C79 At the Cocktail Party
Yin Lan looked at the walls that were covered by the blood red sun. The color of the walls was still flowing, and the room was filled with light from the corner of her eye. Ning Ou's face was immersed in the faint and beautiful color, and there was a hint of gentleness and coldness in it.
"Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable?" Ning Ou looked at Yin Lan, who was staring at him but did not say a word. He reached out his hand and caressed her face, which had been greatly reduced after two days of not seeing her for only two days.
Ning Ou's hands were long and well-proportioned. The temperature of his fingers was slightly cool and thin when he touched them. After that, he felt soft and comfortable. With his movements, Yin Lan felt that her weak body was slowly recovering its vitality. It was very magical.
"How is my injury?" The injury on her leg was almost completely gone, but the injury on her back was unable to heal for a long time. She was very puzzled.
Ning Ou's thumb was still on her brow. Thinking about the injury on her back, he could not help but feel pity for her. "How did you do it?"
Yin Lan felt the attachment to her brow bone and smiled lightly. "You don't know who you are. You were tricked by the other party."
Her smile was gentle and carried a trace of drifting. It made Ning Ou frown. "Don't smile like this, especially in front of me."
Yin Lan was slightly surprised when she heard that. Then, she said with a smile, "Ning Ou, do you have anyone who believes in you and can risk their lives for you?"
Ning Ou stared at her longing in his eyes. Traces of hatred spread from the bottom of his heart, causing his night like eyes to instantly turn gloomy.
"Do you know?"
Yin Lan fell into her own emotions and did not answer. She only replied softly.
"Tianqing is dead," she said.
Suddenly, her words changed drastically. Caught off guard, they rang in Yin Lan's ears and interrupted her memories. She was so shocked that she looked straight at Ning Ou again.
"What is going on?"
Ning Ou looked at the shock in Yin Lan's eyes and did not seem to be faking it. He casually replied, "I was killed."
Yin Lan was shocked again. "Who dares?"
Although Zhao Tianqing did not interact much with her, he was still considered an acquaintance that he had met a few times. In addition, he was very close to Ning Ou and Zhang Xunmo. How could anyone dare to oppose him and kill him?
However, when his thoughtful gaze met Ning Ou's eyes that were as dense as ink, his heart trembled. A bad premonition spread in his heart.
"Who do you think can be so unbridled and even do whatever you want in Nanxing?"
The fierce questioning contained waves of anger and hatred, yet it was as light as the wind, causing Yin Lan to be slightly shocked.
Because on the night she was kidnapped by Faang Yuanxi's men, there was also the sound of the wind and the sound of the crane, and the fire of the spear continued. Could it be that Ning Ou and Master Jing were confronting each other at that time?
"Yin Lan." Ning Ou leaned over gently. His aura and gaze went from top to bottom. They interweaved into a net and entangled into a lock. It confined her body and mind to this prison.
"If Hua Jingsheng and I became enemies, who would you help?" he asked.
Looking at each other, Yin Lan felt her breathing suddenly become heavy, and even her heart beat somewhat out of balance.
Ning Ou becoming enemies with Hua Jingsheng was something she had expected a long time ago. She was even prepared to become enemies with Ning Ou. However, this expectation and this preparation turned into hesitation when she looked into Ning Ou's eyes.
Why would she hesitate?
Ning Ou locked her up and waited for her decision.
Yin Lan moved and moved away from him. She stepped off the bed.
Ning Ou's body remained the same, but the gentleness in his eyes was shattered by Yin Lan's actions.
"Ning Ou, if this day comes..." Yin Lan looked at him calmly, "Then, you and I will also be enemies."
"Haha..."
Ning Ou's soft and ethereal laughter was heard as soon as he finished his sentence.
"Very good! This answer is really good!"
Yin Lan heard him laugh and drink well. Suddenly his heart skipped a beat.
She wanted to say more but saw him raise one leg and sit on the wheelchair. He walked towards the door and his voice was as cold as ice.
"Hua Jingsheng will attend the banquet tonight. I will personally escort you to his side. You can prepare yourself. Half an hour later, I will send someone to pick you up."
After saying that, he walked out of the room.
The moment the door was closed, Yin Lan could not help but turn her head. She looked at Ning Ou, who was clad in dark light and walking in the opposite direction. Suddenly, she saw that the two of them had become enemies.
Her gaze returned to the fading light and the sky that was like a painting. She felt an indescribable emotion flowing in her heart, which made her feel unfamiliar and uneasy.
On the other side of the door, Ning Ou's silhouette was stopped a meter away. Looking at the thin door, he took a deep breath. This was the last indulgence he had for her.
He could tolerate her deception and exploitation, but he could not tolerate her lack of love and hostility.
From now on, he would not feel any pity for her.
Tonight was the beginning of his and Hua Jingsheng's individual battles.
The vast night sky was filled with stars, and the stars were constantly flickering. Under the enormous night sky, an ancient manor stood quietly in the darkness. In front of the house was a piece of green pine that had been carefully cut by hand. It isolated the noise and filtered the dust, making the entire manor seem noble and extraordinary.
