Real And Fake Young Lady: I Have Seven Brothers Pampering Me After I Transmigrated

671 Testing

Chu Ning was keenly aware that Yan Shen was hiding something. She knew that there must be a reason for the sudden change in Yan Shen’s personality, but he had always avoided talking about it. Chu Ning could not be sure what had happened.

But after a few times of probing and considering his behavior this time, Chu Ning’s could basically confirm that Yan Shen had been struck with an illness, most likely a very serious illness that was either incurable or extremely difficult to cure. Otherwise, with the Yan family’s strength, Yan Shen wouldn’t behave this way during this period of time and would probably have gone to get treatment at the time the illness was discovered.

Chu Ning narrowed her eyes. Yan Shen, who had taken two steps forward, could no longer see her expression. A guess gradually formed in Chu Ning’s heart. Perhaps the Yan family still did not know that Yan Shen was sick.

The more Chu Ning thought about it, the more she felt that it made sense. However, she was not in a hurry to clarify this matter. Even if it was a matter of life and death, Chu Ning was still willing to respect Yan Shen’s wishes. He did not take the initiative to expose it, and things had not progressed to the point where there was no way out. She was still willing to maintain this illusion.

However, it was one thing to respect Yan Shen’s wishes and not make it clear. As a friend, it was another thing for her to use her own methods to think of a solution.

Chu Ning had already made up her mind to call Seventh Brother after she parted ways with Yan Shen. During this period of time, she had to pay more attention to Yan Shen’s condition so that she could provide Seventh Brother with symptoms, making it easier for him to confirm his condition.

The two of them had their heads full of thoughts, and they did not even notice Su Ming approaching them. Su Ming was the first to greet Chu Ning. “Ms. Chu, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Chu Ning immediately pulled herself out of her head and looked at Su Ming, who was already standing before her, and the people around her who had their own thoughts. She thought that it was troublesome, but she still remembered the contents of her conversation with Su Kun. Now that Su Ming had taken the initiative to look for her, it was possible that he had gotten the news from Su Kun.

Chu Ning knew that this was an opportunity that one could only dream of. She did not care much about it and also raised a polite smile. “Mr. Su, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Su Ming chuckled. “It’s better to see with one’s own eyes. Ms. Chu is so young and capable, and as pretty as a flower; really a hero among men.”

However, Chu Ning became wary. It was not because Su Ming’s praise carried a strange tone, but because those around her either wanted to curry favor with Su Ming or wanted to compete with him. Yet, Su Ming praised her in front of so many people. Was he doing it unintentionally, or was he doing it on purpose to make her hate him?

Chu Ning didn’t show any of the twists and turns in her heart. Instead, she smiled even more sincerely. “What are you saying, Mr. Su? How can I be called a hero among men with my few achievements? Everyone here is an elite, and their achievements are far above mine.”

Chu Ning wasn’t the kind of person who would belittle herself and elevate others. On the contrary, she was very proud and didn’t think that she was worse than anyone present. However, in such an occasion where there were heirs from large families at every turn, she had to climb down herself when praised to the skies. Otherwise, she would be shot down as a target.

Su Ming was not surprised when he heard her say that. If it were any other person who was not clear-headed, they would have already felt smug. Even among the so-called elites around him, there were very few who were like Chu Ning, calm yet immediately becoming vigilant.

Su Ming now had a clearer understanding of his father’s evaluation of Chu Ning. He exchanged a few pleasantries with the people around him, and they immediately left tactfully. After all, no one who had been invited here was a fool.

Only then did Su Ming look at Yan Shen. He had earlier been pushed out by the people around Su Ming, and only when the crowd dispersed did he return to Chu Ning’s side.

When Yan Shen was pushed out, he was a little speechless. However, he was not worried that Chu Ning would fall into the trap of these riddlers. He was very confident in Chu Ning.

As expected, the crowd dispersed after a few words. Yan Shen took a few steps forward and stood beside Chu Ning. “Mr. Su is indeed amazing. I didn’t expect that small fry like us could make Mr. Su remember our names.”

When Chu Ning heard Yan Shen’s cryptic tone, she almost could not help but laugh. She also knew that Yan Shen was venting his anger on Su Ming for testing her earlier.

However, Yan Shen was usually good-tempered. Why was his retaliation so quick this time?
