Chapter 3 It’s a pity to disappoint the general
Shen Yuning smiled sarcastically and reacted instantly.
No wonder Chu Mingzhao always confronted her and was extremely hostile to her in the military camp. It turned out that he had known about Chu Ruyan and Pei Yanzhou for a long time.
The three of them had already secretly made their move.
"I haven't agreed yet. I'm afraid I'll disappoint Master Chu."
Shen Yuning was planning to leave, but now she stopped.
Chu Mingzhao is Chu Ruyan's younger brother and the eldest son of Chu Xiang and his second wife. Although he and Chu Ruyan have the same father but different mothers, the two siblings have a very good relationship.
He was in poor health when he was young, and was later arranged by the Prime Minister of Chu to practice martial arts in the Xuanjia Camp. Now he has become Pei Yanzhou's right-hand man.
"How could I be disappointed? It's only a matter of time before you break off your engagement with Brother Yanzhou." As he said that, he took a cup of tea from the table and sat down on the chair.
There was a small bowl of shelled water chestnut rice, which was crystal clear and very tempting.
Chu Mingzhao picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth, eating very quickly.
"Chen Yuning, stop struggling. Everyone has their own destiny. You and Brother Yanzhou are not the same kind of people at all."
"My sister and Brother Yanzhou are a perfect match and have a lot in common. You can't expect to tie Brother Yanzhou down with just a marriage certificate, right?"
"If I were you, I would take the initiative to cancel the engagement without even Brother Yanzhou asking..."
"Why should I cancel the engagement?" Shen Yuning remained calm and asked, "Just to help you, the sycophants?"
She sneered and said, "I originally thought that there was at least one good person in the Chu family, but I didn't expect that Deputy Guard Chu is the same as your sister."
"What's wrong with my sister? How can you compare to my sister?" Chu Mingzhao said anxiously.
"Just because I don't steal other people's fiancés, I'm better than your sister."
A faint light flashed in Shen Yuning's deep eyes, "Chu Mingzhao, just because I can't stand the faces of you guys, I will delay this marriage until Chu Ruyan's face turns pale and she doesn't have a good end."
"You will never have a good ending!"
Chu Mingzhao stood up and said excitedly: "Brother Yanzhou, she scolded my sister!" "Chen Yuning, you vicious woman, you, you, you... cough, cough, cough... cough, cough."
Chu Mingzhao suddenly had difficulty breathing and started coughing violently.
His cheeks flushed red, he kept scratching his throat with his hands, and he was spinning around in pain. Finally, he knelt on the ground with a distorted face.
It was obvious that he had just been overjoyed and ate the water chestnut rice too fast - he choked.
"Retribution has come so soon?" Shen Yuning was calm and did not step forward to help.
Pei Yanzhou glared at her and quickly handed him a cup of tea. "Mingzhao, drink some water."
Chu Mingzhao drank the water, but there was no improvement at all.
Seeing his face gradually turning purple, Shen Yuning reminded Pei Yanzhou:
"Mr. Chu, a water chestnut must have gotten stuck in your trachea. If you don't remove the foreign object quickly, you'll soon be without a brother-in-law."
"Shen Yuning, you——"
Pei Yanzhou's expression suddenly became panic. He looked at Shen Yuning, then at Chu Mingzhao, and there was already a look of begging in his eyes.
But Ming Zhao's curses just now were too harsh. He felt that Shen Yuning was narrow-minded and would definitely not help...
However, before Shen Yuning could make any statement, Chu Mingzhao suddenly grabbed Pei Yanzhou's sleeve.
He just shook his head stubbornly, and the meaning was very clear—if he didn’t ask her, he would never accept Shen Yuning’s favor even if he died!
He believed in Pei Yanzhou and believed that he would help him get the water chestnut rice out!
Pei Yanzhou was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded to show respect!
He patted Chu Mingzhao's back hard, then stroked his chest frantically, and finally turned him around... He was so anxious that he was exhausted.
Shen Yuning was happy and relaxed. She turned around and stood with her hands behind her back, counting silently in her heart: "One, two, three..."
As expected, Chu Mingzhao died soon.
His eyes rolled back and his pupils lost focus, and he felt like he was going to die in the next breath.
“Get out of the way!”
A calm voice sounded, and at the critical moment, her nature as a doctor made her walk to Chu Mingzhao's side.
He lifted Chu Mingzhao from the ground with one hand, pressed his entire abdomen against the back of the chair, and then stretched out his palm and slapped him hard on the back.
Clap, clap again, and keep clap.
"Bang, bang, bang," she attacked with extreme cruelty and without mercy.
Even Pei Yanzhou frowned as he watched.
"puff--"
After a while, a round water chestnut rice finally came out of Chu Mingzhao's mouth.
As the air entered his lungs, his complexion returned to normal and his breathing gradually became steady.
"Thank you, thank you..."
Pei Yanzhou looked embarrassed, but out of politeness, he still thanked Shen Yuning.
"Don't thank me yet, your brother-in-law hasn't woken up yet."
Shen Yuning was calm and composed, without stopping her hands and not looking at him.
"how so?"
Pei Yanzhou approached and found Chu Mingzhao's eyes were closed, and there was still no sign of waking up. He asked anxiously, "Is he okay?"
"I don't know. He held his breath for too long. Even if he is rescued, he will probably be demented for a while."
Shen Yuning took out a row of silver needles and quickly stabbed them into Chu Mingzhao.
"Shen Yuning, you——"
Pei Yanzhou's voice suddenly rose, and he grabbed her wrist, "You are the military doctor of the Xuanjia Battalion. I order you to cure him!"
He shot a dangerous look at her, revealing a threat: “Shen Yuning, you are not the kind of person who would take revenge on others, right?”
"Heh." Shen Yuning curled her lips and smiled, her peach blossom eyes tinged with sarcasm:
"It's a pity to disappoint General Pei."
"What did you say?"
"nothing!"
"Shen Yuning, you——"
Pei Yanzhou's eyes widened as he saw Shen Yuning suddenly pick up an extremely long silver needle and pierce it into Chu Mingzhao's philtrum with lightning speed.
He wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
“Ah, it hurts—”
Chu Mingzhao, lying on the ground, twitched violently, then spat out a mouthful of black blood and fainted again.
Pei Yanzhou's face turned pale, and veins popped out on his forehead:
“Shen Yuning, you’re looking for death!”
He raised his hand, wanting to strike her with a palm wind, but he never brought it down.
Shen Yuning was not afraid at all, but calmly wiped her hands with a handkerchief:
"I've always been a vindictive person, never distinguishing between public and private matters. Now... I've finally gotten my revenge!"
Pei Yanzhou was extremely angry, "Chen Yuning, don't think that I won't hurt you just because we're engaged!"
“Come here, bring Shen Yuning…”
"Brother Yanzhou——"
Before he could finish his words, a faint voice came.
Chu Mingzhao suddenly coughed, and miraculously opened his eyes. "Brother Yanzhou, why am I lying on the ground? Did I just fall asleep?"
"Ming Zhao, are you awake?"
Pei Yanzhou was overjoyed and hurried to help him, "You just fainted, luckily you're fine now."
"How are you? Are you feeling better? Are you still feeling unwell?"
Pei Yanzhou carefully helped Chu Mingzhao to the chair, and the concerned look in his eyes did have some of the meaning of a brother-in-law.
Shen Yuning's eyes darkened, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
