"Master Xie is willing to help, but I can't watch my brother get killed."
Lin Jingfan looked at the big men and said, "I will help her pay back the one hundred taels of gold."
"I'm sorry, sir. Our boss said that we only want the girl, not the money."
"you."
The big man waved his hand, and the people behind him stepped forward and grabbed the woman in white.
[Why do I feel like they are here for this sister in white?] Shang Yangyang stared at the backs of those people curiously.
Shang Ningxia also noticed something was wrong: "Then send someone to check it out."
Lin Jingfan ordered people to investigate the matter of Dajiang Casino. Lin Jingfan ate absent-mindedly during the meal.
Until the secret guard came back to report the results of the investigation, everyone in the room was stunned by what the secret guard said.
【It's really a cockroach that can't be killed. 】
Shang Ningxia couldn't suppress his anger at this time.
Only Lin Jingfan had a look of "as expected". Shang Ningxia, who was standing by, saw Lin Jingfan like this. "You've already figured out that this is related to my brother?"
"It's just a guess. The person who could frame them must have a grudge against them. The only person they have a grudge against recently is Shang Huaishu."
Shang Ningxia pondered for a moment and looked up at Lin Jingfan. She mustered up the courage to ask, "Do you like that woman in white?"
Lin Jingfan, who had just taken a sip of water, almost spit it out, but luckily he managed to hold it back but he was choked. "Cough cough cough~"
After Lin Jingfan suppressed the discomfort in his throat, he gently patted Shang Ningxia's head. "Silly girl, what are you thinking? I have already given up on you. I am just worried that your eldest brother will do something again and implicate you."
Shang Ningxia, who had been hit on the head, completely ignored the words "sealed heart and no love". Her face turned red when she heard the latter part. It turned out that he was worried about her.
"Shang Ningxia, what's wrong with you?" Lin Jingfan's eyes were full of worry.
Shang Ningxia came back to her senses, took a deep breath to calm herself down, and said, "My brother?"
"He must be taught a lesson."
Shang Ningxia was full of curiosity: "Then how should we do it?"
【It would be nice if he didn't dare to do bad things anymore. 】
Lin Jingfan agreed with Shang Yangyang's thoughts. "Then we need to make a plan. Let's go."
Several little guys followed the two of them eagerly, thinking that they could also go and take a look, but they didn't expect that Lin Jingfan sent them all back home first.
Shang Yangyang sat there sulking when she got back home. [My bad uncle never took me with him when he went out to play.] "Hmph~"
Shang Yangyang sat on a small chair, holding his chin and looking at the sky outside.
There was a commotion in the capital at night. A carriage sped out of the capital. Someone in a courtyard shouted heartbreakingly, "Ghost, don't come over here. It's not me who harmed you."
"You committed suicide. It has nothing to do with me."
Then a hoarse female voice came: "If it weren't for you, how could I be bought by the gambling house?"
Shang Huaishu shouted in panic: "I was wrong, I was wrong."
"But I'm already dead. What's the point of you knowing you're wrong now?"
"I, I, I..." Shang Huaishu leaned back and it was obvious that his pants were wet.
At this time, Duke Shang ran in from outside and stood in front of Shang Huaishu. "I can agree to anything you want, but please let my son go."
"Dad, please save me." Shang Huaishu hugged his father's legs tightly, begging for his protection.
"I'm dead, what's the use of me?"
Duke Shang sighed. "If he must pay with his life, then let me take his place."
"Dad~" Shang Huaishu looked at Duke Shang with tears in his eyes, but he did not notice the disappointment that flashed in Duke Shang's eyes.
The female ghost cried out in pain: "It would be great if I had such a good father, wuwuwuwu~"
"Okay, since you have such a good father, I will let you go today, but I will keep an eye on you. If you do anything bad, I will take action."
"Okay, I will be a good person and do good things in the future."
"Hmm~" The ghost girl disappeared in an instant, but her voice floated in the distance. "I'll keep an eye on you."
After suppressing the anger in his eyes, Duke Shang looked down at his feet and saw that Shang Huaishu had fainted. He couldn't help but kick Shang Huaishu on the ground.
Li came closer outside the courtyard with tears in her eyes, which made Shang Guogong feel heartbroken. He went forward and hugged Li. "Qi'er, it's my fault. I neglected to discipline him before."
Li couldn't help but shed tears. She looked at Shang Huaishu on the ground with disappointment. "I didn't teach him well."
Duke Shang held Li tightly in his arms. "It's not your fault. He's already crooked. I don't expect anything from him anymore. I'll leave him some money after a hundred years to ensure he doesn't starve to death."
The two old men hugged each other tightly, and after a moment they called someone to carry Shang Huaishu into the room.
At this time, outside the capital, a carriage slowly stopped, and Lin Jingfan and Shang Ningxia got out of the carriage.
Lin Jingfan: "I will take you here. I hope you two have a safe journey the rest of the way."
Brother and sister Li Shan and Li Yue also got off the carriage and fell to their knees on the ground.
"Thank you, Master and Miss, for saving my life."
Shang Ningxia stepped forward and helped the two of them up. "I am the one who wants to apologize to you. If it weren't for my brother, you wouldn't be forced to leave the capital, and he almost killed you and your sister."
Li Yue said with tears in her eyes: "No, young lady, what your brother did has nothing to do with you, but we know that it was you and this young master who saved us, thank you."
Shang Ningxia took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears from Li Yue's face: "Let's not talk about those polite words anymore. I hope everything goes well for you in the future."
Li Yue whispered in Shang Ningxia's ear: "Well, I hope you and that young master can live happily forever."
Shang Ningxia looked back at Lin Jingfan and whispered, "You can see it all, but he is just a fool."
Li Yue smiled and said, "To be honest, if it weren't for this incident, I would have fallen in love with this young man, but I knew that the disparity between our statuses was too great to even think about, and he didn't have eyes for me.
I saw you all coming to save me today. He had you in his eyes, but he didn’t realize it himself.”
Shang Ningxia's eyes were full of surprise. "Really?"
"Girl, you will be happy."
"Thanks."
Li Yue nodded and clasped her hands. "See you again if we are destined to meet again."
Lin Jingfan and Shang Ningxia also clasped their fists and said, "See you again if we are destined to meet again."
Li Yue and Li Shan got on the carriage and stood there watching it leave.
Shang Ningxia was in a good mood. She turned around and smiled: "It's great that Li Yue has such a good brother like Li Shan."
Lin Jingfan: "I forgot who it was. When he found out that Li Yue was sold out by his brother, he got angry and started cursing."
Shang Ningxia stuck out her tongue: "Isn't that all a misunderstanding? Fortunately, we found out, otherwise we wouldn't have saved him."
"Yeah, luckily our Ningxia is smart."
"Lin Jingfan, I feel like you are laughing at me." Shang Ningxia turned away angrily and ignored Lin Jingfan.
