The Blind Lover

Chapter 23: Return

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Shi family was not brainless.

If the Ning family had chosen to break off the engagement deal just because Qin Yu was a fool, Qu Li would have prepared media exposure and started a fight with them. In that case, it would have been a battle to see who prevailed out of that thorny situation.

As such, they knew that the Ning family would have most likely chosen to keep the peace.

If they had wanted to kick Qin Yu out, they would have had to use more money to settle the matter. They would also risk having their secrets leaked to the Shi family through Qin Yu.

So what if the Ning family was powerful? When the time came, they could brand Qin Yu as a ‘poor little girl’ and use her to deal with them. They could even claim that Eldest Young Master Ning had abandoned her. Sometimes, the ideas that are birthed from imbeciles can be surprisingly brilliant.

Obviously, because they were inhumane.

Qin Yu smiled.

However, what would they be able to come up with that Ning Chen would not have already considered?

He was an impaired person who was still destined to be the future head of the family. If he didn’t have the innate ability to deal with a thousand twists and turns, then Old Master Ning must have misjudged him.

Ning Chen probably treated her well out of sympathy, but she knew that he would never let the Shi family off the hook.

Qin Yu was happy to wait and see. She was also extremely excited to step on them again when necessary.

These things had to be done step by step. She couldn’t afford to be in a hurry.

There was only one urgent issue left: how could she collect the medicine the doctor had prepared for her?

Last night, Ning Chen had not spent the night in her room, which had made her feel much more at ease.

Although she knew that he was a gentleman, it was impossible for him to avoid ever making a move, right?

He was a man after all, and they were a legitimate married couple!

She didn’t want to take the risk; she had to find a way to obtain the drug as soon as possible.

Sigh! To Qin Yu, freedom had always been the most precious thing, but it wasn’t something that she could buy, no matter how much money she had.

According to old Chinese traditions, newlyweds would have to return back to the bride’s family three days after the wedding to stay over for a few days.

However, Qin Yu felt that Ning Chen would definitely resent being the son-in-law of the Shi family, so she had happily figured that she wouldn’t have to go back to that place.

Unexpectedly, after breakfast, Qin Yu had just received a towel from Ah Bi to wipe her oily hands when she heard Ning Chen say, “Let’s pay a visit to the Shi family today.”

Qin Yu stopped everything she was doing.

He was actually willing to go to the Shi family?

“Brother, are you going to send me back?” she croaked, her voice a little shaky.

Uncle Wen and Sister Yu could not help but look at each other. Had she really been so traumatized by the people of the Shi family?

Ning Chen smiled and said gently, “You’re already a member of the Ning family. We won’t send you back.”

“Then, then why are we going?” Qin Yu asked carefully.

He muttered, “Didn’t you say that if you stayed with us, your mother would give you 1000 yuan? Let’s go and get this 1000 yuan back, okay?”

Ning Chen figured that she probably would not have understood even if he had explained it to her. She probably didn’t even know how marriage worked, so he decided to talk about what interested her most.

Qin Yu immediately became excited.

However, after thinking for a while, she whispered, “Brother, can you help me ask Mom for the money?”

“Why? Are you afraid that she’ll go back on her word?” Ning Chen asked.

“I’ve already spent a lot of money at home. It wasn’t easy for Mom and Dad to raise me.

“My... My sister said that when I grow up, it’ll be part of my duty to give money to the family. However, I don’t have money, and I don’t know how to earn. Without my sister, I can’t do anything.

“I... If I ask mom for another 1000 yuan, I’m afraid that my sister will be angry again. Although mom agreed, but... but...”

As she spoke, her voice gradually lowered. She seemed truly troubled.

Everything was happening so suddenly. Qin Yu did not know what she should do to remind Ning Chen that the Shi family would definitely take their visit as an opportunity to demand benefits from him.

She did not care if he was doing this out of sympathy for her, or if he was trying to use her as a shield, but she did not want to let her family use her to hurt anyone.

Moreover, he had been so good to her. If they wanted to pester him, it would be over her dead body.

Though, Ning Chen didn’t seem to understand what she meant.

“It doesn’t matter. What’s yours is yours. No one can deny it.

“Later, ask Ah Yu to accompany you to the mall below the company building to get some new clothes. Don’t always dress like a child, you’re already the eldest lady of the Ning family.

“Also, buy some gifts for your parents and sister. I’ll pick you up after the meeting.”

Qin Yu sighed in her heart. Forget it, she would take one step at a time. If it really didn’t work out, she could ask Dong Lai, Xi Wang, Nan Yuan and Bei Chi to secretly help out. She didn’t want to be dragged down into the abyss of the Shi family.

Ning Chen, Uncle Wen, and Sister Yu noticed how nervous she was, and collectively shared a thought.

Qin Yu was too innocent and kind.
