White Lotus!

"Haha, it's my pleasure." Lieutenant Ding gave a shallow laugh as he let her in his car.

'How fake! Good thing that the General can see things clearly not to fall for her tricks. This kind of woman is worse than the one General is running after, at least that girl is straightforward in anything she does, not malicious like this one!'

Lieutenant Ding saw a lot of women run after his captain despite their fear of him, and doing all this just because of what? Money, status and power? Is it truly worth it?

He really didn't understand how those girls' minds work, but this girl that his Captain had his eyes on actually didn't want him, not even for the glory she would have after becoming his bride!

'It's a shame that she got crippled, right now is the most dangerous situation for her. Not only that weakling she likes would dump her, I don't think our Captain would keep this broken engagement either.'

In such a situation, the only option left was this girl sitting behind him, Ye Nuan.

Lieutenant Ding glanced over at Ye Nuan from the rear view mirror as he sighed in regret.

Even if she was not the real thing, but actually an adopted daughter of the Ruan family, even if she doesn't have the same surname as the Ruan's, even if she isn't as pretty as that real daughter of the Ruan family, the Captain needs to overlook all those flaws and reluctantly accept her!

If Ye Nuan ever heard these thoughts of Lieutenant Ding, she probably would cough up blood and faint in anger!

"Um, Lieutenant, how long would it take to reach the hospital? I'm worried about finding my sister as soon as possible. Maybe I can help take care of her?" Ye Nuan was anxious after losing trail of Xuanyuan Ye's car, that's why she was trying to get the guy to hurry over.

"Haha, no need to worry, Miss Ye. I'm sure your sister is just fine." Lieutenant Ding didn't bother to talk in a comforting voice, it was just a waste of time.

Ye Nuan could sense the roughness and reluctance from his voice very clearly, which made her mad.

'How dare you look down on me like this? You are just a lowly Lieutenant! Just you wait until I become the mistress of the Xuanyuan family, and the first person to be kicked out would be you!' 

Ye Nuan's blood was boiling from anger, but suppressing her anger, she put on a kind smile on her face.

"Well, as you know Lieutenant, I actually feel really bad for my sister. From childhood till now, she always only knew how to cause trouble inside and outside the family, no matter where she went or what she did, she would always end up dishonoring the family. After the last time we went to a banquet together, she created a huge mess there, almost causing our family's honor to fall. Returning home, she had a huge fight with our parents and brothers, moving out of the family." Ye Nuan didn't forget to subtly let Lieutenant Ding on in all the trouble Ruan Ji caused before she left the family.

"Mom and Dad thought that if she went out and broadened her horizon and view of the outside world, then she won't be like this anymore. However, who would've thought that…" Ye Nuan couldn't finish her sentence as she choked on her words, it was clear that she was crying. 

Ye Nuan looked really pitiful while she shed crocodile tears so perfectly, this scene was so perfect that any passing man would find her pitiful and want to come over and give her a hug, try to comfort her.

However, Ye Nuan underestimated her tears to work on a soldier, who was as straight as a bamboo. Ding An is a soldier who cut through blood tears, spending half his life on the battlefield. 

A weak person's tears won't move him, rather he would find that person to be annoying and useless. Because if the only thing they know is how to cry, then they don't need a weakling in their team!

"Ah, I see…" Lieutenant Ding's response was rather lukewarm, showing almost no concern nor bothering to even comfort Ye Nuan.

Obviously, the other side was very shocked that they stopped talking and stared at his back in surprise. 

'W… why is he responding like this? He shouldn't react so weakly...'

'Don't tell me, he doesn't care at all that a girl in front of him is crying so weak and pitifully? Isn't comforting the crying girl the normal response in this situation?'

'Or is it that he doesn't understand? Perhaps he is ignoring me?'

Before Ye Nuan could finish her speculation, the car stopped with a rather strong jerk, making her come back to reality. 

Ding An came out of the car and walked behind to open the car door for Ye Nuan, asking her politely to get out of the car, "Miss Ye, we have arrived, please."

Seeing the smile on Lieutenant Ding's face, Ye Nuan couldn't understand what he was thinking at all. But seeing his reaction was still the same as before, Ye Nuan breathed a sigh of relief.

'It doesn't seem like he took my words in another way. I almost forgot that soldiers in the battlefields tend to be a bit foolish and simple, they can't understand the intrigues and hidden meanings behind words. I was thinking too much just now.'

Thinking so, Ye Nuan flashed her usual gentle smile at Ding An as she nodded and followed him from behind.

'She was smearing the Eldest Miss on purpose just now, wasn't she? Does she really think we are foolish enough to not understand what she thinks? It seems I really should warn the Captain about this two faced woman! We can't allow such a white lotus woman into our General's prestigious family!'
