The Whole Dynasty Spoils the Tyrant's Beloved Youngest Daughter-Chapter 344 - 254: If I Die, You Die Too

"I advise you not to go. I might suffer a bit, but if I dig through the night, I can surely get it done in a month."

"Ye Ying, stop persuading, I’m leaving." Jun Ning didn’t listen to Ye Ying’s advice and walked away.

Not long after, Jun Ning came back, bringing along eight or nine tall, dark-skinned girls. Judging by their hair buns, they all seemed unmarried.

Yet, each of them had large, somewhat rough hands, suggesting that they were no strangers to hard work.

Working was no issue for them.

Ye Ying, curious about where Jun Ning found so many girls, heard Jun Ning babbling nonsense to them.

"My brother loves hardworking and capable women. If you work hard, maybe he’ll fancy one of you and marry one of you as his wife..."

"You just need to help him with the work; when the work is done, and the well is dug, he’ll definitely keep his word and choose one of you to marry."

"This work is his test for you."

As Jun Ning spoke, his gaze swept over the eight or nine girls, accompanied by a meaningful smile.

Seeing Jun Ning’s smile, the girls’ hearts were all aflutter, their imaginations running wild.

Would Jun Ning’s brother choose them?

They had long heard that Jun Ning’s brother was extraordinarily brave, more skilled than the second in command at hunting. Most importantly, he was incredibly handsome and dashing.

No man in their village could compare to him.

Just as their grandmothers used to say, if such a man were to choose one of them and marry her, she would surely feel like she’s fallen into a honeypot and enjoy endless blessings with him for the rest of her life.

Which girl doesn’t hope for a good marriage in this world?

Faced with this temptation from Ye Ying, no one could resist.

All these girls wanted to marry Ye Ying.

And now, with such a good opportunity, they had to seize it well.

Not only should they grasp it well themselves, but they should also call upon their fathers, mothers, brothers, and sisters to help, to exchange it for a good marriage.

"I’ll call my brother to help!"

"I’ll call my dad."

"I’ll call my grandfather."

"I have no dad, no mom, no grandfather, it’s just me. I’ll work harder, be more diligent, and hope that Jun Ning’s brother will choose me as his wife."

...

Each girl chatted away, some going to call people, others diving into work.

All were extremely dedicated and enthusiastic.

Ye Ying wasn’t working alone anymore, but the cost of his sacrifice was pretty high.

He was swarmed by a group of girls!

Ever since he heard Jun Ning’s nonsense, Ye Ying’s face turned darker than the bottom of a pot, looking quite intimidating. His hand seemed to dig the soil with more of a murderous intent.

But the girls around couldn’t see his anger, only feeling that he was mighty and powerful, swinging the hoe with impressive strength!

The girls surrounded Ye Ying, all secretly admiring him.

Ye Ying was so angry he could spit blood.

Jun Ning picked up a cat from beside his feet, played with it, and enjoyed the scene.

An old lady came over with melon seeds and fruits to please her, hoping she would speak a few good words for her granddaughter, leading to a great marriage.

Jun Ning lay not far from the well-digging site, watching the crowd dig enthusiastically, his lips curling into a smile.

Ye Ying was bombarded by questions from the group of girls until his face turned green. Just listen; these girls were asking the most curious questions!

"Brother Ye, do you think I’m good at work? Do you like it?"

"Brother Ye, do you think I have great strength? Do you like that?"

Not subtle at all, one after another.

Ye Ying was about to go crazy from all the questioning.

"Brother Ye, answer us! Do you actually like it?" one girl persisted when Ye Ying didn’t respond.

Ye Ying still didn’t answer, but he muttered in his heart, "If I like you, even if you’re lazy, I’d still like you. If I don’t like you, even if you have great strength and can flatten that mountain over there, I still won’t like you."

The girls, not getting an answer, thought they hadn’t worked hard enough, so they worked even harder.

Work that could be done in a month was completed in half a month.

The well started to yield water after digging over twenty meters, producing a lot of water.

Seeing this, everyone was astonished.

They truly believed that digging the well was Ye Ying and Jun Ning’s way of testing them to find a capable girl for Ye Ying to marry and take home. They didn’t expect that it was genuinely for digging a well for the village’s benefit. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

The entire village was thrilled, cheering.

They had water now and no longer needed to go far, far into the mountains to get it. They didn’t have to be frugal with water anymore; they had a well.

Jun Ning was overjoyed and proceeded to teach them how to use a wooden bucket to draw water from the well to save some strength.

Ye Ying taught the village leader how to hunt, even personally making some traps and hunting tools, then prepared to leave Black Water Village swiftly.

If he didn’t leave soon, he felt the village girls might devour him.

...

Crown Prince’s bedroom, Sairu City.

The Eldest Prince stormed into the Crown Prince’s Palace, sword in hand, demanding, "Where is Princess Anle? Where exactly are you hiding her? Hand her over quickly, or I’ll kill you..."

Now, Jun Ning hadn’t been seen for a month. No one knew where she went, nor if she was safe.

As the person responsible for Jun Ning’s safety, the Eldest Prince knew that the Imperial City had already been informed of her disappearance.

Emperor Yongning gave him a five-day deadline to find her, which had long passed without success.

The Imperial Decree for punishment arrived today. If he still didn’t find her by today, there was no escaping severe punishment.

Given Emperor Yongning’s regard for Jun Ning, the Eldest Prince wouldn’t be lightly punished.

His ending would be grim.

He feared for his life.

He was indeed becoming desperate.

"Crown Prince, speak up! If I can’t survive, neither can you escape."

"We die together."

"Ha, who’s afraid of whom, huh?"
