Wen Zhongtian silently removed the black mask from his face. Since he had already been recognized, there was no point in continuing to hide it.
"How did you recognize me?" Wen Zhongtian asked, somewhat puzzled.
He was all wrapped up like that, how could he still recognize him? He and Ning Hongze didn't seem to be very familiar with each other? Wrapped up like that, even Ning Chengze probably wouldn't recognize him for a while.
"It's my intuition."
You can recognize him just by looking at his eyes, and he also revealed that his best skill is boxing. Putting all these factors together, it's easy to identify this person as Wen Zhongtian.
Most importantly, Wen Zhongtian is the male protagonist in this book, and he only remembers his name.
Unexpectedly, it really was him.
"Young Master Wen, what are you doing here at our manor in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" Ning Feng'er asked.
She asked directly, her tone slightly sharp, but because her voice was so soft, her questioning lacked any force and instead sounded like a coquettish plea.
"Me?" He naturally wanted to play the hero and save the damsel in distress. He originally planned to let these men in black break in first, and then make his appearance when they scared Ning Feng'er.
According to Ning Chengze, he will definitely be able to win the heart of the beauty when the time comes.
To their surprise, their mission was thwarted; they were discovered as soon as they stepped into the village.
The people in this village are very vigilant.
Of course, what surprised him the most was the two siblings.
It's like he's become a completely different person.
He had seen the two siblings. One was gentle, but there was a hint of sorrow in her eyes. The other was gloomy and he didn't know what she was thinking.
But now, things seem completely different.
Ning Feng'er seemed more vibrant and energetic.
Ning Hong, needless to say, exuded confidence, a stark contrast to his former self.
"Wen Zhongtian, what are you doing here at my estate dressed like this? What? Did Ning Chengze send you to steal things from my estate?"
"Of course not, why would I steal anything?" Wen Zhongtian quickly retorted.
Although he was dressed in black on the outside, he was wearing white underneath. He simply felt that the white clothes were too conspicuous, so he changed into black.
"If that's not the case, then what are you doing here?"
"I've come to see Miss Feng'er."
"I don't know you well, why did you come to see me?" Ning Feng'er was completely baffled. She and Wen Zhongtian were not very familiar with each other. Although they had spent some time together under the arrangement of their families, she could sense that Wen Zhongtian did not like her very much.
Of course, she didn't like Wen Zhongtian either.
Therefore, she really didn't know what Wen Zhongtian wanted from her. Besides, it was the middle of the night? A man and a woman alone together... Thinking of this, Ning Feng'er's eyes grew even colder. "You want to ruin my reputation?"
Wen Zhongtian came looking for her in the middle of the night. If this got out, Ning Feng'er's reputation would be ruined.
This person has a wicked heart.
"I didn't mean to ruin your reputation; I really have something to discuss with you." Wen Zhongtian also felt that this matter was somewhat inappropriate.
Why did he have such a stupid idea back then and agree to it?
"What's the matter that made Young Master Wen come looking for Feng'er in the middle of the night? Is it that urgent?"
"Yes, Chengze sent me here. I thought Chengze was also at this estate."
Wen Zhongtian said, forcing himself to speak.
“Wen Zhongtian, do you really think we’re all fools? Your words don’t match up. Just now you said you came to find Feng’er, and now you say Ning Chengze sent you to find him. Since you’re so close to him, you should know that Ning Chengze and I have never gotten along. So why would he be at my manor?”
Ning Hong frowned deeply.
Over the past year, Ning Feng'er and Wen Zhongtian hadn't had much of a entanglement, and he thought Wen Zhongtian had given up on using Ning Feng'er to get revenge on Ning Yunxiao. He hadn't expected that Wen Zhongtian hadn't given up after all.
Of course, the most foolish one was Ning Chengze.
As Feng'er's own brother, he actually helped outsiders to deal with his own people.
Is there something wrong with this person's brain?
Wen Zhongtian remained silent.
Since the plan has failed, there's no point in saying anything more.
He sighed and prepared to leave.
At that very moment, a sudden change occurred.
A man in black suddenly sprang up from behind and attacked Wen Zhongtian.
Ning Hong reacted swiftly, swinging the wooden stick in her hand to confront the man.
It separates immediately upon contact.
The man's blade was sharp, but it was still chipped at the edge. Ning Hong didn't fare any better; his wooden stick broke, and he stumbled back several steps, bumping into Wen Zhongtian before regaining his footing.
After being bumped like that, Wen Zhongtian regained his senses.
What? He was actually saved by the Ning family? He was saved by Ning Hongze?
Why did you attack me?
Now that he has regained his senses, he naturally no longer needs outside protection.
Wen Zhongtian pushed Ning Hongze behind him, blocking her way.
He immediately raised his palms to meet the attack.
Unlike Ning Hong, who relies solely on brute force, Wen Zhongtian, the male protagonist of this book, possesses considerable strength.
The man in black's knife was ruthless, each strike aimed at Wen Zhongtian's vital points.
The veins on the arm holding the knife bulged.
Wen Zhongtian's fists were no match for a sharp weapon.
Seeing Wen Zhongtian being forced to retreat, Ning Hong picked up the large knife that he had intercepted earlier and threw it to Wen Zhongtian.
With the knife in hand, Wen Zhongtian instantly stabilized the situation.
In a flash, just as the man in black turned around, he slashed directly at his face with his sword.
The man in black pushed off with both feet and darted backward.
The two exchanged blows dozens of times in the short span of an incense stick's time.
Gradually, Wen Zhongtian's breathing became somewhat unstable.
He was young after all, and no match for the man in black's profound inner strength.
Seemingly sensing that Wen Zhongtian was somewhat out of his depth, the man in black immediately launched a fierce attack.
In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed to Wen Zhongtian's side, deflecting Wen Zhongtian's broadsword with one slash and striking Wen Zhongtian's chest with another palm. Wen Zhongtian's entire body flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground.
With a "pfft," Wen Zhongtian spat out a mouthful of blood, clutching his chest, and struggled to his feet, using his broadsword for support.
Seeing Wen Zhongtian injured, the man in black seized the opportunity to press his advantage.
Suddenly, a stick came crashing down on him, sending him flying. His body traced a perfect parabola in the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
It seemed the fall was quite severe; the man in black didn't even have the strength to get up.
The situation on the field suddenly changed.
Why did you help him?
The man in black looked at Ning Hongze.
He never imagined that someone who was considered a good-for-nothing by everyone could actually hurt him.
