Chapter 1330: I came to you for nurture 2 Chapter 1330: I came to you for nurture 2 Out of curiosity, Tao Meijiao followed her after she walked away, slowly trailing behind.

From a distance, she saw Li Rong’er indeed stopping at the Xiao Mansion gate, leaning on a crutch.

The servants of the Xiao Family were more disciplined than those of other wealthy families and were always polite to people.

The gatekeeper had been working at the Xiao Mansion for quite some time and recognized Li Rong’er.

He sized her up and down without a word.

“Older brother…” Li Rong’er said, “I am here to see the Second Master of Xiao Family, could you please announce my presence?”

“The second master said he has nothing to do with you anymore and refuses to pass on any messages,” the gatekeeper waved his hand dismissively, “Off you go, off you go!”

Li Rong’er took out ten copper coins from her bosom, “Young man, please announce my arrival…

”

The gatekeeper stuffed the copper coins back into her hand, “I’ve already told you the second master won’t see you…”

“How could the instructions from a few months ago still count?” she pleaded, “Young man, I really have urgent matters to see him for.

Please trouble yourself for me!”

The gatekeeper did go to announce her, but soon returned, “The second master said he doesn’t wish to see you and tells you to roll as far away as possible.” After that, he closed the door.

“How could this be…” Li Rong’er’s face turned pale.

Walking with a crutch was already difficult, and upon hearing that Xiao Yishan refused to see her, she almost couldn’t stand.

She rushed to the main entrance within a few steps; the crutch tapped against the ground, making a ‘thud thud thud’ sound, as she forcefully knocked on the vermilion gate, “Open the door, open the door!

Brother Xiao, it’s Rong’er!”

No matter how hard she knocked, no one opened the door.

Unable to stand, she fell seated on the ground, her cheeks flooded with tears, crying her heart out.

The passersby didn’t understand the situation and thought she was a weak girl crying outside the Xiao Family door, gradually drawing a crowd.

“Girl, what’s the matter?” asked an Aunt who was passing by.

“I am an old acquaintance of the Second Master of Xiao Family, but they won’t let me in…” Rong’er cried hysterically.

“What are you looking for him for?” A younger man asked.

“IaEUR|” Li Rong’er, biting her lower lip, was tearful.

The young man said, “It couldn’t be that Second Master Xiao has wronged her, could it…?”

“Don’t talk nonsense about things you don’t understand.

Even the servants of the Xiao Family are very polite; the master can’t be a bad person…” remarked a passerby.

Li Rong’er just kept crying, and the crowd of onlookers grew.

The Xiao Mansion gate finally opened, and Xiao Yishan’s tall and sturdy figure walked out from inside.

Those nearby who recognized him knew although his face looked fierce, he was actually a good person who often helped neighbors move and carry goods.

Those who didn’t know him were frightened by his appearance.

When Li Rong’er saw him, she tried to rise from the ground with her crutch but failed after several attempts and fell to the ground.

Xiao Yishan did not help her up, and said with a cold expression, “What do you want with me?”

“Hey, how can you be so heartless, man?” An Aunt among the onlookers couldn’t stand it any longer, helped Li Rong’er up, “This girl has lost a leg and can’t stand.

You don’t care and even have such a cold attitude!”

“Just look at how pitiful the girl is, missing a leg at such a young age…”

“Looking at her, she seems to be only in her twenties.

How long is her life ahead and how is she supposed to live…”

One after another, people began to worry for Li Rong’er.

.cO

Upon hearing the crowd’s words, Li Rong’er also cried even more, while her drooping eyelids occasionally stole glances at Xiao Yishan, thinking to herself in frustration, why was this blockhead just standing there?

Shouldn’t he be welcoming her into the mansion first?
