Chapter 138 Falling into the Water



The day Ning Hong was taken to Xiao Yuchi Manor, she felt a little dizzy and a little unreal.

She couldn't help but ask, "Brother, is it okay for us to live in Brother Xiao Yuchi's house like this?"

Song Rui knew that his sister was a little uneasy, so he patted her on the back to comfort her.

"My family and the Xiao family are family relatives. Let alone living in the manor, if you hadn't been lost as a child, you would have been engaged to Xiao Yuchi by now..."

Song Rui realized that he had said too much and quickly shut up.

Ning Hong lowered her head, feeling a little shy.

What can Ning Zhihuan use to fight her this time?

Behind her is not just one person, but the entire family.

But then he heard Song Rui say, "But now that Brother Xiao has someone he likes, I will find you someone who will treat you better."

Find another one? How can I do that?!

Ning Hong's eyes turned red with anger, but she couldn't vent her anger at this moment.

Having just become relatives, she needs to act more knowledgeable and polite in front of Song Rui.

Song Rui just thought she hadn't adapted yet, so he didn't say much.

It was only after Xiao Yuchi came back that he found out that Ning Hong was Song Rui's sister and the lost jewel of the Song family.

He didn't show much emotion, just greeted her indifferently.

There was nothing else besides this, as cold as when we first met.

They had clearly known each other for a long time, they had been engaged as children, and she was clearly the woman who should stand by his side.

Song Rui didn't know what his sister was thinking. He thought of borrowing Xiao Yuchi's place to hold a simple family dinner and invite Ning Zhihuan's family as a reward for their care for Ning Hong over the years.

Xiao Yuchi naturally had no objection.

Ning Hong wanted to let the Ning family see her current status, so naturally they had no objection.

This matter was put on the agenda.

It was only the third day after Ning Hong was brought back that An Mao drove over to pick them up personally.

Because the Ning family is large, they had to run back and forth several times.

Ning Zhihuan thanked him with a smile, but An Mao waved his hand and said that these were nothing.

Ning Zhihuan now likes this little old man more and more.

By the time we arrived at the manor, the dishes had almost been served.

It's on the small garden on the first floor.

Except for Ning Zhihuan, the rest of the Ning family members were here for the first time and were inevitably surprised.

Is this where Xiao Yuchi lives?

This must be heaven!

The path leading to the garden was very long. At the end, Song Rui and Xiao Yuchi stood together, both looking extremely formal in their suits.

Ning Hong stood on the right side of Xiao Yuchi, wearing a pink long evening gown custom-made in Italy, which made her and Xiao Yuchi look like a perfect match.

At least that's what she thought.

She secretly glanced at Xiao Yuchi, fell in love with the boy's perfect profile, and was also extremely surprised that she could stand beside him.

But the next second, Xiao Yuchi walked towards Ning Zhihuan.

He led her to the dining table, carefully pulled out a stool for her, and then sat down next to her naturally.

Ning Hong wanted to sit next to him, but Song Rui pulled her to sit opposite him.

There seemed to be a galaxy between the two people.

Although Xiao Yuchi lives in such a big house, he will definitely not be short of gifts.

But after all, you are visiting someone else's home.

The rule is that you have to bring something with you; you can’t come empty-handed.

So Ning Zhikun gave the fruit in his hand to the servant next to him.

Xiao Yuchi didn't say anything, and Song Rui didn't say anything either.

Ning Hong spoke.

"These fruits don't look very fresh, and they're all in the manor. Don't be so polite next time you come."

At first glance, there's nothing wrong with this sentence.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that Ning Hong is acting like a hostess, and she is complaining about the shabby gifts they brought.

This was not said politely, and everyone present could hear it.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Song Rui came out and laughed, "Yeah, yeah, we're already so close, and you still bring gifts? How awkward."

After all, he had worked his way up in an aristocratic family, so he was able to go from being poor to being polite in just a few words.

The Ning family members had different expressions, but they didn't say anything out of respect.

Ning Zhikun laughed awkwardly, and anyone could hear the dissatisfaction in his laughter.

Ning Zhihuan seemed even bolder.

She propped up her chin, stared at Ning Hong, and said with interest, "People who come from the mountains can't compare to those in the city. But then again, Sister Ning Hong, didn't you also come from the mountains? Why are you starting to despise the poor and love the rich?"

The label of "snobbish on the poor and rich in love" is quite a high praise, Ning Hong hurriedly explained.

But everything I say seems a little pale.

It would be inappropriate for Song Rui to help rob at this time, so the Ning family naturally ignored her, let alone Xiao Yuchi.

If it weren't for Song Rui and Old Master Song, he would have had her thrown out long ago.

She smells good and always likes to rub against him.

Ning Hong became a little anxious when she saw that no one was speaking up for her.

"Ning Zhihuan, are you jealous or envious?"

This time, the relationship has been torn apart, and Ning Zhihuan is no less serious.

"Why am I jealous of you? Because you're a fake princess?"

Ning Zhihuan's words completely ignited her anger. Ning Hong was about to hit her, but was pushed away by Ning Zhihuan.

Because he didn't stand firmly, he took several steps back and fell into the pool.

It's not summer yet, so the water is cool, although not frozen.

Ning Hong was shivering from the cold.

It all happened so quickly that before anyone could react, Song Rui jumped into the pool and picked up the still trembling Ning Hong.

He covered Ning Hong with his suit and ran into the manor with him in his arms.

He ran while calling for his family doctor.

When he passed by Ning Zhihuan, his voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and it happened to reach the ears of everyone present.

"If anything happens to Ning Hong, I won't let you go."

He is easygoing, and this is just on the surface.

How many people in the chaebol don’t have their own temper?

He just never turns his edge against his own people.

But this time, Ning Zhihuan really went too far.

The Ning family was not happy with this.

He was about to take Ning Zhihuan away.

Ning Zhihuan asked An Mao to send them back first, and he stayed to deal with things.

Originally, no one in the Ning family was willing to leave, fearing that Ning Zhihuan would be bullied if he stayed.

In the end, it was Old Lady Ning who called everyone back. She believed that Ning Zhihuan could handle it.

After arranging everything for the Ning family, Ning Zhihuan asked Xiao Yuchi to take her to see Song Rui. She had something to say to him.

Xiao Yuchi frowned. This was not the best time for the two of them to meet.

Song Rui seems to be a cheerful and easy-going person on the surface, but in fact, he will turn hostile and ruthless if you touch his sensitive spot.
