1003 Chapter 1003
Ning Keke smiled awkwardly and said proudly, “Of course. The Ning family is one of the best. You can try to join the Ning family. I can ask my father to help you.”
Jiang Ming just wanted to laugh at her words.
They were so fake.
“It’s not difficult for us to join the Ning family. As long as you give us your peerless treasures, we’ll agree to join your family.”
Sikong Wuyuan felt that they had suffered too much this time.
No matter what, they had to get some benefits from the Ning family.
Ning Keke shook her head and said, “You are not strong enough to get the Ning family’s peerless treasures. If you want, I can give you some of the Ning family’s herbs. Although these herbs are not as precious as their peerless treasures, they can also improve your abilities and nourish your bodies.”
“Are you going to give us herbs or poison?”
Jiang Ming did not trust Ning Ke at all and asked her directly.
“Let’s go. Don’t pay attention to her.”
“You’re really asking for death!”
Ning Keke took out a whip from somewhere.
The whip was full of thorns. She raised her hand to hit Jiang Ming and the other two.
Jiang Ming did not dodge. Instead, he grabbed the whip.
The strange thing was that when the thorns touched his hand, they shrank back and disappeared.
Sikong Wuyuan looked confused.
The power of Ning Caichen was really unfathomable. How could the thorns retract automatically?
In fact, Jiang Ming used his spiritual energy to break the thorns.
It was just that in the eyes of others, they were automatically retracted.
“How can my whip listen to you?”
Ning Keke was shocked.
Jiang Ming laughed at her words.
After all, she was a spoiled young lady who had no knowledge at all.
Yuan Hehe shook his head. “Miss Ning, I advise you to go back and train some more. Don’t embarrass yourself here.”
Ning Keke realized that something was wrong. She clapped her hands and said, “This is the Ning family’s territory. If you want to go out, you have to listen to me. It’s not easy for you to come all the way here. Why don’t you come to the Ning family as guests? The Ning family will treat you well.”
Cherry, the servant beside her, also chimed in. “Yes, Miss Ning has always been warm and kind to others. You will be taken good care of.”
“Let’s not act stupid.”
Sikong Wuyuan grinned and released a ring from his hand.
The ring directly bound Ning Keke. It was a very tight grip. She immediately felt out of breath. She said with difficulty, “I am the Ning family’s biological daughter. If you kill me, the Ning family will not let you off.”
Jiang Ming was already used to hearing such words. He was about to speak when he was interrupted by another person.
The old madam of the Shang family walked over slowly. Master Ning was standing beside her.
“Jiu Zhu, I’m here to bring you home. The Ning family has gone too far. I’ve already punished some of their people. Jiu Zhu, how do you feel? Are you injured?”
Shang Lele also came up to Jiang Ming and sized him up. She looked worried, and it did not seem insincere.
Jiang Ming felt uncomfortable for no reason.
He felt that Shang Lele was looking at him in a lewd manner.
“Master Ning, I’ve said it before. If Ning Caichen is injured, I’ll do my best to deal with the Ning family!” the old madam snorted coldly, her eyes fixed on Master Ning.
Master Ning did not expect her to do so much for Jiang Ming. He coughed and said, “How is that possible? Keke was just having a small argument with Ning Caichen. Madam Shang, why don’t you have a cup of tea with Ning Caichen and discuss the marriage between your daughter and my son, how about it?”
“I think the Ning family is too disrespectful to the guests of the Shang family. Let’s forget about this marriage.”
The old madam walked in front of Jiang Ming and did not look at Master Ning again.
“Jiu Zhu, I’m sorry I’m late. Let’s go.”
She heaved a sigh of relief.
The Life Tree could not be gone just like that. Master Ning really did not have any foresight!
“No problem. It’s just that there are some things that the Ning family doesn’t seem to understand.”
Jiang Ming turned his head and looked at Master Ning.
Just like Sikong Wuyuan said, if they did not get anything in return, it would be too much of a loss.
“What do you mean? Do you want to take something from the Ning family? Speaking of this thing, the Shang family has a hundred times more than the Ning family, you can discuss it with the Shang family head.”
Master Ning tried to divert Jiang Mi’s attention, but he was starting to get irritated.
Judging from the situation, it was obvious that Ning Caichen wanted to bleed them dry.
This was not his problem, but the problem of those servants. Why should the Ning family bear the responsibility for it?
“So, you don’t want to take any responsibility for all of this?”
Sikong Wuyuan pursed his lips in displeasure.
They had suffered so many grievances, but Master Ning did not care at all.
“That’s right,” Yuan Hehe added. “No matter what, Master Ning has to give us an explanation. What do you think?”
Naturally, the old madam was biased toward Jiang Ming and the other two. She patted the dust off her clothes and said, “Master Ning, what Ning Caichen said is not wrong. You should compensate them. As for the Shang family’s things, Ning Caichen can use them as he pleases, he doesn’t need the Shang family to give them to him.”
Jiang Ming could not help but be stunned for a moment.
He was not a member of the Shang family, was it worth it for this old madam to do this?
Or was there something on him that was extremely tempting to her?
However, he could not understand.
What could he have that was worth her being like this? Except for his life, of course…
At the end of his thought, Jiang Ming quickly rejected it.
That should not be possible. His life was not worth anything.
Sikong Wuyuan had been looking at the old madam.
He was as confused as Jiang Ming.
He knew Jiang Ming’s strength, but he also felt that the Shang family did not lack powerful people.
“Then what do you want?”
No matter how unwilling he was, Master Ning could only compromise.
