Xiaoxiao immediately raised two fingers. “There’s no if! There won’t be a next time! If I come again in the future, I’ll definitely report to you first! Otherwise,
I’ll…”
Rong Yan covered her mouth. “Just remember this promise.” Oaths were inauspicious, so it was better not to say them.
Xiaoxiao grabbed his hand and pulled it away gently. She then made a request tentatively. ‘Til listen to Little Big Brother in the future, so, hehe, can Little Big Brother not tell my parents about what happened today?”
Rong Yan was speechless.
At this point, what else could he say? He couldn’t help but pitch the bridge of his nose. “If I had planned to tell them, I wouldn’t have come to you in such a
hurry…”
Xiaoxiao cheered and shook his hand even more. “Little Big Brother is the best!”
The guards were dumbfounded. They never expected their master, who always kept his word, to be so easy to deal with in front of Miss Ning. They even tried to think if they could muddle through like this if they made a mistake in the future. However, they almost vomited out their dinner the night before when they imagined themselves saying under their master’s gaze, “Master, I know my mistake. Don’t be angry, okay?” and “I won’t dare to do it next time.”
Hence, it was better to rely on others to act coquettishly. Miss Ning was just right.
As they were thinking, they saw Miss Ning, who had just received amnesty, peek at their master with flickering eyes. “Um, Little Big Brother, I still need your help to cover up something…”
Rong Yan’s heart skipped a beat. His first reaction was to see if she was injured. Only then did he realize that there was blood on the inside of her sleeve. Ignoring everything else, Rong Yan hurriedly held her hand carefully. “Where are you hurt?”
Xiaoxiao was stunned. She felt the hands holding her tighten and carefully control their strength. Her heart instantly softened. “Little Big Brother, don’t be anxious. It’s not me.”
She simply held Rong Yan’s hand and pulled him to where she was hiding. “This person fainted when he rushed in front of me just now. I saw that Lei Shaoming seemed to be chasing after him, so I hid him.”
Rong Yan felt a headache coming on. This girl was too bold. “Have you thought of the consequences if Lei Shaoming saw you just now?
He would probably kill to silence her?
Xiaoxiao tilted her head. She definitely did not understand what she should not understand.
Rong Yan couldn’t bear to scare her. “Remember, if you encounter such a thing again in the future, run away first.”
“Nothing is more important than your own life.”
Xiaoxiao nodded obediently. If the space could not hold a living person, she would have run away herself.
This scene agitated the guards again—who was the person who was whispering now? Huh?
Anyway, it was definitely not their master. Their master would only sneer and ask, “Do you want to die?”
Just as they were thinking this, they saw Rong Yan turn around and look at them unkindly. His gaze was clearly saying, Why? Do you want me to go to the bushes to fish him out myself?
The guards reacted quickly and did their jobs.
Xiaoxiao said, “He is seriously injured. Is County Magistrate Shen still here? If he is, you’d better ask him to ask Doctor Gongsun for help.”
Rong Yan also realized that other than the arrow in his shoulder, the unconscious youth had also suffered many fatal injuries. All kinds of signs indicated that Lei Shaoming did not intend to leave him alive, which made
Rong Yan even more afraid.
If Lei Shaoming realized that Xiaoxiao was with this young man… Xiaoxiao was glared at, but she didn’t dare to protest. At this moment, besides being touched, she couldn’t help but be puzzled. Was Little Big Brother’s identity really as he said, just an ordinary down-and-out young master?
Could the “ordinary” young masters in this space-time have the same aura as him just now?
However, who cared? Little Big Brother had no ill intentions towards her and even took good care of her.
Xiaoxiao, who was in deep thought, subconsciously ignored some details. She only came back to her senses when she heard a shrill female voice. At this moment, they had already reached the foot of the mountain. Due to Lei Shaoming’s delay, the sky was already dark. However, this level of darkness did not prevent Xiaoxiao from seeing the face of the person who was screaming.
“Little Aunt?”
Little Aunt Ning was pointing at Xiaoxiao and Rong Yan’s hands in fear. “You, you, Ning Xiaoxiao, you’re simply shameless!”
Xiaoxiao was confused. She followed her gaze and looked down. Oh my god, she forgot that she was still holding Little Big Brother’s hand.
As heaven and earth could see, she had really forgotten and Little Big Brother happened to not resist or pull his hand away. It was also possible that he was worried that she would be afraid and comforted her considerately.
However, Little Aunt Ning did not care. She only knew that the silly and useless wild girl at home was shamelessly pestering that extremely good-looking Young Master Zhao! How dare she! She had clearly taken a fancy to this young master first!
She had wanted to look for this young master several times in the past few days, but it was all in vain. It was not easy for her to meet him. How could Ning Xiaoxiao beat her to it!
Perhaps she was used to tyrannizing others in the past, Little Aunt Ning rushed over to push Xiaoxiao without thinking.
With Rong Yan around, how could Little Aunt Ning succeed?
Xiaoxiao didn’t see him move much, but she felt someone gently pull her arm. With a slip of her toes, she moved half a meter away from her original position. This distance made Little Aunt Ning miss and fall face-first. It could be seen how much strength she used just now.
Xiaoxiao naturally did not sympathize with Little Aunt Ning. She widened her eyes and looked at Rong Yan. “Is this the legendary Wave-Like Subtle Steps? Rong Yan burst out laughing. This was the first time he had seen Xiaoxiao make a fuss. Usually, she was either mischievous or pretending to be mature. She never panicked when something happened. Why was she so excited to reveal this side of her that belonged to a child just because of a movement technique?
Rong Yan, who thought this way, did not have the self-awareness that he was only a few years older than Xiaoxiao, nor did he know that the smile on his face was rare for him. Anyway, Xiaoxiao was dazzled. All she could think about was that ancient handsome men were so f*cking good-looking!
The way the two of them looked at each other made Little Aunt Ning even more jealous. “Ning Xiaoxiao, let go of Young Master Zhao!”
Xiaoxiao looked down at Rong Yan’s hand that was holding her arm. At this moment, someone with a low EQ. would answer, “He was clearly the one who held me.” Xiaoxiao, who thought that she had a high EQ, pursed her lips. I won’t. If you continue nagging, believe it or not, I can be even more unscrupulous!”
A question popped up in Rong Yan’s mind at an inappropriate time. How unscrupulous can it be exactly?
Almost immediately, he hurriedly suppressed this outrageous thought. However, he did not let go of Xiaoxiao immediately. The Ning Family’s old residence was full of weirdos. God knew what Little Aunt Ning would do next.
Little Aunt Ning was about to go crazy. “Young Master Zhao, don’t be fooled by this brat’s pretentious behavior. A bad girl like her is not worthy of you at all!” Xiaoxiao spoke quickly. “If I’m not worthy, are you worthy?”
Little Aunt Ning actually became shy and even winked at Rong Yan flirtatiously. “I’m the future Xiucai’s sister after all.. Who do you think you are? You’re just a farmer who’s digging in the soil!”
