Chapter 142: A Game Within a Game
This is Luo Luo's first time coming to Ning's house.
Completely different from the Truss Tan Palace, the Ning family is more inclined to the decoration of the ancient courtyard, and at a glance, you can deeply feel that this is an ancient and majestic family.
Luo Luo followed Ning Xian all the way into the law enforcement hall in Xiao Qi's mouth, which was more like the ancestral hall in the TV series, but it was different. The interior space is huge, and there are more than a dozen old people sitting on either side of the hall, of different ages, but they are undoubtedly a few decades older than her.
Sitting in the first seat was a slightly chubby old man, who looked older than Ning Xian, half-leaning on the armrest, holding a pair of prayer beads, twisting them around his fingertips. The old man's eyes were always closed, as if he was closing his eyes to recuperate, his skin was slightly darkened, but his temperament was the same as Ning Shi, and he looked like a person who had been in a high position for a long time.
In fact, if you think about it, which of the Ning family members present has not been in a high position for a long time? But she only noticed this old man, which shows that his temperament is extraordinary.
But Luo Luo just glanced at it, she quickly retracted her gaze, lowered her head silently, and followed behind Ning Xian honestly.
Walking to the center of the hall, Ning Xiancai stopped and said respectfully to the old man in the hall: "Old lady, Miss Zhong has arrived." ”
For a while, the focus of all eyes fell on Luo Luo's body, including the old man who always sat on the main seat and twisted the Buddha beads. The old man opened his eyes slightly, and his majesty and domineering spirit were natural, different from Ning Shi's arrogance and calmness, this old man was more like a hidden sharp bow, and he could almost hear the howling of the wind before he put on the feather arrow.
Luo Luo looked at him timidly, and finally looked away.
"Are you Zhong Luoluo?" Old Man Ning spoke, his voice as deep as a bell.
Luo Luo nodded, "Yes," she swallowed unconsciously, "Old lady Ning." ”
The old lady Ning Shenfu Ning carefully glanced at the girl in the hall, she was beautiful, she was a shallow little girl at first glance, and she really didn't know what her grandson liked about her.
"Are you guilty?" he said in a cold voice.
Although he had a premonition, Luo Luo was still frightened by this sudden questioning. She frowned slightly, hesitated in her heart, but shook her head.
"I don't know?" asked Old Lady Ning again.
Luo Luo was much more determined this time, she raised her eyes to look directly at the sharp gaze cast at Old Lady Ning, and heard her voice calm to the extreme, "I don't know." ”。
Suddenly, someone on both sides of the hall shouted: "Presumptuous! dare to speak against the old lady!
Old lady Ning's hand with a rosary was raised slightly, and the hall immediately returned to silence.
"I don't know, then let me ask you, Ning Shi arrested Aso Eisuke, is it because of you?"
Luo Luo's throat choked, as if he had stuck a fish bone.
"Yes. ”
"Then do you know Eisuke Aso's status in the Aso family?"
Luo Luo was silent, "I know, he is the future heir of the Aso family. ”
Old lady Ning suddenly slapped the table, and the force was so great that even the entire table trembled.
Luo Luo also trembled almost involuntarily, and his heart beat wildly. She heard Old Lady Ning's angry voice, "Then you dare to instigate Ning Shi to detain people?"
Luo Luo bit her lip, her lips were bright red, red as if they were about to drip blood. Her legs were so weak that she almost fell to the ground. She felt as if she was shaking all over, and she was completely resisting to be able to stand here.
"Say, where are the people locked up?"
Luo Luo glanced at Old Lady Ning, "I don't know." ”
Everyone in the hall, you look at me, I look at you, and someone immediately spoke, "Old lady, people like this can't ask anything without punishment." ”
"That's right, time is so urgent now, how can I have time to spend time with her here and torture her. ”
"We don't have much else in the Ning family, but the things used for interrogation and torture have been passed down from our ancestors, even ten tough guys can't stand it. ”
When the Qing Palace drama is being filmed here?
Luo Luo almost subconsciously spoke, "I really don't know." She had forgotten about her fear at the moment, and her mind was full of the word "torture". "I swear, I really don't know, but I can help you ask Ning...... Yes, sir, if I ask him, he will tell me, don't torture me in any way, otherwise I will be half dead, and I will not be able to help you ask. ”
She said all these words to Old Lady Ning alone, because she knew that Old Lady Ning was the biggest here, and it would not be as useful for others to say a hundred words as he said.
Who knew that Old Lady Ning hadn't spoken yet, but Ning Shenchuan, who was sitting on his lower left, spoke first. He smiled like a smiling tiger, his eyes were a little meaningful, "What a clever little girl, no wonder my nephew likes it." The gaze he looked at made Luo Luo a little furious, "But your idea seems to be good, but in fact, you just want to report to the head of the family." ”
Luo Luo's eyes wandered, "What letter can I report, for Mr., I am just an insignificant person, what is more important than the interests of the family, with Mr.'s character, he must have other plans, otherwise he will definitely not recklessly detain Aso Eisuke." She remembered that it was said in the book that in the end, it only took three months for Ning Shi to overthrow the entire Aso family.
