Chapter 786: Untitled

Ye Ningyuan took out the present which he had prepared earlier on and wished her a happy birthday.

Xu Xing opened the box. It was a four-leaf-clover necklace with diamonds in the middle, and the leaves were made of green gems. It was very beautiful and was designed and handmade by Gu Xiaochen, the famous designer at An Ning International. The most stunning part was not the leaves, but the six-star cut diamond. The cutting was difficult but it was perfect. The cutting of the diamond represented happiness, and it was the necklace that made An Ning International’s four-leaf-clover necklace series famous.

“It’s so pretty!” She saw this necklace in a jewelry magazine before and was the only one in the world. She wanted to buy it and asked the Zhang family to help her ask Third Young Master Ye if he could sell it to her. However, they were told that it was not for sale, so she did not expect that Ye Ningyuan would give it to her.

She told him about this necklace when they met a while back, but she didn’t expect that he remembered it so clearly and even gave it to her. Xu Xing was very happy.

“Don’t you like this necklace? It’s useless if we just put it in the safe, so you can have it and wear it if you like,” Ye Ningyuan said. He had spent a lot of effort to convince his daddy to give it to him.

Third Young Master Ye had planned to give it to Cheng Anya as a present on their wedding anniversary. This necklace was designed for Cheng Anya and was supposed to be given to her. Ye Ningyuan failed to get it from his daddy, so he decided to ask his mommy for it and finally got it. But, the price was that he had to draw a portrait for Cheng Anya. Ye Ningyuan was good at drawing, sketching, oil painting, etc. Basically, he was good at all sorts of drawings.

But, he had a taboo, and that was he always drew scenery and not people. The only person that he had drawn before was Cheng Anya.

“Thank you, Ningyuan.” Xu Xing smiled until her eyes were almost closed. She was happy as she liked it a lot and wanted to wear it right away. Ye Ningyuan gentlemanly helped her wear it. The necklace was originally beautiful and Xu Xing was also very pretty. Therefore, it was like jewelry matching with a beauty.“Ningyuan, could you fulfill one of my wishes?” Xu Xing raised her fair and slender fingers and asked in a perturbed manner. Ye Ningyuan looked at the bright smile on her face and nodded. “What is it?”

“I am a little greedy, but can you draw a portrait of me?” Xu Xing asked. She knew about Ningyuan’s taboo, but there was a year when she followed the Jiang Lixue couple to the Ye family during Chinese New Year, and Ye Ningyuan happened to be absent. Ye Hailan saw her for the first time and pointed at her in a shocking manner. “Hmmph, aren’t you the sister in my brother’s drawing? But, you look a little different.”

That was when Xu Xing knew that it was not that Ye Ningyuan did not draw people, but he only drew one person, and that was Xu Nuo.

This incident had passed for a few years, but it was like a prick in Xu Xing’s heart and would hurt sometimes. She was not jealous of her sister, but she felt that she would be willing to die if Ye Ningyuan would help her draw too. Just like how her sister was willing to die for him.

She knew that when they just met, Ye Ningyuan felt unfair for Xu Nuo because Xu Xing had gotten all the love. Although it was not Xu Xing’s fault, Xu Xing also knew that she really had too much and should not steal the only thing that her sister had.

But, her sister was dead and she could fight for what she wanted.

If her sister was alive, she would not fight with her no matter how much she loved Ye Ningyuan. After all, they were twins but had very different lives. God was indeed unfair. But sometimes, she would think otherwise. God was fair because although she had everything, the only thing she wanted belonged to her sister. It did not belong to her no matter how much she tried.

Ye Ningyuan looked at her gently and said, “Xu Xing, you know that I don’t draw people. Sorry.”He rejected her with a simple sentence.

Ye Ningyuan had a weird aura. He spoke with no emotions and his tone was normal, but it sounded like he could not be overruled. It was as if his determination was undisputed.

Xu Xing looked down and smiled. She hid the sadness in her eyes and acted like she was fine. “You’re so stingy.”

‘Ningyuan, I don’t mind if you remember my sister forever and love her. But, could you leave a place for me in your heart? I will not fight with my sister and only want a small corner. Is that impossible?’

‘Really impossible?’

She was upset but kept it to herself. There was still a sweet smile on her face, and she did not forget herself.

Ye Ningyuan went back to the Top Terrorist Organization’s headquarters.

The underworld was peaceful nowadays. Although there were small conflicts occasionally, he did not have to settle it personally. He had four hall masters, namely Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. They were in charge of intelligence, weapon trade, finance, and discipline. There were other four hall masters who were in charge of the Middle East, Northern America, Eastern Europe, and Asia. Their powers were spread evenly, and this was different from the way Chu Li, Jason, and Black J distributed their powers in the past.

He walked past the hall and a beautiful lady stopped him. “Big boss, I have an emergency to report!”A refined young man wearing a glass with gold frames walked toward them slowly. Ye Ningyuan was at the spiral staircase and waved his hands. “Vermilion Bird and White Tiger, let’s talk about it tomorrow even if the sky is falling down.”

Vermilion Bird and White Tiger looked at each other. The beautiful lady stomped her feet. “He went to accompany that delicate princess again. Ahhhhhh, I want to kill someone!”

She stomped off in a furious manner after she said that.

The refined man pushed up his glasses and mumbled. “This woman is so scary.”

He shook his head and went to the basement again.

The Top Terrorist Organization’s headquarters was set in the basement of this castle. It was a huge underworld.

Ye Ningyuan went back to his room and tugged at his collar before sitting at his desk. It was already midnight.

He opened the drawer and took out a sketchbook. There were four words on it: my wife Xu Nuo.

He flipped open the book and it was as if Xu Nuo was alive and jumping around on the paper. She was only seven on the first page, and it was the scene when they met. There was a field of white camellias behind her and she stood in front of it in a red long dress. She was holding a white whip and looked cold. Her eyes were dark like shining black diamonds, bright and beautiful.

The sky on Lotus Island was blue, and the environment was beautiful. The Lotus Island in his drawing was as if there were only the white camellias and this beautiful young lady.This was Xu Nuo when she was seven.
