He was going to die if he drank the wine.
What was Jiang Ning up to? Why had he called the guards to join him and Third Miss? He didn't have to feign friendship with his servants.
Luo Heng eyed his cup before speaking hesitantly. "Your humble servant doesn't wish to intrude upon Third Miss." "He told you to sit down, didn't he? Well, sit down!" Liu Qing slammed her fist on the table without any warning and yelled, "Quit yammering!" She was in a foul mood. That guard should have known better. Why was he giving her so much trouble? Luo Heng clenched his jaw. He had no choice but to take a seat.
"Summon all the guards." Jiang Ning turned towards the guard at the door and said, "Let's all have a drink together." Luo Heng's heart sank when he heard that. Was Jiang Ning mad? Why was he summoning all the guards? He could feel his heart hammering in his chest. What was he going to do? The wine was poisoned! He couldn't possibly drink it. What if all the guards drank but not Jiang Ning? What was he going to do then? Where could he escape to then? "Third Miss, I'm still on duty. I have to protect you. I can't get drunk..." Luo Heng said hastily.
"I'm giving you a holiday." Jiang Ning looked at him. "It starts now. I call the shots. Besides, this is Qingshan Sect. Who's going to cause trouble here? They'll be punished seriously." He picked up the bottle of wine and filled Luo Heng's cup.
"You've been guarding Third Miss diligently all this while. It must be hard work. I want to take this chance to thank all of you." Jiang Ning grinned. "We're counting on you to continue your hard work." His cup was filled to the brim. Luo Heng swallowed as he stared at the wine and the shimmering light passing through it.
He knew what kind of man Zhang Heng was. Zhang Heng was cold blooded and vicious, so Luo Heng was certain that the poison that Zhang Heng had given him would kill those that drank it. He was going to die if he drank the wine.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore Luo Heng could do or say anything, a dozen guards had arrived in the hall.
They looked excited.
Jiang Ning had treated them extremely well from the moment he had arrived at the courtyard. He never looked down on them because they were servants. In fact, he treated them with concern and the utmost respect.
No one had ever treated them in this manner.
And now, he was inviting them to drink with him.
This was unbelievable! Something like this had never happened in Qingshan Sect.
"Brother Jiang!" the guards greeted him in unison.
They had gotten used to addressing him this way. Jiang Ning was like their big brother. He took better care of them than Third Miss ever did. He always treated them with respect and dignity.
"We wanted to drink with all of you," said Jiang Ning. "That's what Third Miss wants too." Liu Qing nodded. Jiang Ning called the shots now. He enjoyed a higher standing than she did. Also...he was really good looking.
She stared stupidly as Jiang Ning got everyone cups. She could never tire of the look of nonchalance on his face. "Thank you, Brother Jiang! Thank you, Third Miss!" The guards raised their cups in excitement. Jiang Ning was going to personally fill their cups with wine.
Luo Heng was going to wet his pants any moment now.
They were all going to die. He was going to die if they died.
They would turn the entire sect upside down to find him. He would have nowhere to go.
"Let's make a toast," Jiang Ning laughed.
The cups were raised.
Luo Heng could hear a sudden loud crackle inside his head, as if he had been struck by lightning.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis blood turned cold in an instant.
"Don't drink it!" Luo Heng yelled suddenly and flung his arms wide open, sweeping the cups of two guards out of their hands.
