Guy Harold cleared his throat, his voice was rich, and he analyzed it rationally for her.
"Kelly, while the court is adjourned now, drop the lawsuit! The Lu family already has conclusive evidence that Ning Chengxu is an illegitimate child. Once it is exposed, it will be harmful to you, me, and the royal family. If the king knows,
I won’t approve of your ruling on Lu Shengge.”
The eldest princess was even more angry, her eyes gleaming fiercely.
"Why! This bitch, Lu Shengge, deserves a life for killing my son. Do you think that if you threaten me with these old things, I will give in? They are dreaming!"
"I have to seek justice for A Xu, so what if I expose the scandal in the royal family! Even if the fish is dead and the net is broken! I will sue to the end!"
Guy Harold could not be persuaded, his face darkened, and he stopped talking.
...
As soon as Zhou Xiaoqing came out of the bathroom and walked in the aisle, she was taken away by Ning Chengen's people.
She was taken to the hotel next door and pushed into Ning Chengen's room. She fell a few steps before she regained her balance.
Ning Chengen was sitting leisurely by the window, lighting a cigar.
Under the hazy smoke, it still couldn't hide the anger under his amber pupils.
"It turns out that you agreed to go back to Ning's house so quickly to help Lu Shengge find evidence."
His voice was cold, and the smell of tobacco in the room mixed with the threatening aura on his body made people almost suffocated.
Zhou Xiaoqing took a deep breath, resisted the pressure he brought, and nodded, "That's right."
Snap——
There was a loud noise.
As soon as she finished answering, the teacup in Ning Chengen's hand flew toward her, and the porcelain pieces shattered at her feet.
Zhou Xiaoqing took two steps back to avoid being splashed by the tea cup.
Ning Chengen glared at her: "What benefits did the Lu family give you? To make you work for them like this and not hesitate to plot against your own family! You are such an ignorant white-eyed wolf!"
The last sentence seriously hurt Zhou Xiaoqing, and she faced Ning Chengen's oppressive gaze resolutely.
"I'm not familiar with you, and I also know that everyone in the Ning family doesn't welcome me. Although you are my relatives, you are more indifferent than strangers. Although Shengge and I are not biological sisters, she treats me wholeheartedly.
Well, if it weren't for her, I would have died countless times! You and the eldest princess want to judge her, and of course I can't just sit idly by and ignore it!"
Ning Chengen sneered: "No matter how nice she is to you, it's just because you have value. Is there anyone in this world who is closer than a relative? She killed your fourth brother with her own hands! Even if Ning Chengxu is an illegitimate child, he still counts as half
It is impossible for the Ning family to let the Lu family bully them! Moreover, once the Lu family exposes Ning Chengxu’s identity, do you understand how much damage the Ning family will suffer as a result?"
"I'm sorry, Master En, I only know Shengge."
Zhou Xiaoqing's eyes were red, and she bowed deeply to him, "I have no feelings for you, Ning Chengxu, or the Ning family. If you mind, my return banquet can be canceled. Just pretend that I haven't found my sister who has been missing for many years."
.”
Ning Chengen put out the cigarette butt, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, making it difficult to see his emotions.
Before leaving, Zhou Xiaoqing said one last sentence, "My grace may not understand the meaning of Shengge to me. I would rather not be the daughter of the Ning family than do anything detrimental to her!"
...
Si Nian drove and hurried to the countryside with the recovered Ji Yuting.
In the simple house, the man just woke up.
There was a thick bandage on his chest, faintly stained with blood, his lips were white, and there was no trace of blood on his face.
The pair of phoenix eyes, as blue as stars and gems, were raised with difficulty, and the eyelashes trembled slightly.
He tilted his head slightly and saw Ji Yuting sitting on the chair next to the bed.
"you?"
Ji Yuting played with the watch in his hand, without looking at him with his dark eyes, and spoke calmly.
"Even Shengge herself didn't know that she was so nervous that day that her hands were shaking when she fired. The bullet missed your heart, missed by two centimeters, and did not affect the arteries."
