Chapter 186: Admit Your Mistake

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Seeing that Ye Ling didn’t remember anything, Min Nan became even more depressed. She was silent for a few seconds before saying, “You told me before that you would tell me everything in the future. But you didn’t tell me anything about Ah Hui.”

The thought of Ye Ling going to Aunt Mei’s house alone and spending time with Ma Biao alone made Min Nan feel extremely uncomfortable.

Ye Ling was stunned for a moment before she realized that this was what Min Nan was worried about.

Her face instantly turned red. Indeed, she had said those words before, but she quickly forgot about them…

Ye Ling coughed awkwardly. “I think it’s a small matter and there’s no danger, so…”

“No danger?” Min Nan looked at her sternly, as if he wanted to criticize her but couldn’t bring himself to do so. In the end, he could only sigh heavily. “Forget it. I won’t talk about it anymore. It’s useless even if I do.”

Ye Ling had never seen Min Nan angry before, so she was at a loss for what to do. The atmosphere between the two of them also became a little tense.

Ye Ling bit her lip and decided to admit her mistake.

She had indeed made a promise to Min Nan before. Of course, she had only said it casually at that time and did not intend to tell Min Nan everything. However, Min Nan believed it without a doubt.

Sighing, she realized she might have seemed unreliable, just like those who made empty promises and forgot about them right after…

Ye Ling felt a little guilty. Her voice sounded a little fawning. “Brother Min Nan, I was in the wrong. Don’t be angry.”

Ye Ling’s voice was soft and sweet, like a piece of gum that stuck to his teeth.

Min Nan’s heart trembled, and the depression in his heart instantly dissipated.

Was she coaxing him? What a wonderful feeling.

Min Nan had already surrendered in his heart, but the change in his expression was a little delayed. He still looked cold. “I’m not angry.”

Although Min Nan’s tone was not as stiff as before, Ye Ling felt that Min Nan was still blaming her.

He said he wasn’t angry, and he didn’t even look at her!

Ye Ling’s voice became even gentler. “Brother Min Nan, I just don’t want you to worry. I’m not a child anymore. I think I can handle this matter well, so I didn’t ask you for help. If it’s a problem that I can’t solve, the first person I think of to ask for help is you.”

Ye Ling’s voice was as soft as freshly plucked cotton, infused with the scent of sunlight. Min Nan’s heart completely surrendered to it. His heartbeat quickened, almost urging him to blurt out a plea to Ye Ling. “Please don’t use this tone to say such things. Which man can handle it?”

When Ye Ling mentioned that if she encountered difficulties, he would be her first choice for help, Min Nan’s heart swelled with sweetness.

Being needed by someone you care for feels wonderful. However, at the same time, Min Nan felt somewhat embarrassed.

Ye Ling claimed she wasn’t a child, but she was still underage this year. To Min Nan, she was merely a young girl who hadn’t yet matured. And now, this young girl was coaxing a grown man.

“So, don’t be upset, okay?” Ye Ling’s voice was so tender as if she was soothing a child. It brushed against Min Nan’s heart like a few feathers, causing an irresistible itch.

He took a deep breath and replied sincerely, “I’m truly not upset. Don’t worry. So, what’s your plan now?”

Ye Ling fell silent momentarily. Originally, she hadn’t intended to tell Min Nan the truth, but recalling her promise not to hide anything, she explained, “Once Aunt Mei gives me the money, I intend to use it to rent a house in a secluded part of town. I’ll have Ah Hui stay there for a while. As for Aunt Mei, I’ll create a false impression, making her believe that Ah Hui ran away after recovering.” Min Nan nodded in agreement. Ye Ling’s intelligence and thoughtfulness were evident.

“Do you need my help in finding a house?” he asked.

“There’s no need. I’ve been to town several times and know where to rent. Plus, since Ah Hui is a girl, I understand what type of house would suit her best. You guys tend to be more careless,” Ye Ling remarked, glancing casually at Min

Nan.

In reality, Ye Ling planned for Ah Hui to reside in the house she rented from Master Bai. Not wanting Min Nan to know about its existence, she continued to conceal it from him.

Min Nan didn’t doubt Ye Ling’s words in the slightest.

Under Ye Ling’s gaze, even if she asked him to jump into the river now, he would probably do so without a second thought.

Yet, within himself, he defended, “Not all men are careless.. Can you not treat me like Wan Feng?”
