Chapter 1121: Chapter 1121: Burning Bridges After Crossing the River
The little girl looked at the fierce uncle in front of her and shivered, her eyes immediately filling with tears, as if she was about to burst into tears at any moment.
Qin Xi glared at Ning Ze. Is this how you talk to a little girl?
She bent down, her hand landing on the girl’s shoulder, and comforted her, "Don’t mind this weird uncle, with me here, I won’t let him bully you."
Ning Ze pouted, what weird uncle, how could Xi Xi say that?
The little girl sniffed, looked at Qin Xi, her eyes glistening with tears, looking so pitiful, "Sister, do you want a flower?"
Qin Xi looked at the girl’s obedient demeanor and smiled. Actually, it was normal for her to call her auntie. Nowadays, women are afraid of being called old and care about these minor details.
But the little girl called Ning Ze uncle, how could she, being older, call herself sister?
She smiled, "Sister doesn’t want a flower, thank you."
Upon hearing this, the girl’s eyes filled with tears again, as if she would cry the next moment.
Qin Xi felt a bit helpless, then heard Ning Ze say, "Oh, don’t cry. It’s just a flower, I’ll buy it."
She turned her head and glared at him, but Ning Ze seemed oblivious to her warning look, took out money, and bought a rose.
The little girl originally thought he would buy them all, but he only bought one, feeling a bit disappointed, she said nothing, gave the flower to Qin Xi, took the money, and ran away.
Ning Ze handed the flower to Qin Xi, "Xi Xi, here."
Qin Xi didn’t take it and sarcastically said, "I didn’t expect Second Young Master Ning to be so compassionate, I wonder who just scared the girl to tears."
Ning Ze was a bit helpless, "Wasn’t it because she was being unreasonable?"
"She was unreasonable, and you were too?" Qin Xi said irritably, "You’re clearly teaching her that if she cries, someone will comfort her, you’re spoiling the child."
Ning Ze looked at her pouting face and suddenly laughed.
Seeing him not taking her words seriously, Qin Xi got even more annoyed.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing," Ning Ze restrained his smile.
The more he didn’t say, the more Qin Xi felt something was up, and pressed, "Speak up!"
"If I say it, you can’t get mad."
"That depends on what you say."
Well, there’s no getting around it, Ning Ze softly said, "Xi Xi will definitely be a good mom in the future."
Qin Xi was momentarily stunned, looking at Ning Ze’s gentle expression, her own expression turned a bit unnatural, and she walked on.
Ning Ze saw this, immediately caught up, and stuffed the flower into her hand.
"What are you doing? I said I don’t want it."
"It’s already bought, you can’t expect me, a grown man, to hold it, right? At least give me some dignity." Ning Ze muttered.
Seeing his pitiful look, Qin Xi glanced at the flower in her hand and remembered he was also standing up for her just now, so she accepted it.
She felt she was kind of foolish, she had already decided before going out that if he dared to give her flowers, she’d kick him and twist his ear, but now she couldn’t refuse.
Oh well, it’s just a flower, she’s already out with him anyway.
"Xi Xi, that seems to be an amusement park over there, let’s go play," Ning Ze suddenly said.
Qin Xi immediately refused, "I’m not going, it’s for kids, aren’t you embarrassed to ask me to play?"
"Xi Xi, since you’ve accepted my flower, we can pretend it’s Valentine’s Day, otherwise you’ll be burning bridges after crossing the river."
Qin Xi was dumbfounded, how was she burning bridges, wasn’t he just buying the flower to comfort that little girl?
Ning Ze didn’t care what she thought, he pulled her along with him.
