Chapter 116 Waiting with Sincerity

Chapter 116 Waiting with Sincerity

Ning Yunxi reached out to stop him.

"Don't go, second brother!"

"Their tricks are really powerful."

Only after she reminded him did Ning Xuanfeng remember that he was afraid.

At first, he subconsciously retreated, and then he felt sorry for his sister.

"How can I watch you being wronged?"

"You are a princess and you are assisting King Dijin. They are just children of noble families. What right do you have to commit crimes against your superiors?"

"I will report this to Yin Sitai. If they don't care, I will report it to King Dijin. Anyway, I won't let you suffer."

Ning Yunxi explained patiently, with profound meaning in his words.

"You also know that they won't leave any evidence when they play tricks on you."

"How can we sue without evidence?"

"Even if I have evidence, how can I talk about my relationship with you guys after I file the lawsuit?"

As she spoke, her eyes seemed to be filled with towering mountains, vast snow-capped mountains, and a sense of righteousness, grandeur and magnificence.

"It's okay, second brother. Patience is the key to success. I believe that if you keep at it, there will be a day when the clouds will clear and the sun will shine."

"As long as I can save you, I won't feel wronged."

Ning Xuanfeng was filled with mixed feelings of sadness and joy, with tears in her eyes.

"Third sister, you are so kind."

"The better you are, the more ashamed I am."

"I was so foolish before. I ignored your efforts and only knew how to bully and tease you."

"You have been so kind to me, I don't know how to repay you."

At this time, the servant came to report: "Princess, Madam Ning is here."

Before Ning Yunxi could speak, Ning Xuanfeng responded first: "No!"

Ning Yunxi smiled helplessly.

"She is my mother. It is not polite for us to avoid her."

Ning Xuanfeng looked towards the main entrance with contempt.

"She used us first, what's wrong with that?"

Having said that, he turned his gaze to the servants.

"Go tell her that the third sister is filial and wanted to meet her, but I don't agree."

"If she wants to cause trouble, she can just come after me and not disturb Third Sister."

The servants left in response.

Just after noon, Mu Rong came again.

Ning Xuanfeng was still missing.

In the evening, Mu Rong came with gifts and full of sincerity.

Ning Xuanfeng still refused to see her and refused to let her in along with her gift.

Time flies and the night fades away.

Dawn was breaking, and as the sun rose the last few stars disappeared.

At dawn, Mu Rong had already arrived at the gate of Yuexi Mansion.

This time, she did not ask anyone to inform him, but waited anxiously for her son to go out.

Unexpectedly, only Ning Yunxi came.

"Greetings, mother."

After the ceremony, Ning Yunxi pretended to scold the guard at the door.

"My mother is here, but no one informed me?"

"How did you become a bad guy?"

The leading guard first admitted his mistake and then explained.

"I know I was wrong, please calm down, my lord."

"Madam Ning specifically instructed us not to report it."

Ning Yunxi's eyes were sharp as she continued to scold.

"Even so, you should bring a chair over and invite mother to sit down."

"Mother is a noble lady, how can you stand here? You are really disrespectful."

The guard then explained.

"Madam Ning had said before that she would not let her subordinates wait for her to sit down. She insisted on standing and waiting to show her sincerity."

Ning Yunxi nodded in response, then turned to look at Mu Rong and spoke softly with concern.

"Why does mother do this?"

"Second brother is just angry for a moment. You can go back home and rest. I will help you persuade him. Okay?"

Mu Rong's look of disgust was self-evident.

"You are the one who is going to persuade me?"

"The streets are quiet and deserted in the early morning. Who are you pretending to be so affectionate with your daughter?

"Ning Yunxi, I advise you to hand over Feng'er obediently, otherwise, I will not let you off easily!"

Ning Yunxi acted as if she was aggrieved.

"What is this that mother is saying?"

"Second brother, come and stay at my house for a few days, it's just like going home, is there any problem?"

"How come my mother said it was me who tied him up?"

"The child is very wronged."

Mu Rong glared and gnashed her teeth.

"To take away someone's beloved son is a complete loss of conscience."

"If you really have the ability, you can just deal with me openly. Why do you have to go around in circles and attack Feng'er?"

"Feng'er is pure and unadulterated. What use can it have to you?"

"If you dare to use him to do something against the will of heaven and earth, I will fight you to the death!"

At this point, Ning Xuanfeng came over after hearing the voice.

The moment he saw Mu Rong, his face darkened.

"Didn't I tell you that if you want to cause trouble, just come to me and don't bully my third sister?"

Seeing that it was her son, Mu Rong's momentum weakened in an instant.

He quickly took Ning Yunxi's hand and put on a kind smile.

"Feng'er, you misunderstood."

"I don't mean to cause trouble, but I come here to care about Xi'er."

As he spoke, he signaled with his eyes to the maids behind him, each of whom was holding a variety of brocade boxes in their hands.

"Look, I bought these for Xi'er."

"You don't know, but every few days I would prepare gifts for you, fearing that Xi'er would feel neglected by us after she moved out."

She patted the back of Ning Yunxi's hand gently.

"Although the gift is small, the sentiment is profound. I hope you will accept it."

Ning Yunxi responded respectfully, but there was a hint of contempt in her eyes.

"Thank you for your care, mother. I feel so unworthy of it."

Ning Xuanfeng frowned and glared at Mu Rong, not moved at all.

"What is your attitude towards your third sister usually? Haven't I seen it enough?"

"It's still early, and there's no one on the street. Who are you pretending to be like this for?"

As he spoke, he brushed off Mu Rong's hand and protected his third sister behind him.

"Third sister has been deceived by her, how can you be so foolish as to still trust her?"

"Wake up, she's been lying to you!"

Ning Yunxi hid behind her second brother and quietly and playfully made a face to Mu Rong, her tone still pretending.

"I know...but second brother, she is my mother after all."

Mu Rong was extremely angry, but she could only endure it and not lose her temper.

Ning Xuanfeng glanced away, eyes full of caution.

"What kind of mother is she if she plots against her children?"

"Is there any mother in the world who is as heartless as her?"

Mu Rong could hardly hold back her anger, and her eyes were filled with helplessness as she faced her son.

"Feng'er, I didn't lie to you. It was Ning Yunxi who lied to you."

"I'm your mother, please trust me, okay?"

Ning Xuanfeng didn't buy it at all.

"Don't use the so-called family affection to restrict me."

"Do you think I'm the third sister? I saw through you after being deceived only once."

"Ms. Zhuang San is virtuous and dignified, and makes a good wife. Did you say that? Did you lie to me?"

Mu Rong was speechless for a moment.

"I……"

"This……"

"Ms. Zhuang is indeed naughty and willful, but she is not..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ning Xuanfeng.

"You must say that this statement is not a lie to me. She is virtuous and dignified. She is indeed a rare good wife."

Mu Rong was unable to react in time and failed to understand what he meant.

"what?"

Ning Xuanfeng snorted unhappily.

"As a husband, if I say something bad about my wife, it can be considered as encouragement."

"Who are you? Why do you call my wife naughty and willful? Why do you call her the third daughter of the village?"

"Don't you always talk about virtue, tolerance, and humility? Please treat me with courtesy and address me as Miss Zhuang San."

Mu Rong felt pain between her brows, but she still endured it.

"Okay, I'll respectfully call you Miss Zhuang San."

"Feng'er, be good and go back home with mother, okay?"
