disappearing figure and slightly bit her lip, the indignation boiling within her ultimately becoming a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body slumped, and she sat down on the sofa, her eyes gradually growing dull, her face filled with fatigue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all these years, she truly was tired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Ning Yuting’s younger sister, Ning Minyan, walked into the villa’s living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The faint smile of happiness on her face disappeared without a trace when she saw the expression on her sister’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quietly sat down beside Ning Yuting and said, “Sis, are you thinking about unhappy things again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, you can pursue your happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who cares about the Xus of Wu State!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, Qianqian is not your biological daughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xus arranged for you to adopt an orphan just to tie you down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Yuting composed herself and said, “Minyan, don’t say such things in front of Qianqian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have always treated Qianqian as my own daughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that I have been too irresponsible as a mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qianqian is a pitiful child too!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sis, I also regard Qianqian as family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What I mean is that you could find a father for Qianqian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She has been lacking a father’s love since she was young.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That way, you solve the problem of finding lifelong happiness, and Qianqian will have a father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t that the best of both worlds?” Ning Minyan said, trying to persuade her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, when Ning Minyan mentioned finding a father for Qianqian, the first person that came to Ning Yuting’s mind was Ye Chenfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This startled her, and she comforted herself internally: “I must be overthinking it, definitely overthinking it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could I have feelings for that shameless Ye Chenfeng?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s absolutely impossible.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ning Yuting deep in thought, Ning Minyan thought her sister had come around and eagerly said, “Sis, you have so many admirers in the Capital Military Region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With just a beckon of your finger, there’s no telling how many men would be willing to be Qianqian’s father, willing to be your husband!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You shouldn’t hesitate anymore, you’ve already wasted too much of your youth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Yuting gave a wry smile, her smile carrying sorrow, and said, “Minyan, do you think the Xus would let me go?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they were willing to let me go, would they have forced me to marry a dead man back then?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although I am now in Capital City, the Xus must have arranged for someone to watch me in secret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xu’s power in Huaxia Country is immense, unless one of the top families in Capital City is willing to stand up for me, otherwise, I can never escape the shadow of the Xus in this lifetime.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Minyan, which top family in Capital City would agree to have their legitimate heir marry a widow?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Ning Yuting was known as the goddess of the Capital Military Region, the fact that she was a widow was unchangeable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The great families of Capital City cared about their reputation, so they would never agree to letting Ning Yuting into their family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many of Ning Yuting’s admirers were attracted by her looks, by her body!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For most of them, their ultimate goal was only to possess Ning Yuting’s body, which Ning Yuting was all too aware of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Yuting’s brows furrowed tightly, her thoughts inevitably returning to many years ago when the Xus forced her to marry a dead man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nings, facing the pressure of the Xus, equally forced Ning Yuting to marry the deceased Xu Zhanchi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that moment, Ning Yuting truly despaired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She saw the true colors of her family, including her parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They only considered the interests of the family, and Ning Yuting’s life or happiness meant nothing in the eyes of the Nings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How tragic that was!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sis, are you thinking about the past again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, as your sister, I will always be by your side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nings are heartless and ungrateful, and the Xus are driving us to a dead end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I believe that what goes around comes around, and one day they will get their just desserts,” Ning Minyan said, her heart aching at the sight of Ning Yuting’s sorrowful expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sis, I still advise you to go after your own happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don’t believe the Xus’ reach extends to Capital City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it comes to it, we simply won’t return to Wu State.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For us sisters, the Ning family in Wu State means nothing anyway.” Over the years, Ning Minyan had watched her sister live a solitary life and she always hoped her sister would find her own happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie, why are you and Mom still chatting?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, Mom, where did Dad go?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doesn’t he live here?” Qianqian, still in pajamas, woke up from sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing Ye Chenfeng was absent, she walked out of the room and came downstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad?” Ning Minyan muttered to herself, then looked at Ning Yuting with puzzled eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, she laughed and said, “Sister, you’ve even learned to lie now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you have a boyfriend?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m your own sister!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why haven’t you told me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren’t for Qianqian slipping up today, how much longer were you planning to keep it from me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Yuting’s mind conjured up the image of that bastard Ye Chenfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She bit her lip and said, “Min Yan, don’t listen to Qianqian’s nonsense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where would I get a boyfriend from?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mommy, Qianqian didn’t talk nonsense!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qianqian finally has a daddy now, and daddy is also a hero who can protect Qianqian!” Qianqian’s face was adorned with a proud smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qianqian, tell your aunt what your daddy’s name is,” Ning Minyan directly asked Qianqian, knowing her sister would definitely not tell her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qianqian already knew Ye Chenfeng’s name, and had even asked for Ye Chenfeng’s phone number before going to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ning Yuting tried to stop Qianqian, it was already too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Qianqian blurted out, “My daddy’s name is Ye Chenfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s super handsome, just like the prince charming in fairy tales, and my mommy is a princess cursed by a witch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I know daddy must have come to rescue me and mommy.” The little girl innocently bit her fingertip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Chenfeng?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why does that name sound so familiar?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right, isn’t Dongjian’s nephew named Ye Chenfeng?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister, could it be, could it be that you’re dating Dongjian’s nephew?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This, this is just too incredible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the Yes are a top-tier family in Capital City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If sister and Ye Chenfeng were together, you would one hundred percent be able to escape from the shadow of the Xus,” Ning Minyan said in astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qianqian, hurry up and go upstairs to sleep, or else mommy is going to get angry,” Ning Yuting put on a stern face on purpose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qianqian pouted, and while she was walking upstairs, she muttered to herself, “Qianqian didn’t say anything wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chenfeng is Qianqian’s daddy!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after Qianqian had gone upstairs did Ning Yuting finally heave a sigh of relief and said, “Min Yan, don’t listen to Qianqian’s crazy talk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could I possibly be with Ye Chenfeng?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t you know that Ye Chenfeng is an engaged man?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he didn’t have a fiancée, we would never be together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s not my type and at best, he’s just a shameless scoundrel.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking it over carefully, Ning Minyan felt that what Ning Yuting said made sense and couldn’t help feeling disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Yuting looked at Ning Minyan and said, “All right, it’s getting late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s rest early!” With that, Ning Yuting headed towards her room upstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Ning Yuting’s room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having just finished her bath, Ning Yuting sat in front of the window of her room, wearing a somewhat sheer silk nightgown, with her soft, tender feet bare on the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Ning Yuting walked over to the bed, picked up a pillow, and kneaded it while confidently saying, “Ye Chenfeng, you big jerk, you big hooligan, you shameless scoundrel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of these days, I, Ning Yuting, am going to show you just how formidable I am.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just you wait.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little did Ning Yuting know that liking someone often starts with resentment, and she had indeed begun to resent Ye Chenfeng deep down, a very dangerous move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Achoo!” In the Ye family’s villa, Ye Chenfeng had just lain down in bed and couldn’t help but sneeze, “Really don’t know which bastard is cursing me out there?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or maybe which beauty is thinking of me?” (To be continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you like this work, you’re
