What is the purpose of not letting her marry Sun Jinyao?
A familiar face flashed through Shangguan Wanning's mind.
"As for the second thing..." The man in black approached Shangguan Wanning step by step.
The sharp aura emanating from him made Shangguan Wanning feel numb all over and inexplicably anxious.
The man in black reached out and grabbed Shangguan Wanning, carried her on his shoulder, and jumped out of the window.
Shangguan Wanning was hanging upside down on the man in black. He used his lightness skills to run very fast, making her feel like her internal organs were churning.
She glanced casually and saw that the man in black seemed to have something hanging around his waist.
At this time, Shangguan Wanning was unable to move and could only try hard to look, but she could only see half of it.
Suddenly, the black-clad man's pace slowed down, and Shangguan Wanning heard a loud noise.
It turned out that someone had caught up with them, chopped off the trunk of a nearby tree with one palm, and then took the opportunity to confront the man in black with a palm strike.
The man in black was shocked and took several steps back. Perhaps he felt that he was no match for the newcomer, so he threw Shangguan Wanning out.
You're doomed now.
Before Shangguan Wanning could finish her thought, a pair of strong arms caught her in mid-air.
"Ning'er, how are you?"
Mu Jingrui untied Shangguan Wanning's acupoints.
Shangguan Wanning was gasping for breath. She subconsciously hid in Mu Jingrui's arms, and her panicked thoughts gradually calmed down.
"Are you okay?" Mu Jingrui held Shangguan Wanning in his arms and caressed her softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Shangguan Wanning leaned on Mu Jingrui's chest for a long time. She gently pushed Mu Jingrui away and took a few steps back.
Her attitude made Mu Jingrui's suppressed anger burst out completely.
Mu Jingrui refused to give in and pulled Shangguan Wanning into his arms.
"Do you also think that I arrested your father in order to prevent you from marrying Sun Jinyao?"
Shangguan Wanning struggled in Mu Jingrui's arms, but the more she struggled, the tighter Mu Jingrui held her.
"Let me go..."
"No."
"I never said that."
"But have you ever thought about it?"
Mu Jingrui couldn't accept Shangguan Wanning's suspicion of him.
"Mu Jingrui, are you being reasonable? I... um..."
Mu Jingrui didn't want to, nor did he have the courage to listen to Shangguan Wanning's words questioning him.
He used his lips to block Shangguan Wan Ning from saying anything else.
Shangguan Wanning beat Mu Jingrui's chest desperately.
Mu Jingrui picked her up and dodged into the bushes beside him. He placed Shangguan Wanning on the grass and then covered her.
Shangguan Wanning gradually melted in Mu Jingrui's hot embrace. Her mind was in a mess, with only the beautiful memories of the two of them together remaining.
Mu Jingrui could feel the change in Shangguan Wanning. He stopped his actions and stared into Shangguan Wanning's eyes.
"Ning'er, I don't want you to marry Sun Jinyao. I admit that I intercepted your father's request to see him because of this matter. But you have to believe me, I didn't hurt him. I will always remember your instructions to me."
"No matter what time it is, I will never hurt you and your family. This is my promise to you. You believe me, okay?"
Mu Jingrui's fingers gently stroked Shangguan Wanning's cheek.
Shangguan Wanning's eyes became hot and tears welled up in her eyes.
Mu Jingrui kissed her eyes gently, his body temperature rose rapidly, and all his forbearance had reached its limit.
He tried to untie Shangguan Wanning's belt, and she nervously grabbed his collar.
Her acquiescence made him even crazier.
Faint sounds of footsteps were heard in the front, and Mu Jingrui suddenly became anxious and angry. He looked down at Shangguan Wanning, who was in dishevel, and immediately took off his long gown to cover her, then jumped out of the bushes.
"Where is Ning'er?" Sun Jinyao asked sternly.
Mu Jingrui sneered contemptuously and did not answer.
His attitude angered Sun Jinyao.
Sun Jinyao drew out his sword and stabbed towards Mu Jingrui.
Mu Jingrui was also very angry with Sun Jinyao, and when he dodged to the side, he had already condensed his true energy in his palm.
"Stop." Shangguan Wanning came to her senses and felt annoyed and ashamed for what happened just now. "Stop fighting."
Sun Jinyao stopped and looked at Shangguan Wanning.
Her face was flushed, her eyes were shining, and she was still wearing Mu Jingrui's clothes.
At this moment, his mind was blank.
He felt that all his love and pampering for Shangguan Wanning was like a joke in front of Mu Jingrui.
He felt powerless and felt an unprecedented despair about everything.
"Brother Yao..."
Shangguan Wanning realized her mistake. She looked at Mu Jingrui with tears in her eyes. Finally, she walked to Sun Jinyao and gently pulled his sleeve.
"Please go back with me."
Sun Jinyao came back to his senses and looked at Shangguan Wanning, his heart broken.
He really wanted to walk away and stay away from her forever, but... whenever he thought about never seeing her again, he felt that his world would become dim and dark.
“Ning’er…”
Sun Jinyao couldn't bear to get angry at Shangguan Wanning, and he didn't want to embarrass or sadden her, so he had to swallow all the grievances himself.
He held Shangguan Wanning's hand and walked past Mu Jingrui. The two looked at each other with murderous intent.
Mu Jingrui watched Shangguan Wanning and Sun Jinyao go away. He thought about how Shangguan Wanning hugged him and responded to his kiss. He knew that the person she loved was still him.
Shangguan Wanning did not sleep all night, and the next morning the waiter brought her a letter left by Mu Jingrui.
"Ning'er, I received an urgent summons from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and must rush back to the capital. I will continue to track down your father's whereabouts. Don't worry too much and take care of yourself. I have left my confidants to protect you secretly. You can dispatch them at any time if you need anything."
Shangguan Wanning sighed deeply and burned the letter after reading it.
She carefully recalled the man in black she saw last night.
He said his father was in his hands.
The first thing was that he did not allow her to marry Sun Jinyao; the second thing, he did not have time to say.
Then, he should come to see her again.
The thing hanging around his waist... seems to be a token?
Shangguan Wanning was silent and thoughtful until Huo Gang knocked on the door and brought her back to her senses.
"Brother Huo, what's the matter?"
"Just now, Madam sent someone to say that the Emperor is urging you to come back. I'm afraid... we can't keep it secret anymore. Madam hopes you can go back as soon as possible."
"Brother Huo, go pack up. We will return to Beijing in an hour."
Shangguan Wan Ning knew that she could not find her father here. Since the other party had not yet achieved their goal, they must have clues to track down her father's whereabouts.
The three of them traveled day and night back to the capital, but unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived, Shangguan Wanning heard shocking news.
