Chapter 24

She Was Simply Wasting Brother Lie’s Heart!

The three of them turned and walked away.

Nian Che rushed to her. “Little sister-in-law, I finally found you!”

Ning Qing’s grip on the wine glass relaxed. She glanced at the person and did not speak.

Nian Che lowered his body and looked at her beautiful face. He was a little worried despite being stunned.

“Sister-in-law, why is your face so pale? Are you feeling unwell?”

Ning Qing avoided him and put down the wine glass. “It’s nothing.”

“Don’t stand on ceremony with me. We’re family.”

Nian Che’s handsome brows furrowed tightly, his concern was evident.

“If you really encounter something, tell me. Otherwise, if my brother finds out, he’ll think that I didn’t take good care of you.”

“…”

Everyone around him knew how Nian Lie treated her. Did Nian Che really not know or was he pretending not to know?

Ning Qing looked at him for a long time. Other than seriousness, there was really no trace of disguise on the man’s face.

She lowered her eyes, her face expressionless. “I’m really fine.”

“Sister-in-law, you…”

“She said she’s fine. Don’t use your hot face to stick to her cold ass.”

Su Yinuo, who was wearing a pink dress, jumped out of nowhere and mocked him sarcastically.

When Nian Che saw Su Yinuo, he felt uncomfortable.

He had never liked this woman since he was young. She followed behind his brother all day and shouted that she wanted to marry him.

If he had not gone overseas and heard her howl for another two years, he would have had a heart attack.

Nian Che despised her.

“What does my concern for my sister-in-law have to do with you? Go away.”

Su Yinuo choked on his words and said unhappily, “The venue is so big. I can go wherever I want.”

“Then please find a corner to bury yourself in to prevent yourself from coming out to disgust others.”

Su Yinuo was furious. “Nian Che, can you be more gentlemanly? Must you go against me?”

Nian Che said disdainfully, “A gentleman is good to good people, but you’re not.”

Su Yinuo gritted her teeth in hatred.

She had not won against him since she was young.

Her furious gaze moved from that handsome face to Ning Qing.

She smiled coldly and mocked her relentlessly. “Sister is really awesome. You can even do such a thing as hiding behind others.”

Ning Qing’s gaze darkened. Her red lips moved, but Nian Che’s figure blocked her.

She was stunned.

The man’s broad shoulders were in front of her.

Nian Che raised his chin, his eyes filled with arrogance and disdain. “Su Yinuo, if you’re jealous, so be it. Don’t put your anger on my sister-in-law.”

The woman’s eyes widened as if she had heard something ridiculous.

“I… I’m jealous of her?”

She pointed at Ning Qing and found it funny.

“What’s there to be jealous of about her?!”

There was a hint of pride in Nian Che’s voice. “She’s my sister-in-law!”

Su Yinuo sneered. “Don’t you know if she’s worthy of Brother Lie?!”

“If she’s not worthy, are you?”

Su Yinuo felt frustrated. She clenched her fists.

“Nian Che, you’re the only one in the Nian family who acknowledges her. Uncle and Auntie Nian don’t care about her at all!”

Nian Che gave a fake smile. “It doesn’t matter if they take her seriously or not…”

Su Yinuo refused to let go of this. “When Uncle and Auntie heard that Brother Lie was going to bring her here, they left early. Doesn’t this mean anything?”

“…”

She listened to the two of them argue. Her initial surprise slowly calmed down and was replaced with confusion.

She was a little shocked that Nian Che had stood up for her.

But did his parents not like her?

Ning Qing looked past the man’s shoulder and saw the flustered Su Yinuo.

The other party was staring at her fiercely. He said indignantly and hatefully, “Besides, it’s a waste of Brother Lie’s consideration for her to dress like this!”

Consideration?

Ning Qing frowned. “What do you mean?”

Before she could answer, a hand wrapped around her waist.

Ning Qing’s body froze. The heat spread from her waist to her entire back.

Warm breaths sprayed behind her ears. She instantly did not dare to move again, and a deep voice exploded in her ears.

“What are you talking about?”
