It was because of these reasons that Ning Yan’er’s previously relentless confidence in claiming Xi Mohan collapsed in an instant when Xi Mohan brought up dissolving the engagent. It also made her realize that if she didn’t win Xi Mohan back now, the position of the Xi Family’s Young Mistress might slip past her for the rest of her life.
Half sitting on the bed, Ning Wan looked up at Ning Yan’er who was standing over her. Despite their positions, Ning Wan’s montum didn’t fall short of Ning Yan’er’s. Her delicate face had already regained its color, and with the nutritious als prepared by the caregiver and Lu Jingchen’s aunt that she had been eating every day, her cheeks looked fuller and her beauty even more outstanding.
Having already lost a child, Ning Wan’s presence was becoming stronger. She gazed indifferently at Ning Yan’er in front of her and said with a smile, "Do you think I want Xi Mohan? You treasure him and clutch tightly, not willing to let go—I, Ning Wan, am not necessarily like you. As for your Xi Mohan, if you want him, you can take him, and it would be best to keep him far away from my world."
Ning Yan’er’s mind exploded with a ’boom’ upon hearing this, her eyes tightening with disbelief as she looked at Ning Wan. How could she possibly misunderstand the aning of those words?
But is Xi Mohan... really the kind of man Ning Wan describes?
Is he really the one keeping Ning Wan trapped by his side?
On the way here, she had already guessed this possibility, but still didn’t dare to conclude that it was true. Now, after hearing from Ning Wanshuo, she had to face reality. Even though her heart was still unwilling, she bit her lip and said, "Ning Wan, do you think I’ll believe you just by saying this? If you want to leave, I don’t believe you can’t make Li Kai do it."
The corner of Ning Wan’s mouth twitched. She desperately wanted to spit blood on this woman who had always held her to such high expectations.
Did she not want to leave this place? Those bodyguards that Xi Mohan dispatched, under the guise of protecting her but actually surveilling her, if soone could just get rid of them, she would leave imdiately.
"Ning Yan’er, why are you here?" Just at that mont, the door to the sickroom opened and a man in a white shirt and black trousers walked in. Seeing Ning Yan’er by the bed, his eyes narrowed slightly and his face darkened imdiately, his voice already carrying a chill.
When Ning Yan’er turned around, she saw Xi Mohan looking at her with a shadow over his gaze, directly colliding with those deep eyes. She was so frightened that she couldn’t help but step back, her face showing disbelief and shock, as if she didn’t expect him to appear so quickly, and even more so... she didn’t expect that the man before her now bore such a cold deanor towards her.
A wave of discomfort surged in Ning Yan’er’s heart, but after a mont, she clenched her fists and responded to Xi Mohan with a cold smile, "Of course, I ca to see my so-called dear little sister. What’s the matter? Mo Han, just because we have dissolved our engagent, does it an I’m not allowed to see her? Or are you worried that I might do sothing to hurt her?"
Ning Wan didn’t show much emotional change upon Xi Mohan’s arrival, aside from the initial surprise at how quickly he had appeared.
Ning Yan’er had co to visit her about half an hour after Xi Mohan left, but Ning Yan’er had been there for less than ten minutes before Xi Mohan returned, obviously inford by the n in black waiting outside the villa.
At this mont, Ning Wan felt the sensation of being watched... was truly fucking uncomfortable.
It seed as if even if she went to the restroom, how long she stayed would be known by this man, utterly devoid of any privacy.
Xi Mohan’s gaze fell upon Ning Wan, then shifted to Ning Yan’er, and he said coolly, "If you have nothing else, I’ll have soone send you back now."
Upon hearing Xi Mohan’s words that hinted at sending her away, Ning Yan’er imdiately felt anger pounding in her chest, but she replied frostily, "I still have things to talk about with my little sister, I didn’t say I wanted to leave now. Mo Han, are you planning to send away directly? Even if we can’t be husband and wife, we once had a relationship."
Xi Mohan’s expression didn’t change, but he slightly furrowed his brow, clearly not willing to listen to Ning Yan’er’s rambling.
