In fact, both he and she could be considered pitiful.

She had also lost her loved ones. Even though her father was still there, it didn't seem to be the case.

As for him, his three closest relatives had all left him, leaving him alone.

"NINGHAI, I'm sorry." Zhang Xiao lightly apologized to Ning Zhi Yuan, touching on his pain.

Ning Zhi Yuan looked at Mu Ya and carried Mu Ya over. Mu Ya still didn't like his hug, so she kept using her hands to pull at his big hands, but he didn't let go. Mu Ya felt like crying and looked towards Zhang Xiao as if asking for help. I'm used to it, but every day when I return home, I would have to face my parents and Tong Tong, it has nothing to do with you. " Even if she didn't ask him about his mother's death, he would always remember it.

Hugging Mu Ya who wanted to cry but couldn't do so, Ning Zhi Yuan turned around and returned to the sofa. Zhang Xiao also couldn't stand in front of the long table anymore, so he followed him back to the sofa and sat down opposite of him gently.

"NINGHAI, can I ask why you brought us back here?" Seeing Ning Zhi Yuan pursed his lips and looked at Mu Ya who was being held by him onto his thigh, yet was still struggling to slip away from his embrace, Zhang Xiao asked.

Mu Ya, who had always been unable to break free, was furious. She lowered her head and bit onto the back of Ning Zhi Yuan's hand.

"Mu Ya."

Zhang Xiao said in a low voice.

Ning Zhi Yuan lovingly replied, "It's fine, this little bit of pain is nothing.

Zhang Xiao looked at him in a daze.

All of a sudden, she felt that this man desperately needed love. He was so cold, so unyielding, but it was all life itself that forced him to do so.

"Ahhh!" Mu Ya saw that even after biting Ning Zhi Yuan, she did not let go. She turned her head and shouted at her uncle.

Ning Zhi Yuan, on the other hand, looked at her with an even more gentle and doting expression.

In this world, there was only this little girl in his arms who was close to his blood. Hugging Mu Ya up, he lowered his head and fiercely kissed Mu Ya's white and tender cheeks. The little wench unhappily wiped the places where she was kissed with her hand, staring at Ning Zhi Yuan.

His hand loosened, and Ning Zhi Yuan loosened his grip.

Mu Ya sensed that this was the chance to escape, so she immediately struggled free from his hands and slid down his thighs. She quickly ran in front of Zhang Xiao, crawled onto Zhang Xiao's thighs, and then turned around and sat in Zhang Xiao's embrace.

Seeing his like this, Ning Zhi Yuan did not get angry, but only faintly smiled.

This was the second time Zhang Xiao saw him smile from the bottom of her heart.

In fact, his smile was quite pretty. At least, it was able to match the cold lines on his face, making him seem less serious and cold.

"NINGHAI, you should smile more. Your smile is much gentler than when you aren't smiling."

Words, before the brain, rushed out.

After she finished speaking, Zhang Xiao looked at Ning Zhi Yuan warily, worried that this man would suddenly make another move. She had suffered in his hands.

Aunt Lan nodded her head vigorously at the side, but she did not dare to reply.

Ning Zhi Yuan looked at Zhang Xiao with a rare warm gaze, and teased: "Are you afraid of me too? "You're just saying something and you're already on guard. Are you afraid that I'll strangle you to death or that I'll rip off your scalp?"

"Both."

Zhang Xiao was also very honest.

Ning Zhi Yuan was startled, and snorted: "Your fear is truly different from others. In my eyes, Shen Ying Er is the only one who is afraid, and what you are doing is not afraid. "

As he spoke, he stood up and walked in the direction of the kitchen. He hadn't eaten anything all day. He was really hungry. There was no prepared food in the kitchen, but if he looked around, he should be able to find instant noodles.

Zhang Xiao didn't know what he was going to do, so when she saw him leave, she no longer answered. Once he left, Aunt Lan walked over, sat down beside Zhang Xiao and asked softly, "Miss Zhang, what medicine is in the gourd? When are you going to send us back? How about I secretly make a phone call to Third Young Master and have him come and pick me up? "

"Aunt Lan, are you afraid that he will kill us? "Don't worry, he'll definitely send us back." Zhang Xiao replied to Aunt Lan in amus.e.m.e.nt. From Aunt Lan's words, it could be seen how afraid he was of Ning Zhi Yuan.

Honestly speaking, Ning Zhi Yuan was indeed very cold. He had even pulled on her hair in Mu Family's territory, causing her to die from the pain. In his Ning Family's territory, if Ning Zhi Yuan wanted her life, it would be easier than killing an ant.

However, the current Ning Zhi Yuan seemed to have changed a little, especially to her.

The Aunt Lan laughed and said softly, "Miss Zhang, don't you feel that this Young Master Ning is very strange today, just like the Third Young Master? Could it be that both of them were struck by evil spirits, causing their bodies to turn ghostly? "

"Aunt Lan."

Aunt Lan laughed again and said embarra.s.sedly: "I was made stupid by Third Young Master, don't take me seriously, just treat it as a joke."

Ning Zhi Yuan rummaged through the kitchen for a while and finally found a bucket of Master Kang's barrel-filled bubbling surface.

He took the bubbling surface out and walked back to the tea table. He tore open the package and equipped it with the bubbling surface to eat.

"NINGHAI still hasn't eaten?"

Seeing that he wanted to go to the bubbling surface, Zhang Xiao asked one more time.

Ning Zhi Yuan casually replied: "I haven't eaten for a whole day."

"Is there no servant in the house of NINGHAI cooking? There's no nutrition for eating bubbling surface s. "

Ning Zhi Yuan answered: "I don't eat at home for many years, they are used to it. Without special instructions, they won't help me cook. I myself do not know how to cook, but I only know how to cook in the bubbling surface. "

Zhang Xiao placed Mu Ya on the sofa and stood up to ask, "If NINGHAI doesn't mind, I can help you cook a bowl of noodles. Or should I help you cook something? "

Ning Zhi Yuan froze and raised his head to look at her.

Zhang Xiao looked at him with a sincere gaze.

After a while, Ning Zhi Yuan's face stiffened as he acknowledged her. Then, he stopped going back to bubbling surface.

With his permission, Zhang Xiao made the Aunt Lan look after Mu Ya and headed towards the kitchen. Ning Zhi Yuan was afraid that she was not familiar with him, so she followed her and wanted to introduce her to him. Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "NINGHAI, just wait in the hall. I know the layout of the house very well. " Most of them were similar.

Thinking about her specialization, Ning Zhi Yuan stopped in his tracks, and watched Zhang Xiao's figure disappear into his kitchen.

"Zhang Xiao, I want to eat."

Ning Zhi Yuan said lowly in the direction of the kitchen.

It had been a long time since he had eaten a steaming meal in his own house.

Since Zhang Xiao was willing to help him, then he might as well be a little greedy and request for a piping hot meal.
