Ding Ning had clearly not been in a good mood, otherwise, he would not have gotten drunk. She had not been considerate of how he had been feeling and had said such degrading and insulting things like “Ling Yun was not worthy of him”.

Honest to god, Xiao Nuo truly had no intention of looking down on Ling Yun. Her upbringing would also not allow her to view others through biased lenses.

She had just thought of herself as Ding Ning’s fiance and had been jealous. She felt that Ling Yun had taken away what belonged to her and it was with such resentful thinking that she had said the word “unworthy”. If she had said “should not have” instead, the two of them would not have separated so unhappily.

A random changing of words and things might have developed in a completely different direction, she might even have locked down Ding Ning. It could not be helped, the language was just so broad-ranging and profound, and the difference of one word could mean an irreversible error.

However, Xiao Nuo could tell from this incident that Ding Ning was someone who valued his relationships highly. At the same time, he was also a very sensitive person, possibly to the point of self-abasement.

He was clearly very talented, skilled in medicine and martial arts, so why would he have such a powerful sense of self-inferiority?

This made Xiao Nuo very curious. She had never thought that such a talented person as Ding Ning would have such self-abasing emotions, it was a bit unbelievable.

Was it because he came from a small and remote town? Or was it trauma from his childhood caused by not having a mother? Or perhaps he had been beaten down by someone which had triggered his sensitive mental state and caused him to develop an inferiority complex.

Xiao Nuo suddenly felt that she didn’t understand Ding Ning at all. It looked like she should get to know his past properly. Out of respect, she had never thought about investigating Ding Ning.

But now, she knew he was her fiance so she had no choice but to take this seriously.

My future husband can be confident, arrogant, and even egotistic but he cannot be a self-abasing man. This is an illness, and it must be treated.

Picking up the phone, she dialed a Yan Jing number. “Xiao Yao, are you there?”

“Ah, Sister Nuo, what made you remember to favor me with your voice? Have you returned to Yan Jing? Where are you?”

A charming woman’s sharp cry came from the other end of the phone.

“Don’t give me that nonsense. I’m still in Ninghai. I have something for you to do.”

Xiao Nuo’s brows relaxed and she scolded with a laugh, knowing her best friends personality. Holding onto her patience, she said, “Look into someone for me. A recent graduate of Ninghai University’s medical college called Ding Ning. I want to know everything that happened during his five years in university. Who did he have good relationships with? Who did he not get along with? Who was he close to? Did he date? No detail is too small, I want to know everything.”

“Ding Ning? Why does this name sound so familiar? I can’t remember right now. What’s wrong, Sister Nuo? Did he offend you? Should we all get out to Ninghai, tear him limb from limb, chop him up, shatter his remains, then toss it out to feed the dogs? Don’t worry, we’re absolute professionals and promise to leave no lingering troubles.”

Yaoyao’s chest slapping echoed loudly. Even through the phone, Xiao Nuo could imagine the trembling of the giant mounds on this devil girl’s chest and she said, without good humor.

“Don’t make more trouble for me. That’s my man. I’ll skin whoever dares to touch him.”

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before a heaven shaking scream rang out. “My god, did I hear wrong? Has the heart of our icy demon girl finally been moved? You’ve even found a man. Sister Nuo, Sister Nuo, tell me quickly, how big is his thing? Is he powerful? How is his stamina? How many times in one night? Can he satisfy you?”

Xiao Nuo could do nothing to stop her. Reaching the end of her patience, she said, “Shoo, Xiao Yao, I’m warning you, don’t get any ideas about your brother-in-law, otherwise we won’t be able to be sisters.”

“Alright, alright, alright. Nuo Nuo, how could you be like this? We are good sisters and agreed that in the future, we would even share the same husband. Did you see how big brother-in-law was and now want him for yourself? Do you not understand that if sisters work together, there is nothing that cannot be done?”

Whether purposely or not, the seductive and lecherous Yaoyao put particular emphasis on the “cannot be done”.

Xiao Nuo was slightly regretting her call to this devil girl. She knew that she had a dirty mouth that said whatever she wanted but was actually a very respectable woman. However, having it put so dubiously by Yaoyao, Xiao Nuo still felt a bit uncomfortable. In a cold voice, she said, “Stop nattering away, just tell me if you can do it or not. If you can’t do it, I’ll find someone else.”

“I can, I can, for sure I can. Even if I can’t, I can. If I can’t even help Sister Nuo, then there is no purpose to life.”

Yaoyao noticed that Xiao Nuo’s tone had become cold and knew she couldn’t tease her anymore. Hurriedly, she promised coquettishly.

In every circle in Yan Jing, Xiao Nuo was known as a goddess with both looks and intelligence. Furthermore, she was also a demon girl with top-level martial prowess.

Although they’re cheeky and impudent with her every day, that was because their relationship had reached a certain level. However, once Xiao Nuo grew serious, there was not a single person who even dared to breathe loudly.

The icy demon girl who had just turned 18 and joined society drew the interest of countless young men. There were enough of those who felt they had some weight and bragged that they wanted to be intimate with her to wrap around the Forbidden City a number of times. Among them, there was no lack of sons of major families but in the end, they all went home in low spirits. There was not even one man who drew a smile from the demon girl. On the contrary, they were often beaten black and blue and still had to keep up a smile.

