Jiuning smiled self-deprecatingly. She thought she was very open-minded and didn't care about her family. But when they met face to face, she was still affected by family affection and there was still a trace of greed in her heart.

Now you can give up! If you don't take your heart back, you will become unlike yourself.

Jiu Ning turned around and walked out of the mansion. It didn't matter where he went, he just didn't want to stay here.

Just after Jiu Ning turned and left, Jiang Yuanbai looked at the corner again. There was nothing there, just like his heart at the moment, empty and panicked.

He frowned and raised his hand to touch his heart. He felt that the sun today was not warm at all.

He glanced at the corner again, then turned around and continued talking to his daughter. She had just returned today, so he couldn't ignore her.

Jiu Ning staggered out of the Jiang Mansion and wandered aimlessly among the crowd.

She had no home, no place to live, no money, no familiar friends in the capital, and she didn't know where to go.

But my body was getting more and more tired, the injury on my back started to hurt again, and my vision was getting blurry.

Whatever, no matter how bad it is, Jiu Ning let go of his senses and let everything develop freely.

With a plop, Jiuning, dressed in white, fell to the side of the road.

"Sir, look, isn't there a woman lying on the side of the road ahead..."

After Xue Fangfei separated from Jiang Yuanbai, she called Tong'er to her side and said, "Have you seen Jiu Ning? She shouldn't be walking around casually!"

"You didn't see it either? I thought my sister told you when she left!"

Tong'er stood up anxiously: "No, I have to go out and look for her. She doesn't know anyone in the capital, where else can she go?"

Xue Fangfei wondered if the memories of today made Jiu Ning uncomfortable.

She shouldn't have reminisced with Jiang Yuanbo even though she knew Jiu Ning was there. "Go ask the Duke of Su's mansion. She only knows the Duke of Su. Maybe she went to his place?"

"Okay, I'll go right away. You just wait for news at the mansion."

After saying that, Tong'er ran out in a hurry...

"What? Jiuning is missing? When did this happen?" Xiao Heng heard this news as soon as he came out of the interrogation room.

As soon as he came back, he started interrogating Master Qin. It was because of him that they went to Mount Qingcheng.

Young Master Qin was caught on the spot, and his face was full of dissatisfaction, but no physical evidence was found at the time.

Luckily, they were hiding under a tree when the miracle happened and saw the turned-up soil. The boy was quite smart and he almost dodged it.

According to his confession, he and Yang Song from the Salt and Iron Bureau split the money from selling salt 50-50. That's great, because the Salt and Iron Bureau... was just worried that they had no leverage over him!

But as soon as he came out, he heard that the person was missing, and he didn't know what had happened to her.

"It's getting dark, I'll send someone to look for it!" Oh! One day can really cause trouble.

The next day, the sky was bright and Jiuning seemed to be trapped in the clouds. It was so comfortable that she didn't want to wake up.

"My lady, are you awake? I've prepared some water for you to wash up."

Jiuning was suddenly awakened by the unfamiliar voice. She remembered that she seemed to have fallen on the roadside yesterday and it was that kind-hearted person who saved her.

She suddenly sat up, startling the maid. Jiu Ning smiled apologetically and said, "Excuse me, who saved me? I want to thank you in person."

The maid looked the man up and down, then put on a smile and said flatteringly, "This is the Li Mansion. My master is Prime Minister Li, and the one who saved you is the second young master of the mansion, Li Lian."

Jiuning nodded in understanding, and she looked around inconspicuously.

The room was spacious and bright, with someone serving her. The bedding was brand new, and she had changed all her clothes.

"Madam, your previous clothes are dirty. This is the new one my young master bought for you. Please try it on and see if it fits you well."

The maid was holding a tray with a lavender brocade dress on it and a few headdresses next to it. It was prepared with great care.

She was helped by the maid to change her clothes, which fit her well. The long hairpin made her look more dignified.

As soon as Jiu Ning went out, he saw a young man in gorgeous clothes standing in the yard with his back to the door.

He slowly turned around when he heard the voice, but was stunned when he saw her. She hated the other person's lustful eyes staring at her.

Li Lian originally wanted to show off in front of the beauty, but the woman in front of him was even more beautiful than yesterday.

Her purple dress fluttered in the wind, making her look like an ethereal being. Her long eyelashes fluttered like a small fan on her fair and smooth round face.

"Young Master, you saved me yesterday?" Jiu Ning interrupted the stunned gaze.

Li Lian smiled foolishly, and when the other person spoke, the dimples on his face sank deeply into him.

"Young Master...Young Master?"

"Ahem! I saw my wife collapsed on the roadside yesterday, and I don't know where she lives. I can only bring her back to the mansion first. Do you want to send someone to notify your family?"

Li Lian put away his silly smile and looked gentle, but his eyes never left Jiuning.

"Thank you very much for your help, sir. There's no need to inform anyone, as I don't know anyone in the capital."

Jiu Ning didn't want to hide it. Her identity was easy to check. After all, she was still wearing the clothes of the Zhennu Hall.

"Then why not, my lady, stay in the mansion first. You can leave on your own when arrangements are made!"

He wanted to force her to stay, but after seeing her, he changed his strategy. Such a good woman could only be his, and he was in the mood to take it slow.

Jiu Ning felt a chill when he saw the determined look on the other person's face. Although the other person's tone was negotiating, what he revealed in his bones was that he could not be refuted.

Since she had nowhere to go anyway, she might as well stay here and think of a solution later.

"Thank you, sir. I will stay here for ten days. I will move out once I find a place to live."

Li Lian's attitude softened. "My lady is injured, and the doctor said she needs to rest and recuperate. This place is quiet and serene, and no one will disturb you. Please feel free to stay here."

"I still have to go to school. If you need anything, you can ask the maid to do it."

Jiuning leaned forward and saluted: "Thank you for your help."

After Li Lian left, she found an excuse to send the maid away. Jiu Ning sat on the bed and began to look through the martial arts secrets in her mind.

Just looking at the name made her confused for a long time. No wonder her head hurt so much at that time. It was too much.

It's better to bite off more than you can chew, so I first chose an internal martial arts technique, the Jade Girl Heart Sutra, and then an escape skill, Lingbo Weibu.

However, she couldn't quite understand the words on it, so she had to slow down her internal energy training for a while.

Jiuning started walking in the house according to the steps in his mind. At first, he was really clumsy, but as he became more proficient, he walked faster and faster.

Gradually, she began to feel that the venue was too small and she could not perform well. Her only regret was that she could not fly.
