Dali Duan's family is definitely an outlier among many wealthy families in China.

This may be related to the fact that in the foreign counterattack in the last century, except for Duan Lao's father and son, all the other men died on the battlefield, leaving only a bunch of orphans and widows in the family, and they had to let the women stand up, so the cultivation of female members was also very careful.

But once there are major interests that need to be captured, the core of the Duan family will not hesitate to sacrifice a female member.

Duan Xiangning, one of the "Four Phoenixes" of the Duan family in Dali, was also the first to be sacrificed.

Who made her the first of the four phoenixes in her age?

If Duan Xiangning was only twenty-three years old, then she would not have been regarded as a pioneer officer and sent to Jiangbei.

Duan Xiangning came to Jiangbei to develop, but was given high hopes by the Duan family, hoping that she could play her due role and make outstanding contributions to the expansion of the Duan family.

It's a pity that Duan Xiangning's performance in the past four years has disappointed the Duan family.

Especially last year, when the Duan family finally officially launched the plan to land in Jiangbei and sent Duan Xiangning to Qingshan to take office, she encountered Li Nannan and was defeated in the first battle.

The law of survival of the fittest is especially obvious in wealthy families with many elites but limited resources.

Duan Xiang condensed into an outcast and was excluded from the core of the Duan family's power.

And she has also become a shame for the other three phoenixes in the Duan family's four phoenixes - she can't even handle a scumbag, let alone the daughter of the Duan family in Dali in the future!

But just when Duan Xiangning was about to be buried from now on, Li Nannan appeared again.

That phone call was definitely a turning point for her to change her fate, making the core of the Duan family discover once again that she might still be a piece of gold.

Only then did a series of detailed plans be made around her.

Duan Xiangning's twists and turns of fate really responded to an old saying: "Success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He." ”

With a slight change, success is also Li Nannan, and defeat is also Li Nannan.

In tonight's painful choice, she unconsciously made so many preparations for Li Nannan's arrival, in fact, she cherished this opportunity quite a lot.

Catch it, and she will return to the core layer of the Dali Duan clan.

Fail, not only will she never be able to enter the core layer again, but she will be punished for disrespecting the orders of the Duan family.

With one side to return to glory and the other side to be punished, which one will she choose?

Duan Xiang hopes that this hall sister can be like the ancestors who sacrificed on the front line in the last century, and she can rather die for her own dignity than give in-

In that way, the limited resources of the Duan family will not be wasted by a waste who relies on hue to strive for progress.

It can be divided into the rest of the Duan family.

But Duan Xiangning disappointed Duan Xiang.

Instead of bravely accepting the challenge of tragic fate, she chose to live in humiliation.

Especially when Duan Xiang used infrared night vision goggles and saw from the window that Duan Xiangning deliberately did not close the curtains, she was lying on the bed in revealing clothes like a shameless bitch, and when she seduced that Li Nannan, she was both angry and happy in her heart.

was angry because she felt that Duan Xiangning had lost the face of the entire Dali Duan family.

Happiness - It is of course nice to be able to see with your own eyes a competitor who enjoys the qualifications to compete for resources with you, and in private it turns out to be so ugly.

It's just that she didn't be happy for long, she brought Xiaodong, Qingshan's henchman, and threw away the headset with a scream.

Then, as if he had expected such a long time ago, Prince Duan indifferently accused her that she should not treat Li Nannan as a fool.

According to Emperor Duan's intentions, there is no need to monitor how Duan Xiangning had a tryst with Li Nannan.

He believed that Duan Xiangning, who had no way out, would not joke with her own future, and would definitely be able to make the right choice.

What's more, long before she made a choice, she had already had an affair with Li Nannan, didn't she?

What she's doing now is just a matter of course.

Anyway, she doesn't have any feelings for the husband of the Jinghua family.

Otherwise, there would have been children long ago.

But Duan Xiang resolutely disagreed, and despite the persuasion of Prince Duan, he insisted on sending someone to install a bugging device in Duan Xiangning's house, and asked her not to open the window tonight, so as to facilitate her observation of her unswerving contribution to the Duan family-

Why did she have to do this, Prince Duan knew very well.

It is nothing more than to prevent Duan Xiangning's status in the Duan family, which will surpass her.

As long as she grasps these materials, it is equivalent to grasping Duan Xiangning's shortcomings, and whatever she is asked to do in the future, she has to do it obediently.

For Duan Xiang's approach, Prince Duan was not too opposed.

Since he was sensible, he began to compete with everyone around him for limited resources, which is the only magic weapon for the Dali Duan family to have many talents over the generations.

This will certainly dilute the family affection - whoever wants to enjoy it will automatically withdraw from the ranks that are eager to move forward.

What's more, no matter how hard Duan Xiang and the others tried, they would not be able to threaten Prince Duan's status as the third-generation head of the Duan family.

There are only three generations of the Duan family in Dali, only three men: Duan Lao, Duan Second Generation, and Duan Prince.

The absolute three generations of single inheritance, which makes his future position as the head of the family unshakable.

That's why he was able to maintain a peaceful mind when Duan Xiang insisted on doing this.

The fact that Xiaodong's ears were bleeding and lying on the table in pain and moaning and groaning in pain proved that Prince Duan's words to warn Duan Xiang were not wrong.

Since his warning was not wrong, then of course Duan Xiang was wrong.

Duan Xiang bit her lip hard, her towering chest rose and fell violently, and the nails of her fists clenched had already pierced her palms.

Of course, she had heard that Li was a scumbag and believed that he was very powerful.

Otherwise, how could Jing Hongming help him like that, and how could he survive the tsunami on the three islands of Yingmidao?

