Chapter 146: Ning Yao Confesses

Ning Qing ducked her eyes, not wanting to look at him.

Both of them scratched hard. His delicate collar bones had a red scar that was bleeding slightly. She was distressed looking at it.

But on the other hand, if he were gentler, she would not have lost control.

Ning Qing took the toothbrush with one hand, and used her other hand to squeeze the toothpaste. She elegantly gargled a mouth of cold water, spat it out, and brushed her teeth slowly.

Lu Shaoming saw her movements. The counter reflected her delicate face, her soft lips were full of white bubbles, and some pieces of hair were stuck on the sides of her face. She was youthful and adorable.

Lu Shaoming’s eyes darkened as he looked at her, swallowing his saliva.

Ning Qing washed her face, and Lu Shaoming carried her back to bed. Ning Qing quietly sat in his embrace. “Shaoming, will we be sleeping here tonight?

“Yeah, do you still have legs to go somewhere else?”

Great, he was mocking her.

Disregarding who put her in this state.

Ning Qing lay on him, her small hand touching his strong chin. “Shaoming, can you forgive me? I understand where I was wrong. I also made it up to you with physical action, and reflected on it. Are you still angry?”

“Yeah.” Lu Shaoming’s eyes were half closed. “You only need to listen next time.”

“What? How was I restless? Don’t spout nonsense!” Ning Qing stretched her hand out in attempt to tickle him.

Lu Shaoming hugged her. He stretched out to bring the blanket over the both of them. “Not bad, seems like you still have energy left, Wifey. One more time.”

“... I don’t want to, it hurts. You, you already had it twice just now.”

“Not enough, listen to me, Wifey. Hand yourself to me this time.”....

...

The two of them still acted as newlyweds. The next morning, the two of them slept ’til the sun shone brightly in the sky. They were woken up by a ringing phone.

Ning Qing stretched out from Lu Shaoming’s embrace to take the phone from the nightstand. Once she moved, the man followed her, and tightly hugged her from behind.

Ning Qing was full of bliss, lazing in bed with the man she loved. It was such a relaxing thing to do.

“Who’s calling?” the man asked, with a sleepy voice.

“Xu Junxi. Hubby, don’t talk”

Ning Qing ordered him to remain silent and answered the phone.

“Hello, Ning Qing. Xu Lin has already confessed. She was acting on the orders of Ning Yao. The bedroom picture of you and Mu Yunfan was uploaded on the internet by Ning Yao.”

“Xu Lin confessed to it? Why would she confess that easily? President Xu, what did you do to her?”

“I asked some rascals to rape her, pretending it was Ning Yao’s orders. She was shocked, and she confessed everything in a heartbeat. I have the sound recording on hand. But, Ning Qing, there are many things about this that I do not understand.”

Ning Qing understood in her heart. Xu Junxi did not know much about this.

Her bright eyes sparkled immediately, and the gears in her head were turning fast. “The situation 3 years ago, I also have my doubts. What about this, I thought of a plan. Let us...”

Ning Qing shared the plan that she’d held in her heart.

“Okay,” Xu Junxi’s voice agreed from the other end. He suddenly went silent for 3 seconds, and said gently, “Qingqing...”

Upon hearing his words, Ning Qing felt her body break out in goosebumps. Her chest hurt. The man was unwilling to remove his hand away from her chest the entire night, and was now pinching her.

“Ahh,” Ning Qing winced in pain.

Xu Junxi heard her pain and instantly asked her, concerned, “Qingqing, what’s the matter?”

The phone in Ning Qing’s hand was snatched away by the man behind her. “President Xu, disturbing people in the early morning is not pleasant, please call at a better time next time.”

Xu Junxi froze, and Lu Shaoming ended the call abruptly.

“Shaoming, what are you doing? If you suddenly make a sound, Xu Junxi would know...”

“Know that you were sleeping with me? Ning Qing, don’t forget the words I told you yesterday. Be good ok? You are my wife, distance yourself from both Xu Junxi and Mu Yunfan. If you dare flirt with other men, I will kill them first then torture you later.”

Ning Qing blushed and chided him. “Lu Shaoming, you are so narrow minded! Xu Junxi and Mu Yunfan did not do anything to me; even if they want to pursue me, how is that my fault? I am naturally attractive, would that be my fault? Then I should wear a headscarf from here on?”

Lu Shaoming flipped over and pinned her down, blocking her crimson lips that were chattering nonstop. “Ning Qing. I gave you a little freedom and you’ve already become so bold? You don’t need to wear a headscarf, I will make sure that you won’t be able to get out of bed every morning!”

Pervert!

Ning Yao did not see Xu Junxi for an entire week. Since last night, even news from Xu Lin had stopped coming. She was living in fear.

