C20 Decline

Seeing that Xie Ningqian and An ZIhao had left, Xiao Rui stood up as if he was waiting for a good show: "Third Royal Brother, the show on the stage is about to end. Seventh Brother had no interest in the show, so he left first."

After speaking, he didn't wait for Xiao Jin Ming's reply and headed outside.

After waiting for Xiao Rui Yi to leave, Xiao Jin immediately swept all the teacups on the table to the ground and said: "What a good Xiao Rui, you actually dare to make a joke out of me."

When Xie Leyao and Qin Lanxin saw this, they both jumped in fright. However, they did not dare to step forward to persuade her; instead, they could only stay where they were in silence.

Qingge saw that Xie Ningqian had already come out, but there were no signs of a doctor. She looked at Xie Ningqian and asked worriedly, "Miss, are you really alright? My clothes are soaked with blood. "

"Qingge, I'm really fine. It's just a superficial wound. Don't worry!" Although it was only a slight superficial wound, it was still too much pain for the frail Xie Ningqian.

As soon as Xie Ningqian finished speaking, An Zihao rushed to her side and asked in concern, "Ningqian, I'll take you to the clinic!"

"Alright!" Xie Ningqian gave a rare reply of obedience. "Many thanks to Young Master An."

After that, the three of them headed to the nearest infirmary, not waiting for Xiao Rui Yi to arrive. Soon, he found a clinic. Half an incense's time later, Xie Ningqian came out with Qingge under the care and treatment of the medicine woman.

After exiting the infirmary, Xie Ningqian turned to An Zihao and politely said, "Thank you so much for today, Young Master An. Let's part ways here!" Qingge and I will be returning to the Duke of Guo's estate now. "

Seeing that Xie Ningqian's face had lost all color, An ZIhao worriedly asked, "Ningqian, what are you talking about? Let me send you back to your residence! "

Just as Xie Ningqian was about to refuse, he heard Xiao Rui's commanding voice, "Second Miss Xie, have the crown prince send you back to your residence!"

After that, Xiao Rui Yi appeared in front of An Zihao, Xie Ningqian and Qingge. It was as if he had been following them the entire time, waiting for them to come out of the infirmary.

"Brother Rui Yi, why did you only just arrive?" An Zihao said calmly, as if he wasn't waiting for Xiao Rui to return the favor for the sake of a beauty.

To Xiao Rui Yi, An Zizhao addressed him affectionately as "Brother Rui Yi," but to Xiao Jinming, An Zizhao politely addressed him as "Prince." Xie Ningqian was getting more and more confused with Xiao Rui. To think that the "weird" Xiao Rui Yi was actually able to call An Zizhao, with his gentle and considerate personality, a brother.

"This duke still has things to do, so I won't send Second Young Miss Xie back to the estate." With that, he immediately turned around and left, soon disappearing into the crowd.

No one could tell that there was a hint of a smile on Xiao Rui's lips. Xie Ningqian was getting more and more interesting, to actually say such words to the thousands of girls in the capital in front of so many people. He thought to himself, If such an interesting thing were to be spread to the palace and made known to his father, who always doted on Xiao Jinming, it would be even more interesting!

"Let's go!" "Ning Qianqian." An Ziteng's voice was still filled with concern.

"En!" Xie Ningqian did not understand why Xiao Rui was doing this, but now, she really could not stay outside any longer. After all, it was only an hour's time to pay respects to her grandmother, and her grandmother had treated her so well, so she had to hurry back to her house and change clothes.

An Zihao asked Xie Ningqian with a worried look on his face as he walked, "Ningqian, are you serious about what you said to Prince Xian today?" With that, he looked at Xie Ningqian with a serious expression. In his heart, he was extremely worried about Xie Ningqian's two answers.

No matter how difficult it was, he, An ZIhao, would do his best to help her. However, if she wasn't serious about it, and was purely angry at Xiao Jinming, then that meant that Xie Ningqian still liked Xiao Jinming, and he, An ZIhao, would do his best to help them get back together!

Even though he had his own rational thoughts about the two situations that Xie Ningqian might have answered, he still hoped that Xie Ningqian would answer the first one.

Seeing how An ZIhao was staring at her with a serious expression, Xie Ning Qian knew that if she replied seriously, he would definitely continue to adore her. If she wasn't serious, then that would be a violation of her heart. What a dilemma!

Based on his two lifetimes of experience, Xiao Jinming definitely wasn't as simple as he seemed. An Zizhao was such a good person; he couldn't possibly implicate him.

"Young Master An, the words Ning Qianqian said today are all true." After Xie Ningqian finished speaking, she paused for a moment before continuing, "If there's anything that Young Master An misunderstood, then I hope that Young Master An will forgive me."

When An ZIhao heard this, he was stunned. Xie Ningqian was tactfully rejecting his pursuit! A moment of heartbreak.

Just then, the three of them arrived at the gates of the Duke of Guo's estate.

Xie Ningqian stood in front of the door and bowed towards An ZIhao. She said in a grateful tone, "Thank you, Young Master An, for sending Ning Qian back. I'm in a hurry to pay my respects to Grandmother. Please be careful along the way, Young Master An."

Seeing this, An Zi Hao nodded silently. Although he was hurt, he still said with concern: "Quickly go in! Take care of your wounds. Bye! " Although she had a lot of things she wanted to say to Xie Ningqian, she could only leave.

After An ZIhao left, Xie Ningqian followed him into the manor. When she reached her own courtyard and saw that there was no one around, she asked softly, "What does young lady think of this Prince An?" "How are you treating people?"

"Gentle and considerate, kind and friendly. What's wrong?" Xie Ningqian replied instinctively, completely unable to perceive the meaning behind Qingge's words.

"Then why did young miss …" As Qing Ge spoke to here, he stealthily glanced at Xie Ningqian. Seeing that Xie Ningqian didn't have any sort of special expression on his face, he continued, "Why did he reject Heir An!? When this servant saw that Heir An had left, I was rather sad! "

"Qingge, there are some things that you don't understand. It's impossible for me to have a good ending with Heir An." How could she not know An ZIhao's character and his feelings for her? But she, Xie Ningqian, was reborn; she did not know when the heavens would make her disappear again!

Moreover, she still remembered everything that happened between Murong Yuan and her last life and didn't really believe in a man's loyalty anymore. Even if the other party was the kind An Ziehao, she still wouldn't easily accept it. Her purpose in rebirth was to seek revenge, not only for herself, but also for her newborn child.

Thinking of her child, the hatred in Xie Ningqian's heart only increased.
