Chapter 144 - Sympathy"Miss, be careful. This is a Rainbow Lotus. If you touch it with your hands, your hands will be crippled." The man"s voice was very pleasant to hear, like a raindrop falling in the early spring, slowly nourishing her heart.
Was it him? Wei Yuanwei remembered this man, this man who had supported him before.
Wei Yuanwei took another glance at the gorgeous and colorful Lotus of Life. "The more beautiful something is, the more it hides a lethal poison."
Just like Ning Zheyan, Wei Yuanwei really wanted to see the breathless Ning Zheyan on the bed. He must be beautiful to the point of being like Xi Shi, weak like Lin Daiyu and yet enough to arouse pity in other people. Just thinking about Ning Zheyan"s viciousness caused Wei Yuanwei to give up that thought, as she was the main culprit behind his illness, Wei Yuanwei decided to come knocking on her door right now to seek her own death.
The man seemed to have noticed that Wei Yuanwei was interested in the flowers and plants, and explained their names to her. The breeze carried the sweetness of the flowers and the man"s deep and gentle voice beside his ears, causing Wei Yuanwei"s heart to move: "What is your name?"
The man was stunned for a moment before the knot between his brows loosened. He stood with his hands behind his back, and spoke with a pleasant voice that was like a spring breeze blowing against a person"s heart, "Ning Zhizhan." Not in vain did the people call on the guests, the blue chiffon cabinet to protect Aphrodite.
His voice was very gentle, like the clouds in the sky being blown away by the wind.
"Is it the Heart of Tranquil Water, or is it Shanda Zhilan"s Master?" Wei Yuanwei smiled, his beautiful eyes curved into a curve.
"The word that a lady likes is the word." He just smiled.
Ning Zai seemed to have some complaints about this man. She stepped forward to shield Wei Yuanwei behind his, and gouged out Ning Zhiqiang with his fierce eyes, "Work hard now, if this young master finds out, he"ll do as you say!"
Ning Zhiqiang only smiled slightly and squatted down to do things. However, he took the chance when Ning Zai wasn"t paying attention to blink at Wei Yuanwei a few times.
Wei Yuanwei quietly looked at Ning Zhizi"s figure, she felt that this man had something he wanted to say to her.
"Ning Zai, I"m a little thirsty. Yesterday, drinking some you made for me personally, it tasted pretty good. Go cook some for me." Wei Yuanwei indifferently swept his gaze across Ning Zai"s face.
She was only monitoring her under the orders of her young master, so why did she become her servant?
Ning Zai was not convinced: "If Miss is thirsty, I will accompany you to drink tea. Master has instructed me to not leave Miss"s side, I am only thinking for her safety, after all the flowers and plants in the courtyard are poisonous, and the poisonous snakes that are hibernating between the flowers and plants might awaken, only then would Miss truly be unable to cry."
"Ning Zai, if I remember correctly, you were also present when the Poison Python used its fangs to tear Miss Ning Qing apart and swallowed her into its stomach. It was just a few days of effort and you had already forgotten about it. Or could it be that Miss Ning Zai wants to experience it personally? " Wei Yuanwei laughed brilliantly like a flower, his bright eyes and white teeth turning even more dazzling because of his smile.
Ning Zai"s face instantly turned pale and his shoulders trembled uncontrollably. She bit his lips and said in a trembling voice, "Miss, please wait for a moment. Ning Zai will go right away."
"I want to go ahead and have a look. Follow me." Wei Yuanwei casually pointed with her white hands and landed on Ning Zhizi"s body.
Everyone knew that Wei Yuanwei was an esteemed guest of the Master Ning, so they naturally did not say anything. They only looked enviously at Ning Zhizi"s face, but this fellow actually had the honor of accompanying a beautiful woman around the garden after coming here for a few days.
As the two walked forward, Wei Yuanwei suddenly stopped in her tracks, and Ning Zhiqiang stopped behind her.
She slowly turned around to look at him with a warm smile on her face. The warm sunlight shone down on his jade-like face, adding a little more brilliance to it.
Behind him was a purple Hibiscus Mutabilis that was blooming. The petals landed on his spotless clothes and on his sleek black hair. It made people want to step forward and wipe it off for him.
Wei Yuanwei forcefully repressed his impulse, and she couldn"t help but exclaim in shock. Ning Zhiqiang possessed this kind of demonic power that could turn flowers into background, making her beauty completely different from Ning Zheyan"s. If the two were compared in terms of prosperity, then Ning Zhiqiang was like a n.o.ble, pure Yulan branch quietly blooming, while Ning Zheyan was like an enchanting mana pearl sandflower wantonly blooming in the open.
"What is your purpose for hibernating at Misty Rain Villa?" Wei Yuanwei"s eyes carried a sharp, cold gaze that shot towards Ning Zhizi. From the very beginning, she had felt that this man"s gaze was always following his, he did not think that he had this kind of magic that could instantly enchant a man to the point that she was captivated.
"Why does the girl say that? What if I"m only interested in girls? " Ning Zhiqiang raised his hand to stroke the hibiscus flowers on the branch. The half-bloomed hibiscus flowers covered his jade-like face, and the purple petals intertwined with his fair complexion, causing him to appear rather breathtaking.
He suddenly took off the hibiscus flower and put it into Wei Yuanwei"s bun with a smile. "Oh, it"s very beautiful."
She calmed down a little and continued: "Your palm is slightly thick, and the men and women of Yanyu Manor are just like Ning Zheyan, who only eat fine food and do fine work, how can there be a coc.o.o.n on your hand? It"s obvious that you snuck in here. Furthermore, when you were introducing the plants, you did not go through all the details, but only played it lightly, which meant that you had just arrived, and that your eyes had landed on me the moment I appeared, which meant that I might be your target, but I just do not know if it was Evil King who sent you to save me, or the Princess Xi Ya who sent you to kill me? "
There were no ripples in Ning Zhiqiang"s eyes. The corners of his lips slightly raised, and his deep and melodious voice rang out, "What did this lady used to do? A composer or a singer? Or a storyteller? "I admire the girl"s talents. This watertight reasoning is much better than the old cliché stories of the Peony Pavilion and the West Side."
Wei Yuanwei"s eyes revealed a trace of anger. Although she was not an ancient person, she knew that playwrights and storytellers were lowly people in the underworld. Was he trying to beat around the bush by scolding his?
"Miss, please do not be angry. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me." Ning Zhiqiang"s eyes were filled with a smile.
Forget it, I"ll forgive you since you"re so handsome. Wei Yuanwei rolled his eyes slightly.
"Actually, my goal is the same as the lady"s, to escape together. I was also unintentionally captured by the people from Yanyu Manor." Ning Xi lowered his eyes and said softly.
His eyelashes were very slender and thick, and under the shining of the sunlight, it cast a mottled shadow, causing Wei Yuanwei"s heart to feel some sympathy and sympathy for him.
