Chapter 95

Therefore, the third wife of the Luo family only reminded her not to lose her temper in public or important occasions.

At this funeral, he persuaded many times and agreed to buy all the new summer models of well-known foreign brands.

How could this happen?

The third master of the Luo family glared at Luo Leyao resentfully.

The Luo family's uncle added fuel to the fire, "Not only that, but you even dared to cause trouble in Zhou Heng's funeral hall. This is extremely disrespectful to him!"

"This is a big deal for Zhou Heng. This situation has actually occurred. Third brother, I have told you many times that Le Yao has a rude temper and asked you to discipline her more. Now that she has you to protect her, she will have to learn a lot of lessons when she grows up."

It sounds like he is giving good advice, but he is actually trying to put all the blame on the third wife.

The third master of the Luo family was used to his rhetoric.

He nodded humbly and admitted his fault: "It is indeed my fault for not disciplining my child well. What Big Brother said is right."

I felt contempt in my heart: Knowing that it was a big deal for Luo Zhouheng, why did he drag it on for so long? Who is disrespecting the dead?

But since Luo Leyao had exposed the matter to everyone, it was indeed not going to end well.

He tilted his head and looked down at Luo Leyao.

"You still have the nerve to stay here?"

"Go back to your room and reflect on your actions immediately. Don't come out without my permission!"

Luo Leyao couldn't stop crying.

Her father's powerful roar echoed in her mind over and over again, completely shattering her already sensitive heart.

She stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do except cry.

But the old man of the Luo family wanted the right to organize the funeral out of selfish motives. He told the public who was the boss of the entire Luo family, and this has attracted many partners.

It would be difficult for the other two families to profit from it, and with Luo Leyao making such a fuss, it was even more impossible for their family.

Mrs. Luo San had a worried look on her face. If things continued like this, it would have a bad impact, so she called out to Luo Jingcheng.

"Help me get Le Yao into the room."

Seeing Luo Leyao being dragged away by two people, Master Luo San felt so embarrassed that he said angrily, "I will also deduct your pocket money for the past two months!"

But Luo Leyao's ears were filled with countless noises and she couldn't hear what he said at all.

Mr. Luo turned around and looked at Ning Ruchu with an apologetic look.

"Ruochu, I'm so sorry."

Ning Ruochu smiled slightly, "It's okay, Le Yao has always been impatient, I'm used to it."

In the face of the unknown, fear spreads quickly.

She quickly found the switch, and when she saw the creature on the bedside table, she couldn't help screaming.

"what--!!"

Ning Tinglian got out of bed in a panic, but accidentally stepped on the quilt, was thrown down, and hit her head on the bed.

My head was dizzy and there was severe pain.

But she didn't care about anything and ran out the door desperately, shouting, "There's a snake!!"

The villa was well soundproofed, and only the servant on duty heard her screams and hurriedly called special personnel.

After something like this happened, Yeyue naturally couldn't sleep well.

She went in with the special personnel, and the snake disappeared somewhere unknown.

"Close the door and conduct a carpet search." Yeyue ordered in a deep voice.

It took a while to find the snake.

It appears to be a deep black, but when slightly deflected, it reflects pearlescent light.

Yeyue was impressed by it.

A pair of eyes became increasingly deep, with mist lingering between them and a chill exuding coldness.

Ning Tinglian sat in the living room downstairs in fear, with the servants comforting her. She was extremely frightened.

Hearing some noise upstairs, he shook violently and looked upwards in horror.

Seeing that it was the staff of the villa, he breathed a sigh of relief, but his nerves were still tense.

A pair of hands were entangled tightly together, and they were terribly scared.

"Why...why is there a snake...a snake in the villa?"

She couldn't figure it out.

Pearl Island is a land reclamation project and the species on the island are artificially defined. How could such a terrifying creature appear?

Yeyue looked straight ahead, not even giving a glance.

"It's the lady's pet."

She turned around and instructed the staff behind her.

"Put it away first, and send it back when Madam wakes up."

The voice softened a bit.

So, all this is because of Ning Ruchu?

Ning Tinglian's eyes suddenly became fierce, and her clasped hands clenched tightly, leaving pink marks on the back of her hands.

The air was suddenly filled with a malicious atmosphere. Yeyue tilted her head and glanced at Ning Tinglian, who was sitting on the sofa, trembling.

He was shaking like this, he was scared and angry.

After this incident, Ning Tinglian couldn't sleep anymore and strongly requested to change rooms.

But the servants refused, saying that the keys were with the housekeeper and they couldn't open other rooms.

