In the bedroom, Ning Xueluo was looking at her makeup with satisfaction. Although her two poor and crude biological parents were good-for-nothing, they were good-looking and gave her a good face.
"Miss, there is a young man outside who says he is your brother. Would you like to invite him in?" asked the servant.
"My brother?"
"Yes, he said his name is Tang Nuo."
As soon as the servant finished speaking, there was a crisp "bang" sound, and the bottle of skin care products in Ning Xueluo's hand fell to the ground and shattered.
The servant was startled, "Miss, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Ning Xueluo's face was gloomy. She stood up quickly, walked to the window, pulled open the curtains, and looked downstairs.
Sure enough, at the gate of the yard, there stood a young man with a rustic appearance and carrying a lot of bags.
Damn…
What is this kid doing here!
At such a sensitive time!
She had finally suppressed the rumors outside, and her marriage with the Su family was approaching. Was this intentional against her
Ning Xueluo said angrily with an unhappy face, "Have you worked in the Ning family for so many years for nothing? I don't have any brothers! This is obviously some distant relative who wants to come and get some benefits! Why don't you chase him away? Do I need to teach you such a small thing?"
“Yes, yes, yes… I’ll go right away! Miss, please don’t be angry!” The servant was scolded so badly that he quickly retreated.
Outside the courtyard.
"Go away! Where did this poor beggar come from? How dare you try to get close to our young lady?"
"I am not ..."
"You're nothing? The young lady already said she doesn't know you! If you don't leave now I'll release the dogs!"
…
Amid the unpleasant sounds of being driven away, the young man could only leave sadly, looking back every few steps.
…
The sky was gray and the road was busy.
This bustling metropolis has dazzling new things, but not even a speck of dust belongs to him, not to people like him.
He knew he shouldn't have come...
Shouldn't have come...
But he really had no other choice...
Ning Xueluo's refusal to see him and expelling him cut off the only glimmer of hope the young man had...
It started raining at some point and the boy was soon soaked. Mechanically and numbly, he dragged the heavy things towards the shelter of a nearby convenience store.
Ning Xi was driving aimlessly on the streets of the imperial capital when she suddenly saw a familiar figure on the side of the road. She almost thought she was hallucinating because she was in such a bad state.
Tang Nuo
How could Xiao Nuo appear in the imperial capital...
With a sharp "squeak", Ning Xi hurriedly stopped at the door of a nearby store.
"Don't block here and disturb my business!" At that time, the owner of the convenience store was yelling at the boy loudly, as if he was yelling at a beggar.
A trace of humiliation appeared on the boy's face. Without saying a word, he carried his things and walked back into the rain.
"Xiao Nuo—"
At this moment, a voice came from behind him that was so familiar that it almost made him cry.
The young man stiffened his back, turned around with a look of disbelief, and stared blankly at the woman opposite him. His pale lips trembled, and after a long while he uttered a word, "Sister..."
Tang Nuo had always been in contact with Ning Xi, and he often used his mobile phone to surf the Internet to follow Ning Xi's related information, but when he first saw Ning Xi at this moment, he was still shocked. She had changed so much, but the intimate look in her eyes was the same as before...