At this moment, the villa doors opened. Xu Junxi walked in; he was actually here.

Ning Yao was elated. Hastily, she went to welcome him into her arms. “Junxi, you are back! That’s great. I thought you didn’t want me or the baby.”

Xu Junxi pushed her away, and pinched his tired frown. “I was working the entire night in the office. I am exhausted now. I am going to take a shower. I will sleep later.”

“Sure, sure.” Ning Yao nodded quickly, entering the bedroom alongside him.

The sound of water splashing echoed in bathroom. At this moment, Xu Junxi’s phone, which had been left on the bed rang. Ning Yao went to check and she was shocked; it was a call from Ning Qing.

She saw that Xu Junxi was still bathing and did not take notice. She speedily picked the phone up and walked to the balcony, answering the call in secret.

“Hello, President Xu, are you interested in meeting? I have the sound recording of Xu Lin in my hands. She confessed to everything; everything she did was on Ning Yao’s orders.” action

Ning Yao lost colour in her ace. “What? Xu Lin confessed to it all? Ning Qing, what do you plan to do? Why are you looking for Xu Junxi?”

“It’s you, Ning Yao. I don’t want to talk to you. Where is Xu Junxi? I want to speak to him, I will tell him what role you played in his life all these years.”

“No.” Ning Yao shook her head. “Ning Qing, you can’t do this to me. You will ruin me like this. Hand the voice recording to me, give it to me.”

“Hand it over to you? Ah, Ning Yao, who do you think you are? What do you have in exchange?”

Ning Yao clenched her teeth. “Ning Qing, lets meet. Don’t you want to know what happened 3 years ago? I will let you know. I will exchange the truth in exchange for the voice recording.”

Ning Yao rushed to the café, Ning Qing was already sitting down waiting for her.

“Ning Qing, where is the recording? I want to listen to check if it is real.”

“Sure.”

Ning Qing took out the recorder pen from her bag and opened it. Xu Lin’s panicked voice came from the pen –”Don’t kill me, don’t kill me, this was all done on the orders of Ning Yao. She transferred a ton of money into my bank account and even promised me that she would send me overseas to study.”

“Ning Yao, how is it? Have you confirmed if it is real?” Ning Qing placed the recording pen on the table.

“Give it to me!” Ning Yao stretched her hand to snatch it.

Ning Qing easily blocked her. “You can have it if you play your cards right. How about the truth? I want to hear it now.”

Ning Yao sat back on the sofa. Her eyes blinked, and she looked like she was making a firm resolution. She said, “3 years ago, mum organized separate parties for you and Jun Xi. At Young Master Mu’s birthday party, I bribed a maid of the Mu family, to drug your alcohol. You left for the bathroom, with the maid leading the way for you. You were in a blur and followed her into Young Master Mu’s room instead.

“There was a camera preinstalled in Young Master Mu’s room. We received the pictures and there was the proof of you in bed together. Xu Junxi would definitely not want you after that. My mother kept this photo in her hands. Before she went to jail, she handed it to me so that I could take action when the time came. I actually arranged everything well. This was a war that I was confident that I would win, but I didn’t think you would have the chance to uncover these details.

“Ning Qing, you have a life that is too good. You met Lu Shaoming. It is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to you.”

Ning Qing listened quietly, Ning Yao’s words made sense. Her credibility was high. She looked at Ning Yao’s cunning and jealous face, and she contemplated silently.

Was this the truth?

Did Ning Yao deceive her?

Thinking for a minute, Ning Qing suddenly smiled. She took her phone, and pretended to make a call.

“Ning Qing, what are you doing? Who are you calling? I already told you the truth, what do you want to do now?” Ning Yao was flustered.

“Ha, I am calling Xu Junxi. You did not tell me the entire truth, you are lying to me. I don’t have further time to waste on you.”

“No, I didn’t. This is the truth really, Ning Qing...you...”

“Ning Yao,” Ning Qing interrupted her with a cold look in her eyes. She cackled coldly. “Not bad, your story flowed well this time. It seems like the truth. But, you and your mum Li Meiling would not be so pleasant. You two would push me to Mu Yunfan? Ah, this is a joke!

“At that time, the Mu family had a better standing in society compared to the Xu family. They had better connections. The Mu family was always T City’s rich and powerful military family. Mu Yunfan was handsome and he was deemed the prince of T City. Even Xu Junxi could not compare to him. If your mum wanted to ruin me, she had many possibilities to do so. Any man at the party would have done the trick. Would you waste so much energy and take on so much risk by including Mu Yunfan into your scheme? You two would not have such good intentions as to push to me a guy better than Xu Junxi.”

