C15 Triad

When the two of them got closer, they saw that it wasn't Second Uncle, but an unfamiliar man.

"Who are you? How can you wear my second uncle's clothes? " Ning Yuan stood in front of Ji Ruchang and asked.

"Um, Ning Yuan, he is, he is..." The words circled her mouth, but Ning Silian could not speak.

"He's my brother-in-law!" Ning Huai stood in the crowd and said.

The moment she said that, the two of them looked at Ning Silian in shock.

Ning Xiaohua had never seen such a handsome man before. She blushed as she pulled Ning Silian to the side and whispered, "Sister Silian, when did you say 'kiss'? How come I've never heard my mother mention it before?"

"That …"

"I think it's the wild man she hid!" Ning Yuan stared at Ji Ruchang and said coldly. This woman was really restless. She had just escaped from death, and now she was doing such a thing again.

"You, don't spout nonsense!" Ning Silian explained.

Ning Yuan glared at her. He held the meat in one hand and pulled Ning Xiaohua with the other, leaving the place in a hurry.

"Sigh, Sigh …" Ning Silian looked at their backs. At least they left some meat behind.

"I'm sorry for causing you to be misunderstood!" Ning Silian walked up to Ji Ruchang and supported him toward the main house.

"No worries!" Ji Ruchang followed her arm and sat on the stool.

Not long after, Ning Gaolang rushed over to Ning Family's second room with a large family of people.

"Ning Yuan, guard the door!" Ning Gaolang instructed.

When he heard what Ning Yuan had said, his first reaction was that Ning Silian had lied and gathered with her family to interrogate them face to face.

"Eldest Uncle, Third Uncle, you, why are you two here?" Ning Silian looked at the family's size in surprise.

Ji Ruchang had expected all of this, but he hadn't thought that Ning Family's people would be so weak.

"All of you, get out!" Ning Gaolang said to the children behind him.

Madam Qi quickly pulled her daughter, Ning Huai and Ning Xiaoye out of the room.

"Eldest Uncle, Third Uncle, Third Aunt, please have a drink!" Ning Silian filled each of them with water.

Ning Gaolang had noticed the man the moment he entered the door. Right now, he was filled with rage.

"Who are you?" Ning Gaolang went straight to the point.

Ji Ruchang cupped his hands and said, "Uncle can just call me Ruchang!"

"I heard from Ning Yuan that you and Silian were engaged?" Ning Gaolang continued to ask.

"Yes."

"Is there any evidence?"

Ji Ruchang looked at Ning Silian, who was puzzled.

"Silian, take out our betrothal gift!" Seeing that she didn't understand, Ji Ruchang mouthed at the crowd, "Jade Pendant!"

"Oh!" Only then did Ning Silian react, showing her jade pendant to the crowd.

Mrs Zhao initially didn't want to interfere in the Second Branch's matters, but now that she saw this first-class jade pendant, her eyes sparkled as she smiled and said: "Silian, you're right about your father. I've already arranged a marriage for you, why didn't you tell us about it?"

How could Ning Silian not see what Mrs Zhao was thinking? She replied in a low voice, "Third Aunt was right. It was just that my father was hurt by her feelings and forgot to tell you about it."

"Aiyo, your father, ah, he is infatuated with you, but he wasted so many years of his life and blood in Ning Family and finally managed to cultivate an Elementary Scholar, so he left just like that …" Mrs Zhao said as she reached for the jade pendant.

Ning Silian was the first to hear that her father was an Elementary Scholar, "What Third Aunt said is right, my father left in a hurry!"

Mrs Zhao was slightly angry at herself for not getting the jade pendant.

"Uncle, please look!" Ning Silian handed the jade pendant over.

Ning Gaolang held the jade pendant and carefully looked at it for a long time. He then looked at the two of them and said doubtfully, "You can't be intentionally using this person to lie to me because you don't want to marry Third Old Master Lee, right?"

"Silian wouldn't dare to do something that would ruin her reputation!" Ning Silian lowered her head.

"Oh my, it's not like I've never done it before!" Mrs Zhao coldly said from the side.
