Chapter 3: Brother

What a ridiculous question!

Zhou Heng smiled and asked, "Why do you think so?" ”

Ning Tong bit his lip and remained silent.

But Zhou Heng also knew something about her from Ning Yu's mouth.

She was born prematurely, not only was she frail and sickly since she was a child, but she was always pampered by the Ning family on a livable island, and she had very few people in contact with her since she was a child.

And there is one more thing that only the Ning family knows.

That is, her mind is not normal.

So Zhou Heng was not too surprised.

But her identity is Ning Yu's sister, and her relationship with him is delicate.

In other words, he asked, "Why did you keep avoiding me?" ”

He was very serious, and Ning Tong pursed his lower lip and said, "You are my sister's man." ”

Zhou Heng looked at her and waited for her to continue.

"Can't like me." Ning Tong's moist eyes looked at him worriedly, and he looked scared, "I'm afraid you'll like me." ”

Zhou Heng didn't expect this kind of answer, he was stunned for a moment, suddenly laughed absurdly, and said categorically: "You think too much, there will be no such possibility." ”

Ning Zhi's dark eyes stared at him, "Really? ”

"Hmm." In order to reassure her, Zhou Heng said patiently: "For me, you are Xiaoyu's sister, and you are also my sister, you treat me as a brother, just get along normally, don't think too much." ”

Ning Tong: "Brother? ”

"Yes."

Ning Tong thought for a while, "If you are treated as a brother, you don't have to keep your distance?" ”

Zhou Heng paused for a moment, "Hmm." ”

Ning Zhi's eyes instantly bent up like a crescent moon, threw herself into his arms and hugged him, and said happily, "That's great, brother!" ”

This hug was too sudden, Zhou Heng paused for a moment before pushing her away, got up, and said lightly: "Well, you will treat me as a brother in the future, I have something to do with your sister today, so I will leave first." ”

When the words fell, he turned and left.

He looks polite and thoughtful, but he is cold in his bones from beginning to end, giving people a sense of distance.

Ning Zhi watched him go out with a smile before pulling his lips and smiling and retracting his gaze.

Zhou Heng went out and found Ning Yu, who was looking for him.

When Ning Yu saw him, he asked suspiciously, "Zhou Heng, where did you go just now?" I can't find you anywhere. ”

Zhou Heng was about to say what happened just now, but when the words came to his lips, looking at Ning Yu's puzzled eyes, he paused for a moment, and when he spoke again, he said, "Bathroom." ”

Ning Yu said "oh" without doubt, and said, "Then let's go." ”

She would never have thought that Zhou Heng had just been in Ning Tong's room.

The two grew up together, and Ning Yu knew that Zhou Heng was a person who knew how to measure himself, even if there was really any special situation to enter Ning Tong's room, she called him, and he would agree.

This is also the reason why she didn't go to Ning Tong's room to look for it.

Ning Tong has just taken the college entrance examination, and now it is summer vacation, and he is idle at home every day.

After Zhou Heng left, she stayed in the room until noon, when the maid came to call her for lunch, and she didn't go out.

There was still blood on her skirt, which was obvious, and her legs were very uncomfortable when she walked.

But when the maid saw her, he only said stylizedly, "Third Miss, it's time for lunch." ”

Other than that, nothing else was said.

Ning Tong ignored them, walked straight to the restaurant, and picked up chopsticks to eat.

When she had finished eating, she got up and left, and the servant next to her came to clean up the table without saying a word.

Ning Tong returned to his room and closed the door, sat on the bed and flipped through the book.

In this way, in the evening, when going downstairs, Shu He and Ning Yu came back, the two were talking, Ning Yu twisted her eyebrows, not very happy, but Shu He didn't know what to say, she laughed again, and the two laughed and chatted.

However, without waiting for Ning Tong to approach, the two saw her and stopped talking at the same time with a tacit understanding.

Shu He looked at Ning Zhi down, and the corners of his lips hooked up a gentle smile, "You came just in time, my mother has good news for you." ”

Ning Tong laughed when he heard this, and trotted in front of her with the discomfort on his legs, waiting expectantly.

Shu He's eyes quietly swept over her lap, still smiling, "Grandpa is going to hold a banquet to celebrate your return on the weekend, and by that time, the whole Haicheng will know that you are the little princess of the Ning family, are you happy?" ”

Ning Tong bent his eyes and cheered, "Happy!" ”

Looking at her smile, Shu He and Ning Yu glanced at each other, and both of them pulled their lower lipes meaninglessly.

Weekends come quickly.

Old Man Ning attached great importance to this banquet, and specially invited a teacher to temporarily teach Ning Tong banquet etiquette.

Early that morning, Ning Tong was called over.

On this day, I told her the rules again, and I dressed her up.

Ning Zhi was weak, and before the banquet started, she was so tired that she fell asleep in the dressing room.

Zhou Heng, as the prospective son-in-law of the Ning family, was naturally invited.

Because he had something to talk about with Old Man Ning, he came a little in advance.

After talking, he heard that Ning Yu went to the dressing room, so he went to find her.

I just pushed the door open, and the lights were on, but there was no one.

He pulled the door open and was about to go out, when the afterglow swept over the couch in the corner.

There was a petite woman lying on it.

She was wearing a peach-pink bubble grapefruit dress, her thick long hair was messy and scattered under her, and her small face was porcelain white and soft like a dream.

She fell asleep quietly, her long eyelashes drooping, quiet and soft, her chest rose and fell with her breathing, her slender figure was wrapped in a gorgeous dress, and the whole person looked like a beautiful gift that had just been packed.

Zhou Heng glanced at it and was about to leave, but suddenly saw her body trembling constantly, as if she had fallen into a nightmare.

After all, she is Ning Yu's younger sister.

Zhou Heng stepped forward quickly, squatted down and patted her shoulder, "Ning Tong, wake up." ”

Ning Zhi woke up under his patting, and at that moment, she suddenly opened her eyes, her empty eyes looked at the void in a dazed and painful way, and it wasn't until Zhou Heng called her again that she came back to her senses and looked at him.

After a few seconds, a string of tears fell down her eyes, and she called him, "Brother." ”

Zhou Heng looked at her suddenly pale face and asked in a low voice, "Have you had a nightmare?" ”

Ning Tong hugged him with an "um" sound, and his face was pressed against his chest like a kitten.

Zhou Heng's figure froze slightly for a few seconds and raised his hand, but looking at her uncomfortable appearance, he paused slightly and did not immediately push it away.

Someone was passing by outside, and the sound of conversation came in.

"I heard that there are famous sons and brothers in Haicheng tonight."

"Of course, the master is going to choose a husband for the third lady."

"Wouldn't it? She's still that young. ”

"Otherwise, how could the master take her back, like this kind of big family, who doesn't understand, her kind of person who has been put on the island alone for more than ten years is basically abandoned by the family, and she will be taken back at this time, just to see how well she grows up, and it is just a little valuable......"

The two men walked farther and farther away, and their voices were no longer clear.

Zhou Heng felt a touch of wetness in his neck.

He lowered his eyes, only to see that Ning Zhi's face was a little paler, and she nestled in his neck without saying a word, but her body was trembling.

His hand somehow landed on her back, gently patting to soothe.

Time flowed silently, and after a long time, Ning Yu's voice called outside the door again, "Okay, I guess she's still in the dressing room, I'll go in and take a look, hang up first." ”

The next second, the doorknob turned.
