Ning Lang found a day when the academy didn't have classes, and made a special trip to Prince An's Mansion.
He had been to Prince An's Mansion many times, and even the guards at the door recognized him, so they put him in quickly without much obstruction.
On the other hand, Chu Fei was very curious: "What did you get, why did you come to this king early in the morning?"
Ning Lang shook his head: "I don't have anything fancy this time, I came to you for something else."
When it came to the girl in his heart, Ning Lang said it very solemnly.
It was the first time Chu Fei saw him look so serious, and he couldn't help but be more curious: "This is a rare thing."
He had known Ning Lang for so many days, and it was the first time he heard him want to talk to him about something serious.
"Let's talk." He adjusted his posture, lazily picked up the teacup, lowered his eyes and took a sip, and said, "Since you have all come to me, I really want to hear, what do you want? Ask me for help."
He had known Ning Lang for a long time, and the more he knew about this person's personality, he only liked to eat, drink and have fun, and he didn't get involved with anything serious. Although he was the eldest son of Ning's residence, his mind was still like a playboy. It was for the power behind him to get close to him, but Ning Lang was for the straw sparrow.
"I'm not here to ask you for help." Ning Lang touched his nose, and as soon as his serious expression disappeared, he suddenly became very embarrassed: "I recently had a girl I like..."
"Oh? Which lady is that?"
"It's not that lady."
"Civilian woman?"
"Yes."
Chu Fei asked again, "What do you think about marrying her as your regular wife?"
Ning Lang nodded embarrassedly: "If Xing'er is willing, then I naturally plan to do so."
Chu Fei stared at him for a while before asking, "Who asked you to ask me?"
Ning Lang was stunned for a moment: "… Huh?"
"If you are an ordinary woman, you are so fond of you, I am afraid you have already told your parents, I look at you, and I don't seem to be worried about this matter. Since I didn't come to me for help, it's good. , you won't tell me about this, I think you came to me after listening to someone?" Chu Fei said.
After Ning Lang finished listening to him, he couldn't help being awe-inspiring: "I didn't say anything, you already guessed it?"
It's not too hard to guess. Chu Fei laughed in his heart, and said again: "Let me guess, this time your sister asked you to come?"
Ning Lang was startled: "This... can you guess this?"
"How many times have you praised your sister in front of me? You listen to her the most on weekdays. Do you think I know the purpose of your sister asking you to come?"
Ning Lang hurriedly asked, "What is it?"
"I want to come and let me see if the girl Xing'er you mentioned is a good girl." If it's not good, maybe he will use his hand to let Ning Lang recognize the reality.
Chu Fei has known him for a long time, and he knows his temperament. He is the easiest to be deceived by others. Thinking about that, the lady of the Ning family is also very distressed about this. If she can ask her to call Ning Lang here, Xing'er will definitely be It's not as ordinary as Ning Lang said. She thought well, let him make this white face, and when she looked back, she was still a good sister.
Fortunately, he was in a good mood today, so he didn't mind being calculated like this.
Chu Fei recalled the startling glance at the teahouse, he touched his chin, but he didn't mind being a good friend.
"How can you guess everything?" Ning Lang said with admiration, "But you guessed wrong, Xing'er is a good girl, A Nuan is just worried that her background will not be accepted by you. If I marry Xing'er, She is my wife, and you are my very important friend, if you don't like Xing'er, or someone who wants to use Xing'er's identity to do something to you, then it will be too late."
"Then you came here to persuade me to accept your unspeakable... sweetheart?" Chu Fei sneered: "Who did you marry, that's the attitude of your Ning family, what does it have to do with this king?"
Ning Lang was startled.
Before he could react, Chu Fei added: "But since you've all come, I can't let you run around in vain. You might as well tell me what that girl Xing'er is from."
Ning Lang immediately forgot the wrong feeling that had arisen in his heart just now, and he quickly said: "That's right, Xing'er is a gentle and considerate girl, but her father is a good gambler and owes a lot of gambling debts. , he still doesn't know, and wants to sell Xing'er..."
"Wait." Chu Fei interrupted him and asked the exact same question as Ning Nuan: "You took a wife?"
"Of course not!" Ning Lang said angrily, "I found out in time and paid off the gambling debt for Xing'er's father. Xing'er is still an innocent girl."
Chu Fei nodded: "Go on."
"Xing'er's father's gambling addiction can't be quit. Xing'er is also very affectionate and meaningful. I like her kindness." Ning Lang said happily, "I don't mind Xing'er's father's affairs, it's just that Xing'er is so kind. My father and mother may not be able to accept her from a low background, but don’t worry about it, when they meet Xing’er, they will naturally like her.”
Ning Lang said, as if he had already seen the day when the girl in his heart married him.
