Chapter 76

ought back memories of her days as a young girl, by her parents' side.Màn Huā couldn't help but redden her eyes, Níng Yuán was truly very thoughtful.If anyone is able to help that girl, she should hel...There was a moment of silence in the air.

Rong Zhaonan looked at her: "Haven't you eaten"

Ning Yuan touched her stomach and smiled awkwardly: "No, I didn't think about it after leaving the police station. I just worried about how to get back to the village. Let's have some cookies in a while."

Rong Zhaonan suddenly got up, walked to the table, and opened the lids of several lunch boxes on the table: "I left you some food, eat it."

Ning Yuan took a look. A bowl was full of fragrant diced meat fried rice, as well as a dish of sour pickled water spinach and a bowl of clam vegetable soup.

It's truly a feast for the senses, and it's also very nutritious.

She reached out and touched the bowl, it was still warm. She was incredibly surprised: "It's hot Did you keep it warm for me all this time"

But how could he know when she would be back, and how could he know if she had eaten It only showed that he was keeping some warm.

I didn't expect that even someone so powerful, who could wield a gun and red-headed documents, would also have such a caring side!

Ning Yuan couldn't help but look at Rong Zhao Nan.

He lowered his eyes, pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said expressionlessly, "I cooked a bit more food tonight. It's not for you specifically."

Ning Yuan's heart was warmed, her eyes curved into a big smile as she beamed at him: "Thank you!"

He can wait for her at the village gate, worried about her safety. A tough guy on the outside, but soft-hearted inside!

Looking at the girl's sparkling eyes, Rong Zhaonan hummed lightly: "Go wash your hands, you're all dirty."

Ning Yuan smiled and turned to say in an excited voice, "Good!"

When she came out of the washroom, sat down and started eating with Rong Zhaonan, she told him about what happened today.

Looking at Ning Yuan eating with relish, not a single dish left behind, Rong ZhaoNan felt a strange warmth in his heart for some reason.

Just like when he was a child, feeding his favorite imported Angora rabbit and watching it eat with relish. That sense of satisfaction.

After finishing dinner, Ning Yuan went to take a shower and came out. It was already deep in the night, and she was so tired that she climbed into bed.

Rong Zhaonan had already lain down on the bed, and suddenly said: "From now on, you can go to the city to sell mountain goods on weekends. I'll have Chen Chen look after you and send you back. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous."

Ning Yuan yawned: "No, even if you are comrades-in-arms, it's not good to trouble others all the time. I will be careful when I go out."

Rong Zhaonan said faintly, "He owed me a great favor in the past, and he still has something to ask of me. It's not troublesome for him."

Ning Yuan rubbed her eyes and muttered, “Oh well, he's probably thinking of his mother because he came home so late...”

Rong Zhao Nan: “...”

He turned to her, "Ningyuan, listen."

Ning Yuan was so sleepy she couldn't understand what he was saying anymore, just mumbling incoherently and pulling the blanket tighter: "Oh...oh...it's a little cold today..."

Well, winter has arrived, it's getting a bit cold.

Rong Zhaonan watched the petite girl from her bed frame, unconsciously inching closer to his arm for warmth.

Until seeing her leaning against his shoulder, falling asleep, Rong Zhaonan hadn't moved.

For a long time, he listened to Ning Yuan's even breathing. Suddenly, he reached out and poked Ning Yuan's soft little face—this was something he had always wanted to do.

He remembered Ning Yuan's bright eyes, her little mouth opening and closing, her lips red and soft...

Rong Zhaonan's eyes gleamed darkly as he let out a light sneer, "You really do resemble a rabbit."

His long, slender fingers slowly slid from her nose to her soft little lips.

That kind of rabbit that, if you're not careful, could be caught and skinned to be roasted and eaten.

But, Ning Yuan, even if she were a rabbit, would be the kind of rabbit that kicks eagles.

I just hope she's truly just a naturally gifted rabbit and not a fox disguised as one.

"Mmm...cookies..." Ning Yuan mumbled, her mouth slightly open as she unconsciously sucked on her fingertip.

Then he licked his lips and smacked them.

Rong Zhao Nan froze, only feeling the damp warmth and sucking sensation at his fingertips like a subtle yet stimulating spark of fire.her.......Ning Yuan arrived at the earthen house where Lao Tang and Grandma Xia lived.It's still half-collapsed, Grandma Xia is hunched over squatting in front of the wooden tub, washing dishes with w...
