C23 Nightmare

He only had Xia Tian in his heart, she is the one who will guide him out of the shadow of his heart!

"Go and get Shen Heng."

Ning Xia was startled to hear his frosty voice, devoid of any feelings. She raised her head and saw his deep eyes. Those eyes were like a bottomless pool, ice-cold, and impenetrable.

He hit a small stone on the ground with his forehead and had a scratch on it. Blood was dripping from the wound, making him look like a blood-thirsty demon.

Ning Xia couldn't stop a shiver, and did not dare to look him in the eyes again.

At some point, the arm that was holding her down had loosened up. She stood up from the ground smoothly, and anxiously said, "I'll go look for Assistant Shen now."

They went out without their cell phones.

Looking at her figure fleeing in a panic, Pei Yichen's gaze flickered, but immediately returned to the usual coldness.

He sat motionless on the ground, looking a bit dispirited, his despondency making people feel sorry for him.

When Shen Heng arrived, this was the scene he saw. His heart sank and he swiftly stepped forward to help him into the wheelchair.

President Pei, who has always been obsessed with cleanliness, was sitting on the ground regardless. Something bad must have happened.

Shen Heng was a professional assistant who knew not to ask any questions. After he sent Pei Yichen back to his room, he went to the bathroom to prepare a hot bath and then left.

Thinking how Ning Xia came to look for him in a sorry state and with a panicked look, he frowned. Out of nowhere, an outrageous guess popped up.

President Pei couldn't possibly find a remote place to do something to Miss Ning Xia while taking a walk, right?

CEO, aren't you a little too aggressive?

Envisioning the dark, desolate, and beautiful scene, Shen Heng felt that although he grew up with President Pei, he didn't understand this enigmatic man at all!

However, as a good friend, he was truly happy to see that he had someone he liked and who liked him back.

Perhaps Old Master Pei was right about this engagement from the beginning. Ning Xia's mind was simple, and Pei Yichen was overthinking everything. Together, the two of them complement each other. It could be said that it was a match made in heaven.

As expected, Old Master Pei's judgement of people is very accurate.

"Xiao Heng, is young master alright?"

Uncle Wu saw Sheng Heng standing alone at the top of the stairs, lost in thought, and came forward, anxious to ask about Pei Yichen's situation. Young master's temper had always been quite bad and he wondered if this little girl, Ning Xia, could handle it.

"Dad, don't worry, it's okay. The couple must solve their own problems. We're just outsiders, there's not much we can do about it."

Shen Heng said some comforting words and helped Uncle Wu walk into his bedroom.

Hearing that, Uncle Wu agreed reluctantly, "Yeah, they are married after all. No matter what happens, they will solve it. "Tomorrow, ah, I must first advise that young lady, Ning Xia, to show more tolerance."

Shen Heng shook his head, resigned. Ugh, what I said was in vain. Old Dad says one thing and does another!

Ning Xia went back to her room and stood there, staring blankly for a while before her legs gave out and she fell to the ground.

At that moment, all the strength in her body had been completely drained. She recalled everything that happened until then and felt it was terrible.

Her thoughts were scary, and Pei Yichen even more so!

She never wanted to be alone with Pei Yichen and never wanted to be so close to him.

The cold floor brought her consciousness back. Shivering, she stood up and went to take a cold shower. She wanted to sober up completely.

Of course, in this world, getting on top depends on how big are your capabilities and your ability to get what you want. She asked herself if she had the ability to enter Pei Yichen's world.

Ning Xia has always been a carefree but reasonable person. If she could not afford something, she would let it go. Right now, she hasn't gained anything yet, so naturally, she won't be too much at loss.

She calmed herself down, got up from the floor, and went for a shower. After she changed into some loose pajamas and lied down on the soft bed, she felt revived.

She took her phone and swiped through her WeChat. Looking at the photos of her best friend from abroad, she finally smiled.

After wavering for a moment, she logged out of WeChat, opened her mailbox, and logged into the account that she hadn't used for a long time.

As soon as she entered, the news popped up.

Ning Xia's heart inexplicably jumped up. She opened up the email with the same short sentence, "I want to see you."

He was back. He wanted to see her.

Her nose stung and her eyes blurred.

That summer, was her nightmare …

"You're fat and ugly, and on top of that, you cheated on the exam. The previous grades must have been obtained also by cheating!"

"So this is what it means to be ugly on the outside and the inside too. Who would dare to be friends with her in the future?"

"She looks like a pig. Get the hell out of school!"

Angry, she wanted to tear off the school announcement but was stopped by her former classmates. Their words were like knives, stabbing her all over.

"I did not do it! I was wrongly accused! "

She tried to defend herself, but no one believed her!

Gossip is a terrible thing. She went from being a bookworm with a scholarship all the way to a villain who cheated everyone.

"Ning Xia, your bad influence is too great. You've been expelled!"

A notice from the school ruined all her previous efforts.

"Professor, I was wrongly accused. I'm begging you to investigate properly and prove my innocence!"

She pleaded bitterly, with tears streaming down her cheeks, but her professor had an expression of "unyielding abnegation". "If you make a mistake, then you have to bear the consequences. What do you think we're doing here?"

She was in despair, she was breaking down, she was furious.

She gritted her teeth, and for the first time, she was no longer that weak. She stood up and tore the written notice into pieces, "As someone who educates others, you have already come to a conclusion before investigating the truth. Do you know that you have ruined the life of a student? " For such a school, that does not distinguish right from wrong, I have nothing but disdain!"

She threw the bits of paper in the Dean's face, then turned around and left resolutely!

Even if her face was covered in tears, even if a lot of people were frothing at the mouth behind her back, she didn't care anymore.

She once thought that, as the adopted daughter of the Ning Family, she should endure the eldest daughter's bad temper at any time, and that she should be grateful to them for giving her a chance to learn. So she studied hard, trying to get her adoptive parents to like her and to change her fate through knowledge.

But she was wrong. No matter how good her grades were, the only princess was Ning Jing. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't withstand the slander of someone who was supposed to help her!

Therefore, she disdained living in such a lowly manner!
