Ning Ronghao didn't insist on sending Chu Xinyi home, no, to be precise, he didn't even think about opening his mouth.

When he returned home in a trance, he only had one thought in his mind, that is, fortunately he came by taxi today, and his current mental state was really not suitable for driving.

When he got home, as soon as he entered the door and heard the laughter of Zhou Zhihui and Ning Zaiyu in the living room, Ning Ronghao knew that Ning Guoen must not have come back yet, otherwise his younger brother, who had always been afraid of his father, would not stay in the living room.

"Mom, I'm back." Ning Ronghao said hello to Zhou Zhihui and was about to go back to the room, but was stopped by Ning Zaiyu.

Ning Zaiyu asked curiously while staining cucumber slices on Zhou Zhihui's face, "Brother, I heard that you went on a blind date?" What do you think? Is that woman pretty? ”

"Hmm...... I guess it's pretty good. Ning Ronghao felt that it would be more appropriate to use the word "cute" to describe Chu Xinyi.

"Mom, you listen to my brother's reluctant tone, I'm right, my brother's vision is high, he definitely can't look down on ordinary women, the result of this blind date is the same as I guessed, no play." When Ning Zaiyu heard that Ning Ronghao went on a blind date, he concluded that this blind date would definitely end in failure. In his mind, this brother is a perfect god, and she is not worthy of any woman.

Zhou Zhihui nodded approvingly, and didn't look at who gave birth to the son.

"But, brother, this is Dad's favorite daughter-in-law, you haven't come back yet&1&Ben&Read&Novel{.{ yb}{du}.}, think about what to say. Ning Zaiyu's face was worried, that stinky old man was stubborn, he was really afraid that his dear brother would be tied up in the cave room.

"I see." Ning Ronghao is not in the mood to fill the generation gap between his father and younger brother today, he just wants to take a good shower now. After going up a few stairs, he stopped again, turned to Zhou Zhihui and said, "Mom, I'm a little tired today, when Dad comes back, you can help me talk about it, and I'll talk to him about the blind date tomorrow." ”

When he entered the room, Ning Ronghao saw a courier package on his desk, which should have been placed here after being accepted by the nanny.

Unpacked, inside was a copy of "The Hunt for Scapetta", along with a card with only one signature that was too messy to make out what the words were.

Ning Ronghao was in good spirits, took out his mobile phone, and sent a message to his friend Mu Zhengyu to express his gratitude. In addition to his family, only Mu Zhengyu knows his hobbies.

Now, there's one more person.

Just relaxed a little, Chu Xinyi's smiling face appeared in Ning Ronghao's mind again, he threw the book on the bed in a distraught manner, and walked to the bathroom with a change of clothes.

The cold bath water slapped on his back, allowing Ning Ronghao to slowly calm down.

The confidence shown by Ning Guoen last night was not unreasonable, Chu Xinyi was indeed a likable girl, in other words, anyone would be very willing to associate with her. It's a pity that there is already another girl in Ning Ronghao's heart.

Ning Ronghao couldn't find an accurate word to describe what that girl meant to herself, just four days of getting along, but she had been rooted in her heart for fourteen years. The affection for her cannot be called love, but she is the most important woman.

If she hadn't rescued him back then, I'm afraid his life would have ended in high school.

The kidnapping fourteen years ago, how he spent those days, Ning Ronghao never mentioned it to anyone. Therefore, he couldn't let others understand that for a high school student struggling on the line of life and death, the appearance of that girl was like a ray of light in the darkness, giving him the last glimmer of hope in despair.

She looked so weak and scarred, but from her big eyes, there was incomparably strong, if it weren't for her, he Ning Ronghao might have had a nervous breakdown and gone crazy before he escaped.

And what made him blame himself even more was that the kidnappers found out when the two escaped, and the girl ran to lure the kidnappers away alone in order to protect him who was weak and powerless, although they made an appointment to meet again at a time and place, but she did not appear. Ning Guoen also sent people to inquire around, but there was no news of her at all.

After many years, Ning Ronghao entrusted his friend Mu Zhengyu to re-investigate, and accidentally heard a witness say that there had been a car accident in the vicinity that year, and he ran to the major hospitals in the city with the last glimmer of hope, but did not find a matching medical record, and the investigation entered a dead end.

