Chapter 37 Returning Home



Old Mrs. Ning hurried out of the house, looking very anxious. Li Xueyan wanted to stop the old lady, but did not dare to use too much force. She could only follow and protect her, fearing that something might happen to her in a hurry.

As she walked, Old Lady Ning kept muttering, "I have to go find my Huanbao. It's getting dark... Huanbao!"

Old Mrs. Ning raised her eyes and saw Ning Zhihuan standing in front of her.

Ning Zhihuan was also a little surprised, but she quickly reacted and stepped forward to hold Old Lady Ning's hand and asked, "Grandma, where are you going?"

Old Lady Ning remained silent, and Li Xueyan, who was standing beside her, began to explain, "Ning Hong came back and said that you went to look for Xiao Yuchi, but the people outside were holding guns on you and wouldn't let you in... Is Xiaochi really that kind of person?"

Old Lady Ning frowned and asked anxiously, "Yes, Huanbao, did Xiaochi really have someone point a gun at you?"

Chen Zhu, who followed out, also looked anxious, as if if she said yes, her whole family would find Xiao Yuchi and fight him to the death.

Ning Zhihuan laughed. This was all Ning Hong was capable of.

She wanted to distance herself from Xiao Yuchi by taking advantage of Old Lady Ning's concern for her and her respect for her.

But this trick is still too immature.

Besides, she didn't think about it. If she stayed away from Xiao Yuchi, how would she get close to him in the future?

Now it seems that I am her best stepping stone.

But because of jealousy and overconfidence, she didn't take herself seriously.

"Grandma, listen to me, there are indeed guns at the door of Xiao Yuchi and his men..." Upon hearing this, Old Lady Ning's pupils dilated, and she couldn't imagine how dangerous it would be.

At this moment, he completely forgot about the first time he met Xiao Yuchi and how he praised him generously.

At that time, I felt that this boy was clean and pure, and his noble aura made it obvious that he was not an ordinary person. In addition to the fact that he was indeed excellent, the main reason was that Xiao Yuchi was Ning Zhihuan's good friend and the first good friend he brought home.

So he really treated Xiao Yuchi as the head of the family.

I just didn't expect him to be so heartless!

Old Mrs. Ning's face was filled with indignation.

While secretly cursing Xiao Yuchi, he felt a surge of fear.

She couldn't imagine what Huanbao must have looked like with more than a dozen guns pointed at his head. How scared and helpless Huanbao must have felt at that moment.

So she didn't even have time to figure out why Ning Hong came back alone, and she rushed out in a hurry.

Chen Zhu was relatively calm and soothed her emotions, explaining that Xiao Yuchi was not that kind of person and that there might be a misunderstanding.

Even though Old Lady Ning was extremely anxious, she couldn't find the Xiao family's location, so she had to give up and walked around the house again and again. Her heart was in turmoil and she couldn't calm down.

As soon as he saw that it was getting dark outside, he rushed out to look for Ning Zhihuan without saying a word, but he didn't expect to run into him by chance.

"But they weren't targeting me. They were targeting Ning Hong, because Xiao Yuchi didn't invite Ning Hong."

Ning Zhihuan explained seriously.

Old Lady Ning was not one to be fooled. She clearly didn't believe it. She asked again, "Really?"

Chen Zhu, who was standing by, couldn't help but agree, "It's okay, Huanbao. If Xiao Yuchi bullied you, just tell us and we will all seek justice for you."

Li Xueyan nodded as well. After all, scholars tend to be more steady and insightful. She said, "Yes, Huanbao, I'm afraid Xiao Chi isn't just any ordinary person. There's someone with a gun at the door. I'm afraid he's a prisoner."

After saying that, she shook her head and denied her own thoughts. "It's unlikely. How could a prisoner be so free... But what is certain is that Xiao Yuchi's identity is not simple. I'm afraid he will implicate you. Huanbao, be good. Let's have less contact with him in the future, okay?"

Even Mrs. Ning, who had previously praised Xiao Yuchi endlessly, had an expression of approval on her face. She probably cursed Xiao Yuchi countless times in her heart.

Ning Zhihuan silently lit a candle for Xiao Yuchi in her heart. He was not innocent either, as he was indeed threatening her.

They threatened her that if she didn't bring her textbook, she wouldn't be allowed to read the rare book.

Ning Zhihuan felt very complicated when he thought about the rare book that he hadn't finished reading yet.

I haven’t finished reading the book yet, and I’ve only taken one day of tutoring. My goal hasn’t been achieved yet, so how can I stop so easily?

So she took Old Lady Ning's arm and called Chen Zhu and Li Xueyan to walk into the house.

"Aunt, Second Aunt, let's go inside and talk. I've been jogging all the way back and I'm so thirsty. I need a glass of water."

Upon hearing this, Li Xueyan immediately turned around and scooped a spoonful of well water for her.

The well water is icy cool and a bit sweet, which really quenches thirst.

After drinking one cup, the burning sensation in my lungs was much better.

So she began to explain, "No, grandma, Xiao Yuchi isn't a criminal, nor is he dangerous. He's just rich... rich people are like that. Think about it, don't those families with a millionaire have bodyguards? Besides, Xiao Yuchi is more than a millionaire. The gun wasn't pointed at me, it was at Ning Hong. She couldn't get in because Xiao Yuchi didn't invite her."

Why do these stories seem like two different stories from what Ning Hong said?

However, in comparison, Old Lady Ning chose to believe Ning Zhihuan without hesitation, and was not so resistant to Xiao Yuchi.

But I still feel that Ning Zhihuan should keep his distance from him.

It is an existence even higher than that of a millionaire, and it is not something that ordinary people like them can access.

There is no need to force yourself to fit in if you are in different circles. Ning Zhihuan also understands this principle. Just because they are not in the same circle now, it does not mean they will not be in the same circle in the future.

If the other three women present knew what she was thinking, they would definitely be shocked.

After all, although the Ning family is now making some money from selling clothes and living a pretty good life, compared with the ten thousand yuan households, it is still a long way off.

Ning Zhihuan calmed the three people down before returning to his room.

Before leaving, Old Mrs. Ning repeatedly warned her not to have any further contact with the man if she felt anything was wrong. She also told her earnestly to think twice before doing anything and not to be misled by appearances.

What else is there, the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is... Maybe he is talking about Xiao Yuchi?

Even when he was lying in bed, Ning Zhihuan was still thinking about what happened in the morning, especially when Xiao Yuchi suddenly approached.

The elegant fragrance of bamboo seems to still linger at the tip of my nose.

Thinking of this, Ning Zhihuan fell asleep unconsciously.

But perhaps it was in line with the old saying "What you think about during the day, you dream about at night", this time, she saw Xiao Yuchi in her dream.
