92: Chapter 92 The Affectionate Chosen One?

The night was hazy,

Xiao Ye walked slowly through the villa area where visitor vehicles were prohibited.

He looked up, a hint of composure beyond his years on his handsome Face.

Having founded the assassin organization Night Owl abroad and survived countless life-and-death struggles in a sea of blood,

Xiao Ye's heart had long since become as hard as a rock!

But looking at the brightly lit Ning Family villa from afar, a fleeting, barely perceptible touch of tenderness flickered in the depths of Xiao Ye's eyes.

After all these years, he still couldn't forget that gentle yet upright girl in his memories.

It was said that when Bai Feng offended the Dragon Family, Ning Ke'er had even spoken out against the injustice, feeling that the Dragon Family's methods were too ruthless.

This led to the Ning Family also suffering suppression from the Dragon Family.

Even his own Xiao Family, fearing they would draw the Dragon Family's wrath, had been eager to break off the engagement with Ning Ke'er.

Since then, Ning Ke'er seemed to have become a different person, never leaving her home.

She became the well-behaved daughter of the Ning Family that everyone in the Magic City praised.

Xiao Ye knew that wasn't Ning Ke'er's true self.

She was being suppressed by the Ning Family and intimidated by the Dragon Family.

One of his main purposes for returning this time was to resolve Ning Ke'er's inner turmoil.

He wanted to make up for the Xiao Family's past mistakes.

To take responsibility for the broken engagement!

Xiao Ye walked to the entrance of the Ning Family villa. Seeing Ning Ke'er's parents waiting expectantly, his eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward, saying respectfully, "Uncle, Aunt, why did you two come out to greet me?"

He didn't expect that with his late-night visit,

Ning Zhen and Zhao Qingya, his two elders, would actually be at the door to welcome him.

This was too grand!

It made him, on his first visit, feel a bit embarrassed.

Ning Zhen frowned, looking at the young man in front of him, wondering, "Who are you?"

"Uncle, I'm Xiao Ye," Xiao Ye introduced himself, confused. "The Xiao Ye who specifically sent a visiting card a day ago!"

For this, he had specially showcased his calligraphic skills, with strokes like iron strokes and silver hooks, perfectly natural.

Ning Zhen turned to look at his wife. "Did we receive a visiting card recently?"

Zhao Qingya nodded. "It's the one you tossed aside yesterday morning while reading the morning paper."

Ning Zhen remembered. His brow furrowed, and his gaze toward Xiao Ye turned cold. "You're from the Xiao Family?"

"Get lost. What is someone from the Xiao Family doing at my Ning Family home?"

"My Ning Family does not welcome the Xiao Family!"

He remembered the broken engagement clearly.

He felt disgusted whenever he saw anyone from the Xiao Family.

Not to mention this Xiao Ye, who was the one who had ruined the engagement!

"Uncle Ning, I was young back then. Many things were not as I wished. I've returned this time to make up for the Xiao Family's mistakes and the hurt Keer has suffered over the years."

The Night King of the prestigious Night Owl Organization didn't get angry after being driven away; instead, he explained with a bitter expression.

Just then, a sports car pulled up outside the villa.

Ning Zhen and Zhao Qingya's eyes lit up. Leaving Xiao Ye aside, they hurried over to welcome the newcomer.

The person was none other than Qin Ge.

Getting out of the car, Qin Ge saw Ning Zhen and Zhao Qingya greeting him warmly and said with a slight smile, "Uncle, Aunt, sorry for the intrusion. This is a small token of my appreciation."

He pointed to the two gifts Qiao Yingzi was carrying and introduced them one by one. "Uncle Ning, this is tribute wine from the Capital. My old man loves it. I heard you enjoy good wine, so I brought two bottles."

"Aunt, this is beauty cream my aunt got from a lab abroad. It can remove wrinkles, whiten, and maintain the skin. I thought you'd like it, but looking at your skin now, it seems you might not even need it."

Ning Zhen looked back at Xiao Ye, who was empty-handed and lacked any social grace.

Then he looked at the smiling Qin Ge, who was carrying gifts. The difference was like heaven and earth.

He declined with a Face full of smiles, "Young Master Qin, your presence brings light to our Ning Family. Why bring gifts?!"

"Exactly, exactly. This is far too much trouble for you, Young Master Qin."

Zhao Qingya took the gifts from Qiao Yingzi with a smile.

It wasn't that she was materialistic.

At the Ning Family's level, they wouldn't lack such cosmetics.

But this was from a lab abroad, and even Qin Ge's aunt had a hand in it.

That made her have to take it seriously.

She enjoyed Qin Ge's praise, but at her age, how could she not have a single nasolabial fold?

"Young Master Qin, it's cold outside. Please, come in."

Ning Zhen glared at his wife and quickly invited Qin Ge inside for a chat.

Xiao Ye, who was staring blankly from the side, furrowed his brow.

He was extremely displeased by Qin Ge's appearance.

Seeing the change in Ning Zhen and Zhao Qingya's attitude made him even more indignant!

He was the King of the Night Owl Organization, the Uncrowned King of the overseas underground world!

Even those noble vampires had to be respectful to him.

And yet, he was being outdone by a scion of a wealthy family?

They were blind!

Despite his displeasure, he was here for Ning Ke'er. He wasn't willing to leave before seeing her, so he followed them toward the villa.

Ning Zhen turned around and scolded with a cold Face, "Xiao Ye, what are you following us for?"

"Are you deaf? My Ning Family doesn't welcome you!"

Zhao Qingya's willow-leaf eyebrows stood on end as she scolded sharply, "Xiao Ye, don't be ungrateful! Don't force our Ning Family to use force!"

Qin Ge smiled and smoothed things over, "Uncle, Aunt, a guest is a guest. It's just an extra cup of tea."

It wasn't to give Xiao Ye Face.

If he didn't speak up, the Ning Family guards would surely drive him away.

How could those guards stand a chance against the Night King?

Wouldn't that just be giving Xiao Ye a chance to show off and slap their Faces?

Besides, he was here to harvest wool.

He had come specifically for Xiao Ye.

If the protagonist didn't enter the Ning Family home, and he wanted to see Ning Ke'er, wouldn't he just secretly meet her?

Why would he need Ning Zhen and Zhao Qingya's permission?

Ning Zhen's mouth twitched unnaturally, but he didn't dare go against Qin Ge's Face, so he could only glare coldly at Xiao Ye. "For Young Master Qin's sake, don't be ungrateful!"

The four of them walked into the living room and sat down.

In the kitchen, Mu Xinyi, acting like she was at home, came over carrying a tea tray with four cups of tea.

She first served tea to Ning Zhen and Zhao Qingya.

Then she brought the tea to Qin Ge, winking playfully, as if telling him, "Look at how I'm doing!"

"Keer, it's been years. Is it possible I can't even have a cup of tea?"

Xiao Ye looked at Mu Xinyi and asked gently.

Mu Xinyi took a sip of the last cup of tea, tilted her head, and looked at Xiao Ye. "If you drink it, what will I drink?"

"Keer..."

Xiao Ye gazed affectionately at the Mu Xinyi before him.

He hadn't expected that after more than ten years, Ning Ke'er would have grown to have such a startlingly impressive figure.

And her personality seemed a bit different from the reports?

Mu Xinyi's beautiful lips twitched, and she casually splashed the tea onto Xiao Ye's Face, cursing, "Keer your mother!"
