"Aunt Liu, you can serve the dishes now."

Mrs. Ning called out to the person in the kitchen, who replied him, Gao Yiqing prepared to help, "I'll help her."

"No need. Come over and sit down. We'll have a chat." Mrs. Ning seemed to be a benevolent goal. She supported Gao Yiqing's shoulders and let her sit down, then she sat down on her own, pulling Gao Yiqing's hand and began to exchange small talk. Actually, Mrs. Ning's temper was pretty good, and it could be said that she was able to chat with Gao Yiqing, and had a very big demeanor when raising her hands and raising her feet, but she did not lose in this aspect of Gao Yiqing. In the end, she had grown up in the Gao Family, and her bones carried the arrogance that came from her mother.

Indeed, his son had taken a liking to someone who was not ordinary. Not to mention, his son was at least on par with an average person.

"But the two of you are progressing too quickly. Just how did you meet him? He didn't tell us anything. The child has grown up and is no longer obedient."

Mrs. Ning sighed, his tone carrying a bit of helplessness. However, Gao Yiqing was able to hear that Mrs. Ning was trying to trick her, because they were all smart people, and naturally did not believe that they would be able to fall in love and get married in a short one month's time. It was normal that she would suspect.

Gao Yiqing didn't know how to explain it. She and Ning Zhe were only making a deal, and after a year, they would have nothing to do with each other. She couldn't say it now, but she couldn't think of a reasonable reason. Gao Yiqing was at a loss.

Knowing that she was in trouble, Ning Zhe immediately helped her out, "When did you two elders start worrying about me?"

"Can't you worry about marriage?"

Mrs. Ning went straight back to him. Originally, he thought that she would not let him off, but after she finished speaking, she unexpectedly changed the topic, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about when you're going to hold the wedding ceremony. I think there are a few things that are not bad …"

He could tell that Mrs. Ning was giving his son a lot of face, that he knew what to ask and what not to ask. He had asked about the crux of everything, even if Gao Yiqing didn't answer his son's question, he would still have some concerns.

As expected, this family wasn't easy to deal with. Some people looked gentle on the surface but were actually not easy to get along with. This was the feeling Ning Family two elders gave Gao Yiqing;

The atmosphere during dinner had become a lot more relaxed. Fortunately, with the presence of Ning Zhe, Mrs. Ning did not specifically pick any faults, and their words and actions all displayed a love for Gao Yiqing.

After the meal, Gao Yiqing originally wanted to help clean up, but Mrs. Ning reacted quickly and grabbed her hand, "Don't worry about that, I'll bring you to see a good thing."

He seemed to be in the middle of a conversation with old mister Ning, and seeing that she was worried, he forcefully pulled her along and left, "What's there to be afraid of, we'll be family in the future, can't tell that I'll be able to eat you?"

"That's not what I meant …" Gao Yiqing wanted to explain himself, but he completely ignored her, and directly pulled her into the study.

What was he trying to do? Why did he enter the study?

With doubt, Gao Yiqing stepped into the room. As soon as she entered, she heard the sound of a door closing. She turned around to see that it was Mrs. Ning who had casually closed the door.

Auntie, what is this?" Intuition told her that there was something wrong with Mrs. Ning's actions, but there was also something wrong. There was also a stranger in the study, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a white shirt.

"Miss Gao, please take a seat."

The moment he opened his mouth, Gao Yiqing was already understood in his heart. He was actually waiting for her here, it seemed that the people from Ning Family had already investigated her, and the online messages would inevitably make them worry.

He sat in front of her with an item in his hand. She had seen these people before, and if she did not guess, this person should be a private doctor invited by Mrs. Ning. His goal was to check her illness.

He didn't think that she would be so cooperative. That person was a little surprised, and walked over even with some doubts in her Mrs. Ning. She was a little astonished when she looked at the Gao Yiqing.

Just as the private doctor was preparing to check, the door was suddenly pushed open, Ning Zhe walked in with a cold face, and the pressure in the room instantly dropped. Even Mrs. Ning was shocked by his son.

Ning Zhe was rarely this angry, at least in front of his own parents they still paid attention to their limits.

"Why are you here, child? "I was just about to chat with Yi Qing."

He could simply hide it from others, but it was impossible to hide it from the Ning Zhe. He didn't say a single word, only glanced indifferently at the Mrs. Ning, then walked over to the side of the Gao Yiqing and pulled her along before leaving.

He grabbed her hand very tightly, with even a bit of caution. Gao Yiqing had never thought that she would be so angry, she opened her mouth wide under such low pressure, yet didn't say a single word.

After exiting the door, Mrs. Ning looked at the back of the figure as he lamented, "I just want to see if she is really sick, how can this child not worry."

"I already told you not to be so secretive. If you think you have any questions, you can ask Yi Qing directly. You want to make it look like this?"

Elder Ning sighed. He had just finished his work, yet he did not know things had turned out this way. Ning Zhe's actions had indeed surprised him, he did not expect this brat to actually be sincere. It seemed that their worries could be dispelled.

"You're blaming me. I was thinking for his sake." His Mrs. Ning was very aggrieved, and so he suffered a setback at his own son's hands. He turned his head and was scolded by Elder Ning, the difference in his heart was too great.

"Alright, let this matter pass like this. Don't interfere in the future."

"Not intervene?" "I'm not sure yet, just in case …" Mrs. Ning chattered nonstop, but under Elder Ning's gaze, they closed their mouths. Some things stop at that point, overdoing it would inevitably cause people to feel annoyed. They had always been upholding these principles, so they had never asked about Ning Zhe's marriage.

Gao Yiqing had never expected that Ning Zhe would actually take her directly out of the Ning Family, and she hadn't even bid her farewells to the two elders yet.

"We're leaving just like that?" she asked softly. Although Ning Zhe was angered by her, his angered appearance was truly frightening, and she did not dare to interrupt.

Hearing this, the Ning Zhe suddenly stopped, and turned to look at her, "I believe in you, so you have to believe in me too, with me here, no one can bully you."

The instant he said those words, the Gao Yiqing in her eyes turned red. She had never asked this person for any additional care, nor did she request for him to really give her anything, as long as the transaction was completed, it would be fine. But at this moment, she suddenly felt that her heartbeat had sped up, and a blurry image suddenly became clear in her mind.

She opened her mouth, but no words came out. She allowed him to pull her away.
