311 Do You Know Him?
Although Jiang Ying had already recovered, she had yet to deal with the things Jiang Ying had used, so Ning Yue did not dare to go home yet. She would go back after dealing with everything.
During this period, the Ning family was very worried about Ning Yue and Jiang Ying. They had sent a few representatives to ask a few times.
Ning Yue sent them away every time. She did not want to harm her family.
This time, after receiving a confirmation, the Ning family was overjoyed. Old Master Ning asked Ning Yue when she would be returning home.
Ning Yue only told them that she would go back after settling everything.
When the Ning family heard this, they did not send people over to ask about the situation every other day. Since she was fine, they were relieved.
On this day, Ning Yue was working in the backyard when she heard someone report that Princess Lotus had sneaked into the laundry room.
When she was discovered by the servants, she only said that she wanted to wash Jiang Ying’s clothes.
Ning Yue couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Did Princess Lotus know how to wash clothes for others?
Dream on!
She wanted to go out directly, but she thought of something. She first took out gloves, a mask, and a protective suit from her space and went to the laundry room.
Ning Yue first asked where her clothes were. Then, under Yun Duo’s shocked gaze, she put on her protective suit and picked up her clothes.
She put the clothes in a clean, airtight box with an ice pack.
She went to an empty room where no one lived and began to examine the washed clothes.
At this moment, Lian Xin came personally. Ning Yue had just examined the clothes. When she heard Lian Xin arrive, she had no choice but to pack the clothes into something and throw them into a corner of the space.
There was indeed a virus on it. She had to be careful.
Seeing Ning Yue’s frown, Lian Xin couldn’t help but ask what was going on.
Ning Yue mentioned her discovery, surprising Lian Xin.
“Why do you suspect that there’s smallpox there?” Lian Xin asked.
People who were infected with smallpox died easily. Why wasn’t Ning Yue afraid and even knew that there would be smallpox on their clothes?
“I’m just guessing and will do verification later,” Ning Yue said.
“Don’t tell me you think Prince Jiang Ying was plotted against when he obtained smallpox?” Lian Xin suddenly asked Ning Yue.
In Ning Yue’s heart, Lian Xin was just a business partner. There were many things she did not want to say to Lian Xin.
So she just said, “Something like that.”
Lian Xin smiled and took out a letter for Ning Yue.
This letter seemed to be from Princess Lotus to the royal family of the Black City Kingdom. It probably said that according to the plan, Jiang Ying had obtained smallpox.
She wanted to threaten Ning Yue with the excuse of treating Jiang Ying and make her agree to cancel the engagement with Jiang Ying.
Princess Lotus did not know that Ning Yue had cured Jiang Ying. She felt that the time to threaten Ning Yue had arrived. She would negotiate with Ning Yue on the twenty-sixth.
Wasn’t the twenty-sixth tomorrow?
Ning Yue frowned. What puzzled her even more was why Lian Xin had this letter.
“Who are you? Why do you have this letter?” Ning Yue asked.
“I intercepted it halfway. I thought you needed it, so I showed it to you. If you don’t need it, I won’t be a busybody in the future,” Lian Xin said.
Ning Yue did not know what to say. At first, she did not take Lian Xin seriously and only treated her as an ordinary business partner. However, from the looks of it, Lian Xin seemed to be a very powerful person!
She regretted it a little. She regretted working with Lian Xin back then.
“You can rest assured. Although I can’t tell you my identity for the time being, you have to remember that I will never hurt you,” Lian Xin said.
Ning Yue pursed her lips. Men were liars. She would not believe Lian Xin’s words.
However, even if Lian Xin did not say anything, she could ask Jiang Ying to think of a way to investigate. These things could be discussed later.
What Ning Yue was puzzled about now was that Princess Lotus had only caused Jiang Ying to be infected with Smallpox to force him to marry her.
It seemed that all the evidence pointed to the Lotus Princess, but why?
“Sigh, Lotus is really a resentful woman.” Lian Xin sighed.
What resentful woman? Ning Yue was speechless. Lianhua was the princess of the Black City Kingdom and not just any woman. Why was she so resentful?