Ning Shenchuan let out an "oh" sound, "It seems that you don't know yet, but the head of the family has already publicly announced the news that he intends to welcome you into the door." ”
This time, Luo Luo was completely stunned, this is too fast, didn't the heroine in the original book wait a few years to successfully marry Ning Shi? Even if she transferred the role of the heroine, she couldn't help but play her cards according to common sense.
Old lady Ning couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard this, he had a headache when he mentioned this matter, he didn't want any of the ladies to be good, but in the end he chose a yellow-haired girl who was not even a small jasper, family background, ability, conversation, everything is not good, how can he be the housewife of the Ning family?
But when he is old, he can't resist the young man, he turned a blind eye when he thought of it, the child has a lot of responsibility for the absence of parents since he was a child, and later he was taught to look like he is now cold and ruthless and his six relatives do not recognize it, and he is even more responsible. Isn't it just a woman, so it's just that.
Who would have thought...... That's what happened!
Now the Aso family is aggressive, and the Ning family has to hand over people, and the Ning family is at a loss, but Ning Shi is soft and hard, and in desperation, there is today's move of "turning the tiger away from the mountain and inviting the king into the urn".
Ning Shi detained other people's grandsons, and he, who was a grandfather, had no choice but to detain his woman until he was willing to let him go.
"Look," Ning Shenchuan looked sorry for his face, "The child is a good child, it's a pity that it's ......" he said and looked at Old Lady Ning with a dodgy gaze.
This move aroused the curiosity of Old Lady Ning, and the Buddha beads in her hand were twisted one by one, "What is a pity?"
"This ......," Ning Shenchuan muttered, "Brother doesn't dare to say it." ”
Old lady Ning had a hunch that it was not a good thing, he glanced at Luo Luo in the hall quietly, and still opened his mouth to order, "Say." ”
Ning Shenchuan had no choice but to reluctantly arch his hand, and then sighed, "Hey, let's take a look for yourself." He said and handed a document to Mrs. Ning, seeing that everyone in the hall was confused, he continued to explain, "This is a diagnosis certificate sent to me anonymously, just the day after the head of the family announced that he was going to marry this Miss Zhong in the hall, the matter is serious, I immediately sent someone to check, who knew that this private counseling center was already empty, but I didn't dare to delay, and immediately sent people at home and abroad to find this psychiatrist, and was finally found by my people yesterday." ”
Luo Luo had a bad thought flashing for a moment, she remembered that Ning Shi had taken her to a psychological counseling center, and she had asked about the diagnosis afterwards, but Ning Shi avoided talking about it several times, she thought that not talking about it meant that it was okay, and she forgot about it over time.
After a short period of thought, the doctor had been invited, it was the doctor who joked with her in blunt Chinese, but now he looks in a terrible state, and he is not surprised to see her, but he looks away indifferently.
"I'm sorry Miss Zhong, although my husband gave me a lot of money and told me never to come back, I still have to tell you responsibly in my duty as a doctor that you have been diagnosed with a split personality and a serious mental illness. ”
Everyone present was in an uproar, only the old lady Ning, who was sitting in the first place, was still calm, but it was only superficial, and it was impossible not to be shocked in his heart.
"This ...... How can the head of the Ning family allow people with mental illness to serve around him?"
"If you have children in the future, this disease will be inherited!"
"Ridiculous! ridiculous......"
Immediately, someone began to question, "You mean that the head of the Ning family knows that this Miss Zhong has a mental illness, and still plans to marry her regardless of the consequences, right?"
Dr. Smith nodded, "Yes, Mr. gave me a lot of money and told me that no one should leak this matter. ”
"Then why did you say it again today?" Ning Shenchuan asked.
"Because I found out not long ago that someone was assassinating me, and it made me live in fear every day. I think about it, but it's just my husband. ”
"You are talking nonsense!" Luo Luo subconsciously retorted, "If Ning Shi really wants to kill you, let alone going abroad, you won't even have a chance to go out!"
Smith's expression suddenly paused, and his face instantly turned pale.
However, the other people present were not concerned about this, what they really cared about was that as the head of the Ning family, they knew that this matter would harm the interests of the family, but they still did it, what qualifications did this person have to serve as the head of the Ning family?
Everyone, you and I have condemned one after another, and the old lady who is highly respected and respected Runing can no longer be suppressed.
Luo Luo's gaze swept over the elders of the law enforcement clan who were denouncing the left and right in the hall, and then swept over the old lady Ning who was sitting in the upper hall, and the fingers that had been twisting the Buddha beads since the beginning accelerated more and more, although his face was silent, he was actually thinking about the way to suppress it in his heart. The last thing she looked at was Ning Shenchuan, who had revealed this shocking secret, and her face was full of worry at this time, and it was simply a shame not to win an Oscar.
