ger girl blinked, feeling that her senior had changed in some way after being apart for a while. 。For example, the other person's skin became more fair and beautiful. 。After she walked past, she was...The young man had a moment where his scalp felt like it was going to explode.

The general held his chin in one hand, extinguishing his cigar with the other. He then reached down toward something beneath him.

He lowered his eyes, assuming an air of superiority. His expression was cold and cruel, his deep blue eyes, like those brewing a black storm, stared at him heavily, coldly stating the facts: "No pawnshop in Linhai would dare to accept this."

Ning Shu didn't speak. He was actually feeling a little uncomfortable. After all, in such a narrow space, it was rather difficult to accommodate two adult men.

He didn't know what Fu Shaoshuai was going to do to him.

But this time, Ning Shu only grasped the edge of the glass, with no intention of resisting.

Hearing this, he also looked at the military officer, momentarily stunned, then closed his lips and said nothing.

.....

The young man leaned against the back of the car, slightly dazed. His clothes were rumpled and disheveled. Because his skin was so pale, after being struck against the car window several times, a beautiful, deep scar appeared on the back of his delicate neck.

The general seemed to be truly enraged, even though he was suppressing his anger. His movements became more and more fierce. Ning Shu bit her lip tightly, not daring to cry.

Here it is outside.

It just hurt to be hit against the car window. He wanted to move, but then the officer mistook it for an attempt to escape. Before he could do anything, a hand grabbed him by the back of the neck.

The young man had his back turned to Fu Shaoshuai.

Then a heavy body pressed down on me....

I don't know how long it took.

The car window was opened by a hand, dissipating some of the smell inside.

His youthful, fair skin bore several marks. He gently pulled his clothes up to cover his pale body.

Fu Shaoshuai only opened one button on his clothes throughout the whole process.

He was dressed completely, except for a few places.

He stared at the youth's movements with those sapphire blue eyes, a touch icy and aloof. Then he reached out and grasped the throbbing red mark on the back of his neck where it had been hit hard.

Ning Shu slowly regained her composure, but the soreness all over her body remained unchanged.

He raised his hand, not wanting the general to see how embarrassed he was. He spoke softly: " ...Has Young Master calmed down"

Fu Sinian tightened his grip on the back of her neck.

Ning Shu's lips paled.

Fu Sian lowered his eyes, looking at the young man beneath him. Then, his thin lips moved slightly, and he spoke in a cold voice: "Your father has offended the Zhang family. In Linhai, only I can save him."

Ning Shu's mind went blank for a moment, then she showed a puzzled expression. She remembered that her father had offended a businessman surnamed Li five years ago. The businessman had been doing increasingly well in recent years and had even changed his name.

Ning's father was caught off guard for a moment, which allowed the other party to take advantage of him.

He thought so, and said so.

Fu Sinian seemed to smile faintly, with a hint of mockery in his eyes, whether laughing at his foolishness or simply amused.

He pinched his chin, his icy fingers trailing softly across it.

"If Li Heng wasn't backed by someone, could he alone have taken over the business to the point of reaching the customs"

Ning Shu was flustered by his straightforward words.

He was never cut out for business and didn't quite understand the intricacies of it. Even when he was alive, Ning's father had no intention of handing over the family company to him but rather to Ning Xi.

Even though Ning Xi was unwell, Ning's father had no such intentions.

But Ning Shu was not stupid, and she immediately thought of the key question.

Even though they are relying on a powerful connection, the Ning family is not just an ordinary business. They wouldn't tacitly accept Li Heng's actions unless they also benefitted from it.

He let out a soft sigh.

Zhangjia's influence in Linhai is also considerable. Even if Fu Shaoshuai has a long reach, it's impossible for one hand to cover the sky. Linhai is so vast that some places are beyond his control.

"How can the young marshal help me"

The general seemed to see the thoughts in his mind and, instead of getting angry, just calmly said: "I naturally have a way."

His words shifted, those obsidian eyes bore down on him with a hint of aggression, lifting the youth's chin and saying, "Just wondering if Young Master Ning would be interested in making a deal"

Ning Shu's eyelashes fluttered lightly. The reason why she hadn't immediately gone to find Fu Shaoshuai before was...

First, he was unsure if Fu Sian would help the Ning family with this trouble; he had no guarantee.

At that time, his aunt asked him if he knew Fu Sian.

At that time, Ning Shu had a moment of daze. He went to ask Fu Shunan for help, would the other party help What was his relationship with Fu Shao-shuai, what was Ning's family's big trouble

Why would the military officer help him

Their relationship, and Fu Sinian's feelings for her, were nothing more than fleeting infatuation at the banquet.

And Ning Shu's repeated act of pushing and pulling was nothing more than for the sake of the mission.

He didn't know how Fu Shennian would respond if he opened his mouth.

Is it a refusal, or an agreement to help

Ning Shu doesn't know.

He still doesn't quite understand why he would rather go to the pawnshop in a daze than ask Fu Shaoshuai for help.

