Chapter 883: Madness

He looked down at me, and I looked up at him.

“Nanxing, am I a fool in your eyes?”

I asked in return, “Have you thought about why you want to marry me?”

His eyes were dazed for a moment before he raised his hand and slapped me. “Because you can make my position in the Jing family more stable! As long as I use your Phoenix Blood as an offering, there will naturally be people who will ensure the prosperity of the Jing family!”

I was stunned. I didn’t even feel the slap on my face.

Jing Ning actually knew about the Phoenix Blood?

No! Impossible!

At that time, no one knew about these things!

“How did you know about the Phoenix Blood?” I asked him straightforwardly. I didn’t care about the slap on my face at all.

Jing Ning smiled. “How would I know? How would I know if you didn’t know about it yourself? Of course, I had to walk step by step to get to where I am today. Someone was guiding me! Nanxing, I regret it. I regret it so much. If we were able to successfully get married, with a living treasure like you, I would probably be able to control everything by now, right? And you can have everything you want. Tell me, isn’t that right?”

I thought for a moment before nodding. “Perhaps, it’s true!”

Seeing his smug expression, I sighed again. “But there’s no way to turn time back in this world. You were the one who walked step by step to where you are today. Who’s to blame?”

He suddenly grabbed my shoulders, and he looked down at me from a close distance. “That’s where you’re wrong. You have Phoenix Blood. Why can’t I turn back time? Nanxing, I’ve decided. I’ll marry you. I want to return to the Jing family. No! I want to restore the Jing family! I want to start all over again! Believe me, I can definitely do it!”

I looked at him quietly. “I’m sorry, I can’t do it!”

He was stunned. Then, he let go of my shoulder. “Nanxing, the thing I regret the most is that I didn’t force you back then because you didn’t know that you were such a rare commodity. But this time, you won’t have the chance! I will definitely do it! You will be my wife! Listen to me! As long as you listen to me, I will let you live in luxury and enjoy a lifetime of riches. I will let you be a true rich lady!”

“Do you think I care?” I said calmly.

He wasn’t angry. “Then I’ll have to do it the hard way. It doesn’t matter. I’ll imprison you for a lifetime. I don’t care!”

“I care!” I said firmly.

He shrugged. “It’s useless! You’ve already fallen into my hands.”

I looked at him and suddenly asked, “What about Ye Qian? What do you plan to do?”

Jing Ning’s expression changed. He took two steps back. “Ye Qian, Ye Qian, Ye Qian…”

It turned out that he wasn’t in his right mind.

He suddenly spoke to himself in the direction of the wall. “Ye Qian, I’ve found a way to make a fortune. Let me marry Nanxing! As long as we get married and control Nanxing, brother Jie will give us the Jing family and the other companies that can be annexed. He’ll also give us a small island!

“Ye Qian, it’s been hard on you. I know that you’re the most sensible woman. Don’t worry, the person I love the most in my life is you! Everything I do is for the both of us…”

Taking advantage of this perfect opportunity, I hurriedly bent down and untied the rope on my feet. Thankfully, this idiot wasn’t a professional. Although the rope was thick, the knot wasn’t complicated.

When the rope was untied, he was still confessing to Ye Qian in the air.

I wasn’t in the mood to listen. Ye Qian would probably puke if she heard that.

This self-righteous man!