But whether he is powerful or not, what does it have to do with Duan Xiang, who tried to catch her shortcomings in order to prevent being surpassed by Duan Xiangning?

When he found out that he was being wiretapped, he warned him directly, or just threw his lipstick out the window.

Why do you want to slam your throat and deaf Xiaodong's ears!

Xiaodong was the elite special forces she brought back when she retired from the Southwest Military Region, and she was trained as an absolute confidant, otherwise she would not have let him participate in the intrigue between the third generation of the Duan family.

With a single voice, he wasted Duan Xiang's absolute henchmen who had worked so hard to cultivate, so who and who wouldn't be angry?

Glancing at his cousin, who was wearing a training uniform that couldn't hide her fiery figure, Prince Duan sighed: "Alas, Duan Xiang, the mission is over." Just as this incident has never happened, especially after seeing Li Nannan tomorrow, don't show the slightest dissatisfaction or hostility. ”

"Is my people just ruined for nothing?"

Duan Xiang turned his head to look at him and asked coldly.

Prince Duan frowned, and still said in a faint voice: "Then what do you want?" Take someone over now and avenge your people? ”

Duan Xiang didn't say anything.

Of course she wouldn't dare do that.

Let Duan Xiangning take the initiative to hook up with Li Nannan, but Duan Lao decided, whoever dares to destroy it will become the sinner of the Duan family.

"Remember, I don't want anything to go wrong with you at your wedding tomorrow."

Prince Duan's voice became cold, he got up from the sofa, and walked slowly to the door: "You can only put on gorgeous new clothes and appear at the wedding of Yue Zitong and the Helan family as a management guest from the Duan clan in Dali." Of course, you can say no. ”

Duan Xiang didn't dare to say no.

Because the other two phoenixes in the Duan family's four phoenixes are expecting her to make a mistake.

Don't look at it, he was just regarded as the number two person, and followed Prince Duan to Beijing to attend Yue Zitong's wedding, which was also what Duan Xiang tried his best to fight for.

She didn't dare to make any mistakes at Yue Zitong's wedding, but she dared to say loudly when Prince Duan opened the door: "Could it be that if I swallow this breath, Li Nannan won't know that we have monitored him and Duan Xiangning?" ”

"Two corrections."

Prince Duan, who had already stepped out of the door, said without looking back: "First, you are monitoring them, not us. Second, as long as you don't show any hostility towards Xiaodong because of his injury, Xiangning won't say it, and he won't say it. It's called face, it's just a piece of paper. If you don't go to pierce it, hello, I'm good, everyone's good. If you go to pierce it, then it can only be that you are not good. I hope you will remember what I said. Otherwise, you would advise Grandpa to disqualify you from attending a family meeting. ”

After saying this, without waiting for Duan Xiang to say anything, Prince Duan closed the door and left.

Duan Xiang bit his lip hard, and was stunned for a long time before waving his hand violently!

Sincere!

There was a soft sound, and suddenly there was a saber on the door panel.

The sharp blade of the saber shone in the light.

Of course, Li Nannan couldn't see this cold light.

After smashing the lipstick, he turned off the lamp in his bedroom.

In the room, suddenly plunged into darkness, but there was the sound of Xiangning's nervous breathing, which came from the bed.

She was nervous, of course, not because after the lights went out, Li Nannan would pounce on her like a hungry tiger, lift her black low-cut backless short skirt, carry her two beautiful legs, and stand in front of the bed and hit her violently.

She was nervous because Li Nannan found out that someone was eavesdropping on their conversation.

This will make Li Nannan, who didn't want to accept the Duan family's initiative to extend an olive branch, very angry, and will turn around and leave.

In that case, she failed.

Since then, Duan Xiangning will never have a bright future, and after suffering the punishment of the family, she can only nest in the small family of Jinghua for the rest of her life, obediently being a good wife and mother.

You can't be obedient.

What qualifications does an abandoned son who has been completely abandoned by the Duan clan of Dali have the respect of a third-rate small family?

Li Nannan didn't leave, but he didn't come either, he just stood in front of the window that had closed the curtains, silently.

"He's definitely weighing up, go, or stay."

When Duan Xiangning was thinking about it so nervously in her heart, her right foot loosened, and with a loud click, the big red high heels fell to the ground, and the sound shattered the heavy depression in the room.

She hopes to use this voice to remind men that there is a delicate beautiful lady on the bed, waiting for him to gallop on horseback.

Li Nannan seemed to understand her hint and left the window in the dark.

"Whew."

Duan Xiangning breathed a sigh of relief, and when she raised her hand and touched her forehead, she found that cold sweat had already broken out.

But as soon as she took a breath, the nerves in her whole body tensed violently.

Because she found that Li Nannan did not walk to the bedside, but to the door.

"He's going to give up on me!"

This desperate thought flashed through Duan Xiangning's mind like lightning, making her no longer able to maintain the calm she should have, and she suddenly rolled over from the bed and got up, stumbling after her.

Li Nannan was just about to stretch out his hand to open the door, but was hugged by Duan Xiangning from behind and knelt on the ground.

"Don't, don't go."

Duan Xiangning's cheek was pressed against his left leg, and tears of despair flowed down his leg, quacking and pleading.

"Go to bed and get a good night's sleep."

Li Nannan lowered his head, rubbed his right hand on the woman's delicate hair, and said softly.

"I'm not going, I'm not going. Don't go, really don't go. ”

Duan Xiangning shook her head vigorously, stood up and lifted her miniskirt, untied the belt of Li Nannan's nightgown, and stuck it on him desperately, and said in a trembling voice: "Come, come, come and do it-"
