Xiaoxiao nodded, and Rong Yan asked again, “You didn’t tell your parents about this?”

If she said it, with how much they doted on Xiaoxiao, they should have fallen out with the second branch long ago.

Xiaoxiao sighed helplessly. “I didn’t remember at first. I wasn’t very smart before I fell sick. You should have heard of this too. At that time, I was too feverish and my memories were blurred from the fever. Later on, when I remembered, I felt that there was no need to mention it again.”

If her family found out that the original host was actually often beaten up by Second Uncle and was seriously ill because everyone’s attention was on Ning Fengnian and had ignored her, other than making them blame themselves and feel guilty, it was useless.

After some consideration, Xiaoxiao said to Rong Yan, “I don’t like those complicated misunderstandings, so I won’t hide anything from you. I said that there’s no need to mention it, but it doesn’t mean that I’ve forgiven them. I’ll still do my best to give them the punishment they deserve.”

She took out the box containing the hairpin and took out the jade pendant Rong Yan had given her from her space under the cover of her sleeve. “I don’t want to pretend in front of you or lie to you, so… if I say that Second Uncle’s arrest and the old residence and the second branch turning against each other is related to me, are you still going to give me the jade pendant and hairpin?”

Rong Yan took the jade pendant and tied it around Xiaoxiao’s waist. “Don’t ask again in the future, but you can ask me for help.”

Xiaoxiao suspected that she was grinning from ear to ear. “My Little Big Brother Ah Yan is indeed the best Little Big Brother!”

This time, Rong Yan was not shy anymore. He said solemnly, “Actually, I’m hiding something from you too. I…”

With a bang, a flower pot fell on the road, interrupting Rong Yan. He frowned and looked over, but Xiaoxiao heard a space notification: [Master, someone is following you. He has been maintaining a distance of four meters away. He was the one who suddenly approached and pushed the flower pot away.]

[Master, after the ingredient identification, this person is the one who helped you when Tong Bin sent thugs to chase after you!]

What, what f*cking ingredient identification!

Xiaoxiao recalled the space’s identification of poisonous mushrooms—they could be eaten, but they would die if they ate too much of it.

This person was a friend, not an enemy. Hence, there was a high chance that this person was Little Big Brother Ah Yan’s man?

Did Little Big Brother Ah Yan ask him to protect her that time?

It turned out that he had been interested in her for so long.

Rong Yan didn’t understand what Xiaoxiao was laughing about, but just as he was about to confess his identity, Xiaoxiao said, “If you have any secrets that aren’t suitable for me to know now, I can wait.”

Rong Yan heaved a sigh of relief. He didn’t want to hold back on purpose, but he was more worried that Ning Xiaoxiao would be burdened by him. After all, with her status, she would probably attract trouble if she knew too much.

Before Yan Lu’s matter was settled, it was better to let her continue to treat him as an ordinary down-and-out young master.

“Okay.”

Turning to look in the direction where Second Aunt Ning had appeared, Rong Yan asked again, “Will you feel offended if I interfere?”

Xiaoxiao shook her head. “I’m not offended by your question.”

“And you want to help me, I can’t be pretentious. Do I look like someone who doesn’t know what’s good for her?”

Rong Yan nodded. After sending her to the cloth shop, he turned around and walked back. Xiaoxiao looked at his back and could not help but smile. Aiya, so this was how it felt to have someone stand up for her?

“Beautiful Shopkeeper? Beautiful Sister? I’m here to make delicious food for you! Order whatever you want!” rm in a good mood after making an appointment to leave singlehood today!

Rong Yan’s heart ached for Xiaoxiao, but when he looked at Second Aunt Ning again, his gaze was not so friendly.

However, it was too easy for Ning Fengcai to be jailed and the second branch to be separated.

Under his gaze, Second Aunt Ning suddenly regretted her decision to come over today.

She did not dare to hide it at all. Other than what Xiaoxiao said, she told him other details honestly.

“That day, the head of the household drank some wine and was very excited after hitting Big Brother’s head… I mean, he was very agitated and came back to tell me the details. Coincidentally, he saw Ning Xiaoxiao squatting in the courtyard after he finished talking. He was worried that the matter would be exposed, so he immediately pressed that girl’s head into the water vat…”

Rong Yan’s face darkened and he exuded a cold aura.

Second Aunt Ning didn’t dare to continue, let alone say it. She could only explain as she trembled, “That girl looked like she was about to die at that time. It was Mother who said that we couldn’t let the eldest branch discover any clues. That’s why we listened to Mother and carried her into the mountains and threw her into the ditch. We wanted to pretend that she lost her footing and was unlucky enough to be bitten to death by a wild beast.”

“Who knew that the weather would be cold? Those animals were all hiding in the winter. The eldest branch’s eldest son realized that she was missing and had gone to look for her no matter what. That’s why… that’s why he saved her.”

Rong Yan took a deep breath. “You only left her there and came back without worry? Aren’t you afraid that she will run home herself?” This evil woman avoided his gaze. She must have something to hide.

As expected, Second Aunt Ning stammered, “At first, she did want to resist, but every time she came out of the pit, she would be kicked back by the head…”

What she didn’t dare to say was that at that time, the head of the family enjoyed the feeling of constantly kicking Ning Xiaoxiao into a pit. Each kick was heavier than the last. When she didn’t have the strength to climb up again, he even pulled her up and kicked her himself. In the end, they left in peace because after kicking her back the last time, that girl… was no longer breathing…

God knew how she came back to life.

At first, Second Aunt Ning was uneasy and followed Ning Xiaoxiao every day. She only dared to relax after confirming that Ning Xiaoxiao did not remember anything. Otherwise, the head of the family would ask her to find a way to take Ning Xiaoxiao’s life again.

No matter how much she tried to hide it, with Rong Yan’s intelligence, it was impossible for him to be fooled by her. Just thinking about Xiaoxiao being kicked down again and again made Rong Yan’s chest ache.

“After doing such a thing, you still have the guts to ask Xiaoxiao to help you save Ning Fengcai?”

Second Aunt Ning was stunned for a moment. “But it’s my mother-in-law who asked the head to do this. We’re just listening to her. Young Master Zhao, you might not know, but my mother-in-law has always been in charge of our family.”

Rong Yan smiled coldly. “You want Ning Feng to be released from prison, right?”

Just as Second Aunt Ning didn’t have much hope, she heard the sound of nature. Zhao Yan said, “Okay.” However, his expression when he spoke was a little scary.

After Second Aunt Ning left, Rong Yan leaned against the wall. “Just this once. If you interfere with my decisions again in the future, you don’t have to be ‘Ying Zi’ anymore.”

After a long time, a clanging of a blade sounded from the dark. That was the secret guard’s answer—yes.

Xiaoxiao did not come to the Ruyi Clothing Shop just to borrow the kitchen. She also came to invite Shopkeeper Liu to attend the opening of her new shop and discuss new business with her.

The Li Family’s real boss was back. Of course, that so-called cousin could no longer make any random decisions. The matter of Fragrance Restaurant was considered over. After the soup dumpling business was cut off for a few days, it quickly recovered before it aroused the customers’ doubts.

In the contract this time, Li Muyan emphasized the Li Family’s responsibility for breaching the contract. If something similar happened again, the Li Family would compensate Ning Xiaoxiao with 100 taels of compensation. It could be said to be very sincere.

Fortunately, the soup dumpling business did not conflict with the business that Xiaoxiao was about to do with Mrs. Shen. She could take care of both.

Shopkeeper Liu said faintly, “You can earn money at both ends. Poor Shopkeeper Xu, you came to complain to me..’1
