[Rebirth Sweet Romance + Long-Planned Love + Crazy Second Male Lead in Tragic Pursuit + Ninth Lord’s Rise to Power]
In her past life, Meng Mingxuan misunderstood the Ninth Lord—who deeply...
After Yan Yuting was asked to leave by the bodyguard, Meng Mingyou took Qin Changan's hand and stood up.
"I'm going back to my room to accompany Beibei."
"What about me?" Qin Changan gently pulled the edge of her skirt.
Meng Mingyou glanced at him and said, "You sleep in the study."
Qin Changan pursed his thin lips, looking a little aggrieved.
"If an unmarried couple sleeps together, they will be gossiped about," said Meng Mingyou.
Qin Changan stood up instantly and said, "They are not engaged couples. Tangtang has long been on the Qin family tree."
Meng Mingyou looked slightly strange.
She naturally knew that for a Kyoto family like the Qin family, a famous family tree was more reliable than a marriage certificate.
"What's Haitang's name?" she asked even though she knew the answer.
Qin Changan choked, "It's Meng Mingyou."
Meng Mingyou stared at him without blinking, feeling mixed and bitter.
She actually didn't hate him before she heard what Yan Yuting said tonight.
Without him, she would have died at sea.
"I am Mingxuan's only relative. She relied on me a lot in those two years. She misunderstood, just like you, that Xiaojiu and I were a couple, so she restrained her feelings for Xiaojiu." Meng Mingyou raised his hand and pinched Qin Changan's face very hard.
Qin Changan's skin was fair and soon left red marks, but he said nothing and let her ravage him.
"If you hadn't hidden me, she would have known that I wasn't dead, and this misunderstanding would have been resolved quickly." Meng Mingyou's voice was as light as if it floated from the sky, "She wouldn't have chosen Yin Ting, who is somewhat similar to Xiaojiu. She would have been very happy with Xiaojiu, childhood sweethearts, with no suspicion between them."
Qin Changan's heart was cut open by her with a very soft technique, and the pain surged in slowly.
"If what Yan Yuting dreamed of really happened, what can you give to compensate my sister's life?" Meng Mingyou moved closer to Qin Changan and looked at the suppressed pain in his eyes. "Qin San, you have to pray that what Yan Yuting said is not true, then you are still my savior. Even if you hid me for four years and made my sister sad for four years, it is not a crime punishable by death."
Qin Changan felt as if he was soaked in ice water, the chill was unbearable.
…
Nie Ziyang paid the price of a slap in the face in exchange for the truth he wanted.
Lu Jingqian was unaware of this and when he carried her away, she scratched and bit him all the way, leaving him covered in bruises.
But he seemed not to feel the pain. He carried Lu Jingqian to the front of his car, asked the driver to get out of the way, and then got into the back seat of the car with Lu Jingqian.
He carried Lu Jingqian, who was exhausted, and pressed her whole body into the spacious back seat. Lu Jingqian was unable to move and looked at him with eyes full of hatred.
Nie Ziyang pressed his forehead against hers, "Who is the man who bullied you?"
"It's just a small matter. I'm not hurt. Why are you asking?" Lu Jingqian coldly used his words to hit him.
Nie Ziyang's eyes were filled with a storm. He held her hands above her head and said word by word, "Who is he? Where did he touch you?"
"He touched everything he should and shouldn't touch." Lu Jingqian sneered, "He's still your cousin. If your mother hadn't handed me that glass of spiked wine, how could your weak cousin get close to me?"
Lu Jingqian was not a pushover and had practiced some self-defense techniques. Although she was a little exhausted from the attack, she still managed to protect herself. Only her shirt was torn and she received a slap in the face.
But she didn't want Nie Ziyang to have an easy time. No man could really tolerate his fiancée being touched by other men.
Why should an eight-year relationship end with her getting hurt?
He deserves some pain, too.
Nie Ziyang's heart was cut open by her words.
So, his mother and his cousin teamed up to bully her.
No wonder she wanted to break off her engagement with him.
She was so proud, how could she bear her future mother-in-law treating her like this.
"Don't ruin yourself to avenge me." Nie Ziyang looked at her, a drop of warmth emerged from his eyes and fell on her face.
Lu Jingqian was completely stunned.
He cried.
Nie Ziyang's tears gradually freed Lu Jingqian from her anger and hatred. After eight years of relationship, she still understood Nie Ziyang a little bit, and she understood everything all of a sudden.
"Are you trying to trick me?" Her voice was a little choked.
"What else can we do?" Nie Ziyang touched the corners of her reddening eyes with his fingertips. "Mrs. Nie said she didn't bully you. She said she just saw you shopping with other men and had a few arguments with you. You didn't even tell me about Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu, so I couldn't ask you, so I just provoked you."
Lu Jingqian lost all her strength at once.
She didn't want to be the one to say this, it was embarrassing.
Lu Jingqian didn't notice Nie Ziyang calling her "Mrs. Nie".
"I'm sorry, baby." Nie Ziyang kissed her face, "I made you sad just now."
Lu Jingqian didn't know what to say. She loved him, but she couldn't let go of the past.
She struggled slightly, but this time Nie Ziyang didn't trap her anymore.
Her hands were free, and she pushed him, "Let's be brother and sister again."
"Who wants to be your brother?"
“…”
Nie Ziyang stood up, fastened her back seat belt, took out his cell phone and called the driver to come and drive.
"Go back to the Lu family."
"Yes, Master."
Lu Jingqian looked at his profile which appeared dim under the ambient light in the car, but ultimately said nothing.
She turned her head to look at the night view outside the car window and let him calm down.
An hour later, the car stopped in front of the Lu family's door.
"Thank you for taking me back. I'll go in."
Lu Jingqian turned around, but her wrist was grabbed by Nie Ziyang.
"Wife, take me home." Nie Ziyang looked at her eagerly, as if he had returned to his previous state, with no sign that he had just cried.
“…”
Lu Jingqian fell for his trick, but she would not be soft-hearted.
"Nie Ziyang, let's part ways in peace, okay?" She wasn't so cold and heartless.
It's a pity that fate plays tricks on us.
"Take me home, or I'll jump into the river." Nie Ziyang looked at her, "I swear on the happiness of my life, I will jump, and I'll ask reporters to film me jumping. When the reporters ask me why I jumped into the river, I'll say that I had a car accident and I can't remember anything except my wife. But my wife didn't want me, so I had no place to stay and had to jump into the river."
“…”
What an explosive plot.
The key point is that he emphasized the word "happiness" to let her know how serious he is.
If she wasn't in a bad mood, Lu Jingqian thought she would burst out laughing on the spot.
"Nie Ziyang..."
"Why don't you come in when you get home? Didn't Zi Yang send us a message saying that he had something to discuss with us tonight?"
Mrs. Lu's voice sounded behind Lu Jingqian.
Lu Jingqian froze and looked at Nie Ziyang with a reproachful look. When did he send the message to her mother?
"Aunt Lu, I'm sorry for being so affectionate with Xixi just now. I'll go in and talk to you and Uncle Lu about marrying into the family." Nie Ziyang smiled and took Lu Jingqian's hand, then walked towards the Lu family's gate.
“…”
What to enter?
Lu Jingqian was frightened and turned to look at Nie Ziyang, forgetting even to struggle.
