Chapter 189 Don't You Know What It Means?
A room full of people looked at Ye Ling with different expressions.
Ye Ling gave an awkward smile and pointed at Ning Guoqiang, "Don't you already have an idea in your mind?"
Ning Guoqiang stopped dead in his tracks, opened his mouth wide, and his eyes filled with disbelief, "I'm asking you whether you've been with her or not, what do you mean by whether I have an idea or not."
Li Chunyu also nodded repeatedly. However, in her opinion, her daughter must have done that with Ye Ling; otherwise, what was that scene she and Ning Guoqiang had walked in on the other day?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
It was so crazy, so proactive, so impulsive; she hadn't ever been that wild in her entire life.
Thinking of this, Li Chunyu even glared at Ning Guoqiang and deeply sighed, thinking how great it is to be young.
Ning Guoqiang gritted his teeth, clenching the pistol at his side, his eyes turning green with anger.
Seeing the dark pistol, Ye Ling felt a dampness in his crotch and could only let out a chuckle, "Yu Shan, in the end, did we or didn't we?"
"Don't you have a clue?" Ning Yushan slapped her palm and suddenly roared, what were these people, still fixating on this issue, didn't they understand she was still a maiden?
Ye Ling felt reassured; it seemed that they hadn't. Ning Guoqiang also felt like he had an answer; it seemed that they had. Otherwise, how could he explain what he had witnessed that day?
The two men locked eyes, nodded simultaneously, as if they understood each other, but were, in reality, clueless and completely at odds.
"Alright, since that's settled, I want to know how you plan to compensate my daughter?" Ning Guoqiang asked, moving his hand away from the pistol and smiling slightly.
Ye Ling was suddenly stunned. What did he mean? Did he have to compensate even though nothing happened?
"Uncle, do we still need compensation given the result?" Ye Ling swallowed hard. Could this possibly be an abuse of power?
Ning Guoqiang suddenly glared, "What? You don't want to compensate, is that it?"
Ye Ling quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, tell me, Uncle, how much money do you want?"
Ye Ling felt like his heart was bleeding. If Ning Guoqiang weren't in such a powerful position, he might even suspect the old man was trying to swindle him using a bait-and-switch tactic. Charging for a simple meal?
"Money? I don't want money; I want to know how you plan to compensate my girl!" Ning Guoqiang said through gritted teeth. How could this guy be so clueless about the situation?
Li Chunyu quickly patted Ning Guoqiang to calm him down, then earnestly said, "Ye Ling, my daughter is still a virgin. You at least should take responsibility, right?"
The Ning Family only had this one daughter. Although they might not pamper her to the point of fearing she would break in their hands or melt in their mouth, she was indeed the apple of their eye. Li Chunyu suddenly remembered that famous song lyric.
I planted a seed, and it finally bore fruit, but you took it away with one cut of your knife, without giving us even a hundred yuan.
"Aunt, I swear, that time it was Yu Shan who forced herself on me. I'm a victim too, and moreover, we didn't even..." Ye Ling, sensing the misunderstanding, quickly tried to clarify.
Ning Guoqiang waved his hand dismissively, "No need to explain. Either way, you have tainted my daughter's purity. Of course, if Yu Shan forced herself on you, that's right, as a daughter of a military family, she should take the initiative."
Ning Yushan's head was buried in her chest, too embarrassed to raise her head, thinking her father was just too open-minded.
"Uncle, how about a hundred thousand yuan?" Ye Ling bit his lip. He had been taken advantage of and now was being asked to pay up; wasn't this a shakedown?
Ning Guoqiang's face turned steel blue, "One hundred thousand yuan? Are you trying to fob off a beggar? My daughter, Ning Guoqiang's, isn't for sale, not for ten million, not for a hundred million!"
Ye Ling breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great to hear. I don't have ten million, I don't have a hundred million. Uncle, so you decide what to do."
"Didn't you say you have assets of several billion?" Ning Yushan suddenly interjected.
Ye Ling's eyes widened in shock, "Ning Yushan, did you really just invite me over for a meal? Are you sure this isn't a kidnapping?"
"Speak out of line again and I'll shoot you!" Ning Guoqiang roared, then patted the handgun resting on the table.
Ye Ling's face also drooped, "Uncle, are you only alive because of that gun?"
"You have two options," Ning Guoqiang continued, "First is to marry my daughter, and I, Ning Guoqiang, must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck to get a son-in-law like you!"
"Second is to become sworn brothers with me, and then you'll be Yu Shan's Second Uncle. If you dare have any untoward thoughts about my daughter after that, don't blame your elder brother for being ruthless!"
Ning Guoqiang gave a chilling smile, then pointed at Ye Ling, "Let me tell you, I really don't think much of you, just look at that lazy air about you, sit up straight, you're a man!"
"Yes! I am a man!" Ye Ling quickly straightened up, as if psyching himself up.
Li Chunyu and Ning Yushan both widened their eyes, wondering what on earth the old man of their household was thinking, wanting Ye Ling to become sworn brothers with him?
"That... Uncle, can I choose neither?" Ye Ling was dumbfounded. What was this, forced marriage?
Before Ning Guoqiang could respond, Ning Yushan was already anxious, "Ye Ling, what do you mean by that! Am I not good enough for you?"
Ye Ling was taken aback, what was up with Ning Yushan now?
Ye Ling felt his head swirling with confusion, he began to suspect that Ning Yushan had set a trap for him.
"Exactly! Is my daughter of the Ning family not good enough for you?" Ning Guoqiang bellowed.
Ning Yushan stood up abruptly and slammed the table, "Shut up! Ye Ling, I'm asking you, am I not good enough for you?"
Ning Guoqiang was taken aback, but obediently closed his mouth.
Before Ye Ling could think of a response, Ning Yushan was already dragging him by the collar towards the second-floor room. Puzzled, he was forcefully pulled into the room.
With a bang, the door shut tightly behind them. Ning Guoqiang and Li Chunyu were stunned. What on earth was their daughter trying to do?
"That old woman, Yu Shan wouldn't do something irrational, would she?" Ning Guoqiang said with an awkward smile.
Li Chunyu, however, nodded, "I'm afraid she just might. Poor child Ye Ling, he's probably in for it now."
Ning Guoqiang slapped his forehead, "So what does this make us, abducting a man against his will?"
Ning Guoqiang would never have believed that one day he would become an accomplice in such an act.
Inside the room, Ning Yushan's eyes brimmed with tears, "Why are you treating me this way? In what way do I fall short of them, do you dislike me that much?"
"Yu Shan, you're mistaken, I really didn't mean it that way!" Ye Ling said to the tearful Ning Yushan with empathy.
Ning Yushan gritted her teeth, "What do you mean 'didn't mean it'?"
"Don't you yourself know what I mean?" Ye Ling gave a flirtatious smile.
Suddenly, Ye Ling shivered as Ning Yushan's eyeballs turned bloodshot, gnashing her teeth with rage.
Damn, this woman isn't about to kill me, is she?
"Take off your clothes for me!" Ning Yushan gave a sinister smile.
Ye Ling stepped back a few paces, smiling awkwardly, "What do you mean?"
"Don't you yourself know what I mean?" Ning Yushan said, advancing towards Ye Ling.
