Chapter 698 Ye Lan: Ningguang is crazy!
Ningguang was silent for a moment, crossed her hands in front of her chest, rested her chin on them, and said solemnly: "I'm thinking about how to take a further step and consolidate the relationship between me and Shao Yun."
When Ye Lan heard this, she suddenly understood.
It turns out that Ningguang’s worry was not anything else, but how to better establish a close relationship with Shao Yun.
After a little thought, Ye Lan confidently put forward his suggestion.
"How difficult is that? Just find a suitable excuse to give him some Mora. After all, you are rich, and Shao Yun has a special liking for Mora. If you cater to his preferences, wouldn't everyone be happy?"
However, Ningguang did not seem satisfied with Ye Lan's proposal.
She sneered and commented, "Ye Lan, I suddenly realized that your thoughts are too superficial."
When Ye Lan heard Ning Guang calling her superficial, she secretly complained in her heart, "You asked me to give you advice, and I gave you advice, but you said I was superficial. I'm really hard to please."
But on the surface, Ye Lan still looked calm, and asked Ning Guang: "It's not that I'm superficial, but besides Mora, do you think there is anything else that Shao Yun would be interested in?"
Ningguang did not answer immediately. She tapped the table lightly with her fingers, frowned slightly, and thought about how to answer Ye Lan's question.
After a while, she slowly said, "Giving Mora as a gift is indeed a common and safe method. After all, who doesn't like Mora? I don't feel sorry for Mora, but I think if I continue to give her away like this, Shao Yun may gradually lose interest in Mora."
"If I send him one or two times, Shao Yun might get excited, but as time goes on, the excitement brought by Mora will definitely decrease gradually."
"Moreover, this kind of relationship where benefits are exhausted and estranged is difficult to maintain for a long time."
Seeing that Ningguang didn't like the option of giving Mora, Ye Lan began to think about what other gifts or ways could please Shao Yun.
However, after thinking hard for a while, she found that she couldn't come up with a better idea.
Give him an official position. Regardless of whether Shao Yun will accept it or not, he is not cut out to be an official, right?
Beauty? If you've had enough, just say it.
Just when Ye Lan was feeling helpless, Ningguang suddenly thought of a breakthrough!
Her eyes lit up, and she asked back along this line of thought: "Did you know that Ying is pregnant?"
Ye Lan nodded and replied calmly: "I know. When I met Shao Yun just now, he told me."
Ningguang's mind moved, and she began to analyze the current situation.
"Just now at the welcoming banquet, Ying mentioned that some of her friends were in Fontaine, and Fontaine had recently suffered a flood, so large-scale reconstruction work would be necessary after the disaster."
"Since Ying cares so much about Feng Dan, why shouldn't I please her? If Ying is happy, Shao Yun will be happy too, isn't that wonderful?"
When Ye Lan heard this, she thought that the plan of starting with Ying, then showing courtesy to Shao Yun, and then building a relationship with him was indeed a good one, so she nodded in agreement.
"This is a really good idea. What are your specific ideas?"
Ningguang suddenly remembered that more than three months ago, she had sent Ye Lan to Fontaine to visit Yan Fei, so she mentioned it casually.
"Ye Lan, you went to Fontaine as a special envoy before, so you should be familiar with the situation there."
Ye Lan nodded and replied, "Yes, I know a lot about the situation in Fontaine. But since I didn't stay there for long and I have been living in Mo Mang Palace, I didn't collect much information."
"However, I am quite familiar with the customs and practices of Fontaine."
After listening to this, Ningguang thought for a moment and then told him the plan she had come up with.
"I plan to send a large amount of supplies and donations to Fontaine in the name of Liyue officials after the flood in Fontaine is over."
"Moreover, we must use the names of Shao Yun, Ying, and Paimeng. In other words, we must announce to the public that these three came to me specifically to seek funds for the post-disaster reconstruction of Fontaine."
At this point, Ningguang looked at Ye Lan and continued, "When the time comes, you will be responsible for the specific actions. What do you think?"
When Ye Lan heard this, she thought that this business that could earn publicity for Shao Yun seemed to be quite good.
"Yes, that's true. Moreover, this kind of thing that earns Shao Yun fame is indeed more meaningful than simply giving him Mora."
Seeing Ye Lan agree so readily, Ningguang's frown relaxed a little and she showed a hint of satisfaction.
"Well, after the flood in Fontaine is over, you can send these things over..."
However, before Ningguang finished her words, her brows furrowed again.
She always felt that this plan to strengthen the relationship between herself and Shao Yun seemed not perfect enough and the effect was not strong enough!
Seeing this, Ye Lan couldn't help but feel a little surprised, and asked quickly: "What's wrong? Hasn't the problem of improving your relationship with Shao Yun been solved? Why are you still frowning?"
Ningguang took a deep breath, pursed her lips, revealed a hint of envy, and said slowly: "But, after all, this is still... a little inadequate."
"It would be great if Shao Yun could treat me like he treats Ying..."
