But how could he swallow his anger if he didn't kill this bandit king? And how could he rescue his second sister, Fu Hui?

Thinking of this, Kang Ning gritted his teeth, silently encouraged himself, and then carefully slipped into the room.

However, the door creaked open with a clear sound, which was unusually clear in the quiet room.

Even the snoring on the bed suddenly stopped!

This sudden turn of events startled Kang Ning so much that she jumped to her feet and crouched down, looking nervously toward the large bed.

Oh no! Could that damn mountain bandit king have woken up?

However, since she was in the dark and there was no mirror in front of her, Kang Ning would have been startled again by her own pale face due to nervousness!

At this moment, she had already prayed to all the gods and immortals in the sky, hoping that the mountain king would not get up, otherwise she would definitely be discovered while squatting on the ground!

Fortunately, the man on the bed had clearly just turned over, and then a soft snore could be heard again.

"Phew..." Kang Ning finally let out a heavy breath, secretly relieved.

At the same time, fearing that the man wasn't sleeping soundly enough, she rested there for another quarter of an hour before slightly straightening up and bending over to move closer to the bed.

As they got closer, Kang Ning could clearly hear his heartbeat getting faster and faster, thumping so loudly it felt like it was about to jump out of his throat!

It wasn't until she got close enough to the bed to see the current state of the bed that she gasped in shock.

It was obvious that a man and a woman were lying on the couch.

The woman inside was none other than the second sister, Fu Hui, while the man on the outside had his back to her, with his large hands resting on Fu Hui's waist.

This mountain bandit king even sleeps with his second sister in his arms, he must be afraid she'll escape! Under these circumstances, it's impossible to rescue my second sister without killing him!

"You wicked villain!" Kang Ning steadied herself, ignoring the sweat on her palms, and slowly raised the silver hairpin in her hand, aiming it at the back of the man's neck. At the same time, she muttered to herself, "Today I will rid the people of this scourge!"

After saying this, Kang Ning seemed to have gained courage. She gritted her teeth and stabbed the mountain king in the back of the neck with the silver hairpin!

However, the next second the man suddenly flipped over like a ghost and grabbed her wrist as she thrust it.

The force was so great that the silver hairpin in Kang Ning's hand could not move forward even an inch, and stopped abruptly less than an inch in front of the other party's face!

Just a little short! Kang Ning sighed inwardly!

Although the room was still dimly lit, she could barely make out that the man's appearance was quite handsome, and his figure and outline seemed somewhat familiar.

Kang Ning instinctively felt that she had seen this man somewhere before, and more than once!

Before she could think it through, the other person's large hand exerted a little force, and her right hand, which was holding the silver hairpin, opened in pain, and the silver hairpin fell to the ground with a clatter.

It's over! It's all over now!

Upon hearing this, Kang Ning felt a surge of panic. However, she couldn't run away, nor could she kill the thief! She was in a predicament where she was caught between a rock and a hard place!

Then she felt the mountain bandit's other hand grab her slender waist, and with a little force, her entire body uncontrollably slumped onto the bed.

The mountain bandit had already sat up, and Kang Ning sat directly in his arms, his hands pinned down from behind as he was held tightly in his embrace!

……

"Let go of me!" Kang Ning was startled, especially since her body was being completely hugged by the other person!

You should know that she was sitting in someone's lap and had no ability to resist at all. Although she tried desperately to get up and escape, those strong arms were like iron clamps and did not loosen their grip in the slightest.

Moreover, the reason for the fear was that this guy had just bullied my second sister, and judging from his current posture, he didn't seem to want to kill me... It was very likely that he wanted to bully me as well!

The thought of this possibility made Kang Ning struggle even more fiercely! But to Wei Tingyu, who was holding her, it was all in vain.

But you know what, this girl is quite strong! An ordinary man probably wouldn't be able to control her so easily!

"Little lady! Don't struggle!" Thinking of this, Wei Tingyu lowered his voice and carefully brought his face close to Kang Ning's ear from behind, whispering, "You came into my room in the middle of the night just to play with this king, didn't you?"

“You…” Kang Ning naturally felt the other person’s face very close to the back of his ear, and even the hot breath he was breathing on his neck.

However, at this moment, Kang Ning felt both fear and dread regarding this sensitive contact!

"It smells so good!" Wei Tingyu could clearly smell the faint fragrance emanating from Kang Ning's soft neck, and he immediately felt refreshed.

You know what, this smell does resemble her two older sisters, Shouhua and Fuhui, but it's not exactly the same.

It just has a different flavor!

Upon hearing Wei Tingyu's words, Kang Ning trembled and stopped struggling.

It's obvious that the other person has developed lust for me. If I continue to struggle like this, won't it only intensify his lust?

Most importantly, Kang Ning now understands that he cannot escape from the mountain king's control.

Putting everything else aside, he used the same trick that had just immobilized me by gently tapping my acupoints. What other way could I possibly counter that?

At that point, wouldn't we just have no choice but to surrender and let the other side do whatever they want to us?

Yes! I need to think of a safe way! I must be able to get myself and my second sister out of here, or at the very least, save my own life!

Thinking this through, Kang Ning quickly calmed down, but this actually allowed her rationality to regain the upper hand in her thinking.

She even caught a familiar scent from the mountain bandit holding her... as if she had indeed smelled it somewhere before.

