Chapter 610
Chapter 610 - InjuriesThe butler in the car also recognized that it was Lan Jia's, so he immediately slowed down and met up with Lan Jia's sportscar. As the window rolled down, Man Ni called out to him in surprise, "Young Master."
Lan Jia also happily called out to him, "Man Ni, you're back."
"Yes, I'm back." Man Ni laughed brilliantly. Following that, Man Ni saw the black haired girl sitting on Lan Jia's copilot, perhaps she had always been living in a bustling city, but her aesthetic beauty had long been on guard, so in Man Ni's eyes, Ye Xiaoshi was indeed just an ordinary girl. Her eyes immediately revealed a hint of disdain.
"Alright, see you at lunch." After Lan Jia finished speaking, he stepped on the throttle and drove forward. He had been on the copilot the entire time, but Ye Xiaoshi, who did not speak, was sensitive to Man Ni's gaze on her.
After the sports car drove for a hundred meters, Ye Xiaoshi turned her head and asked curiously, "Lan Jia, who is that beautiful young miss?"
"Her name is Man Ni, she is the daughter of housekeeper Lu Ke, and is also a friend that I grew up with. She has been studying abroad for the past few years, but who would have thought that she would return today." Lan Jia explained. Following that, he slowed down and looked at Ye Xiaoshi a little nervously, "Don't misunderstand, I'm only treating her like my little sister."
However, Ye Xiaoshi was not stupid. That girl obviously liked Lan Jia, and she was of the same age as him. Furthermore, they grew up together, they were mutually attracted by one another, and with Lan Jia being so outstanding, it was not strange for this girl called Man Ni to like him.
Ye Xiaoshi pursed her lips and smiled, "I didn't misunderstand."
When Lan Jia brought Ye Xiaoshi back at noon, he changed into a set of sexy and wild clothes. Man Ni wore a white shirt, which was slightly exposed.
She stood at the door and welcomed Lan Jia who had alighted with joy. She was just like before, extremely intimate as she walked to Lan Jia's side, raised her white and exquisite face, and spoke with a frown, "Young Master, long time no see."
"Long time no see." After Lan Jia finished, he introduced Ye Xiaoshi to her. "Let me introduce my fiancee, Xiao Shi."
Man Ni's eyes immediately revealed a trace of smile, "I heard my father mention her before. Young Master, she is the granddaughter of the foreigner who repaid your grandfather's gratitude, right?!"Ye Xiaoshi's expression changed slightly. Man Ni's tone of voice made her feel extremely uncomfortable, as if she was ridiculing him.
Lan Jia's expression also became a bit ugly. He berated in a low voice, "Man Ni, pay attention to the way you speak."
Seeing that Lan Jia was angry, she immediately retracted that light and carefree expression, and pitifully lowered his eyes. However, she did not have the thought of apologizing to Ye Xiaoshi.Ye Xiaoshi said to Lan Jia, "I'm a little tired, I will go back to my room to rest."
She spoke in Chinese, and although her English was good, she didn't want to speak it.Lan Jia could hear the anger in his voice, and he glared at Man Ni angrily and said, "I will accompany you."
Ye Xiaoshi also did not refuse, and Man Ni just stood there coldly by the side like that.
After Lan Jia and Ye Xiaoshi left, Man Ni bit his lips and silently left.
The maid who was watching behind him immediately whispered to each other. One must know that, since she was also a servant, Man Ni had always raised her status, probably because her father was the manager of the entire island.However, in the eyes of the servants, Man Ni treated them too seriously. Now, it was rare for them to see her being scolded in front of Lan Jia, so they all felt a little happy in their hearts.
Ye Xiaoshi sat on the sofa on the second floor.'s words had hurt her self-esteem, which made her think back to what she had just said. If it wasn't for her grandfather who had saved her back then, and if she was just a girl completely foreign to him, would Lan Jia have liked her?
The first two people that he met were proof that he would definitely not look at her again. This made Ye Xiaoshi feel extremely bitter and baffled just thinking about it.
Lan Jia walked up the stairs and looked at the girl who was sitting in the corner of the sofa and staring blankly out of the window. He sighed lightly.
"I apologize for her." Lan Jia said in a low voice.
Ye Xiaoshi pursed her lips and laughed self-deprecatingly, "Why did you apologize to me on her behalf? She is not wrong, we have always been in love with gratitude. "
Lan Jia panicked. He was worried that she would think like that.
"No, Little Shi, I forbid you to say this. The relationship between us started with gratitude, but now, my feelings for you, are real love." Lan Jia anxiously retorted.
"If my grandfather hadn't saved your grandfather back then, if we had returned to our initial meeting, if I wasn't Ye Xiaoshi, would you have liked me?" Ye Xiaoshi raised his head and asked somewhat sorrowfully.
Lan Jia was instantly unable to answer because the first time he had seen her, his feelings towards her was indeed not like his, but loathe her."Lan Jia, I know that you want to repay me with your gratitude, but you don't need to force it. I hope that you can choose a woman you like to marry, and not tie your marriage to mine because of your gratitude." Ye Xiaoshi took a deep breath. When she said those words, her heart was very calm.
Lan Jia was slightly flabbergasted, he anxiously sat beside her and held her hand, "I like you, and the one I want to marry is also you. Little Shi, you better not think too much."
"I will stay here. I will not ask you to marry me immediately. I will give you time to think things over." After Ye Xiaoshi finished speaking, he removed the hand he was holding and stood up to return to his room.
Lan Jia was immediately stunned, he didn't need any time to think, he just wanted to marry her.
Lan Jia bit his lips. He felt that it was necessary for him to go and find Man Ni now. He wanted to make Man Ni change her attitude and attitude towards Ye Xiaoshi in the future.
After Lan Jia finished making her decision, he stood up and went downstairs. From the balcony, Ye Xiaoshi saw him driving his car out.
Was he going to look for Man Ni?Ye Xiaoshi stayed in her room, feeling bored. She pushed open the door and walked out, but just as she was about to go downstairs, she heard two maids discussing something.
One of the maids said, "Young Master has already brought the real Miss Ye back, so why would he leave this painting here?""Of course it's because young master still loves a Miss Ye!"
"But, the one that young master brought back last time was not the real Miss Ye! Young Master brought her here to deceive Master. "
"Although it's fake, I feel that the young master won't be able to forget about her. She's so beautiful, otherwise, the young master wouldn't have brought that lady back. He even almost organized a wedding!"
