The Devious First Daughter

Chapter 92. Prince Yi is moved

Although he and Ning Xueyan came here today to specifically find out about the effect of Ning Yuling's matter, it was hard for him to talk about it.

"The carriage crashed. For some reason, both carriages met with accidents. One of them was smashed. As for the other one, it did not break, but..." Ning Huaijing could not say it. He looked embarrassed, but he could not hide these things from the others.

"I heard that the Second Young Lady and the Fifth Young Lady were in the carriages of the Lord Protector's Manor, and they were on their way to visit the Eldest Young Lady. They ran into the Eldest Young Lady's husband enroute. Then, something happened. The Second Young Lady and her brother-in-law hugged each other. The scene was hot." Brother Yan covered his face with a fan and then tilted his head forward. He lowered his voice and asked curiously.

"How did the Second Young Lady get undressed in the carriage? The Fifth Young Lady's carriage also crashed. Apart from getting a fright and nearly losing her life, she is fine!"

It was hard for Ning Huaijing to answer. He did not know why Ning Yuling did such a crazy thing in the carriage. Otherwise, such a thing would not have happened when she was trying to escape from the carriage. Besides, she also had bruises on her body, so it was beyond explanation.

"Second Young Master Ning, I heard that the Eldest Young Master of Minister Xia had a marriage arrangement with the Eldest Young Lady of the Lord Protector's Manor since they were very young?" Hua Yunheng, who was sitting on one side, changed the topic at the right time, which defused Ning Huaijing's embarrassment.

"I heard that it's true. They must have been engaged for many years." Ning Huaijing nodded. All the people in the manor told him about this.

"Do all the girls in the capital marry so late? I heard that the First Young Lady Ning was already 17 years old, wasn't she?" Hua Yunheng seemed to be quite puzzled and asked.

Women usually got married at the age of 16, or even earlier. Such a case was rare. Ning Ziyan could even be called an old spinster.

Speaking of this, Ning Xueyan also felt suspicious. She fluttered her long eyelashes as a trace of puzzlement flashed in her watery eyes. She held her breath and listened carefully. The Xia Manor and the Ning Manor had spread the news that Xia Yuhang and Ning Ziyan had been engaged for a long time. How could they not let this matter go on? Moreover, they made it seem as if Ning Ziyan was an old spinster.

"I heard that there was some kind of dispute in this matter. I'm not sure about the details, but it seems..." Ning Huaijing spoke with some hesitation. He had only been back for a few days, so he did not really care about it at all.

"I am speaking out of turn." Hua Yunheng smiled and stopped asking. He said in a gentle tone, "I heard that the Eldest Young Master of the Xia family has an unusual literary talent. If possible, please introduce him to me."

Did Brother Hua want to get to know Xia Yuhang? It turned out that Brother Hua had taken a longer route in order to get to know Xia Yuhang. Ning Xueyan was deep in thought. She did not understand why Hua Yunheng wanted to get to know Xia Yuhang, and why he wanted to befriend Xia Yuhang. No wonder she felt that Brother Yan was overly enthusiastic just now.

It seemed that he had been looking for Ning Huaijing for several days. Now, he was pleased to have found him.

But why did Brother Hua want to get to know Xia Yuhang? Ning Xueyan frowned slightly and glanced at Hua Yunheng quietly. Unexpectedly, she saw a pair of bright eyes looking back at her. Both of them seemed to be surprised. Hua Yunheng even smiled at her. Ning Xueyan opened her mouth, but she did not utter the word "brother" in the end. She hurriedly pretended to peek at him and lowered her head in a panic.
