Chapter 56 Are you scared?
Ding Yucheng was quite surprised when he met Zhong Tian.
Although Zhongtian was rather thin, he was incredibly strong and his eyes often held a warm smile. However, after just a few days, the dark circles under Zhongtian's eyes could no longer be concealed, and he looked somewhat listless.
Was Xia Jin'an's sudden departure such a big blow to her?
"Young Master Ding" Zhong Tian stood there, watching Ding Yucheng walk out.
After thinking for a long time, I came up with a rather appropriate title. Ding Yucheng has already married Xia Fang, so he should be respectfully addressed as "my lord".
Ding Yucheng frowned; the way he addressed him as "Young Master Ding" sounded rather grating.
"Madam Zhong, you may call me Yu Cheng."
"Yu Cheng" was too ambiguous a name. Given her sensitive status, she had always maintained a respectful distance from Ding Yu Cheng. "I... I'll just call you Mr. Ding."
Ding Yucheng felt even angrier!
Zhong Tian is not a person who abides by etiquette; she has a deep disdain for so-called etiquette! If she were, she would not have married Xia Jin'an.
In his presence, she was like an old, pedantic scholar, terrifyingly so.
Therefore, Ding Yucheng's words carried a hint of sarcasm: "You wouldn't come to the Three Treasures Hall without a reason, would you, Madam Zhong!"
Nakata placed the gift he was holding on the table.
“Young Master Ding, it’s like this, I heard that your personal attendant Liang Yun appeared on the night Jin’an disappeared.”
Ding Yucheng sat in the main seat and glanced at the snacks on the table.
She slowly took a sip of tea, gently wiped the water from her lips with a handkerchief, and then looked at Zhong Tian: "I know what you want to ask? You want to know if that letter was given to Ding Yucheng by me? I'm telling you clearly now, it was!"
Ding Yucheng never intended to hide it!
Zhong Tian suddenly sat up from his chair, walked over to Ding Yucheng in a few steps, grasped Ding Yucheng's hand, and asked excitedly, "What did you say in your letter?"
Ding Yucheng frowned: "Let go, you're hurting me."
Seeing the redness and swelling on Ding Yucheng's hand, Zhong Tian immediately let go and whispered apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was just too anxious."
It's alright, he hasn't lost his composure and still knows how to apologize.
Are you sure you want to hear this? It's a scary story!
Zhongtian nodded firmly. "Do you remember Xia Wen? Xia Jin'an killed her, dismembered her on the spot, and even let wild boars devour Xia Wen's flesh and bones! It was on the mountain where you used to live."
"You are so slanderous!"
Ding Yucheng carefully examined Zhong Tian's appearance, feeling quite pleased with himself: "Zhong Tian, I naturally have witnesses. Remember Sha Chun? She witnessed everything!"
"Silly Chun?" That silly Chun who always took care of the wild boars on the mountain.
"She's in my residence. Shall I invite her out?" Ding Yucheng said with a smile.
Zhongtian slumped into a chair, feeling utterly dejected. She was certain it was true; her mind was blank, devoid of any thoughts.
But Ding Yucheng moved closer to her, looking at the despair on Zhong Tian's face as if he were admiring it, and he spoke each word with exceptional clarity.
“Zhongtian, the man beside you is a murderer! He has killed people with his own hands! His hands are stained with blood. When you were close to him, did you know he had such a vicious side? He is a venomous snake, stunningly beautiful, yet he takes lives! Now that you know, are you afraid?”
Are you scared? Are you scared? Leave Xia Jin'an and live a lonely life! Or, get back together with him.
Zhong Tian suddenly pushed Ding Yucheng away, who was getting closer and closer, and Ding Yucheng staggered back a few steps.
"Ding Yucheng, what role did you play in all of this?"
"Me? Of course, I'm on the side of justice!" Ding Yucheng chuckled, holding a handkerchief. His tone was light and smug. "I called Xia Jin'an over and told him that I had discovered the truth and that he should leave you. I also told him that if he marries you, he will share the blame with you!"
"You don't know this, do you? Husband and wife are one. The laws of Zhaohua Kingdom stipulate that if the husband is guilty, the wife must bear half the responsibility. If he commits murder, he should pay with his life. You should be exiled."
"Look how kind-hearted I am, otherwise, how would you have had the chance to come here and question me!"
Zhongtian listened to Ding Yucheng's insane ramblings.
She pinched the flesh of her palm hard with her nails, forcing herself to calm down. Now she finally understood why Ding Yucheng had left without saying goodbye.
"Where is he now? Do you know? Tell me!"
Ding Yucheng did not answer.
Nakata said urgently, "What do you want? I'll give you anything!"
Ding Yucheng changed the subject: "Zhongtian, do you know? Xia Fang is not a good man. Xia Fang is going to take a husband. She clearly liked me so much before, but she changed her mind so easily. I'm so sad."
Zhong Tian looked at Ding Yucheng: "Ding Yucheng, there are only three people here. Who are you pretending for?"
Zhongtian used to be in the mood to act with Ding Yucheng, but now she's not. Instead, she finds Ding Yucheng's self-pitying state very annoying.
Previously, she thought Ding Yucheng was a pitiful and helpless delicate flower who had been bullied by the original owner of the body.
But now that I think about it, they were probably looking for an opportunity to strike and kill him. It's likely that Ding Yucheng was involved in making Zhongtian come here.
Ding Yucheng was exposed, but he didn't get angry or embarrassed. He looked at Zhong Tian, and a hint of affection appeared in his eyes: "Xia Fang is about to take a husband. I think I can't be at a disadvantage. How about I find someone outside to be my lover?"
Zhongtian didn't speak, but continued to listen.
"I feel that you, Madam Zhong, are very suitable. As long as you agree to my request, I will tell you where Xia Jin'an is."
Nakata's face was expressionless: "Why me?"
"Because we know each other, it's easier to do!"
This world is too crazy. Have the men here gone mad from being oppressed for so long?
Xia Jin'an committed murder and dismemberment, while Ding Yucheng cheated on her husband with an affair!
"I'm leaving!"
Don't you want to know news about Xia Jin'an?
"Because you don't know where he is?"
Xia Jin'an was not a fool. Now that things had been exposed, he would not let anyone know his whereabouts again! He disappeared without a trace, completely severing ties with the past.
What a decisive person, what a...heartless person!
Zhongtian knew that the chances of Xia Jin'an showing up on his own were extremely slim, and the possibility of finding him was also very small.
She arrived at the entrance of the Xia residence and saw Fang Shilian with a radiant face, followed by a matchmaker, who was about to arrive.
She mustered her spirits and greeted him, "Lord Fang, this is..."
Fang Shilian smiled, somewhat embarrassed: "I have long admired my cousin Mu Ning, and today I have come to formally propose marriage!"
Besides suicide and becoming a monk, there is another path for Xia Muning: someone who doesn't mind what happened to him is willing to marry him!
Upon hearing this, Nakata suddenly felt a little awkward!