Chu Fei pondered for a while and asked, "How did you meet her?"
"That's it, I was on the road with my friend that day, and I happened to meet Xing'er being chased by debt collectors. My friend knew Xing'er earlier, so he took me to rescue people. After I chased the debt collectors away, then I I met Xing'er..." Ning Lang recalled: "I have a very close relationship with Xing'er, and I always meet a few times on the street, once or twice, we just..."
As he spoke, he was very embarrassed, glanced at Chu Fei, and then fell silent again.
Chu Fei was helpless: "Didn't you tell me?"
"No matter what anyone says about these things, they will be embarrassed." Ning Lang took out his purse from his arms again: "Look, Xing'er did it for me herself."
Chu Fei glanced at it and quickly looked away.
Judging from the vision he had cultivated in the palace since he was a child, the craftsmanship of the purse was really clumsy.
Ning Lang was still happily saying, "Look, isn't Xing'er ingenious?"
Chu Fei: "..."
Chu Fei suddenly understood his sister's worries.
Guessing in a bad direction, needless to say, this is a jump from an encounter with an immortal.
"How much money did you spend on her? Or, how much gambling debt did you pay for her?"
"This?" Ning Lang didn't expect him to ask this. He was unprepared for a while. He recalled it carefully, and then shook his head: "I can't remember."
"Many times?"
"Xing'er's father is a gambler. No matter how much Xing'er persuades him, he can't persuade her. If his father still can't pay the money, he will sell her.
Chu Fei glanced at his waist, and sure enough, the jade pendant he often wore was gone.
"I heard that you were recently detained by Mrs. Ning, and you can't go anywhere?"
"Isn't it? I haven't seen Xing'er for several days. She even sent me a message and sent me this purse."
Chu Fei thought for a while, and then said, "Go back."
"Go back, go back?"
"After a couple of days, I'll send someone to look for you, and then you can remember to come over." Chu Fei said, "But remember, you won't be able to see your sweetheart again these days, if she asks someone to find you If you want money, you can't give it."
Ning Lang suddenly became anxious: "Then what if her father owes gambling debts again and wants to sell her?"
"It won't be too many days. Before you appeared, her father was a good bet, and she still wasn't sold. Your sweetheart and her father have been together for so many years, and it's just a matter of procrastinating for a few days. It's not a problem."
After listening to his comfort, Ning Lang barely calmed down. After hesitating again and again, he finally agreed to Chu Fei's words.
Originally, he had planned to find Xing'er after leaving the palace, but now he didn't dare to go any more, so he went straight back to Ning's residence, and obediently stayed at home to read the book.
Ning Nuan inquired with him, and when he heard what King An told him, he breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that King An was willing to take this matter over.
After a few days, the steward of Prince An's mansion really came to look for Ning Lang. Ning Lang couldn't wait for a moment, he just escaped from the academy under the supervision of the servant, and went to Prince An's mansion in a hurry.
Chu Fei was already waiting for him, dressed in casual clothes, when he saw him coming, he shook his fan and took him into the carriage.
When Ning Lang was seated, he asked curiously, "Where are you taking me?"
Chu Fei snorted: "Don't you want me to accept that girl Xing'er? How can I know if she is as good as you say if I don't see her with my own eyes?"
Ning Lang was overjoyed when he heard it: "You will definitely like her when you see her... No, you can't like her, and a friend's wife can't play. Only I can like Xing'er."
Chu Fei glanced at him and said in his heart: Only a fool like you would be fooled.
When the carriage approached Hulu Alley, it stopped outside. Chu Fei was the first to lift the curtain and get out of the car, but Ning Lang was stunned for a moment and quickly followed.
"Why did you stop here? There's still a long way to go?" Ning Lang wondered.
Chu Fei waved his fan leisurely: "This king is tired of sitting in the carriage, so come down for a walk. Don't you know where your sweetheart lives?"
"Of course I know."
"Then you lead the way."
Ning Lang walked in front of him.
The two were well dressed and attracted a lot of attention along the way.
After walking into Hulu Alley and looking at the red lanterns hanging at the gate, Chu Fei's brows furrowed. He put away his fan and covered his nose, which seemed unbearable. It's still broad daylight, but behind the gate of the surrounding yard, there is still a faint sound of a woman's coquettish laughter.
Ning Lang reassured: "It's a little messy here, but don't worry, Xing'er is a good girl, she's different from these people."
Chu Fei was noncommittal.
They didn't stop until they reached the door of Miss Xing'er's house. Chu Fei looked up and saw no lantern.
Ning Lang was about to knock on the door, but he stopped him: "Wait."
"What?" Ning Lang turned to look at him suspiciously: "We have arrived at Xing'er's place."
