Chapter 149: Disguise

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xie Zhuojun’s face felt a stinging pain on his face, so much so that the doctor had to apply some medicine and bandage it up.

Shangguan Ning had never expected that Xie Zhuojun would stand up for her.

She didn’t know how she felt at the moment when he did. She was both astonished and grateful.

She had always been the ignored one standing next to Shangguan Rouxue earlier. Why did Xie Zhuojun fail to notice her then?

If this had happened four years ago, she would have shed tears of gratitude and followed Xie Zhuojun even more reverently.

But at this moment, she felt grateful but no feelings of affection. The harm done to her in the past was something that she would not be able to forget.

Seeing the gauze on Xie Zhuojun’s face, she quietly said, “Thank you.”

Xie Zhuojun turned his head and looked at Shangguan Ning’s serene face. For the very first time, he found himself standing at a distance from her, even though she was right next to him.

“No worries. This is what I should do.” He sounded depressed, not because of the wound on the face, but because of the wound in his heart.

Shangguan Ning felt that she had no more to say to Xie Zhuojun, so she stood up after seeing that he was fine. “Take rest, and I will go check on my father.”

Saying so, she walked out of the ward without giving him another look.

The formidable and commanding Shangguan Zheng was lying in the sickbed. He looked pale and weak like any ordinary old man. Wrinkles had covered his face and his hair had gone grey.

He was lying in the sickbed quietly in the ward, totally alone. Both Yang Wenshu and Shangguan Rouxue were missing. He was still in coma and he hadn’t woken up.

The doctor said that he was fine, except that he had been deeply affected by something for his heart to bear it. What he needed was a few days’ rest.

Shangguan Ning already knew the reason for Shangguan Zheng’s current state. She found him very pathetic.

She remembered that on the day when her mother committed suicide, Shangguan Zheng hadn’t reacted much except for displaying some sadness.

And today, he wasn’t able to bear the truth that he had failed to be the Mayor and remained the Deputy Mayor. Such was the impact, that he got so upset and his heart couldn’t take it.

For him, the position and power were more important than anything else. He could lose his wife and sacrifice his own daughter. He could even abandon his own self-esteem but he couldn’t lose the position.

What Shangguan Ning didn’t understand was that why was he still aspiring for a higher position when he was already in his 50s. He was already in a position that the general folk admired, yet he was still not satisfied.

She wished that he was an ordinary father, not a Deputy Mayor.

Knowing that he was fine, Shangguan Ning got up to leave after sometime. She had never been close to Shangguan Zheng because he had given all of his fatherly love to Shangguan Rouxue. She felt as if she was looking at a stranger when she sat next to him.

But before Shangguan Ning managed to walk away from the ward, Shangguan Rouxue walked in.

Her eyes were red from crying. It must have been because Yang Wenshu ripped Xie Zhuojun’s face off.

Shangguan Ning couldn’t help but shiver when she thought of Yang Wenshu’s scary face lunging at her, the moment she entered the door.

Had it been because Shangguan Zheng was in coma, or because she hated Ning to the bones, that Yang Wenshu’s mask of gentleness which she had kept intact for years, was ripped off completely.

Shangguan Rouxue was still trying to show herself to be pitiful and kind. It was not clear what she was up to.

“Sister, daddy just passed out all of a sudden. I am so worried. He will be fine, won’t he?”

“No one is here, so go ahead and say what you want. I am quite tired of watching you pretend!”

Shangguan Ning knew all the tricks and acting skills of Shangguan Rouxue’s. She was not moved at all.

“Sister, Zhuojun and I are getting married! Can’t you just forget the past and give us your blessing?” Shangguan Rouxue’s eyes were still full of tears. She looked as if she had been wronged.

“I can forget the past, but giving you my blessing is impossible. I am already being kind enough not to curse you two! If you are showing off that you have succeeded in becoming his woman, then you don’t need to do that, because you succeeded in that four years ago, the moment you entered his bed. I will not want the man whom other women have used!”

Shangguan Ning sneered, opened the door and walked out.

Shangguan Rouxue followed her out. She kept calling her “Sister”, causing everyone at the hospital to turn to look at them.

When Shangguan Ning came to the staircase, Shangguan Rouxue caught up with her.

There were few people there, and Shangguan Rouxue stopped in front of her.

She said in tears, “Sister, Daddy is so sick right now, why are you leaving and why aren’t you taking care of him? He loves you so much, how can you be so heartless?”

Shangguan Ning was about to say something when she felt a sharp pain in her knees. She couldn’t hold on to her balance and started to fall.

It was a staircase of dozens of flights. She would become crippled even she didn’t die after she fell from here!

Shangguan Rouxue was so ruthless. She had distracted her by talking with her and then kicked her knees violently!

But the tumble she had expected didn’t happen. Instead, she fell into a warm and familiar embrace.

“Be careful. Never stand alone with this woman. It will make me worried.”

The low voice reached her ears. It sounded concerned and angry.

Shangguan Ning looked up from his arms and said in surprise. “What are you doing here?”

“I am a husband, a bodyguard and a driver to my wife when she is out. I don’t want you to be bullied.” A smile hovered at Jing Yichen’s face as he massaged her hair in a spoiling way.

Then he bent down and felt the knee which Shangguan Rouxue had kicked. He asked in concern, “Does it hurt? Is it ok? Let me take you to Mu Qing!”

Shangguan Ning shook her head and held him by his tapered waist as she said softly. “It is okay. You are enough. It doesn’t hurt now that I have seen you.”

She had been so afraid a moment ago at the thought of falling down but he appeared in time when she needed him most.

She felt that she was the Cinderella in a fairy tale whilst Jing Yichen was the Prince Charming who was always by her side.

That was the first time Shangguan Ning spoke with Jing Yichen in this way. She had always been bashful and didn’t know how to act as a spoiled girl. But when she spoke in such a manner, he was instantly moved.

Jing Yichen couldn’t resist kissing her, then he scooped her up and started walking.

Without looking at Shangguan Rouxue, he spoke in a cold voice, “I will take double revenge for Ning for today’s incident. I hope you live long enough to taste it!”
