Chapter 419: Do You Really Think I Can’t Bear to Kill You?

Chapter 419: Chapter 419: Do You Really Think I Can’t Bear to Kill You?

Ning Nuan slowly reached out her hand, very nervous, yet also filled with anticipation.

This moment, she had been waiting for far too many years.

From childhood, in order to maintain her image as the obedient girl, she never did anything out of line, always retaining the modesty expected of a lady.

Little aunt was right, it was her own lack of initiative in the past that had given Yan Qianyi the opportunity she had now.

Ning Nuan began to unbutton Mu Yunlie’s shirt.

When she reached the fourth button, Mu Yunlie suddenly grabbed her wrist.

A smile curled up at the corner of her lips.

She was waiting to be pulled into Mu Yunlie’s arms when his repressed voice sounded above her head.

"What are you doing?"

Ning Nuan was stunned for a moment and looked up in surprise, meeting Mu Yunlie’s bloodshot eyes.

How could this be?

The drug should have taken effect already...

Maybe it needed a little more time?

Ning Nuan quickly composed herself, "Brother Ah Lie, you said you were feeling very hot, so I thought to help you take off your shirt. Little aunt has gone to find a doctor already, they should be here soon."

Mu Yunlie narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly, Ning Nuan’s face before him transformed into Yan Qianyi’s face.

His heart warmed, and he eagerly pulled her down onto the bed.

Just as he was about to bend down to kiss her, Mu Yunlie suddenly stiffened.

The strong scent of perfume assaulted his sense of smell.

Qianyi never wore such heavy perfume.

Her scent was always a light milky fragrance, tinged with a hint of medicinal herbs.

Under the stimulus of the scent, Mu Yunlie regained sobriety for a moment.

He closed his eyes, shook his head forcefully, and when he opened them again, he finally saw the face lying on the bed clearly, it was Ning Nuan, not his "little thing."

"What are you doing?" he erupted in anger, grabbing Ning Nuan and throwing her off the bed.

The glass cup on the bedside table was knocked off.

When Ning Nuan fell to the ground, her back landed right on the shards of glass, and she cried out in pain.

Mu Yunlie didn’t look at her but got up and stumbled toward the door.

Ning Nuan didn’t care about her pain; she quickly got up from the ground and chased after him, trying to hold onto Mu Yunlie.

"Brother Ah Lie, don’t leave..."

Mu Yunlie suddenly turned around, reached out to grasp her neck, and pinned her against the wall.

Because of the pressure, the glass shards embedded in Ning Nuan’s back sank even deeper into the flesh.

She sweated profusely from the pain, her breathing cut off by Mu Yunlie’s chokehold, her face turning beet red in an instant.

Mu Yunlie’s eyes burned with uncontainable fury as he looked at her.

"How dare you use such tricks on me? You really think I couldn’t bring myself to kill you?"

At that moment, Mu Yunlie had realized why his body was reacting so strangely.

There were many women in the Military Department who wanted to sleep with him, but none of them had the audacity to play such dirty tricks on him.

"I..." Ning Nuan struggled to open her mouth, but she couldn’t speak.

Mu Yunlie lifted his hand, gripping her neck, and hoisted her up.

Ning Nuan’s feet struggled as they left the ground, her lips gradually turning a shade of purple.

Mu Yunlie felt the urge to continue applying pressure, but his fingers, touching the woman’s soft neck skin, made the fire within him flare up once more.

He quickly let go of Ning Nuan, jerked his hand away as if he had been electrocuted.

Ning Nuan’s body slid down the wall to the floor, limp.

She coughed violently, her body curling into a ball in pain.

Mu Yunlie gritted his teeth, "I don’t want to see you ever again!"

Having said that, he continued walking towards the door.

But his steps were unsteady, every move was as if walking on clouds, his body light and floating, unable to stand firm.

Seeing Mu Yunlie getting farther and farther away, Ning Nuan couldn’t care less and completely let go.

She got up from the ground again and ran up to tightly hug Mu Yunlie, her soft body pressing closely against his back.

"Brother Ah Lie, don’t be like this, you’ve misunderstood... I didn’t, I was just helping you take off your clothes because you looked hot..."

Little aunt had said that kind of drug couldn’t be detected.

As long as they didn’t admit it, Brother Ah Lie wouldn’t be able to find any evidence.

Afterward, he wouldn’t remember anything, he would only feel like he had just been drunk.

Now that things had developed to this point, she had to become his woman tonight!

If she let him leave in a huff like this, she really wouldn’t have another chance!

Mu Yunlie looked down at Ning Nuan’s hands tightly clasping his waist.

He wanted to pull her hands away, but the soft body against his back seemed to have some magical power that paralyzed his body.

It was as if there was a beast living inside of him.

At this moment, the beast completely took over his reason, rendering him unable to control his body.

"Brother Ah Lie, I’ve liked you since I was little, I don’t have any grand dreams, my only dream is to grow up and marry you, to become your wife."

"Please don’t push me away anymore, okay? I swear, I’ll love you more than Yan Qianyi!"

"Brother Ah Lie, I beg of you..."

...

Downstairs, Mu Huaner glanced at the time.

Figuring it was about time, she made a voice call to Yan Qianyi.

Yan Qianyi had just finished bathing, she grabbed a book to read on the couch while waiting for Mu Yunlie to come back.

Seeing the call from Mu Huaner, she frowned.

She hesitated for a moment before answering.

"Yan Qianyi."

"It’s so late, what is it?"

Both of their tones were not good.

Behind closed doors, they had already torn off the pretense, no longer hiding their dislike for each other.

Mu Huaner chuckled, "It’s nothing much, just wanted to let you know, Ah Lie isn’t coming back tonight, so you don’t have to wait for him."

Yan Qianyi’s expression darkened, "Ah Lie isn’t coming back, why are you telling me this?"

Ah Lie had clearly said before he left that he would return as soon as he could, telling her to wait for him.

He had never gone back on his word to her.

And even if there really was something that made him unable to return, he should’ve informed her personally.

On the other end, Mu Huaner was gently swaying a wine glass, her voice barely concealing her joy, "Because he’s too busy to contact you, tonight he’s staying with Nuannuan."

Hearing this, Yan Qianyi abruptly stood up, the book falling to the floor.

"What did you say?"

"Didn’t catch that, huh? Let me say it again, listen carefully. Ah Lie is staying with Nuannuan tonight, and he’s not coming back."

Yan Qianyi suddenly clenched her fists, both hands trembling slightly.

There was only her in the bedroom, so she wasn’t wearing headphones.

Mu Huaner’s triumphant laughter filled the entire room.

"Yan Qianyi, do you really take yourself too seriously? After all, Ah Lie and Nuannuan are childhood sweethearts with a deeply rooted affection, to him, you’re just a new thrill."

"If I were you, I’d just leave on my own accord. Why insist on staying and humiliating yourself?"

"Men are fickle, and being so proud, surely you wouldn’t want to share a man with other women, right?"

Yan Qianyi scoffed coldly, "Trying to sow discord?"

"Think what you want, but after tonight, Ah Lie won’t belong to you alone..."
