Chapter 160 Soft spot
After such a farce, Ning Jiewei was punished to kneel outside the main gate of the Ning Mansion.
Even when kneeling, Ning Jiewei stood up straight, unwilling to compromise, with her head held high and her brows raised with stubbornness, as solid as a rock, showing no sign of weakness.
From the azure blue sky to the bright stars, Shengjing finally ended the hustle and bustle of the day and the quiet of the night, alternating.
Ning Fengzhe walked gracefully in a ray of clear light, his wide green robe flowing like water, and landed in front of Ning Jiewei.
"Isn't it ridiculous for an ant to shake a tree?"
At this moment, the long street is quiet and there are no pedestrians.
Ning Jiewei held onto the stone lion at the door and stood up with some difficulty. She raised her eyes proudly and sneered twice.
"The people speak highly of you, Mr. Ning, a modest gentleman, who humbles himself."
"how?"
"Big brother, you're not pretending anymore?"
"Where is your humility?"
"You are shameless and shameless. Is this your true 'virtuous' appearance?"
Hearing a hint of anger and shame in her tone, Ning Fengzhe smiled indifferently, his eyes full of disdain.
"Your ability to show off your abilities through empty talk is slightly better than your calculations."
"From what you said, you still want to continue making trouble?"
Ning Jiewei glanced at him sideways, with only contempt in her eyes.
"So you're here to test me?"
"I won't tell you."
"You can guess for yourself."
Ning Fengzhe's lips were leisurely and his concentration was unfathomable.
"For the sake of brother-sister love, I'll play with you."
"A kind word of advice: stop when you're done."
"If I leave no stone unturned, do you know what the consequences will be?"
Ning Jiewei's displeasure was obvious.
"I'm not joking, who are you looking down on?"
"Don't think I can't see it. You're afraid of being blamed by your mother, so you don't dare to touch me."
"Even if I take action, I will use others as a cover, and I will never be involved in any way."
"So, I just need to focus on you and nothing will go wrong."
"Even if you make trouble, I will accompany you."
"I'm not as cruel as you. I just want to teach you a lesson on behalf of my third sister."
"You should thank me for not killing us all!"
Ning Fengzhe frowned, looking gloomy.
"I showed mercy, not for my mother's sake."
Ning Jiewei glanced at him arrogantly with contempt.
"What else could it be for?"
"Mother is right, you are good for nothing except pretending!"
Ning Fengzhe laughed at himself.
"Who doesn't have a hidden mind and hidden intentions?"
"You like Prince Di Jin, but you didn't say it clearly, did you?"
Ning Jiewei was shocked.
"how do you know?"
Ning Fengzhe was calm and answered casually.
"Guess."
Ning Jiewei looked at him in surprise and confusion.
"You guessed so accurately?"
When she mentioned Yan Yu, the corners of her mouth curled up in a sweet arc.
"I love him so much, and I never intended to hide it, but I just haven't had the right opportunity to express my feelings to him yet."
"I believe that he treats me with special affection."
"Otherwise, how could I have escaped unharmed by assassinating him?"
"He even pardoned me in advance."
"Since you know that we love each other, you dare not do anything rash to me. It must be because of King Di Jin, right?"
There was a hint of truth in Ning Fengzhe's glance.
"I hope he really has a soft spot for you."
Then, he seemed to want to say something but stopped.
"Then I can..."
Ning Jiewei's look was full of disgust.
"Look at you, you're acting so pretentiously and not finishing what you're saying. Do you think you're calm and profound?"
"Don't bother. I'm not curious about what you want to say."
"Just keep your words and thoughts to yourself. No one in the world wants to hear them!"
Ning Fengzhe walked slowly with a hint of loneliness in his eyes.
"You are just a person like me. I don't care about you."
"You're close to Xi'er."
"Excuse me, doesn't she even want to listen to what I'm thinking?"
Ning Jiewei felt confused when she heard this.
What's going on with Third Sister?
How did it suddenly come to her?
After a moment's reaction, she answered.
"Yes."
"How can she be willing to listen to your concerns if you treat her like this?"
"The thing she hates most is people like you!"
Ning Fengzhe smiled slightly, but his expression was gloomy to the core.
"understood."
"Thank you."
After saying that, Ning Fengzhe turned and left.
Looking at his receding back, Ning Jiewei couldn't help but feel curious.
Her eyes were fixed on the direction he left and she began to talk to herself.
"What on earth is on his mind that he must have his third sister listen to?"
"Pfft, pfft, pfft, I told you, I'm not curious."
"I'm not curious at all."
"Humph, after all the so-called praise, do you really think that you two are brothers and sisters in need?"
"When they get ruthless, they even deceive themselves. Such people are really ridiculous."
"Just wait and see, there will be another great gift tomorrow!"
After a night, the morning glow slowly emerges, beautiful as a precious belt on a jade mountain, or as if it were an inch-long jade or an inch-long pearl.
Ning Jiewei came to Tongshitai and asked to see Xu Mingqian.
After getting permission, he went to the room where Xu Mingqian was without any hindrance.
Today, An Pengyi is on his turn to rest, so Xu Mingqian is the only one in the room.
When facing Ning Jiewei, Xu Mingqian's charming eyes still showed a bit of embarrassment.
"I believe you already know the truth about the assassination attempt at Emperor Jin's palace."
"The affection between you and me is nothing but an exploitation."
"Why did you come to me again?"
Ning Jiewei's charming eyes are so beautiful that they are stunningly beautiful.
"Everyone says I attract bees and butterflies."
"Only you know that this is my first time to taste the dream butterfly."
"I have doubts in my heart, and I have no one to talk to. I am lonely and can only come to you."
Xu Mingqian's lips were soft and gentle, and he smiled slightly.
"It's all said outside that there are birds singing and dancing in my backyard."
"I'm not going to hide the fact that even though I'm forty-three years old, this is the first time I've experienced the pleasure of subtle fragrance and sparse shadows."
Ning Jiewei forgot about acting for a moment and looked surprised.
"How is this possible?"
"Don't you have a wife?"
"I heard that Mrs. Xu has been married to you for more than 20 years and has given birth to a son and a daughter for you."
Xu Mingqian looked around at the bright windows and carefully lowered his voice.
"That's not my child."
"This is a secret, please don't spread it."
"Madam is jealous only for her own sake, not because she truly admires me."
"For many years, we never had a husband-and-wife relationship."
"We got married early in life, during the war, and the governor's palace fell to the enemy camp, so we didn't have a marriage certificate. After we settled down, we didn't go to get a replacement."
"According to the law, I actually have no relationship with her."
Ning Jiewei was completely shocked.
"Whose children are these boy and girl?"
"After all, we've lived under the same roof for so many years, how could you not mind?"
Xu Mingqian showed a trace of embarrassment.
"That's all I can say. I can't say any more."
"I beg your pardon."
"I thought that this life was a mess and I would never experience the everlasting love, but I didn't expect to meet you by chance."
"How can I be worthy of your beauty and youth?"
"From now on, let's not see each other again."
Seeing that he was about to order them to leave, Ning Jiewei quickly responded.
"Don't worry, I still have a plan... No... I still have something to ask you."
