After coming out of Lu Yunting's study, Ning Yujin looked at the blue sky and white cloud-green trees outside, as if a heavy stone had fallen from her heart, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Sometimes, there are some things that really make you feel better if you have to say them out.
After passing through the nine-curved corridor, I walked out relaxedly, but I met Lu Pingting halfway.
She leaned against a red pillar, holding the sword in both hands, as if waiting for her deliberately.
Ning Yujin immediately slowed down her pace, suppressed her smile, and walked slowly past her.
Just as he passed by, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Lu Pingting say quietly: "Are you happy to get rid of my brother?"
Ning Yujin stopped and turned around, looked at Lu Pingting, and narrowed her eyes slightly: "First, I didn't get rid of your brother; second, I was happy, but not happy because I got rid of your brother.
, please pay attention to your words."
"Oh, you are really good at forcing arguments." Lu Pingting slowly walked to Ning Yujin, stretched out her hand to lift her chin, leaned over and said fiercely, "Are you relying on someone to love you deeply?
I love you, so why are you so unscrupulous? Do you know that my eldest brother is willing to do anything for you, so you are so guiltless? Are you a human heart or a snake heart? Do you know that my eldest brother has done everything for you?
How much is it? Are you just pretending to be stupid and feeling at ease?"
Ning Yujin reached out and took off Lu Pingting's hand and looked at her coldly: "What about you? You've been clamoring to find your destiny one day, so what do you think of Xu Zhongsheng who has been by your side all this time?!"
"I..." Lu Pingting seemed to have been poked in a sore spot. She jumped away and glared at Ning Yujin fiercely, "This is between him and me. What do you know!"
Ning Yujin suddenly snorted coldly: "Then you don't know anything about your brother and I, and you have no right to say anything."
"It's different, it's not the same at all!" Lu Pingting said with excitement, her whole body was trembling, "Not everyone is as bright and beautiful as they appear. He is my brother, and he has suffered so much that I
It’s all in sight…”
When Ning Yujin saw her like this, she couldn't help but reach out and pat her shoulder, and said slowly: "You are right, your brother and I are different from you and Xu Zhongsheng."
"Time is the best way to create love. Maybe one day you will be tired and no longer pursue the right person. You may fall in love with Xu Zhongsheng and eventually get married with him. However, I have no way to fall in love with your brother again."
"because……"
"There is someone in my heart. He has taken up everything in me. There is no space left for others."
"Perhaps this is what you call a destined person. He appeared at the right time, neither early nor late. The moment I was about to fall in love with him, he appeared. From then on, everyone became a passer-by.
He is the only one who is imprinted in my mind and remains in my heart, which can never be erased."
The moment she walked out of the gate of Yunting Villa, Ning Yujin saw Mo Jingxiao at a glance.
There were so many people bustling at the door, but he could be found among the crowd without searching for it.
At that moment, it seemed that he was the only one left in the world, and the others were just a blur of background.
She watched the tall figure walking towards her through the crowd step by step. His eyebrows, eyes and hair gradually became clearer, and she couldn't help but raise her lips and reveal a smile.
Ning Yujin, Ning Yujin, there are so many women in this world, how lucky are you?

"This is the list of persons involved in this case. This is the confession of all the accomplices and principal criminals. This is the verdict. Please read it to His Majesty King Ding."
In the prefect's Yamen, Xu Jinsong summarized all the results of the interrogations over the past few days and handed them over to Mo Jingxiao for review.
Mo Jingxiao took it over and flipped through it casually, then handed it to Ning Yujin next to him: "Do you want to read it?"
Ning Yujin was immediately frightened when she saw the pile of confessions. She quickly shook her head and said, "When will this happen? Master Xu should pick some key points and talk about what we don't know."
Xu Jinsong said: "Basically, it is similar to what is known. The reason why the man took the blame for Chen Ding was because his children were kidnapped. Now that the people sent out have found his son and daughter, he has also changed his confession.
He confessed to everything he had done for Chen Ding. The identity of the murderer sent to assassinate Shi Yuan was also confirmed, and he was Wu Daying's cousin Wu Laohu. All the personal and material evidence is complete and can be sent to the Criminal Department of the capital."
Mo Jingxiao stretched out his hand and knocked rhythmically on the edge of the table, and suddenly asked: "Have you ever thought about it, Chen Ding has been an official for so many years, and his political achievements in various states are clear, and he can barely be considered a good official, but
Why did you become confused and end up in this situation when you were about to leave office?"
"This..." Xu Jinsong couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the scene when he first met Chen Ding, and said, "He only has one daughter, Chen Fangqin, and he is married again. Maybe he wants to be with her when he is old.
My son, Chenghuan, must have died."
"This is unscientific," Ning Yujin said with her hands on her face, "Why didn't he want a son when he was young, but he wanted a son when he was about to die? And I heard that Chen Ding had a deep affection for Chen Fangqin's mother.
I have also loved Chen Fangqin since childhood, and this should not be the case."
Xu Jinsong also frowned: "I have been following him for three or four years. If I can't see a person's true face after such a long time, then I am really blind. Mr. Chen, he was not like this before.
people."
Mo Jingxiao stopped knocking on the table and said coldly: "There should be some inside story about this matter. Who did Chen Ding hear from when he heard that he could have a son that way? That white figure we saw at the crime scene
Who is it and why has no one mentioned it?”
At this point, he slapped the table and stood up: "Go to prison!"
The three people hurried to the prison, and just when they saw the prison leader walking out in a hurry, when they saw them, they immediately slapped their thighs and shouted: "Oh, ancestors!"
Xu Jinsong had a bad feeling when he saw the prison boss looking like this, and quickly asked him: "What happened in the prison?"
The cell leader quickly saluted the three of them and replied: "Ms. Chen and her daughter committed suicide by hanging from a beam!"
"I'll do it!" Ning Yujin immediately reached out and slapped her forehead, "Why do people die every time I come here?"
Mo Jingxiao pulled her and walked inside: "Go in and see if there is any hope."
Chen Ding and his daughter were imprisoned in two prisons respectively, but the time of hanging was almost the same. After they discovered that Chen Ding had hanged themselves, they immediately sent someone to take a look in the women's prison, and found that his daughter also
Out of breath.
Ning Yujin checked the situation of the two people, stood up and said: "They are all dead and there is no way to save them. Moreover, homicide is ruled out."
In other words, did they really hang themselves?
Xu Jinsong's eyes suddenly darkened and he looked at the cell leaders of the two cells: "Why did you let them hang themselves?"
The two people stretched out their hands to wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads, and said cautiously: "We left for a while, but we didn't expect them to..."
Ning Yujin immediately waved his hand and said: "Those who want to die will die no matter what method they use. You can't help but watch. The problem now is that once these two people die, our guesses will always become guesses. What is behind this?"
It’s a secret that I guess will never see the light of day again.”
Mo Jingxiao frowned, and Xu Jinsong also frowned.
Seeing this, Ning Yujin sighed and said, "Take them to the autopsy room. I will check again to see if there are any other causes of death."
