My Unpopular Neighbor Girl Has Hidden Identities-Chapter 86, I will protect her well
Chapter 86: 86, I will protect her well
Qin Yushen’s car had just reached the alley entrance when he spotted Yang Xin’er and Zhang Xiaoling hurriedly coming out, causing his brow to furrow involuntarily. Considering their attitude towards Xiao Ning yesterday, their visit here was unlikely to bode well.
Releasing his Divine Sense, he scanned the courtyard and a slight smile appeared on the corner of Qin Yushen’s mouth.
He waited until Yang Xin’er and Zhang Xiaoling passed by his car and got into theirs before Qin Yushen finally opened his door and stepped out of his car. He was not afraid of Yang Xin’er and her companion, but he felt there was no need to greet them.
Hearing a knock from outside, Li Meixiang thought it was Zhang Xiaoling and Yang Xin’er returning and sighed helplessly as she went to open the door.
"Grandma Yang!" Qin Yushen greeted Li Meixiang with a smile, also handing over the items he was carrying to her.
"You child, why did you still bring things over? Come inside quickly, Xiao Ning is already prepared." Li Meixiang smiled as she took the items and ushered Qin Yushen inside.
"Alright." Qin Yushen nodded and stepped into the courtyard. He had only mentioned yesterday that he would pick up Song Yan Ning today and had not disclosed to her that he was also accompanying her to the Miao Border. The girl was still wary of him, and if she knew he was going too, she might change her mind about going.
Upon hearing the noise outside, Song Yan Ning knew that Qin Yushen had arrived and stood up to tell Yang Lisheng, "Grandpa, I’m going to grab the luggage." She had prepared her luggage last night. It was her first solo trip since coming to this world, and she felt a hint of excitement.
"Luggage? You guys are leaving?" Mr. Song looked astonished at Yang Lisheng. Hadn’t they mentioned just yesterday that they would stay in Beijing for a while?
"No, it’s Xiao Ning who is going on a trip." Yang Lisheng put down his teacup and picked up the teapot from the table, refilling the tea for Mr. Song and himself.
"Going on a trip? By herself?" Mr. Song was even more surprised.
"No, Mr. Qin has arranged for Liu Qingshan to accompany Xiao Ning. To cure Madam Qin’s illness, a specific medicine is needed, and it’s only available in the Miao Border," explained Yang Lisheng. He had thought Mr. Qin would have mentioned it to Mr. Song yesterday.
"But Xiao Ning is only seven years old. Are you really comfortable letting her go alone?" Mr. Song disagreed. Even with Liu Qingshan accompanying her, so what? The Miao Border was fraught with dangers. Who could predict what dangers they might encounter or guarantee Xiao Ning’s safety?
"I’m also worried, but that child is stubborn. Once she decides to go, there’s no use in trying to persuade her otherwise," Yang Lisheng sighed. Xiao Ning was the treasure of their family; how could he not be worried?
Mr. Song pondered for a moment. "Perhaps I should send a couple more people with her?" He had a few capable men around him with good kung fu skills, and with their protection, he would feel more at ease about Xiao Ning’s safety.
"Grandpa Yang! Grandpa Song!" Qin Yushen greeted the two men as he walked into the room.
"Come, have a seat. Xiao Ning has gone to fetch her luggage," said Yang Lisheng. Xiao Ning had only packed a few pieces of clothing, which was why he did not assist her.
Qin Yushen sat down at the table, looking at Mr. Song, "Grandpa Song, rest assured! I will ensure Xiao Ning’s safety." He had overheard their conversation. As a Cultivator, his hearing was naturally beyond that of ordinary people. If he wished, he could hear everything within a ten-li radius.
"Still, the Miao Border is too dangerous. I think I will send a few more people to accompany you," Mr. Song felt that having his own people along would be safer.
"No need," Qin Yushen was about to speak when Song Yan Ning’s voice came from behind him.
Song Yan Ning walked up to the trio of Qin Yushen, "Too many people would be a burden." If it wasn’t to reassure her grandparents, she would have gone alone. Although young, her combat skills were strong; as long as she wasn’t facing a cultivator, she wouldn’t bat an eye facing eight or ten burly men.
"But you’ve never traveled far, you don’t know the dangers out there," Mr. Song persuaded.
"Grandpa Song! Grandpa Yang! I promise you, I’ll ensure Xiao Ning returns unharmed," Qin Yushen earnestly assured Mr. Song and Yang Lisheng, even if it meant getting hurt himself, he would keep her safe from any harm. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"Xiao Ning, Grandma is also worried," Li Meixiang looked anxiously at Song Yan Ning, hesitation in her eyes. It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Xiao Shen, but the world was unpredictable, and no one could know what might happen next.
Song Yan Ning took Li Meixiang’s arm, "Grandma! I’ll call everyday to check in, don’t worry. Alright, it’s getting late; I must go now."
With that, Song Yan Ning picked up her luggage and quickly headed towards the door, "Grandpa, Grandma, I’m leaving. Qin Yushen, hurry." If she stayed any longer, her grandparents might change their minds, and she wouldn’t be able to leave.
"Grandpa Yang! Grandma Yang! Grandpa Song! We’re leaving," Qin Yushen stood up, bade farewell to the trio including Yang Lisheng, and followed Song Yan Ning with a pleasant smile on his lips. This girl was really adorable!
Watching the two leave, Mr. Song felt a trace of melancholy. Xiao Ning hadn’t said goodbye to him, nor had she called him "grandpa." He wondered when she would finally accept him as her grandfather.
"Let me carry that," Qin Yushen walked up to Song Yan Ning and took the luggage from her hand.
Song Yan Ning didn’t refuse and handed over the luggage to Qin Yushen, "Are we heading to your place now?"
"We’re going straight to the airport," Qin Yushen smiled at Song Yan Ning. Grandpa had already arranged a private plane, and they could take off as soon as they arrived.
"You’re coming too?" Song Yan Ning turned to look at Qin Yushen.
"Of course, didn’t I just promise your grandparents that I would protect you?" Qin Yushen replied as if it were obvious, a sly sparkle in the depths of his eyes.
Song Yan Ning rolled her eyes, speechless. If it weren’t her first time traveling far, she would not have wanted to go with him. Although she had greatly changed her opinion of Qin Yushen, she still preferred to keep her distance.
As the car sped down the road, Yang Xin’er listlessly looked out the window.
She felt an itch on her face and scratched it, discovering what seemed like a pimple, and quickly pulled a mirror out of her bag.
Opening the makeup mirror, seeing her reflection, Yang Xin’er couldn’t help but scream. Why had so many pimples appeared on her face?
Zhang Xiaoling, who had been resting her eyes, was startled awake by Yang Xin’er’s scream and looked at her displeased, only to be shocked herself, "What happened to your face?"
"I don’t know, how did I suddenly get so many pimples? Mom, come with me to the hospital," Yang Xin’er put down the mirror and turned to look at Zhang Xiaoling.
