Chapter 1147

By the roadside, Zhuang Keer waited restlessly outside the car . She was only relieved when she saw Ning Xi walk out . She quickly walked up to her and called out, "Xiao Xi!"

"Let's go!" Ning Xi opened the car door for her and quickly helped Zhuang Keer in .

Zhuang Rongguang just quietly shrunk into the backseat of the car .

Zhuang Keer pulled Ning Xi's windbreaker closely around her and said worriedly, "If I go home like this and bump into the maids, it might be troublesome to explain . . . "

"Let's go to my place first . "

"Mmm . " Zhuang Keer nodded, her eyes teared up as she looked at the driving girl . "Xiao Xi, I'm really sorry about tonight . In a moment of desperation, I just sent the message without thinking, then I started to worry that I would implicate you and something would happen . I have to bear the blame . . . I'm really sorry . . . "

Ning Xi looked at Zhuang Keer through the rearview mirror, her gaze no longer as murderous as it was in the warehouse . Her voice was gentle . "No need to be sorry . I'm very happy that at such a moment, the person you thought of was me . "

As she looked at Ning Xi's gentle expression, Zhuang Keer felt an indescribable feeling . She took out a tissue and helped Ning Xi wipe off the blood splatter on her cheeks . "But . . . Ning Xi, how did you come so quickly?"

"I've been outstation for work these few days . I just got on a flight back to Imperial tonight and I saw your message on the way home from the airport . Thankfully, the cab was not too far away from you at that time . "

Or else, if she had been a little later, she dared not to imagine what would have happened . . .

Zhuang Keer understood, then she looked worried again . "Xiao Xi, would this affect you or anything? After all, you have just . . . "

Ning Xi tilted her head and gave Zhuang Keer a look of assurance . "Trust my capabilities of erasing traces . "


"Mmm . " Zhuang Keer nodded, she had an unconditional trust in the person before her .



In the back seat, Zhuang Rongguang stared at Ning Xi with an absent-minded expression . His eyes . . . there was a certain yearning and longing that he had not noticed himself . . .

He wanted . . . wanted to be someone like this . . .

A person that others could rely on . . .

For the people around him to trust and rely on without reservations . . .

He wanted to be a real man . . .

. . .



Half an hour later, Ning Xi arrived outside her bungalow .

Inside the house, Ning Xi immediately found a clean set of clothes for Zhuang Keer . "Go and take a hot shower . Change out of your clothes . "

"Mmm . "

After Zhuang Keer left to shower, Zhuang Rongguang stood in the living room at a loss . He thought that with Ning Xi's temperament, she would have berated him endlessly, and maybe even beat him up, so he was prepared to face it all .

At last, Ning Xi did not scold him . She did not even look at him as if he was invisible . He was being completely ignored .

Ning Xi's indifferent attitude made him feel even worse than being scolded or beaten up . . .



A while later, Zhuang Keer was done with her shower .

Ning Xi let Steamed Bun bring the first aid kit over, then called Zhuang Keer to sit down beside her, "Come here, let me look at your wounds . "

Ning Xi just skimmed her body slightly and saw all the shocking signs of force on Zhuang Keer's wrists and neck . It was even starker on her pale white skin and this had yet to include the bruises under her clothes . . .
