Chapter 222 Xie Jing is too treacherous

After listening to Leng Xiao's words, Xie Jing thought, no wonder Nan Mianmian wanted Leng Xiao to marry her, it turns out there is this story between them. Since

ancient times, there are countless stories of heroes saving beauties and beauties giving themselves to them.

Leng Xiao is not bad looking, knows martial arts, and is not a playboy.

At the critical moment, someone suddenly came to her rescue, no wonder she was tempted.

Nan Mianmian will not suffer a loss if she marries Leng Xiao.

If he had known that Nan Mianmian would fall for this, he would have arranged this before the marriage, and there would be no need for such trouble.

Seeing that the general had not spoken, Leng Xiao thought that the general was angry, so he explained: "General, I will never..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xie Jing, who said: "Leng Xiao, you have followed me for many years and have always been loyal. You have no time to take care of your own life. You are not young anymore, it's time to get married." Leng Xiao

was stunned when he heard this, and felt that this topic was a bit wrong. Why did he bring up his life?

"General, I'm not in a hurry..."

Xie Jing interrupted him again, because he knew Leng Xiao too well and knew that what he said was not for him to hear.

"Today, the third lady came to me and told me about what happened between you two."

Leng Xiao was embarrassed, he knew that the general knew it, and fortunately he said it in advance, otherwise there would be a big misunderstanding.

Even if the general didn't like the third wife, she was still the third wife in name, and if she was not related to his subordinates, it would be considered a cuckold.

"General, I have no choice. Please..."

He was interrupted by Xie Jing again, "Of course I know, and I understand you, but..."

Xie Jing paused for a while deliberately.

Leng Xiao had a bad feeling when he heard this. He looked at Xie Jing and wanted to explain, but before he could say anything, Xie Jing spoke again.

"The third wife knows she has no face to stay in the mansion, and has proposed a divorce to me. She also said that she has been hugged by a man and seen naked, and has lost her reputation. She plans to become a nun after the divorce, and live with the ancient Buddha forever."

Leng Xiao was stunned when he heard this. It turned out that the general did not doubt him or want to punish him.

But he never thought that Nan Mianmian had such thoughts in her heart.

She was fine these days, why would she have such thoughts?

Was she pretending in front of him on purpose, just to prevent him from thinking too much?

Leng Xiao couldn't help explaining any longer, "General, I carried the Third Madam back home because she couldn't walk. I had to do it and I had no intention of overstepping the mark. Moreover, the Third Madam was insulted by the gangsters and I was very timely. It was just her clothes that were torn, and she didn't show anything. Why is the Third Madam so upset?"

Xie Jing sighed and said, "Of course I believe what you said, but the Third Madam has a strong self-esteem and is strong-willed. Even so, she can't stay at home and be with others. She has to become a nun."

Leng Xiao frowned when he heard this. He didn't expect that although he was always laughing and joking and would argue with people until they were speechless, he was actually very sad in his heart and just didn't want others to know.

Seeing Leng Xiao was silent, Xie Jing continued, "Don't think too much. No one wants this to happen. You can't marry her just because of this. That's too unfair to you."

Xie Jing stood up, passed by Leng Xiao, patted his shoulder, and said, "By the way, I'm already looking for a girl from a good family for you. You can pick one yourself. You're not young anymore, it's time to get married." After Xie

Jing finished speaking, he walked away. When he reached the door, he thought that Xue Yi and the others seemed to be not young anymore. It seemed that he really had to find a wife for them.

He couldn't be the only one with a wife and let them look at him with envy.

Leng Xiao was stunned for a long time. He really didn't expect Nan Mianmian to become a monk.

After a long while, Leng Xiao stood up and strode out.

Here, Nan Mianmian was watching Xiuhe packing up the things, and immediately divorced. It was time to pack up and go home.

At this time, the maid walked in with small steps, "Miss, Guard Leng wants to see you." When

Nan Mianmian heard Leng Xiao, she immediately smiled and said, "Let him in quickly."

"Yes." The maid went out, and soon, Leng Xiao walked in.

Nan Mianmian smiled and looked at Leng Xiao, only to see that he was wearing the same dark blue suit as always, a color that he never changed all year round. If he changed into brighter clothes, it would definitely look good.

"Guard Leng, are you here for something?"

Leng Xiao looked at Nan Mianmian and saw that she was looking at him and smiling. It turned out that she was pretending not to let him know that she would become a nun and always accompany the green lamp and the ancient Buddha.

"I heard that you want to divorce the general."

Nan Mianmian still smiled and nodded, "Yes, the general doesn't like me, and I also found that I don't like the general very much. I wanted to marry the general just to compete with Du Huilan. Now I understand it and divorced."

