Nangong Minglu lay lazily in Ling Haotian's arms like a kitten, pouting her lips and asking, "Why did you come to see me so late?"
"I'm sorry! I have a lot to do!"
Ling Haotian changed his position so that Nangong Minglu could lie in his arms more comfortably.
"Is there anything more important than me?" Nangong Minglu's tone was sour.
Ling Haotian smiled.
He gently stroked Nangong Minglu's hair and said softly: "I need to find out why Xu Muyang wants to harm you so that I can better protect you, right?"
His fingers gently brushed the remaining finger marks on Nangong Minglu's face.
The fingerprints were no longer bright, but his heart still ached a little.
His heart was trembling, and he swore that he would never let her be hurt like this again!
"Is this difficult to understand?" Nangong Minglu raised her little face and looked at him. Her bright eyes suddenly dimmed when she saw him, "Because Han Xiyan is his master! That's why he wants to help Han Xiyan harm me!"
Nangong Minglu was a little sad!
Xu Muyang, who is so sunny, Xu Muyang, who protects her so much, is actually just a disguise to deceive her...
"But -, didn't you notice? Xu Muyang wanted to harm Han Xiyan as well! He called the police and wanted to catch Han Xiyan harming you." Ling Haotian's face was solemn.
This was the reason why he hadn't come to see Nangong Minglu for so long.
Having known Han Xiyan for so long, he knew that Xu Muyang was almost Han Xiyan's right-hand man.
Han Xiyan valued him very much and gave him a lot. Why did he want to frame Han Xiyan?
"Really?" Nangong Minglu blinked blankly.
She only knew what happened before she passed out.
Everything that happened after she fainted was erased by Ling Haotian.
Others were unwilling to mention the incident that hurt her, so she didn't know about Han Xiyan being taken away by the police.
"Why exactly?"
Nangong Minglu asked curiously.
It seems that Xu Muyang is very respectful to Han Xiyan. Why would he want to harm Han Xiyan?
"It's a long story!"
Ling Haotian was devastated. An accident many years ago destroyed three originally happy families.
"Then you speak slowly, I have plenty of time, so I can listen slowly." Nangong Minglu put her head on Ling Haotian's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.
This feels really good!
"Han Xiyan's father is called Han Zhi. He was a good friend of Uncle Rong. He died in a car accident many years ago. Do you know all this?"
Ling Haotian tried his best to tell the story carefully as an outsider, for fear that Nangong Minglu would find out that he and Han Xiyan were acquaintances in the first place.
"I know! It's because of Uncle Han's unexpected death that my father married Han Xiyan's mother and I lost my father!" Nangong Minglu frowned, her face full of displeasure.
"At that time, Han Zhi was driving drunk at a high speed and hit an oncoming private car. A young couple was sitting in that car. In that car accident, both Han Zhi and the couple were
Died on the spot..."
Although Ling Haotian was trying hard to control himself, he still felt very sad in his heart. His best friend lost his father in that car accident.
"Could it be that Xu Muyang is—" Nangong Minglu suddenly sat up from Ling Haotian's arms, her eyes widening in shock.
"Yes! Xu Muyang is the only son of the couple who died in the car accident!" Ling Haotian looked back at her sadly.
She is really smart and can tell everything.
"After the car accident, Xu Muyang's relatives were unwilling to adopt him, so he was sent to an orphanage. When Han Xiyan was fourteen years old, Han Xiyan found out about the incident, found Xu Muyang, and gave Xu Muyang a lot of help
.”
"Xu Muyang was angry at Han Xiyan because Uncle Han killed his parents. I can understand it, but - why did he want to harm me?"
"because--"
Ling Haotian began to hesitate whether to tell Nangong Minglu that Han Xiyan suspected that Rong Baichuan killed his father.
Seeing Ling Haotian's hesitant expression, Han Xiyan's hatred suddenly flashed in Nangong Minglu's mind.
——"Rong Baichuan is the enemy who killed my father. He is my father-killing enemy!"
"Your hypocrite father, coveting my mother's beauty, deliberately caused a car accident, killed my father, and took over my mother——"
Nangong Minglu suddenly shuddered.
"It's because Xu Muyang also believed that my father deliberately caused the car accident, so he indirectly killed his parents. He hated Han Zhi, and he hated my father even more. So, he has been hiding around Han Xiyan, looking for opportunities to take revenge. He has been
Those around Han Xiyan are adding fuel to the flames, trying to kill two birds with one stone, harming both Han Xiyan and me, and making it impossible for us to stand up forever!"
After listening to Nangong Minglu's analysis, Ling Haotian was speechless and could only nod, because everything he investigated was indeed true!
Nangong Minglu shivered violently.
Hatred can actually make people become so terrible!
Ling Haotian took her into his arms again and patted her comfortingly, "Don't worry! I will protect you, whether it's Han Xiyan or Xu Muyang, I will never let them hurt you again in the future!"
"Haotian! Do you believe that Uncle Han's car accident was caused by my father?" Nangong Minglu looked up at Ling Haotian.
Ling Haotian pondered for a moment, "I don't believe it! Uncle Rong has a good reputation in the business world and is an upright and kind man. I don't believe he would do something like that!"
"But that idiot Han Xiyan will believe it! He was raised by my father, but he doesn't believe my father, but believes in the random rumors he heard from who knows where!" Nangong Minglu was annoyed.
said.
Han Xiyan is such a bastard, a fool and an idiot!
"His cousin Han Peng told him this, and he didn't really believe it at first. But the matter of Uncle Rong marrying his mother has always bothered him. He thought that no matter what, Uncle Rong, as his father's good friend,
Nor should he marry his friend’s widow when his body is still cold. He is a man of few words, but even though he doesn’t say it, he still can’t forgive Uncle Rong for this matter!”
These are what Ling Haotian and Han Xiyan have experienced after having known each other for so many years.
It is indeed against common sense for Rong Baichuan to marry Han Xiyan's mother.
Therefore, this was also something that he couldn't understand.
"Haotian, why does it sound like you know Han Xiyan very well?" Nangong Minglu asked him strangely.
Ling Haotian was suddenly shocked.
He tried to pretend as if nothing had happened, "This is why I came to see you so late! I am doing my homework! Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be victorious in every battle, and can you better protect you, right?"
"Oh! That's right!"
Nangong Minglu responded without any doubt and continued to sit in his arms and talk about other things.
Ling Haotian's back was already wet.
so close!
She was almost exposed!
However, paper cannot contain the fire. One day, Nangong Minglu will find out that Han Xiyan is his good friend, so it is better to confess first and be lenient.
However, she had just been so hurt by Han Xiyan, would it be difficult for her to accept her status as Han Xiyan's good friend now?
Ling Haotian thought about it, hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to put this matter aside for now.
Decided to wait until there is a better opportunity in the future before telling her...
