Chapter 424 – I know a secret (1)

Ning Yuxuan didn't agree with Ji Man's words . Recollecting Nie Sangyu's past conduct and deeds, he still didn't like her very much . The only thing that he thought was precious about her was her genuine heart .

Perhaps, that was just the work of fate . He had gotten Ji Man because he had lost Nie Sangyu . Although Ji Man was a celestial immortal, as long as he didn't allow her to fulfill Nie Sangyu's wish, she wouldn't be able to leave .

Since it was like that, he would be able to keep her here for a while .

“In the beginning, I didn't especially dislike Sangyu,” Ning Yuxuan said in a low voice, “Even though she was lacking in manners and a bit unruly, she could still be considered to have a kind heart . But, after she entered my household, she was very jealous . Behind my back, she sent away servants girls that had been serving me for a long time . She bullied the honored concubines that entered the household after her . It's because of these things that I slowly lost any goodwill towards her . ”

Ji Man nodded . She knew the things that Nie Sangyu had done . From the perspective of someone in ancient times, Nie Sangyu had indeed acted immaturely . Moreover, she had been overbearing and too willful . It wasn't unexpected that her husband wouldn't be fond of her .

That foolish girl had used the wrong methods to love someone and gradually wander off from the correct path .

“So, do you like the current me then?” Separated by the railing, Ji Man looked at him and very charmingly fluttered her eyelashes . “I don't compete or feel jealous of other women . You can have as many concubines as you want . As long as those women leave me alone, I won't bicker with them either . Isn't this the ideal example of a main wife?”

Ning Yuxuan didn't smile . He expressionlessly glanced at her, then shook his head and said, “That's not good at all . ”

He couldn't sense her feelings at all . Really, this wasn't good at all .

Ji Man curled her lip and mumbled, “You're so hard to please . You don't like this, and you don't like that . ”

Ning Yuxuan lightly snorted . Looking at her slightly messy hair, he pursed his lips and asked, “Do you want to leave here?”

They had been locked up here for so long . The average woman would have already fallen apart . It was only her that could continue to calmly talk with him every day .

“I thought about it . ” Ji Man helplessly said, “But since the emperor won't let me go, I probably won't be able to leave here until I can figure out a good plan . ”

“You're not tempted by the emperor's proposal?” It was rare for Marquis Moyu to joke . “The emperor's court is very wealthy . ”

Ji Man rolled her eyes . “What use do I have for wealth? It's not something I can take with me . Even if I can take it with me, the inner palace is a nest of rouge-wearing vipers . Besides, the wealth I can acquire as his consort might not even be as much as the profit I earn from selling rice . More importantly, I don't like…”

She didn't like Zhao Zhe, who looked at her like she was a valuable machine that could be exploited .

Ning Yuxuan smiled . He turned his head away to secretly smile with great gratification .
