Hearing this, Bai Suning's mind raced for a moment, and she pretended to be serious before asking, "Are you saying that this person is your enemy?"
"It's almost right." Nie Jing said calmly.
"But why?" Bai Suning really couldn't figure it out. She didn't quite understand how he got involved in those things. "And how did he know about your relationship with me?"
"This... is a bit complicated to explain. I'll tell you later."
"Wouldn't it be better for him to just kill me? Is it worth it to let me steal the Dragon Ball, risking our recognition?" Bai Suning continued to ask.
"That's why he overestimated you." Nie Jing, dressed in a black robe, looked extraordinary. His face looked very young, even though he was in his twenties or thirties. "He didn't know you were such a sincere person, nor did he know that you would confess everything after being caught."
Bai Suning: "..."
You have said it all for me, so I don’t need to defend myself.
As he thought about it, he asked worriedly, "What should I do next?"
"I'll have Su Liang prepare a fake dragon ball for you. You can take it back and give it to him when he arrives." Nie Jing's eyes darkened as he spoke of his plan. "We'll mark the fake dragon ball, so he'll know who it is once he takes it."
Bai Suning's heart skipped a beat, and she mustered up the courage to ask, "Can you give me a real one?"
It's easy to cheat the boss when he has no cultivation. If his cultivation is restored, he will be dead.
Nie Jing's face was stern again, as serious as it could be: "That thing is very important to your Uncle Su Liang. I'm giving it to you. Your Uncle Su Liang will really do it."
"Oh." Bai Su Ningyan nodded blankly.
If it really doesn't work, I can only take the fake one back.
If the boss finds out, just pretend that you just found out too, and then put on a show with him. Maybe then he won't pursue the matter.
Thinking this way, I feel that this is the only relatively reliable method now.
"There is no time to lose. Take the fake dragon ball and get out now." Nie Jing hammered his hammer and urged, hoping to find the person who threatened his niece as soon as possible.
He couldn't always follow her to protect her.
It didn't mean he couldn't send someone to protect her.
Bai Suning: “???”
Bai Suning was frightened by this sudden decision and asked nervously, "Now?"
"The sooner we catch him, the sooner uncle can rest assured." Nie Jing didn't want the danger to persist, and he didn't want his niece to live in fear. "You don't have to live in fear either."
Bai Suning was silent.
Could she refuse?
"Do you have any concerns?" Su Liang asked when he saw her hesitant expression.
Nie Jing also discovered it.
Bai Suning pursed her lips, feeling a little uneasy: "It's nothing, actually. I'm just worried that he'll find out it's fake and kill me on the spot."
"Don't worry, we will protect you." Nie Jing was very calm and serious about this matter. "As long as you hand that thing to him, we will know the moment he takes it and rush over as soon as possible."
Bai Suning is still timid.
Each of them is a rival to the big boss.
But now, no matter whether you are afraid or not, you must face this problem.
Early the next morning.
Bai Suning was sent down the mountain.
She walked back slowly, feeling extremely complicated.
"If you don't want to go back, then don't go back." The Husky offered advice, its physical form wagging its tail beside Bai Suning. "We have a year anyway, so it's okay to go back after a year."
Bai Suning also wanted this, and sighed: "Didn't you say before that his cultivation could recover at any time? If I really stayed out there for a year, he might catch me back at any time."
[The reason he sent me out to do this now is probably because he wants to act independently and find a way to recover his cultivation.]
Husky: “…”
You really think too much.
A few days later.
The man and the dog slowly returned to Yuxiao City.
When they saw her, the people around her all looked horrified and murmured to themselves.
"The female devil is back!"
"Hide your son quickly! Otherwise, the second young lady of the Bai family will come and snatch him away again!"
“Hurry, hurry, hurry!”
Bai Suning: “???”
Looking at the panicked look of the people on the street, she frowned.
Why are you saying she stole someone?
Although he was dissatisfied with the behavior of those people, he did not say much and returned to the City Lord's Mansion without saying a word.
The people in the City Lord's Mansion seemed to have heard someone say that she was back, and they immediately ran out to greet her. When they saw her, their faces were filled with excitement: "Second Miss, you are finally back!"
"Second Miss, did you have fun going out this time?"
"Second Miss..."
"Where's Jun Yunyan?" She asked bluntly, looking at them with a questioning look, "You haven't bullied him recently, have you?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
The expressions of the servants and maids changed obviously.
The maid immediately took her hand and walked inside, changing the subject: "Don't worry, everything is fine at the mansion, but Lao Shi still misses you from time to time."
"Second Miss, I heard that a handsome man has returned from the east of the city. Should we go and see him?"
"Second Miss, you have no idea how many handsome men have appeared in Yuxiao City during the time you were away!"
“That’s right!”
Bai Suning paused, pulled her hand away from theirs, and her eyes suddenly became cold: "Did something happen to Jun Yunyan?"
"How could anything happen to him?"
"That's right. He's such a strong man, it's impossible for him to be in trouble."
Looking at their evasive expressions, Bai Suning immediately felt that something was wrong, and she quickly went towards the room where Jun Yunyan was.
He kicked the door open: "Bang!"
"Jun Yunyan!"
"Jun Yunyan!"
She called out everywhere, but no one answered.
Feeling worried, she immediately used her spiritual power to detect his breath, but she checked the entire city lord's residence and there was no trace of him.
For some reason, her heart suddenly panicked.
"Second Miss..."
"Has something happened to Jun Yunyan?" Bai Suning's face turned cold, and she asked the question much more seriously than before.
The servants hesitated, but finally nodded: "Yes."
The maids also nodded: "Not only did the son-in-law get into trouble, but the master was also beaten and seriously injured."
Bai Suning's pupils shrank.
I felt a surge of panic.
"Just yesterday, a group of men in black suddenly broke into the City Lord's Mansion and forcibly took my son-in-law away." The maid bit her lip to explain, but still couldn't hide it from her mistress. "My master went to stop them, wanting to help you protect my son-in-law, but he was swatted away by those men. He's still lying in bed and hasn't woken up yet."
Bai Suning immediately ran towards her father's room, her head in a mess.
What on earth happened? Why did a man in black break in?
And Jun Yunyan, how could he be taken away, and who are those people who took him away?