Chu Fei raised his footsteps and walked to the side: "Come with me."
Ning Lang didn't know why, but he still raised his heels behind him.
The two walked around to the back door, and Chu Fei said, "Go in."
"Why do you have to go through the back door if you don't go through the good door?" Ning Lang was even more puzzled, but he didn't say anything. He raised his hand to knock on the door as he did, but was stopped by Chu Fei.
"I let you in, but didn't let you knock on the door."
"...Ah?" Ning Lang was dumbfounded.
Chu Fei tapped him on the head with a fan, tipped his toes, and jumped to the courtyard wall. Ning Lang was stunned, he opened his mouth to scream, but he was the first to block his mouth with a fan.
Chu Fei said in a low voice, "Who do you think this king is here for, and who is here to climb other people's yard? I've even done such a shameful thing with you. When this matter is resolved, thank you very much. I'll give it a shot, and tomorrow I'll kick the door of your Ning Mansion. Come up."
Ning Lang's eyes widened. Hearing his threat, he opened his mouth to say something, but closed his mouth obediently. After repeatedly apologizing in his heart and the girl in his heart, he climbed up the courtyard wall with his hands and feet. , was pulled by Chu Fei, looking very embarrassed.
He sat on the wall, not knowing for a while whether he should go down or not.
Chu Fei pointed to the inside of the house: "Look."
what to see
That... that's the house where Xing'er lives, what if he rashly looks over and sees something that shouldn't be seen...
Ning Lang's face was flushed, and he turned his head with hesitation. He only felt the blood in his body boil, and after a while, the red from his neck to the roots of his ears.
Chu Fei slapped him on the head and cursed: "This king will let you see!"
Ning Lang hurriedly turned around and looked over.
This turn of his head made all his enthusiasm fade away, and it suddenly cooled from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.
Ning Lang widened his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. I saw the window of the room watching, he was lying on the wall, and he could just see the scene inside. He saw that Xing'er was right, but there was another person beside Xing'er!
Who wasn't that person, it was someone he and Xing'er knew together, his friend, the one who introduced Xing'er to him!
The two snuggled together, looking very close, and he chose a good position, so he could see the two clearly.
The two rubbed their ears together, and their attitudes were intimate. Not only did they whisper some intimate words, but they also moved their feet. He could clearly see that the man also put his hand into Xing'er's clothes! Not only did Xing’er not resist, she even smiled and hid in the man’s arms.
Ning Lang's eyes were splitting, had he ever seen the shy and gentle Xinger look like this
"See clearly?" Chu Fei said: "See clearly, then let's go?"
After he finished speaking, he jumped first. When he saw that Ning Lang was still sitting on the wall in a daze, he reluctantly pulled his foot. Ning Lang fell from the wall in embarrassment, but he couldn't control that much. He didn't even make a sound when he fell heavily to the ground. After he fell, he lay on the ground and didn't move.
"Stupid?" Chu Fei kicked him: "What are you still doing here? Why don't you leave quickly? Waiting for others to find out that this king is doing such a shameful thing with you?"
Only then did Ning Lang react.
He got up from the ground unresponsively, followed Chu Fei and walked out, all the way out of the Hulu Alley, he only felt that the sound from the surrounding courtyard was extremely harsh.
It wasn't until he got back to the carriage that Ning Lang took a deep breath and let it out again.
He arched his waist in frustration, still in disbelief: "How could this be..."
"Where in the world can there be such a coincidence, there is an innocent woman who is as beautiful as a flower waiting for you to be a hero to save the beauty, and she has a miserable life, just waiting for your money to save her?" Chu Fei sneered: "The one who came out from here People, how can there be any innocence."
"But, but..."
"Stay with your sweetheart, your friend, right?"
"..."
Ning Lang's eyes were red and he nodded silently.
No matter how stupid his brain is, he can react when he sees such a picture.
Whether he was deceived or deceived by his own friends. What kind of gentle and kind Xing'er, it's all fake, maybe even the gambling debt is fake, the money he gave out probably went into the pockets of the dog and the man.
When he was thinking about the girl in his heart day and night at home, what would those two be thinking? Maybe laughing at his stupidity.
"You knew it a long time ago?"
"You're the only one who's stupid, and you don't investigate anyone with whom you're dealing. With so many flaws, you can be fooled into being fooled. Why do you think your sister asked you to come see me?"
Ning Lang was slightly startled: "A Nuan, she..."
"Your sister has already discovered it, but she persuaded you, I'm afraid you didn't take it to heart, right?"
Ning Lang was speechless and could only nod silently.
"If she insists on blocking, I'm afraid it will make you unhappy, but now it's better, I've become the person who beat the mandarin ducks." Chu Fei smiled: "It's rare that your sister is so painstaking, it's still considered me to communicate with you. For the pleasure's sake, I will also help you."
