After Accidentally Marrying My Sister-in-law, My 10,000x Cultivation Begins

99: I have always believed in my husbandLu An’an scratched her nose. ”He’s your brother-in-law. If I didn’t trust him, who else could I count on to take care of you?”

Lu Qianqian bit her lip and said.

”But, he’s a man after all, and he’s so strong. Aren’t you afraid I’ll fall for Brother-in-law?”

Hearing this, Lu An’an sighed, looking somewhat helpless: ”Well, will you?”

Lu Qianqian looked up at Lu An’an.

”I... of course not! He can only be my brother-in-law!”

Lu Qianqian seemed to be making a promise.

Lu An’an raised her hand to tidy Lu Qianqian’s clothes and said.

”You’ve always been like this since you were a child, so impulsive. I’m not trying to get a promise from you; I just want to tell you that even if you did, it wouldn’t matter.”

”After all, these are feelings, not objects. If someone falls in love, how can they easily take it back?”

”Sister!”

Lu Qianqian looked at Lu An’an in surprise.

Lu An’an took Lu Qianqian’s hand and said.

”Silly girl, I don’t care about those things. But feelings are between two people. I can only say I don’t mind; I can’t help you with anything else.”

Lu Qianqian fell silent. For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.

Even though her sister said she didn’t mind, she still felt a sense of guilt and wanted to flee.

Just then.

A guard hurried over and whispered, ”Eldest Miss, Second Miss, Lord Ye asked me to bring word. He requests your presence; something is not right.”

Hearing this, the sisters were startled.

They immediately called Feng Ming and the people of the Feng Family, rushing toward Ye Feng’s tent.

Outside the tent, Ye Feng was staring intently toward a forest.

It was late now, and the forest was so dark that one couldn’t even see their hand in front of their face.

As soon as they arrived, Ye Feng spoke.

”In that forest and the nearby meadow—there are people everywhere!”

”Jeff, I’m afraid you’re going to lose this bet!”

Feng Ming smiled upon hearing this and said, ”Huainian, don’t be in such a hurry to jump to conclusions. Haven’t they yet to make a move?”

”And I firmly believe they won’t dare to.”

After saying that, Feng Ming walked directly to the side.

Jiang Shuwan looked worried. ”Husband, where are you going?”

Feng Ming waved his hand. ”It’s fine, don’t worry. I’m just going to have a chat with Senior Brother Huangfu.”

Huangfu Jing was sitting by the fire eating meat. Seeing Feng Ming approach, his expression darkened. ”What are you doing here?”

Feng Ming smiled and sat down directly across from Huangfu Jing. Without ceremony, he picked up a piece of roasted meat and began to eat.

Huangfu Jing watched in bewilderment, just about to speak out in rebuke.

Feng Ming laughed loudly.

”Senior Brother Huangfu, all these people lying in ambush around us—they’re all from your Huangfu Family, right?”

Huangfu Jing was stunned and said angrily:

”Feng Ming, stop your baseless accusations. Where are there people around us?”

”Even if there were, what does that have to do with us? What right do you have to say the Huangfu Family arranged it?”

Neither of their voices was quiet, and they soon attracted everyone’s attention.

Feng Ming smiled and raised an eyebrow. ”Oh? So these people aren’t arranged by the Huangfu Family? But the friction between our Feng Family and your Huangfu Family is known to everyone in Qingyang City. Besides you, who else would target our Feng Family?”

”I thought that besides wanting to mess with our Feng Family, you were also planning to avenge Luo Meng?”

After speaking, Feng Ming slapped his forehead. ”Oh, look at my memory. Luo Meng was killed by your Huangfu Family, so how could you possibly avenge him? It seems you’re still coming for our Feng Family.”

”But then again, your Huangfu Family is truly impressive, even coming up with using a fourth-grade midnight soul returning pill to control retainers and thugs.”

”Poor Luo Meng. Despite my threats and bribes, he never betrayed your Huangfu Family, yet he ended up dying at your hands. How tragic and lamentable.”

”Feng Ming!”

Huangfu Jing’s face changed instantly, and he stood up to glare at Feng Ming.

”Do you know what you are saying?”

”In the Bright Moon Dynasty, assassinating others without cause is against the law.”

”You spout such nonsense to slander our Huangfu Family; do you have any evidence?”

Feng Ming smiled.

”Ah, did I get it wrong? Luo Meng wasn’t sent by your Huangfu Family? Then it’s a bit strange. Why didn’t you ever ask who Luo Meng was, but instead were so eager to distance yourself?”

”Clearly, you know Luo Meng.”

Huangfu Jing’s expression changed drastically as he realized he had let it slip.

”You... you were baiting me?”

Huangfu Jing’s expression was ugly to the extreme.

However, he wasn’t stupid enough to admit it in front of so many people.

”Junior Brother Feng, what are you talking about? I don’t quite understand what you mean.”

After speaking, he leaned in close to Feng Ming and whispered through gritted teeth.

”Feng Ming, do you really think I’m that stupid? So what if Luo Meng was sent by our Huangfu Family?”

”His body is probably rotting by now. Do you really think you can use a dead man to convict our Huangfu Family?”

”To tell you the truth, you’re right. The people around us were indeed arranged by our Huangfu Family. So, forget about reaching Qingyang City; even if you regret it and want to return to Liumian Prefecture, you won’t have the chance. It’s all too late.”

Huangfu Jing looked triumphant. In front of Feng Ming, he didn’t care if the other knew the truth.

In fact, he was looking forward to seeing the look of terror on Feng Ming’s face.

Seeing Huangfu Jing laugh, Feng Ming laughed as well.

”Senior Brother Huangfu, you seem very confident in the Huangfu Family’s arrangements. Aren’t you afraid they might betray you or change their minds at the last minute?”

Huangfu Jing was dismissive. ”Because of you?”

He clearly didn’t believe Feng Ming’s words.

Feng Ming didn’t explain further. He stood up, brushed the dust off his clothes, and turned to leave.

His goal had been achieved anyway; there was no need to keep wasting time.

With this time, he’d rather spend it building his relationship with Lu An’an.

As for the outcome, there would be an answer soon enough.

When Jiang Shuwan and the others saw Feng Ming return, they were all completely bewildered.

They were surrounded by enemies. Could Feng Ming really break this crisis just by chatting with Huangfu Jing for a bit?

Ye Feng couldn’t help but say.

”Jeff, you don’t actually think that chatting with Huangfu Jing will solve the current crisis, do you? If so, that’s far too naive.”

Ye Feng even felt a bit disappointed.

Feng Ming smiled.

”Huaian, you don’t believe me?”

Ye Feng was so angry he laughed. ”How can I believe you? Never mind me—ask the others. Do they believe you?”

The ”others” he referred to were Lu An’an, Jiang Shuwan, and the rest.

Although Jiang Shuwan couldn’t understand Feng Ming’s actions, she already trusted him. No matter what he did, she would believe in him.

She immediately said.

”I believe in my husband!”

Lu An’an, standing beside her, also said.

”I also believe in Young Master Feng!”
