Mo Qianxue wasn't a fool. She had guessed about the background of Ning Shaoqing when she lied awake in bed at night. Indeed, he was penniless right now, but the elegance and nobility he displayed by every of his gesture and movement shall never belong to an average person.

Perhaps just like those light novels and TV series, he might come from an extraordinary origin and be burdened with sea-deep plan of vengeance.

If she were wise and selfish enough, she should be thinking about how to earn money quick and to get rid of him as soon as possible.

The original owner of this body had a bizarre origin already. If he would also be greeted with a series of troubles, how could she manage to deal with all those unpredictable troubles.

But since she came to this strange world, waking up from every nightmare in panic, she could feel him around her like an embodiment of peace and calmness. She felt that she wasn't alone and that there was still someone out there for her to depend on and to shake off her fear and panic.

She couldn't leave him...

"If you want to compete, I'll help you! If you want to stay here, I'll be by your side."

The was the first sentence Mo Qianxue said after hearing his story. Brief but powerful.

Of course, she didn't know that Ning family ranked first among the super-nobility families of the Tianqi Dynasty, neither would she know that Ning family was earthshakingly powerful in the imperial court.

By Ning Shaoqing's pride, he wouldn't brag the social status of his family. Therefore, Mo Qianxue thought he came from an ordinary big family and underwent ordinary drama of scrambling for family property.

She sympathized with his experience and was also reassured, getting rid of all her former suspicion of him.

Only with this one sentence, Ning Shaoqing's mental scar seemed to be healed in an instant. With such a woman standing by his side, he was even willing to live forever in this remote village.

Even for a moment, he should thank heaven for giving him such an experience so that he was able to meet this woman.

He looked up and smiled softly. The eyes seemed to be filled with clear lake water, flickering with waves of ripples which flew out of his eyes carrying some different expression. Mo Qianxue was enchanted by his eyes, almost falling into the charm of them.

Ning Shaoqing said, "No. If they want it, let them have it. Will you look down upon me for that?"

Mo Qianxue shook her head like a rattle-drum. Just a second ago, she was so afraid that he might go back into the filthy vicious competition within a big family.

Although she didn't fear those feuds in themselves, but she didn't like that kind of life.

Staying here would be better. They could build for a better life while sticking around each other at the same time. Probably, one day they would like and fall in love with each other like a real couple. Then they would earn more money and raise a child together, making a happy family and a perfect life.

Thinking about it, she felt happiness oozing out from her heart, and her head leaned forward involuntarily.

The room was instantly heated up by sensation...

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A continues knocking at the door woke up Mo Qianxue whose movement of leaning forward was stopped at once. At the sight of this amplified handsome face, she involuntarily sprang up, her face flushing.

In order to conceal her fluster, she rushed to open the door, leaving behind her Ning Shaoqing grinning happily.

The spreading grin worth at least one city!
