The reborn daughter of the Marquis Mansion takes over the world
Chapter 292: Lure the snake out of its hole (page 12)
When the two arrived at Sifang Building, Shopkeeper Hao welcomed them to the private room upstairs.
As soon as Ning Ziqing saw Jiang Quhan's cheerful expression, he knew in his heart that the matter between him and Yaoyao had been settled.
Ning Ziqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Yaoyao sat next to her. His eyes inadvertently passed over the mark between Yaoyao's lips and neck, and he couldn't help but cast a reproachful look at Jiang Quhan.
"Some people, please be more careful and know how to show mercy!"
Jiang Quhan, however, didn't take it seriously. He poured the wine leisurely, with a proud smile on his lips, and retorted: "Could it be that bastard Huo Yunjue bullied you again? I have to remind him when I get back!"
Ning Ziqing: "..."
During the banquet, Jiang Quhan and Prince Sola toasted and drank happily, and their talk was very lively, and his snarky attitude was fully revealed.
He peeked at Yaoyao from time to time, looking at her with tender eyes.
Yaoyao turned a blind eye and kept her head buried, picking at the food in the bowl unhappily.
Seeing this, Jiang Quhan considerately moved several special dishes in front of Yaoyao, and whispered to her to eat slowly.
When Prince Sora saw this scene, his face was full of amazement, as if he was aware of the subtle relationship between them.
Look at Jiang Quhan's smile, almost overflowing with honey, just like a peacock who has successfully courted.
Prince Sola couldn't help but shiver, goosebumps appeared all over his body, and he cursed in disgust: "Nasty!"
Jiang Quhan immediately stopped his smile, and with a sharp warning in his eyes: "If you don't want to continue eating, get the hell back to the Post Office!"
Prince Sora snorted disdainfully and ignored it.
After they had had enough wine and food, they took their companions to visit the bustling night market in Kyoto. They didn't return home until the beginning of Haishi.
The three of them bid farewell to Prince Sola, and Yaoyao and Ning Ziqing took a carriage back to the Marquis' Mansion.
In the carriage, Yaoyao looked gloomy and leaned on the side of the carriage with her head lowered. Her former lively atmosphere was gone.
Ning Ziqing asked her with concern: "Yaoyao, tell me the truth, did Jiang Quhan... do something to you?"
Yaoyao looked up at Ning Ziqing, pursed her lips tightly, and hesitated to speak.
She was really embarrassed to tell her about Jiang Quhan's forced kiss on her.
Seeing Yaoyao's reaction, Ning Ziqing already understood.
She said solemnly: "Yaoyao, if you don't have that kind of thoughts towards him, I'll go and make it clear for you right now so that he doesn't pester you anymore, okay?"
Yaoyao was silent, remembering Jiang Quhan's previous warning, and was worried that it would make him angry and that it would affect Ning Ziqing's relationship with him, so she politely declined Ning Ziqing's kindness.
"Little beauty, you don't have to worry. This is a matter between him and me. I will handle it properly."
Ning Ziqing asked again: "Yaoyao, do you like him a little bit?"
Yaoyao's eyes flickered and her expression became confused.
After being silent for a while, she said shyly.
"I... don't know if this counts as liking him. When he kissed me... I didn't seem to be that disgusted."
"It's just." Yaoyao changed the topic: "His possessiveness is too strong. The way he clings to me makes me a little scared."
Jiang Quhan's strong and sinister appearance has been lingering in Yaoyao's mind, causing her to now have the idea of leaving Kyoto.
Ning Ziqing was slightly stunned, she didn't expect Jiang Quhan to be so passionate about Yaoyao.
"Did he threaten you?"
Ning Ziqing said worriedly.
Yaoyao nodded dejectedly, feeling powerless.
"You think it's still too late for me to run away now?"
Ning Ziqing shook his head helplessly: "According to his temperament, even if you run to the end of the world, he will do whatever it takes to catch you back."
Yaoyao looked melancholy and fell on Ning Ziqing, wanting to cry without tears.
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have provoked him. Why don't you ask me what he likes about me? I can't change it!"
Ning Ziqing sighed softly and sympathized with her extremely: "It's too late. Even if you become a bird now, I'm afraid you won't be able to fly and you won't be able to escape from his grasp."
After hearing this, Yaoyao regretted even more and wanted to slap herself twice.
This is probably the only time in her life that she has done something wrong!
At the same time, Ning Zijun walked out with heavy steps after interrogating a couple in the secret room of Su Mansion.
His face turned pale and he slowly fell down on the seat. Every word he just heard echoed in his mind, and a murderous aura gradually accumulated in his eyes.
Ahu, who was standing aside, felt the chill emanating from his whole body, as if he was in an ice cave and shuddered all over.
He secretly glanced at Ning Zijun and saw that although his face was calm, his cold eyes revealed determination and coldness, like two sharp swords, as if they would burst out with a chilling aura at any time.
Ahu knew that their general was in a state of extreme anger at the moment and it was not appropriate for him to say anything, so he wisely exited the study.
Soon, Su Yanqi also walked out of the secret room. He skillfully moved the mechanism and closed the secret room door tightly.
Then he walked to Ning Zijun and comforted him.
"Zijun, the more times like this, the more you must stay calm. We must collect all the evidence before we can hit the person who poisoned us with one blow. This way, you and Qingqing's reputation will not be affected!"
Ning Zijun clenched his fists, his eyes were red, and anger surged in his chest.
He gritted his teeth and said angrily: "I will never let her go easily! I will definitely recover the debts of my mother, second brother, and Qingqing from her one by one!"
He slammed his fist on the desk, trying to calm down his emotions that were about to lose control.
Su Yanqi warned him again: "You must remember not to act on impulse these days. When I find the final evidence, we will act as planned to lure the real culprit out of the hole and bring him to justice."
Ning Zijun nodded in agreement, stood up, said goodbye to him and returned home.
Ninghou Mansion Xinglu Garden.
Lin Wanqiao stood at the door of the main house waiting for Ning Zijun to return.
Several women and maids sent by the Song family were temporarily assigned to do chores in the front yard.
For this reason, Mrs. Chang, who was quite popular with the Song family, actually sneered at Lin Wanqiao, implying that she did not know how to repay her kindness and failed to live up to the Song family's intention to train her to manage the affairs of the government.
Gardenia was so angry that she almost started fighting with her.
Although Xiharu also disliked these bullying servants, considering the young lady's face, he could not openly treat them harshly, so he could only suppress his anger and planned to wait for his uncle to come back and make the decision for the young lady.
However, Ning Zijun hurried back home late at night, smelling of alcohol. After hearing this, he did not show much reaction. Instead, he asked Lin Wanqiao to let the maids enter the inner courtyard to serve him.
Lin Wanqiao's expression froze for a moment, and even though she felt uncomfortable, she had no choice but to respond silently.
Xichun and Zhixia did not expect Ning Zijun to have such an attitude. They felt aggrieved for the young lady and felt a little dissatisfied with Ning Zijun.
Ning Zijun didn't pay attention to the aggrieved expressions of the two maids, and went straight into the ear room to take a bath.
