Chapter 710: Thanks to Her Father
Nangong Lengyu held her back and smiled at her. In a hoa.r.s.e voice, she said, “What are you panicking for? I’m fine. I won’t die.”
Ling Sheng reached out nervously to touch her forehead and feel her temperature. She did not have a fever. Her heart ached as she looked at her and asked, “Do you still feel unwell?”
Nangong Lengyu shook her head and looked at her before saying, “I heard that you live with your uncle. Does he know that you came?”
Ling Sheng told the truth. If her father found out, he would definitely have a very scary reaction. She shivered suddenly. “How could I let him know? He’d skin me alive!”
Upon seeing her scared look, Nangong Lengyu said, “Go back then. I’ll call someone else.”
“I’ll keep an eye on you. I don’t have much to do these days anyway.” Ling Sheng got up to pour her a gla.s.s of warm water and gave her two mouthfuls to moisten her lips and throat.
“You said something happened. Has that matter been resolved?” Nangong Lengyu only remembered that before she’d fainted from the pain, Ling Sheng had sent her a message, saying that she could not come over to eat with her. After replying, she had completely lost consciousness. She did not know what kind of trouble she had encountered.
“Yes, it’s been resolved.” Ling Sheng knew that she had not eaten dinner. “Sister Yu, wait here. I’ll go down and buy you some porridge.”
Nangong Lengyu was not hungry, but she did not listen to her. She even said that she was hungry herself. She put on a coat and went out to buy porridge.
Below the hospital was a 24-hour restaurant. She bought porridge, steamed buns, and some barbecue there.
Nangong Lengyu smiled lovingly when she saw the young lady eating skewers happily. Alright, she was really hungry. She took a sip of porridge and said, “He won’t let you eat at home?”
Ling Sheng shook her head. She would definitely not say anything bad about him. Besides, she wanted to give Sister Yu a good impression of her father, but she really could not think of anything good about him. “No, I eat plenty.”
Before she had met Sister Yu, she had actually been looking forward to seeing the two of them reconcile. However, ever since she had met Sister Yu, their relationship had become increasingly closer. She suddenly felt that it would be better if they did not. Her father was not worthy of her. It would be better if he did not harm her. Sister Yu deserved better.
Nangong Lengyu knew that she had always been able to eat a lot. However, she had not expected that, as a female celebrity, she would dare eat skewers in the middle of the night. Despite this, she had not gained any weight. Her physique was really good. Just like when she had been young, she would not gain weight just by eating.
Ling Sheng wanted to ask her why she was so angry. Had someone angered her? Also, why had her stomach disease suddenly acted up? However, she swallowed the questions in the end and did not ask them. It was better not to interfere in other people’s private affairs.
Before the duo could finish eating, someone pushed the door open and asked anxiously, “Sister Yu, are you alright? That sc.u.mbag Huo Ci…”
Then…
She was speechless.
Ling Sheng turned around and saw her Fifth Uncle running over, still panting.
The duo stared at each other for a moment before she broke the silence first. She waved her hand and greeted him with a sweet smile. “Fifth Uncle.”
Why was her Fifth Uncle here?
How had he known that Sister Yu was there?
Why had he called Huo Ci a sc.u.mbag?
She felt that she ought to know, but she also felt that it was better not to know. She stole a look at the pale beauty beside her. Could Sister Yu’s anger and stomach cramps have been caused by her father?
Things seemed a little complicated!
