Just when the dagger was only a hair away from He Lanxuan, an anxious voice came from behind, and Ning Jiuwei could tell it was Qin Lin's voice.
But Ning Jiuwei remained unmoved. No one could stop her from killing He Lanxuan today. The dagger in her hand pierced He Lanxuan's chest directly.
Qin Lin was standing just a few steps away from Ning Jiuwei. He stood there quietly, watching He Lanxuan cover his chest, closed his eyes, and clenched his fingers.
"He is my uncle." Qin Lin said with a frown.
Ning Jiuwei stood up and looked at Qin Lin with burning eyes, her red lips opened slightly and said: "I don't care who he is, I only know that he killed my father."
Qin Lin did not speak, but looked at Ning Jiuwei quietly. His eagle eyes were emotionless and changeable. He walked step by step, passed by Ning Jiuwei, and helped He Lanxuan who was lying on the ground. stand up.
"I hope you can explain Qi Lexuan's dress." Qin Lin looked at Ning Jiuwei and said.
Ning Jiuwei glanced at Qi Lexuan and said nothing. She turned sideways to make way for Qin Lin because she really didn't know how to explain it.
"I'll give you three days." After Qin Lin said that, he turned and left the bamboo forest.
Qi Lexuan watched Qin Lin leave and said softly: "Jiu Wei, do you want to explain?"
"Explain what, all of this is true, not to mention, why should I explain to him." Ning Jiuwei said and left the purple bamboo forest.
Hearing Ning Jiuwei's words, Qi Lexuan shook her head. She was obviously in a bad mood and had feelings for Qin Lin, but she still pretended not to care.
… ….
Mu Xiaoxiao placed the prepared snacks on the table and said, "Brother, what's wrong with you recently? Are you in a bad mood?"
"No, Xiaoxiao, why are you free to come here today?" Mu Chenfeng poured a cup of tea for Mu Xiaoxiao and asked.
"Auntie has prepared a wedding banquet for sister Yue the day after tomorrow. Does brother know about this?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked, taking a sip of tea.
Mu Chenfeng nodded. Even if he no longer cared about the family affairs, he still knew that his mother had been in a much better mood recently because of Mu Yue's affairs, and was preparing for the banquet with great fanfare.
Seeing Mu Chenfeng nodding without interest, Mu Xiaoxiao smiled, took a gold-plated invitation and handed it to Mu Chenfeng, and said, "Brother, what are you saying? You and Miss Ning were given by the Queen Mother. If you are married, please invite her to come too."
"Did mother agree?" Mu Chenfeng took the invitation and looked at Mu Xiaoxiao and asked.
Mu Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "Look at what you said, brother, why would my aunt stop you from doing this? Although she doesn't like Miss Ning, she has never objected to your marriage, so don't worry, brother. "
Mu Chenfeng thought for a while and realized that his mother had indeed not objected. He nodded immediately, but thinking of Ning Jiuwei's attitude towards Qin Lin that night, he suddenly fell silent again.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked with a frown.
"But will she come?" Mu Chenfeng held the gilded invitation and played with it in his hand, his eyebrows tightening.
A flash of light flashed in Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes. It seemed that Mu Chenfeng had a deep affection for Ning Jiuwei, and it was not like the affection between brother and sister at all.
"Why not? I can see that Miss Ning has a good impression of you, eldest brother, even better than Qingchen." Mu Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
After hearing Mu Xiaoxiao's words, Mu Chenfeng remembered that he hadn't seen Gu Qingchen in some days and asked, "Xiaoxiao, what has Qingchen been busy with recently? I haven't seen him for a long time."
"Qingchen has been busy with getting married these days. The date is scheduled for the ninth day of August, which is only a few days away." Mu Xiaoxiao said.
When Mu Chenfeng heard Mu Xiaoxiao's words, he nodded and said nothing. It seemed that Qingchen was really going to give up on Jiuwei and prepare to marry the princess.
"Brother, it's getting late. You go to bed early. I'll go back first."
Mu Xiaoxiao said what she needed to say and did what she needed to do. She stood up and prepared to leave. What she had to wait for now was for Mu Chenfeng to invite Ning Jiuwei to come. It was time for her to make arrangements.
After Mu Xiaoxiao left, Mu Chenfeng sat on the chair and sat there all night looking at the gilded invitation with the flickering candlelight.
The very next morning, Mu Chenfeng didn't even eat breakfast. He put on a sapphire blue robe, took a gold-plated invitation, and got on a carriage to the restaurant where Ning Jiuwei lived.
When Mu Chenfeng knocked on the door and came in, Ning Jiuwei was sitting in front of the table, raising her hand to play the piano. When she saw Mu Chenfeng, she stood up and asked, "Young Master Mu?"
"Jiu Wei, there will be a banquet in Mu Mansion tomorrow. I am here to send you an invitation." Mu Chenfeng handed the invitation to Ning Jiu Wei with a smile and said with a smile.
Hearing Mu Chenfeng's words, Ning Jiuwei picked up the invitation, opened it and took a look. The smile on her face solidified a lot. She raised her head and looked directly at Mu Chenfeng and said, "Tomorrow?"
"Well, Jiuwei, will you go?" Mu Chenfeng asked.
Ning Jiuwei was silent for a while, then closed the invitation and said, "I will go."
"Jiuwei?" Qi Lexuan glanced at Ning Jiuwei in surprise. She already knew about the relationship between Ning Jiuwei and Mrs. Gu, but she didn't expect that she would agree.
But Mu Chenfeng said very happily: "Then I will pick you up tomorrow."
"No, I'll go there by myself." Ning Jiuwei refused.
… …
Thunder roared, rain poured down like a torrent, and the whole world was shrouded in a layer of mist and rain. The lightning seemed to tear the sky apart, splitting down from the middle.
There were two people standing in the rain. Only their backs could be seen from a distance. Suddenly, one of them pulled out the long sword from his waist and penetrated the opponent's abdomen directly, drawing blood.
The woman covered her abdomen and slowly fell to the ground. When she turned her head, she could clearly see the woman's charming appearance, her bright eyes, and a hint of disbelief.
"Jiuwei~" Long Yurong didn't care about anything else. She dropped the oil-paper umbrella in her hand and ran towards the woman lying on the ground.
Ning Jiuwei covered her abdomen, looked at Long Yurong, smiled weakly, and lowered her head. The wound was still gurgling with blood, and the rain washed away it, and it soon became a river.
"No, Jiuwei~"
"No….."
At this time, Long Yurong suddenly opened her eyes and found that her whole body was wet with cold sweat, and even the hair on her forehead was soaked.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? Are you having a nightmare?" Qi Yun sat opposite, poured a cup of tea for Long Yurong, and asked with concern.
Long Yurong took a deep breath, tried to calm down her mood, took a sip of tea, and said, "Where are we?"
"We've arrived in Dongcheng. We'll reach the capital in two days." Qi Yun said.
"Tell the coachman to hurry up, I want to see Jiuwei as soon as possible." Long Yurong said.
Qi Yun blinked and said, "Sister-in-law, you are not in good health. This will be too much for you."
"I'm fine. Ask the coachman to hurry up. I'm worried about Jiuwei. The dream just now was too real. I'm worried." Long Yurong shook his head and waved.
