Chapter 196: Strange Stories about Costume Dramas
After hearing what Cao Rui said, Yan Ji's mood suddenly became extremely complicated.
Because she still has many years of affection for Nu Dahai. After all, the two of them have been through many ups and downs together and have raised children together. Those memories cannot be erased just by saying so.
However, Nu Dahai now wants to divorce his wife and remarry for Xinyue, even disregarding the future of their children, which makes her feel extremely heartbroken and desperate.
Yan Ji's heart beat faster and her palms sweated slightly, but she tried hard to maintain her outward calm. The eyes that once belonged only to Nu Dahai were now filled with pain and entanglement.
After a long time, she took a deep breath, held Cao Rui's hand tightly, as if seeking some kind of support, and said slowly:
"Master, for the sake of the children, I am willing to sever my relationship with Nu Dahai. However, I hope you can keep your word and protect the three of us, mother and son."
"it is good!"
After Cao Rui agreed, he heard the system prompt sound, and the exclusive family role of the male owner of the General’s Mansion, [Talent: We are a Family] was successfully unlocked.
"Ma'am, tonight is our big day. I think we need to make a big fuss about it. What do you think?"
"Master, I will do whatever you say."
Yan Ji lowered her head shyly, knowing that this step would mean a complete farewell to the past and a clear line between her and the man who had once loved her and also deeply hurt her - Nu Dahai.
As soon as the two of them opened the door and went out to talk, Jiyuan and Luolin were immediately overjoyed and took it upon themselves to arrange their mother's wedding.
That night, the general's mansion was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns, and drums and music played, creating a festive and lively scene.
Luo Lin directed the servants to busy themselves with decorating the bridal chamber. Red silk hung all over the corridors and festive lanterns emitted a gentle glow.
Ji Yuan led the guards to guard the ceremonial gate in the center of the general's mansion. They were all terrified, fearing that Nu Dahai would bring his men to kill them.
Fortunately, Cao Rui has already gone there to negotiate, but I don’t know how the situation is going now?
……
Cao Rui came to the other side of the general's mansion. Only a few lanterns were lit, making it very dark.
Just like the mood of Nu Dahai who was eliminated at this moment.
Cao Rui truly felt the horror of [Gift: We Are a Family], which distorted people's cognition to such a bizarre degree that it could be called a costume version of a horror story.
Decided!
Unless absolutely necessary, it is better to use it less in the future.
It was dark at night. Cao Rui walked through the winding corridors and headed leisurely towards Nu Dahai's residence.
From a distance, you can see people guarding the place, and the atmosphere is cold and solemn.
There were people constantly coming in and out.
Cao Rui thought, are they holding a meeting, preparing to attack and kill him at the wedding?
He cleared his throat and said:
"General Nu Dahai, I'm here to give you the invitation. Please be sure to attend my wedding with Yan Ji."
There is nothing more murderous and heartbreaking than this!
"..."
The two guards at the door were dumbfounded. How dare they come to provoke him? They really are not afraid of death.
One of them hurried in to report.
The other person stared at Cao Rui closely. Even though in his mind, Cao Rui was already dead and would be chopped into pieces before death, he still did not dare to be careless.
When the guard entered the room to report, he happened to hear Nu Dahai say viciously:
"I will chop off the lowly one-money man's head at the wedding tonight, when he is happiest and most proud! I will take back my woman and the general's mansion!"
The confidants all nodded in agreement, their faces full of fierceness.
Just then, the guard reported that Cao Rui had arrived.
"..."
The atmosphere suddenly felt extremely weird.
Originally they thought Cao Rui was a madman who risked being hacked to death to snatch the general's wife and children.
The key was successful!
Now, I suddenly feel that Cao Rui might be an extraordinary person, which is why he behaves so differently from others.
Nu Dahai was so angry that he ran to the yard outside and saw Cao Rui. He was instantly furious and wanted to do something evil.
"You bastard, do you really think my knife is not sharp enough?"
He suddenly drew out the sword from his waist, and with a flash of the sword, he rushed straight towards Cao Rui.
His cronies wanted to help but were stopped.
Nu Dahai wanted to monopolize the pleasure of revenge and wanted to see panic, fear, regret, splattered blood, mutilated limbs, and painful wails on Cao Rui's face.
However, he saw that Cao Rui was so calm and composed.
"Why aren't you afraid?"
Nu Dahai's desires were not satisfied. Under the dim light of the lantern, he looked like an enraged lion.
Cao Rui quickly told Nu Dahai why, easily dodged the blade, and then counterattacked with lightning speed.
He kicked the knife out of Nu Dahai's hand, then kicked Nu Dahai to the ground, and then stepped firmly on him.
"you!"
Nu Dahai's eyes widened, unable to believe that he was defeated so easily by Cao Rui, a penniless man he once regarded as a piece of trash.
"General!"
Nu Dahai's cronies did not expect this result. After a moment of shock, they immediately rushed forward to rescue people.
Cao Rui did the same thing without even moving a step, and used Nu Dahai's sword to chop down all these guys who overestimated their own capabilities.
"You are very lucky. Today is my wedding day. No blood should be seen!"
This is a lie.
The real reason was that Cao Rui wanted to make good use of the waste, so he asked Nu Dahai to help unlock another talent, The Lone Star of Destiny, and that's why he didn't start a killing spree for the time being.
Cao Rui squatted down and said to the back of Nu Dahai's head:
"Nudahai, after a unanimous vote by the family members of the General's Mansion, from now on, your status as the male owner of the General's Mansion will be revoked, and the General's Mansion will be divided into two."
"..."
Nu Dahai felt extremely humiliated and struggled fiercely, but Cao Rui stepped on him tightly. Even if he used all his strength, he could not move at all.
Cao Rui straightened his clothes, stood up and left.
On the way back, I ran into Princess Xinyue head-on.
It turned out that she had seen from her attic another bustling scene in the general's mansion and felt strange, so she quickly sent her maid to inquire.
He was shocked to learn that Yan Ji had abandoned Nu Dahai and chosen Cao Rui, and that they were going to get married and enter the bridal chamber tonight.
Xinyue was afraid that Nu Dahai would lose his mind due to anger and massacre the general's mansion, so she hurried over to dissuade him.
She never expected to run into Cao Rui. She opened her arms to stop Cao Rui and said angrily:
"What on earth do you want to do? Do you have to tear a good family apart to be happy?"
"Hahaha……"
Cao Rui couldn't help laughing. Everyone else had the right to accuse, except Xinyue. He reminded:
"Princess Xinyue, you are the culprit! If you hadn't interfered with other people's families, how could this happen?"
After saying this, he pushed her away and left in big strides. On the wedding night, every moment of spring time is worth a thousand gold.
"..."
Xinyue looked unhappy. She opened her mouth to retort but didn't know where to start. She could only watch Cao Rui leave.
