Chapter 638 - 640: Are You Ordering Me?
Hearing Qin Yi say this, Nangong Yaoling instinctively glanced at him.
Qin Yi lowered his head somewhat awkwardly.
Nangong Yaoling’s lips curled into a smile, he reached out and patted Qin Yi’s shoulder.
Qin Yi also smiled, though the smile looked rather silly and difficult.
A cold-blooded assassin who rarely smiles, even he would be at a loss when it comes to matters of the heart.
Nangong Yaoling could tell that he really cared about Zhong Li.
As soon as they entered, they saw Nangong Zhongli almost asleep on the sofa.
Upon hearing the noise, she quickly got up and walked over to Nangong Yaoling.
Nangong Yaoling glanced at her, lazily sat down in the armchair, crossed his hands, and frowned, "Are you sick? Your face looks so bad?"
If it weren’t for the sharpness in her eyes, he would have suspected whether this person in front of him was still Nangong Zhongli.
Nangong Zhongli just walked over to the table, looked at Nangong Yaoling, and said, "Brother, did you lock up Shaochen?"
"Who told you that?" Nangong Yaoling seemed unsurprised and raised his eyebrows as he questioned.
Nangong Zhongli said, "Never mind who told me! Nangong Yaoling, it’s bad enough you’ve taken Jiang Xue away from Shaochen, but now you’re even imprisoning him. How could you do this?"
Nangong Yaoling’s expression darkened.
"Zhong Li, this issue can’t be explained in just a few words! Go back first, you don’t need to worry about this anymore."
"Nangong Yaoling!" Zhong Li slammed the table, "You must release Shaochen immediately."
"Are you ordering me?" Nangong Yaoling asked coldly.
Zhong Li saw he was angry, a flicker of fear flashed in her eyes.
After all, Nangong Yaoling was her eldest brother, she rarely defied him this way.
But this matter involved Shaochen, she couldn’t just ignore it.
She showed a bit of pleading on her face, walked forward, and pulled Nangong Yaoling’s arm, "Brother... please release him. For my sake at least..."
"But does he have feelings for you?" Nangong Yaoling asked impatiently.
Nangong Zhongli said, "No matter what, he is my future fiancé, I can’t just stand by! Brother, believe me, one day I will make him fall in love with me!"
Nangong Yaoling was very annoyed, why did all the women around him ask him to release Liang Shaochen?
Both Xia Xiaonuan and Nangong Zhongli were like this.
That kid Liang Shaochen, he was really lucky with women!
"Alright, when the time is right, I will naturally release him. Zhong Li, look at yourself, is it worth it for a man who doesn’t love you?"
Nangong Zhongli bit her lower lip, seeing that Nangong Yaoling was unresponsive to both firmness and negotiation, refusing to release him.
She gritted her teeth, "What I become is my own business, anyway, you don’t care about me as a sister!" After saying this, Nangong Zhongli turned and left angrily.
Qin Yi stood by the window in the hallway smoking, when Nangong Zhongli walked past him, he quickly put out the cigarette, stood in front of her and said, "Miss Zhong Li, are you not feeling well? You should go see a doctor."
Nangong Zhongli glared at him, "Get out of the way!"
Qin Yi said, "If Miss Zhong Li needs anything, please let me know any time."
"No need!" Nangong Zhongli sidestepped him and walked away.
However, after a few steps, her pace slowed down.
Right...
Since Nangong Yaoling wouldn’t help her, then... she could turn to Qin Yi.
After all, Nangong Yaoling’s men also listened to Qin Yi.