Ning Qing saw fear appear on Ning Yao’s face. She confidently curled her lips into a smile as she took a small sip of coffee. Smiling, she said, “Ning Yao, based on my knowledge of you and your mother, your mum, she definitely drugged my drink that night. You two bribed the maid and naturally had the means to pull me into a secluded area. There were probably some dirty, vulgar men waiting there; you would want them to rape me. After being assaulted, I would naturally shout, attracting the attention of the partygoers. This would be the best way to ruin my reputation.”

“Ning Qing, how did you find out about this? You...” Ning Yao was distressed. The things that happened 3 years ago had been kept secret, only she and her mum knew about it all. Ning Qing had guessed so accurately.

She hurriedly covered her mouth after she finished her words. Oh no, she was confessing to her crimes indirectly.

Ning Qing looked at Ning Yao. She was emotional, Ning Yao did not have her advisor, Li Meiling, yet she still dared to go out and wreak havoc?

“I didn’t know about the matters three years ago, but I understand your mum. I understand your mum better than she understands herself,” Ning Qing said absentmindedly.

Ning Yao was frozen on the spot, she panicked. What was she going to do? What should she do now?

At this moment, Ning Qing picked up her phone again. “Since you still do not want to come clean with me now, I will call Xu Junxi now and let him question you personally.”

“Don’t call him, I will tell you what you want to know. You figured it out. My mum put an aphrodisiac in your drink. But we did not know that the aphrodisiac would turn into an incapacitating agent. We also did not know how you had entered Young Master Mu’s room.”

“If you two did not know, where did the photos come from then?” Ning Qing slammed the table as she questioned further.

Ning Qing was shocked beyond words. She shook her head continuously, saying, “The photos were mailed to my mum before she went into jail. Ning Qing, trust me; the words I’m saying now are all true. The things that happened 3 years ago, we were also not clear about it. If not, we would not have waited all this time to take you down with that.”

Ning Qing quickly contemplated; were Ning Yao’s words now credible?

If Ning Yao was speaking the truth, then this line of evidence was broken.

What exactly happened 3 years ago?

She looked at Ning Yao’s pale face, and spared another look at her 4 month stomach that was already a small bump. She took the recording pen on the table and threw it to Ning Yao.

Ning Yao was exhilarated, and quickly placed the recording pen into her bag.

“Ning Yao, do you have any regrets? Your mum orchestrated this for her entire life, and she ended up in jail. And you schemed to get Xu Junxi all your life, but it has all come undone.”

“It won’t be completely undone if Jun Xi believes I’m innocent. Based solely on the scar on my forehead, the three years of my youth that I have given him, and the young life in my stomach, he belongs to me. This makes it appear likely that he would marry me and make me Madam Xu.”

Ning Qing glanced to look at the concealed figure behind the counter. There was a lanky shadow. She said laughingly, “Madam Xu? Ning Yao, do you actually love him as a person, or love his money?”

“I love it all. Because he is rich, because he is Xu Junxi, I love him. Ning Qing, how would you know about poverty? You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth! Poverty means that there is no dignity to speak of, and it makes everyone around you roll their eyes. I don’t want to return to those days. I swore that I would find a rich man to rely on, and then I met Xu Junxi.

“He was so mesmerizing and handsome. He was the only son of the Xu family. He had a good family background; I fell in love the moment I saw him. But he only saw you in his eyes. He trailed behind you, treated you like a little princess. Based on what? What do you have Ning Qing, to get the favor of great men without even lifting a finger? No matter how hard I worked, I was just a supporting role. From that moment, I swore I had to snatch Xu Junxi from your side.

“So 3 years ago, I appeared at the park that you agreed to meet at. I saved Junxi and even had a scar on my forehead to show for it. I was afraid that he would pine after you, so I left for America, I surrounded him and let him fall in love with my gentle embrace. After returning to the country, I nit-picked at you to let Jun Xi to take revenge for me. I let Jun Xi pave a bright path for me in the entertainment industry.

“Haha, Ning Qing. The fact that you and Xu Junxi ended up in this state could not be blamed on anyone else. It was your unwavering love for him, and Jun Xi cheated too easily!”

Ning Qing could not completely comprehend Ning Yao’s outlook on many matters. There was nothing on earth that could come without hard work. She, Ning Qing, had the interest of many men, which was due to her attractiveness as a person. She did not ever come to provoke anyone.

She had also been in poverty at one point. She was also at the receiving end of rolled eyes, but she led a life of dignity. Ning Yao did not understand; dignity could not come just with wealth, but it came inherently.

Dignity was intrinsic.

But the last sentence that Ning Yao said was so insightful. With that one sentence of hers, it broke the relationship she had with Xu Junxi over the years.

The past was already gone, there was only regret left.
