Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The veins on Ning Shi’s forehead bulged as he pulled out his belt. “I shouldn’t have brought you back in the first place! How dare you spout nonsense!”

As he spoke, he swung his belt at Ning Xiang’s head.

Ning Xiang dodged it effortlessly. She grabbed the belt and pulled it. Ning Shi lost his balance and fell flat on his face.

This was what the butler saw when he came in.

“Master.” The butler glanced at Ning Xiang. When he passed by her, he deliberately bumped into her. He squatted down and helped Ning Shi up. As if he was showing off, he said loudly, “Mr. Fu will be at the old residence in five minutes. He said that he wants to finalize the marriage.”

Ning Lian said in surprise, “Married? Isn’t it an engagement?”

The butler smiled and said, “Miss Ning is smart and beautiful and is famous in the capital. Perhaps the Fu family is afraid that someone will take a fancy to such an outstanding person, so they decided to settle the marriage as soon as possible.”

Ning Shi was overjoyed. The embarrassment and anger from before were swept away. He casually patted the dust off his body and turned to Zhao He. “The two of us will welcome him together. Lianlian is just a girl and it’s unsuitable for her to come along, so she can stay here.”

His gaze landed on Ning Xiang again. He frowned and said coldly to the butler. “Lock her upstairs. Nothing can go wrong with President Fu’s marriage to Lianlian!”

The Fu family was an important clan and owned a huge business. In theory, the Ning family did not run in the same circles as them. However, the elders in both families had made arrangements for them to be engaged when they were young.

No one would blame them if the Fu family didn’t comply, but they didn’t expect Fu Ze to really agree.

He even skipped the engagement and wanted to get married directly.

It was as if a pancake had fallen into their mouths.

The two of them left in a hurry. The butler pulled Ning Xiang’s arm and wanted to go upstairs, but Ning Xiang dodged him.

Ning Xiang’s expression turned completely cold. “Don’t touch me.”

“It’s okay. Looking at his attitude, the marriage is already set in stone and nothing she does can change it. Let her stay.”

The butler looked at Ning Lian and left.

Ning Lian relaxed on the sofa and looked at Ning Xiang like a victor.

“I know you like Fu Ze too, but families like ours care about status a lot. Fu Ze and I were childhood sweethearts and are equally outstanding. As for you, you’re just a country bumpkin who’s hated by your family. It’s best if you don’t have any fantasies that you shouldn’t have.”

Ning Lian looked at her nails and said arrogantly, “But I’m a kind person, and you’re my sister in name, so I’ll allow you to stay here and watch Fu Ze propose to me.”

Ning Xiang stared at Ning Lian for a while and suddenly smiled. “Thank you so much.”

“Come, President Fu, this way.” Ning Shi smiled warmly and fawned over someone much younger than him. “Lianlian heard that you were coming and spent a long time dressing up.”

The door opened, and a tall and handsome man entered the living room surrounded by people. His hawk-like eyes locked onto Ning Xiang, and he nodded at her with a faint smile.

It was this woman who left her bank card and left after a good night.

Ning Lian thought that he was looking at her, so she came up to him with a red face. She bit her lip and looked at him with watery eyes. “Do you know that I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time?”

Fu Ze disregarded her, walked past Ning Lian, and sat down beside Ning Xiang instead.

Ning Lian froze on the spot.

Ning Shi gritted his teeth and asked the butler in a low voice, “Why is she still here?”

Fu Ze’s assistant smiled and said, “I’m glad Miss Ning’s home. Otherwise, we can’t settle the situation.”

Hearing this, Ning Lian was relieved. There was only one Miss Ning in the Ning family, and that was her.

“Ning Xiang, we have some business to settle here. Don’t you have something to do? Just leave.” Ning Shi’s eyes were filled with threat.

The assistant felt puzzled and quickly said, “It’s okay. It won’t take up too much time anyway. She can always leave after the discussion.”

This time, even a fool could tell what was going on.

Ning Shi was confused. “Did you make a mistake?”

Zhao He’s smile froze on her face. “President Fu, what do you mean? Didn’t you agree to get engaged to Lianlian? Why…”

Assistant Xiao glanced at Ning Lian with disdain in his eyes. He smiled and said, “There’s no mistake. Our CEO is marrying the legitimate eldest daughter of the Ning family, Ning Xiang.”

Ning Shi glared at him fiercely. “I’m talking to President Fu. Why are you interrupting?”

Xiao Su’s expression turned cold. “Please show some respect. President Fu does not have to explain everything personally.”

Ning Lian was on the verge of tears. She grabbed the corner of her dress and sobbed, “Is that so? So you’ve been lying to me since we were young?”

Fu Ze tapped the leather sofa lightly with his fingertips. His dark eyes were cold and intimidating as he looked at the pretentious Ning family without any emotions.

It was only when all their clamoring emotions had subsided that the man slowly said, “Lie to you? Ning Xiang is a real member of the family, and you are just an orphan girl brought here from the orphanage. I don’t know why you think that you can marry into our family. Since you’re here today, I want to make things clear.”

He held Ning Xiang’s hand. Ning Xiang struggled but could not break free.

“She will become my legal wife,” Fu Ze said lazily. “Any other questions?”

Ning Lian stared at their intertwined fingers. A dark light flashed in her eyes, but when she looked up again, she still looked weak and emotional.
