C22 Promise
Ning Xiaoya didn't love him, so of course she didn't have any expectations.
Faang Haochen saw that she was silent and felt a little awkward. He added, "I, Faang Haochen, have never broken my promise. I will definitely compensate you..."
"How do you want to make it up to me?" Ning Xiaoya asked.
"I want you to find the man you love, buy a house, a car, and a large sum of money, so that you can live happily."
Ning Xiaoya refused, "Forget it. I think it's better to give me money alone. I don't want to get married. I feel that it will be very hard to bear too much."
"That's fine too. As long as you have money, you will have the capital. You will live a happy life no matter how you live. Just like when you are my little wife, you don't have to worry about food and clothing and freedom?"
Ning Xiaoya was amused. She also knew that Faang Haochen said this to comfort her.
She turned around and hugged Faang Haochen. "Thank you. You have never forced me."
Faang Haochen was stunned.
Although he had never forced Ning Xiaoya, it was also because he did not have any desire.
Ning Xiaoya let go of him and went to wash the dishes. As she washed the dishes, she sang an unknown song.
Faang Haochen shouted at her, "Xiaoya, what are you singing? Why have I never heard of it before?"
"It's fine if you haven't heard of it. Later, I will look for something that can be sold in the house. I will sell it tomorrow. This way, when we have money, we can still make chicken soup for you."
It was hard to live a life of poverty.
Although it wasn't too bitter, his life with Faang Haochen was like heaven and earth. In the past, he lived like a moon surrounded by stars, spending money like dirt, but now he lived a life of poverty. There was no entertainment. He only ate and slept every day. It was almost like raising a pig.
And the chicken soup for him to replenish his health was also gradually an extravagant hope.
In the end, Ning Xiaoya saved her portion and gave it all to him alone. He also did not stand on ceremony. After he finished eating, he watched Ning Xiaoya eat vegetables and rice. Although her body was better, her days were even more unbearable. He saw that she got up and went to wash the bowls. He hurriedly shouted, "Put it down first and stay with me for a while."
Ning Xiaoya did not stop her footsteps, "If I accompany you for a while, I will do the same. After I finish my work, I will come over."
After Ning Xiaoya finished her work, she took off the pink apron on her body and her long hair also fell down, draping behind her like seaweed.
She was only focused on walking over but did not pay attention to the road under her feet. She suddenly kicked a flower pot and cried out in pain.
Faang Haochen quickly went over and could not help but curse. There were only the two of them here. Other than the house they lived in, they had no time to care about the outside environment. In addition, the servants of Faang residence had left in a hurry, and it was a mess everywhere.
Ning Xiaoya squatted on the ground and rubbed her swollen ankle. Tears even flowed out.
"Xiaoya, are you alright?"
How could she be fine?
Faang Haochen looked at her small face, which was distorted because of the pain. She had become thinner during this period of time. However, her small face was still red and healthy. Adding her waist-length hair, if it wasn't for her ordinary clothes... She looked like a pure rich girl.
Faang Haochen suddenly asked, "Ning Xiaoya, do you have a phone number?"
Ning Xiaoya shook her head. "No, because I don't have anyone I need to contact."
When she was fleeing last time, she was afraid that Mr Scar would find her location based on the phone, so she threw the phone away.
"Then how do I find you when you go outside?"
"I won't go far, because I have nowhere else to go."
"Don't tell me you really don't have relatives or friends?"
"No?"
"Where are your parents? Wang Yao asked. Where are they? You have been drifting outside. Don't tell me they are not anxious? "
Ning Xiaoya shook her head.
Faang Haochen was a little surprised.
Only now did he realize that he knew too little about Ning Xiaoya. Just from this point, he could tell that she had no family or friends, was alone, had no past to pursue, and no future to pursue.
This kind of woman seemed to have appeared out of nowhere from the ground.
But there was only one request, to be his little wife.
However, there were so many women around him. In order to win his favor and reward, they would make up a lot of stories for him, such as how his parents were not in good health. He had a few brothers and sisters to raise; he had no parents; he had to repay his foster parents' kindness. Such stories were even worse than the stories made up by the contestants in the singing competition. However, Faang Haochen liked the way women begged him. Usually, he would just turn a blind eye and believe it.
But Ning Xiaoya had never been miserable.
If she told her about herself, perhaps the treatment Faang Haochen gave her before would be even better, but she only had one reason. She wanted to be his little wife without having to worry about food and clothing, and was very satisfied with the lowest treatment.
If she really wanted money, the monthly money Faang Haochen gave her was not as good as Xiaoting who served her. She had never asked for it, nor had she seen her take money to buy jewelry, branded bags, or anything like that.
Furthermore, in their current situation, she also gave the chicken drumsticks to him to eat alone.
Could it be that she really did not want anything?
Although she had done the duty of someone else's wife, she had never enjoyed the benefits of a young wife.
Then why did she have to live with him for a long time?
