran just looked up and started to unbutton her clothes.
"There's some fruit washed by Aunt Li on the table. I just brought it in."
A piece of snow-white skin came into view. Gu Xia was so scared that she quickly covered her eyes, her voice a little timid.
"Ning Anran, don't be like this, I'm a little scared."
God knows, she is really scared! !
Hearing Miss Gu Er's uncharacteristic remarks, Ning Anran stopped unbuttoning her clothes. She raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Gu Xia suspiciously.
Has Gu Xia been cursed by someone these days?
"Okay, so what do you want me to do?"
"Gu Xia."
"Do you want me to get the wine?"
Ning Anran didn't even fasten the loose buttons. She got up from the bed and went to get the red wine.
"Wait, Ning Anran."
"You sleep in the master bedroom, and I'll sleep in the second bedroom."
Hearing her cold tone, Gu Xia hurried forward and grabbed Ning Anran's arm.
Goodbye, for the sake of your master's life and safety, please serve the mistress well tonight on the two-meter bed!
Gu Xia burst into tears in her heart. This luxurious big bed was specially designed to cure her insomnia. If the other party was not the heroine, she would never give up this precious big bed.
Goodbye, dear bed!
"Is this also the task you assigned to me?"
Ning Anran stood there, her delicate collarbone exposed. Gu Xia glanced at it inadvertently and saw the faint bruise on it.
The forward steps stopped.
She remembered that before she awakened, she had only slapped the heroine, but had never kicked her.
So, could such a large bruise be caused by the heroine's drunk father beating her?
It really is an evil Mary Sue novel!
"Mission...what mission?"
Seeing Gu Xia questioning him in return, Ning Anran finally couldn't help but sneer.
"Of course it's the task you gave me."
"What tricks are you going to play this time?"
"Gu Xia."
Ning Anran raised her hand obediently and held it in front of Gu Xia. She was like a puppet deprived of her life, which made Gu Xia feel heartbroken.
That bruise was obviously not left today.
"Ning Anran, please sit on the sofa."
Gu Xia thought that if she didn't apply medicine to the bruise in time, it would probably continue to hurt.
Hearing Gu Xia's familiar instructions, Ning Anran sat down on the sofa without any hesitation. She did not put back the buttons she had unbuttoned.
Instead, he waited for the torture and punishment he was about to face.
According to the location she remembered, Gu Xia found the medicine box in the drawer of the coffee table. This was the medicine box prepared for her by Gu Lindong because he was worried that she might have bumps and bruises and was stubborn and didn't want to go to the hospital.
There is everything you need inside.
Opening the medicine box, Gu Xia took out the blood stasis removal potion. The strong smell instantly filled the bedroom.
Ning Anran raised her head and saw Gu Xia squatting beside the coffee table, holding a brown medicine bottle in her hand and dripping a few drops of medicine into her palm.
"Shall I help you apply the medicine?"
"Did you bump into it accidentally?"
Nonsense, of course it’s not knocked against.
Anyone with eyesight could tell that the bruises were caused by being kicked, but Gu Xia knew that he shouldn't rashly ask about the heroine's family background.
So as not to irritate the heroine.
She could only turn a blind eye, pretending she knew nothing about it, and act as a good person passing by to heal the heroine.
"Are you sympathizing with me?"
Ning Anran had been submissive for so long that she had forgotten that she had a temper.
"Gu Xia, you applied medicine to me because you wanted to see how pitiful I am now?"
"Do you want to turn into a knight and save me?"
"And then laugh at me?"
Either explode in silence or die in silence. Ning Anran did not scream or shout. She was left with only fatigue.
"Ning Anran."
"I just feel that if you don't take good care of yourself, how can you serve me?"
