The Devious First Daughter

Chapter 64. Competition of Earrings and Hairpins

Looking at Ning Xueyan's mischievous look, the young man in white could not help smiling. He sat opposite her and looked around. Suddenly his face sank. "Where have your maids gone?"

"Tell me first, where is your servant?" Ning Xueyan smiled and asked Ming Yuanhua. What a coincidence that she could see Ming Yuanhua here.

After Ming Yuanhua knew her situation and her misfortune, he had no longer ignored her.

"There was a man who was surreptitiously speaking to someone when I saw him. He looked like he was from your house, and I wanted to ask if there was anything wrong, so I followed him." Ming Yuanhua smiled indifferently and took over the teacup from the owner of the tea house.

The rescuer talked with the one who was rescued and they drank tea together. Seeing this, the crowd felt bored and they all dispersed.

"Let me guess, is that person the reputable second son of the Xia family?" she asked in a pleasant mood. Ning Xueyan took a sip of the tea and put down the teacup, stroking the handle.

"My cousin, you already knew it even though you didn't see it. Have you known this in advance?" Ming Yuanhua didn't expect that Ning Xueyan had foreseen it. He frowned and felt that something was wrong. "Has he followed you in secret recently?"

The man was Xia Yudong indeed, and Ning Qingshan seemed very obsessed with him. Why did she firmly believe that Ning Xueyan would be interested in Xia Yudong? How could Ning Qingshan have no idea what happened previously at home? Or was Ning Qingshan thinking that Ning Xueyan would believe that Xia Yudong was framed and she would feel sorry for him?

Ning Qingshan repeatedly made her encounter Xia Yudong. When they were in the Third Prince's courtyard, Xia Yudong had no chance to show up. Ning Qingshan actually wanted to help Xia Yudong be the "hero".

Xia Yuhang was very kind to his younger brother. It was only a few days after that matter and he already had forgotten about it.

"Where is he now?" Ning Xueyan's long eyelashes flickered, and the smile in her eyes became cold.

"In the alley over there. I knocked him out in the back and asked my servant to question him. If I knew he was going to set you up, I would have killed him." Ming Huayuan was an expert and he didn't think too much at that time. When he knew that Xia Yudong was going to hurt Ning Xueyan, he became angry.

"Cousin, don't worry. Listen to me first." Ning Xueyan smiled and stopped him. She approached him and whispered. Ming Huayuan listened and nodded. And then in the end, he stood up and said goodbye to Ning Xueyan. Ning Xueyan didn't say anything. She just stood up and gave him a bow.

Watching him go away gently, Ning Xueyan put on a soft smile.

Ning Qingshan happened to see all of that when she returned and she could not help showing a proud smile. But in the next moment, she put on a panicked face and rushed over. She grabbed Ning Xueyan's hand and said, "Fifth Sister, what happened? I just heard that some punks have come and harassed you. Are you okay? I should have left Qingyu with you."

"I'm fine. A young man happened to save me just now," Ning Xueyan said shyly.

"Who was the young man? Do we know him? We must let Father go to thank him tomorrow," Ning Qingshan asked with concern.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow. Third Sister and Fourth Sister, have you finished shopping or you want to continue?" Ning Xueyan seemed unwilling to talk about it. She stood up and walked out of the tea house.

Ning Qingshan had achieved her goal. "Ning Xueyan finally has taken a shine to Xia Yudong, but I should be patient. Since he has helped her today, they will be tied together in the future." Ning Qingshan stopped asking and caught up with Ning Xueyan. They walked shoulder to shoulder to look at the lanterns.
