Doting on the Masked Wife

Ning Tonger watched the earl step down with one foot, his black riding boots splashed in the rain, his tall and straight figure did not look seriously ill at all.

He walked over and looked at Ning Tong'er very tenderly: "Isn't it raining?"

Ning Tonger quickly shook her head.

If you look carefully at the Earl's handsome face, you can see the traces left by the years, but it is still so noble, arrogant, and aggressive.

He nodded.

Reaching out to take the umbrella from the manager's hand, he actually held the umbrella for Ning Tong'er himself.

"Go, go home."

go home……

Ning Tonger was stunned for a moment, and quickly followed, while the manager on the other side was already stunned.

He had been with the Earl all his life, and he had only seen this once—the Earl held an umbrella for someone else.

Ning Tong'er did not expect the earl to be so kind to her, so nice that she had a faint feeling: he regarded her as a certain person, or a certain identity, and wanted to love her as much as possible.

Is this a kind of compensation?

Ning Tonger secretly thought in her heart, and occasionally raised her eyes to look at the Earl who was holding the umbrella for her. The feeling she couldn't express in her heart was that she felt very, very uncomfortable, very, very sour.

The Earl... is actually a poor man?

She sighed inwardly.

When they returned to the main hall of the castle, they saw that the luxurious and luxurious Baroque style made the hall shine. The expensive paintings of the Middle Ages were randomly hung on the walls woven with gold silk tapestries, all of which revealed the owner of the castle. Incalculable wealth and status.

The Earl took the lead in walking on the cashmere carpet, and after taking two steps, he turned around and said, "My child, come with me."

He called her child.

Ning Tonger was extremely shocked.

She is Murong Lie's fiancée, there is nothing particularly strange about the Earl calling her that, but she just has a strong feeling - the Earl really regards her as his child.

Or to say: Actually, did he regard her as his and Murong Yu'er's child?

Perhaps, it was for this reason that he looked at her so tenderly, with such loving eyes.

It's just because he has already regarded her as his daughter, the daughter of him and Murong Yu'er.

Is this... a kind of compensation for the past?

Ning Tong'er had mixed feelings in her heart.

The earl is undoubtedly hateful, he is a perpetrator, and he has hurt many people.

However, he is also a poor man.

Especially in front of Ning Tonger, seeing him like this, Ning Tonger couldn't connect him with the man Murong Yuer hated.

She was very emotional: If he had treated Murong Yu'er like this from the beginning, would things have turned around?

Could there be another ending to this tale of mutual loss?

No one knows, maybe this is the arrangement of fate.

Ning Tonger followed the earl to the second floor, and the earl led her all the way to the study.

Fortunately, this time there is not such a strong smell of alcohol, and the wine bottles have been cleaned up long ago.

The Earl walked to the desk, opened the drawer with a delicate golden key, and then took out a box for Ning Tong'er.

"You take this." He gave the box to Ning Tonger as if he was giving a small gadget.

Ning Tong'er raised her eyes to look at the Earl in puzzlement, then gently opened the box, but was immediately stunned.

It turned out to be the house deed, the equity transfer agreement, and the password of the bank safe.

Ning Tonger was taken aback, and hurriedly returned the priceless box to the earl.

The count frowned: "Why? Don't you like it?"

He thought about it seriously, and said, "If you think you can't handle these things, it's okay, there are dedicated people to take care of them, so you don't need to bother."

Ning Tonger quickly waved her hand: "No, no, Lord Earl, how can I accept such a valuable thing from you?"

However, the Earl frowned even more intensely, which was exactly the same as Murong Lie's: "Do you think these things are too vulgar?"

He thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow I will have someone prepare a helicopter, and we will fly directly to the place you want to go. I will buy it for you whichever island you like."

If others heard this, there would be ambiguity, but Ning Tong'er understood it all at once.

"Lord Count..."

"Call me father," said the count unhappily, "didn't you tell me not to call me the count?"

Ning Tonger opened her mouth: "Father..."

Only then did the earl have a smile on his face, and his handsome face became very gentle again. He looked at Ning Tong'er lovingly, and put the box back in her hand.

"You take this too, just treat it as a toy for leisure, and it will always keep you well fed and well-fed."

Ning Tong'er tried hard to think about the words, and finally said slowly: "Father...you, have you always wanted to make up for..."

The count's face stiffened instantly.

