Chapter 405 Is this playing hard to get?
Under the dim light, Ning Siyu saw a figure walking towards her from the other end of the corridor. Her hair was tied into a bun on top of her head, and she was wearing clothes that didn't look very thick, and a gray apron on the outside. She was obviously dressed like a servant of the Lu family.
Ning Siyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This was not a thief, just a servant. Maybe he had encountered something and was hiding here crying.
It was snowing heavily, and the rustling sound of large flakes of snow falling was particularly pleasant in this quiet night. The girl in front of me still had tears on her face, but a smile was hanging on the corners of her mouth.
"It's me. I'm sorry, Madam. I just miss home too much. I'm really sorry for causing you trouble." Qin Anyi lowered her head, standing there with her hands and feet tied.
"I thought a thief had broken into the room. It's cold at night, don't stay outside. If you have anything on your mind, you can tell me. I can't sleep anyway." Ning Siyu said as she looked up at the sky. It was still pitch black, but countless snowflakes were falling, as if the snow would never stop.
Qin Anyi knew that this was the woman who had just married Lu Jinxiao today. The servants were also instructed to call her Young Madam. They also knew that she was pregnant, so they couldn't let a pregnant woman stand in the snow and chat with them because of their own affairs.
Qin Anyi asked Ning Siyu to come into the house, and went to the kitchen to cook some easy-to-digest wontons for Ning Siyu. Unexpectedly, after doing all this, her mood actually improved a little.
After eating a bowl of wontons, Ning Siyu felt warm all over and looked at the girl in front of her with gratitude.
"No need to thank my young lady. My brother did something wrong, so I came to the Lu family to atone for his sins, hoping to reduce his sins and get forgiveness from the Lu family." Qin Anyi didn't know why she had the urge to talk. "I was so busy today that I scratched my forehead and hands. I couldn't help but think about it when it was late at night. I didn't expect to meet the young lady."
Ning Siyu then noticed the redness and swelling under her bangs. She had such a big bump on her head, which was really scary. Moreover, her bangs were trimmed very irregularly, with the left side thicker and thicker than the right side. It was obvious that they were trimmed randomly to cover up the redness and swelling.
As if she noticed the look in Ning Siyu's eyes, Qin Anyi lowered her head again and combed her hair in an unnatural manner.
"Your injury needs treatment. Where is some medicinal wine? I can help you." Ning Siyu asked.
"No need, Madam. I'm fine. You should go and rest." Qin Anyi immediately stood up and came over to support Ning Siyu.
But I was startled by a voice.
"What are you doing?" Lu Jincheng woke up and didn't see Ning Siyu. He was so anxious that he came out wearing only a thick nightgown. As soon as he came out, he saw Qin Anyi trying to pull Ning Siyu's arm.
This roar made Qin Anyi freeze in place, and the smile on her face froze.
Of course, Lu Jincheng knew that it was Qin Muchen who poisoned his grandfather Lu Boran, so he didn't have a good impression of Qin Anyi. He just thought that Qin Anyi was going to push Ning Siyu to the ground, so he hurried over.
"Jincheng, why did you come down?" Ning Siyu asked puzzledly.
Lu Jincheng carefully took Ning Siyu around and looked her over. After making sure that nothing was wrong, his cold face finally softened a little.
"I didn't see you when I woke up, and I thought you didn't want me anymore!" Even someone as cold as Lu Jincheng would say such cheesy love words to Ning Siyu.
As soon as these words were spoken, Ning Siyu's face turned red. She subconsciously glanced at Qin Anyi, and was relieved to see that she didn't react too much.
"I can't sleep. Miss Qin cooked me a bowl of wontons. Don't be so mean to her!" Ning Siyu gently pulled his nightgown. "I'm a little sleepy. Let's go to bed."
Lu Jincheng wanted to say something else, but he couldn't resist Ning Siyu's coquettishness, and was distracted as he was pulled back to the room by her.
Qin Anyi was the only one left in the living room. She stood there looking at the bowl of wonton soup that had long gone cold, lost in thought.
"What are you doing standing here in the middle of the night?" Lu Jinxiao heard the noise and saw Qin Anyi. He thought she was secretly eating something from the kitchen.
The brother secretly put drugs in the baby's mouth, and the sister stole food from the kitchen. The whole family likes to do such sneaky things!
He felt even more contempt for Qin Anyi.
Qin Anyi turned around and saw the disgust in his eyes that had not faded, and her heart felt a little cold.
Ever since what happened today, she no longer had any expectations for such a man. She now just wanted to serve Mr. Lu well and ask the police to release him as soon as possible.
No matter how much injustice and suffering she had endured before, she could endure it!
"Why, you don't want to talk?" Lu Jinxiao saw the wonton soup on the table and looked at her with some disdain. "You are still waiting here so late, are you waiting for me? Qin Anyi, you are too self-righteous, aren't you?"
Qin Anyi's eyes widened in shock at his words. Why didn't she realize that this man was so narcissistic before?
"I couldn't sleep at night, so I came out to relax. I didn't expect to meet the young lady. I saw that she was hungry, so I cooked something for her." Qin Anyi tidied the table quickly, "Master Jinxiao, don't think too much."
Lu Jinxiao frowned and stood there without moving.
Is this playing hard to get?
Seeing that I ignored her, she changed her approach?
But he had clearly acted so cold during the day, and he didn't even help her up when she fell. Why was she still thinking about getting his attention?
It's so ridiculous.
"Even if you have a face like this, I won't sympathize with you or pity you. Remember, you are a sinner!" Lu Jinxiao noticed the redness and swelling on her forehead and his eyes turned cold.
Who are you showing yourself to by making yourself look so pitiful?
Did she think he would feel bad?
You’re really dreaming!
Qin Anyi originally thought that her heart would not be stirred in the slightest, but when she heard him say that, her heart still ached as if being pricked by a needle.
"Lu Jinxiao, that's enough! I'm not here because of you! Don't be so self-indulgent! Who do you think you are? You're just a rich second-generation with a better family background. How much nobler are you than me?" Qin Anyi was so angry that she looked up and yelled at Lu Jinxiao with red eyes, "Lu Jinxiao, you are so childish! I will never like you again, never!"
Everyone knows that Qin Anyi likes Lu Jinxiao. In order to create some chance encounters, she can follow him closely.
Some people said that it was cheap for a girl to chase a boy like this, but she was the only one who thought it was all worth it. She was willing to do anything to make him see her.
But now, she shouted it out so bluntly without any regard, and Lu Jinxiao was still choked by her words.
He used to think that this carefree young lady spoke softly, but he didn't expect that she could be so angry and speak so loudly!
The threatening look on his face looked as if he was going to give him a good beating.
