Hearing the name “Ning Yao”, Xu Junxi stiffened and quickly let go of her hand and looked back.

There was no one behind him.

There was a sneer of mockery by his ear. When Xu Junxi looked back again, Ning Qing caressed her wrist with one hand while she left without looking back.

Xu Junxi clenched his fists tightly, and fury bubbled through his chest. He chased after her with quick steps and his big palms pinned Ning Qing’s shoulder down and pressed her against the wall.

Ning Qing looked at Xu Junxi with clear eyes, her little face turning cold. “Xu Junxi, are you a psychopath? You’re not going to be content unless you harass me by being intimate with me, are you? Please clarify what on earth you want to do once and for all.”

“Harass? Hah, Ning Qing, are you even fit to use this word! I’m the one who wants to ask you what you really want to do, why do you have to fight Yao Yao in every way, why do you always appear in front of me?”

“Ha, haha…” Ning Qing looked up and laughed loudly three times. She thought it was ridiculous. Putting aside the fact that she wasn’t fighting with Ning Yao. So what if she did?

Compared with Ning Yao who’d destroyed her home, she hadn’t even gotten back the interest with what she was doing now.

“Xu Junxi, if your Yao Yao is good enough, I won’t be able to steal it from her even if I wanted to. She lacks the skills, and yet you still have the face to blame others for it?” Ning Qing retorted.

“You…” Xu Junxi was dumbfounded, he then laughed scornfully, “Ning Qing, why are you targeting Yao Yao so much? Is it because she’d stolen me from you? I’ve already told you, we’ll never be together again, I won’t come back to you.”

This time Ning Qing didn’t know if she should laugh or cry, Xu Junxi’s narcissism had refreshed her worldview once again.

Ning Qing stood up straight and looked at him seriously. “Xu Junxi, do you know how lucky I feel to have been late for the date with you three years ago? People say that men need to tested, look, haven’t I got the results now? In this case, I should really thank Ning Yao, thank her for taking you, and not letting you harm me.”

Three years ago, she had the face to mention three years ago?

Doesn’t she feel any guilt about being late for that date?

Xu Junxi gritted his teeth, his handsome cheeks trembling fiercely, the deep desire for blood blanketed his eyes lightly, his huge palms shaking Ning Qing’s shoulders uncontrollably, as he roared – –

“Ning Qing, don’t you dare mention what happened three years ago! You are no longer the simple girl who loved to wear sweaters and jeans. You are no longer the Qingqing who likes to call me brother Junxi while smiling sweetly. Look at your sharp and mean appearance now, you’ve lost her, you’re the one who has lost my Qingqing!”

“Ning Qing, you give her back to me, you give my Qingqing back to me!”

Ning Qing was feeling dizzy and faint from his shaking. “Xu Junxi, I’ll say it again for the last time. I’m not the one who has changed, it’s you. Let go of me, let go! ”

Not only did Xu Junxi not let go, but he also looked at her red lips and white teeth, and immediately bent down to cover her lips, he wanted to kiss her so fiercely that she would not be able to breathe.

Ning Qing had her guard up all along. The moment he bowed his head, she reached out her hand and gave him a sound slap on the face.

Xu Junxi was stunned by the slap.

The sharp pain on his cheek brought him back to his senses, and he touched the corner of his mouth with his hand, where blood was trickling out.

Ning Qing glanced at him coldly. “Xu Junxi, if this happens again, I’ll sue you for sexual harassment.”

Ning Qing turned around and left.

But she’d failed to walk away, as her bruised wrist was trapped once again.

This time Ning Qing really felt that she didn’t have to endure it if she could not bear it any longer. She raised her voice and said sharply, “Xu Junxi…”

“Ning Qing…” Behind him, the man called out to her in a low voice, the violence had faded, and his voice was full of fatigue and vicissitudes. “If, I said if, if I can return to your side…”

Ning Qing stared at him.

The dim light in the corridor hit the man in black as he stood there, elongating his shadow. His eyes that were looking at her were grey, and her image was reflected ever so brightly in his grey pupils.

Ning Qing was in a trance for a moment. She didn’t understand what he’d meant by “can return to your side.” She only knew that the past would never repeat itself.

“Xu Junxi, Ning Yao’s here, behind you… I’m serious this time…”

Xu Junxi’s body jolted, but he still clamped onto her wrist, using less and less strength but refusing to let go.

“Junxi, Junxi…” The voice that was as sweet as a nightingales came closer from afar behind him. Ning Qing did not struggle but just looked at him with a pair of clear bright eyes.

Ning Qing watched as complex feelings trickled out from his grey eyes, struggling between love and hate, he was evading them, then finally, he let her go.

Without restraint, Ning Qing drew her wrist back. One side of her lips curled up as she smiled sarcastically.

Ning Yao ran to Xu Junxi and hooked his arm. He’d gone to the bathroom for a long time. She came out to look for him and immediately saw that he was with Ning Qing.

He was clamping down on her wrist and refusing to let go.

“Junxi, you’ve been gone for so long, I was worried. Turns out you were with older sister. Older sister, are you alone? Would you like to have dinner with us?” Ning Yao asked, pretending to be kind.

Ning Qing had no intention of going along with her act. She turned around and went down the stairs.

But after two steps, Ning Yao ran in front of her and blocked her way. She reached for her hand and held it. “Older sister, why are you ignoring me? I’ve already given you the female lead of the “Dust and Wind” today. Are you angry again?”