"Ah Nuan..."
"After you go back, you only said that you broke up with those two liars, but don't let her worry about it." Chu Fei shook his head: "It's a pity that you're still an older brother, so now you're letting her worry about it."
Ning Lang was silent.
Not only Chu Fei, even Ning's mother, Ning's father, said these words. In the past, he only thought that he was the elder brother who stood up to the sky, but now it is the first time that he realizes that he is really inferior to A Nuan.
A Nuan was still so young, and he also said that he wanted to protect his sister so that she would not be wronged, but now he is causing A Nuan to worry about him, and he is really too jerk.
Ning Lang was silent for a long time before thanking him softly.
Chu Fei didn't say anything, just sent him to the door of Ning Mansion.
When he got off the car, Chu Fei said, "Don't forget, you owe me an adult."
Ning Lang said: "I will remember."
Chu Fei raised his eyes and glanced at the plaque at the gate of the Ning Mansion: I don't know how this young lady of the Ning family owes her so much, and how she plans to pay it back.
The carriage just left.
Ning Lang hurriedly ran into the Ning Mansion, and met Ning's mother in the middle. When Ning's mother saw him, she raised her eyebrows. Just as she was about to lecture, Ning Lang ran faster and disappeared in a blink of an eye. , so that Mother Ning didn't even have time to say a word.
Ning Lang hurriedly ran into Ning Nuan's room.
Ning Nuan was watching from the room, and when he heard the movement of him running in, he was startled, and quickly looked up at him: "Brother, what's the matter?"
Ning Lang stood still in front of her, his chest heaving violently, he took a few deep breaths before finally calming his breath, and asked, "A Nuan, do you know everything?"
"What did your brother say?"
"It's about Xing'er." Ning Lang said, "Did you... know early on that Xing'er is not a good person?"
Ning Nuan was stunned.
She had known that King An was willing to help, but now, after hearing what Ning Lang said, she knew that King An had already solved the matter.
Ning Nuan thanked An Wang in his heart, nodded and said, "Yes, brother, I know all about it."
Ning Lang suddenly lost his breath.
He sat down in frustration and asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I already reminded my brother, but he didn't listen to me either." Ning Nuan smiled and patted him comfortingly: "But isn't it just right now? My brother already knows that Miss Xing'er is not a good family. It's not too late to know even now."
Ning Lang shyly said, "As my elder brother, I let you worry about it..."
"What's the matter, my brother didn't bother me the first day." Ning Nuan said, "If my brother is really embarrassed, I might as well listen to my mother and go to the academy to study hard. It's a light on the face."
Ning Lang sighed heavily.
He was also immersed in the loss of being deceived by his friends and worrying his sister.
Ning Nuan thought about it for a while and then diverted his attention: "Did my brother play truancy again?"
Ning Lang froze all of a sudden.
Before he could say anything, Ning's mother's voice came from outside.
"Where's Ning Lang? Let me come out!" Ning's mother said angrily, "How did I tell him to let him take classes in the academy well, and he is not allowed to skip classes if he has nothing to do. After a few days of peace, he skipped class again. I make people look at me, that's how I look?"
Ning Lang: "..."
Ning Lang immediately remembered that he had just ignored Ning's mother in a panic.
He stood up immediately, and accidentally bumped into the stool in a panic.
"Ah Nuan, I... I'll go first." Ning Lang said anxiously, "What's the matter? Let's talk about it next time."
While he was talking, he ran to the door, but he happened to bump into Ning's mother who came in. Ning Lang's face turned pale, and he was quickly taken out by Ning's ear.
Not long after, Ning Lang's screams came from outside.
Ning Nuan couldn't help laughing, picked up the unfinished book again, and continued to read from the place where she had not read the last time.
After a while, Mother Ning finished cleaning up her stupid son, and finally came over with clapping her hands.
"A Nuan." She sat down beside Ning Nuan and gave Xiang Tao another wink.
Xiang Tao understood in her heart, and quickly retreated with the maids, and did not forget to close the door when she left.
"mother?"
Ning Nuan looked at her curiously: "What do you have to do with me?"
"Ah Nuan, I have something important to tell you." Mother Ning said solemnly, "your father told me something. It was told to me many days ago. These days, we both discussed it. After that, your father said it for sure, I think this time, he should not change his mind."
"what?"
Mother Ning looked around and saw that there was no one outside the door, so she came to Ning Nuan's ear again. Despite this, she was worried that she would be heard, so she suppressed her voice and said excitedly, "He wants to split up!"
"what?!"
Ning Nuan's eyes were rounded, and she was also shocked.
