Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1723: Chapter 1723: Are You Looking for Me?

”Ambition?” Nangong Xu sneered, ”We’re both descendants of the Nangong Family, so why can you inherit the family while we remain servants for a lifetime? Over the past hundred years, we’ve sacrificed too much to maintain this family. We all share the same blood; everyone is qualified to inherit the family. If it were based on merit, I’d have nothing to say. But each generation is worse than the last. Nangong Shengjie is obsessed with music and can’t do anything. The family will be destroyed in his hands sooner or later. So many people have sacrificed for this empire, so no one can ruin it!”

”Is that why you killed Shengjie?” Nangong Ruyue asked angrily.

Nangong Xu stopped pretending and said calmly, ”I didn’t kill him, just tested him. He can only blame himself for being too incompetent, unable to handle even a few third-rate assassins. How can he manage this family without strength? Ruyue, everything I do is for the good of the entire family.”

”Stop being disgustingly hypocritical! You’re doing it for yourself, it’s you who has ambition!”

Nangong Xu remained unmoved; indeed, he was very ambitious.

Since he was young, his father had told him he was the most capable person in the world and that only he should hold the position of Family Head.

As he grew older, his skills increased, and he was outstanding among people, refusing to accept being subordinated all his life.

His place could only be at the highest position.

Anyone who stands in his way must die!

Only Nangong Ruyue was an exception; he shouldn’t have fallen in love with her; otherwise, he wouldn’t have wasted decades.

But now, he was aging and couldn’t afford to wait.

Nangong Ruyue would never fall in love with him; he could only rely on himself to fight for it.

Even without her, he must have that position; otherwise, he would end up with nothing, dying without peace.

Thinking of this, Nangong Xu’s gaze deepened.

”Ruyue, you’re right, I am ambitious. And I will definitely get what I want!”

Nangong Ruyue angrily said, ”Take it! We’re not fighting with you, don’t you understand?!”

Suddenly, Nangong Xu grabbed her chin and lifted her head.

He stared at her intently, saying softly, ”I’ve never worried about being unable to sit in that position; whether I do, and when, all depends on my will. You don’t understand!”

”I’ve endured for so many years, for what?! You still don’t understand what I need more?”

Nangong Ruyue’s eyelashes trembled slightly.

”What you want is me?”

Nangong Xu suddenly softened his expression, ”That’s right, I want you. I’ve endured until now, all for you. Ruyue, as long as you accept me, I can promise you anything I can do.”

So for Jian Yufei and Ansel to be safe.

She must accept him?

”Nangong Xu, you get me but make me hate you, does it make sense?”

Nangong Xu said softly, ”Even if I don’t get you, you still hate me. I may never have your heart, but I must have you physically, right?”

”...”

”Ruyue, whether to agree is up to you, I won’t force you. I can give you a day or two to think it over slowly.”

After saying that, he lowered his head wanting to kiss her lips. Nangong Ruyue suddenly dodged, and his kiss fell on her hair.
