Marrying The Villain

The horsewhip was held in Ning Yin's palm, and Yu Lingxi twitched it vigorously, but remained motionless.

"Let go!"

Yu Lingxi stared at him with wet red eyes, and confronted him.

Instead of loosening, Ning Yin tightened her arms, wrapping her arms around the whip twice.

"Miss is delicate, if you beat me again, you will be useless."

His face was gloomy, but his voice was extremely soft, "How many more times are there, I will bear it for you."

As he spoke, he flicked his wrist, and the whip dropped from his hand, wrapping around his strong, thin forearm like a black snake.

Yu Lingxi lost her weapon, and her palms were burning like fire. The two whips just now had exhausted all her strength.

"I won't hit you."

She still stood up straight, pursed her lips and said, "If you don't know why the whip fell, what's the use of receiving the punishment? It will only make you more angry at others."

Ning Yin looked at her for a while, then Fang said: "I am not wrong."

"You have experienced ups and downs in the past. If you shot for self-protection, I have no right to criticize you. But now, you are just enjoying the pleasure of arranging massacres for your own selfish desires."

This kind of Ning Yin is just like the previous life, if he is not happy, he will kill a **** storm.

The one who committed suicide today could be Xue Cen, and tomorrow it could be her father, elder brother, or any innocent person in the world.

"So, miss, are you going to report on me?"

The corner of Ning Yin's mouth moved, and Yu Lingxi guessed that he wanted to laugh, "Or are you going to drive me away again?"

With Ning Yin's ruthless temperament after revealing his true nature, neither of these two paths will work.

Yu Lingxi knew very well that since she decided to take him in, she should bear the due risks and consequences.

If she just abandons him because of setbacks in the middle of the journey, if things don't go as planned, then what is the difference between her and the hypocrite in the eyes of such power?

"I will tell everyone that you will appear here tonight because I am worried about Xue Erlang and asked you to come here to send a message in advance. I am talking to you, and no one is around, and none of the attendants know."

After a pause, Yu Lingxi told the stubborn black-hearted young man in front of her, "There are two choices in front of you. One is to return home with me, and the other is to use your usual method to kill all the people present. .”

Ning Yin's eyelashes trembled, and she raised her eyes abruptly.

The girl in front of her was shivering and damp, but her eyes were stubborn and quiet like never before.

"If you want to choose to kill, kill me first."

She said, "Otherwise, as long as I have breath, I won't let you touch a single hair of the people around me."

Ning Yin smiled like a lunatic, but also a handsome lunatic.

There wasn't even a hint of cruelty in his eyes, and he said in a gentle manner, "Miss pierced the paper on the window, aren't you afraid?"

"afraid."

It's a matter of life and death, how can you not be afraid?

But Yu Lingxi knew Ning Yin well, if he really wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't ask so many nonsense.

When she was drowning in the lake just now, Ning Yin had a chance to kill her. He didn't even have to do it himself, he just had to watch Xue Cen drown in the lake, and she would drown in less than half a cup of tea.

That way, no one would know he had been here.

But Ning Yin jumped down and fished her out from the bottom of the lake.

Yu Lingxi decided to gamble again, anyway, little lunatics like to gamble with their lives, don't they?

She even took a step forward, and took another step forward, the dripping wet dress pressed against her exquisite and undulating figure, the water droplets from the tip of her hair dripped on Ning Yin's deerskin boots, blurring dark wet marks.

She had nothing in her previous life, and she was able to survive for a long time in Ning Yin's unpredictable violence. In this life, she has everything she needs, so is she afraid that she won't be able to cope with Ning Yin who is not yet mature?

The lantern shook slightly, and the tall and low shadows on the wall almost overlapped.

After soaking in the lake for a long time, each other's breathing was damp.

When Yu Lingxi raised her head and looked up, Ning Yin's hand holding the whip suddenly tightened, and her knuckles turned white.

