Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Important People to Me 4
Ning Xixi’s strong attitude caught both Ning Jingshen and Lu Qinghe off guard!
In their minds, Ning Xixi was a woman as gentle and sweet as Song Weiyang.
"Xixi, are you trying to infuriate your father to death?" Ning Jingshen bellowed, beating his chest in frustration.
Lu Qinghe hastily stepped forward to support him, patting his back to ease his breath, "Old Ning, don’t be angry, sigh... Your high blood pressure is acting up because of this girl!"
Ning Xixi looked at Lu Qinghe with scorn, pretending to be kind and caring. If it wasn’t for her bringing up the topic, could she have angered Ning Jingshen?
"Xixi, when will you change your rebellious nature!"
Hearing her father’s words, full of disappointed hope, Ning Xixi’s eyes reddened slightly.
She felt aggrieved on behalf of Song Weiyang.
She could have chosen a man like Grandpa Ji, who would remain by her side for life, never remarrying even after death.
But she chose Ning Jingshen.
One wrong step led to many more.
Ning Jingshen failed her, betrayed the passion of her youth and the vows they once made.
"Dad, if my mom wasn’t rebellious, she wouldn’t have married you."
These words, like thunder, exploded in the hospital room!
Ning Jingshen’s face was full of astonishment, his lips parted as if to speak, but he found himself unable to refute.
Lu Qinghe thought of Song Weiyang’s glorious past years and couldn’t help but curse in her heart that woman a slut.
"Qiaoqiao, let’s go." Ning Xixi tugged at Qiao Nancheng’s sleeve, and with a darkening gaze, he followed her out of the hospital room.
He hugged Ning Xixi, his chest trembling, and he awkwardly began, "The things you said just now, were they all true?"
To him, she was more important than family.
He wasn’t someone who would be abandoned at any time, right?
To Ning Xixi, he was also an important person, right?
Qiao Nancheng’s cautiousness made Ning Xixi feel a bit heartache; they shared the same blood type, and it was Qiao Nancheng’s blood that had saved her during the car accident of their childhood.
He had given half his life to save hers.
With his youth, he accompanied her as she grew up, shielding her against the storms with his back.
She knew all of this.
"I owe you a thank you..."
Qiao Nancheng shook his head, his eyes shiny and moist, "Don’t... don’t say thank you..."
"Are you guys done hugging?" A cold and bone-chilling voice intruded Ning Xixi’s ears.
She was stunned, following the direction of the voice, Ji Yebai’s narrow eyes were filled with murderous intent, his slender fingers toyed with a cigarette, lending him an air of wicked charm mixed with a hint of roguishness.
"Ji Yebai..."
Qiao Nancheng pursed his lips, a flash of melancholy in his eyes, and he released Ning Xixi.
The next moment, Ji Yebai struck Qiao Nancheng with a punch as swift as lightning!
Qiao Nancheng, tall and sturdy, staggered, using his arm to block in a defensive posture.
"Ji Yebai! Stop hitting him!" Ning Xixi tugged at him, only to be restrained by Ji Yebai as he pinned her wrist against the wall behind them. In his deep, dark eyes, shadows gathered, "In your heart, who’s more important to you, Young Master Ji or this Qiao fool?"
What kind of a childish question was this? Ning Xixi had a headache.
Every day he was a jealous Demon!
"Ji Yebai, my hand hurts, can you let go please..."
Her wrist was already reddened by Lu Qinghe, and now, grasped by Ji Yebai, it was truly uncomfortable.
Yet Ji Yebai thought she was trying to evade, and the shadows in his eyes grew darker and heavier...
"Ning Xixi! Answer me!"
