Chapter 40 (2/2)

“Little girl…”

As Ning Yuan walked towards her slowly, Weiai’s blood-covered body made his heart ache.

She must have been terrified and hence, was behaving like a hurt animal who had lost all strength and was weeping.

“Stay away.”

Weiai insisted, turning the knife to face him and becoming even more guarded.

Ning Yuan was educated in human psychology. He could tell that she was in fear. So, he said comfortingly, “Little girl, look, it is me! Ning Yuan! I am here to save you, not to hurt you.”

His voice was gentle and warm.

Weiai opened her eyes in shock and looked at the man’s angel-like face. She suddenly realized that the man in her heart was also as warm as him. She could no longer withstand it. Weiai leaned on the wall and slowly fell to the ground as she realized that she was finally out of hell.

Ning Yuan walked forward carefully and reached his hands out towards her in pity.

Weiai did not let go of the knife. It was obvious that she was still on her guard.

However, as she looked up at the man and made sure that he did not mean any harm, she reached out and placed a hand onto his. She felt dizzy and the injuries on her body were stinging in pain. This made her voice weak.

However, as Ning Yuan was beside her, he could make out some of her words. “Ning Yuan… save me… I am scared…”

At that moment, as he looked at the face that resembled Tong Hua, pain pierced his heart.

“Little girl, don’t be scared. I am here.”

As he said that, he reached out to rearrange Weiai’s clothes. He then moved his hands down and carried her in his arms.

Su Meiya was shocked at the sight, and it only worsened her hatred for Weiai.

As Ning Yuan made to leave with Weiai in his arms, coldness crept up his heart as he walked past the two bodyguards. Hence, he turned around and wanted to punish them. However, Weiai, who was in his arms, began to tremble when she saw them and she tightened her arms around his neck.

He realized her fear. Ning Yuan stopped in his tracks and said coldly, “Touch her? I think the both of you are looking for death!”
