Ning Yu’s gaze fell on Qin Yu, who was sitting upright on the sofa. He could not help but praise in his heart, “What a beauty!”

Qin Yu had already taken in everything that was happening at the door. She was not the least bit surprised by Qu Li and her daughter’s actions.

This Ning Yu was rather attractive as well. His facial features were somewhat similar to Ning Chen’s. After all, they were cousins.

However, their temperaments were completely different.

Although Ning Chen was blind, he was the perfect gentleman. He was gentle, yet cold and distant. His aura would change automatically when he faced different people.

At home, he was warm when he faced her, Uncle Wen, and Guan Yue. Before the Shi family and in front of Shi Yong, his aura made it so that Shi Yong did not even dare to breathe loudly. Therefore, Qin Yu could understand why the people of the Ning family were still afraid of him even though he was blind.

According to the information given to her by the four little ones, Ning Chen’s biggest rival in the Ning family was Ning Yu, the second young master in front of her.

Qin Yu could sense at first glance that Ning Yu was unconsciously imitating Ning Chen, imitating his coldness and arrogance, and also his gentle nature.

However, it was apparent he was trying too hard. Even with his alluring eyes, he did not even have half of Ning Chen’s charm.

Just like a fake.

Ah Yu introduced, “Young Madam, this is our second young master.”

Qin Yu had already put on an ignorant face and replied with an “oh”. She did not move at all.

Ning Yu sized her up. His gaze was flirty as he sat down across from her. “Hello, Sister-in-law! You can just call me Ning Yu.”

Qin Yu did not say anything. Qu Li and Shi Xiao were already sitting on either side of her.

Qin Yu’s heart skipped a beat. She smiled sweetly at Ning Yu. “Are you here to look for Ning Chen? He’s not here. Why don’t you let my sister and mother chat with you?”

She stood up and yawned loudly. “I’m sleepy. I want to sleep for a while.”

After saying that, she was about to walk out.

Ning Yu was stunned. “Sister-in-law, I’m here to invite you and Big Brother to the family banquet tomorrow.”

Qin Yu covered her mouth with one hand and yawned. When she heard this, she stopped and waved her hand disinterestedly. “Go and tell Ning Chen. If he wants me to go, I’ll go. If he doesn’t want me to go, I can’t go.”

Ning Yu’s gaze never left her. Was this little girl stupid or naive?

“Good heavens, Qin Yu, what kind of attitude is this? Come back here!” Qu Li shouted anxiously.

This shout immediately floored Qin Yu.

“Come here!” Qu Li growled.

Qin Yu walked back obediently.

Qu Li had already switched her expression to a smile and said to Ning Yu, “Second Young Master, Qin Yu is not sensible. Don’t take it to heart! This girl is not very smart. How can she not attend the Ning family’s banquet? It’s already good enough that you don’t dislike her!”

Qu Li dragged Qin Yu, and she fell onto the sofa.

“Sit properly!” Qu Li ordered her.

Ning Yu looked surprised.

Shi Xiao sat opposite Ning Yu and apologized gently, “Second Young Master, you probably don’t know yet, right? My sister has some problems with her intelligence. She might not understand what you mean. Please don’t be angry with her.”

Qu Li also said, “That’s right, Second Young Master. I wonder if tomorrow’s family banquet is very important? If it’s not possible, let Qin Yu’s sister accompany her. Otherwise, Qin Yu will make a fool of herself and lose the Ning family’s face. It won’t be good!”

Qin Yu could not help but sneer in her heart. So it turned out that they were going to buy one and get one free. Was this to pave the way for Shi Xiao?

Qin Yu raised her head and said with some grievance, “Then, then why don’t we let Xiaoxiao go in my place? I… I’m afraid.”

Qu Li’s face was full of disappointment. She gritted her teeth and said, “Why are you so useless? You’re the young lady of the Ning family! Xiaoxiao is your sister. Of course, you have to bring her along!”

As she said that, she gave Qin Yu a slap on the head. She covered her head and hid in a corner while wincing in pain.

From the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of Ning Yu looking at the scene in front of him with a smile. Qin Yu was now certain, that Ning Yu was here to test her.

She looked at Qu Li in fear and mumbled, “But, but, what if they think I’m stupid and laugh at my sister? What if because of me, my sister can’t get married to Guan Yue? Will Mom hit me?”

Qu Li wished she could slap Qin Yu in the face. Why did she mention Guan Yue in front of Ning Yu?

Unfortunately, it was too late. Ning Yu had already caught on to this sensitive word.

“Oh? This young lady knows Guan Yue? Is she Guan Yue’s fiancée?” Ning Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at Shi Xiao. He had not yet remembered her name.

Shi Xiao was greatly embarrassed. She wished she could rip Qin Yu into pieces.

Qu Li hurriedly smiled and said, “That’s not true. Please don’t listen to this fool Qin Yu’s nonsense. Our Shi Xiao doesn’t have a boyfriend yet.”

She held Shi Xiao’s hand and said to Ning Yu affectionally, “Our Xiaoxiao is kind and good-natured.. She has suffered a lot since she was young to have such a naive elder sister! “Second Young Master, you might laugh at this but she still worries about her even after marriage, so she comes to visit every few days. It hasn’t been easy for her!”
