Chapter 133
Qiao Nian looked straight ahead, "There's nothing to be curious about. I just decided on him. If General Xiao really wants to find out the reason, then it's probably because I don't know where the love came from, and I'm deeply in love with him!"
Hearing this, Xiao Heng's pressure dropped.
Deeply in love?
He felt that Qiao Nian had never been deeply in love with him!
If she was someone who would be deeply in love, she wouldn't have suddenly fallen in love with Jing Yan.
At that moment, Xiao Heng just smiled coldly, "Xiao thinks that Miss Qiao should listen to your father and brother."
Qiao Nian frowned, "General Xiao, don't worry about this. If General Xiao is really free, then marry Lin Yuan back as soon as possible, so as to avoid killing a few lives for no reason next time."
Hearing this, Xiao Heng's face was already very gloomy.
A cold voice said, "Although Yuan'er was wrong today, those beggars may not be innocent either."
Compared to the fact that Lin Yuan spent money to let the beggars destroy her innocence, Xiao Heng was more inclined to believe that those beggars suddenly had evil intentions.
After all, even if the little beggar went to find Lin Ye, Lin Yuan could not calculate when Lin Ye would arrive.
She has always been timid and would never take such a big risk.
Qiao Nian did not expect that Xiao Heng would still speak for Lin Yuan without hesitation after all. He really loves Lin Yuan!
But why did he, who loves Lin Yuan so much, come to provoke her again?
She smiled coldly, "I only know that if Lin Yuan hadn't given them the silver, they wouldn't have died."
Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows slightly, "If that's the case, if Miss Qiao hadn't said those words, Yuan'er wouldn't have run away, and those beggars wouldn't have died."
Qiao Nian couldn't help laughing, "Then the culprit is you, General Xiao!"
Isn't the source of all this Xiao Heng's madness due to the alcohol?
Xiao Heng frowned and said nothing.
Only his eyes were still staring at Qiao Nian.
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows slightly, and the smile on her face gradually faded.
She looked at Xiao Heng with a serious look, "General Xiao should know better than me what kind of person Jing Yan is. If you really want to do good for me, you shouldn't stop me."
After that, she was about to walk into the mansion.
But when she passed by Xiao Heng, he grabbed her wrist.
"Jing Yan still has parents and a sister at home. Lord Lin has a hundred ways to force him to leave you."
Xiao Heng wanted to tell him that he was stopping her for her own good!
Qiao Nian's little hand rested on the back of Xiao Heng's hand, and then pushed him away little by little.
"Since Jing Yan and I have decided to be together, we expect that the road ahead will be extremely bumpy. But we will stand by each other's side, and no matter what happens, we will face it together."
After that, she continued to walk into the mansion.
Xiao Heng's voice sounded again, revealing a bit of sarcasm, "Are you so sure that he will always stand by your side?"
Qiao Nian paused, but never looked back.
"I don't know." Her voice was slow and sounded a bit depressed.
Because she had been betrayed by her loved ones, she couldn't believe that there would really be someone in this world who would always stand by her side.
But...
"But as long as he stays with me for one day, I will never abandon him." After saying that, she strode into the mansion, and no sound came from behind.
Qiao Nian returned to Fanghe Garden.
Ningshuang came up to her as soon as she saw her, "Miss! Are you okay?"
Her eyes looked at Qiao Nian's whole body, and then she exclaimed, "Miss, you are injured!"
Qiao Nian was stunned, "No!"
Lin Ye didn't fight with her again, how could she be injured?
But Ningshuang held up her left hand, and there was a blood stain on the sleeve of her left hand.
"Why is there so much blood?" Ningshuang was worried, "Whose blood is it?"
Looking at the large piece of blood on her sleeve, Qiao Nian felt a sour and twitching inexplicably in her heart, and it hurt badly.
"Xiao Heng's."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook her head slightly.
It was the first time she found that Xiao Heng was so childish.
He was hiding well outside Jing Yan's house, and even in Lin Yuan's house, he deliberately put his hands behind his back, so that no one would notice that he was injured.
But just now, he deliberately rolled up his sleeves in front of her and left blood on her clothes, fearing that she would not notice that he was injured.
He must have never thought that she had already noticed it.
After all, in the past, whenever he was injured, she would feel extremely distressed and cry more than if she was injured.
When she came out of Jing Yan's house before, she had already found the broken medicine bottle and blood on the ground.
What's more, he was wearing a light-colored robe today, and the bright red blood stains on his sleeves were particularly conspicuous. How could she not see it?
But, the one who felt sorry for Xiao Heng was Lin Nian.
Lin Nian, he had died a long time ago.
After taking a deep breath, Qiao Nian walked into the house, found a clean dress to change, and threw the bloodstained dress to Ning Shuang, "Throw it away."
Hearing this, Ning Shuang was shocked, "Throw it away? Miss, this blood stain is easy to wash."
Such a good dress, just throw it away?
Unexpectedly, Qiao Nian curled her lips and smiled, her tone was full of disdain.
"Throw away dirty things that can't be washed clean!"
She would not take dirty things anymore.
The next day,
Qiao Nian went to pay respects to the old lady early in the morning.
The old lady looked in good spirits today. Qiao Nian went up to her and bowed to her with a smile on her face.
Seeing Qiao Nian so happy, the old lady was also happy and couldn't help asking, "How was the blind date party your brother arranged for you yesterday? Did you find someone you like?"
Qiao Nian's face showed a rare shyness, "My granddaughter didn't like any of the people at the blind date party, but she liked someone else."
"Someone else?" The old lady was surprised, "Which kid is so lucky to be liked by my Nian Nian."
Qiao Nian's smile did not diminish, but he was also somewhat worried.
She thought for a moment, then said, "He is a very responsible man, with great martial arts skills. Even seven or eight people can't beat him! He will protect his granddaughter, and won't tolerate anyone saying anything bad about her. He will even protect her with his life."
Hearing this, the old lady's eyes were already a little surprised, and a figure popped up in her mind, "Are you talking about Xiao Heng?"
"..."
Qiao Nian never thought that her description would make the old lady think of Xiao Heng.
I just think that Xiao Heng is not as good as any other person except for his martial arts skills, right?
But the old lady didn't recognize Jing Yan, so it was normal that she didn't think of Jing Yan.
She said, "It's not General Xiao, it's the deputy general under the general, named Jing Yan. Grandmother may have seen him."
Jing Yan often follows Xiao Heng, and the old lady should have seen him.
So, the old lady thought for a while, and finally a slightly blurry figure emerged in her mind, "Oh, it's that deputy general Jing!"
The tone seemed a little disappointed.
Qiao Nian couldn't help but feel uneasy, thinking about saying something good about Jing Yan.
Unexpectedly, the old lady continued to speak, "Grandma has seen him, he is a good child worthy of entrusting your life to."
Qiao Nian was stunned, "Grandma agreed?"
"Nian Nian likes him, why doesn't Grandma agree?"
"I, I thought Grandma would dislike his low status..."
"But, my Nian Nian likes him!" The old lady smiled gently, "You said, he can't stand others saying a word against you, he will protect you, that's enough. Grandma, as long as Nian Nian is happy, nothing else matters. But... I'm afraid it's hard to say about your parents, right?"
Grandma's words made Qiao Nian feel extremely warm in her heart.
She leaned her head on her grandmother's shoulder, smiling, "Nian Nian just needs Grandma's approval."
Other things don't matter.