Leng Xiao pursed his lips and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

Nan Mianmian thought for a while and said, "I don't have any plans for the time being. I am divorcing, and outsiders don't know my situation. I will cultivate myself first."

Leng Xiao knew what she meant when he heard her words. Outsiders didn't know that she had not consummated the marriage with the general. After the divorce, there would definitely be some gossip.

In addition to the kidnapping incident, it is possible that she would become a monk.

Leng Xiao hesitated for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Then I want to marry you, are you willing to marry me?"

Nan Mianmian was stunned when she heard this. Leng Xiao was going to marry her so soon.

It had only been a short time since Xie Jing said that, and Leng Xiao came to marry her?

"Didn't the general ask you to marry me?" Rui Zhen was Xie Jing's order, and with Leng Xiao's personality, he really agreed.

Leng Xiao shook his head: "It's not the general's idea, it's my own idea."

In fact, marrying Nan Mianmian was not a difficult thing.

He knew that Nan Mianmian was not bad by nature, but a little arrogant, which was not a problem.

He didn't dislike Nan Mianmian and was willing to marry her.

As long as she was willing. Anyway, he

couldn't bear to see her become a monk.

Nan Mianmian heaved a sigh of relief. It was not Xie Jing who asked him to come, and he didn't know what method Xie Jing used.

"Why did you marry me?"

Leng Xiao pursed his lips, "I hugged you, so I should be responsible for you."

Nan Mianmian was a little surprised when she heard that. She had never heard him talk about responsibility before. Why did he suddenly want to take responsibility?

"Then can you be good to me for the rest of your life? No concubines, no liking other women, can you do that?"

Leng Xiao heard that he hadn't even thought about getting married, so how could he think of taking concubines?

Besides, the general said that women are the most troublesome.

Facts have proved that women are indeed troublesome.

Of course, he won't get a bunch of women to cause trouble for himself.

"I can do it. I can raise my hand and swear."

Nan Mianmian was secretly happy when she heard that. On the surface, she said seriously, "If you dare not do it, I will let you be driven out by the general."

Leng Xiao nodded, "Okay."

Nan Mianmian thought for a while, afraid that he would regret it, and said, "Since you want to marry me, and you are not young anymore, then hurry up and get married. The three books and six ceremonies are not missing. Do you understand?"

Leng Xiao nodded, "I understand."

Nan Mianmian's eyes showed a smile, "Then you go back and prepare, let the general act as a matchmaker and come to my house to propose marriage."

"Okay." Leng Xiao was relieved to see that she agreed and would not become a nun.

After Leng Xiao left, Nan Mianmian couldn't wait to go to Lingxiyuan.

At this moment, Jiang Youning was curious about how Xie Jing would make Leng Xiao marry Nan Mianmian.

"You won't use coercion or inducement, will you? Leng Xiao has been with you for so many years, you can't be so wicked."

Xie Jing chuckled, "I don't want to use coercion or inducement. I'll let him willingly ask Nan Mianmian to marry her."

"So powerful?" Jiang Youning was skeptical, but still didn't believe it. "Leng Xiao won't suddenly say he wants to marry Nan Mianmian. If Nan Mianmian didn't marry you, it's possible."

Xie Jing raised his eyes and looked at her, "You know Leng Xiao so well?"

Jiang Youning raised her chin and said, "He is loyal to you, why would he suddenly want to marry Nan Mianmian?"

At this time, Chuntao came in to report, "General, Madam, the third lady is here."

Jiang Youning and Xie Jing looked at each other, and she looked at Chuntao, "Let her in."

"Yes." Chun Tao turned around and went out, and then led Nan Mianmian in. After

Nan Mianmian came forward to greet them, she looked at Xie Jing and Jiang Youning in surprise, "Leng Xiao just came to me and asked me to marry him. You are too fast, aren't you?"

Jiang Youning also looked at Xie Jing in surprise, "General, you still say there is no coercion or temptation?"

Nan Mianmian also looked at Xie Jing, waiting for his answer.

Xie Jing said lightly: "I just said that he saw you naked and divorced you to become a monk, that's all."

Jiang Youning: "..." Can it be like this?

Nan Mianmian: "..." How could she want to become a monk?

Jiang Youning was full of admiration, "No one knows Leng Xiao better than the general. He can control Leng Xiao with just one sentence."

Nan Mianmian agreed with Jiang Youning. Just a few words made Leng Xiao willing to marry her and agree to her excessive request.

