The Ning family lived in a luxury area of the city. On the way, Jin Yining briefly explained the current situation of the Ning family. Ning Baiyuan had married four wives and had seven children in his life: three sons and four daughters. Ning Kong was the youngest daughter. Currently, only the third daughter, Ning Yan, who was five years older than Ning Kong, was not yet married and lived at home.
"Ning Yan and Lin Xue don't get along, do they?" Shang Ning knew without even thinking.
Jin Yining glanced at Shang Ning and continued driving. "Ning Yan was born to Ning Baiyuan's third wife, but it is said that when Ning Yan's mother was pregnant, Lin Xue and Ning Baiyuan had an affair and had a child. Because Ning Yan's mother miscarried, she was kicked out of the Ning family."
"A grand drama of the wealthy."
"Yes, that's why Ning Kong and Lin Xue didn't have a good life in the Ning family before. That was also a condition Ning Kong proposed when we agreed to get married: she had to leave the Ning family."
Shang Ning bit her lip slightly, looking down at her hands. "Even if I leave, if I can't bring myself to do it, it will be in vain no matter where I go."
Jin Yining glanced at Shang Ning, always feeling that she seemed to be plotting something again.
But Jin Yining couldn't say exactly what he was scheming about.
When Shang Ning arrived at the Ning family home, Ning Baiyuan had already been discharged from the hospital. Shang Ning found it ridiculous that he had been seriously ill just two days ago and was discharged today.
Jin Yining and Shang Ning got out of the car and entered the house. As soon as they entered the yard, they heard arguing coming from inside, mostly Lin Xue's shouts.
"You really think your daughter has risen to prominence like a phoenix? Now the Jin family is going to sue us, where is your precious daughter?" Ning Yan sneered. Her skin was fair, but whether it was because she was too tired recently or something else, there were slight dark circles under her eyes. Her words were full of contempt for Lin Xue.
Is the Jin family going to sue the Ning family?
Shang Ning looked at Jin Yining. His aunt was quick; she had just left in the morning and had already filed a complaint against the Ning family in the afternoon. It seemed she was really going to break ties with the Ning family.
Shang Ning touched her nose. Jin Xujing's method of threatening her to divorce him didn't seem particularly sophisticated. She wouldn't even glance at the entire Ning family if they all went to jail.
“My daughter is the Jin family’s daughter-in-law, what can they do to us?”
"What? What good things can a woman like you, who only knows how to climb into men's beds, produce? Your daughter is just as shameless as you, and now the Jin family can't wait to kick her out. If your daughter hadn't offended the Jin family over there, why would Jin Xujing be so eager to kill us?" Ning Yan felt a headache coming on when she thought about the recent suppression by the Jin family, especially since her eldest and second brothers didn't even know they had done anything wrong.
"You, you, you... Old man, look at your daughter, look at your daughter! I may not have done anything special for this family, but I've certainly worked hard. If it weren't for Ning Kong all these years, would these people be eating and dressing well? And..."
"Aunt Lin, have you no shame? What has Lao Qi done these past few years besides causing trouble? He even embarrassed himself on TV a while ago. Maybe the Jin family just couldn't stand it anymore, so they're targeting our family."
The speaker was Ning Zhong, the second son of the Ning family, who was a few years older than Lin Xue. He addressed her as "Auntie" with disdain.
Lin Xue was so angry that she kept clutching her chest, looking at the silent old man.
"Hey, isn't this our little Qi? You still have the nerve to come back after causing such a scene?"
As soon as Shang Ning entered the door, she heard a sarcastic remark. The speaker was Ning Kong's second sister, Ning Rong, who had just turned forty this year and had a sharp and mean face.