"Now, are you going to kill me?"

She resisted the desire to shrink back, looked at Ning Yin's cold and pale face close at hand, and repeated, "Kill?"

Ning Yin looked at her with eyes half downcast, without moving.

As if a sixty years had passed, Yu Lingxi nodded knowingly: "Okay, then I'm going back home now."

Ning Yin did not stop him.

"Do you still want to come with me?" Yu Lingxi asked.

Ning Yin just looked at her, acquiescing.

Yu Lingxi could see her little self reflected in Ning Yin's eyes.

She stubbornly opened her eyes until she confirmed that the boy did not intend to leave, then took a step back, turned around and got into the carriage.

When she got into the carriage, she glanced to the side out of the corner of her eye, and Ning Yin didn't leave, nor did she make any other dangerous moves.

Yu Lingxi knew that, at least for now, she was safe.

Cold and sore.

After the strong composure dissipated, the suppressed chill and pain scrambled to recover, invading all limbs and bones.

She took the cloak from the carriage and wrapped it around Thurse's body, leaning wearily against the wall of the carriage.

Spreading out his palm, he saw two red and swollen welts interlaced, and a little blood oozing from the purple-red broken skin.

In the end, the root of her nose was sore, Yu Lingxi lightly touched the broken skin of her palm, bit her lip and said nothing. In her past life and present life, even when she was the most desolate, she had never suffered such severe physical pain.

But she didn't regret the whip that fell cruelly, these two whips woke her up.

She used to be lucky, but she forgot that an extremely distorted personality cannot be acquired overnight.

She can no longer separate the lunatic from the previous life from the young man now, Ning Yin is Ning Yin.

To deal with Ning Yin, he can only be crazier than Ning Yin.

Back in Yu Mansion, parents had already heard the news that Xue Cen had fallen into the lake, so there was another flurry of panic.

After changing into dry clothes, Madam Yu took the medicine on Yu Lingxi's palm, and looked at the red and swollen palm of her precious little daughter, frowning with distress.

Confused, Yu Lingxi squatted on the desk and winked at Madam Yu and said, "The lake is too dark, I accidentally made it myself. Don't worry, Ma'am, it doesn't hurt anymore."

Madam Yu's eyes were red, and she stroked her little daughter's temple hair.

The youngest daughter has been weak and delicate since she was a child, and she would cry when bumped into her, but since she woke up from a serious illness last autumn, she has grown a lot overnight.

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, she has a gentleness and perseverance that does not match her age, which is even more distressing.

"You are still so reckless."

Madam Yu wrapped the gauze gently, hugged her fingertips in her palm, and sighed suddenly, "If there is a warm-hearted person who knows everything about you and protects you for the rest of your life, mother will be content."

"My daughter doesn't want others to protect her, she just wants to be by her parents' side."

Yu Lingxi understood Madam Yu's implication, and after a long while, she finally said lightly but firmly, "Mother, I only have brother and sister feelings for Xue Erlang, not men and women."

After Yu Lingxi left, Madam Yu sat alone in the hall for a long time.

Until her shoulders warmed up, General Yu's big hands embraced her, tenderness appeared on his resolute face: "Ma'am, what are you still thinking about here?"

Madam Yu came back to her senses, stretched her brows and said with a smile: "I was thinking that Sui Sui was always delicate and weak, and in order to save Xue Erlang, he dared to jump into the icy pool."

Speaking of this, General Yu also sighed slightly: "I never expected that Sui Sui would do this for Xue Cen."

"But Sui Sui just said that she is just a brother and sister to Xue Erlang."

Madam Yu was distressed, "What do you think Sui Sui thinks?"

"Not to mention anything else, that kid Xue Cen is a solid one."

General Yu thought for a long time, then said in a deep voice, "Now that the East Palace is eyeing you, I really can't wait any longer."

Dong Gong forced her to make a hasty decision on her daughter's life-long event, which was tantamount to a big gamble.