Ning Tonger looked at him cautiously, and found that his face was hard, as if he was stunned, but there was no sign of anger, so she mustered up her courage and continued: "Father, actually, you regarded me as your Is it the daughter of Murong Yu'er? Because I look like her, you think in your heart that I was born by her, that I am your child..."

That's why the child's cry was so natural.

Instead, he turned a blind eye to Murong Lie.

He really had an illusion in the dark, thinking that Ning Tong'er was his daughter.

The earl suddenly raised his head, for some reason, Ning Tong'er had a sore nose - the handsome middle-aged man in front of him was a noble earl, proud, cold, and condescending.

However, the moment he raised his eyes, Ning Tong'er saw that his blue eyes were full of confusion, like a child whose secret was discovered and who was at a loss.

At this moment, all the vigor and all the arrogance are gone.

She felt very uncomfortable in her heart, she thought of her father Ning Ruhai, and also thought of another person who loved her very much: Han Qingyi.

She said softly, "Father, if you feel better about this, consider me your daughter!"

The Earl looked at her, and suddenly turned his back.

His upright, vigorous figure was trembling slightly at this moment, like a fallen leaf in a strong wind.

He had never been so tired and haggard.

After a long time, Ning Tong'er stood there when she heard a very hoarse and heavy voice.

"I thought, I'm really old, otherwise I wouldn't be like this."

he spoke slowly.

When Ning Tonger heard these words, unconsciously, she felt very, very sad, so sad that she had the urge to cry.

For whom is it a pity and for whom is it sad?

It's for Murong Yu'er.

It's for Uncle Lin.

It is for the Earl.

Maybe, it's all...

** In the afternoon, after Murong Lie, who was worried about Ning Tonger, called Qi Ruosang, Qi Ruosang, who was in love with that handsome painter, faltered in fright, and finally confessed to Murong Lie honestly.

Knowing the truth, Murong Lie was furious, scolded Qi Ruosang for his negligence on the phone, hung up the phone, and drove straight to the castle.

Along the way, he kept calling the castle, but no one answered the phone, and he didn't know where the manager went, where the maids and servants went.

Murong Lie didn't know that Ning Tong'er, that naughty guy, organized some kind of football game at this time, and organized all the people in the castle together to let them play football there. The steward sits aside and acts as a referee.

As for herself, she was watching the game with the earl.

The Earl has never done such a boring thing in his life, but at this moment he seems to be very interested.

It's like he would allow someone to mess around like this, and play some kid's ball game in the century-old Edson Castle.

Perhaps, as long as Ning Tonger is happy, he will allow it.

And she will let her mess around as she likes.

Of course, Ning Tong'er knew the real reason in her heart - it was a father's doting on his daughter like making up for it, to the point where he lost his principles, unlike him before.

But this is not the same thing in the eyes of others.

Some people have secretly started talking about it: this little girl from the east is really amazing, she fascinated the young master who is the son, and she also fascinated the count who is the father. She is so gentle and doting!

Don't say it's because she is his daughter-in-law, who doesn't know that the Earl is not good to his two sons: Master Mark, and the newly recognized Master Murong Lie who will become the next Earl Edson look!

He is just so special to Miss Ning Tong'er alone!

Yes, yes, they are talking behind their backs, so this little girl from the east is really powerful, she has a lot of tricks...

Maybe all the women in the East have such powerful means?Legend has it that many women in the East know witchcraft!

Really?Why can't I see it?Miss Tonger looks so innocent and cute.

That's the surface, haven't you heard of it?The deeds of Oriental women.

what?

I heard that the mother of Young Master Murong Lie was also an oriental beauty. She fell from the sky, and I don't know where she came from. The Earl fell in love with her at first sight, and even doted on her for many years. The countess didn't pay attention to her, and she didn't even go to her room. Later, I heard that...

Hush!You dare to say this, don't you know that this is a taboo in the castle?You want to die don't you?

That's right, even if you are lucky, if the manager and his wife didn't hear it, please forgive me, if the Earl hears it, it will be even worse for you.

Hmph, no, this is not the worst.

What, isn't this the worst?Is there anything more serious?

So you are a fool, haven't you heard the reason why Master Mark killed people?

Oh, my God, my God, do you mean that perverted murderer, Master Mark...

It's him, if you let him hear what you just said, maybe you will be the next one to die at his hands!
