For some reason, when Leng Qing saw the black cat in front of her, she felt an inexplicable sense of fear and sadness.

Fear? She wasn't even afraid of humans, so why should she be afraid of a cat?

As for the sadness, perhaps it was because when she was holding the vase that had been knocked down by the cat, and sprawled on the ground, frantically trying to grab it, Qin Zheng walked in with Ruan Lingyin in his arms.

When she lost her mind, the vase shattered loudly.

Leng Fei rushed over and pointed at her nose, cackling like a hen who had laid an egg, to prove to the crowd how vulgar she was, a bastard who had carried her in from the outside, and would do anything to destroy her coming-of-age ceremony.

Leng Ning acted as if she hadn't heard. She smiled at Qin Zheng. A week ago, she was still Qin Zheng's woman, but now, Qin Zheng and Ruan Lingyin were together.

And she, Qin Zheng had sold her to the most terrifying man in the world.

He said, "Leng Qing, marry Huo Quan in place of Ling Yin, she's not like you …"

The dumpling skin and meat stuffing in his hand became a lump of disgust. He smiled and said, "You should have told me earlier that I'm from the south and can't cook pasta. I rolled the dumpling skin for three hours."

The corner of Qin Zheng's mouth lifted slightly, and with a hint of chilling urgency, he said, "Huo Quan is also a southerner, so you shouldn't need to put so much effort into this."

"What if I promise you? So what if I don't agree with you? " Leng Qing's heart sank as he looked up at Qin Zheng. The current Qin Zheng was no different from the past. Even the way he looked at her was as gentle as the past.

But she knew that he was a terrifyingly calm man, and if he hadn't thought of a plan, he wouldn't have made such a request to her so easily.

After all, wasn't she different from Ruan Lingyin? She was worried, but people would die.

"You have always been so clever. "If you agree, I will rescue your foster father from prison. If you don't then the secret in your heart will be known by the whole world." Qin Zheng still had a warm smile on his face, as if he was talking to her about whether she should eat leek or a cabbage filling.

Leng Qing looked at him expressionlessly. She had told him that secret with what kind of love and trust, but now she could not remember it at all.

The Qin family and Ruan family were extremely powerful families. The Ruan family seemed to be even more powerful than the Qin family. The terrifying title of Ruan Lingyin's father was something that Leng Ning could never remember.

Therefore, she did not have the ability to refuse Qin Zheng's request.

"Let me help you." Ruan Lingyin took two steps forward and walked towards the black cat standing proudly on the windowsill. A gentle breeze blew the white curtains of the curtain into a ray of sunlight to cover her body. It was as if a holy goddess was cleansing this muddy world.

A mocking smile was drawn on the corner of her mouth as she said softly, "That cat has a wild personality. Be careful of hurting Miss Ruan."

"I won't …" Ruan Lingyin turned her head with a smile on her face, and the black cat shouted at her.

She hid into Qin Zheng's arms like a frightened rabbit. Qin Zheng's expression didn't change, and his gaze never shifted to Leng Ning. He ordered in a low voice, "Go help Miss Ruan catch that cat."

The subordinate immediately walked towards the black cat.

Leng Qing's pupils suddenly contracted as he held out his hand to stop him, "There's no need to trouble yourself."

"Leng Ning, what are you trying to do? The banquet venue has already been messed up by that damn wild cat. Leng Fei angrily walked over and gave him a push.

Leng Qing looked at him and grabbed at the person who was about to step forward, "I will catch it!"

It was the jade pendant that she had been wearing since she was young. She must have accidentally taken it away when she was trying to catch it.

This thing must not fall into the hands of others.

"Leng Qing, Mr. Huo is about to come. You must not get hurt by that cat." Ruan Lingyin held on tightly to Leng Qing's hand.

"Many thanks for Miss Ruan's kindness. However, I'm not as delicate and tender as Miss Ruan. It's fine if I'm injured." Leng Qing shook off her hand, but by the time she ran over, Leng Fei was fuming as she held a torch wrapped in gasoline and stuffed the cat into a corner to burn a large chunk of fur.

The black cat no longer had the grace to look down on the world, and it hissed at them in fear and anger.

Leng Qing's heart suddenly felt extremely sour. She pushed past Leng Fei and grabbed the cat by the neck to hold it in her embrace. However, as it struggled, it still managed to scratch several bloody lines on her arm.

"Hey, Leng Ning, you're about to lose it. What will you do if you scratch your face? Huo Quan is about to come over. He came specially to ask for your hand in marriage today. " Ruan Lingyin abandoned Qin Zheng and ran over. She was afraid that the cat would stop a few steps away from Leng Ning.

Leng Fei widened her mouth in shock as she pointed at Leng Qing in disbelief, "You, you, you want to marry Huo Quan? Was it that Huo Quan who killed people without batting an eye? "

Leng Qing hugged the cat, turning his head and glancing at her indifferently, "You've seen him kill people? How do you know he wouldn't even blink? "

"I heard that he cut open his mother's stomach at the age of five, scalded his brother to death in boiling water at the age of ten, and killed everyone in the Huo family to become the Huo family's head at the age of fifteen. Are you sure you want to marry that demon?" Just the mention of that person's name caused Leng Fei's teeth to chatter uncontrollably.

Many of his legends had even been turned into terrifying comics. She had watched a copy of his nightmares for days.

If Leng Qing were to marry him, what she would bring to the Leng Clan would be an endless catastrophe.

She laughed: "When we were five years old, you and I walked on the snowy mountain and lost ourselves. I killed the rabbit that was roasted to you with my bare hands, do you still remember? When you were ten years old and were bullied by the boys in your class, I almost beat him to death. "When I was fifteen …"

"Stop it!" Leng Fei interrupted her with a pale face, then ran into the bathroom with her hands covering her mouth.

Leng Qing still had a faint smile on her face. She caressed the fur on her cat lightly with her fingers. She turned to Qin Zheng and said, "Look, he and I are a match made in heaven."

Qin Zheng, on the other hand, lowered his head and did not even glance at Ruan Lingyin. She suddenly felt that this monologue was both sad and laughable.

Ruan Lingyin did not dare to look at Qin Zheng's expression as she knew without even looking that there was no flaw in his fake smile. Only by standing beside him could she clearly feel the anger radiating from his body.

He did not even glance at Leng Qing, but he was angry because of her.

"Leng Qing, you better think this through. If you don't want to, no one will force you." Ruan Lingyin looked at her pitifully. The sincerity in her eyes almost moved her.

"How could I not? Everything about him was snatched up with his own hands, and I adored and cherished such a man as that. Looking at the entire city, who would still have the courage to call out the wind and summon the rain like him? "

The black cat finally calmed down under the cold caress, purring in her embrace while making a pleasant sound.

At the very least, they found it even better than the grand bullshit of these wolves.

Just as Leng Fei finished speaking, she heard her impassioned speech, and immediately slapped her angrily: "I think you're really crazy! "Huo Quan looks like a ghost, and he's even a lame, ugly ghost. If you want to marry him, you …"

Leng Fei's words were interrupted by a few muffled sounds of impact.

The sound came from the collision between wood and wood. It was so far away that it sounded like the angry sound of a staff held by an ancient pharaoh on a sacrificial altar.
