Chapter 13: Nonchalant Consideration

Ye Ningxuan didn’t get the jade pendant this time, nor did she see Lin Yuyang and Ye Xuan fight. She was extremely disappointed!

Sighing, he said to Zhan Hanjue regretfully, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave. Please continue your discussion.”

“Come somewhere with me,” Zhan Hanjue ordered coldly.

Ye Ningxuan frowned. “Where are we going?”

“You’ll know when we get there.” Zhan Hanjue took her hand and led her downstairs.

Usually, watching Zhan Hanjue move around at home would always make Ye Ningxuan wonder if he was really blind.

She couldn’t feel that there was something wrong with his eyes until they were outside now, in an unfamiliar place.

Zhan Hanjue held her hand very tightly as they descended the stairs. They had been walking quickly, but he slowed considerably when they reached the landing.

Ye Ningxuan pursed her lips and could only slow down. She let go of his hand and almost helped him downstairs with her arm.

Zhan Hanjue didn’t ask her for help, and Ye Ningxuan didn’t expose the matter.

In order not to embarrass him, Ye Ningxuan kept holding his arm as they got into the car.

“Ah, I forgot to tell the driver to go back first. He’s still waiting for me in the car.” Ye Ningxuan suddenly remembered after getting into the car and let go of Zhan Hanjue’s arm.

Zhan Hanjue said, “He has been informed to return home.”

Ye Ningxuan heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good. Otherwise, he would have waited for nothing.”

“You are the young lady of the Zhan family,” Zhan Hanjue said. “It is his job even if he waits a day.”

Ye Ningxuan didn’t say anything. She secretly glanced at Zhan Hanjue and wondered where he was taking her.

The car drove for about an hour before finally stopping.

Ye Ningxuan saw that it was a Western-style villa.

It was mainly pure white. The milky-white marble floor, fountains, and Western buildings all bespoke luxury.

The driver opened the door for them.

Zhan Hanjue got out of the car first and then ordered her, “Get out.”

Ye Ningxuan took another look and asked curiously, “Where are we?”

“What, are you afraid I’ll sell you off?” Zhan Hanjue scoffed.

“If you dare to sell me, Grandma won’t let you off easily.” Ye Ningxuan wasn’t afraid.

Zhan Hanjue pulled a face. She knew how to keep him in line quite well.

The bodyguard delivered Zhan Hanjue’s cane again.

Zhan Hanjue caught it and walked forward slowly with his cane.

This was the first time Ye Ningxuan had seen him use a cane. She immediately followed him and walked to his side. She even took his arm.

“You don’t have to hold me,” Zhan Hanjue said coldly.

Ye Ningxuan said, “I’m not supporting you. I’m not familiar with this place. I’m afraid. I feel safe with you.”

A strange feeling passed through Zhan Hanjue. He stopped shooing her away and led her inside.

“Young Master is here. Sit down quickly. I’ll report to Madam.”

The servant greeted them warmly. After letting Zhan Hanjue sit down, he poured tea and then went to report to his master.

Ye Ningxuan heard the servant call Zhan Hanjue ‘Young Master’. It seemed that Zhan Hanjue had a deep relationship with the master of this house.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have addressed him so intimately.

Madam didn’t come. Instead, a beautiful girl of about 18 or 19 years old came down first. She had almond-shaped eyes and rosy cheeks. She was beautiful and delicate. After running down, she slowly walked over shyly and greeted Zhan Hanjue.

“Cousin, you’re here.”

Cousin?

She was Zhan Hanjue’s relative?

Zhan Hanjue nodded, his expression neutral.

“That’s not how cousins treat each other,” Ye Ningxuan thought.

However, she recalled that Zhan Hanjue had a gloomy personality and was indifferent to her. It was normal for him to be indifferent to an adult cousin.

However, this cousin was a little abnormal.

Her eyes were sparkling as she looked at Zhan Hanjue shyly.

How was that like looking at her cousin? It was like looking at her lover.

Ye Ningxuan secretly laughed. Could it be an incestuous relationship?

However, everyone knew that close relatives couldn’t get married. Could it be that this young lady had never gone to school?

“Zhan Hanjue is here.”

At this moment, another woman came downstairs.

From the looks of it, she was only in her thirties or forties. However, Ye Ningxuan had seen countless people. She could still tell from the fine lines at the corners of her eyes that this woman was at least fifty years old.

Zhan Hanjue stood up and also pulled Ye Ningxuan up. He greeted the woman respectfully, “Aunt.”

Aunt?

Ye Ningxuan was surprised!

She had asked someone to investigate Zhan Hanjue. It did say that he had an aunt who seemed to have married a businessman. Her husband had died young and had only one son. She was known as Mrs. Leng.

It seemed that this was Mrs. Leng.

“This is your new wife?” Mrs. Leng looked at Ye Ningxuan quizzically.

“New wife? Isn’t she ugly?” Her young cousin was shocked.

“Yes, she’s Ye Ningxuan. It’s all rumors,” Zhan Hanjue explained.

“I see. However, despite looking like this, there’s actually such rumors. Looks like Miss Ye isn’t as simple as she seems,” Mrs. Leng said mockingly.

The younger cousin stamped her foot in anger and said sadly, “Cousin, are you really married to her?”

“Linglong, be serious,” Mrs. Leng chided.

Leng Linglong’s eyes reddened. She felt embarrassed and turned to run.

Ye Ningxuan was confused. What was going on with this family?

But Mrs. Leng didn’t like her. She could see that.

After Mrs. Leng let Zhan Hanjue sit down, she said to Ye Ningxuan, “I have something to discuss with Zhan Hanjue. Miss Ye, go out for a walk!”

Ye Ningxuan smiled and nodded. She didn’t want to sit here and suffer.

The view outside was perfect. She was led by a servant to take a stroll in the garden.

Unexpectedly, Miss Leng was also in the garden, sitting on the swing.

Ye Ningxuan stopped and thought for a moment before walking towards Leng Linglong.

“Miss Leng,” Ye Ningxuan greeted her with a smile.

Leng Linglong stopped and saw that it was her. She snorted angrily. “What are you doing here? You’re not welcome in our house.”

“I didn’t want to come either. Zhan Hanjue brought me here. What choice did I have?” Ye Ningxuan looked helpless.

Leng Linglong became even angrier when she heard Zhan Hanjue’s name. She said angrily, “Don’t think that just because my cousin married you, he likes you. He just needs a woman to give him children. When you give birth, he’ll abandon you.”

“Miss Leng, are you so angry because you like Zhan Hanjue? However, since he just wants to find a woman to have children with, why didn’t he find Miss Leng? Oh, I remember now. Miss Leng and he are cousins. You guys can’t have children.” Ye Ningxuan smiled.

Leng Linglong immediately shouted, “Nonsense. I’m not related to my cousin by blood. Mrs. Leng is my aunt.”

“In that case, why didn’t he marry you?” Ye Ningxuan deliberately teased.

Leng Linglong said disdainfully, “That’s because Cousin’s isn’t good-fated. He’s a jinx. My cousin refused to marry me because he was protecting me.”

“Then he’s really good to you.” Ye Ningxuan said enviously, “No wonder he warned me on the way here that if I see a beautiful and cute girl, I have to be respectful and polite. I can’t make her angry.”

“Really? My cousin really said that?” Leng Linglong was excited, her face flushed.

Ye Ningxuan nodded solemnly. “Of course. Why would I lie to you? There’s nothing to gain.”