The unexpressed gratitude, the worry of not being able to predict the outcome, and the self-blame for not being able to protect her, these complex emotions are intertwined, which may be the reason why Ning Ronghao has not been able to let go of that girl for so many years.

He refused to fall in love and get married because he had her in his heart, and he promised himself that he would find her and give her a happy future.

However, this persistence has been shaken today, without warning.

"What do you want me to do?" Ning Ronghao propped up the wall with his hands and lowered his head, as if he was pleading, as if he was repenting.

Except for the sound of the water, there was no sound to respond to his question.

When his body was about to lose consciousness because of the cold water, Ning Ronghao finally found the answer, he would not allow two women to be in his heart at the same time.

"I'm sorry...... Ning Ronghao raised his head, pressed the faucet vigorously, wrapped the bath towel around his waist casually, and walked out of the bathroom.

Chu Xinyi, who was sleepy, got up with a stomach full of breath, and stood at the intersection angrily looking around.

It was already angry enough to be called out early in the morning, and the most hateful thing was that the person refused to show up. I really regret that I left each other's mobile phone numbers yesterday when we chatted at a moment's notice, which is probably the most wrong decision in her life.

There was a smell of alcohol behind him, and several teenagers with a hangover who had not woken up surrounded Chu Xinyi.

"What a cute bunny." One of the teenagers made a teasing speech, and even pulled a bunny ear on Chu Xinyi's head while talking.

I knew that I wouldn't wear this hoodie with rabbit ears, but I blamed the uncle for being in such a hurry, so she grabbed one casually and put it on her body and came out.

"Don't be so barbaric, look at the ...... that scares the little sister" Another teenager looked at Chu Xinyi's figure obscenely, although her curves could not be seen in the loose hoodie, but her slender legs were exposed: "Tsk, these legs are so dazzling." ”

Chu Xinyi calmly looked at the teenager who was disrespectful to herself, a few little broken children still dared to bite a little sister, who was not good to provoke her, she really didn't know if she was dying.

Another teenager whistled, stared at Chu Xinyi's legs, and nodded in admiration: "It's beautiful, it's so white...... As he spoke, one of his hands stretched out to her leg.

Chu Xinyi sneered disdainfully, today she wants to educate these little hooligans well, so that they will never dare to bully girls casually in the future.

She was just about to make a move, when someone suddenly grabbed the groping pig hand that stretched out first.

"Uncle." When Chu Xinyi saw that it was Ning Ronghao, she screamed happily, and then put away her smile again, almost forgetting that she was still angry with him.

A "uncle" caused a burst of laughter, Ning Ronghao frowned and threw an incomprehensible glance at Chu Xinyi, before he warned the teenagers: "Before I call the police, you'd better leave ...... interestingly."

One of the teenagers laughed strangely: "Uncle, don't think that anyone can be a hero to save the United States, we are five people now, you are only one person, don't play prestige and don't understand, but harm yourself to be admitted to the hospital......"

"Is your name uncle?" Chu Xinyi seemed to have an angry expression when someone snatched her toy, and when she heard others call Ning Ronghao "uncle", why was she so uncomfortable.

Ning Ronghao let go of the teenager's hand and stopped Chu Xinyi, protecting her behind him as if he was afraid that she would be injured.

Chu Xinyi was stunned for a moment, looking at the tall back in front of her, and her heart was pounding. Although she can easily deal with these little hooligans by herself, this feeling of being protected by others warms her heart.

"Since he wants to be a hero, let's fulfill him...... You can rest assured, as long as you don't kill him, my dad has the ability to settle it. One of the teenagers shouted wildly.

"I'll help you......" Chu Xinyi took off her hat and tied a knot casually in order not to be hindered by rabbit ears from fighting.

"With me here, don't worry, I won't let you get hurt." A gentle smile flashed in Ning Ronghao's eyes.

In less than five minutes, several little hooligans squatted on the ground shirtless, and Ning Ronghao used their shirts to tie several people firmly together.

Although there were few passers-by on the morning of the holiday, some people called the police.