Maybe he knows, deep down he just doesn't want to admit it.

What trade

The young man opened his mouth slightly, at this point. He had no other options left. He could only trust the person in front of him.

Actually, there isn't that deep of a connection between Ning Shu and the Ning family.

He could just watch the Ning family and not help. Then focus on completing his task, needing only to concentrate on how to conquer Fu Sian.

Everything in the Ning family has nothing to do with him.

But Ning Shu thought that although Father Ning wasn't his biological father, he even placed some expectations on him. But Father Ning had been kind to him in this family. And Mother Ning, Mother Ning didn't have much affection for the original owner either.

After he came back, he treated him just as tenderly as his own son.

If the Ning family falls, Mama will have no one to rely on in Linhai. She's all alone and has long regarded the Ning family as the most important thing in her life.

Ning Shu felt that she probably couldn't stand back and watch coldly.

"Marry me and be the mistress of Shao Shuai's manor."

The general's deep voice came over.

Ning Shu's heart skipped a beat, he looked up. Meeting the general's pair of ink-blue eyes, after a long while, he opened his mouth and heard his own voice say: "Okay, I agree."

"Master Ning Si, are you sure you don't want to consider it"

The general paused, his voice carrying a hint of chill as he extended his hand and pressed it down. He then grasped the man's chin, uttering in a tone that was both ambiguous and threatening: "Everyone in Linhai will know that Young Master Ning has married me."

Ning Shu met the general's gaze and nodded calmly, "So what if I do."

Fu Sian's ice-blue eyes stared at him, a faint voice saying: "Not only that, Master Ning Si also has to fulfill his own obligations every day."

The general lowered his head and gently wiped his skin with his finger: "Sleep for me. You'll only do that when you bear a child."

"No matter where you go, out in the world, you will always be Shao Shuai Fu's wife, my Fu Sian's wife."

That warlord's decisive, icy aura pressed down heavily.

Ning Shu met the general's gaze and said, "I know."

After all, the Fourth Master had no other choice. Fu Sian lowered his eyes to look at him, his handsome face was unusually cold and aloof, yet at this moment, a look appeared that even young men couldn't understand.

"Unless I die, you will be the mistress of my manor for your whole life."

The general finally sent him back to the Ning family. When they got off the car...

The man lifted his leg and tied the copper coin with the red string onto it, saying, "Ning Si Shao, don't lose this in the future."

Those icy fingers traced over the youth's skin, bringing a shiver of goosebumps.

The general raised his head, the deep blue eyes under his military cap sinking: "Otherwise, you wouldn't have been let off so easily today."

Ning Shu pursed her lips, feeling the copper coin on her ankle. It held a faint warmth, like that of a military officer, pressing against her skin. Her heart throbbed with a strange tingling sensation, making her feel as if blood was rushing to her head.

I don't know why, but I felt the copper coin fall heavily again from afar. My originally restless heart also settled down with it.

The young man was picked up from the waist by the military officer.

Ning Shu clutched the man's clothes, a touch of something different in her eyes than usual.

.....

Tonight, something big happened at the Ning family.

Mr. Ning Si was sent back by Fu Shen, and then he had a conversation with his father in the study about something unknown.

After someone leaves.

Ning's father had a huge temper that night.

Although the aunts didn't know what happened, they guessed it had something to do with Ning Shu.

Ning's father called the person in.

Not until midday did the door to the study open.

The aunt stood at the door, seeing the young man, she couldn't help but be a little flustered. Then she recovered her usual appearance and said: "Go back to your room first, I'll go in and see your father."

Ning Shu was taken aback, but then she realized that the mistress probably heard their conversation.

He told his father, Ning's father, that he was going to marry Fu Sian. However, Ning's father thought their Ning family didn't need to make their son sell himself and marry into the Marshal Fu's mansion.

They can't afford to lose face.

Ning Shudao: "Father, this is my own volition."

When Ning's father finished listening, he became even angrier and smashed everything in the study. Ning Shu was hit in the face by something, and only then did Ning's father calm down a little. However, he still refused to speak to him properly, just telling him to go out first.

He nodded to his great-aunt.

As he turned to leave, the eldest mistress called out to him: "Is it for the Ning family You and the Young Marshal... weren't you..."

She vaguely felt that Shaoshuai's identity, why he singled out the Fourth Master of the Ning family and looked at him differently, and had invited him out many times.

The aunt's mistress opened her mouth, thinking that there wasn't a single woman in the Shao Shuai mansion, and she was terrified.

She had never seen anything like it - men with men. After all, in this coastal town, not only would something like that be unheard of, even a hint of scandal amongst the locals would spread like wildfire.

It's no wonder Ning's father was furious.

Fu Shaoshuai sitting in that position, naturally not many people dared to speak to him. But the Ning family... she couldn't help but sigh.elt like she was in the ocean, grasping for anything to hold onto but finding nothing.Until someone poured water down his throat.Ning Shu's consciousness had recovered somewhat, but then it was as if...
