Chapter 975 Humble Ningguang
Accompanied by her brother "Kong", Paimeng and Shenhe, Ying happily took her lovely daughter "Xi" and temporarily left the Qun Yu Pavilion and went to Bubu Lu for a physical examination.
On the other side, Shao Yun followed Ying's previous instructions and went to find Ningguang without stopping.
At this moment, Ningguang was sitting alone at her desk, frowning slightly, feeling a little anxious.
She wondered how she should please Shao Yun when he came back.
How can one properly express one's "loyalty" to the person who holds the source of one's power?
Is it to offer up one's own mountains of wealth?
Or should I dedicate myself to him as a "slave"?
As long as she can get his support back, she will do anything no matter the cost!
Just as Ningguang was lost in thought, she suddenly looked up and found that Shao Yun had quietly stood in front of her without her knowing when.
This sudden scene made Ningguang's body tremble violently, and she almost stood up from her seat.
At this moment, her throat was dry from nervousness. She swallowed hard and asked stutteringly:
"Mr. Shao Yun, do you...do you have anything to say?"
Shao Yun didn't answer Ningguang's question immediately. Instead, he looked thoughtfully at the pile of documents on her desk, then said slowly,
"Are you busy right now?"
Ningguang heard this and quickly raised her hand to shove the documents on the desk aside. She forced a smile that was uglier than crying and said calmly,
"Oh, no...it's okay, Mr. Shao Yun. Just let me know if you have anything to say. Is there anything Ningguang can help me with?"
Seeing that Ningguang had some time, Shao Yun said seriously, "Since you have some time, can we talk?"
When Ningguang heard that Shao Yun wanted to talk to her, her heart skipped a beat.
She keenly realized that this might be the conversation that would determine her fate, and she immediately put in 100% of her attention.
"Well, okay... There are too many people here, let's go to the side room to talk." As she said that, Ningguang stood up, stretched out her hand, and asked Shao Yun to leave.
Shao Yun looked at Ningguang and asked her to be alone with him, and recalled the time when Ningguang seduced him.
I'm a little confused...
However, on second thought, Ningguang was not the kind of woman who would make the same mistake twice, so she agreed.
"Okay, let's go..."
……
Qun Yu Pavilion, the wing room next to Ningguang's bedroom.
Ningguang opened the door first and invited Shao Yun in. After making sure that no one was eavesdropping outside, she carefully closed the door.
After hearing the door close behind him, Shao Yun was silent for a while, thinking about how to talk to Ningguang.
He took a deep breath and slowly turned around.
"I want to say..."
However, just as he opened his mouth, he suddenly paused. The reason was simple: Ningguang was already kneeling on the ground with her forehead pressed against her hands, her entire body completely prostrated on the ground.
She pressed her waist down hard and raised her thighs slightly, hinting that she wanted Shao Yun to enjoy her body.
A hint of surprise flashed in Shao Yun's eyes. He stared at Ningguang and saw an expression of humility and submissiveness on her face, as if showing her submission to him.
"Wait a minute, what are you doing?"
Ningguang, who was prostrating herself on the ground, raised her head slightly, a hint of fear in her eyes, and tried her best to act as humble as a "slave".
"Is there any problem?" Her voice trembled, as if she was afraid of angering Shao Yun.
Shao Yun raised his hand, pointed at Ningguang's current posture, and asked curiously, "Why are you kneeling down? And in such a strange posture?"
Ningguang's body trembled slightly, and she opened her lips slightly, wanting to explain something, but she seemed to have no idea where to start.
Finally, Ningguang prostrated herself on the ground with her head lowered, her body trembling slightly as she let out a faint gasp.
"This is what a slave should do, Master." There was only humility and obedience in her voice.
Shao Yun looked at Ningguang, who was showing a "slave attitude" in front of him, with a helpless and speechless expression on his face.
"Ah... I just want to have a good chat with you. Get up and talk."
As he spoke, Shao Yun personally brought a stool for Ningguang, and then gestured for her to sit down, hoping that she could relax a little and communicate with him on an equal footing.
However, Ningguang, who was prostrating herself on the ground, shook her head slightly and continued to crawl on the ground.
Seeing this, Shao Yun raised his voice impatiently and said, "Don't be so nervous, sit down!"
Ningguang still did not stand up, continued to kneel on the ground, and said softly: "Ningguang is not qualified..."
Seeing that Ningguang was so stubborn, Shao Yun didn't waste any more words with her.
Since you, Ningguang, don't want to be decent, then I will help you be decent.
So he took a step forward, quickly reached out his hand, grabbed Ningguang's arm tightly, and pulled hard.
Ningguang's body was pulled up by Shao Yun. There was an expression of astonishment on her face, but her eyes were numb.
Shao Yun didn't care about that and just pressed Ningguang down on the stool.
Then he sat on the bed, ready to have an equal conversation with Ningguang.
