“Do I need your help? When did I say I needed your help? Jing Ning, did you start to regret it when you were in the cave? Shouldn’t you regret kidnapping Jing Tian? If you didn’t seek your own death, why would there be so many things that happened after that? You compromised and made me your girlfriend for so many years. You sacrificed so much. Why would you regret it?” I looked at him disdainfully.
Jing Ning’s eyes were a little misty. “Nanxing! I really don’t understand. How did you become like this? Can’t we just live a good life? The Jing family will belong to me sooner or later. I’m the heir of the Jing family! I was just acting with others. I never had any romantic feelings for Nanyang. She threw herself into my arms. I did it all to anger you. Why are you so insensible?”
I had never heard him make such accusations.
I was amazed.
I took a deep breath. I asked him, “Jing Ning, then tell me, why do you have to marry me? Nanyang is the true eldest daughter of the Nan family and the future heir of the Nan family. I am an unwelcome orphan. Why do you have to marry me? You have a better choice, a choice that is more conducive to the future development of the Jing family. You want the person you marry to become your assistant. Why do you despise me so much and want to marry me?”
Jing Ning was stunned. He stared at me in a daze.
I looked at him calmly, not allowing my inner thoughts to show on my face.
What an easy answer!
Why didn’t he just say, “Because I love you”? I was really speechless.
There was definitely something wrong with Jing Ning’s brain right now. He was simply insane.
Jing Ning mumbled, “Why is it you? Why Is it you? Why Is it you?”
I waited patiently for him to come to his senses. I glanced at Gu Yan, who was lying on the ground unconscious. It seemed that I couldn’t count on her anymore.
I was puzzled. Why did Jing Ning remember all the grudges between her and Gu Yan so clearly? Why was his past with me so vague?
I tried to twist my wrist. The rope was very thick, and it rubbed against my skin until it hurt a little. However, after a few strokes, it started to loosen.
After all, Jing Ning wasn’t a professional.
Jing Ning mumbled to himself. Suddenly, he hugged her head and squatted down. “Why do I have to marry Nanxing? Why do I have to marry Nanxing? Why do I have to marry Nanxing?”
Although I felt that it was strange, my hands sped up. I quickly thought of all the methods Su Qian and Su Shen had taught me and scanned my surroundings.
Once the ropes on my hands were untied, I had to quickly untie the ropes on my feet. Then, I ran up and rushed to open the door. The wooden club by the door happened to be in my hands as a weapon. Once the door was opened, no matter who was outside, I had to strike first!
My intuition told me that this was still the same square, so there would be many people outside. As long as I left this door, there would be no problem at all.
There might not be anyone at home who would notice that I had gone out for a long time and hadn’t returned. Therefore, I had to rely on myself.
The skin on my wrist should have been bruised to the point of bleeding. It was a heart-wrenching pain, and I could also smell my own faint bloody smell.
Poison on the left and medicine on the right.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t of much help to me at the moment.
Jing Ning suddenly stood up. I was startled. I exerted a lot of strength in my hands, and my left hand emerged from the rope. I couldn’t help but straighten my back and pretend that my hands were still tied together as I calmly looked at Jing Ning.
The misty expression on Jing Ning’s face disappeared, and I couldn’t help but be startled.
