Chapter 49 - Default
Chapter 49 - Default
Duan Yunhong finally got Ning Fei's location mark. With this, he can know which world Ning Fei is in and chase after him.
Ning Fei agreed in a daze, and couldn't tell whether he was being tortured or was blinded by lust. Anyway, after he woke up, when Duan Yunhong asked him meaningfully, "You are not going to go back on your word and refuse to pay your debt, are you?" Ning Fei still gave him the mark as agreed.
"I'm warning you—" Ning Fei certainly didn't just give it to me and let it go. He also reminded me coldly, "If you dare to use this to mess with me, you will know how many ways I have to torture people."
Duan Yunhong didn't make any verbal promises to him, he just said: "I can give you one too."
What I mean is that we are equals. If I mess with you, you can wait for revenge.
Ning Fei said, "I don't want it."
Duan Yunhong pinched his fingers, suppressing the urge to force himself on and ask "why".
He changed the subject and asked casually, "No one else has your position? Really?"
Ning Fei replied: "...Really."
"You seem a little hesitant." Duan Yunhong said calmly, "Even if you say you have it, I won't pursue who else has it."
"I just recalled it to confirm it. Even if it was there before, my mark has been updated and the previous one is invalid." Ning Fei didn't want to talk about this detail and quickly changed the subject again, "Tsk, I'll give you the mark. You have to help me pass it next time we meet."
"I just said to give it to you, not to help you."
"Stop lying. I remember you said you wanted me to 'pass the test directly'. Doesn't 'directly' mean that I can just sit back and reap the benefits? I just asked you to help me, which is already very kind of you." Ning Fei said, "You don't want to deny it, do you?"
"...I understand. I'll help you, okay?" Duan Yunhong couldn't win the argument with Ning Fei again. "But I will use my own method. Don't try to command me."
Ning Fei sneered: "You think I'm like you, wanting to be a leader wherever I go."
Duan Yunhong simply shut up.
Ning Fei did not pursue the victory. He remembered that since Duan Yunhong was going to follow him, he might as well take advantage of him, so he asked: "You bandits all entered the world with your own bodies, right? Then can you bring something with you?"
Duan Yunhong was now very wary of him: "What do you want to bring?"
"Props for the evening." Ning Fei replied calmly, "What if it's this backward era again? If you act like a mad dog again, I'll have to bear the brunt of it. Just bring some in case of emergency."
Duan Yunhong was silent.
Ning Fei: "Why, you don't even want to take this with you?"
Duan Yunhong: "I just want to know... how much should I bring for a world?"
Ning Fei: “…you figure it out yourself!”
***
The seventh day arrived quickly.
Ning Fei wore the last set of new clothes, which was also the most complicated and exquisitely made one. Clothes make the man. His face, which was already more handsome than that of ordinary people, was made even more outstanding and eye-catching, and even had a bit of gorgeousness. It seemed that the butler who came to deliver the clothes didn't know what to say, and he uttered an ambiguous sentence, "You are a scholar, how can...ah...", which made Ning Fei laugh.
Duan Yunhong came back early in the afternoon. When he saw Ning Fei's new look, before he had time to comment, he heard him retelling the housekeeper's reaction. Facing this vague statement, Duan Yunhong immediately guessed what the housekeeper meant: "He is saying how a scholar like you could fall to the point of using your beauty to please others?"
"Probably." Ning Fei was indifferent to such comments. "It's just that he didn't say it. If he dared to say it, I would say that it was your general who tied me back, and it wasn't me who chose this path."
Duan Yunhong: "The way he looked at me just now, he almost cursed me 'Bai Ri Xuan Y'."
Ning Fei laughed out loud.
"Forget it, General Duan. It's the last day. Once I leave tomorrow, who will remember me? At most, they will see extra clothes and vaguely remember that there was someone in your yard before." Ning Fei finished laughing, then stood up and checked the jar that Duan Yunhong brought in. "Where did you get this good wine from?"
