Chapter 19

Nian Lie, Your Love For My Sister is Like This

At night, Yunjing No.1.

After dinner, Ning Qing was about to go upstairs when Nian Lie returned.

From the corner of her eye, she saw the man at the door. Ning Qing pretended not to see him and turned to go upstairs.

Footsteps approached from behind.

A strong force hit her arm and pulled her body, almost making her fall from the stairs.

Before she could resist, Nian Lie’s dark face appeared in front of him.

“You went to look for Bai Yangyang?”

Ning Qing struggled. “Nian Lie, let go of me!”

His eyes were red, and his usual coldness was no longer there.

“Who allowed you to look for her?!”

Ning Qing was frightened by him and was stunned.

Then she said coldly, “She complained to you so quickly.”

Ning Qing looked into his eyes and saw that his eyes were filled with sparks. His perfect facial features were slightly twisted.

Her eyebrows rose. It was clearly a smile, but it felt extremely distant.

“I thought she was so daring to be involved with you.”

When these words came from her mouth, they were just spoken gently without any ripples.

Nian Lie’s expression was dark. An unknown emotion burned in his dark eyes, easily piercing through the person in front of him.

He warned her word by word, “Ning Qing, don’t put your thoughts on her.”

Ning Qing gritted her teeth and forced a warm smile. Her slender fingers touched his shoulder and comforted him gently.

“I’m just concerned about your recent movements. I don’t mean anything else.”

This sudden change made Nian Lie narrow his eyes suspiciously.

However, her gentleness did not move him.

The anger he felt when he first heard her movements disappeared. Complicated emotions surged in his deep eyes, making it difficult for one to recognize him.

“If Madam Nian is so impatient, it will be easy for others to misunderstand… You’re afraid that your status as Madam Nian will be taken away.”

Ning Qing’s gaze flickered, and Nian Lie saw through her subtle movements.

Suddenly, coldness and impatience returned to his brows. His words were laced with ice as he said coldly, “I forgot that Madam Nian wants to divorce me all the time. How could she be worried about such things?”

The hand on his shoulder suddenly stiffened. Nian Lie sensed it and his lips curled into a self-deprecating smile.

Her thoughts were seen through. Ning Qing retracted her hand, and her face immediately turned cold.

“Nian Lie, I can’t control what you want to do or who you’re with. However, aren’t you tired of looking for another woman in the name of a married woman and establishing a blissful marriage at the same time?”

“…”

He pursed his lips tightly, some emotion churning in his eyes as he looked at her steadily.

Ning Qing looked at him defiantly.

“You can either openly admit that you like those women and divorce me, or you can cut off all the flowers outside. I…”

“What if I don’t choose?”

The man’s words froze Ning Qing.

“…”

“Madam Nian, you’ve worked hard. You did so much just to get rid of me.”

Nian Lie seemed to be studying her expression seriously. Soon, a hint of disappointment passed over his face. Then, there was no more fluctuation. Ning Qing suddenly became stunned.

The strength in her arms relaxed.

Nian Lie’s deep voice exploded in her ears.

“Ning Qing, well done.”

He turned and went down the stairs, but he turned back again.

“I’ll only say this once. Don’t touch Bai Yangyang.”

The man walked away. Ning Qing was aggrieved and dissatisfied. His feelings for Ning Su surpassed anything else.

She smiled coldly. “So your love for my sister ends here?”

Nian Lie heard the mockery in her words. He closed his eyes and opened them again. His eyes were as deep as ink, and no one could see through his thoughts.

“In this world, anyone has the right to mock my love. Only you can’t.”

“Yes.”

Of course, she knew why.

Ning Qing smiled, her eyes red.

“I’m not worthy.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“…”

She took a deep breath, her expression cold and unlike before.

“In that case, I’ll warn you too. Before we get a divorce, don’t even think about finding a woman outside.”

She stood on the stairs and raised her chin, declaring war on him arrogantly with a suicidal mindset.

“If I don’t live well, you’ll never live well either.”

A cold and sharp aura emitted from Nian Lie’s body, and a mysterious smile appeared in his eyes.

“Alright then. We’ll torture each other until the end.”
