The Blind Lover

Chapter 42: Probing

Guan Yue coughed as he pointed at Qin Yu and asked Ning Chen, “What’s with her?”

Qin Yu patted Ning Chen’s back and handed him a tissue. “Brother, brother, are you alright? Are you alright?”

Ning Chen received the tissue from Qin Yu and wiped it. She said calmly, “I think it’s just not your day.”

Guan Yue could not take it anymore. “Aren’t you being too biased? She said that about me, and you’re not going to teach her a lesson?”

Ning Chen said, “She’s not wrong.”

Guan Yue said, “Ning Chen, you’re too much! It’s not right for you to forget your bros after getting married! Let me tell you, I have helpers now. My five—”

Cough!

Ning Chen coughed heavily and interrupted Guan Yue.

“Xiao Yu, why does your sister want to marry Guan Yue?” Ning Chen asked Qin Yu, who was sitting beside him.

Qin Yu blinked her big eyes at Guan Yue and said, “My sister said he has money. As a high-ranking official, he can help my father earn money, lots of money!”

Guan Yue looked at Qin Yu with his eyes wide open. “Ning Chen, why is she like this?”

Ning Chen raised her eyebrows. “Like what?”

She was an idiot!

“Shi Yong actually dares to mess with you?! Is he crazy? Does he not want to live anymore?” Guan Yue said angrily.

Ning Chen said slowly, “He’s not crazy. His plan is to wed Xiao Yu to me. If I break off the engagement, I’m afraid it would have caused a storm in the city by now. He’s certain that I won’t disregard the reputation of the Ning family.”

“So what? Grandfather won’t care!” Guan Yue didn’t think much of it.

Ning Chen’s face turned to Qin Yu and sighed lightly. “I can’t ignore this girl either. If I send this girl back to Shi Yong, I’m afraid she won’t be able to survive.”

Ning Chen’s unfocused but affectionate eyes warmed his heart. It turned out that Ning Chen was only concerned about her life and hadn’t gone to the Shi family to cause trouble. He had even brought her to the Shi family to show off when they returned three days ago, all for her!

“They… didn’t treat her well? Isn’t she the miss of the Shi family? No, I heard that Miss Shi is very sensible and virtuous. Even my mother has asked about her.” Guan Yue looked at Qin Yu, who was eating snacks without any distractions. His eyes were still filled with shock.

“Xiao Yu is the adopted daughter of the Shi family. The Miss Shi you’ve mentioned is the one who wants to marry you…” Ning Chen said with a smile.

Guan Yue rolled his eyes. “The one who is blind?”

Ning Chen laughed softly. “A child speaks without fear. Don’t take it to heart.”

“Get lost!” Guan Yue was displeased.

“Think about it. If you marry Miss Shi, what will happen to Shi Yong?” Ning Chen asked.

Guan Yue frowned. “That’s pretty bold! Then he’ll be the most powerful father-in-law in M City.”

Ning Chen nodded. “So, even if you really like that Miss Shi in the future, you must not marry her. Otherwise, you’ll be digging your own grave.”

Guan Yue came over and asked, “Is that Miss Shi pretty? Is she prettier than Xiao Yu?”

Ning Chen seemed to be staring at him and asked, “Are you asking a blind man this question?”

“Tsk!” Guan Yue glared at Ning Chen and looked at Qin Yu.

“Xiao Yu? is your sister pretty?”

Qin Yu did not even raise her head. “She’s pretty! My mother said that my sister is the most beautiful person in the world.”

“Tsk!” Guan Yue was really helpless.

“Ning Chen, are you going to keep her forever?” Guan Yue looked at Qin Yu who was eating like a little hamster and asked.

Ning Chen nodded.

Guan Yue’s eyes widened. “Ning Chen, are you kidding me? She… she can’t do that either?”

Ning Chen smiled. “Why not?”

“You’re crazy. You’re really crazy,” Guan Yue muttered.

Qin Yu’s big eyes looked between the two of them, as if she did not understand what they were talking about.

Ning Chen found it funny. This girl was really good at acting. It must have been hard on her to perfect her acting skills.

In fact, if it were not for the fragrance, she would have fooled him too. He even felt full of sympathy for her.

“I like her. If I marry her, it will be for the rest of my life!” Ning Chen said calmly.

Qin Yu choked on a mouthful of snacks. She quickly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. She must be hearing things.

Ning Chen pursed her lips and smiled. She said to Guan Yue, “Wait for me in the study. I will study the contract you sent yesterday.”

Guan Yue finally remembered the purpose of his visit today.

“Yes, I almost forgot about our official business. Xiao Yu, I’ll come and play with you some other day alright?” Guan Yue reached out his hand to rub Qin Yu’s head.

Qin Yu tilted her head, and Ning Chen’s hand accurately hit the back of Guan Yue’s hand.

Guan Yue jumped away with a roar and glared at the two of them.

Qin Yu laughed.