How could Ning Tinglian possibly live in a room where snakes had appeared?
As soon as you get close, you will feel extremely strong fear and panic in your heart.

She couldn't stand it anymore, and she didn't want to go back there even if it meant missing a night's sleep.

But in the second half of the night, the servants somehow all went to rest.

Before leaving, he said to her, "Miss Ning, my wife has always been frugal, and the lights in the living room are always turned off at this time."

Ning Ruchu was frightened to the point of being extremely nervous. She sat on the sofa in a daze and helpless. Before she could react, the lights were turned off.

She screamed again.

This time, no one responded.

It was not until the morning when the servants got up and started working that Ning Tinglian felt a little comforted.

But after a night, she felt a little nervous.

The servants were busy walking past her. Ning Tinglian felt indescribably restless and empty inside, which she could only fill by shrinking her body.

"Miss Ning."

A maid beside her called softly, and Ning Tinglian's tense nerves seemed to be attacked by the voice and completely collapsed.

He stood up suddenly and looked at the person coming warily.

The maid was also frightened by her reaction. She was stunned for a moment and smiled awkwardly: "I need to clean the sofa. Please make way."

Ning Tinglian shivered and sat on the other side, but was driven away again by the maid who was mopping the floor.

Wherever she went, someone would quickly come and shoo her to the other side.

Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, her eyes were red with grievance, and she made a slight whimpering sound.

From childhood to adulthood, when has she ever suffered such injustice?
Its body swayed, as if a flower grown in a greenhouse was suddenly exposed to wind and rain and could be easily destroyed.

Finally, Butler Chen couldn't stand it anymore and came over.

"Ms. Ning, the speedboat is already open. I'll have someone take you back."

Ning Tinglian didn't know what to do. Butler Chen's words seemed to give her hope. She nodded repeatedly, her voice trembling as she said very weakly, "Okay."

Sister Lin came over, looked at her from behind, and said to Butler Chen in a dissatisfied tone: "Why did you let her go back so soon?"

"I heard that Miss Ning has a mental illness. I don't know if it's true or not, so we should be more cautious. If something really happens, it will have a bad impact on Madam." Butler Chen explained. Sister Lin thought about it and felt that it made sense.

She sighed, "Poor madam, you are still immersed in grief after your husband left, and you have to suffer such great criticism."

Butler Chen sighed and shook his head repeatedly: "Our wife is also a miserable person."

……

Sitting on the speedboat heading to the mainland, feeling the sea breeze, Ning Tinglian gradually regained consciousness.

Those servants simply wanted to drive her away!
Ning Tinglian felt resentful, but could do nothing about it.

Until now, she still doesn't understand why Luo Zhouheng chose Ning Ruchu instead of her, who was trained since childhood and had outstanding talents!
……

At 8:30 in the morning, Ning Ruchu came down on time to have breakfast.

Looking up, Ning Tinglian lowered her head slightly and remained silent. She must have been frightened.

He took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.

"Your mother is not in good condition. Send her back to the bedroom first. I'll ask the doctor to come and take a look."

"Yeah." Ning Tinglian responded softly, holding Madam Ning's arm, "Mom, I'll help you back to your room."

When Mrs. Ning heard Ning Tinglian's voice, a light flashed in her eyes. She looked quite well-behaved when she was led away by her.

When she came out, Ning Tinglian saw Ning Xiangchen enter the study.

The hands hanging at his sides clenched again.

Although Ning Ruchu does not have real power, he definitely has a say.

After such a commotion, measures will definitely be taken against their family.

Even if she herself may bear moral condemnation, so what?
The Luo family far surpasses the Ning family in both reputation and prestige.

No matter what they do, they can't win.

After the farce was over, Ning Tinglian's brain calmed down and her thoughts became clear instantly.

In her impression, Ning Ruchu has always been a flattering character.

Her flattery is engraved in her bones and has become part of her body's memory and habit.

Therefore, Ning Tinglian was sure that she would follow their instructions and let the Ning family and the Luo family cooperate.

Unexpectedly, she would act out of character and quarrel with her parents.

Sharp words, calm attitude, and arrogant eyes.

Is that really Ning Ruchu?

Ning Tinglian found it incredible.

Thinking of Ning Ruchu's eyes before she left, she still feels scared.

She couldn't imagine that Ning Ruchu had done all this on purpose.

Ning Tinglian suddenly realized that she didn't understand this "sister" at all.

……

Pearl Villa.

When Mrs. Lin and a few servants brought the food into the bedroom, Ning Ruchu was lying on the bed with her face covered, sobbing slightly from time to time.

I want to cry, but I don’t dare to.