"The eldest prince gave it to me." Duan Yunhong replied, "I told him a joke and then asked him for it."
"General Duan, President Duan, you have great skills." Ning Fei praised him casually, "What's the joke? Can I hear it?"
Duan Yunhong said calmly, "Because Dong Lingyan only gave bracelets to the daughter of the prime minister, Lan Li lost her temper and ran out to have fun, and finally got together with the guards that the eldest prince sent to her side."
Ning Fei: “…Puff!”
This time he laughed even harder, and fell back on the chair laughing for a long time before asking, "What happened next? How did Dong Lingyan react? How did Lan Li react?"
"Dong Lingyan was furious. Lan Li's temper became even stronger after he accused her. She has now announced that she wants to remarry the guard." Duan Yunhong replied calmly, "The Haminke tribe is relatively open about relationships between men and women. Lan Li is the daughter of the chief elder. It's normal for her to have had relationships with different men and want to marry someone else."
Ning Fei was amazed: "How can it be so humorous! Every day, it's like watching a comedy..."
At this point, Ning Fei suddenly glanced at Duan Yunhong, raised his eyebrows and said, "Wait a minute, it wasn't you who instigated this, was it?"
Duan Yunhong: "The bracelet was not given by me."
"I gave it to you," Ning Fei said, "but I only gave you a fuse. It exploded so quickly and so violently. Do you dare to say that you didn't do it?"
Duan Yunhong looked indifferent and did not answer, but Ning Fei saw some hint of pride in his eyes, so he knew that he must be the one behind it again.
Duan Yunhong had admitted before that he had placed people around Dong Lingyan and the Prime Minister's daughter. The guards that the eldest prince sent to Lan Li in the name of safety might also have some relationship with Duan Yunhong. In this way, surveillance, provocation, tracking, and taking advantage of opportunities are simply a one-stop service.
Ning Fei propped his chin up on the table and chuckled, "General Duan, you are not helping me speed up, are you? Let me see the result of throwing out the bait before I leave?"
"... You're overthinking it." Duan Yunhong replied calmly, "It's still not safe to have two women in Dong Lingyan's hands. If Lan Li can really change her husband - especially to the eldest prince's man - she will be easier to control."
"Why, did the comeback method I mentioned earlier still make you wary?" Ning Fei looked at him and raised his eyebrows slightly, "But Chonglin's brain is definitely not capable of coming up with such a method, so you can rest assured."
"I know he's stupid," Duan Yunhong replied, "It has nothing to do with the method I chose."
"Ha, you are worthy of me..." Ning Fei felt more and more that this opponent should not be underestimated. It’s okay next time, but from the next time onwards, you’ll be causing yourself big trouble.
Of course, Ning Fei wouldn't be afraid. On the contrary, the 1v1 challenge game has not been so exciting for a long time.
Ning Fei plans to figure out Duan Yunhong's style and rhythm in three worlds: the supermodel world, this world, and the next world. This man looks like a veteran "lucky bandit" and must have his own set of habits in doing things. As long as you give him a fatal blow at a critical moment to disrupt his rhythm, the possibility of him taking the opportunity to escape will be greatly increased.
From the current perspective, Duan Yunhong likes to choose high-ranking figures who may not be very close to the time traveler, but are definitely people who can easily influence the time traveler. Moreover, Duan Yunhong is usually in a favorable situation. When he gets serious, he will use all available strength to save the hapless time travelers who are forced into bad luck. Ning Fei wants the time traveler to suffer, so he has to be on guard against Duan Yunhong's troubles...
Bang!
While Ning Fei was daydreaming, Duan Yunhong opened the jar of wine with his own hands. The lid was opened and the aroma of wine overflowed, immediately diverting Ning Fei's attention. He stood up and leaned over to look and smell. "Apart from anything else, Duan Yunhong, you have really good taste in wine. Among all the people I know, you are in the top tier!"
