101: Duan Zhengchun's questioning, sad Qin Hongmian!

Ning Yuan looked at Duan Zhengchun with a big smile on his face, while simultaneously reaching under the table and placing Dao Baifeng's hand between his legs.

Dao Baifeng's hand trembled, but at this moment, she dared not refuse. She could only glare hatefully at Ning Yuan, lamenting in her heart, "I knew this guy had bad intentions by letting me stay. So it turns out he actually wanted me to..."

Thinking that her husband was just one wooden plank away, and unlike the last time when they were drunk, this time they were sober, made it even more intense.

While feeling flustered, Dao Baifeng also felt a peculiar sensation that she found very novel.

Feeling the warm, soft hand, Ning Yuan couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

Duan Zhengchun did not notice this, only saying with a sunken face: "Actually, besides bringing my wife back, I have another matter I wish to consult with you, Young Master Murong."

At this moment, Duan Zhengchun finally could not bring himself to say the word 'Nephew', changing it to a more distant form of address.

Dao Baifeng, under the table, couldn't help but tremble when she heard Duan Zhengchun mention her. But as Ning Yuan's hand grabbed her hair, she had no choice but to open her thin lips.

"Oh? Uncle Duan, please feel free to speak. As long as this Junior knows, I will certainly tell you everything."

Ning Yuan's expression turned solemn, and he said earnestly.

Duan Zhengchun did not waste any more time and asked directly: "I wonder if Young Master Murong is aware of the theft of the Six Meridian Divine Sword from Tianlong Temple?"

"What? The Six Meridian Divine Sword has been stolen?"

Ning Yuan looked surprised, "Could it be that Jiumozhi succeeded?"

Looking at Ning Yuan's surprised and confused expression, Duan Zhengchun snorted inwardly and continued: "Jiumozhi did not succeed, which is why he captured my son. Surely Young Master Murong hasn't heard about this from my son?"

Duan Zhengchun suddenly retorted.

This actually took Ning Yuan by surprise, and he thought to himself: Dammit, I overacted.

Since he had met Duan Yu and saved him, it was impossible for Duan Yu, as a party involved, not to tell him the reason for his capture.

If he said he didn't know now, it would only deepen Duan Zhengchun's suspicion of him.

Although Duan Zhengchun's strength was not worth mentioning to him, and even if he told Duan Zhengchun that he was the one who snatched it, Duan Zhengchun couldn't do anything to him, Ning Yuan still didn't want to resolve things with force directly.

Ning Yuan thought to himself and quickly revealed a look of surprise, "So that's why my Second Brother was being evasive with me back then. It seems my Second Brother didn't want this matter to spread and cause Dali to lose face, so he chose to hide it."

"Sigh! Why didn't he tell me? If he had told me earlier, I could have arranged for people to help him investigate. With the Beggar Clan's reach across the world, perhaps we could have found some clues."

As Ning Yuan spoke, he slapped the table, looking full of annoyance.

This gave Dao Baifeng, under the table, a fright, and she couldn't help but apply a little force, causing Ning Yuan to gasp, feeling a bit of pain.

And Dao Baifeng under the table clearly realized she had hurt Ning Yuan, so she quickly let go and blew cool air.

"So that was the reason."

Duan Zhengchun looked enlightened, but in his heart, he didn't believe a word of it. Instead, the other party's rhetoric only made his thoughts more firm.

"It seems Murong Fu really is the black-clad man who snatched the sword manual. But why did my wife say Murong Fu was always chatting with her when I asked her back then? Could it be that my wife really has... and perhaps they were already colluding when they were at the Prince Manor..."

Duan Zhengchun was in a panic. Although he really didn't want to believe it, he truly couldn't find a reason for Dao Baifeng to cover for Ning Yuan.

And he had actually suspected Murong Fu back then. The only reason he didn't suspect him in the end was because Dao Baifeng said Murong Fu was always with her. Out of trust in Dao Baifeng, he had dispelled his doubts.

But thinking about it carefully now, he realized there were many suspicious points.

But since the other party wouldn't admit it, Duan Zhengchun had no choice. If he really said everything out loud, it would mean a falling out, and whether he could leave this place would be an unknown.

Thinking this, Duan Zhengchun suppressed his impulse.

"Once I leave this place, I will definitely expose your true face to the world."

Duan Zhengchun secretly resolved.

He now had the hatred of a wife-stealer with Ning Yuan, and more than one at that. It was imaginable how intense the hatred and anger in Duan Zhengchun's heart were now.

But no matter what, he couldn't show any emotion now.

"I also believe this matter has nothing to do with you. The other reason I came today is to take my wife back to Dali."

Duan Zhengchun looked up at Ning Yuan.

If the other party didn't agree, it would mean he definitely had an affair with Dao Baifeng. If he did agree...

Regardless, he had to take Dao Baifeng away. After all, this was his own Princess. If he didn't take her away, when the time came to expose Murong Fu's true face, he would inevitably lose all face and become a laughingstock.

And Dao Baifeng, under the desk, heard Duan Zhengchun mention her and wanted to take her back to Dali. She also suddenly froze in place, a complex look appearing on her face.

Her own husband was still caring for her, yet she was almost doing things under the table right in front of him.

This made Dao Baifeng feel an unprecedented sense of shame.

Even more shameful than the night before.

"This is only right. I had originally planned to personally send Aunt Duan back to Dali in a few days. Now that Uncle Duan has come to pick her up personally, it couldn't be better. How about this, I will prepare a banquet tonight as a farewell dinner. How about you and Auntie set off together tomorrow morning?"

Ning Yuan said with a smile.

