The Devious First Daughter

Chapter 67. Coincidences made Countermeasure superior

"What's the matter, Third Prince?" Ning Xueyan handed the ointment to Ning Lingyun, and asked her to apply the medication on Ning Qingshan. No one noticed the alertness in her eyes. She did not think Ao Mingyu would notice it in such a situation.

"Fifth Young Lady... Could you do me a favor?" Ao Mingyu hesitated for a moment, as if he was too embarrassed to speak.

Ning Xueyan did not say anything and waited quietly for Ao Mingyu to speak. Her jet-black eyes were cold and indifferent. She did not want to have anything to do with Ao Mingyu, but it was evident that the Third Prince was not of the same mind. Although he did not turn his head, Ning Xueyan knew his eyes had a trace of jealousy in them.

Ao Mingyu used to feel rancor for Ning Qingshan because he wanted to pull Ning Qingshan down from the position of the first wife. At the same time, he also wanted to remove Ya Moqin, who was arrogant and domineering, from the position of the first wife. Killing two birds with one stone would be an ideal move, but she did not think it had anything to do with her.

So, she did not say anything and waited for Ao Mingyu to speak.

"Fifth Young Lady, could you go downstairs with me? I want to talk about Third Young Lady and apologize to the marquis." Ao Mingyu asked gently.

The gazes directed at her, from behind him, were even colder. The two ladies, who were applying the medication, were looking at her with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

It seemed that Ao Mingyu had done Ning Xueyan a favor. As the most promising Third Prince, he had invited Ning Xueyan to accompany him downstairs and explain to the Lord Protector's Manor. Of course, he did this for the sake of the Lord Protector's Manor and that of the Grand Tutor Ya's Manor, and even for the sake of friendship between liegemen.

Anyway, both Grand Tutor Ya and Ning Zu'an said that they would support Ao Mingyu. The relationship between them was harmonious, and they could not have some conflicts due to their little sisters. It was reasonable for Ao Mingyu to do something like this.

"But why her?"

Outside, many people were staring at them. If she was with Ao Mingyu, it would set a lot of tongues wagging and lead to a lot of rumors.

"Your Highness, please go ahead. I'll help Third Sister to take a look before coming over." Ning Xueyan refused directly.

The smile froze on Ao Mingyu's face. Ao Mingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, but he did not say anything more. He turned around and walked out.

Seeing that Ning Xueyan refused Ao Mingyu without any hesitation and was indifferent, with Ao Mingyu's warning, Ya Moqin did not do anything to Ning Xueyan. She asked the maid to apply the medication on her, meekly. This time, she and Ning Qingshan were both injured. Both of them had slapped each other. It seemed that neither of them lost out.

After waiting for a while, Ning Xueyan thought it was about time, so she opened the door and went out. Anyway, she had to give face to Third Prince, Ao Mingyu. Now that she had promised him, she had to show her face.

When she returned to the private room, she found that Ao Mingyu was still there. After greeting Ao Mingyu, Madam Dowager asked a few questions about Ning Qingshan's current situation and knew that she was fine. So she asked her to accompany Ning Qingshan. Ao Mingyu must have said something before, so Madam Dowager did not appear to be angry.

"Is the thing between Princely Heir of Commandery Prince Li and Third Young Lady of the Lord Protector's Manor, true?"

"Maybe. Otherwise, why did First Young Lady Ya make such a fuss? Moreover, when First Young Lady Ya bullied Third Young Lady just now, the Princely Heir of Commandery Prince Yi came out and slapped her. If it had nothing to do with her, he would not have done this for Third Young Lady."
