Died for no reason at all.
Ning Hong was suddenly bound to a portable system that made him travel through world after world, saving those innocent cannon fodders who met tragic ends.
"What are you doing?" Ning Yunxiao's eyelids twitched when he saw Ning Hong throw the two people in front of him. His eyelids had been twitching since early morning. Sure enough, something had happened.
Especially when he saw that one of them was Wen Zhongtian, he looked dazed and hurriedly stepped forward to untie the ropes binding Wen Zhongtian.
"Nephew Zhongtian? It's you? Hongze, why are you tied up?"
Ning Yunxiao was somewhat bewildered. What exactly had happened? Why was Wen Zhongtian brought to him by his own son, who had tied him up?
Wen Zhongtian? How did he end up tied up?
If it were his son who was tied up, perhaps he wouldn't be so surprised. "What did you do to him?" Did you drug him?
“What did I do to him? Why don’t you ask him what he did to me?” Ning Hong laughed angrily. “He’s a grown man who broke into my estate in the middle of the night, trying to take advantage of Feng’er. I’ve already let him off easy by treating him like this.”
"What? Zhongtian broke into Feng'er's room in the middle of the night?" Ning Yunxiao looked at Wen Zhongtian in astonishment. Seeing that Wen Zhongtian had his head down and refused to speak, he looked at Feng'er again, "What about Feng'er's innocence?"
"Stop, don't overthink it. He wanted to do it, but he couldn't succeed." If he had succeeded, Wen Zhongtian would be a corpse right now.
"Zhongtian, why are you doing this?"
Ning Yunxiao also felt somewhat uneasy.
He had always doted on his daughter Feng'er, and now that he saw someone trying to ruin her, even if that person was Wen Zhongtian, whom he liked, he felt uneasy.
What kind of thing is this?
Wen Zhongtian is a well-known upright junior in the martial arts world. How could he possibly try to break into a woman's boudoir at night? Doesn't he know what will happen to this woman's reputation if such a thing gets out?
"If you truly wish to marry me, why did you break into Feng'er's room at night?"
"This? Because Feng'er refuses to marry a junior." Wen Zhongtian raised his head, looking at Ning Feng'er with longing in his eyes, and then looked at Ning Yunxiao.
"I don't want to marry you," Ning Feng'er snorted and turned her head away.
“Miss Feng’er has always been unwilling to marry me.” Wen Zhongtian took two steps forward. “Senior Ning, I truly love Miss Feng’er. I beg you to marry her to me. I swear I will treat her well for the rest of my life.”
“Master, I think Zhongtian is a good young man. If Feng’er marries him, she will have a home. When we get old, Zhongtian will take care of Feng’er, and we won’t have to worry about her anymore.”
At some point, Madam Ning walked in through the door, followed by Ning Chengze.
Seeing Wen Zhongtian and the middle-aged man tied up and thrown on the ground, Ning Chengze's eyes flickered slightly, and he silently lowered his head.
He had a very respectful demeanor.
“Father, Mother is absolutely right. You know Zhongtian’s character. If Feng’er marries him, she will surely enjoy a life of happiness.”
Even his mother was trying to persuade his father.
Ning Cheng pondered for a moment, then spoke up as well.
"Feng'er, what do you think? You know Zhongtian's character. If he didn't like you so much, why would he do such a thing?"
"In short, I won't marry him." Ning Feng'er shook her head. "I don't like Wen Zhongtian. My elder brother said that a forced marriage will not bring happiness."
"How do you know you won't be happy? Zhongtian is such a good person, if you don't want to marry him, then who do you want to marry?"
Madam Ning poked Ning Feng'er's forehead in exasperation.
"Feng'er, listen to me, I really mean it..."
"You like Feng'er, and then you liked her so much that you slept with my ex-fiancée and she got pregnant?"
"You're talking nonsense. How could I be involved with your ex-fiancée? I don't even know her."
"What, you met her in bed, but you've already forgotten her now that you're out of bed? Jiang Hanyi is still pregnant with your child. Don't you want to go see her?"
Jiang Hanyi?
Upon hearing the name Jiang Hanyi, Wen Zhongtian's eyes widened suddenly. How could Ning Hong know about his relationship with Jiang Hanyi?
"Brother, even if you don't like Zhong Tian, you shouldn't wrong him like this. How could he have any connection with Jiang Hanyi?"
Ning Cheng's expression changed slightly.
If Wen Zhongtian and Jiang Hanyi are a couple, then what does he amount to in the past few days?
He was trying so hard to please Jiang Hanyi, but Jiang Hanyi was just watching him make a fool of himself?
A few days ago, he fell in love with Jiang Hanyi at first sight by the lake.
Jiang Hanyi has extremely beautiful features and is the young master of Xiaoyao Palace, making her the perfect match for him.
In particular, Jiang Hanyi's personality was different from that of ordinary girls. Even if he flirted with the maids and went out to seek pleasure, Jiang Hanyi didn't care.
He had thought that Jiang Hanyi was broad-minded, which was why she didn't care about these maids and servants. But it turned out that this was not the case at all; it was simply because she didn't love him at all.
I don't love him, so I don't care about his every move.
It's utterly ironic.
"Is Jiang Hanyi really pregnant with your child?"
Ning Chengze pulled Wen Zhongtian up, his eyes bloodshot and his face full of anger.
If they really are a couple, what does it mean for him to interfere in their relationship?
Could it be that Jiang Hanyi wants to find a cheap father for the child in her womb?
Wen Zhongtian fell silent.
He didn't know what to say. The child was indeed his.
Wen Zhongtian's silence explained a great deal. Ning Chengze was furious and threw a punch.
"They say you shouldn't mess with your friend's wife, yet you slept with my woman?"
"Chengze, calm down. What do you mean by 'your woman'? I knew Hanyi first, and we've been together for the past two years."
"Then why did you come to ask for my Feng'er's hand in marriage?" Ning Yunxiao's face darkened upon hearing Wen Zhongtian's words.
If it weren't for all the things that happened back then, given his appreciation for Wen Zhongtian and Cheng Ze's favoritism, he would definitely have married Feng'er to him.
Thank goodness she didn't get married. If she had, what would have become of Feng'er?
Then there's Jiang Hanyi. Two years ago, before she had even broken off her engagement with Hong Ze, she was already having an affair with another man. Just thinking about it is disgusting.
It's truly pitiful for the Palace Master of Xiaoyao Palace. Having such an heir is a severe blow to their Xiaoyao Palace.
"You bastard!" Ning Chengze lunged at him again.
In the past, Ning Chengze would have been no match for Wen Zhongtian, but today, Wen Zhongtian was still recovering from his injuries and was not very agile, so he managed to fight Ning Chengze to a draw.
"Don't talk about me. I consider you a brother. You suggested that I break into Brother Ning's manor at night, but then you sent people to hunt me down and kill me on Brother Ning's manor. You are so cruel."
When should I send someone to kill you?
“This person is kneeling right here, and you’re still trying to deny it.”
Wen Zhongtian pointed at the middle-aged man, a hint of gloom appearing on his face.