Duan Yunhong put the lid back on: "Let's make three rules first."
Ning Fei looked up at him with a bit of dissatisfaction: "What's wrong again?"
"I know you can drink a lot, but this stuff has a very strong aftereffect." Duan Yunhong said, "If you drink until you pass out, you are not allowed to leave tomorrow."
Ning Fei's mind raced for a moment: "Just this jar of wine in exchange for a good night's enjoyment? It doesn't count if I pass out? You don't want to take any loss, Duan Yunhong!"
Duan Yunhong didn't respond, but continued, "Also, no matter when you leave, you must tell me."
"Why, are you still sending me off?" Ning Fei made a joke first, then remembered something and smiled meaningfully, "Mr. Duan, after I left last time, you wouldn't be looking for me everywhere, right?"
Duan Yunhong: "...I guessed it when I turned on my phone and didn't find your name."
"Oh, well, it seems you have had a lot of experience fighting with people from other administrations before." Ning Fei didn't know that he was being stubborn again this time, so he just shrugged and said, "Okay, what about Chapter 3?"
Duan Yunhong wanted to say "that's it", but changed his mind and added: "If you don't go back, I will reset your location marker."
Ning Fei: ...How do you know I have had this thought?
But of course Ning Fei would not admit this, he just nodded calmly: "I have already given it, I won't deny it."
Duan Yunhong then opened the lid of the wine jar: "Remember what you said."
***
The next day, Duan Yunhong interrupted the morning exercises, morning court sessions, and morning duties in the military camp. The housekeeper muttered in private that this was definitely caused by some "Master Ning" and he would have to persuade the general later.
As a result, the housekeeper forgot about it in the afternoon.
Ning Fei left.
The courtyard where he had lived was cleaned up naturally, and the servants and guards who followed him returned to their original posts. Duan Yunhong recovered to the way he was a week ago, but it seemed that he had not fully recovered. The housekeeper found that he began to be lazy about government affairs, became less proactive in everything, and no longer paid close attention to the movements of the Second Prince. But the housekeeper tried to ask for a long time but still couldn't get to the bottom of it. He vaguely remembered that his master seemed to like handsome men, but when he asked Duan Yunhong to have some fun, Duan Yunhong refused.
Until Chonglin came to the door again.
When Chonglin visited the general's mansion this time, as soon as he walked into the yard, he saw Duan Yunhong burning something with his own hands. Looking closely, it seems to be a silk and satin dress of good quality. Chong Lin couldn't help but ask, "What are you burning?"
Duan Yunhong glanced at him and responded coldly: "It has nothing to do with you."
"Oh." Chong Lin didn't care too much and changed the subject, "Did Ning Fei leave? I asked people to look for him at your place, but no one remembered who he was. He left without telling me. You didn't tell him about our cooperation, did you?"
Duan Yunhong turned back and looked at the fire: "What is there to say?"
"That's good." Chong Lin showed a gloating expression, "He actually gave up the mission and ran away, and he left in just one week. Did he suffer a great loss at your hands?"
Duan Yunhong didn't even bother to reply this time.
Chong Lin could sense that the other party didn't care about him, so he got to the point: "Since you've already met him and you've completely retaliated against him, shouldn't you give me the 'full payment'?"
Duan Yunhong glanced at him: "What do you mean by 'full payment'?"
"Dong Lingyan's luck." Chong Lin said confidently, "Although my mission is not yet completely completed, I have done what I promised you. According to the agreement, you have to give me the remaining 2/3 of the luck, so you should advance me the same amount of luck first. Anyway, the mission will definitely fail later, so you can take Dong Lingyan's luck after the bad debt is paid."
Duan Yunhong sneered: "What agreement? I don't remember that we had an agreement."
"How could you not remember? You have already paid 1/3 of your luck in advance..." Chong Lin retorted subconsciously at first, but looking at Duan Yunhong's playful expression, he gradually reacted.
"You want to default on your debt?!"
