âI wonât let you off ...â Leng ruoxueâs voice was faint, but her words were like a curse to ning Duan. It made him feel fear, and his face was pale.
âJust kill me! Donât torture me. â Ning Duan cried bitterly, his originally tall body curled up in a corner, trembling.
âI said I wonât kill you, but donât think youâll have a good time.â Leng ruoxue laughed coldly, her beautiful eyes glancing at ning haolan as she continued,ââI want you to recognize him as your master and follow his lead from now on.â
Not only was ning Duan stunned by her words, but even ning haolan found it unbelievable.
Ning haolan looked at Leng ruoxue in confusion. He could not figure out what she meant. Oh! Ning Duan should be considered her captive, right? However, she had actually asked ning Duan to let him be the master. Why did this sound so mysterious?
âI want you to acknowledge him as your master,â Leng ruoxue repeated with a faint smile. Actually, she was returning the favor by doing this. After all, ning haolan had given her the green light for using ning Duan to test the medicine, and she was a person who knew how to repay kindness. Since she had no intention of killing ning Duan, why not do him a favor?
âYouâre not willing?â Leng ruoxue looked at the stunned ning Duan and said coldly.
âNo, no! However, he is the young master of the ning family, so I will definitely follow his lead. â Ning Duan said softly. He knew that Leng ruoxue had no intention of killing him, nor would she torture him. In fact, she even wanted him to acknowledge ning haolan as his master. After knowing this, his thoughts started to wander again, and the meaning behind his words was clear-there was no need for him to acknowledge ning haolan as his master.
âNo matter if you want to follow his lead, or if you want to follow his orders on the surface, you have to acknowledge him as your master.â Leng ruoxue said without any room for discussion. However, she could not help but sneer in her heart. If they didnât recognize him as their master, was that still a punishment? Did he really think that he was fine? If it were not for her Godfather, ning Duan probably would have died long ago. As a result, she would not allow ning Duan to refuse.
Ning Duan lowered his head and did not respond.
Upon seeing this, grape kicked him fiercely,ââWhy are you acting dumb? didnât you hear what my young miss said? Hurry up and recognize me as your master! Donât waste everyoneâs time!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ning Duan, who had been kicked, rolled on the ground twice before crawling back up in a sorry state. Although he was extremely dissatisfied, he did not dare to make a sound. He looked at ning haolan with an aggrieved expression before unwillingly kneeling in front of him, ready to acknowledge him as his master.
âRemember to take a blood oath!â Leng ruoxue reminded him impolitely.
âYes!â Ning Duan nodded gloomily, then made a blood oath. With the rules of the contract in place, he had officially become ning haolanâs servant.
âMaster!â After the contractâs rules disappeared, ning Duan continued to kneel with a face full of respect. His life was now in ning haolanâs hands, so he did not dare to get up unless ning haolan said something.
âGet up!â Ning haolan glanced at ning Duan indifferently before turning to look at Leng ruoxue. He could not understand what Leng ruoxue was trying to do. If she wanted to punish ning Duan, she would have taken him in as her servant. However, she had pushed ning Duan to him.
âWhy do you want me to take in this servant?â After some thought, ning haolan asked the question that had been on his mind.
âBecause I donât like him. However, with him in your hands, youâll have an extra spy in the ning family. He can be considered my reward!â Leng ruoxue said with a smile. Actually, the reason why ning haolan had accepted ning Duan as his servant was partly because of her Godfather.
âThen Iâll thank you in advance.â Ning haolan said helplessly. He understood what Leng ruoxue meant.
âThereâs no need to thank me, weâre both taking what we need. â Leng ruoxue did not think much of it.
âYes, I am.â Ning haolan nodded and continued,ââLetâs go back to the main house!â She couldnât find him these few days, so who knew what had happened in the main residence!
âYou have to let your servant wash up first.â Leng ruoxue looked at the disheveled ning Duan and kindly reminded him.
âYes.â Ning haolan glanced at ning Duan and nodded in agreement. Ning Duan was currently covered in dirt and was injured, so he really could not return to the main residence like this.
Afterwards, ning haolan brought ning dan to a nearby stream and gave him a healing pill. He then ordered him to wash up and change his clothes. After everything was done, ning haolan and the others returned to the ning familyâs main residence.
As soon as he entered the main residence, a guard informed ning haolan to invite him in on behalf of the master and the elders.
âCheng Xuan, take them back to LAN garden first! Iâll be right back. â Ning haolan said.
âThen be careful.â Cheng Xuan was a little worried, because he knew that nothing good would come out of those old foxes wanting to see Hao LAN. Otherwise, they wouldnât have sent people to wait at the door.
âI know,â Ning haolan nodded, then strode towards the meeting hall.
At this time, the meeting hall was in a mess. In the middle of the hall, a couple was crying and making a fuss. They kept howling and asking for their son to be returned.
On the other hand, the acting family head, Ning Yuan, sat in the main seat with a dark face. He stared coldly at the couple who were making a scene and felt extremely depressed. Some of the elders present did not look too good either. This was because the couple had been fighting for a few days and they could not find the culprit behind it.
Ning haolan had just walked into the meeting hall when he saw this unreasonable scene. His face immediately turned stern and he shouted,ââWhat are you guys howling about? This is a meeting hall, not a place for you to make a scene. â
Ning haolanâs loud voice caused quite a stir in the boisterous meeting hall. At the same time, it attracted everyoneâs attention. In an instant, everyoneâs eyes were focused on him.
As for the couple who were throwing a tantrum, they were first stunned when they heard his roar. When they finally came to their senses, they rushed to ning haolanâs side and questioned him loudly,ââWhereâs our son? Where did you put my Duan âer?â
Ning haolan was the young master of the ning family and the heir handpicked by the old ancestor. He held a high position in the family, so no matter how much they were unhappy with him, they did not dare to vent their anger on him. They did not even dare to have any physical contact with him, lest they be accused of being in the wrong. In fact, they had already crossed the line by questioning him, but they did not think so in their hearts.
âHeâs very good! However, you canât see him yet. â Ning Duan was his servant and had taken a blood oath, so he was not afraid that ning Duan would betray him. Besides, he felt that Leng ruoxueâs decision was very wise. She must have expected that he would encounter such a situation!
âHeâs our son, why canât we see him?â Ning Duanâs father asked in disbelief. He had not seen Duan âer for many days, so he was afraid that his child was no longer in this world. He only had one son, so when he suspected this possibility, the couple had gone to find the acting patriarch and the elders without any care, asking them to make a decision.
