Chapter 558: Doing Anything All for Him_1

“If you don’t want to speak up, then ask someone else for help.”

Nangong Xu truly didn’t want to get involved in this matter.

Although, it was obvious she was genuinely panicked.

In all this time they’ve known each other, he’d rarely seen Nangong Yun this flustered.

But, even when she was on the edge of doom, she still refused to explain what was going on.

How was he supposed to help?

“Brother, I… I…”

Seeing his continued irritation, Nangong Yun gritted her teeth.

Finally, with a hoarse voice, she told him everything.

“You and Lu Xuening plotted to harm Baili Xia?”

Nangong Xu never thought that she would make such a severe mistake.

And this matter, has already been exposed in the Dongfang Family.

Suddenly, he breathed an unexpected sigh of relief.

He was involved in this too.

He was the one who gave Dongfang Jin’s information to Nangong Yun.

Thankfully, Baili Xia was fine, or else, he would’ve been guilt-ridden for the rest of his life.

“You scoundrel! How could you be so vicious as to do something like this?”

He stood up, trying to pull his hand free.

But, Nangong Yun clung to him even tighter.

Panicked, she was near tears.

“Brother, you know, you know how I hate that woman.

And you also know that all these years, I’ve been loving Mr.

Xiaojiu.”

“Mr.

Xiaojiu never liked you,” Nangong Xu said calmly.

Nangong Yun clung to him even tighter.

“But I like him, I really like him.

You can see that, can’t you?

I did everything for him.”

“But this doesn’t mean that you have the right to harm innocent people just to get him.”

What does love mean?

Is loving someone about doing everything possible to keep them by your side?

Does she even know what love is?

“Brother, it’s too late for you to lecture me now.”

Nangong Yun was truly panicked for the first time.

With Lu Xuening overthrown, she’d certainly spill all sorts of nonsense to Dongfang Jin, maybe even defame her.

Even if many things weren’t her doing, under the current situation, Mr.

Xiaojiu would certainly never trust her again.

If Lu Xuening says something detrimental to her, she’ll definitely be killed by Mr.

Xiaojiu.

Mr.

Xiaojiu, she loved him deeply, yet was also deeply afraid of him.

The way he did things wasn’t something ordinary people could bear.

“Brother, I beg you, tell them that I risked my life to save Mr.

Xiaojiu.

Brother, I beg you!”

“You want me to lie.

I can’t do that,” Nangong Xu coldly snorted, then moved his leg again.

But Nangong Yun still held on tightly, refusing to let go.

“Brother, you just need to keep quiet, that’s all. I don’t need you to speak, but you have to help me.”

Nangong Xu remained silent.

Keeping quiet was the same thing as implicitly agreeing, right?

What difference would it make compared to lying with her?

“Brother, did Father not instruct you to take good care of me, protect me before he passed away?

Is this how you keep his last wish?”

“Brother, don’t you care about Father anymore?”

“Don’t bring up Father.

His name coming from your mouth only tarnishes his reputation,” Nangong Xu angrily said.

Who doesn’t know what kind of person their father was?

He was upright and honorable, he only made one mistake in his life—he had two wives.

But in his practice of medicine and dealings with people, he was always just and incorruptible.

A man like their father, how could he give birth to a daughter like Nangong Yun?

Where did she learn this vicious and scheming conduct?

But Nangong Yun still pleaded.

“Brother, I was wrong, I really was.

But brother, you must save me this time.”

“You don’t want to watch me die, do you?”
