Gu Helian sat next to Rongyue, looking at Xiao Yan's shy look and rolling her eyes rudely.
They are all men, no one knows who.
What does this guy want to do by pretending like this? Could it be that he still wants to say that Xiao Haitang "forced" what happened just now?
"Director Xiao..."
Just as Gu Helian opened her mouth to say something sarcastic, Xiao Yan raised his head and said, "What are your orders, uncle?"
Gu Helian: "???"
Xiao Yan quickly showed annoyance on his face: "No, it's the Master of the Gu family..." He coughed lowly, as if to cover up: "I almost made the wrong call. What are the orders of the Master of the Gu family?"
Gu Helian: "..."
All the sarcasm in his mouth was stuck in his throat, and the word "uncle" seemed to have caught his vitals.
Looking at Xiao Yan's body after being "ravaged", he remembered that Xiao Haitang was intimate with him. The two of them had skin-to-skin contact. This bastard would become Xiao Haitang's person in the future. Rong Yue had been refusing to give it to him. Because of his "status", he also hid their affairs from Tang Ning.
If he makes trouble today, looks like a monster like Xiao Yan, and gives Xiao Haitang a little wind in the future, then when will he be able to join Zirong's family?
For the sake of her own future happiness, Gu Helian changed her face as if she were reading a book, and her tone was particularly gentle.
"What can I say? I'm just worried about Tang Ning. Her previous situation looked wrong, and Rong Yue is very worried."
Xiao Yan said: "Tang Ning almost fell into madness when she remembered what happened when she was a child. What the Song family did made her still unable to let it go after so many years. Those nightmares from the past were entangled like shadows, making her so desperate that she almost hurt herself. I……"
He seemed a little embarrassed to speak, his throat moved before he continued,
"Although it was a last resort, I lost my sense of proportion."
Xiao Yan stretched out his hand to lift the hem of his gown, and without hesitation knelt down in front of Rongyue:
"Tang Ning and I have long been friends with each other, and we have promised each other for life, but I did something that went against the rules before we got married. It's my fault, and I have wronged Tang Ning."
"I'll let my aunt punish me for today's matter."
The man who was always resolute and cold as a blade suddenly knelt down, startling several people in the room. The softness in his face when he mentioned Tang Ning made the coldness in his eyebrows disappear, and his expression became docile.
He knelt in front of Rong Yue without any reluctance, and took all the blame on himself when he opened his mouth.
Rong Yue's original anger inexplicably subsided a little, and she raised her head and glanced at Qian Qiyue and Xue Ru: "You guys get out first!"
Qian Qiyue hesitated for a moment and was pulled away by Xue Ru.
After the two little girls left, Rong Yue looked at Xiao Yan quietly for a moment before speaking in a low voice: "Xiao Yan, I am extremely grateful to you."
"You rescued Tang Ning at the foot of Lingyun Temple and escorted her back to the capital. Later, you accepted her as your adopted sister and tried your best to protect her, whether it was the Song family or the Lu family. Your kindness to Tang Ning was as deep as the mountains. You even snatched my life back from Xie Tianyu."
"If you open your mouth, I won't hesitate even if I risk my life to repay you, but Tang Ning can't."
Rongyue pursed her lips. She knew that she and Tang Ning owed Xiao Yan a lot. If it hadn't been for his protection, she and Tang Ning would have been killed by the Song family and Xie Tianyu, and she would have been kept in the dark. Until her death, my sister’s injustice will never see the light of day.
Xiao Yan is a very good person. His character and conduct are faultless. She will never look down on him because of his disability. But the premise of all that is that he only takes care of Tang Ning in the name of his brother. Instead of coveting Tang Ning and wanting to marry her.
Rong Yue admitted that she was selfish, but if Tang Ning was with a eunuch, what would others think of her?
How will she live in the future?
Rongyue, who was over thirty but still beautiful, also had red eyes at this time.
"Tang Ning has lost her parents and her clan. Even my aunt has become notorious and ridiculed because of her years of stupidity."
"She finally got over those malicious intentions. She still has a long life ahead of her. If she is really with you, her reputation will be ruined."
Rongyue stood up and knelt down towards Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan couldn't reach out his hand to help him, so he quickly turned sideways to avoid it.
Rong Yue's eyes turned red: "Master Xiao, no matter how much you want me to repay you for your kindness to the Rong family, Tang Ning and me, I beg you to let Tang Ning go."
"Rong Yue!"
Gu Helian reached out to help her, but Rong Yue held him down. She just stared at Xiao Yan stubbornly.
"What happened tonight has never happened. Miss Qian and Aru will not say anything. I will take Tang Ning back to Beijing early tomorrow morning."
Xiao Yan has a handicap, and having a good relationship with Tang Ning will not ruin her body. Even if there is something, as long as she hides it from outsiders, no one will suspect it. Compared with being ridiculed and reviled for the rest of her life, and being riddled with notoriety, she is innocent. Things are trivial.
Xiao Yan looked at Rongyue who was crying and said slowly: "If it's just because of my identity, aunt can rest assured that I haven't purified myself yet."
Rongyue was stunned.
Gu Helian looked as if she had expected it.
Xiao Yan looked at Rongyue: "Auntie, get up first, I will explain to you slowly."
When Gu Helian pulled Rongyue up, Rongyue didn't resist this time. She was really shocked by what Xiao Yan just said. There were still tears in her eyes and she looked at Xiao Yan in disbelief.
"You...you're not?"
"……How can it be?"
What kind of place is the palace? Everyone who wants to enter will be watched by countless people at every step. How can you hide whether you are clean or not?
Moreover, Xiao Yan walked up to the Holy Emperor step by step, served Emperor An and gained his trust, and then gradually took power in the court. If he was not a eunuch, how could he have concealed all the obstacles in the palace? Before he took power, every eunuch How did Gong'e pass the examination safely, and how could Emperor An trust him?
Xiao Yan knew that Rong Yue was suspicious and looked calm: "I am not a member of the Xiao family. When I was young, the elders in my family had an old relationship with Mrs. Rong. Later, something happened in the family and both my parents died. Fortunately, Mrs. Rong saved me and took care of me. He recovered from his injuries for many days, and it was at that time that he met the young Tang Ning."
Rongyue opened her mouth wide: "You mean, you are an old friend of the Rong family?"
Xiao Yan lowered his voice and said, "I was in trouble when I was young. My parents died in vain. Because of family feuds and enemies everywhere, I had to change my name and move into the palace. As for the identity of an eunuch, it was not only to gain power as soon as possible, but also to In order to allow Emperor An to favor him without any scruples."
"My father's death is of great importance and I dare not mention it easily. However, he had some connections in the palace before his death. Moreover, I was young when I first entered the palace, so I had to be concealed by Lady Qin with medicine. Later, as I got older, I became more powerful. No one dares to question it before the Holy Spirit."
Rong Yue frowned and looked at Xiao Yan, a little doubtful of his words, but Xiao Yan looked at him calmly without any guilt or hesitation.
Rong Yue was silent for a long time before asking: "Who is your father?"
Xiao Yan said, "I will take you to meet someone. You will know after you meet him."
