Scum Man Cannot Redeem Himself - Chapter 150

Chapter 150

“What’s your name?”

“Xiao …… Niqiu,” his words were broken.

Ning Qing smiled, pinched the child’s face, “Very cute name, ah! What about your parents?”

Speaking of parents, the little Niqiu’s eyes went red, “dead.”

Although Ning Qing made some preparations mentally, when heard in person, got sad for the child. A child so young without parents must have incurred a lot of grievances.

Ning Qing said comfortingly, “It’s okay, the little Niqiu’s parents are watching you in heaven. You have to be good, don’t let them worry, okay?”

He nodded. Ning Qing was so gentle, so he got more courage and said, “Sister, I do not go to the welfare home.”

Ning Qing asked, “Why? You are still young, you need to read!”

He said, “There are bad people in the welfare home, sometimes they scold us and do not give us food.”

So that was the case.

“Do you know which welfare you were in?”

“Linyuan County.”

Linyuan County was over in Fuqing City, two days away from Clear Water village.

Ning Qing was relieved. She almost thought it was the welfare home under Flower Boss’s name that had this incident. Thankfully it was not.

“So, you were sold?”

Xiao Niqiu nodded and timidly said to Ning Qin, “Sister, they are all very nice and give me cakes to eat, but I know that they all have to listen to you. So, I want to beg you to take me in. I can do some work and will not eat for nothing.”

This child had known the master and servant relationship so early. Ning Qing looked at the child’s pitiful appearance, but finally could not be hardhearted to send him away.

“Okay, I believe you. You must be obedient. But my house is small. I have to find a place for you to live.”

Hearing that Ning Qing was willing to keep him, a smile appeared on the child’s face for the first time.

After the child left, Ning Qing called the guard and asked him to leave immediately to the welfare home in Linyuan County to find out if what the child said was true.

After that, she asked Sister Xiuping to discuss with Nier’s mother to see if Xiao Niqui could temporarily live in their home for a period of time, and one incense stick later, Sister Xiuping replied that Aunt Daqiang agreed.

Ning Qing gave some silver to Xiuping to buy some winter clothes for the child. Xiuping was childless, so she took care of him like her child and they settled down.

They were all happy to have a new member, but the news brought back from the welfare made Ning Qing uncomfortable.

There was no welfare home in Linyuan County, and the previous one was abandoned years ago because no one was willing to donate.

Why did this child lie? Ning Qing did not do anything and instructed Xiuping to observe the child for a period of time. At the same time, she asked the welfare home to find someone to secretly investigate the child’s origins.

……

In the early winter, people were wearing winter clothes, and the morning breath could form a white mist.

He had not come for many days, and Ning Qing was in a trance when she saw him, thinking that her eyes were blurry.

He lifted the curtain to come in with cold air. The dew on his robe around him met the heat of the room, rising up thin and shallow smoke.

“How come you …… are so early?” Ning Qing’s voice was trembling. It was so cold, ah!

Yang Junhan smiled gently and walked to Ning Qing, “I was passing by so I came to visit you. I will leave immediately to go on a trip to Li Zhou.”

Ning Qing looked at him. The thick black eyelashes had cold dew still hung on it but the eyes were hot like a blazing fire. She could feel the deep love in the eyes of the man in front of her, a warm current crossed her heart. It felt good to be loved and cherished.

“Did you ride a horse? Why not take a carriage?” Ning Qing asked with concern. Her hand naturally held his cold hand, trying to transfer warmth to him.

“Things were a little urgent, and the carriage was slow.”

He saw Ning Qing’s affection and his eyes were full of tenderness. He took her small hand to his lips, breathing out hard to warm her cold hand.

Ning Qing looked at his childish but warm-hearted action with the same affectionate look back at him, the corners of the mouth had a nice curve.

The two of them look at each other with affection. Time seemed to be frozen.

When Chen Jili picked up the curtain, he saw such a scene. He was like a third party who suddenly intruded into the world of a couple he should not intrude. His arrival did not attract the attention of the two people in the room. They only had each other in their eyes. There was no room for others. Chen Jili gloomily put down the curtain and turned away. The dew condensed on the eyebrows like tears sliding down.

His heart was broken.

The first time he stepped into the courtyard, he saw Yang Junhan’s attendants carrying things in boxes, and then looked at the things in his hands.

The company’s main goal was to provide a comprehensive range of products and services to the public.

He saw a snow-white fox fur, spotless and elegant, hanging in the most conspicuous place, and thought that if Ning Qing wore it, it would be extremely beautiful and warm.

He immediately bought it, causing a crowd of women to marvel at the high price of silver. The shopkeeper saw that he was so generous, but also joked that it must be given to his beloved one.

He replied, “It’s for my wife.” 

The women in the store were envious.