Yaoyao still remembered the return of super playboy who had just returned from overseas. Relying on his powerful grandfather to support him, he made a show of being decent and proper and with a few retired Special Forces soldiers as bodyguards, he tried in vain to forcefully take down the demon girl.

The bodyguards, who seemed so incredible in the eyes of the playboys, were quickly dealt with by the demon girl like they were nothing. As for the arrogant son had his four limbs broken and was tossed outside his grandfather’s door.

Everyone thought that was the end of the demon girl. Even if the grandfather did not press charges, the Xiao family would not tolerate such wanton behavior.

After all, each circle had their own rules. The guy was not as skilled and so he was beaten, if he had the skill, he could come back for a rematch, if he didn’t, he would have to accept this defeat.

However, the demon girl beat him up and threw him outside his home. This was a naked demonstration of power. One mistake, and it could incite a war between the families.

But the results shocked everyone. The old man of the Xiao family did not, as if nothing had happened. On the contrary, it was the playboy, still wrapped in bandages, who was sent out of the country overnight, never to reappear again.

The young playboys did not have the privilege of knowing exactly what happened in secret but that one battle solidified the demon girl’s throne in the top-most circles in Yan Jing and no one could move her.

Later, something happened in the Xiao family and, for some unknown reason, the demon girl ran away to Ninghai to join the Special Forces. This left the playboys that circled around her disappointed for a long time.

“Alright, stop being so unreasonable. I’ll give you three days to check everything out. If nothing goes wrong, I’ll be back in Yan Jing for New Year. We’ll get together at that time. Bye!”

After Xiao Nuo finished speaking, she did not give Yaoyao any opportunity to speak and decisively hung up the call. She could already hear the playboys by Yaoyao side coming up and asking if it was her calling. She knew that if she kept chatting, she would not be able to hang up for at least two hours.

Amongst the celebrities club in Yan Jing, Yaoyao could not keep her mouth shut and so the news of the demon girl having a man immediately spread throughout Yan Jing’s foremost circles.

Fortunately, this F cup woman was not completely without brains. She forcibly resisted the desire to gossip, held up against the pressure, and did not speak Ding Ning’s name.

Otherwise, that very night, crying and foot-stamping playboys might have gone straight to Ninghai and torn a young doctor, completely in the dark about all this, limb from limb and sank him into the river.

In reality, Ding Ning also felt a bit regretful after he walked out of the door. He felt that his attitude toward Xiao Nuo had been overly harsh. After all, she liked him and had not purposely meant to degrade Ling Yun.

But long-nurtured habit had made him consider Ling Yun an untouchably sensitive topic. He could not tolerate any being disrespectful to her and that was why he had reacted so strongly.

But his dignity would not allow him to turn back and apologize. He could only scratch his head and sigh helplessly. He’ll explain the next time they had an opportunity to meet.

Driving the newly-repaired Land Rover, he headed straight for the half-bay, feeling very upset. He had not done anything this half day, other than making more trouble for himself.

He had borrowed Shen Muqing’s car for so long, it was time to return it as well as express his thanks. Furthermore, he had promised he would go each weak to stabilize her condition and it was time for her check-up.

In particular, Shen Muqing had called him almost daily during this time but he had not returned a single call. As a professional doctor, he had been rather irresponsible.

Just as he was feeling irritated, the image of a girl rose up, unbidden, in his mind. Although it had only been one short year, it seemed as long as a number of centuries.

Even Ling Yun did not know that before Ding Ning graduated, he had once met a girl. A pretty girl from a remote village.

She never wore makeup, tied her up in a simple pony-tail, and wore a plain outfit that was white from washing. She was like a pure, white flower.

She ignored that gazes of all the people, come and left on her own terms, stood aloft and independent from the world but she had self-respect and self-love and was her own master.

Her grades were very good. Each year, she was always able to receive a full scholarship and she used her spare time to work odd jobs and be a tutor to earn money for tuition and living costs.

Ding Ning had met her while working an odd job. To speak honestly, the girl had indeed touched his spirit and successfully attracted his attention.

But up to now, he still did not know if that counted as love. Perhaps, it could only be called affection or admiration.

Ding Ning, a bookworm, often saw her hiding in a corner of the library, silently drinking cold water and munching on a cold bun as she read books she was interested, yet she proudly never accepted anyone’s sympathy or charity.

No matter where, a pretty girl would always attract admirers. For a girl like her, aloof in spirit but struggling to live, naturally, there was a group of wild admirers who followed behind her and endlessly harassed her.

Among them, there was no lack of boys from good families, second-generation millionaires or officials, who offered to provide for her, handling her tuition and living costs. Some even promised her a beautiful future but she rejected all of them without hesitation. She would rather live a poor life than let herself go. A girl of such character had become a unique part of their school’s scenery.

But even if the tree desires quiet, the wind does not stop. Some unconscionable men felt that since she had no family and no support, they would use force since kindness did not work.

Ding Ning, who rarely involved himself in other’s people’s matters, could no longer hold back and he ruthlessly taught them a lesson. Even though he had shown mercy, he had still left the bastards looking for their teeth on the ground.

The girl, who never showed encouragement to any of the boys, finally gave him a sweet smile. Although they saw each other rarely, after all, they were not in the same profession, he and the girl had chosen, with great mutual understanding, the same place to work.

A gentleman’s friendship was as insipid as water. Ding Ning silently protected her but never thought to take things further with her, he just admired her character. She also quietly enjoyed the sense of safety that Ding Ning brought her.
