"Let me go..."
Shangguan Wanning tried hard to shake off Sun Jinyao's hand.
“Ning’er…”
Mu Jingrui tried hard to pull Shangguan Wanning back from Sun Jinyao, but he only took a few steps before staggering and falling to the ground.
His eyes were bloodshot, and an unprecedented sense of frustration spread throughout his body.
For him to watch Shangguan Wanning being forced into marriage by Sun Jinyao was more cruel than cutting him into pieces.
Mu Jingrui suddenly felt murderous and concentrated all his energy in his palm, wanting to die together with Sun Jinyao.
“Sun Jinyao, if you force me again, even if you get me, it will only be a corpse.”
Shangguan Wanning's resentful and determined tone made Sun Jinyao see an unprecedented determination.
He knew Shangguan Wanning, she could do what she said.
In desperation, he had to let go of Shangguan Wanning's hand.
"Ning'er, you should know that I love you sincerely. As long as you are willing to abide by our previous engagement and marry me, we can start over. According to our previous arrangement, we will stay away from the capital, a place of trouble, and travel around the world to live a life of leisure and ease."
Sun Jinyao stared at Shangguan Wanning, his eyes still full of affection.
Shangguan Wanning's heart fell to the bottom.
At this point, she had nothing to say. She knew very well that no matter what she said, it would not change Sun Jinyao's current determination.
"Brother Yao, I am sorry for you. You can ask me to marry you, but... you have to give me the antidote."
Sun Jinyao suddenly felt cold all over, and his body trembled slightly with anger.
"Shangguan Wanning, I truly love you and want to marry you and stay with you forever; but you treat our marriage as a transaction?"
Shangguan Wanning lowered her head in shame, but at this point, what she wanted to do most was to save Mu Jingrui's life.
"Whatever you say, it is. Give me the antidote and I will marry you."
"Okay!" Sun Jinyao walked up to Mu Jingrui, looked down at him, and raised a mocking smile. "Mu Jingrui, the antidote... do you want it?"
Mu Jingrui raised his eyes and looked at Sun Jinyao. His cold gaze showed his attitude.
"I want you dead!"
"Jing Rui!"
"If I have to use you in exchange for my life, I would rather die."
Mu Jingrui looked at Shangguan Wanning, his tone as hard as iron.
"Ning'er, you heard it. It's not that I don't give it to him, it's that he doesn't want it."
Shangguan Wanning's tears fell quietly. "Jingrui, please stop being so stubborn, okay? You don't understand, this kind of poison... I really can't help it... I don't want you to die."
Mu Jingrui felt heartbroken when he saw Shangguan Wanning crying.
He took a deep breath and tried to stand up, but still failed.
He could only stare at Shangguan Wan Ning and said gently: "Ning'er, don't be sad... If I am destined to die, then... even if you and I were just husband and wife for one night, I would be satisfied. My only regret is that I didn't give you the title of Madam Mu..."
Sun Jinyao's face changed suddenly.
He was furious, grabbed Shangguan Wanning's wrist, and asked viciously: "Is what he said... true? You... you..."
"Yes." Shangguan Wanning murmured softly, "I am already Mu Jingrui's...ah!"
Before Shangguan Wanning could finish her words, Sun Jinyao raised his hand and slapped her in the face, his eyes were so red that it seemed like blood could drip out.
"Ning'er." Mu Jingrui was angry and anxious, "Sun Jinyao, come at me if you have the guts."
Sun Jinyao lost his mind whenever he thought about the fact that Shangguan Wanning's purity had been defiled by Mu Jingrui.
He rushed to Mu Jingrui, condensed his true energy in his palm, and struck towards Mu Jingrui's forehead.
"don't want!"
Shangguan Wan Ning let out a heart-wrenching roar, and then a flash of sword light appeared, forcing Sun Jinyao to retreat.
Sun Jinyao staggered back two steps, and the opponent took advantage of the situation and shot several silver needles at him.
He dodged to the side and saw from the corner of his eye a woman pulling up Mu Jingrui, quickly jumping onto the roof and disappearing from sight.
How could Sun Jinyao give up? Just as he was about to chase her, Shangguan Wanning rushed over and hugged his legs.
He subconsciously raised his hand and wanted to slap her, but at the last moment, he finally held back.
Sun Jinyao squatted down and grabbed Shangguan Wanning's chin.
"Shangguan Wanning, you are the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and yet you did such a shameless thing..."
Shangguan Wanning was speechless and had to close her eyes to avoid Sun Jinyao's gaze.
"Look at me...Open your eyes and look at me..."
Sun Jinyao was almost going crazy, and he forced Shangguan Wanning to open her eyes.
"Tell me, the person you love is me...Speak now!"
Shangguan Wanning said nothing, but just glared at Sun Jinyao.
Such a look made Sun Jinyao so distressed that he almost couldn't breathe.
He knew that from this moment on, all the hardships and beautiful memories shared between him and her would never be the same again.
Sun Jinyao felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. Tears slowly fell from his eyes. He roared and slapped Shangguan Wanning in the face.
Blood flowed from the corner of Shangguan Wanning's mouth, and Sun Jinyao was stunned.
He looked at his hands and immediately came to his senses.
"Ning'er... Ning'er, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Sun Jinyao knelt on the ground and hugged Shangguan Wanning, apologizing repeatedly, "Ning'er, please forgive me..."
Shangguan Wanning's mind was blank, she let Sun Jinyao hold her, motionless.
She saw clearly that it was the secret guard Chu Xiaolian who rescued Mu Jingrui just now.
But what should we do about the poison in Mu Jingrui?
"Ning'er, let's continue with the wedding ceremony."
Sun Jinyao carefully pulled Shangguan Wanning out of his arms and gently stroked her slightly swollen cheek.
"I... I can pretend that what happened between you and Mu Jingrui never happened... As long as you stay with me wholeheartedly in the future, okay?"
Shangguan Wanning looked at Sun Jinyao and snorted.
"Can you really... pretend that nothing happened?"
Sun Jinyao was stunned for a moment, then nodded in confusion.
"You can marry me if you want, but I have a condition." Shangguan Wanning reached out and gently stroked Sun Jinyao's cheek, "We can't have no witnesses. Otherwise, it will be an affair without a matchmaker."
"I know you won't let me go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see my parents, but it doesn't matter... I just hope that Master can watch us get married. This is also his wish."
Shangguan Wanning asked to meet Lu Xiangzi at this time. How could Sun Jinyao not understand what was really in her mind?
"Okay, I'll do as you wish."
Sun Jinyao touched Shangguan Wanning lightly, and Shangguan Wanning fell into a deep sleep.
"Ning'er, you will never know how much I love you." Sun Jinyao picked up Shangguan Wanning and used his lightness skills to leave the place.