Ning Qing’s head pounded. Ning Yao and Xu Junxi were a match made in heaven in terms of shamelessness.

Ning Qing lifted the corner of her lips, and her delicate little face was bright as she said. “Alright, I’ll request Director Wang to give the role of the female lead back to you again, but does Director Wang want you?”

Ning Yao’s expression was stiff as embarrassment and resentment flashed in her eyes.

Ning Qing looked at her scornfully, bypassed her and went down the stairs.

“Older sister, I know I was wrong. Since we’ve happened to meet today, let’s have dinner together.” Ning Yao ran in front of Ning Qing again and began to tug on Ning Qing’s sleeve.

Ning Qing stood still. She looked at Ning Yao, a shadow of a smile on her face. Ning Yao was standing on the stairs now and tugging at her agitatedly. Could she be thinking of putting on an act and incriminating her again?

As expected, with a soft “ah”, Ning Yao loosened her hold on Ning Qing’s sleeve fell backward

“Yao Yao!” Behind her came Xu Junxi’s anxious cry.

Ning Yao sneered, Xu Junxi was standing behind them and was unable to see the specific situation. As long as she fell down the stairs, Xu Junxi would be furious and think that Ning Qing had pushed her down the stairs.

Of course, she was not stupid, this flight of stairs had more than 20 steps and was very long, she would not really fall down the stairs, she’d reached out and gripped onto the handrail of the stairs when she was falling backward.

Everything was going according to plan.

However, Ning Yao’s pupils dilated in pain. The hand which she’d reached out to grab onto the handrail had been gripped onto in the flash of an eye. Ning Qing’s voice of concern rang out, “Ning Yao, be careful!”

Ning Qing had grabbed onto Ning Yao’s hand.

Ning Yao’s entire heart sank, would Ning Qing be so kind?

The next moment, Ning Qing’s grip loosened and Ning Yao’s body suspended in midair. The world spun and Ning Yao cried out “Ah” in excruciating pain as her head came into contact with the ground.

But her “ah” was covered by another “ah”, Ning Qing was also screaming.

Ning Yao wanted to curse. Come on, what was she screaming about?

She was the one who’d been hurt!

Ning Yao rolled down more than twenty layers of stairs like a ball without resistance. Her head hit the handrail uncontrollably in the middle. When she stopped, thick blood flowed down her forehead and stained her eyelashes which she’d spent a long time putting on mascara on in the morning.

“Yao Yao…” Xu Junxi quickly ran to Ning Yao and hugged her in his arms. “Yaoyao, are you okay? Where does it hurt?”

Ning Yao could not utter a single word, she was almost fainting from the pain, that b*itch Ning Qing!

She slowly extended her finger and pointed to Ning Qing.

Xu Junxi followed Ning Yao’s fingers and saw Ning Qing, who was perfectly fine, standing on the stairs, but her face was pale and her hands still covered her mouth in shock, as if she had been greatly agitated.

Xu Junxi’s reproachful words died instantaneously in his throat. Ning Qing was going to save Ning Yao. He’d seen them.

“I… I… She fell so fast that I couldn’t hold on to her.” Ning Qing’s lips trembled as she looked at Xu Junxi with a pair of autumn pupils that shone with weakness.

Ning Yao was speechless, “…”

Xu Junxi carried Ning Yao horizontally and ran downstairs. “Someone, call an ambulance.”

When the two disappeared from Ning Qing’s sight, Ning Qing put her hand down. The corners of her lips lifted calmly and unhurriedly. She’d wanted to compete with her in terms of acting skills, fine then, she would take her on right to the very end!

…

In the hospital.

The doctor dressed Ning Yao’s injury on her head. Her body was not badly injured, but there were blue and purple bruises on her arms and thighs, they were very painful superficial injuries.

For the first time ever, Ning Yao experienced what it was like for a dumb man to eat bitter herbs, only able to suffer in silence.

Xu Junxi guided her to the elevator with his arms wrapped around her shoulders. She was not willing to let Ning Qing off just like that. So she opened her mouth and spoke carefully in a wronged tone. “Junxi, why didn’t my older sister hold onto me? Had she not wanted to save me at all?”

The pale, small face appeared in Xu Junxi’s mind. He frowned, and his voice was a little heavy as he said. “I saw it when Ning Qing was going to hold onto you… Alright, you go home and have a good rest. Don’t wear such high heels in the future. It’s autumn now. If you are injured in the summer, the entire crew would have to stop work and wait for you.”

What had he meant by that, comforting her perfunctorily, and complaining that she wasn’t sensible enough and had caused him trouble.

But Ning Yao dared not refute, she nodded cutely, “Ok.”

They didn’t talk anymore along the way. When they reached the elevator, Ning Yao suddenly saw a mother-daughter pair walking forward from the side. Her eyes shone brightly as her gloomy mood became sunny instantly.

Ning Qing held onto Yue Wanqing’s arm and said softly, “Mom, are you tired? Let’s just walk two rounds and lie back down in the ward.”

Yue Wanqing patted Ning Qing’s little hand. “Mom’s not tired. Mom needs to recover early. I live in this hospital every day. The medical expenses alone are already very high. Although you say there is medical aid, we can’t keep eating away at the state’s money.”

Ning Qing smiled and did not reply to her comment about medical aid.

At this time, a voice as sweet as a nightingale’s rang out, “Auntie…”

Yue Wanqing and Ning Qing looked back and saw that Xu Junxi and Ning Yao were standing not too far away.
