"Second brother, what's wrong with you?"

Ning Hong originally just wanted to inquire about the Ning family in the teahouse, but she didn't expect to hear such things.

Qingxin Nunnery is actually that kind of place.

What exactly are the Ning family doing?

He actually sent his sister to that kind of place.

He was thinking of going back to find out what was going on. If the Ning family really had treated his sister this way, he would definitely go to their door and make a scene to get justice for Mu Rong.

Suddenly, a fan was placed in front of him.

"Who are you?"

"Second Brother, do you really not recognize me?"

Ning Hongxuan put the fan away.

"I don't recognize her." Ning Hong shook her head, looking left and right. "I still don't recognize her."

"Are you really stupid?"

"Are you stupid? I'm injured and have amnesia."

"You say that quite fluently."

"Really lost his memory?" Ning Hongxuan raised an eyebrow.

What benefit would I get from lying to you?

"Well, it won't do any good, but it might improve my mood," Ning Hongxuan said matter-of-factly.

"That's you, isn't it? You have such a twisted sense of humor."

If one wasn't used to lying, how could they utter such words so easily?

"Second brother, you really know me well. You've seen right through me?"

"——"

Are you my cousin?

"Um?"

Ning Hongxuan nodded. "He's your brother, after all."

"The Ning family?"

"Yes, second brother, you live here now—hey, why did you hit me?"

Ning Hongxuan originally wanted to coax Ning Hongze and deceive his brotherhood, but after receiving a positive answer, Ning Hongze destroyed him with a single whip.

A green whip?

What a strange color!

Ning Hongxuan barely dodged the attack, waving his fan to block Ning Hongze's attack.

Not a whip?

Are these vines?

His older brother was so poor that he had to use vines as whips.

"Why did you hit me? I didn't do anything to you."

“We’ve offended them.” Ning Hong sneered. “Anyone with the surname Ning has offended us.”

How dare they send his sister to a place like that? Let's start by getting an appetizer from that Ning guy. Once he finds out the truth, none of them will escape.

"Even if I'm going to die, I should at least know why."

Ning Hongxuan twirled her fan rapidly. "Could it be because of the Qingxin Nunnery?"

"It seems you know very well."

Ning Hongze flicked her vine, and with a slap, it bypassed the fan and struck Ning Hongxuan's face.

Ning Hongxuan's face immediately turned red.

His skin was already delicate and fair, so this whip mark looked particularly noticeable.

“We didn’t know Qingxin Nunnery was that kind of place. If we had known, I would never have let her go to such a place.”

Ning Hongxuan said with a wronged expression.

My mind was filled with a multitude of complex emotions, tinged with deep doubt.

Is this person really Ning Hongze?

His useless second brother?

That's impossible!

This person's martial arts skills are superb, even surpassing his own. If Ning Hongze had such formidable strength back then, how could the Ning family have given up on him?

"Second brother, we used to be so close, how can you treat me like this now?"

"Are we close?"

Did the original owner of this body have a good relationship with this person?

Ning Hong frowned. Something was wrong. In that painting, the person seemed to be standing on the opposite side of him.

Ning Hong closed her eyes and retrieved the only painting that remained in her mind.

Yes, everyone was on his side. He was all alone.

Only a wisp of black mist lingered.

The original owner of this body has become possessed by a demon.

"Second brother, we do have a good relationship."

Seeing that Ning Hongze seemed to be trying hard to remember, Ning Hongxuan took a step forward and got closer to Ning Hongze. "You also said that you would marry Mu Rong to me and that I should take good care of Mu Rong."

"What? You're marrying Mu Rong to you? You beast, you won't even spare your cousin?"

Ning Hong's eyes widened, and she lashed out with the whip again.

Ning Hongxuan was caught off guard by Ning Hongze's sudden attack and was struck squarely on the other side of his face by the whip. The blow somehow made his face symmetrical.

“Second brother, our surname is Ning, and Mu Rong’s surname is Mu. What kind of cousin is she? Mu Rong has never been recorded in our family tree. It’s true that you are my brother and sister, but she has no blood relation with me at all.” Ning Hongxuan said, covering his cheeks with extreme grievance.

His eyes lowered slightly, concealing the fleeting anger that crossed his mind. He never expected that he, Ning Hongxuan, the respected third young master of the Ning family in Diancheng, would be slapped twice.

"——"

That makes sense. Mu Rong was brought back by her mother, and she didn't really have much of a connection with the Ning family.

However, his intuition told him that this person was lying to him. Although everyone said that the original owner didn't like this younger sister very much, when he saw Mu Rong before, his chest heaved greatly, and his emotions were particularly bitter.

He probably likes his younger sister.

They just didn't know how to get along, and because of their pride, their relationship ended up like this.

If that's the case, Ning Hongxuan is his cousin. No matter what, he would never entrust his sister to his cousin. It just seems very strange.

"Second brother, don't you believe me?" Ning Hongxuan asked with a rather comical expression.

"I really don't believe it." It feels too strange.