When Ye Lan heard this, her heart was shocked and her pupils shrank slightly. She wondered if she had heard it wrong. What did Ningguang just say?
"Wait a minute, Ningguang, what do you mean?"
Ningguang gently stroked her cheek, which was as white as mutton fat jade. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a charming smile, and asked softly: "Ye Lan, take a look at my recent appearance and my skin, how do you think it is?"
Ye Lan immediately understood Ning Guang's intention when she heard this. She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, Ning Guang wanted to be Shao Yun's "mistress"! Isn't it obvious that she is tired of living?
Ye Lan stared at Ningguang as if she were a fool, and advised her mercilessly: "Ningguang, I suddenly realized that you seem to have become stupid."
"Do you really think that you are more attractive than Ying in Shao Yun's eyes? I advise you not to have such wishful thinking and give up on this idea as soon as possible!"
The last person who dared to seduce Shao Yun had already gone with his clan to meet the Red King Akhmar, Amon.
However, Ningguang ignored Ye Lan's advice. She just flipped her wrist and a small white porcelain bottle appeared in her hand like a magic trick.
Ningguang proudly held the small porcelain bottle in front of Ye Lan, shook it, and said with a smile: "Look, what is this?"
Ye Lan looked closely and saw that the small white porcelain bottle was completely white with a pink cloth strip stuffed at the mouth of the bottle, which looked very suggestive.
Her brows knitted slightly, and an ominous premonition surged in her heart. She narrowed her eyes vigilantly, staring at the small porcelain bottle in Ningguang's hand, and said hesitantly:
"This bottle...why does it look so familiar? Could this be...the secret medicine from Zhudianfang?"
Ningguang saw that Ye Lan could actually recognize the contents of the white porcelain bottle, so she nodded and said in a relaxed tone, "Haha, yes, this is the secret medicine from Zhudianfang."
"This is one of the many relics left after Mr. Shao Yun cleaned up the Zhudian Workshop."
"Originally, these things should have been destroyed, but I managed to keep some of them in case of emergency."
Ye Lan thought carefully about the effects of this medicine and the rumors in her mind, and then said:
"I remember that this thing seems to be a secret medicine that can make women pregnant immediately after taking it after experiencing sexual intercourse! You don't want to..."
Ningguang nodded when she saw that Ye Lan knew this so clearly, and then told Ye Lan some secrets about this medicine.
"You are right. In the past, some women from the jewelry shop would secretly take this kind of medicine after having sex with those brainless rich businessmen in order to blackmail them so that they could get pregnant."
"Then what? Do you want to imitate..." Ye Lan asked, her brows slightly frowned, as if she had guessed what would happen next.
"That's right. These women will either ask the rich businessmen for a huge amount of abortion fees, or use the fetuses in their belly as a threat and ask the rich businessmen to marry them. From then on, they will become rich wives by virtue of their children." Ningguang said lightly.
"Although the latter may end up in a tragic situation, in many cases, as long as the woman does not make a fuss, the wealthy businessman who is chosen as the victim will not be short of the money. If the woman chooses the former, the abortion fee will be enough to live for a lifetime."
When Ye Lan heard Ningguang use the woman from Zhudianfang as an example, her heart tightened.
She looked at Ningguang nervously and asked, "You...you don't really want to do this?"
Ningguang looked at Ye Lan's nervous expression and her smile grew wider.
She said slowly: "Yes, even if it is just a pure physical relationship, it won't be very strong; but... if there is a strong bond like blood to maintain it, then what do I have to worry about..."
When Ye Lan heard that Ningguang was so bold as to have such an idea, she stood up from her chair and warned, "Ningguang, you... aren't you afraid of death? Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"
Ningguang was of course aware of the risks involved, but the rewards were so great that she was willing to take the risk.
"The risk is indeed great, but if this plan succeeds, the benefits will be beyond any amount of Mora."
Ye Lan earnestly advised Ningguang to think twice before acting. After all, plotting against Shao Yun was simply courting death!
“How can this possibly succeed? Ningguang, you’re gambling with your life! You’re already very powerful in Liyue now, there’s no need to take this risk…”
Ye Lan became more and more excited as she spoke, and her voice unconsciously became louder.
Ningguang waved her hand, signaling Ye Lan to calm down and sit down and talk slowly.
After Ye Lan sat down again, Ning Guang continued, "I know the risks involved, but what if we can go one step further? After all, Shao Yun and I are just a bond bound by Mora."
Having said this, Ningguang paused for a moment, then continued as if she had made up her mind:
"But if we have a blood bond... For example, if I encounter a big problem that I can't solve in the future and Mora is useless, what should I do?"
After saying this, Ningguang placed her hands on her lower abdomen, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile.
"But if we have a blood relationship, it will be different. At that time, I will tell Shao Yun directly, for the sake of our child, are you sure you want to ignore me?"
"As a father, would he just watch me get into trouble and do nothing?"
Then, Ningguang began to rub her lower abdomen slowly, as if she had begun to bear Shao Yun's blood.
"I don't believe it. Shao Yun has no fatherly nature!"