She knew that Leng Xiao didn't like her yet, but Leng Xiao still cared about her, which was better than Xie Jing.

In time, Leng Xiao would definitely like her.

Nan Mianmian was relieved, but she was afraid that Leng Xiao was forced to marry her by Xie Jing. In that case, the result would be the same as marrying Xie Jing, which was not what she wanted.

After resolving this matter, Nan Mianmian went back.

Xie Jing also went to write a divorce letter. This matter could not be delayed.

Nan Mianmian took the divorce letter to her parents' home.

The Nan family was very surprised to see their daughter suddenly return.

"Daughter, isn't Xie Jing back? Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, why are you back?" Madam Nan asked in confusion.

"Your mother is right. If outsiders knew, they would say that you don't know any etiquette, and then everyone would spit at you to death." Lord Nan also said.

Nan Mianmian calmly took out the divorce letter and handed it to them, smiling: "Dad and Mom, I have divorced Xie Jing."

Lord Nan and Madam Nan were stunned.

"Aren't you determined to marry the general? Why are you divorcing suddenly?" Lord Nan asked first.

Madam Nan looked at her silly daughter and said earnestly, "Silly girl, the general is not dead, why are you thinking of getting a divorce?"

Nan Mianmian sighed and said, "The general doesn't like me, and it would be a waste of my youth if I continued, so I got a divorce. However, I'm going to get married soon, and my parents want me to get married again."

Lord Nan and Madam Nan were stunned. Getting married right after getting a divorce?

This speed is too fast.

Madam Nan came back to her senses from her surprise and asked hurriedly, "Daughter, who do you want to marry? Why haven't I heard you mention it?"

Nan Mianmian didn't want to hide it, she would know sooner or later.

"The person I want to marry is Leng Xiao, the bodyguard beside the general."

Madam Nan and Lord Nan were shocked again when they heard it.

Day by day, one day, she will be scared to death.

"Why do you suddenly want to marry the general's guard? You marrying a guard with your status is marrying down, you know?" Madam Nan was a little anxious. How could her daughter marry a guard?

Nan Mianmian took Madam Nan's hand and said, "Mother, I know it, but I just got divorced. Besides, Leng Xiao saved my life. He is a good person and promised not to take concubines, only me. So what if Xie Jing has a high status? I won't live well if I marry him."

Madam Nan and Lord Nan were frightened when they heard this.

"Why would Leng Xiao save your life? What's going on?"

Nan Mianmian had to tell them about the kidnapping that day.

"If Leng Xiao hadn't arrived in time that day, I would have been dead, and I might have even committed suicide. Leng Xiao is indeed a good man. I believe in your daughter's judgment this time."

Nan Mianmian looked at her parents seriously, indicating that she was definitely not wrong this time.

Madam Nan and Lord Nan looked at each other again and said, "Let's discuss it later. Don't be anxious."

Nan Mianmian couldn't help but get anxious when she heard that, "How can I not be anxious? What if he changes his mind and doesn't want to marry me? Your daughter won't be able to get married."

Madam Nan patted her daughter's hand soothingly and said, "Child, he is a guard who has married you. He has been very lucky in his whole life. How could he regret it? Don't be like last time, impulsive and end up with nothing."

Nan Mianmian was so anxious that she had to tell them the reason why Leng Xiao was willing to marry her.

After hearing this, Madam Nan and Lord Nan fell silent.

"So that's it!"

Nan Mianmian said again, "I have asked him to find a general to act as a matchmaker and come to the mansion to propose marriage on the second day of the Chinese New Year."

"If Leng Xiao is really a good person, you can consider it. He is a subordinate of the general, so his character should not be bad. Otherwise, he would not want to marry you just because he heard that you were going to become a monk." Lord Nan said quietly.

Madam Nan was still a little hesitant. Leng Xiao's status was too low, a guard.

"It would be nice if Leng Xiao could have a job."

Nan Mianmian said, "Mom, what's good about being an official? Look at Dad, he speaks in an official tone all day long."

Lord Nan opened his mouth but didn't say a word.

Leng Xiao was already preparing, but the first thing he did was to find the general to act as a matchmaker for him.

He said in a rush that he wanted to marry Nan Mianmian.

But after calming down, he felt that he was too impulsive.

Although Nan Mianmian was divorced from the general, she was also the housekeeper's daughter. How could he, a small guard, be worthy of her? People

had already walked to the study, and Leng Xiao was hesitating whether to go in.

The door of the study was opened from the inside, and it was Xie Jing who opened the door.

"General."

Xie Jing asked: "Is there something?"

Leng Xiao opened his mouth, "I have something to tell the general."

Good night, babies!