She only now understands that everything that happened today is a game, at first she thought that she was the only one in the game, but now it seems that everyone present, even Old Lady Ning, is just a pawn in this game.
Ning Shi detained Aso Yingsuke, and the old lady Ning was forced to detain her under family pressure, wanting to threaten Ning Shi to release her. And Ning Shenchuan ruthlessly exposed the fact that she had mental problems in front of all the high-ranking clan elders in the Law Enforcement Hall.
Ning Shi is the real target of this bureau.
Once the crime is confirmed, not only will the position of the head of the Ning family not be guaranteed, but even he himself may not be able to get out.
But she was just as shocked in the end, if what Dr. Smith said was true, then how did Ning Shi make this difficult decision at that time?
She knows that she is not sick, but the world does not know, and Ning Shi does not know, mental illness is hereditary, for a family like the Ning family, a humble background may not be an insurmountable gap, but the defect of genes is definitely a barrier that cannot be crossed.
It turned out that unconsciously, Ning Shi had done so much for her.
It turned out that Ning Shi liked her so much.
Although he is domineering, indifferent, sometimes even unkind, never knows how to respect others, selfish, selfish, self-serving, unaccustomed freak and mania, even takes her as a bet, does not go home on the grounds that he is busy with work, always does things to her without her consent, and shoots her, she used to really hate this person to death.
But now, so many shortcomings have become light, if the previous self still has a knot, then from this moment is like a pair of scissors, cutting the rope tied to the dead knot.
All she thought about was Ning Shi, who appeared in front of her again and again when she was most dangerous, and Ning Shi, who appeared in front of her when she was most embarrassed, domineering, awkward, but gentle.
He's a good guy to rely on and a very reliable person.
She rolled her eyes, trying to calm the emotions she was constantly trying to surge. Taking a deep breath, her chest heaving, she used the loudest voice she could make in her life, wrapped in the most ample courage, and shouted, "I did it!"
The noisy hall fell silent for a moment, and even the twisting rosary in Old Lady Ning's hand stopped.
Xiao Qi once told her that the Law Enforcement Hall has always been a mysterious and terrifying existence, and even the head of the Ning family has to give three points when he encounters it.
She raised her eyes to look at the clan elders who were high up in the sky and their nostrils were dissatisfied, and said coldly to Dr. Smith, "Let me ask you, did Ning Shi personally give you the money?"
Dr. Smith thought for a moment, then shook his head decisively, "No, it's his men. ”
Luo Luo snorted coldly, "It's me." ”
Everyone was shocked again, everyone, you look at me, I look at you, with a suspicious look on your face.
Luo Luo doesn't care what others think, only she thinks it's herself, so the initiator is herself. If you want to deceive others, you must first deceive yourself.
"My husband was suspicious of me, so I paid more attention after he took me to psychological counseling, but in fact, my husband didn't see the final test results, and I secretly burned the document, and then I bribed one of his subordinates and sent Dr. Smith in his name, because there is a person like Mr. who is deterred, and Dr. Smith will never dare to talk nonsense. ”
Ning Shenchuan sneered, "Then why did you send someone to assassinate Dr. Smith again? Isn't that inconsistent?"
Luo Luo turned his cold gaze to Ning Shenchuan again, there was such a big trouble today, it is estimated that she is more than lucky, she has seen Ning Shi's means of punishing Bo Yang, even if it is cruel and terrifying, it must indeed be as he said that his subordinates are merciful, and the gang of people in the Law Enforcement Hall, I am afraid that they will really be more auspicious.
It's just that I don't know if she will be resurrected to the time before death like before, so won't she have to be in a cycle of painful torture all the time?
However...... None of that matters.
She looked at Ning Shenchuan without blinking, firmly remembering his appearance, "Women all hold grudges." She smiled suddenly, her smile a little pale, "Women are all contradictions, I just do what I want." She said apologetically tugging at Dr. Smith, "I'm sorry, but I was so scared that you'd leak this secret, so I sent someone to assassinate you." ”
"Is it really you? really?" said Dr. Smith, then looked incredulous.
Old lady Ning, who was sitting at the top, suddenly stood up, and her voice was like a bell, "Enough." He walked slowly to Luo Luo, his eyes were as sharp as ever, his eyes were deep, like a deep pool, and Ning Shi's eyes looked a little similar.
"Do you have anything else to say before you die?" he asked suddenly.
Luo Luo looked back at him, and at this moment, she suddenly didn't feel that the old man in front of her was anything terrible. What a ridiculous thought, "Tell Ning Shi that the person I hate the most in my life is him." "If she could, she really didn't want to wear it in and didn't want to run into him.
Old Lady Ning nodded, "Seeing that you are only a half-sized girl, I will give you a decent way to die, Ning Xian." ”
"Yes!" Ning Xian immediately replied in a loud voice.
Old Lady Ning slowly turned his back, and the moment he turned around, Luo Luo clearly saw that the rosary in his hand finally turned again.
"Throw yourself into the well. The old man's voice was unusually firm.