The inner court was a place that was lit with incense and lights, and the entire courtyard was bright and dark as flowing lights intersected with each other, causing it to be exceptionally gorgeous.
Inside was a spacious and very charming hall. The vintage chandelier rested on the ceiling and quietly looked at the well-dressed, well-dressed, and noble ladies below. They each held their cups and chatted with each other.
A golden carriage parked in front of the mansion's entrance. Its beauty and arrogance were almost out of place with the mansion's beauty and tranquility. As a result, the people guarding the entrance were extremely shocked by its stop.
"Get out of the car."
Ning Ou, who did not pay attention to the other party's astonishment, ignored the surrounding gazes. He looked indifferently at Yin Lan, who had opened the door but did not get off the car for a long time.
Today, she was wearing the dress that he had prepared for her. One word on her shoulder and a skirt that was very graceful. It covered her injuries and outlined her beauty. It was very suitable.
However, her beauty did not bloom for him.
Yin Lan looked around and then looked at the clothes on her body. She frowned slightly, "Why did you bring me here?"
"Didn't you want to return to his side? He is here." Ning Ou got out of the car. He was not sitting in a wheelchair today. Instead, he was leaning on a cane with deep engravings.
It was clearly an old man's thing, but in his hand, it gave off an imposing aura.
Listening to his determined and proud tone, Yin Lan looked at him blankly. She did not know if it was because she was not used to him like this, or because she was surprised by Ning Ou on the other side.
She walked down and stood beside Ning Ou as if she was used to it.
However, Ning Ou did not seem to want to cross paths with her. He walked away with his cane.
Yin Lan frowned. Could it be that they were going to have a real competition from tonight onwards?
Just as she was thinking, she heard the sound of brakes behind her. She turned around and saw a Rolls-Royce parked steadily. The driver was either someone else or Seiffer with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was very eye-catching.
Seiffer had long seen Yin Lan standing side by side with Ning Ou. When he saw her gaze, he raised his eyebrows as if he was watching a show and watched Yin Lan's decision.
Wu Sheng sat in the passenger seat. When he saw Yin Lan in a formal dress, he did not dare to look back to see the expression of the person behind her. However, his heavy gaze had hinted Yin Lan to make a serious decision.1
Yin Lan looked at the two people with different expressions. From their expressions, she knew that Hua Jingsheng, who was sitting in the back seat, was already angry. Her heart could not help but tighten. She turned her body slightly to Hua Jingsheng.
Ning Ou, who had been watching her from the corner of his eye, saw her subtle movements. The corner of his mouth lifted into a mocking arc. Then, he clenched his hand and pulled Yin Lan's hand, which was about to approach Hua Jingsheng.
Yin Lan was stopped and turned back to look at him suspiciously. It was not him who asked her to look for Master Jing.
However, Ning Ou did not say anything. Instead, he pulled her into his arms with a gentle pull of his finger.
At this moment, the dark blue eyes that had been staring at the two of them in the darkness had turned icy-blue.
At the same time, another expensive sports car three meters away entered the bend and was about to stop.
Yin Lan was surrounded by Ning Ou's aura. Her heart was about to stop beating and her breathing was in disorder. For a moment, she froze on the spot.
However, Ning Ou did not stop. He hugged Yin Lan tightly and made her stick close to him. He lowered his head and kissed her lips. Although it was just a light touch, it made Yin Lan completely stunned on the spot.
Her brain suddenly swelled and then exploded. After that, she forgot everything around her.
It was just a momentary touch, but it made her unable to calm down for a long time.
Their actions attracted the attention of the people around them, and also caused the people inside to fluctuate. Everyone looked at them in surprise and curiosity.
Her astonishment. Her obedience stunned Ning Ou. He thought she would resist, but he didn't expect her to let him kill her.
That beautiful touch was instantly ignited. He could not help but approach Yin Lan again. He looked at her cherry red lips and his gaze was misty.
Seeing the fearless scene in front of them, Wu Sheng and Seiffer simultaneously felt the temperature in the car drop, as well as the pair of sharp eyes behind them. They each looked at each other. Everything was self-evident.
When the sports car that was looking for a place to stop saw the scene in front of them, the front of the car turned and forcefully stopped beside Ning Ou's car. Without a word, he kicked open the door and strode forward.
"Let go of her!" His hand rudely stopped Ning Ou, who was approaching Yin Lan again, and took her away from the range of his hand.
Yin Lan suddenly woke up from the pain. She opened her eyes and looked at the man in front of her. He had clean facial features, sharp forehead, and amber brown eyes. Was this Faang Yuanxi?
Ning Ou was pushed away by Faang Yuanxi and sneered. He looked at him playfully and provocatively, "What? Young Master Fang? Do you still have the time to care about these things?"
"You are not allowed to touch her!" Faang Yuanxi looked at Ning Ou with hatred and held Yin Lan's hand tightly.
God knows how much he wanted to kill this man when he saw that scene.
Yin Lan heard the angry conversation and regained her consciousness. After recognizing the person who grabbed her was Faang Yuanxi, she shook her hand away from Faang Yuanxi's hand.