Madam Yu sighed: "It would be great if Sui Sui could have a man who truly loves each other. As long as I can risk my life to protect her and keep her safe, even if her family background is poor, I will be happy." I also admit it."

"It's useless to think about it now. The lesser of two evils, marrying Sui Sui to someone who truly loves her is better than marrying someone who doesn't love her."

General Yu said in relief, "Sleep, I will take Suisui to Xue's residence tomorrow, and see the other party's attitude before we talk."

…

On the second day, Yu Lingxi prepared medicinal gifts and rushed to Xue's mansion with General Yu to pay a visit.

After all, the matter of Xue Cen's falling into the lake was related to her, and the two families were family friends, so she wanted to pay a visit to the house because of love and reason.

When going down the steps, she subconsciously stretched out her right hand, intending to get into the carriage with the arm of the servant.

Unexpectedly, when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar arm wearing a cowhide wristband.

Looking up along the arms, there is Ning Yin's handsome face that cannot be ignored.

It was as if what happened last night had never happened, and he still stood in front of the steps with a calm expression, waiting for her to go home.

Yu Lingxi's fingertips paused, then she changed her left hand nonchalantly, and put on Qing Xiao's arm on the other side.

Her left hand had been whipped twice last night, but the once slender and delicate palm was now wrapped with rough white gauze, which was particularly eye-catching.

Ning Yin's eyes were dark, the shadow of last night's whip seemed to be burned in his heart, and it was her trembling and skinny palm that couldn't get away.

But Yu Lingxi didn't say a word to him, put another man's arm into the carriage without a word, and left without a word.

He slowly lowered his arms and stood there for a long time.

Still angry.

Xue Mansion.

As soon as Yu Lingxi got off the carriage, she met an old acquaintance in front of Xue's residence.

The housekeeper of Xue's house bowed and smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, Miss Zhao, my second son is still ill, so it's inconvenient to see guests."

Zhao Yuming looked very caring, and took two packs of medicinal materials from the maid, and handed them to the steward of Xue's house, "In that case, please pass these to the second son."

Turning around and seeing Yu Lingxi, Zhao Yuming was startled, then avoided looking forward and said, "Uncle, cousin Lingxi."

After a face-to-face meeting, the steward of the Xue family respectfully invited the father and daughter of the Yu family into the gate.

The door of Xue Mansion's beast head closed in front of his eyes, and the servant girl of Zhao Mansion spat: "Dogs look down on people, why should they be able to go in!"

Zhao Yuming stared at the closed door for a long time, frowned and said, "Hong Zhu, don't talk nonsense."

Xue's mansion is very large. The main hall is devoid of jewels and embossed paintings. It looks simple and elegant, but in fact, every beam and every lacquered column is made of the best wood. This main hall alone is worth as much as The price of the entire mansion of the nobleman elsewhere.

The calligraphy and paintings on all sides are exquisite, and the calligraphy and ink are fragrant, showing the grandeur of a century-old family everywhere.

"Second sister!"

A few suppressed low coughs came from outside the hall. It was Xue Cen who heard that the Yu family's father and daughter were coming to visit, so he hurriedly put on a coat and ran over.

Xue Cen was still ill, his face was a little haggard, but still clear and handsome.

He probably came in a hurry, he didn't tie his hair up, but tied a green bamboo ribbon loosely at the end of his hair, showing a bit of gentle bookishness, and asked with a smile, "Where's General Yu?"

"I'm negotiating with your father, let me go around at will."

Yu Lingxi stood up, and after deliberating for a while, she asked, "Brother Cen, are you alright?"

She was talking about falling into the lake last night.

"I choked on too much water and fell into a coma all night. It would be much better to see my second sister." Xue Cen replied.

The more tolerant he was, the more guilty Yu Lingxi felt.

"I'm sorry, Brother Cen."

