Lv Zhiwen got up and left the room. When he went downstairs, he bumped into Mu Ning Jing, who had gone to the kitchen to get some water.
Mu Ning Jing saw Lv Zhiwen coming downstairs. She hurriedly moved to the side of the stairs as if she wanted to press herself against the handrail to reduce her presence.
Lv Zhiwen stopped beside Mu Ning Jing. Seeing that she was afraid of him, he was a little unhappy. "Ningning, come here."
Mu Ning Jing looked up at Lv Zhiwen and shook her head.
Lv Zhiwen frowned slightly. His voice deepened. "Have you forgotten what you promised me?"
Mu Ning Jing tightened her grip on the cup. She looked up at the stairs, then looked away and slowly approached Lv Zhiwen.
Lv Zhiwen waited until Mu Ning Jing came to his side. He reached out and patted her head lovingly. Then his hand landed on her shoulder. "Dad has something to do. I have to go. Take good care of your classmate."
Mu Ning Jing's body stiffened. She nodded. "Okay."
"Some things should be said, but don't say things that shouldn't be said. You know the consequences if you make Dad angry." Lv Zhiwen smiled, but his eyes were cold.
Mu Ning Jing couldn't help but tremble slightly. "I know."
"Okay." Lv Zhiwen patted Mu Ning Jing's shoulder gently. "Go upstairs."
Mu Ning Jing froze on the stairs. She heard Lv Zhiwen's footsteps go downstairs, then leave the living room and close the door. His voice disappeared. Mu Ning Jing's tense body finally relaxed.
In the room, Zhao Xiangping saw Lv Zhiwen leave. She looked at Shuxin and smiled. "Ningning said you took good care of her in school. Now you let her work at your company. Auntie wants to thank you."
Shuxin smiled and shook her head. "Auntie, you're too polite. We're just helping each other."
"Ningning is a poor child …" Zhao Xiangping's eyes suddenly turned red. "She didn't have a good day with me. I'm sorry for her. You don't know how happy she is when she talks about you in front of me. Only when she talks about you do I feel that my Ningning is alive …"
When Shuxin heard these words, she felt inexplicably sad. Her family was obviously so well-off. Why was Mu Ning Jing so unhappy? It was as if the whole world had abandoned her. She asked curiously, "Auntie, why do you say that?"
Zhao Xiangping looked at Shuxin, wanting to say something but hesitated.
Shuxin could also see that Zhao Xiangping's eyes were filled with the desire to express herself. Her emotions were very strong. "Auntie, if there's anything you want to say to me, just say it. If there's anything you need my help with, don't hesitate."
Hearing Shuxin's words, the hesitation in Zhao Xiangping's eyes disappeared. After a few seconds of silence, she said, "I do have a favor to ask. Can you help my Ningning …"
"Mom." Mu Ning Jing pushed the door open and came in with a glass of water, interrupting Zhao Xiangping.
Zhao Xiangping looked at Mu Ning Jing who came in and the tears in her eyes fell. "Ningning, I think …"
"Mom, are you tired?" Mu Ning Jing put the glass of water in her hand on the coffee table in front of Shuxin. Then she walked to the bedside and sat down. She held Zhao Xiangping's hand. "Mom, let's sleep for a while."
"Ningning …" Zhao Xiangping looked at Mu Ning Jing with tears streaming down her face. "Let's try again …"
Mu Ning Jing shook her head with red eyes. "You're tired. Sleep for a while."
