Feng Jue didn’t like to read fairy tales, not because he had early wisdom, but because he was simply bored that day. However, as he flipped through the book, he began to feel that something was off, especially when he came across the illustrations.

The book was filled with tragedies and grim images. It was like ten crimes disguised as a fairy tale. Gu Yang was taken aback when she saw it. “Others look at Andersen, but he looks at Slaughter.”

Such a book was unsuitable for children, and it was easy to imagine the impact it had on her Little Blood Bank’s young and innocent heart. The book’s gruesome and terrifying content made young Feng Jue disgusted, and he chose not to continue reading.

As he put the book down, a Night Pearl fell from the table and rolled to the bottom of the bed. Feng Jue bent down to retrieve it just as the door opened. It was Ning Shen and his mother.

Mother Ning pulled Ning Shen back to his room and closed the door before scolding him sternly. “Shen, how could you splash hot water on Miss Xiaoxiao’s face? You’ve scalded her, and now I have to answer to the Feng family and your father.”

Feng Jue had just found the Night-Luminescent Pearl and wanted to leave, but when he heard Mother Ning’s stern reprimand, he decided to hide under the bed, thinking it would be less awkward to wait until they had gone before he made his exit.

What he didn’t anticipate was witnessing a scene even more intense than the grim illustrations of the fairy tale book.

At that moment, Ning Shen, who was only ten years old, displayed a remarkable stubbornness. Faced with his mother’s severe reprimand, he showed no guilt and innocently asked, “Mom, does this mean I won’t have to be engaged to her?”

Mother Ning slapped Ning Shen with a loud crack, her voice trembling with anger. “Just because you don’t want to get engaged to Xiaoxiao, you splash boiling water on her? What is wrong with you?”

“Xiaoxiao is the only girl in the Feng family. An engagement with her means securing the support of the Feng family. You have so many brothers and cousins. If you squander this opportunity, you’ll only end up benefiting others!”

The Ning family was prosperous and influential, with Family Head Ning having many brothers, each with numerous children, as well as several illegitimate offspring.

In the Ning family, the heir was traditionally chosen based on capability. Even an illegitimate child had the opportunity to be selected if he was outstanding enough, which is why Mother Ning was so anxious.

Despite the gravity of the situation, ten-year-old Ning Shen remained unnervingly calm. Even after being slapped, he didn’t cry or make a fuss. He simply said in a low voice, “But I don’t like her.”

Mother Ning, still fuming, responded sharply, “Xiaoxiao is kind and cute. Why don’t you like her? She doesn’t mind your strange temper. It’s already impressive that she’s willing to shake your hand and befriend you!”

Ning Shen’s voice was very low and tinged with a hint of grievance. “She stepped on the roses in my garden.”

“Isn’t it just a few flowers? Listen to me and apologize to Feng Xiaoxiao immediately. Don’t worry about the marriage; I’ll handle everything for you,” Mother Ning insisted, her voice rising in urgency.

“Shen, I’m doing this for your own good. When you grow up, you’ll understand that I have your best interests at heart.”

“In the Ning family, the person who loves you the most is me. I’m willing to do anything for you, so you must listen to me!” Her agitation grew with each word, her frustration clearly evident.

Meanwhile, Feng Jue, hidden under the bed with the Night-Luminescent Pearl in hand, was increasingly glad he had chosen to stay out of sight. He had expected Ning Shen to cry after being scolded, but then he heard something surprising.

“Then will you die for me?”
