How dare you threaten him? Ning Jie suddenly had the urge to burst out laughing.
Oh, Ning Chen, you've been blind for so many years, why haven't you learned to behave yourself?
You're disrespecting me now, haven't you ever thought about how I'll treat you when I become the head of the Ning family one day?
If you're sensible, you should get on my good side now.
Ning Jie's eyes turned cold. 'Since you can't see this clearly, then don't blame me for not caring about you in the future. '
"Great! Don't worry about this. Although Ning Yu is young, he has been training under me for a long time. I believe that you will definitely work well together." Ning Jie exerted slight force with his palm, and his knuckles grabbed Ning Chen's shoulder like a pair of pliers.
Ning Chen looked at the empty space in front of him indifferently, as if he could not sense the threat hidden in the strength on his shoulder.
After Ning Jie left, Qin Yu grabbed Ning Chen's hand and said anxiously, "Chen, how can you agree to it? I'm sure they have malicious intents!"
Ning Chen suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes. He held Qin Yu's hand and said gently, "Don't worry, Xiao Yu. I know just what I should do."
Qin Yu looked at Ning Chen in a daze. Ning Chen did not look flustered at all. It was as if no matter what happened, he was fully confident that he was in control of the situation.
Qin Yu knew Ning Chen's ability. She should not have been so worried. However, she did not know if it was because of the connection between lovers. She wanted to protect Ning Chen.
Ning Chen smiled and touched Qin Yu's little face."Look at how anxious you are. How can you not believe in your husband?"
The two of them sat in the car and leaned against each other. The chauffeur did not dare divert his attention and listen to his master's conversation. Instead, he remained hyper-focused on his task.
Qin Yu hugged Ning Chen tightly, and her tone was a little heartbroken."I only found out today how hard my husband has been through these years. I don't want to see you being bullied by those people again. My heart aches so much."
Ning Chen's heart softened. He stretched out his slightly cold fingers and lifted Qin Yu's delicate chin. He lowered his head and gave her a tender kiss, then, he said slowly, "Those people are insignificant to me. Because I don't care about them, they won't hurt me. Only the people I really care about have the right to hurt me."
Just like Qin Yu, she had gradually become his weakness.
Only Qin Yu could affect his mood at all times.
"Xiao Yu won't hurt you, I am an obedient girl." Qin Yu rubbed herself in Ning Chen's arms and found a comfortable position. She laid down comfortably and mumbled.
The next day, Qin Yu received news from Uncle Xu Da and Uncle Chu Nan. They wanted to have dinner with Ning Chen.
After Qin Yu told Ning Chen of the news, Ning Chen chuckled softly. He looked a little helpless — the day had finally arrived.
Then, Ning Chen married Qin Yu in casual fashion. He didn't even meet the in-laws prior. This was because Qin Yu had no parents, and her adoptive parents wanted to sell her to Ning Chen in exchange for benefits.
The meeting with the in-laws, which were avoided at all costs, came, alas!
Xu Da and Chu Nan had always treated Qin Yu as their own daughter, and they had to behold the fact that their daughter wedded a man without their knowledge.
They definitely would not blame Qin Yu. The blame, instead, is on Ning Chen.
Moreover, when Ning Chen married Qin Yu, there was no wedding nor any celebration. It was unforgivable!
Xu Da and Chu Nan had a good scolding waiting for Ning Chen.
In the evening, they tidied up and went to a relatively remote restaurant.
After Ning Chen performed surgery on Xu Da, his injuries were almost healed. When he found out that he had been cured by Ning Chen, the grudge Xu Da had against Ning Chen mostly subsided.
"Hmph, and now you're okay with him? It's just a small surgery. It's just another easy job for him. What's so difficult about it? Have you forgotten how Xiao Yu was quietly married into the Ning family? We didn't even receive an invitation. I don't think Ning Chen is to be trusted!" Chu Nan said with a cold expression.
After a pause, Chu Nan reminded Xu Da, "When they come, put on a good show. Xiao Yu needs to know we always have her back."
"Well then, we'll see how the situation goes and act accordingly."
The two of them chit-chatted for a while before Qin Yu and Ning Chen arrived, one after another.
"Uncle Xu, Uncle Chu, Xiao Yu missed you guys so much!" Qin Yu happily pounced on the men and gave them presents."These are the gifts we prepared for you."
