I'm full of rebellion against fate

Chapter 325 Complex Relationship

When Wei Yan heard that the Ning family had been executed, he was on his way back to the capital. Although he hurried back to the capital, he came back too late and only had time to collect the bodies of the Ning family.

When counting the number of people, he found that Ning Chen's body was not among them. This was his only small blessing. The absence of his body meant that he was most likely still alive.

Wei Yan, who was originally trying to find out where Ning Chen was, learned about the assassination of His Majesty. However, it was later discovered that the matter was related to the Regent. The Regent and the Ning family were in opposition, so he did not take it to heart. But what he did not expect was that when he saw Ning Chen again, he had become the Regent's Consort!

At the banquet, Wei Yan's eyes were always on Ning Chen. The Ning family and the Wei family were very good friends back then. His mother even arranged a marriage for him with Ning Chen's mother. Unfortunately, Ning Chen was a boy, so the matter was canceled.

Ning Chen has been very handsome since he was a child, with a cheerful personality like a little sun. He couldn't imagine how desperate he would be on the day when the Ning family was beheaded.

This time, His Majesty held a banquet in the palace, saying it was to celebrate some unknown festival, but it was obvious that this banquet had a purpose.

Not long after Wei Yan took his seat, the Regent and the Princess also sat down. The Regent had been working hard for the court all these years and was suddenly granted a marriage by His Majesty. It was said that His Majesty believed that the Queen was still in love with the Regent, so he was angry and framed him and forced him to get married.

Moreover, the process of the princess fingering her finger in prison was very sloppy, and Wei Yan felt sorry for the loyal regent.

Just as he was shaking his head, the man suddenly realized that the Regent Princess looked very familiar! Isn't this Ning Chen?!

Wei Yan was so shocked that the glass cup in his hand almost burst! Could it be that Ning Chen had already been captured by His Majesty? And His Majesty just happened to be arranging a marriage for Ning Chen?!

Wei Yan immediately looked at the Regent with jealousy. Damn it! Why wasn't he the one imprisoned?! Why did Ning Chen have to marry the Regent?!

Chang Ningchen suddenly felt a strong gaze falling on him. He turned his head and saw a tall and handsome man staring at him.

Why is this man staring at me like that? Could it be that he was the one who ordered me to assassinate the emperor? Chang Ningchen frowned and approached Dongfang He and whispered, "Ah He, there's someone over there who's been looking at me."

Dongfang He followed Chang Ningchen's gaze and found Wei Yan. He then searched the original owner's memory and reassured Chang Ningchen, saying, "This man is a good friend of the Regent. They have fought together for many years. He is Wei Yan, General Wei."

Chang Ningchen asked in confusion: "If we are good friends, why is he looking at me like this?"

The man's eyes seemed to be about to burst into flames of jealousy!

Dongfang He said awkwardly, "He hasn't married yet. He must be unhappy to see his friend suddenly find a partner!"

Chang Ningchen nodded. This was indeed infuriating, so he smiled at Wei Yan.

But when the man saw Chang Ningchen's smile, his expression instantly became angry!

What the hell?! Could this man possibly like the Regent?! Chang Ningchen saw the man's angry expression, and his intuition told him that this man must like the Regent!

Dongfang Chen, who was sitting upstairs, was drinking when he saw the three people who had started exchanging glances. He looked at the reactions of the three people with great satisfaction.

Gu Qingyang followed Dongfang Rong's line of sight and noticed the situation of the three of them. He asked curiously, "What happened to them?"

Dongfang Chen smiled and said, "I heard that Wei Yan is close to the Ning family, so I wanted to see his reaction when he saw Ning Chen. Now it seems that Wei Yan does have different feelings for Ning Chen."

Gu Qingyang saw that Dongfang Chen was up to no good again. He asked anxiously, "Even if they have a conflict, Ning Chen is now the Regent Princess, and Wei Yan is a general. He can't just snatch the Princess away, right?"

Dongfang Rong looked at Gu Qingyang and said, "If we don't fight over it, we can let them make a fuss for a while."

Gu Qingyang said in a relaxed tone: "Being robbed is also good, so the position of Regent will be vacant again."

Dongfang Chen heard what Gu Qingyang said and then remembered that he paired Ning Chen with the Regent because he didn't want the Queen to have feelings for the Regent again. If Wei Yan snatched Ning Chen away, the Queen would have to think about the Regent again!

Thinking of this, Dongfang Chen immediately said to Gu Qingyang: "Given the Regent's love for Ning Chen, Wei Yan can't take Ning Chen away..."

Ning Chen left his seat, and Wei Yan followed shortly after. Dongfang He remained seated, drinking. This stunned Dongfang Chen and Gu Qingyang, who were sitting above him. What was Dongfang He doing sitting there without those two? Was he waiting for his head to turn green? And Chang Ning Chen looked much taller today than usual.

Dongfang He was also a little helpless at this moment, because Chang Ningchen just said that he wanted to go to the bathroom and didn't let him follow.

Wei Yan's departure made him feel a little uneasy, and after much hesitation he decided to leave.

Chang Ningchen deliberately gave Wei Yan a look and then left. As a love rival, he had to declare his ownership of Dongfang He! His man was already taken!

Unexpectedly, when Wei Yan saw Chang Ningchen, he hugged him and said, "I was very worried about you. I didn't have time to rush back when the Ning family was executed. I'm very sorry."

Chang Ningjia was stunned. He thought this man was his love rival, but he didn't expect him to be Dongfang He's love rival! If Dongfang He saw this, he wouldn't be able to get out of bed tomorrow!

"Let me go!"

Chang Ningjia struggled to break free from the man's shackles, but he held her tighter and tighter. He said affectionately, "Achen, are you still angry that I didn't save you? I know you were forced to marry the Regent. Now I will take you away! Let's elope!"

Damn it! Chang Ningjia quickly said, "I volunteered to follow the Regent!"

Wei Yan said guiltily, "I know that His Majesty casually assigned you to the Regent."

Uh...it seems that's not wrong, but he was willing to follow Dongfang He at that time. He quickly said: "My body and mind belong to His Royal Highness the Regent! I am his in life and his dead in death!"

Wei Yan carried the man and walked towards a less crowded path. He said, "We are all men. Chastity and other things are not important. Ah Chen, come with me and leave here. I will treat you well!"

Chang Ningchen roared angrily: "Put me down! You must be just attracted by my beauty!"

Wei Yan didn't comment on Chang Ning's family. He nodded and said, "Achen is indeed good-looking. I want to marry her when I see her!"

Are you military commanders supposed to be so blunt?! Chang Ningjia's hands were aching from beating the man's back, but he didn't feel a thing. Furious, Chang Ningjia pulled out the bricks he'd been using as shoe soles, then started beating him hard.

When Dongfang He arrived, he saw Wei Yan carrying Chang Ningchen with blood on his head. Even though his head was covered in blood, he still refused to let go.

Wei Yan, with blood all over his face, carried Chang Ningchen and ran in front, while Dongfang He chased after him.