Her voice lowered, and she said seriously, "If you hadn't been tired by me, if I hadn't been late, you wouldn't have encountered these things."

Xue Cen was startled, then said softly, "It has nothing to do with you, Second Sister, don't blame yourself."

He clenched his fist against his lips and coughed lightly. Fang slightly said hoarsely: "Actually, I'm very glad that you didn't come overtime last night and didn't run into any villains. If you are also in danger, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

That was a friendship that Yu Lingxi couldn't bear.

She was thinking about how to confess and decline, but when Xue Cen saw Yu Lingxi's bandaged left hand, he froze for a moment: "What's wrong with your hand?"

Yu Lingxi shook her head and put her hands behind her back, "It's nothing."

"Did you get injured because you saved me?" The pain in Xue Cen's eyes was obvious.

Probably too anxious, he suddenly coughed violently, and the servants who were waiting on him immediately brought tea to relieve his breath, and it took him a long time to calm down.

He is so ill, but he is still gentle and sincere, always considerate of others. Looking at his weak appearance, Yu Lingxi opened her lips several times, then closed them angrily, and couldn't find a chance to speak out the finished manuscript.

Back at the General's Mansion, it began to drizzle again.

As soon as she bent down and got out of the carriage, she saw a dark green umbrella leaning over, covering her from the slanting raindrops flying overhead.

Yu Lingxi lifted her skirt and looked up, meeting Shang Ningyin's rain-soaked eyes.

She pursed her lips, then stepped on the footstool and jumped down, hiding under the paper umbrella supported by walnuts.

The light daughter's fragrance only stayed under Ning Yin's umbrella for a short time, and then it slipped away completely, and it was clear without a trace when the wind blew.

Yu Lingxi didn't look back at Ning Yin's expression, only knew that he probably stood in the rain for a long time.

She wouldn't hurt Ning Yin to vent her anger, but she couldn't forgive him so easily, otherwise he would only get worse next time if he tasted the sweetness.

Ning Yin only said that he would not kill her.

But Ning Yin didn't know that using the means of deception and exploitation on people who treat him well is a pain in itself.

He had to figure it out by himself slowly.

Even if she wanted to understand even a little bit, there was a glimmer of gleam in this big gamble, which could support her to follow the plan firmly.

After several days of humidity, the rain finally stopped.

The air returned to a pleasant dryness, a rare sunny day.

There has been no movement in the East Palace, and I don't know if it's a good thing or the tranquility before the big move.

Yu Lingxi took a moment to breathe, guessing that after a few days of slowing down, the little lunatic's extreme temper should have calmed down.

Probably, should, maybe... have a good talk with him.

So he simply dismissed the maid and went to the backyard.

As soon as he turned around the veranda, he saw Ning Yin in a dark military robe standing in front of the steps, raising his head with his hands up and down, looking with great interest at a blooming magnolia tree in the courtyard.

The white magnolia bloomed above his head and fell at his feet like clouds and snow, framing the calm young man in a natural painting.

For a moment, Yu Lingxi seemed to have returned to her previous life, where the Regent who had one leg limped stood under the flower tree like this.

Under the tree, thick blood is buried, nourishing a tree with a brilliant pink glow.

Yu Lingxi regained her composure and walked towards him lightly.

Ning Yin didn't turn her head back, as if she had eyes behind her back, she said calmly: "Miss is willing to talk to me again?"

Sure enough, I didn't even bother to pretend, it was cold and choking.

Well, it's really a familiar tone from the previous life.

It's just that the young man in front of him is a bit worse than the regent in his previous life.

"What are you looking at?" Yu Lingxi stood beside him, and the fragrance of magnolia flowers was refreshing and clean.

Ning Yin smiled without warmth: "Watching a play."

Yu Lingxi was suspicious, followed his gaze, and was speechless.

Where is the play?

It was clearly a thick black snake dormant among the flowers, raising its head and uttering messages, ready to hunt and kill an unsuspecting canary.
