Chapter 294 - 296 【296】Think I’m Not Tough Enough? 2
"Oh? So you think I’m not strong enough?" Nangong Yaoling squinted at her, deliberately raising his voice to ask.
Xia Xiaonuan: ...
"Or maybe, you want me to be even stronger?"
Xia Xiaonuan almost wanted to throw the tea set at Nangong Yaoling’s handsome face!
Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia, standing opposite, both looked a bit uneasy.
Xia Xinmei had a smile on her lips, without any special expression on her face.
"Xiaonuan, the Young Master is already very strong. As a girl, you should be more gentle." Mrs. Xia saw the situation and quickly stepped forward to mediate.
Xia Xiaonuan looked at her mother’s firm gaze, her face darkened...
Nangong Yaoling: ...
Mrs. Xia did not understand at all what Nangong Yaoling meant.
Mr. Xia, standing beside, seemed to have understood. He awkwardly glanced at Mrs. Xia: "Fengjun..." he called softly.
Mrs. Xia was slightly taken aback. Seeing Mr. Xia’s look, she instantly understood something.
Her old face blushed immediately.
Looking at Nangong Yaoling and Xia Xiaonuan, she said, "Ah... I... I mean, look at our Xiaonuan’s rosy complexion these days. You can tell that the Young Master is indeed very strong..."
"Fengjun..." Mr. Xia gritted his teeth.
"Mom... please, stop talking..." Xia Xiaonuan held her forehead with her hand. Her rosy complexion? It was because she was angry at Nangong Yaoling! To actually say in front of everyone that her complexion was good because of Nangong Yaoling... Oh my god, is this really her biological mother?
Nangong Yaoling looked at Xia Xiaonuan, rarely showing a hint of a smile on his face.
"You’re right, Xiaonuan indeed has a pretty good complexion lately..." Nangong Yaoling said a bit proudly, reaching out to pinch Xia Xiaonuan’s cheek.
Xia Xiaonuan’s face was pinched out of shape again, she glared at Nangong Yaoling fiercely: "Nangong Yaoling, will you ever stop?"
This guy just reprimanded her mother for giving her medicine last time, and now, the two of them seem to have reached a consensus to gang up on her!
And that Xia Xinmei, she must be doing it on purpose too!
Sweat, what kind of people are around her!
Nangong Yaoling looked at Xia Xiaonuan, who was both embarrassed and annoyed, his eyes filled with complicated and interesting expressions.
Suddenly, he stood up.
"Young Master... are you... leaving?" Xia Zhennan asked nervously.
"Yes..." Mrs. Xia said, "Have something to eat before you go..."
"No need, it’s getting late. We won’t disturb Mom and Dad’s rest." Nangong Yaoling smiled politely, stood up, stretched his long legs, and walked towards the door.
The butler at the door immediately stepped forward, ready to open the door for him.
After a few steps, Nangong Yaoling suddenly stopped, turned around.
He looked at Xia Xiaonuan, who was still sitting on the sofa sulking.
"Xia Xiaonuan..."
Called by Nangong Yaoling, Xia Xiaonuan had no choice but to get up reluctantly: "Dad... Mom... Sis, I’m leaving."
"Xiaonuan, take good care of yourself. You and the Young Master should come back often to see Mom and Dad." Xia Xinmei held Xiaonuan’s hand and said.
Xia Xiaonuan nodded.
Mrs. Xia wanted to say a few more words, but seeing Nangong Yaoling’s gaze, she quickly pushed Xiaonuan out: "Go quickly, don’t keep the Young Master waiting!"
"Alright..." Xia Xiaonuan was speechless, having no choice but to follow along.
The Xia family sent Xia Xiaonuan and Nangong Yaoling to the door. Xia Xiaonuan saw Yun standing there and quickly said to Mrs. Xia, "Mom... Yun hasn’t come back for a long time. How about letting her stay at home for a night?"
Yun looked gratefully at Xiaonuan.
