"You don't deserve to know."
The man in black leaned back in his chair leisurely, his black robe loosely covering his tall body. His face was hidden by a silver mask, revealing lips that were redder than blood.
Even though the man in black did not show his face, the aura around him was like a dense woven net that enveloped Wei Jing. She wanted to break free, but she couldn't help but tremble from the bottom of her heart.
After a long while, Wei Jing finally calmed down and asked, "You visited the Wei Mansion at night. Were you seeking wealth or sex?"
The man in black curled his lips with interest, narrowed his eyes and said sarcastically: "I am not short of money, but as for sex, do you have it?"
As he spoke, the man in black seemed to float up from the chair. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Wei Jing, grabbed her neck, and said in a cold tone, "With your tattered body?"
"Let go, let me go..."
Wei Jing struggled desperately and fell to the ground in a mess. Her throat was strangled, her face had turned purple, and her eyes were empty and numb, without any life.
There was dead silence in the room.
After a while, before Wei Jing was about to faint, the man in black finally let go.
“Ahem!”
Wei Jing breathed greedily, hiding in the corner, with fear in her eyes.
She had been captured by a barbarian before, and as long as she satisfied his demands, Wei Jing did not suffer any injustice except for her chastity being at risk.
But the man in black in front of him was like a devil from hell, far more terrifying than a barbarian!
Wei Jing didn't dare to act rashly, fearing that she would anger the man in black again, so she lowered her brows calmly.
After half a minute, the man in black finally stood up and walked to the window, saying with a hint of certainty: "You have good qualifications."
It is rare to be ruthless and know the times.
It only needs a little training to be of great use.
"Miss Wei, do you have any requests in your heart? As long as you surrender to me, I can fulfill your small request."
The man in black picked a night-blooming cereus from the windowsill, played with it in his hands, and spoke with a hint of laziness.
Wei Jing looked hesitant and asked, "Any request is fine?"
The man in black paused and said, "As long as you dare to ask."
"I want to marry Xie Zhao. Xie Zhao must belong to me. Jiang Yuzhu and the Jiang family, all the Jiang family's lackeys, die!"
Wei Jing roared with red eyes. Ever since the birthday banquet at the Wei Mansion, she had been defeated time and time again and had always been controlled by Jiang Yuzhu.
Wei Jing is the most talented woman in the capital, and she refuses to accept it!
Why did her good reputation disappear, while Jiang Yuzhu, a fickle and despicable person, took the opportunity to clear herself?
"If you have this ability, I am willing to surrender."
Wei Jing had already realized that the man in black was extraordinary and became much calmer.
Hei Yuren sneered, "Wei Jing, in the end, you still failed to impress me. Your vision is too narrow."
Submitting to him and being his dog means you are bound to pay a lot.
After all the effort, all I wanted was a man.
In this regard, Wei Jing will never be able to compare with Jiang Yuzhu because her obsession is too deep.
Being belittled, Wei Jing touched the corner of her eyes with her handkerchief: "You don't understand, that's because no woman has ever treated you like this."
The man in black dares not show his face and lives in darkness forever.
You're just a sneaky villain, but you think you're so great?
Because the man in black was moody, erratic and irritable, Wei Jing didn't dare to say these words.
"From the first day I saw Xie Zhao, I told myself that I must marry him. Only his talent and knowledge are worthy of me."
Xie Zhao was granted marriage, so what? For so many years, Wei Jing had been waiting patiently, never giving up.
"Then how can I be sure that if I follow your wishes, Xie Zhao will belong to me?"
Wei Jing reacts very quickly and is not easy to fool.
The man in black curled his lips slightly, lifted Wei Jing's chin with one hand and said, "You have no other choice. If I want to kill you, it will be as easy as crushing an ant."
What the two of them had to do was not a deal, but his unilateral charity.
"Do you think Xie Zhao is someone out of reach?"
Through the mask, the man in black had a dark look in his eyes, and he sucked Wei Jing into a black vortex.
It took a long while for Wei Jing to react and she knelt down unconsciously.
Before leaving, the man in black smiled faintly. That smile was extremely strange, suddenly bringing a chill into the room. "Wei Jing, you will be married soon. Your husband is the newly crowned number one scholar, Feng Qing."
Getting married is the first step, and the mission will follow.
The man in black left quickly, and Wei Jing became confused again.
She sat on the bed with her hands on her knees, her body slightly curled up, and big tears rolled down her face.
After a moment, Wei Jing gritted her teeth and made up her mind. She had already done so much and there was no turning back.
The seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar is the Qiqiao Festival.
Jiang Yuzhu got up early and asked the kitchen to prepare her best pumpkin and coconut cake to give to her good sisters.
Hongli came in with a food box and said with a smile, "Madam, my cousin sent you the most authentic osmanthus cake from Jiangnan."
I heard that someone from the Lu family came to the capital, and because they were afraid that they would not be able to adapt to the food there, they brought the chef back with them.
"Would you like to try a piece?"
Hongli has already opened it and seen that each piece of osmanthus cake is decorated with a dried osmanthus flower. It is very exquisite and the level of the cake is comparable to that of the imperial chef in the palace.
Jiang Yuzhu glanced at it and said with a lack of interest: "I don't want to eat it."
Hongli felt somewhat regretful and reminded him, "Although it's a bit unkind of your cousin to come back and bother you after disappearing for a few years, he blocked a knife for you at Huguo Temple, so you can't just ignore him."
Hongli thought carefully and realized that her wife had sent her supplements once or twice, but she didn't even look at them. This was not the right attitude to show respect to a lifesaver.
Jiang Yuzhu put down the account book, looking disdainful: "Hongli, don't sympathize with the wrong person."
