One person: I wanted to give up, but my abilities wouldn't allow it.

one day,

Lü Ci arrived alone before the blank stele.

He held a bunch of white flowers in his hand.

He stood there quietly.

He let the breeze flutter his robes.

“｀ˇDuanmu Ying,

I know you've left.

But I will always remember you.

He whispered,

Tears welled up in his eyes.

Your daughter,

I will take care of her as if she were my own child.

We will never let her get hurt in any way.

He placed the flowers in front of the monument.

I stood there silently for a long time.

It was as if they were saying their final goodbye to Duanmu Ying.

Subsequently,

He turned and left.

My heart is full of determination and strength.

he knows,

The road ahead is still long.

But he would do it for Lü's (Qian Nuo's) family.

To fulfill Duanmu Ying's expectations,

move on.

In the following days,

As the head of the family, Lü Ci

He demonstrated exceptional leadership skills and decisiveness.

He internally purged his family.

Expanding influence abroad

This led to the continuous rise in the status of the Lü family.

Although his methods sometimes seemed too harsh.

But he understood,

This is for the sake of the future of the Lü family.

This was also to fulfill a promise made to Duanmu Ying.

..........................................................

Chapter 270 Treat her well

Duanmu Ying's daughter grew up peacefully in her new home.

She no longer remembers the pain of the past.

All I know is that I have a new family.

She has loving parents and siblings.

She is living happily in her new environment.

She gradually grows into a kind and intelligent young woman.

Lü Ci was brought out of the darkness.

Describing someone as withered and emaciated.

It resembles a ghost.

Duanmu Ying tapped her index finger lightly.

A pale blue light entered Lü Ci's brow.

He coughed violently a few times.

A glimmer of light finally appeared in his murky eyes.

What conditions are you willing to offer in exchange for my treatment?

Lü Ci's voice was hoarse.

Bearing the sense of powerlessness of long-term imprisonment.

Duanmu Ying smiled slightly (890 words)

But it makes people feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze.

I don't want your life.

Lü Ci,

I want you to marry me.

This condition is utterly absurd.

Lu Ci even doubted whether he had misheard.

He sneered,

Are you giving me charity?

Duanmu Ying,

I, Lü Ci, need no pity from you!

"Do not,

This is not charity,”

Duanmu Ying looked serious.

"This is a deal,"

A deal from which both of us can benefit.

Marry me,

I will heal you.

And I'll help you become the head of the Lü family.

A flicker of hesitation crossed Lü Ci's eyes.

Become the head of the family,

This was something he had never imagined.

He had always just been his older brother's shadow.

A sharp blade.

But now that my elder brother has passed away...

Family strife,

Does he have any other options?

Under Duanmu Ying's meticulous care,

Lü Ci's health gradually recovered.

One month later,

He regained his former uprightness and sharpness.

However, there was a hint of gloom in his eyes.

The wedding preparations are also in full swing.

For the aristocratic families of that time

Polygamy is the norm.

The marriage did not cause much of a stir.

however,

When Lü Ci learned that the person he was about to marry was Duanmu Ying...

He completely exploded.

"impossible!

I would rather die than marry you!

He roared,

Trying to break free of restraints

However, Duanmu Ying easily subdued him.

"why?"

Duanmu Ying asked calmly,

(agcd) It's as if they're asking a trivial question.

"You killed my older brother."

The Lü family was destroyed!

I will never forgive you!

Lü Ci gritted his teeth.

His eyes were filled with the flames of hatred.

Duanmu Ying sighed.

She walked up to Lü Ci.

His tone carried a hint of helplessness.

“Lu Ci,

You're wrong, you're a herd.

I didn't kill your older brother.

I simply gave him a way out.

Look at the Lü family now.

Intrigue and backstabbing

Kill each other

Is this what you want to protect?

Lü Ci fell silent.

He knew that what Duanmu Ying said was true.

After the eldest brother died,

The internal family struggle intensified.

The entire Lü family was like a giant ship about to capsize.
