Wang Bang took Shangguan Wan Ning on a winding path and made a big circle, but Shangguan Wan Ning had seen a map of the nearby area in Mu Jingrui's room last night.
She knew that although they walked for a long time, they actually didn't go very far, they just walked in circles.
About an hour later, Wang Bang took Shangguan Wan Ning to a secluded place with a warehouse in front.
Wang Bang was familiar with the situation and avoided the guards' eyes, and sneaked into a dark warehouse with Shangguan Wan Ning.
"The person you want to see is inside." Wang Bang pointed towards the corner, "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. You have to go back before Mu Jingrui returns to Shenji Camp."
Shangguan Wan Ning looked around the corner.
There were piles of boxes, blocking her view. She could only see a pair of feet exposed.
She walked over cautiously and saw a weak man lying in a dark and damp place.
A small beam of sunlight shone down from the exhaust vent on the roof. He placed his hands in the sunlight and closed his eyes tightly.
"father……"
Shangguan Wan Ning's eyes heated up, and she hurried over, helped her father up and leaned against her.
"Dad, how are you? Answer me, dad..."
Shangguan Wan Ning had never seen her father in such a miserable state, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Shangguan Yue seemed to have heard his daughter's call and slowly opened his eyes.
"Ning'er..."
Shangguan Yue's voice was hoarse, and bloodshot eyes oozed from his chapped lips. "Ning'er, how...how did you come..."
"Dad, don't worry, I will definitely rescue you."
Shangguan Yue shook his head and whispered: "Don't worry about me...the court may change...go back and tell your uncle...take your mother and leave the capital, and don't worry about anything..."
Shangguan Wan Ning burst into tears, holding back her tears and shook her head.
"Dad, I have grown up, and I will protect my mother. If you hold on, I will come to save you..."
Shangguan Yue still shook his head, not even having the strength to speak.
Shangguan Wan Ning took out a pill from her purse and fed it to Shangguan Yue's mouth, but Wang Bang quickly grabbed her wrist with quick eyesight.
"What are you going to do?"
"This medicine is to replenish vitality and increase nutrition and physical strength for my father. He is already old and cannot withstand your torture."
Although Shangguan Wan Ning's face was stained with tears, her eyes were extremely cold, exuding a cold light.
"I'm warning you, if anything happens to my father, I will make sure that you and the master behind you are buried with him."
Wang Bang let go of Shangguan Wan Ning's hand.
After Shangguan Wan Ning fed her father the medicine, his father fell into a deep sleep.
She dragged her father to the corner and let him lean against the wall. Looking at her father's face, she arranged her father's messy hair.
Scenes from the previous life's experiences came to mind.
Shangguan Wan Ning stood up slowly, looked at Wang Bang and said, "Take off your coat."
"What?"
"Take it off." Shangguan Wan Ning scolded.
Wang Bang hesitated a little, but took it off and handed it to Shangguan Wan Ning.
Shangguan Wan Ning covered her father's body and turned to look at Wang Bang. "Listen clearly, my father is the head of hundreds of officials. He has been pampered for decades. He cannot withstand any abuse and torture. You want me to do it for you
When doing things, you'd better be kind to my dad."
"Then it depends on your performance. If you kill Mu Jingrui tonight, you can pick him up tomorrow morning."
"Okay, it's settled."
Shangguan Wan Ning looked back at her father deeply, and walked out of the warehouse holding back her sadness.
She has been calm and composed since she returned to Shenji Camp, and did not show any abnormality in front of anyone.
She even continued to examine the soldiers' bodies together with other doctors.
Wang Bang monitored Shangguan Wan Ning from a distance and was admired by this woman's calmness.
After the morning meeting the next day, Mu Jingrui couldn't wait to rush back to Shenji Camp.
He came to Shangguan Wan Ning's room and saw her leaning on the window sill alone in a daze, so he put the food box in his hand on the table.
"Ning'er, I brought you some cakes from the capital, come and eat."
Shangguan Wan Ning was stunned, turned back to look at Mu Jingrui, and slowly walked up to him.
"Actually...there are two things I've always wanted to ask you."
Mu Jingrui looked at Shangguan Wanning and said with a smile, "I'm not used to you being so serious all of a sudden. Just ask me what's the matter."
"Why...are you so nice to me?"
Mu Jingrui was stunned for a moment, as Shangguan Wan Ning's question seemed a bit unexpected.
Then, he smiled faintly and replied: "Because I love you. Ning'er, you should know that."
"This is the second thing I want to ask you." Shangguan Wan Ning's eyes welled up with tears, "Since you love me, why... do you want to regret your marriage?"
"Ning'er, I have been looking for opportunities to explain to you about regretting the marriage." Mu Jingrui held Shangguan Wanning's hand, "I never thought about regretting the marriage. From the beginning to the end, the person I wanted to marry was...
It's you. It's just..."
Mu Jingrui fully explained the situation at that time.
Only then did Shangguan Wan Ning realize that there really was a hidden story that she didn't know about.
"Ning'er, you have to believe me, I really have no choice. Xiaoyan is my only relative, and she was pregnant at the time, so I couldn't leave her alone."
Mu Jingrui increased the strength of his palms. He looked at Shangguan Wan Ning, who had a calm face, and his thoughts became panicked.
"Ning'er, please give me another chance. The Queen Mother has passed away. I promise you that such a thing will never happen again."
Shangguan Wan Ning was silent for a long time and pulled her hand away from Mu Jingrui's palm.
"Even if I believe you... we can't go back." Shangguan Wan Ning's voice was very soft, "You have already married Yin Yuqing, and I... also have an engagement with Brother Yao."
"Don't worry about Yin Yuqing, don't worry about Sun Jinyao." Anger surged in Mu Jingrui's heart, "You Shangguan Wan Ning can only be my woman in this life."
Mu Jingrui's domineering attitude made Shangguan Wan Ning feel helpless.
"Ning'er..."
"You can betray me for your sister, then...if one day I betray you for my family, will you forgive me?"
Mu Jingrui watched Shangguan Wan Ning's tears fall silently, and his heart felt like a knife.
"No matter what you did to me, I won't blame you. Ning'er... um..."
Before Mu Jingrui finished speaking, Shangguan Wan Ning took the initiative to kiss his lips.
This made his thoughts swirl, his heart surge, and the blood in his body seemed to be on fire.
Mu Jingrui hugged Shangguan Wan Ning tightly and responded to her kiss.
Shangguan Wan Ning's hand quietly went around Mu Jingrui's back, took out the dagger prepared in advance from her sleeve, and plunged it into Mu Jingrui's body.