The servants felt sorry for her but didn't dare to say anything.

"Madam, the food has been placed in the small dining room. You are not in good health, so remember to eat and don't starve yourself."

Mrs. Lin looked at the figure on the bed with lingering eyes, sighed heavily, and closed the door.

Although they are both majoring in painting, Sheng Qianwei specializes in oil painting and was not among the invited guests. She came here to accompany Jiang Lingxue.

Jiang Lingxue looked around and whispered, "Many well-known people in the industry are here today. You can make more friends with them."

The An family has been established for hundreds of years, and their ancestors once served as important officials around the emperor. They have a rich family background and many famous paintings.

Moreover, the calligraphy and paintings are private collections and have never been exhibited to the public, attracting many famous Chinese painting and calligraphy masters.

"Lingxue." Someone called her not far away. It was her mentor, Master Wei Zhu.

Jiang Lingxue said apologetically: "Sorry, Qianwei, my instructor wants to take me to negotiate, you can go shopping by yourself first."

Sheng Qianwei nodded: "Well, go ahead, I can do it myself."

This was the first time that the An family had organized a public event. The gallery was not very large and one could see the end at a glance. There were not many paintings and calligraphy on display.

Therefore, after seeing the familiar figure, Sheng Qianwei's pupils suddenly contracted. She suspected that she was dazzled, and she could not convince herself that the person was Ning Ruchu.

As early as three years ago, when she was gossiping among her friends in the circle, she heard that the Ning family had found a real daughter.

At that time they didn't care and were just chatting casually.

Because the Ning family is just a medium-sized wealthy family in Beijing, they don’t take people from the top circles seriously at all.

Later, when he heard the rumors about Ning Ruchu, he just complained a few words and didn't take them to heart at all.

Two years ago, news suddenly came out that she and Luo Zhouheng were getting married, and Sheng Qianwei panicked.

Realizing that he could not let things go on, he sent people to investigate Ning Ruchu, but found out that she was just a country bumpkin. He felt even more upset and very unbalanced.

He was even so excited that he went to confront Luo Zhouheng in person, but ended up parting on bad terms.

After Luo Zhouheng passed away, Sheng Qianwei finally had the courage to return to China.

As long as Ning Ruchu holds the title of Mrs. Luo, she will be dissatisfied.

In her eyes, Ning Ruchu has always been a vase that depends on others and a good-for-nothing waste.

And now, not only has she inherited the entire Luo family, she has even established a cooperative relationship with the Dong family, the only family in China that can compete with the Luo family.

Sheng Qianwei originally didn't believe the rumors on the Internet. She was sure that Ning Ruchu didn't have that ability, until Dong Qingran personally said that she was her good friend.

This made Sheng Qianwei feel panic.

She took a deep breath, maintained a gentle and polite smile, and walked forward to greet him.

"I didn't expect Mrs. Luo to come too. The news a few days ago made me very worried about you." Sheng Qianwei looked worried and found it difficult to speak, "Are you... okay?"

When he saw her, Ran Yunqing was stunned. He took two steps away with disgust, lowered his eyes, and stared at her injured calf.

The long skirt covered the wound, and the hideous scar could not be seen.

Ran Yunqing looked at him with disdain and turned his head away.

Compared to her obvious dissatisfaction, Ning Ruchu was very natural.

She curled her lips stiffly, but her face looked bitter.

"Thank you for your concern, Miss Sheng. I'm fine."

Sheng Qianwei lowered her brows and said in relief: "So many things have happened during this period, you must be feeling bad. Zhou Heng and I have known each other since childhood. If you have time, Mrs. Luo, you can come and chat with me."

To Ning Ruchu, the words of comfort sounded more like showing off and asserting sovereignty.

It’s a pity that since they got married, the sovereignty has always been in her hands.

She shook her head. "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Sheng, but no thanks. Ah Heng just passed away and left everything to me. It's hard for me to have free time."

Behind me, there was a laugh, but it was immediately suppressed.

Ran Yunqing pursed her lips and tried to hold back her smile. No one knew Ning Ruchu's situation better than her.

Yesterday she gained some weight, so in order not to arouse suspicion, she was asked to have an acupuncture injection to reduce fat.

Sheng Qianwei was attracted and looked towards her.

She was curious from the beginning, and now she asked: "Excuse me, who is this..."

As far as she knew, Ning Ruchu didn't have many friends in the capital, and those self-righteous young men from wealthy families would feel disgusted when they heard her name.

Because she was not a lady from a wealthy family and she married into a good family.

Only Dong Qingran, who had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place, would become friends with her.
