Chapter 20 - Banquet (2)

The bodyguard in a in a black suit left. Sheng Mian and the companions next to her were still a little bit stunned, especially Sheng Mian, who looked at Sheng Nuan with eyes full of surprise.

Her aunt kept saying that she was married to a painter from Country Y. What happened in that scene just now?

Also, the dress on Sheng Nuan.

Sheng Mian said tentatively, "Nuan Nuan, you..."

Sheng Nuan didn't have the patience to be pretentious with her anymore and said directly, "Sorry, I'm sleepy; I want to take a rest."

After finishing, she nodded lightly to Gu Lanfeng, turned around, and walked towards the lounge behind.

Sheng Mian had a complicated look on her face, and the companion next to her came to her senses and started complaining: "Oh my God, that's the person she hired, right? This is so pretentious, it's outrageous!"

"Yeah, I want bodyguards too. It's so funny. Is your cousin seriously ill? Does she think she is a princess?"

Sheng Mian moved her lips and forced a smile when she saw Gu Lanfeng next to her: "I don't know.

After that, she said to Gu Lanfeng again, "We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's go over there to chat."

Gu Lanfeng glanced at the two arrogant-looking companions beside Sheng Mian, frowned slightly, and then said softly, "Let's chat another day."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Sheng Mian stood there, her face turning pale and green.

What happened to Sheng Nuan and her mother? Who did her aunt marry?

She already knew about Sheng Nuan's rescue at school last time, and she also knew that Sheng Nuan could easily come up with 100,000 yuan.

Some people in the school group are already saying that Sheng Nuan may be really rich and beautiful. After all, not everyone can be calm and want to help others pay back 100,000 yuan.

Sheng Mian didn't take it seriously at first, but at this moment. She hesitated.

Could it be? Is it true?

Sheng Nuan left the banquet hall and went to the lounge at the back. She didn't know that Sheng Mian's companions were talking about the bodyguard she hired to show off. On the contrary, she was actually a little nervous now.

Before, Leslie's protection of her and Sheng Lingshan was not so exaggerated, but now, when she entered the lounge, she saw two men in black suits guarding the corridor not far behind her.

You don't need to think about it to know that there must be more than just those people on the surface.

This can only mean that there must be something wrong with Leslie.

He felt that someone might threaten her and Sheng Lingshan's safety, so he equipped them with such a high level of protection, even though they were in the safest country in the world.

Her former family is better. Although she is just a small upstart and can't give away the castle at every turn, But at least her life is safe.

Born in a place where dying due to murder in the Norman family is normal, maybe the castle she has never seen will become a legacy.

At this moment, Sheng Nuan suddenly heard a sound coming from the window. She turned her head subconsciously and saw a dagger thrust through the crack of the window. Then the window was opened by a hand covered in blood.

She was startled and was about to speak out when she saw it was Shang Yue.

Shang Yue didn't seem to expect that Sheng Nuan would be in this room. He was holding a gun in one hand, and his hand was covered with blood. When he saw Sheng Nuan, he paused for a moment, then swooped in and wiped off the blood on the window with his backhand. The windows are closed.

Almost the next moment, there was a knock on the door of the room, and the voice of the bodyguard, Swart, sounded outside.

"Miss Norman?"

Shang Yue's expression changed several times. Finally, he put the weapon on his back and leaned on the sofa, looking weak and helpless, and looked at Sheng Nuan pitifully: "Someone is chasing me; help me."

Sheng Nuan: Come again...?

Swart's voice sounded again: "Miss Norman, I'm coming in."

The next moment, the door lock was opened directly, and a tall and muscular man in a black uniform walked in, filled with a murderous aura.

Seeing Shang Yue on the sofa, the bodyguard quickly pulled out a gun and pointed it at him. At the same time, he said to Sheng Nuan, "Miss Norman, please come to my side."

Immediately afterwards, three more people in black uniforms appeared at the door. Qi Qi pointed his gun at Shang Yue.

An idea suddenly came to Sheng Nuan's mind. She pursed her lips and then said softly, "He just needs help; there is no malice."

Shang Yue glanced at Sheng Nuan's back without any trace.

Swart frowned. "Miss Norman, you may not know that he is from the Field family. He is very dangerous."

Sheng Nuan paused slightly and looked back at Shang Yue.

Shang Yue looked innocent and sincere: "I didn't want to hurt you. Someone is chasing me. If you don't save me, I will die."

Sheng Nuan glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and then turned back to Swart and said, "He is my friend; I must save him."

Swart looked tense. "Miss Norman, he is from the Field family. If you do this, it is likely to cause trouble for Mr. Leslie."

Sheng Nuan silently muttered, "This gentleman once saved me."

It wouldn't matter if Shang Yue really fell into trouble today, but she already knew from the customer service that his people had already arrived.

Even if she kicks Shang Yue out now, nothing will happen to him in the end. In that case, it's better to do him a favor.

She had at least helped him, and it might be useful at a critical moment.

Therefore, Sheng Nuan stood motionless in front of Shang Yue and coldly said to those in black uniforms, "Get out immediately!"

She said expressionlessly, "I don't understand what's going on between you, but I have to save him today. You can tell my father about this and let him decide."

The tall and strong Swart's expression changed several times, but in the end, he put it away. The weapon disappeared from her sight.

Sheng Nuan breathed a sigh of relief and turned around slowly.

Shang Yue actually didn't think Sheng Nuan would save him just now. He deliberately pretended to be pitiful and asked her for help out of bad taste.

But he didn't expect that she would actually choose to protect him, even though she knew there might be conflicts between him and his father.

Shang Yue's expression changed, and when he saw Sheng Nuan sitting far away from him without saying a word, he suddenly smiled again.

He said, "Thank you."

Sheng Nuan glanced at him and said nothing.

She was thinking about how to maximize the benefits of this matter, or was she actually wasting her efforts?

After all, according to the original plot information, Shang Yue is not a good person who repays kindness.

The girl sat there without saying a word, her expression a little serious and a faint flash of worry in her eyes. Only then did Shang Yue notice her look.

She must be here for a banquet. She is dressed up exquisitely, like the most beautiful doll in the window.

Seeing the worry in her eyes again, inexplicably, Shang Yue suddenly said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Sheng Nuan looked up at him and saw Shang Yue wink at her: "Don't be afraid."

Sheng Nuan didn't talk to him, and Shang Yue didn't care. He just leaned there and looked at her quietly and thoughtfully.

After a while, Shang Yue raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist. The watch seemed to show something. He raised the corner of his mouth and then stood up and said, "I'm leaving."

Sheng Nuan looked at him and saw the corners of his lips curled up. "You have helped me twice; how can I thank you, huh?"

Sheng Nuan thought for a while and said directly, "You're welcome, you. Just don't harm my family."

Shang Yue raised his eyebrows lightly. This time, he didn't speak. He glanced at her with an unclear meaning, then walked to the window again and climbed out of the window.
