She was trapped in that small room for a long time, feeling inferior and traumatized, and thought she was unworthy, so she kept brainwashing Xiao Yong'an into not liking her.
Once she has successfully brainwashed herself, if Xiao Yong'an confesses his feelings again, Gao Lingxiao will definitely think that Xiao Yong'an doesn't really like her, but only pities her.
Either seize the moment now, or...
That would be difficult.
“But I…” Xiao Yong’an said shyly, his face flushed.
He was afraid of being rejected.
"Cellphone." Ning Yuan looked at Xiao Yong'an as if he were some worthless piece of trash and said coldly.
Xiao Yong'an was already afraid of Ning Yuan, so when he heard Ning Yuan ask for his phone, he obediently handed it to him.
"Password," Ning Yuan said coldly.
“Yes.” Xiao Yong’an answered honestly.
Just as Xiao Yong'an was about to ask Ning Yuan a question, he saw Ning Yuan quickly type a few words and then hand the phone back to Xiao Yong'an, saying, "Done."
Xiao Yong'an looked down and saw that his phone screen was showing his chat history with Gao Lingxiao.
Ning Yuan only sent one line: "Can I treat you to dinner tonight?"
Below, Gao Lingxiao replied with a "good".
One word, simple.
A wave of emotion washed over Xiao Yong'an, and his hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably.
Eat, have a meal?
Doesn't that mean we'll meet?
“You two are a good match,” Ning Yuan said.
"If you like her, then pursue her without regrets and express your truest feelings."
"Whether they agree or not is their business."
Ning Yuan spoke like an elder.
He doesn't want people who like each other to end up not being able to be together.
The two were just one chance away.
Now, they have created the opportunity; whether they can seize it is up to them.
"Of course, proceed gradually, so as not to... frighten the other party," Ning Yuan instructed, glancing at Jiang Yuan out of the corner of his eye.
He also needs to proceed gradually, and not be as unreliable as before, lest he frighten his Ah Yuan.
"Yes!" Xiao Yong'an mustered his courage and replied, casting a grateful glance at Ning Yuan.
He announced that from this moment on, Ning Yuan would be his elder brother!
"Keep it up," Ning Yuan encouraged.
Xiao Yong'an was much luckier than him, because he and Gao Lingxiao were both ordinary people.
They can stay together until they grow old and die.
But for him to stay by his beloved A-Yuan's side was a luxury.
However, things are different now.
He can stay by her side forever, even if she goes to the underworld.
Jiang Yuan's eyes were filled with surprise.
She never expected to hear such encouraging words from Ning Yuan one day.
"Ah Yuan, am I right?" Ning Yuan winked at Jiang Yuan, expectantly waiting for her praise.
He is not static; he is constantly changing.
“That’s right,” Jiang Yuan replied with a smile.
Ning Yuan's eyes curved slightly, and he was in a great mood.
"I need to make a good impression on Lingxiao on our first meeting. Big brother, Master Jiang, I... I'll go home and change my clothes first."
"Oh right, I also need to buy a bouquet of flowers and a gift."
Xiao Yong'an was so nervous that he didn't know what to do.
He was sweating profusely, even his palms were sweaty.
After saying that, Xiao Yong'an left in a hurry.
His older brother only said he'd treat him to dinner that night, but didn't say where. He needs to pick a good place.
Watching Xiao Yong'an's departing figure, Jiang Yuan shook her head and smiled faintly.
Gao Lingxiao had stayed at home for so many years and was afraid of everything outside.
But when Xiao Yong'an spoke up, she agreed to go out.
This means that she is willing to try for Xiao Yong'an and to get to know him.
It seems we'll be able to attend their wedding banquet soon.
"Big brother?" Ning Yuan frowned slightly.
Was Xiao Yong'an calling him "Big Brother"?
"Congratulations, you have a new little brother," Jiang Yuan teased.
"I don't want a younger brother," Ning Yuan said with disdain.
My younger brother is a real pain.
He doesn't want it.
All he wanted was Jiang Yuan.
“You say I’m not honest, but you seem to be too,” Jiang Yuan replied.
“I’m being very honest,” Ning Yuan said earnestly.
He simply hoped that lovers would eventually be together.
But I never expected that just helping out casually would earn me the title of "Big Brother".
Calling him "big brother" is a win for Xiao Yong'an no matter how you look at it.
At his actual age, he is more than old enough to be a great-grandfather.
Xiao Yong'an made a fortune.
"Ah Yuan, can you take me somewhere?" Jiang Yuan asked.
Ning Yuan's expression changed slightly. He stopped dwelling on Xiao Yong'an calling him "big brother" and looked at Jiang Yuan in astonishment, as if his heart had been struck by something.
"What did you call me?" Ning Yuan asked incredulously, suppressing his excitement, but his voice trembled slightly.
"You call me A-Yuan, and I call you A-Yuan. Is there anything wrong with that?" Jiang Yuan asked.
Although the name sounds a bit strange, but—
She also hopes that he can move on from the past, live well, and enjoy the present.
He was no longer the emperor of the Li Kingdom, but Ning Yuan of the Ning family.
She was luckier than him; she had no memories of her past, so she lived happily for nearly a thousand years.
But he should retain his past memories in each reincarnation.
She, along with the ministers and people who had left the country, all died before his eyes. How much pressure and how deep a shadow must he have been under?
Those with weaker mental fortitude would definitely not be able to get over this hurdle.
He hoped she would be attentive, and now she is attentive and emotional.
She also hopes that he can move on from the past, have a new life, and not take everything on his own shoulders.
“That’s right.” Ning Yuan’s lips curled into a smile, his eyes as clear as autumn water.
He really liked the nickname "Ah Yuan".
For a moment, Qian Gui felt that he was in the way.
Yes, it's an eyesore.
“Since Master Jiang has other matters to attend to, then I will take my leave as well. Please rest assured, Master Jiang, I will keep an eye on things at the school. You can go and participate in the variety show with peace of mind. My wife, children, and I will definitely watch the live broadcast on time! We will cheer for Master Jiang!” Qian Gui said.
“Okay,” Jiang Yuan replied.
After Qian Gui left, Jiang Yuan gave Ning Yuan an address.
Ning Yuan didn't ask any more questions and went to the address Jiang Yuan gave him.
Meanwhile, another incident has caused a huge uproar.
Many people have received lawyer's letters...
Moreover, most of those who received the lawyer's letter were Jiang Yusi's fans.
When they mentioned it in the group chat, they discovered that many people had received it, and Jiang Ningyuan's name was on it.
The general meaning is...
They fabricated rumors and spread false gossip, and I have decided to sue them.
They initially thought it was a prank, but upon investigation, they discovered it was a lawyer's letter from the Ning family's top lawyer.
Jiang Ningyuan wants to sue them!
Jiang Yusi's fans felt that Jiang Ningyuan was petty and criticized him so much that he became a trending topic on social media...
