Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Madam Is Truly Domineering
Old Sir Xie took Ye Ningwan to his room and brought out a red embroidered box.
He opened it, and inside was half of a jade pendant.
"This was your master’s keepsake, left with me back then, and it’s a token of your Holy Doctor Sect. However, it’s only half."
"Why are you suddenly willing to give it to me?" Ye Ningwan asked curiously.
Before, he was absolutely unwilling and said she had to marry Xie Mingyu.
Why suddenly give it today?
"Do you know why Yu’er is so angry?" Old Sir Xie answered with another question.
Ye Ningwan nodded.
A man being mocked for his inability, anyone would be angry.
If it were Zhan Hanjue, let alone Qiao Yichi’s leg, probably his life would be taken.
"Yu’er originally didn’t want me to tell you," Old Sir Xie sighed, "but today, I can’t not tell you."
"Is it about his health?"
Ye Ningwan speculated.
Old Sir Xie’s expression was grave as he nodded.
"Impossible," Ye Ningwan said, "I checked his pulse, he might be slightly weak in that aspect, but not damaged."
"Miss Ye, you have been married before. To a man, a weakness can make a big difference." Old Sir Xie said, his face uneasy.
Discussing such matters with a young girl made Old Sir Xie uncomfortable.
But for his grandson’s sake, he had no choice.
Ye Ningwan: "..."
No wonder he suddenly wanted her to leave, probably furious!
"How did you find out?"
Not even married, did Xie Mingyu find a woman yesterday?
"Last night, someone gave Mingyu something he shouldn’t have taken, hoping to use that tactic to climb up." Old Sir Xie said with a stern face, revealing the truth.
Ye Ningwan was at a loss for words.
It seemed that after she left yesterday, many things had happened at the banquet.
Xie Mingyu was really unlucky.
Treated like that last night, he understood the situation only vaguely.
Today, after Qiao Yichi’s straightforward words, he realized he wasn’t considered a complete man.
Enraged out of humiliation.
No wonder he not only broke Qiao Yichi’s leg but also wanted Ye Ningwan gone.
"Is there a way to treat it?" Old Sir Xie asked gravely.
Ye Ningwan understood.
No wonder he brought out their Holy Doctor Sect’s keepsake, he was asking her to treat Xie Mingyu.
But...
"I’ve researched it, but... I’m not proficient, and I lack experience in this field. However, I do know someone who specializes in male health issues, known as the master of male-studies. But he’s been reclusive for years, and I don’t know where he is."
"This half keepsake is with me, you help me find that male health master. Treat Yu’er’s secret illness, and I will give you this half jade pendant." Old Sir Xie said.
Ye Ningwan: "..."
"So you took it out only to show me, but not intending to give it to me?"
"Of course."
Old Sir Xie quickly closed the embroidered box, afraid Ye Ningwan might look at it again and lose a piece.
Ye Ningwan was speechless, thinking it was given to her, she was happy for nothing.
"Alright, I will help you find him. But I can’t guarantee when I can find him, you need to give me some time." Ye Ningwan said.
Old Sir Xie eased his stance again, smiling as he said, "Of course, I won’t limit you by time. Our Xie Family has a debt to Zisu, and Miss Ye won’t find the person and not rush them back. I do have that trust in Miss Ye."
Ye Ningwan gave an awkward smile.
Thank you for your trust, and for not forgetting to mention the debt.
"However, I see Miss Ye is also surrounded by dangers. I heard that old lady from the Zhan Family has a strong opinion against Miss Ye, in case Miss Ye faces danger. I will send Wangyue to stay by Miss Ye’s side, you can have her as a companion at any time. Wangyue, apart from being a foodie, has no other fault." Old Sir Xie continued.
This again placed a monitoring around her.
Good, very good.
Ye Ningwan thanked him, "Thank you for your concern, I will happily accept Wangyue."
Wangyue knew she would be going with Ye Ningwan and was thrilled.
Xie Mingyu wanted Ye Ningwan to leave, and she packed her bags and left with Ye Shao on the same day.
"Sis, I want to get a summer job, anyway, scores haven’t come out yet. Even if they do, there’s still two months before school starts, I can earn some money during this time." Ye Shao requested with his backpack.
Ye Ningwan pursed her lips, "With your sister here, do you really need to work to earn money? I’ve already prepared your tuition and living expenses, you don’t have to work so hard."
"I don’t want yours; I can earn my own money." Ye Shao insisted.
Ye Ningwan was frustrated, troublesome kids are indeed challenging.
"Fine, suit yourself, if you want to work, I won’t stop you. You’re already eighteen and can be independent. Call me if you need anything."
"I want to go back to Jiangcheng and work." Ye Shao said again.
Ye Ningwan was irritated, "Why do you want to go back to Jiangcheng?"
"I just want to return to Jiangcheng, I’ve already bought the ticket."
Ye Ningwan was left speechless.
He had everything planned and informed her!
"Whatever."
Angrily, she stuffed a card into his hands, and took Wangyue to the hotel.
"Miss Ye, can I leave for a while?"
Wangyue followed Ye Ningwan to the hotel, and as they entered, she hesitantly asked.
Ye Ningwan raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Wangyue quickly explained, "I want to go see Young Master Yichen, he’s probably very sad right now. He treats me well, and I want to check on him. At the Xie family, I didn’t dare say anything; the young master would break my leg. Miss Ye is so understanding, surely you’ll indulge me!"
"Of course, go ahead! I won’t tell Xie Mingyu." Ye Ningwan smiled and patted her on the shoulder.
Wangyue was delighted and quickly hailed a cab and left.
Ye Ningwan shook her head and headed into the elevator.
Unexpectedly, there was another person inside the elevator.
This man was dressed in a black leather jacket, wearing a baseball cap.
Even in the elevator, he wore sunglasses and a mask; he didn’t look like an ordinary person.
Once inside, Ye Ningwan saw the floor number he pressed, her eyes deepened, and she pressed the number beside it.
Two minutes later.
The elevator door opened.
Ye Ningwan stepped out, while the man inside seemed to have fainted and lay on the ground.
"Wu, there’s a person in the elevator, get him out, please."
Ye Ningwan swiped open Zhan Hanjue’s room and asked Wu to bring out the person.
Wu was shocked, "Madam, who is it?"
"I don’t know," Ye Ningwan said, "he doesn’t seem like someone to trust and ended up on your floor after I knocked him out. Get him over here, wake him and ask him, won’t you know then?"
Wu: "..."
Without knowing his identity, knocking him out already, their Madam sure is dominating.
"How’s Zhan Hanjue?" Ye Ningwan asked again.
Wu said with a poor expression, "Not too well, go in and take a look."
Ye Ningwan frowned and quickly opened the door.
On the bed, the man sat topless.
He held a laptop with both hands, fingers rapidly tapping at the keyboard.
His expression was solemn, his handsome face resembling a Greek deity in seriousness.
Two strong long legs casually stretched out, wearing gray casual trousers.
Making his long legs appear even straighter and more slender.
