Translator: 549690339
After entering the cell, the guards immediately brought Leng ruoxue and the others to the cell where grape was kept.
Leng ruoxue focused her eyes and saw grape sitting leisurely on the stone bed in the cell. There was not a single trace of fear on his beautiful face. Seeing this, she couldn’t help but burst out laughing and said helplessly,””Wretched girl, you’re so relaxed!”
“Miss!” Grape’s face was full of surprise. He didn’t think that miss would come to save her so quickly, hehe!
“Open the cell!” Leng ruoxue gave grape a consoling look and said to the guards in the prison.
“This, this ...” The guard stammered, standing still and not daring to move.
“What’s wrong? Do you need me to invite your family head here before you can take her away?” Leng ruoxue replied indifferently. She then looked at ning haolan, her eyes clearly saying,’you’re not strong enough as a young master! The guards didn’t even give you face. ”
Ning haolan smiled wryly, then ordered the guard,””Didn’t you hear what miss Leng said? Hurry up and open the cell door!”
“Young master! “It was the ninth miss who ordered her to be locked in here. I ... I ...” The guard was in a difficult position. He couldn’t afford to offend the young master, but he couldn’t afford to offend the ninth miss even more. This didn’t mean that the ninth miss ‘status in the ning family was higher than the young master’ s, but that the ninth miss was too vicious. If she knew that he had let go of the criminal who had offended the ninth miss, the ninth miss would not let him go.
“You’re afraid of the ninth young mistress, but aren’t you afraid of the young master?” Cheng Xuan narrowed his eyes and smiled.
“Afraid! Even I’m afraid! “Woo ...” The guard said with an aggrieved expression.
“Hurry up and open the cell. Otherwise, if miss Leng comes to find your family’s old ancestor, you won’t even know how you died.” Cheng Xuan threatened.
“Yes ...” The guard wanted to cry but had no tears. Why was it that the people he had met today were all more difficult to deal with than the other, and each had a stronger background than the other!
The Guard’s hands trembled and his face was ashen. He took out the key and opened the cell door with trembling hands. Seeing this, grape swaggered out from inside.
“Miss!” Grape called out softly.
Leng ruoxue looked grape up and down. After confirming that she wasn’t injured, she finally felt at ease.
“What’s going on?” Leng ruoxue asked indifferently.
“Miss! Don’t even mention it, I’m really unlucky to have met a crazy woman while walking. ” Grape’s face was gloomy as he explained,””I was walking fine, but I met a woman on the way. That woman said that I was disrespectful to her and bumped into her. Her maidservant wanted to attack me, but I beat her down. After that, I was captured by the guards she called and put in prison.”
“That woman is the ninth young lady of the ning family?” Leng ruoxue raised her brows and asked with a smile that was not a smile.
“Mm! That woman was even more annoying than Ning Xi ‘er. At least in front of outsiders, Ning Xi’ er would still pretend to be obedient. However, that woman was cruel and cold-blooded. Her maidservant couldn’t beat me, so she abandoned her. She even said that she wouldn’t let me go. This is really an unexpected disaster!” Grape said gloomily.
“It seems that she hasn’t had the time to attack you yet.” Cheng Xuan teased with a smirk.
“Mm! That woman seemed to have something urgent to attend to, so I’m safe for now. ” Grape nodded.
Hearing grape’s words, Leng ruoxue’s beautiful eyes turned to ning haolan. She asked with a faint smile,””Who is the ninth young lady of the ning family? How come I’ve never heard of it?”
“The ninth young mistress ‘name is Ning Shan’ er. In recent years, she’s been out training and rarely comes back to the ning family. However, she’s very talented, so she’s very doted on by the ning family. She almost became Cheng Xuan’s fiancée.” Ning haolan explained, then pulled out another gossip.
“Dammit! Just say what you want to say to her, why drag me into this?” Cheng Xuan gritted his teeth, his face full of displeasure.
“I’m just telling the truth!” Ning haolan replied innocently. Then, as if he suddenly recalled something, he said,””Argh! She didn’t come back because she knew you were in the ning family, right?”
“Impossible! Don’t spout nonsense!” Cheng Xuan’s face drained of all color as cold sweat began to drip down his forehead. ‘Wu...I don’t want to see that lunatic. Besides, if haolan didn’t mention it, I’d have almost forgotten that woman had once pursued me like a madman.’ He glared at ning haolan with hatred at the thought.
“Hahaha! Don’t be afraid, she’s not as strong as you, so she can’t use force on you. ” Ning haolan said with a smirk.
“Dammit! You’re still talking?” Cheng Xuan was burning with anger.
“Alright! I’m not going to joke with you anymore. ” It’s good that ning haolan is happy.
“Great aunt! That woman is very scary and possessive, so if you see her, it’s best to stay as far away as possible. It’s even better if you don’t see her face, otherwise, you may not be able to keep your beautiful little face. ” Cheng Xuan said with a worried expression.
“What’s the meaning of this?” Leng ruoxue squinted her eyes and asked in confusion.
“That woman is overbearing, selfish, vicious, and cruel. She can’t stand anyone being stronger than her. She also claims to be the most beautiful woman in the world. Tell me, if such an unreasonable woman sees you, will she let you go?” Cheng Xuan asked.
“Xuan’s right. Ning Shan ‘er is indeed a flamboyant, overbearing, and vicious woman. Even Ning Xi’ er is submissive in front of her. Other than aunt Yan, she should be the highest-ranking young lady in the ning family. It’s only when she’s not in the ning family that Ning Xi ‘er can flaunt her power. Also, she’s a legitimate child.” Ning haolan added.
“So that’s how it is. However, it’s a little too late for you to ask me to stay away from her now, because even if I don’t provoke her, she will still come to find trouble with me. ” Leng ruoxue understood. She could already foresee how furious this pampered first wife would be when she found out about someone like her. If that woman was really like what Cheng Xuan and ning haolan had said, she would definitely go crazy.
“Miss! I will protect you!” Grape patted his chest and promised.
“Silly girl, I’ll be at ease if you can protect yourself.” Leng ruoxue chuckled.
“Great aunt! I’ll protect you too, but now’s not the time to talk about this. Let’s get out of this cell quickly! Otherwise, if that poison Scorpion comes, no one will be able to leave easily. ” Cheng Xuan said with a face full of fear.
“En!” Leng ruoxue nodded.
Everyone left the cell and returned to their respective residences.
Cheng Xuan returned to LAN garden with ning haolan in fear. Just as he was about to pack his things and leave, ning haolan pulled him back.
“What’s wrong? Are you trying to sneak away?” Ning haolan said with a smirk.
“If I don’t cower now, when will I? I can’t afford to offend that woman, so I’ll just hide, alright?” Cheng Xuan said unhappily.
“You’re not going to protect Leng ruoxue anymore?” Ning haolan raised an eyebrow.
“Protect! Why don’t I escape with her? That crazy woman definitely won’t let the three of them go. If there’s really a conflict, then your ning family will also be in trouble. It’s better for me to leave. ” The more Cheng Xuan spoke, the more he felt that his words made sense.