Where is it? Kang Ning's mind immediately started racing, her brain working at lightning speed, because she felt that she really knew this mountain bandit behind her!

"Stop struggling!" Wei Tingyu, however, hadn't expected Kang Ning to be so quick-witted. He lowered his voice and whispered to scare her, "If you don't behave, I'll throw you off the cliff and kill you!"

"What are you saying, Your Majesty?" Kang Ning seemed genuinely frightened by these words. After a two-second silence, he spoke in a submissive tone, "The person didn't run away! They complied with everything! Why are you still making things difficult for them?"

"I have been frail since childhood. If I were to die halfway through, wouldn't Your Majesty have wasted your time?!"

This girl is quite eloquent, but her claim of being completely obedient is a completely different story.

He didn't run away, he just sneaked into this inner room! He's clutching a silver coin in his hand—what's he up to? Does he think this "mountain king" is a fool?

Wei Tingyu smiled inwardly, but still pretended to be fierce and said in a low voice, "Be obedient and listen to me. Once the goods are delivered, it will be a win-win situation for both of us!"

Seeing that Kang Ning lowered her head and stopped speaking, Wei Tingyu pretended to be fierce and said, "Good that you're obedient! But what are you doing sneaking into the room, little lady?"

“I…” Kang Ning originally thought that he had gotten away with the matter by being humble and submissive, so he did not expect that the mountain king had a good memory and actually remembered it again.

There was really no good excuse for this, so I could only stop talking and let you think whatever you want.

Of course, she also believed that since she had a marketable value, the other party would not harm her life for it.

"Could it be that you were captivated by my heroic spirit and came all this way to serve me?" Of course, Wei Tingyu was not about to let the atmosphere become awkward, so he asked again in a somewhat narcissistic tone.

"..." Kang Ning was speechless. Where did you get any heroic spirit from a bandit king who robbed and plundered?

"Hahaha! Very well!" Seeing that the little girl in his arms remained silent, Wei Tingyu laughed again and said, "Before selling her to Jiangnan... this king will inspect the goods first!"

After saying that, he turned his head and gave Kang Ning a big kiss on the cheek!

That was quite a loud noise, which startled even Kang Ning!

This mountain bandit king is actually getting carried away with lust! If we don't stop him, he might really lose his virginity here!

Thinking of this, Kang Ning naturally stopped struggling and instead cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, please wait!"

"How much does Your Majesty wish to sell me for?"

"Two hundred strings of cash!" Wei Tingyu was taken aback, thinking to himself that this girl was quite clever, knowing that these bandits were all greedy.

The only thing that could distract them from their lust is probably money.

"Two hundred strings of cash?" Kang Ning was immediately dissatisfied with Wei Tingyu's answer and said, "This servant knows how to burn incense and make tea! How come it's only two hundred strings of cash?"

"Even if I were sold for ten thousand gold pieces, it would be commonplace! But Your Majesty sold me for a few strings of cash? Isn't this a blatant devaluation of me?!"

Upon hearing Kang Ning's words, Wei Tingyu immediately understood what the girl was thinking.

A courtesan who knows how to burn incense and brew tea is not in the same league as a prostitute who can only sell her body!

Especially those courtesans who are still virgins are even more valuable! Just the price of their first night together might be enough for wealthy men in Jiangnan to pay thousands of taels of silver to acquire them!

If such a woman were sold to a brothel or a pleasure boat, her price would certainly be more than just two hundred strings of cash!

Although the girl didn't say it outright, she was clearly sending a message: if she could keep her virginity and sell herself to a brothel or pleasure boat, the price would definitely go up!

Believe it or not, if I were really a mountain bandit who was used to accumulating wealth, I might actually give up my lustful desires!

"Besides, selling a woman to Jiangnan..."

"Not to mention the risks along the way... we might also attract the attention of the officers and soldiers!"

“Why not find a good business opportunity locally? Wouldn’t that be more secure?” Kang Ning then added.

Although she couldn't turn around to see the expression on the man's face behind her, Kang Ning guessed from his silence that he must have been persuaded by her.

"A good business in the local area?" Wei Tingyu was taken aback, then laughed and asked, "Are you going to suggest that I send you to the Marquis's mansion for some small reward money again?"

Kang Ning was speechless upon hearing this. If you hadn't touched my second sister Fu Hui, you would definitely have said the same thing.

But even if this mountain bandit is stupid, he certainly wouldn't dare to send me and my second sister back to the Marquis's mansion now! After all, he slept with the Marquis's woman, and he definitely can't bear such wrath!

Thinking of this, Kang Ning's eyes darted around, and she immediately changed her tune, saying, "I am the daughter of the Li family from the Sifuzhai household on East Market Street in the capital! I am the third child!"

"Go and inquire in the East Market. All five of our Li family's daughters have been taken by that Marquis of Jining, Wei Tingyu!"

"My eldest and second eldest sisters have already been forcibly taken into his household. Although the three of us younger ones haven't entered yet, we have no other choice!"

Wei Tingyu was stunned. He never expected that in Kang Ning's mouth, he would become a villainous marquis who had taken over their five daughters.

But thinking about it carefully, what she said seems to make sense, since her domineering nature didn't give Li Jia and her daughter a choice.

Of course, judging from the behavior and actions of Li Niangzi, the head of the Li family, she really had no other choice.