……
At this moment, Ningguang sat uncomfortably on the stool, her right hand tightly hugging her left arm, looking very insecure.
She said in a slightly trembling voice: "I am still alive now, and it is all thanks to you. You are the source of my power, and I need to submit to you."
Shao Yun, who was sitting on the bed, gently touched his chin, organized his words, and said slowly:
"You just made some stupid mistakes. Considering how dedicated you are to taking care of my daughter, let bygones be bygones.
"To be precise, Zhongli and the immortals were protecting you at the time. Otherwise, I would have shot you dead."
Ningguang did not show any joy when she heard that Shao Yun had chosen to "bury the hatchet" with her.
Because on the surface, Shao Yun wanted to reconcile with himself, but the other meaning was that he would no longer care about himself, right?
Ningguang excitedly exaggerated Shao Yun's role, saying, "No, it was you. It was you who finally put aside our past grudges and took me away."
"Otherwise, Ningguang would have been punished by the immortal long ago."
Shao Yun looked at the excited Ningguang and waved his hand, trying to interrupt her. He said, "Hey, didn't I tell you? What did I say at the time..."
Before Shao Yun could finish his words, Ningguang suddenly jumped up from her seat.
"No, Mr. Shao Yun, I beg you, please don't give up on me!" Her voice was a little broken because she was too excited.
Shao Yun was startled by Ningguang's sudden reaction and tried to calm her down.
"Ningguang, don't get excited. Calm down!"
However, Ningguang couldn't calm down at this moment. The more she possessed, the more she feared losing it!
In particular, many of the benefits here were obtained under Shao Yun’s reputation!
"Ningguang, there's no way back now. Without your prestige, a mighty tiger can't stand up to a pack of wolves. Ningguang will be torn to pieces!"
Seeing this, Shao Yun softened his tone slightly and changed the subject.
"Wait a minute, there's something I can't figure out."
"Before you met me, weren't you already a Tianquan Star? Back then, you must have been quite powerful and prestigious."
"But why do you act like you can't live without me now?"
Ningguang was silent for a moment, then slowly raised her head, looked at Shao Yun with empty eyes, and said with a miserable laugh:
"Liyue does judge power by wealth, but the relationship is far more complicated than you might imagine."
She took a deep breath, calmed herself down a bit, and then briefly told Shao Yun about Liyue's politics.
"Money and power are interrelated, and they do influence each other."
"But the problem now is that I used your reputation to gain access to a huge amount of wealth that I originally had no control over."
"You are the symbol of power! The embodiment of force! Therefore, I absolutely cannot lose your support..."
Ningguang's voice trembled, and she choked back a sob before continuing, "If I show any weakness, this prosperous nation of Liyue will once again be plunged into the chaos of commercial warfare."
“No one wants to be inferior to others and live a life of inferiority!”
Although Ningguang had tried to simplify her words, Shao Yun still looked confused and found it difficult to fully understand.
"It sounds really complicated." Shao Yun shook his head helplessly.
Seeing that Shao Yun didn't understand, Ningguang used the simplest words to try to make him understand.
"To put it simply, I am now your appendage!"
……
Shao Yun looked at Ningguang, who was trying her best to show weakness and please him, and couldn't help but complain:
"Okay, stop showing weakness. I just want to end things with you. I don't mean anything else."
As soon as Shao Yun said this, he touched Ningguang's sensitive nerves and stepped on her red line!
Aren't you just ignoring me? Are you letting me fend for myself?
Ningguang knelt before Shao Yun, completely disregarding her image, and pleaded desperately, "Please! Don't abandon me!"
Immediately afterwards, Ningguang knelt on the ground like a puppy, put her hands on Shao Yun's knees, and slightly opened her cherry lips.
A pair of big watery eyes looked at Shao Yun pitifully, begging for his mercy.
Shao Yun looked at Ningguang who was trying her best to please him, and he could not help but slap his forehead helplessly and complained:
"What era is this? How long has slavery been abolished? I even tore down the jewelry shop, so why are you still acting like I'm a 'Dixie'?"
However, in the face of Shao Yun's complaints, Ningguang did not respond. She just silently pressed her face tightly against Shao Yun's knees.
"Please..." Ningguang's voice was choked with sobs, sounding heartbreaking.
Shao Yun was also a little upset at the moment, and asked impatiently: "Then what exactly do you want me to do?"
Ningguang slowly raised her head and said tearfully, "If you support Ningguang, please say it yourself. The position of Tianquan Star belongs only to you, Ningguang."
"As long as you ask, I will give you Mora, countless Mora!"
Then, she paused briefly, took a deep breath, and continued, "But if you don't support Ningguang, please kill me now."
"I'm really tired. I'm trapped in the cage of power and Mora, unable to extricate myself..."
"I really can't stand this feeling of anxiety anymore..."
In short, the wealthy businessmen in Liyue have no respect for Ningguang, but only for Shao Yun.
No one is convinced by Ningguang anymore...
