Actually, if you were to say that An Ning was really as stupid as a pig and didn’t even understand these matters between men and women, that might not necessarily be the case. Perhaps in the Ouyang family, being pampered by Ouyang Tian was the key to survival.
Therefore, she would rather not know anything. With her current stupidity, she might even be pampered by others. Otherwise, if she was as smart as Ouyang Le… All she had left in her life was to make use of her!
However, it was not as if An Ning did not have any memories before she fainted. It was true that she had triggered the mechanism, but the blow on her neck was also real. At that time, there was no one else in the room other than the cook, so the one who had attacked her was definitely the cook. And since she dared to attack her, she was definitely not a simple cook!
However, after she woke up, Ouyang Tian did not mention anything about the cook. Not only that, he did not ask her why she was injured. He only lightly said that she must not be mischievous in the future, and that she must not touch the things in the room. He did not even say anything to reprimand her…
Therefore, even if An Ning wanted to say something stupid, she knew what to say and what not to say. She knew how to protect herself.
However, she still had doubts in her heart. It was about the cook, and it was about Ouyang Tian!
Ouyang Le naturally did not know what kind of mental torment the injured An Ning was going through. These days, she was truly in deep trouble. Clearly, the news from Yan Kuan was that Ouyang Tian had already agreed to the marriage. However, after waiting for half a month, Ouyang Tian did not reveal a single word. Now, even First Aunt and the others began to stop discussing this matter. Every time they saw her, they would tell her to be patient, be patient, be patient! However, the four branches were pressing her so tightly. How could she not be anxious?
“Father, the four branches are keeping a close watch on us. If we leave the country now, they will most likely accuse us of being irresponsible and abandoning the Ouyang family. Then, we will lose more than we gain!”
Ouyang Le looked at her father, Ouyang Jinguo. Leaving the Ouyang family now? They were the legitimate children of the Ouyang family, so how could they give up such a large amount of inheritance rights? Besides, she had already guessed the ambitions of the Ouyang family, so naturally, she wouldn’t be unwilling to leave now!
“Lele, don’t be muddle-headed. Daddy knows what you’re thinking, but don’t forget that you’re a girl. Other than inheriting the property under my name, you have nothing else. Listen to Daddy. Us father and daughter will leave here and live abroad. Isn’t your business doing well abroad? It’s okay for father’s project to be carried out abroad. You’re father’s only daughter. We can’t be muddle-headed!”
Ouyang Jinguo did his best for his only daughter. He poured out his heart and soul for Ouyang Le’s sake. As the legitimate son of the Ouyang family, he knew more about the decadence of the Ouyang family. He had three legitimate brothers. As the heir, his elder brother had been raised by his father since he was young, while his third brother was able to help the Ouyang family greatly by developing his business!
He was the only one who was obsessed with medical research, and his mother favored his second son, who didn’t care about anything in the Ouyang family!
Now, he could still remember his mother’s tragic death. Her whole body was rotten, and not a single piece of her skin was intact. No, other than her face and… everything else was rotten!
In his heart, his mother had always been as beautiful as a fairy. How did she end up like this? Later on, he naturally heard about the secret matters that his mother had told him. Only then did he realize that as the head of the household, she was definitely not as simple as she appeared to be. She was as bright and beautiful as she appeared to be. Now that he saw his sister-in-law, he was no longer as envious as he used to be!
It was just that those secret matters were too shocking. Therefore, up until now, he had always avoided those matters of the Ouyang family. Becoming a true scholar who was obsessed with medicine might also be his way of survival. Originally, he wasn’t too worried about his daughter being abroad, but he didn’t expect her to not only return, but also cause such a big trouble!
Wouldn’t it be better to use this opportunity to leave the Ouyang family? Why did she have to dive headfirst into it?
“You’re still young, so you don’t know what’s going on here. It’s definitely not as simple as you think. The fire is burning like oil, and the flowers are blooming like flowers. It’s not a good thing!”
“Dad, do you know something?” Ouyang Le was smart, so she knew what her father was talking about. Of course, she knew that it wasn’t simple, and she might be able to get something out of it!
However, Ouyang Jinguo thought that it would be better to give his daughter a reminder, so that she wouldn’t be hurt if she didn’t know what was going on!
“Sigh, I…”
…
Half a month later, Shen Xiaoxiao continued to massage Yan Kuan’s legs to prevent his muscles from atrophying. This motionless person was going to be paralyzed!
However, what did these people give Yan Kuan? They didn’t give him any nutrient solution. How could they make him not eat, drink, or move to maintain his vital signs?
Shen Xiaoxiao’s hands were extremely strong. She massaged Yan Kuan very hard. She massaged his limbs, back, and even his heart. Over the past half a month, his stiff muscles had finally improved a little!
It was time for the ‘frame’ to deliver food again. Without even turning her head, Shen Xiaoxiao knew that it must have been handed in from the small hole under the iron door.
Sure enough, after a slight noise, the dark room returned to its usual calm!
She got up, tidied up her clothes, and walked to the toilet to take care of herself. After washing her hands and closing the lid, Shen Xiaoxiao walked to the iron door and picked up the tray. Not bad. Today, there was her favorite white-cut chicken. Although the Ouyang family was corrupt, the result of corruption was not bad either. The food tasted very good!
Whether it was poisonous or not… Of course, even if it was poisonous, Shen Xiaoxiao had no choice but to eat it. This meal was quite enjoyable for Shen Xiaoxiao. She could treat it as a form of entertainment for herself. If she was satisfied with the food, she would not have to eat only white porridge like in her previous life. This was the greatest gift!
After all, she still had a child in her stomach!
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the fragrant chicken soup that she had every day. As usual, she drank half of it, ate up the food, and left half of the soup for Yan Kuan. Regardless of whether Yan Kuan could digest it or not, if he could not open his mouth, she would pry it open and use her mouth to ferry him. In any case, she absolutely could not let him not touch anything.
After eating lunch, she strolled around the house for half an hour. She brought her daily routine here, intact.
She did not know whether it was because Dark 1 did not tell others or because the Ouyang family had other thoughts. In any case, no one had done anything to Shen Xiaoxiao’s stomach.
Moreover, after three months, her tummy was slowly growing. Sometimes, she could even touch the lumps in her tummy. At that time, she would grab Yan Kuan’s hand and let him touch it as well.
Today, the routine walk was over. Shen Xiaoxiao was giving Yan Kuan a massage when she heard a series of soft footsteps coming from outside the door. She was shocked. Could it be that someone was coming?
Sure enough, the footsteps stopped at the door and the sound of the door opening rang out. Shen Xiaoxiao subconsciously looked back and saw a man in black walking in with two men who looked like secret guards. She could only hear him using a voice changer. It was impossible to tell if the voice was male or female, old or young.. Their entire body, including their hair, was covered by a black cloak, leaving only two eyeballs, the first thing they said when they saw Shen Xiaoxiao was: “As long as you hand over the key, I will let you out. Otherwise, tomorrow, we will turn Yan Kuan into a death warrior!”
