Chapter 188: A Step Late

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Both Shangguan Ning and Shangguan Zheng paled upon hearing Jing Yiran’s words.
Huang Liyu’s death was a thorn in their hearts, something that shouldn’t be touched by anyone, because one touch would rip off the old wound and the blood would gush out instantly.
It took Shangguan Ning a while before she said calmly, “Sorry, I am married and I will not remarry. I can look into my mother’s affairs myself and even if I can’t figure the matter out, I can simply send every suspect to prison so that they suffer and wish that they would rather die. That would be my revenge!”
Huang Liyu’s death was related to the people in her family. Had it not been for them, her mother would not have died. So it was necessary to punish those responsible.
Jing Yiran had not expected that Shangguan Ning could be so intimidating that she would want to kill everyone even mistakenly rather than drop the matter. This felt familiar to him as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Oh yes, this was what Jing Yichen was like!
Could Shangguan Ning have become bossy and intimidating because she had been with him for so long?
This was not a good sign. Jing Yichen was already very difficult to deal with, and he didn’t want to get one more rival like him.
But why did he find this intimidating Shangguan Ning even more attractive than her gentle version?
Jing Yiran didn’t want to wait for even one more second and wanted to make her belong to him.
Mu Qing had deprived him of using his manhood, but what he could do was to make sure that their relationship could be legal by getting Shangguan Ning to divorce Jing Yichen first!
The staff at the Civil Affair Office had been arranged by Shangguan Zheng, as the mayor. As long as he could bring Shangguan Ning there, he would make her go through the divorce procedures with Jing Yichen and then marry her immediately, afterwards.
Shangguan Ning was too naïve to think that he would exchange what she wanted with what he wanted?
“I have never thought about having a deal with you. I always rob rather than trade.”
Jing Yiran smiled sinisterly. He stretched out his hands to touch her smooth, oval face, but was slapped away by her.
Shangguan Ning swore, “You are shameless!
“I can be more shameless! You will know soon.”
He had just finished speaking when Shangguan Ning felt something weird about her body.
She suddenly felt that she had no energy. She collapsed to the ground.
Jing Yiran scooped her up in his arms and grinned. “See? Only bad methods work. Why would I have spent so much time talking with you if I had not been waiting for the drug to come into effect? You are so naïve that you get tricked so easily. My heart really aches for you.”
“But don’t worry. I got the drug from Shangguan Rouxue. Since I pity you, I only used a small dosage of drug to put into you. It won’t be a problem at all. According to her, there are no side effects apart from a strong desire to kiss me. We can do the divorce procedures first before getting registered as a couple. By that time, the drug inside you would work to the maximum extent and then we can go to the wedding bed. How does this sound?”
Shangguan Ning wanted to kill Jing Yiran right now.
She had been drugged three times by the same drug. She was familiar with the effect which the drug brought about.
But Jing Yiran might have told the truth about not injecting too much drug into her. That was why she had no other reaction than weakness, unlike the two previous times when she felt so hot that she had wanted to rip off her own clothes.
She threw a dubious look at Jing Yiran – how could he be so kind? Wasn’t he the one who should put more quantity of the drug into her so that she could suffer?
But she cared even more about what Jing Yiran said just now.
“What do you mean about getting divorced?”
She would never divorce Jing Yichen.
What was more, she would not marry Jing Yiran, the maniac!
Jing Yiran put Shangguan Ning in the passenger seat, fastened up the seatbelt for her carefully and patted her hair.
He said. “You are going to divorce the man I hate and marry me. Wow, what a lovely day!”
The Maserati started and carried them off to the Civil Affairs Office.
When they reached the gate, Jing Yiran carried Shangguan Ning off the car who had no strength, all the way to the Civil Affairs Office.
Due to the preparatory work Jing Yiran had done, there was no one at the Civil Affairs Office. The couples who had intended to get the certificate registration had been driven away.
There were only two employees in the empty lobby as well as a man dressed in black, with his back facing them.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the man turned around and said in a cold voice. “You are a step late. She married me first. You have been one step behind me in everything, even at birth. So I am destined to be faster than you and you are bound to have nothing in your life!”
Hearing the voice, Shangguan Ning turned her head and said joyfully, “Yichen!”
Jing Yichen strode forward and scooped Shangguan Ning into his arms, anxiously. He surveyed her up to down and let out a sigh of relief seeing that she was totally fine. Then he said to Jing Yiran who was dumbfounded at the moment. “Touch her one more time, and I will break your hands so they can never work again!”
After Jing Yichen carried Shangguan Ning away, Mu Qing popped up behind Jing Yiran. “Tut, tut, Second Master of Family Jing, how can you be so careless? I have been behind you since you got off the car and you have got six needles inside yet you haven’t noticed a thing? Are you a zombie? Haha, no, actually, now you have become a zombie!”
Furious, Jing Yiran was about to smash Mu Qing’s handsome face when he found that his limbs were out of his control.
He watched as Jing Yichen took Shangguan Ning out of his sight.
He had just one step left before he succeeded.
He had arranged everything. He had made many efforts upon finding Ji Bo so that he could arrange to have a meeting with Jing Yichen.
He had even made tremendous efforts to get Shangguan Zheng to become the Mayor!
Now all was gone! He suddenly faced immense loss.
Jing Yiran suddenly spat out a mouthful of water, furiously. Then he felt darkness taking over him before collapsing on the ground, smashing his face against the floor.
