My Foolish Husband Turned Out to Have a Hidden Identity Too-Chapter 994 - 997: Zi Qianjing’s Crisis (Part 1)

Shu Ning gazed into Jin Kai’s eyes, brimming with genuine emotion, and sneered coldly: "Jin Kai, just like a shattered mirror that can’t be mended, some mistakes once made, can never have another chance. I can’t forgive your past actions!"

It was like a heavy hammer, harshly striking Jin Kai’s chest. His hand fell weakly, and he took a few steps back, painfully closing his eyes.

"Not even one chance?"

Shu Ning glanced at him, shook her head, and said no more, walking past Jin Kai.

At that moment, Jin Kai wished to reach out and hold her tightly, yet ultimately, he remained powerless...

Inside the room, Zi Qianjing raised his eyes, glancing at the woman who walked in from outside. His smile was lazy and unrestrained, with an indescribable meaning.

"I heard everything you said just now..."

Shu Ning paused, but said nothing.

"If..." Zi Qianjing paused, "you need assistance with anything, you can come to me. You saved my life; no matter what, I will help you..."

"You should nurse your injuries first," Shu Ning said calmly, her gaze sweeping across Zi Qianjing’s handsome face, "Right now, even protecting yourself is an issue."

Zi Qianjing’s words halted, and a dangerous glint flashed across his slightly narrowed eyes, his lips curling into a faint smile: "Are you...underestimating me? I have the strength to return a favor, so if you need anything, feel free to come to me for help."

Shu Ning said no more, her expression so calm that she seemed uninterested in Jin Kai’s words.

"I’m leaving my room for you, I’ll sleep in the adjacent one, so if you’re having trouble moving, just call me."

Trouble moving?

Zi Qianjing coughed twice, a bitter smile on his lips, since when had he fallen to such a state? Suddenly, Zi Qianjing thought of Mu Ruyue; if his mother were here, one elixir could solve all the problems...

Shu Ning said nothing more, gave Zi Qianjing one last look, and then stepped out. Her elegant silhouette, like a serene chrysanthemum, gradually disappeared from his eyes.

Watching the departing figure of the woman, Zi Qianjing’s gaze became slightly unfocused.

Undeniably, this woman possessed a calming aura, under which his heart surprisingly became tranquil, as if immersed in a field of flowers, embraced by the serene atmosphere...

...

In the hall, Su Zhen was conversing with an elder beside him. He was caught off guard upon seeing the figure strolling in the morning light. He paused for a moment, forcing a smile.

"Shu Ning, come and meet the Yuan Family Patriarch."

The Yuan Family, once on par with the Su Family’s power, however, not too long ago, the Yuan Family established connections with the Beimo Palace, boosting its strength significantly. The patriarch Yuan Luoxin unexpectedly advanced from the Element to the Spiritual Origin Realm...

So now, the Su Family can only look up to the Yuan Family.

However, the Yuan Family’s young master Yuan Lin accidentally took a fancy to Shu Ning. Perhaps this is an opportunity to curry favor with the Yuan Family, so how could he give up such a golden opportunity?

As long as they marry into the Yuan Family, wouldn’t the Su Family surely win over the Beimo Palace?

Even though the Yuan Family’s young master is innately brutal, sacrificing one woman for the future of the Su Family is minor. Surely, for the sake of the whole Su Family, she would not refuse...

Shu Ning furrowed her brows tightly, the Yuan Family Patriarch’s intentions she had more or less understood...
