My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 1963: Begging Him to Save Her
Yet, this Fengye Ningyuan before him, though keeping a calm demeanor, seemed to him to be avoiding the main issue, deliberately sidestepping the question.
"I naturally believe in the words of the General." Ji Lingkong smiled slightly, then his tone suddenly turned icy, "But I will definitely uncover the truth. Those people who dared to harm my mother, no matter who they are, my Helian Clan will ensure they pay for it in full!"
The tone, sinister and fierce, left no doubt that the malice in his words would surely be realized.
Fengye Ningyuan squinted his eyes slightly, this troublesome and annoying young man indeed embodied the style of that old fellow, both father and son were not to be offended lightly, but it was too late to not offend them. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
This Helian Lingkong was indeed very sharp, but he was likely only guessing or testing him, perhaps without any real evidence.
His plan for tonight was not yet complete and could not be derailed by him.
Fengye Ningyuan tilted his head to look at Jun Yiyi, noticing her gaze was fixed on Ji Lingkong, with a somewhat indignant expression, slightly surprised—did this girl know this young man?
She was just an ordinary woman from Yalan Country, she shouldn’t know a noble young man with Helian Lingkong’s status.
However, this girl seemed not to be as simple as she appeared; in any case, she was a hot potato to be quickly shaken off, which was his second objective for that night.
Push Jun Yiyi out forcefully, to prevent her from getting entangled with his son Wuyin, causing trouble for the family and the boy.
And Zhao Zhixuan, as the heir to a major conglomerate in another country, with immense influence within that nation, was an ideal match for a political marriage.
This matter was naturally being kept secret from Fengye Wuyin, but he had no concerns; the boy would surely get angry, but only temporarily, as the girl wasn’t that important to Wuyin, and he couldn’t really fall in love with her.
So even if he truly sold her out, he wouldn’t do anything substantial.
Besides, Fengye Ningyuan wasn’t worried about him showing up to make trouble, knowing that Wuyin despised this stepmother by his side the most, and would never appear where she was present.
"I have more to discuss with this Major General Helian; you ladies surely won’t find it interesting to listen." Fengye Ningyuan said, glancing towards the lady and Jun Yiyi.
The lady nodded knowingly: "I will go entertain the other female guests, and Yiyi, you can go dance and chat with Mr. Zhao!"
"That would be perfect, I was just thinking of inviting Miss Yiyi for a date to get to know her better." Zhao Zhixuan’s eyes seemed to gleam with a wolf-like light, looking at Jun Yiyi as if eyeing a delicious lamb, full of eagerness.
Fengye Ningyuan laughed, "Then you better seize the opportunity, our beautiful foster daughter here is quite popular, and there are many who wish to win her over." With that, he glanced suggestively at the men around, itching to make a move, showing great interest in Jun Yiyi.
Zhao Zhixuan got the hint; it was a nudge to act quickly and win her over. Otherwise, once the chance is gone, others would surely make their move, like a pack of wolves eyeing her!
Indeed, with such beautiful black hair, and such high-quality fertility, surely a prize to be fiercely contested—having the opportunity alone, if he didn’t take action, someone else surely would.
Jun Yiyi’s face turned sour; no, she didn’t want to be alone with that fat guy. A glance told her he was up to no good.
But she couldn’t ignore the deadly threat from Fengye Ningyuan—what should she do? She was about to walk into the lion’s den.
In her anxious state, a profoundly textured gaze fell upon her. Looking over, she saw Ji Lingkong looking down at her with a chilly presence, filled with a ridiculing gaze, clearly suggesting: Beg me, and I will save you!
