Quick Wear: The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 482: Transformed into a Rebel Son (7)

But no one mentioned this matter, and even many people who didn't know what happened back then thought he was born to Madam Sun. Although this made his life story look better, it was indeed too cold and indifferent.

He even privately speculated whether the concubine had done something wrong, so that no one mentioned it again, but time had passed and he had no way of finding out. Besides, he didn't really want to know, so he just thought about it and let it go.

But if you think along the lines of what Ning Ning said, everything will make sense.

"No, don't listen to Ning Ning's nonsense. He is just talking nonsense. He just hates Xiu Ge'er for not helping him in the academy, so he doesn't want Xiu Ge'er to marry Xia Er. If you don't believe me, ask him what evidence he has?"

Sun Yan's body trembled slightly, but she still tried her best to defend herself under everyone's gaze.

Ning Ning spread her hands, "The nanny who taught you to cover up was involved in many secret affairs of the harem. Now that her case has been exposed, we can use money to ask the prison and find out. Then how can you prove that what I said was a rumor? Oh, there is a best way. If what I said is false, Ning He and Sun Xiu are cousins, how about you let them get married? If what I said is true, then they are siblings, and getting married is naturally against human ethics! What do you think? Didn't you say that Sun Xiu is a rare young talent? He is not unworthy of Ning He, right?!"

Everyone's eyes fell on Sun Yan, even Sun Xiu looked at her hopefully.

He didn't want to marry Ning He, he just wanted to know what his life story was!

"No, no, no, you are just talking nonsense. That nanny is already in jail, how can you trust what she says!"

Ning Yuan couldn't stand it anymore, so he went up and grabbed her, "I won't say no to marrying He'er to Sun Xiu, what do you think, Madam?"

"No, Master, this is not possible. He'er is my own flesh and blood. How can I reverse the flow of my blood? Don't listen to Ning Ning's nonsense—"

"Bitch!"

Ning Yuan didn't want to listen to her anymore, so he slapped her in the face and ordered loudly, "Someone, lock the lady in her room and don't let her go out! Also, get her out!!!"

No matter what the reason, the best way to prove her innocence is to agree to the marriage between Ning He and Sun Xiu. Besides, considering how much Sun Yan loved Sun Xiu in the past, there is really nothing she can't agree to.

But Sun Yan would rather bear the suspicion than agree to the marriage, which was tantamount to a confession.

The servants didn't know what was going on, but when they saw Ning Yuan was so angry that his facial features were about to shift, the atmosphere in the hall was weird and no one dared to say a word. Those who came to take Sun Yan away took Sun Yan away, and those who came to see the guests off did so.

Only then did they realize that Madam Sun had fainted, and Sun Xiu could only take her back in a daze.

It is said that after Mrs. Sun woke up, she cried and made a fuss, and insisted that Mr. Sun explain what she had raised for so many years.

Ning Yuan on the other side was unwilling to be deceived any longer, so he spent a lot of money to get connections and went to the prison to meet the nanny. No one knew what they talked about, but after he came back, he fell ill and vomited blood from time to time.

After finally cheering himself up, the first thing he did was to divorce Sun Yan with a letter of divorce, and also ordered Ning He to reflect on his mistakes in seclusion!

According to the Sun family's previous arrogance, if Ning Yuan dared to divorce Sun Yan, they would have come to the door to fight. But today they didn't say a word and didn't even come to ask for Sun Yan's dowry. They just said to leave it to Ning He.

Of course, the Sun family didn’t give much dowry when they got married, most of it was just the betrothal gift from the Ning family.

The people of the Sun family almost had the word "guilty" written on their faces. Sun Xiu was also in a slump and got drunk all day long. He was no longer as arrogant as before.

Not long after Sun Yan was taken away, she hanged herself on the beam and died.

Ning Yuan heard this on his sickbed and laughed loudly. He patted the bed and said, "Great, great! This bitch deceived me so badly, and this is what she deserves!"

But then he stopped smiling and called Ning Ning over. "Originally, the Sun family felt guilty, but now that Sun Yan is dead, I'm afraid the Sun family will turn around and vent their anger on us. As the saying goes, people should not fight officials. After all, they are officials. We have to be on guard against this. The Ning family's business cannot be destroyed in my hands! Otherwise, Ning, why don't you go to the Sun family and apologize?"

"We have done nothing wrong, so why should we pay compensation? Besides, the Sun family has not been in office for long, and their foundation is not deep enough, but they are ruthless in taking bribes. I am afraid they will not be in office for long if they are so arrogant. Besides, there are still justice and laws in this world. His family only has officials, and they cannot decide our life and death."

"Ahem, no, you don't know, they have backers behind them."

"Why don't we know that? He is the King of Liang. So the Sun family failed the exam for so many years, but suddenly passed it. How could they not have some explanation? But they thought that joining the King of Liang would be a sure thing. It's really funny. The King of Liang is a prince, but instead of cultivating himself or spending his days in debauchery, he just opens an academy and makes friends with all kinds of literati and heroes. What on earth is he trying to do!"

"Shut up, you can actually say something like that?!"

Ning Yuan panicked immediately and wanted to jump up from the sickbed, but Ning Ning didn't care. "We should be able to see the results soon. Let's not scare ourselves."

Ning Yuan didn't take his words seriously. He just thought that Ning Ning was young and hot-tempered and was unwilling to lose face, so he tortured himself on the hospital bed and his condition became worse.

Unexpectedly, news came soon that King Liang was convicted by the court, stripped of his title, and imprisoned for life. All his accomplices were also convicted, including the Sun family. Master Sun was beheaded, and the rest were exiled.

If the Ning family and the Sun family were in-laws, they would definitely be implicated. Unexpectedly, this time it turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

Many people also said that the Ning family was far-sighted. They got wind of the situation from somewhere and extricated themselves in time.

Ning Yuan felt relieved to have put down the heavy stone in his heart, but when he really focused his attention on those around him, he found that Ning He hated him, and Ning Ning and Ning Xia were very cold to him. Even if they came to take care of him, it was just for the sake of face.

He became sad as he thought about it, "Don't blame me, I am also a father because of--"

"For the Ning family's business."

Ning Ning interrupted him calmly, "But if for this little family property, the Ning family members are all filled with sorrow, living in grief, and even losing their lives, is this family property really that important? Is it worth sacrificing so much for it? You really don't know that Sun Xiu is a good-for-nothing, but for the sake of the family property, he even gave up Ning Xia's lifelong happiness. Even if we become rich enough to rival a country, can we just enjoy this wealth with peace of mind!"

"This is my fault, my father. I am wrong..."

Perhaps it was because of his illness, or perhaps it was because he had experienced a major change, Ning Yuan's personality changed a lot. Unfortunately, it was too late, and the people around him were heartbroken and it was difficult to save the situation.

Ning Yuan’s illness never recovered, and he died of vomiting blood at night a few days later.