Hearing that Murong Fu actually agreed directly made Duan Zhengchun mutter in his heart, and he felt a strange sense of relief, thinking: Perhaps my wife has no relationship with Murong Fu, and she wasn't covering for him back in Dali, but was just kept in the dark herself.

Thinking this, Duan Zhengchun nodded, "Good. Then you go ahead with your work, I will go find my wife."

"Take care, Uncle."

Ning Yuan watched Duan Zhengchun disappear, then looked down and said to the person under the table: "Aunt, he's gone, you can come out safely now."

"You are simply outrageous! How could you dare to do that in front of him? If I were discovered, how could I go on living?"

Dao Baifeng finally crawled out from under the table, letting out a long breath.

Then she blamed him angrily. If she hadn't been afraid of making a scene earlier, she would never have submitted.

Her elegant face also revealed a lingering fear.

"Aunt, how was it? Wasn't it an even more extraordinary experience?"

Ning Yuan pulled her into his arms and teased.

"Extraordinary my foot, I'd rather not have it."

Dao Baifeng rolled her eyes, then revealed a complex expression, "It seems I have to leave tomorrow."

"What, are you reluctant to leave?"

Ning Yuan gently held Dao Baifeng's waist and asked playfully.

Dao Baifeng's expression was complex, but she did not deny it.

A look of grievance and sorrow couldn't help but appear on her face.

"Forget it, I should go. Perhaps Duan Zhengchun is looking for me right now. If he can't find me, he might get suspicious."

Dao Baifeng sighed softly and wanted to get up.

But this pitiful look made Ning Yuan unable to resist leaning in, "Don't worry, he might be troubled himself right now and can't leave."

Dao Baifeng pushed him away gently, "I just gave myself to you, aren't you afraid of it being dirty?"

"If you aren't afraid of it being dirty, how could I possibly dislike you?"

Ning Yuan stared into Dao Baifeng's eyes with a serious face.

Dao Baifeng was stunned, then couldn't help but show a moved expression.

Then Dao Baifeng's lips were covered. Dao Baifeng sighed inwardly, "Fine, it's the last day anyway, I'll just indulge this little beast."

Ning Yuan picked Dao Baifeng up and placed her gently on the desk. Dao Baifeng leaned back, her hands supporting her on the desk, biting her lip tightly. The white paper spread out on the desk gradually soaked through, leaving behind a masterpiece stamped with Ning Yuan's personal seal.

...

On the other side, after Duan Zhengchun left, he soon encountered Qin Hongmian.

Seeing Duan Zhengchun, Qin Hongmian suppressed her excitement and stepped forward.

"Darling Duan!"

Qin Hongmian called out softly.

But when Duan Zhengchun saw Qin Hongmian, he felt no excitement at all. His mind was filled with the scenes from the previous night, which made him feel disgusted and angry, "Why are you here?"

Duan Zhengchun asked coldly.

But Qin Hongmian didn't notice this, only sharing with a happy face: "Darling Duan, if Dao Baifeng wants to divorce you, are you willing to marry me?"

Hearing this, Duan Zhengchun's expression changed slightly, then he said sternly: "What nonsense are you spouting? Why would she divorce me?"

"Don't you two have no feelings left between you?"

Qin Hongmian was a bit agitated, "Could it be that everything you said to me back then was a lie? Even if you divorce, you are not willing to be with me?"

Hearing this, Duan Zhengchun felt nauseous and couldn't help but say angrily: "Qin Hongmian, you know best what you have done yourself. Do you want me to state your shameful deeds to your face?"

"Darling Duan, what do you mean by that?"

Qin Hongmian's expression changed slightly, her heart filled with anxiety.

Duan Zhengchun finally stopped pretending and said coldly: "I cannot marry a woman who kneels at the feet of another man and takes the initiative to raise her rear for another man."

"What?"

Hearing this, Qin Hongmian widened her eyes and immediately realized that the things she did last night must have been seen by Duan Zhengchun, otherwise, he wouldn't have said that.

"Darling Duan, it's not what you imagine, listen to my explanation."

Seeing Duan Zhengchun about to leave, Qin Hongmian said anxiously.

"A joke!"

Duan Zhengchun sneered, "I didn't imagine anything. This is what I saw with my own eyes. Don't tell me you were forced; I didn't see the slightest sign of you being forced on your face. Everything was done at your own initiative."

"Darling Duan, I had other hidden reasons, listen to me..."

Qin Hongmian looked agitated and wanted to explain.

But she was cut off by Duan Zhengchun.

"Bitch, the position of Princess in my Zhennan Prince Manor is not for a woman like you."

Duan Zhengchun flicked his robes fiercely and turned to leave.

With his nature of cherishing the fairer sex, to be angered to the point of saying such things showed just how deeply Duan Zhengchun had been hurt.

In these short two days, he had been subjected to too much shock and stimulation.

Qin Hongmian's face turned pale instantly, and she couldn't help but step back a few times, her eyes unfocused, muttering to herself, "How could it be like this, how could it be like this..."

"Why did Darling Duan come back last night, how could he have seen..."

Qin Hongmian returned to her room in a daze.

And the departing Duan Zhengchun thought of Li Qingluo.

"I haven't gone to see Qing Luo since I arrived here. I don't know how she is doing now, but..."

Thinking of this, Duan Zhengchun suddenly felt a bit worried.

"Impossible."

Duan Zhengchun then shook his head, "Qing Luo is Murong Fu's Aunt. Even if Murong Fu is lustful, I don't think he would dare to do such a thing that violates human ethics."

"Before I leave, I might as well go see Qing Luo. I should also remind Qing Luo to be careful of Murong Fu, to prevent being schemed against."

Duan Zhengchun's gaze gradually became firm.