Seeing a few little hooligans being taken away by the police uncle, Chu Xinyi asked super dissatisfied, "It's so cheap for them?" ”

"Leave it to the police." Ning Ronghao smiled faintly, he knew why Chu Xinyi was unhappy.

"But you were too merciful just now, if this were me, I would have to beat them with a blue nose and swollen face!" Chu Xinyi felt really angry, she dared to be rude to her, she was really tired!

Ning Ronghao patted Chu Xinyi's head gently, helped her untie the knotted rabbit ears, and then put a hat on her before saying with a smile: "They are just children." ”

"Yes, I see!" Chu Xinyi admired Ning Ronghao's tolerance and generosity, she patted him on the shoulder like him, and said with a smile: "You are really a mature uncle!" ”

"Don't call uncle in the future, call brother!" Ning Ronghao raised his hand and knocked on Chu Xinyi's head, solemnly warned, and solemnly declared.

A minute ago, if someone told Chu Xinyi that being shot in the head by a man was a sign of love, then she would definitely laugh at that person's brain-dead.

And now, she felt that Ning Ronghao's eyes, expressions, movements, and even the smell of Armani perfume emanating from his body seemed very intimate.

Chu Xinyi hesitated, put her palm on Ning Ronghao's forehead, and after a long while, she muttered quietly, "You don't have a fever either......"

Ning Ronghao pulled down the hand on his forehead with a smile, and held it tightly in his hand without letting go.

"Big ...... Brother, you ...... This is ......" Chu Xinyi's cheeks were flushed, but she didn't look away, and kept looking at Ning Ronghao's eyes.

"Chu Xinyi, if you don't have a boyfriend and don't have a crush, consider marrying me." Ning Ronghao put Chu Xinyi's hand on her chest and made her feel her heartbeat, so as to prove that what she said now was 100% serious.

"This is ......" Chu Xinyi's thinking couldn't keep up for a while, and Ning Ronghao's words jumped too much, it stands to reason that she should be a girlfriend first, and then she can talk about marriage.

"Confession, marriage proposal, whatever you think. But...... There are some things I want to confess to you first. After a pause, Ning Ronghao continued: "Before I met you, there was a girl in my heart for fourteen years, and she was my savior. My affection for her is not love, but it is a responsibility, and I have always believed that I will find her, and if she wants to, I will marry her and will give her happiness. It wasn't until I met you, a woman who had only seen two sides and captivated me, that I knew that there was more than just responsibility for two people to be together. That's why I can't wait to meet you, tell you this, and let you know how I feel for you. ”

Seeing Chu Xinyi's lips move, Ning Ronghao knew what she wanted to ask, so she explained: "Actually, yesterday was the second time I saw you, the first time was the day before yesterday, in the courtyard of your house, but you were sleeping at the time. ”

Chu Xinyi nodded, and motioned to Ning Ronghao with her eyes to continue.

"I thought about it for a long time last night, and tried hard to get myself to give up on you, but I couldn't convince my heart, and in the end, I could only say sorry to her. However, I will never forget her life-saving kindness, and if I find her in the future, I will definitely do my best to help her financially. As for feelings, I can't give her anything, because from today on, my heart only belongs to Chu Xinyi alone. Ning Ronghao's words were completed in one go, and it wasn't until he finished speaking that he took a deep breath, it was the first time he was so nervous to face someone.

Oh, my God! Chu Xinyi lowered her head and bit her lip hard, for fear that she would scream. After listening to Ning Ronghao's confession, she felt that her already hot face was already smoking.

Ning Ronghao picked up Chu Xinyi's face and let her look at herself: "We didn't fall in love at first sight, nor did we fall in love for a long time, I can't understand why your feelings are like this, I can only tell you, Chu Xinyi, I want to be with you." I know you need time, and from now on, I'll give you twenty-four hours to consider whether or not to accept my feelings. ”

Although his voice was not loud, the words hit Chu Xinyi's heart, and she nodded in confusion.

"Well, then, I'll send you home now. Next time you go out, remember not to wear these hot pants again. After speaking, Ning Ronghao took Chu Xinyi's hand and walked towards the military compound.
