Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 105: Settlement of Accounts after Autumn
"Rou Rou, my daughter, you've suffered these past few days. Don't worry, Mom and Dad will make it up to you!"

Jiang Xue held her daughter's hand tightly, "By the way, are you... alright?"

Jiang Rourou didn't understand. "Mom, what do you mean by that?"

"Don't worry, Mom understands. It concerns a woman's reputation, and even your father wouldn't say anything about it. Rou Rou, try to think positively. That's just how women are. Once you get married, as long as you don't say anything, no one will know. You can't detect this thing unless you get it checked!"

Jiang Rourou finally understood and hurriedly explained, "Mom, you've misunderstood, I wasn't..."

"Alright, Rou Rou, I know, I know everything!" Jiang Xue patted the back of her hand. "If you don't want to talk about it, then let's just pretend it never happened!"

"What is this all about? They brought a man over to keep me company, but he just tried to scare me, he didn't do anything. Mom, don't talk nonsense, what if Jia Yang finds out..."

"Okay, okay, whatever you say goes. Don't worry, Mom promises not to say a single word out of turn!"

Jiang Rourou: "..."

What are you even talking about? Don't you still not trust her?

Ahhhhh!
Now look what's happened; there's no way to clear my name now, even if I jumped into the Yellow River.

the other side.

The next morning, Nanwu and her two companions left the town by car. Alie seemed to be very familiar with the area, choosing a very remote and unpopular route until they reached a fork in the road.

Where will we take you?

Nan Wu spoke first, "Let's go back to Ningcheng!"

Nan Dongxue called her several times, but she didn't answer. He kept urging her to go back and explain to the Xiao family.

If we don't go home soon, the Nan family is going to explode!
"What are you going to Ningcheng for?" Su Wen asked curiously.

Nan Wu glanced at him. "Marriage, okay?"

Su Wen took it as a joke, "I don't believe it!"

She then added, "Anyway, I can't go back to Baicheng. Xiaoying, why don't I go back to Ningcheng with you? That way, we siblings can look after each other!"

"No way!" Nan Wu refused outright. "Find somewhere to stay for now, and I'll contact you later..."

Ningcheng was already in complete chaos, and with Su Wen added to the mix, how could she possibly survive? How could her plan possibly proceed?

"You think I'm a burden, huh? Fine, I'm leaving now!" Su Wen feigned anger and said to A Lie, "Could you please take me to Lincheng?"

After a one-hour drive, Su Wen arrived in Lincheng. Before leaving, Nan Wu slipped him a bank card.

"What? Are you trying to coax me?" Su Wen feigned aloofness.

Nan Wu smiled at him, "Let's just say that, just in case!"

After saying that, he got into the car.

“Hey, I’m a man of principle, I don’t spend a woman’s money. This card of yours…” Su Wen waved the bank card in his hand, then seemed to remember something and put it back, muttering to himself, “Never mind, it’s my own sister, not an outsider!”

Nan Wu had slept well last night and wasn't very sleepy in the car. With several hours to go, she rested her chin on her hand and leaned her arm against the edge of the car window.

"Ah Lie, aren't you... curious about my affairs?"

Where did Miss Nan's older brother come from? And how did he get involved with Qian Ke'er? Also, why is she called Su Ying? Isn't her name Nan Wu?
All of this seemed neither surprising nor concerning to the man named A Lie, as if he had known it beforehand.

Upon hearing this, Ah Lie quickly glanced at her in the rearview mirror, his dark eyes seeming to hold even more secrets than hers. "Other people's business is none of my concern!" Nan Wu probed again, "Then after we get back..."

"I do not know anything!"

Nan Wu breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you! In exchange, I'll do my best to help you if you ever need it!"

She dared not let her guard down, nor did she dare to trust this unfamiliar man too much.
In this world, she only trusts one person: herself. She can't even trust her own brother.

Nan family.

Nan Wu ran into Jiang Rourou, who was dressed up in a flamboyant manner, in the front yard.

Jiang Rourou rested at home for a few days, and now she's preparing to give Xiao Jiayang a surprise.

Xiao Jiayang hasn't called her in the past few days, but that hasn't affected her enthusiasm for him.

Upon seeing Nan Wu, she no longer bothered to pretend, turned her head to the side, and gave a cold snort.

If it weren't for that damn bitch, she wouldn't have been bullied like a dog.

Nan Wu chuckled upon seeing this.

Jiang Rourou had already left, but hearing the laughter, she was indignant and turned back. "Nan Wu, what do you mean? Who are you laughing at?"

Nan Wu waved her hand, suppressing a laugh, "It's nothing, it's nothing!"

"What do you mean 'nothing'? Don't think I don't know you're laughing at me, Nan Wu. I've suffered so much for you, how dare you laugh at me?"

Jiang Rourou gets angry just talking about it. She doesn't know what came over her head back then, insisting on showing off, and almost got...

Nan Wu feigned surprise, as if she had just found out, "What? So it was you who went to redeem me? I thought it was Dad. What should we do? How about I treat you to a meal?"

Jiang Rourou immediately felt insulted and wanted to explode on the spot, "Am I only worth a meal?"

Nan Wu shrugged, "If you don't care, then forget it!" Then she turned and left.

"You... Nan Wu, you come back here!" Jiang Rourou stomped her feet and said hatefully, "You bitch, just wait until I marry Brother Jiayang, you'll have your turn to cry!"

In the study, Nan Dongxue slammed his fist on the table, roaring, "Where have you been these past two days? Do you know I've sent people all over the world to look for you? You just disappeared without a word! Do you know how much pressure I'm under? Are you trying to drive me crazy?"

Nan Wu wiped her eyes with a handkerchief. "Dad, I'm just in a bad mood and want to be alone for a couple of days. What did I do wrong?"

Realizing that he was the cause of the whole thing, Nan Dongxue couldn't help but feel a little guilty. "Alright, what kind of behavior is this, crying all the time? The Xiao family is still waiting for us, today..."

"Alright, alright, it's just a matter of going to the Xiao family to explain things. I'm all prepared. Let's go, Dad!"

Nan Dongxue choked for a moment.

As he went downstairs, he told Nanwu, "You were able to come back safely thanks to Rou Rou. When she learned that you had been kidnapped, she risked her own safety to save you. You should thank her properly this time!"

Nan Wu stopped and looked at him. "Dad, is there any explanation for her 30 million?"

"This... Rou Rou couldn't stand the kidnappers' methods and couldn't bear to see our Nan family's money being swindled like this, so she took it on her own initiative. Her intention was for our Nan family!"

Nan Wu smiled. "Oh, she couldn't bear to see the Nan family's money being swindled, so she was willing to watch me get killed so she could take my place, right?"

"This!" Nan Dongxue was speechless.

Nan Wu had to have a serious talk with Nan Dongxue about this. "Dad, can't you see? What nonsense about worrying about this and that? She's worried I'll come back alive, she'd love for me to die!!"
