Chapter 14

Leng Linglong originally hated Ye Ningxuan very much and felt that she had snatched Zhan Hanjue away.

But now that she’d heard what she’d said, she instantly liked her. She quickly pulled her to a seat. “Tell me quickly. What did Cousin tell you about me?”

Ye Ningxuan chuckled and said slowly, “We just met and aren’t particularly familiar with each other. Since we got married, he hasn’t been with me. He only brought me along today. He didn’t say much. He just said that there’s a beautiful and cute girl here who’s very important to him. He told me to be respectful and polite and not make her angry. Otherwise, he’ll make me kneel on the washboard when I go back and won’t give me food.”

Leng Linglong couldn’t help but laugh.

Then, he said proudly, “You don’t have to be afraid. My cousin is just scaring you. He usually doesn’t like to talk to people. He won’t make you kneel on the washboard or not give you food. Besides, I won’t complain to my cousin that you made me angry.”

“Thank you so much, Miss Leng.” Ye Ningxuan was grateful.

Leng Linglong said proudly, “Sure, sure. You just have to listen to me in the future. I’ll definitely put in a good word for you in front of my cousin and not let him punish you easily.”

“Miss Leng, you’re so beautiful and kind. You and Mr. Zhan are a match made in heaven.”

“You think so too? I’ve always thought so too.” Leng Linglong became happier and more pleased with herself. She found Ye Ningxuan more pleasing to the eye.

Ye Ningxuan sighed pitifully. “To be honest, Miss Leng, the Ye family can’t tolerate me, so they made me marry into the Zhan family. I live in fear and trepidation every day. I just want to live. However, Mr. Zhan doesn’t have a good temper. Of course, you think that he has a good temper, but it’s different for me. Therefore, I don’t know what to do. Can Miss Leng give me some pointers and help me?”

“But I rarely spend time with my cousin. He doesn’t like to come here. The old lady probably asked him to come over today.” Leng Linglong was troubled.

“Isn’t Mrs. Leng Mr. Zhan’s aunt? Why isn’t Mr. Zhan happy to come?” Ye Ningxuan wondered.

Leng Linglong shook her head. “I’m not sure about the details. It seems… to be related to the car accident thirteen years ago. My cousin’s father died in that car accident, and my cousin lost his sight in that car accident. At that time, someone suspected that Auntie was the one who did it. Hmph, how is that possible? Auntie is my cousin’s biological aunt. How could she do anything to her younger brother and nephew? Maybe my cousin took these words to heart, so he didn’t like to come to the Leng family’s home.”

Ye Ningxuan’s eyes darkened. Was the car accident back then also related to the Leng family?

“Sometimes, I wonder if my cousin still thinks that it has something to do with the Leng family, so he’s unwilling to marry me.” Leng Linglong sighed.

Ye Ningxuan came back to her senses and looked at her disappointed expression. She smiled and comforted her. “You’re thinking too much about it. Didn’t you say that Mr. Zhan wanted to marry a woman like me who he didn’t care about because he was destined to be alone? Of course he couldn’t bear to let you take the risk.”

“That’s true. In that case, you’ve become my benefactor. Don’t worry, if you accidentally die, I’ll definitely bury you well,” Leng Linglong promised.

Ye Ningxuan was speechless.

“Then I’ll thank you in advance. However, you just said that Mr. Zhan’s eyes were blinded that time. What happened?” Ye Ningxuan asked again.

Leng Linglong said, “I know that. I heard from Auntie that after the car accident, my cousin was seriously injured. When he woke up, he couldn’t see. The old lady cried for a long time. She found many famous doctors and even went overseas for treatment, but it was useless. Two years ago, I heard that there was a divine doctor called Bai Zhi that my cousin has been sending people to look for, but there has been no news.”

Ye Ningxuan smiled.

It turned out that Zhan Hanjue had never seen Bai Zhi and was only looking for her.

Great. She could use this opportunity to ask him some things.

“Ye Ningxuan.”

A sudden shout startled Ye Ningxuan and Leng Linglong.

They both looked up quickly and saw that Zhan Hanjue had arrived with his butler.

Ye Ningxuan quickly stood up and walked towards Zhan Hanjue.

“You’re done speaking to your aunt? Are we going back?”

“Cousin, I was chatting with Miss Ye. She’s really a good person. Don’t punish her when you go back.” Leng Linglong ran over and pleaded for Ye Ningxuan.

Ye Ningxuan bit her lip. Why did this girl really say such things?

Indeed.

Zhan Hanjue’s expression turned cold. He turned to Ye Ningxuan and said in a low and cold voice, “Punish?”

Ye Ningxuan explained with a smile, “Miss Leng and I hit it off at first sight. Miss Leng is just worried about me.”

Zhan Hanjue snorted.

Leng Linglong couldn’t help but reach out to take Zhan Hanjue’s hand. “Cousin, you weren’t here at noon…”

However, as soon as she touched him, she was ruthlessly shaken off by Zhan Hanjue.

Leng Linglong was slender. When he flung her, she staggered and almost fell.

She bit her lip and looked at Zhan Hanjue pitifully. She was about to cry.

Ye Ningxuan couldn’t stand it anymore and accused Zhan Han, “Miss Leng simply likes you. You’re too heartless.”

Zhan Hanjue’s face fell again. He said nothing. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her away.

“It hurts. Let go of me,” Ye Ningxuan shouted in pain.

But Zhan Hanjue’s expression was dark and he didn’t say a word. He didn’t let go of her until he had stuffed her into the car.

Ye Ningxuan was in so much pain that tears welled up in her eyes. Before she could check if her wrist was bruised, she was strangled by Zhan Hanjue.

Ye Ningxuan’s eyes widened.

Could it be that he wanted to kill her?

One hand went to the silver needle.

However, as if he had a third eye, Zhan Hanjue grabbed her hand that was about to touch the silver needle.

“Do you think that if I’ve suffered once, I’ll suffer again?” Zhan Hanjue said coldly as he approached her.

Ye Ningxuan tried to break free, but she couldn’t.

A wise man knows when to retreat. She could only squeeze her eyes hard, intending to squeeze out a few tears to gain sympathy.

But then she remembered that he was blind and couldn’t see her crying.

Hence, she could only plead coquettishly, “Hubby, what did I do wrong to make you so angry? Tell me, I promise I won’t do it again.”

“Don’t try to wheedle with me.” Not only did Zhan Hanjue not soften, but he even tightened his grip.

Ye Ningxuan felt like she couldn’t breathe. She was suffocating.

She knew that if he used more strength, he would strangle her.

Her mind raced as she continued to plead in a weak voice, “It doesn’t matter if you kill me… If Grandma finds out… she’ll definitely be very sad. The last time I… looked at Grandma… I found that her health isn’t good, right?! It doesn’t matter if I die, but I’m afraid… Grandma won’t be able to take it.”

As expected, at the mention of Old Madam Zhan, Zhan Hanjue’s grip loosened.

Ye Ningxuan continued, “Besides, I know you’re looking for Bai Zhi. I know her whereabouts. Let me go and I’ll tell you.”

“Okay, deal.” Zhan Hanjue finally let go.
