Ling Luo looked at Xiao Zi Xuan and sighed helplessly: “Xuan’er, let’s go. I’ve come to take you home.”
“Okay.” Xiao Zi Xuan looked up and smiled at him, but her smile looked somewhat fragile.
Ning Meng Yao listened to Qing Xuan’s report with a faint smile on her face: “Yes, that’s good.”
“Go and have someone keep an eye on Yang Xiu Er.” Ning Meng Yao slammed her palm on her desk and ordered coldly.
Qing Xuan nodded before leaving.
With one hand on her chin, Ning Meng Yao glanced down and her mouth slightly twitched. Now Xiao Zi Xuan shouldn’t have time to deal with me anymore, right?
Because of the robbery incident, Yang Zhu and his wife didn’t allow Yang Le Le to leave the house, even if her injuries were almost recovered.
“Yao Yao, you’re finally here! I wanted to go to your place, but my parents won’t allow me to.” Seeing Ning Meng Yao coming in, Yang Le Le quickly sat up and started complaining.
Ning Meng Yao went to Yang Le Le’s side and sat down with a smile: “You don’t have to trouble yourself with coming over to my place for now.”
“Why?” Yang Le Le didn’t understand.
Her parents forbid her to go outside, but why did Yao Yao not allow her as well?
“Because this matter hasn’t been completely resolved yet. If you leave now, you could encounter the same incident.” Ning Meng Yao reached out and helped to tidy Yang Le Le’s hair.
Yang Le Le was dumbfounded. She stared at Ning Meng Yao in disbelief: “Am I that unlucky?” I couldn’t possibly be robbed twice and in such a short period as well.
“That wasn’t a real robbery.” Ning Meng Yao didn’t know how to explain it to her, so she could only helplessly answer her.
Yang Le Le was still staring at Ning Meng Yao, unable to comprehend what she said, “I still don’t understand.”
“What’s so hard to understand?”
“If it wasn’t a robbery, then what was it?”
“Someone had planned it. Otherwise, why would they specifically target you when there were so many other people on that road? Haven’t you also said that there were some people who went through that road before you?” Ning Meng Yao thought about it, and finally, she decided to explain it to Yang Le Le. It was easier that way.
Yang Le Le thought for a moment about what she had just heard. Indeed what she said made sense: “There were even two carriages in front of us.”
“Exactly. Those people were targeting you and their purpose was to kill you.”
“Impossible, I’ve never offended anyone.” Yang Le Le was a little scared after listening to Ning Meng Yao, but then she felt that something was off. She didn’t offend anyone, so why was someone after her life?
Looking at Yang Le Le’s doubtful and fearful expression, Ning Meng Yao explained: “Actually their ultimate goal was me.”
“Ah? Why?”
“If you really had an accident, and someone decided to stir up some trouble from it, then Uncle and Aunty would definitely doubt me. By then, the issue would surely be brought to the county, and if I’m judged at the county, what would the final result be? I don’t think that I need to explain more. Le Le, you should understand the final result.” Ning Meng Yao revealed to Le Le her investigation results and their guesses.
Ning Meng Yao’s words changed the expressions on Yang Zhu and Madame Yang’s faces. It was indeed true that if something more serious happened to Le Le, there would definitely be many gossips and that would surely lead to them getting angry at Ning Meng Yao. What would happen after that, they themselves weren’t sure as well.
“Just who is it? To be this vicious.” In order to deal with Ning Meng Yao, he or she actually planned to harm innocent people.
“This is also my fault.” Ning Meng Yao blamed herself.
Yang Le Le was innocent. If it wasn’t due to Le Le having a good relationship with Ning Meng Yao, she wouldn’t have gotten injured.
Seeing Ning Meng Yao blaming herself, Yang Le Le quickly grabbed hold of her hand and said eagerly: “How can I blame you? It’s those people who are at fault.” How can such a good person like Yao Yao offend others? Certainly it was those people’s fault.
What Yang Le Le said was right.
Yang Zhu looked at the two, and felt helpless: “Meng Yao, don’t blame yourself. You’ve helped our family so much, that we couldn’t possibly blame you.” Those people who troubled her were to be blamed.
Ning Meng Yao looked at Yang Zhu and his family and smiled. If this incident had happened to any other family, she might have been kicked out by now. They wouldn’t have tried to comfort her. Glancing at their caring faces, Ning Meng Yao suddenly felt that she owed them much more than before.
