The resentful best friend travels through daily life
Chapter 181 Knowing the Truth
Regardless of how powerful the Duke of Zhenguo is now, the Bai family alone is at its peak.
"You, are you really the legitimate son of the Duke of Zhenguo, Qi Ji?" Su Er asked in disbelief.
Qi Ji hid the disdain in his eyes and said, "Seriously, this kind of thing will be clear once you investigate it. It can't be faked."
"But, isn't that the legitimate son in the rumors?"
Qi Ji said slowly: "I think you know more about the things in the mansion than I do. But there is one thing: I am still alive, and the Bai family is also alive."
Qi Ji added, "A Zhao is from the side branch of the Bai family. Although he is not a royal relative, he has studied and practiced martial arts since he was a child, and is no worse than others. With the support of the Bai family, A Zhao naturally has a bright future. He and Ning have been childhood sweethearts since they were young. How can they not be considered a good match?"
"You think so?"
Su Er is not stupid. According to rumors, the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo, Qi Ji, is weak and sickly and will not live past the age of eighteen, so everyone turned their attention to that son.
Now Qi Ji is not only alive, but also living well. With the support of the Bai family, there is no guarantee that he will not inherit the mantle of the Duke of Zhenguo in the future.
This is really a tough call.
"Look, are Ning and Zhao still having an affair without a matchmaker?"
Although Qi Ji's voice was gentle, it carried great lethality.
Su Er turned around and slapped Su Rudong, scolding her harshly, "You evil girl, you believed everything you heard and trusted outsiders. Why don't you apologize to Ah Ning now?"
Su Rudong thought: If things don't work out, then he's going to beat her up? He's really incompetent.
She suppressed her disgust and anger towards Su Er and bowed to Zhou Ning: "A Ning, I was wrong. I shouldn't have believed other people's slander. I will let you deal with me as you wish."
Su Rudong's voice is so soft that it makes people feel more pity for him unconsciously.
"Oh? Other people's slander? Which other people said what slander?" Although Zhou Ning was smiling, his eyes were cold and his tone was pressing, as if he wanted to force Su Rudong into a dead end.
Su Rudong tightly grasped his handkerchief, forced a smile, and said, "A Ning, you are still young, and you may not understand one truth - always keep some things in reserve so that we can meet again in the future."
Zhou Ning sneered: "So you also know this truth. I thought your principle of doing things was to never give others a chance to breathe if you can crush them to death."
Su Rudong bent her knees when she saw this, but Zhou Ning predicted her movement and kicked her on the knee, preventing her from bending any further.
Su Rudong took a breath of cold air and looked at Zhou Ning, only to see her say directly, "Don't use that moral blackmail on me, is it okay or not?"
Zhou Ning spoke very directly, and Su Er couldn't stand it anymore, but so what?
You have to listen even if you don't want to, because they have the leverage over you.
Zhou Ning looked at Su Da and saw that Su Da looked calm, so he said, "I don't want to say anything more. I know exactly what you two are planning. You don't have to act in front of me."
"Especially you, Su Er, don't put all the blame on your daughter when something goes wrong. This really makes you look incompetent."
Zhou Ning called Su Er's name directly, but she felt sorry for her now and couldn't find any fault with her, so she could only hold back her anger.
Su Rudong was surprised. Although Zhou Ning's words were irritating, when she and he were on the same side, her words were very comfortable.
Su Er didn't dare to breathe because of Zhou Ning's scolding. Others didn't know about it, but Su Rudong was very happy.
This old man should find someone with a sharp tongue like this to teach him a lesson.
Shen You tried to hold back her laughter and her face turned red.
Zhou Ning pulled Bai Zhao's sleeve and said to Su Er in a calm voice, "Be angry, be mad, I am so powerful. Not only am I proficient in medicine and beautiful, but I also found a man from the Bai family as my husband. I won't let you catch any evidence against me."
Zhou Ning's voice clearly did not show much emotion, but it always pierced Su Er's heart like a sharp sword.
Commonly known as - broken defense.
"Oh, I can't bear it."
As Zhou Ning continued to sarcastically mock him, Su Er seemed less angry.
This sharp-tongued girl is exactly the same as Su Mingxia back then.
In that case, you should reunite in the underworld like your short-lived mother.
Shen You has always had a keen intuition. Su Er still had the same expression, and there was no murderous intent on her face, but she just felt inexplicably -
There is a situation.
Finally, Su Da came out to make a closing statement and said to Su Er, "Second Brother, I know what you have been planning all along. I originally wanted to pass the position of the head of the family to Rudong."
Su Rudong was even more shocked, what?
The position of the head of the family is not to be passed on to his younger brother, but to... her?
Su Er was also shocked, and said half-heartedly: "Brother, you actually..."
Suda waved his hand and said, "The competent shall prevail, regardless of gender."
"But above all else, one should also have noble character, like Dong. You are far from that."
Su Rudong was greatly shocked and didn't know how to react for a moment. She had been well versed in the ways of the world since childhood, but for the first time she was at a loss.
"Okay, let's all go back. Ning and Wan will stay here."
Su Da gave the order to expel the guests, and the rest had to leave, leaving only Zhou Ning and Zhou Wan.
Zhou Ning ate and made some tea while listening to the old man's narration: "I am old, and this Su family needs a new owner..."
Zhou Wan is a sentimental person, and she still has memories of Su Mingxia, so she naturally treats Su Daru like her grandfather whom she has known since childhood.
"Grandpa, if you are not old, you will still have to see Aning get married and watch my children grow up." Zhou Wan wiped her tears. She felt sorry for Su Da who had to worry about the younger generation at his age, but she felt even more sorry for Aning who had to be schemed against at such a young age.
Zhou Ning became more cautious. Child?
I stopped giving Shen Zhong the medicine a few days ago. According to their physical conditions, they should be able to get pregnant soon. We have to be careful these days.
"Aning, do you want to try for the position of head of the family?" Suda asked.
Zhou Ning shook her head and refused directly: "I don't want to."
Suda didn't give up: "Maybe we can give it a try?"
Seeing this, Zhou Wan knelt in front of Su Da and said, "Grandfather, although Ning knows right from wrong and has a strong character, she is used to being free and can't live a life that is restricted."
"She is living a good life now. I really can't bear to see her being schemed against like this for the position of the head of the family. She has no peace day and night."
"Grandfather, I understand your hardship and difficulties, but...A Ning has had a hard life too. She has never seen her father and mother since she was a child. Before she was ten years old, she was even a fool. The life she has now is not easy to come by. I hope you can let her live a peaceful and happy life for the sake of her mother."
Fool……
Sister, you don't have to be so honest.
After this conversation, I don’t know whether Suda was moved or not, but Aning’s defense was broken anyway.
So I am so miserable in the eyes of others?
