“Third elder! I didn’t fail you!” Grape looked at the third elder with a smile.

“Thank you, grape and miss lotus seed.” The third elder said gloomily. What the hell is this! She was stabbed half to death by them, and she actually had to thank them. This was really unfair!

“You’re too polite, third elder! Miss often admonishes us that doing good deeds is a must, and we shouldn’t expect anything in return. ” Grape said innocently. However, her words did not seem to be the case in the ears of third elder.

W-what did this mean? He had only expressed his thanks, but the other party had said that he didn’t want anything in return. Did he have to give them benefits after almost killing his people? The third elder was extremely depressed and at a loss. His resentful gaze kept drifting towards the second elder, as if to say,’you’re the one who caused this trouble.’

However, the third elder’s flirtatious looks were completely ignored by the second elder, because his thoughts were all used on rejoicing. He couldn’t help but think to himself,”it seems that compared to that unlucky brawny man, I’m still considered lucky. At least I didn’t suffer so many needles. Hu!” That was close!

“The second elder and the third elder seem to have a good relationship. They’re always sending signals with their eyes.” At this moment, Leng ruoxue sighed again. Her beautiful face was filled with envy.

Her words caused the two half-grown old men, who had different thoughts, to quickly come back to their senses. They subconsciously kept a safe distance so as not to give people a bad association.

Leng ruoxue looked at their anxious expressions and laughed in her heart. However, she maintained a serious expression on her face.”Second elder, third elder, what’s wrong with that person?” Leng ruoxue pointed at one of the servants.

“Uh!” The third elder wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and was at a loss for words. This was because he had no idea what had happened to that person. When he had rushed over, his attention had been focused on the second elder. In addition, Leng ruoxue had also arrived. Hence, he had not noticed that someone had fainted.

“Miss Leng, that man is the servant of our ning family’s most favored fifth miss.” The second elder lifted his eyelids and said in a neutral tone.

“Oh! Is he also weak?” Leng ruoxue was extremely curious. Then, she muttered to herself,””Why are there so many weak people in the ning family? It seems that when there is time, I will have to let my maidservant give you a good diagnosis!” When she said this, her face was full of worry.

However, her words scared everyone half to death. Someone immediately shouted,””Miss Leng! He didn’t faint because he was weak, he was knocked unconscious by second elder because he cut the queue. ”

“Cut the queue? That’s a big problem!” Leng ruoxue turned her gaze towards third elder and the rest. Her gaze caused their hearts to palpitate. Leng ruoxue’s malicious gaze was simply too terrifying, causing them to feel flustered.

“Don’t worry, miss Leng! Such a thing will never happen again. ” The third elder quickly promised.

“What about this time? Are we just going to let him go like this?” Leng ruoxue was very dissatisfied with third elder’s words.

“I won ‘t! He would not let him off! He would be dealt with strictly according to the clan rules! Miss Leng, please rest assured!” The third elder smiled, trying to please him.

“That’s good! Then I’ll wait for the third elder’s decision. ” Leng ruoxue said with a smile.

“Let’s go back!” Leng ruoxue then said to grape and the rest.

Following that, the three of them and the second elder returned to their residence in the forbidden area behind the mountain.

After returning to the forbidden area, Leng ruoxue sat on the stone chair in the courtyard. She stared at second elder with a smile that was not a smile, causing second elder’s hair to stand on end.

Even though second elder really wanted to know why Leng ruoxue kept staring at him, he was afraid that Leng ruoxue would find trouble with him because of the previous incident. Hence, he could only be like a little wife and not make a sound.

“Second elder! You still have a lot of work to do today, don’t you?” Leng ruoxue asked indifferently.

“I’m going to work. ” After hearing Leng ruoxue’s words, the second elder whispered.

Watching the second elder’s back, grape’s face was filled with dissatisfaction,””Miss! Why should we help him deal with that guy? he didn’t even tell us the truth. ”

Grape had a very strong opinion of the second elder. In fact, they were very clear about what happened in the kitchen just now. However, in order to put on a show, they played dumb. They did not expect the second elder to not tell them the truth. Could it be because they were outsiders? As soon as she thought of this possibility, she was filled with anger.

“He’s a prideful person. He naturally doesn’t want us to know about such an embarrassing matter.” Leng ruoxue understood.

“You really just want to keep your face? Wasn’t it to protect the ning family?” Grape was very doubtful.

“Second elder has been in a high position for many years. Besides us and Godfather, who in the ning family dares to make him angry? That old man is a proud and unyielding man, but today he was humiliated in front of the younger generation of the family. Do you think he would be willing to let us know of such an embarrassing matter?” Leng ruoxue laughed.

“That’s true! What a pitiful second elder!” Grape was a little sympathetic.

“Which part of him is pitiful? Wasn’t he just ignored by a junior? Isn’t it normal for the tea to turn cold when the person is gone?” Leng ruoxue said disapprovingly.

“Hehe! Miss’s words make sense!” Grape said in a friendly manner. Then, he continued,”Miss! We’re going to cook. ” After saying that, she pulled lotus seed away.

After lunch, Leng ruoxue was invited by the people sent by ning haolan.

When they arrived at LAN garden, Leng ruoxue was a little surprised to see ning haolan, who had a serious expression on his face.

“What happened?” Leng ruoxue was puzzled.

“Follow me!” Ning haolan said. Then, he brought Leng ruoxue to a room in a side courtyard of LAN garden.

A young man was lying unconscious on the bed in the room. His breathing was weak, his expression Haggard, and his body was covered in wounds. At a glance, one could tell that this man was seriously injured.

“Can he still be saved?” Ning haolan frowned as he looked at Leng ruoxue. Ning Wen’s injuries were too severe for ordinary healing pills to save him.

“Who is he?” Leng ruoxue asked instead of answering.

“My servant, Ning Wen!” Ning haolan sighed.

“He’s Ning Wen? Where did you find him?” Leng ruoxue was very curious.

“In Biancheng.” Ning haolan was a little sad. Ning Wen had been by his side since they were young, but now, he had betrayed him. This made him extremely disappointed.

“My men found him on the streets of Biancheng. According to speculation, he should have run to Biancheng by himself, but we can only know the exact situation after he wakes up.” Ning haolan explained simply.

“Can you save him?” Ning haolan asked.

“Yes, I can!” Leng ruoxue said with certainty. To her, curing Ning Wen was just a matter of taking a pill. However, even if she managed to cure Ning Wen, she did not want to let him off. However, she believed that ning haolan hated Ning Wen even more than she did.