Faang Haochen rubbed her ankle and said lightly, "Xiaoya, I don't treat you as my little wife at all now."
"Then what do you think I am?"
"Rubbish wife!"
She suddenly raised her head.
Rubbish wife?
Why?
Faang Haochen continued, "I've never been married, so I don't have the concept of a young wife. But your attitude towards me right now makes me feel like I'm a real wife. Besides, the women around me have been avoiding me for a long time, except for the match. Who would be willing to care about someone like me?"
Ning Xiaoya's eyes suddenly became gloomy.
But her heart could not help but beat rapidly.
Faang Haochen went over and asked, "Xiaoya, if you are willing, you can tell me your past."
Ning Xiaoya shook her head.
She did not know how to answer and did not want to think about it.
Faang Haochen gave up and asked again, "Ning Xiaoya, have you ever been in love?"
Ning Xiaoya indicated that she did not.
Faang Haochen smiled. "That's true. You are too ordinary. The love of ordinary people is so plain."
Ning Xiaoya thought to herself, Indeed, only by having the ability to topple the world could one have a love that could topple the world.
She honestly said, "I think I might not have that kind of luck."
Since ancient times, emperors and generals fought to the death for the smile of a beauty. There were too many stories. Take the Faang Haochen in front of her as an example. Didn't he also lose everything for the woman he loved?
But how could someone give up everything for the average-looking him?
"Is that so, Xiaoya? I have never forgotten that woman in my heart..."
"What kind of lingering memory is it?"
"She has long been engraved in my heart. Her name also flowed into my bones and blood. Become an indispensable part of my life. As long as she is willing to turn back, I am willing to exchange half of my life, willing to give her everything. No matter how great the price is, I can accept it..."
Ning Xiaoya knew that the gunshot wound had almost taken his life, but he had completely forgotten about it.
Ning Xiaoya did not fully understand Faang Haochen's passionate confession.
It could only be said that he had used too much affection. For Yang Xueman, it was very likely that he would not be able to walk out for the rest of his life.
When Yang Xueman was mentioned, there was a kind of loneliness on his face.
Even after paying so much, Yang Xueman did not return to his side.
But his confession did not stop, "She is really beautiful and her personality is so gentle. Her smile is not even half as bright as the stars in the sky. I have tried to forget her before but no one has entered my heart like her..."
Ning Xiaoya had seen her photo.
Only a woman with such looks could become an international superstar.
Faang Haochen was immersed in the memories of being with Yang Xueman.
Because that was the most beloved thing in his life.
He looked at Ning Xiaoya and sincerely thanked her, "Thank you, Xiaoya. It was all thanks to you that I was able to endure these days."
Ning Xiaoya smiled and accepted it. She was not very touched and did not have any emotional waves. It was as if all of this had nothing to do with her.
Maybe it was because she did not love him.
So when we saw our friends fall in love, when they were in so much pain that they would rather die than live, we would only advise her to leave that person. But who could understand the feelings of the person involved?
Faang Haochen lowered his body and said to Ning Xiaoya, "Come, I'll carry you back. Otherwise, how are you going to leave like this? Xiaoya, have you never been carried before in your entire life? Today, let me carry you on your future husband's back!"
The last shadow of the setting sun pulled their backs very long, like a pair of lovers who had been in love for a long time.
This was the first time Ning Xiaoya leaned on a person's back. She sighed, it turns out that the feeling of being served was really good.
Even though this man had no feelings for him.
Faang Haochen carried her to the room while panting. Faang residence was too big. They had just chosen a long way to go. It had been more than 20 minutes since they returned to the room.
After Faang Haochen put her on the bed, she sat on the ground like a pile of mud, breathing heavily.
Ning Xiaoya saw that he was extremely tired and suddenly felt that it was very real.
She smiled and said, "Faang Haochen, if you really make a comeback in the future, can you carry me again?"
Faang Haochen was stunned. He really did not think of this problem.
"Uh, I think that when the time comes, you will have a man you love, so you don't need me to carry you anymore. Besides, I have money, and you have money too. You can hire someone to carry you."
Ning Xiaoya did not plan to let him go. "But I will cook for you. I will repay you with one meal, not to mention how many meals you have eaten for me! When the time comes, I will definitely let you carry me alone. I will carry you once every meal!"
"Hey, don't tell me you can't walk on your own?"
"Walking is too tiring. Sometimes, I just want others to carry me!"
"Is there a wife who has such harsh requirements?"
"But you didn't raise me. Why don't you just be my waiter?"
"Ning Xiaoya! What do you mean?"
"Because you're freeloading right now, that's why you're the waiter."
"You..."
Ning Xiaoya saw that he was angry and instead, her mood became better and better.
The moonlight shone in from outside the window, making her face look so gentle.
Faang Haochen sighed, "You are so heavy now."
Ning Xiaoya pinched her stomach. She felt that she did not grow much flesh.
"I think you need to lose weight. Otherwise, you will become a ball sooner or later."
