Forced to marry, I picked up a young powerful official

Chapter 41: Die under peonies, and be a ghost even if you are romantic

The man bowed vaguely.

"I invited you here because I have heard of your talent. I also have some questions I want to ask you, so I invited you to come and discuss with me."

He spoke in a hypocritical manner, but his eyes were always glued to Shen Nankui's face.

That lewd smile is simply disgusting.

Shen Nankui sneered and glanced at the ropes on his body.

"If you want to ask me a question, why do you have to tie me up like this? I thought you were a bandit."

"Master, you really misunderstood."

The man smiled and said, "I was just afraid that the teacher would not show favor to me, so I resorted to this desperate measure."

"I'm already here, why don't you untie me?"

The man shrugged. "Why are you in such a hurry, beauty? Once we get to know each other better, I will let you go."

His words seemed to be full of profound meaning.

Shen Nankui stared at him coldly, "I have never met you before, and we have no grudges against each other. Why do you treat me like this?"

The man turned around and sat in a chair opposite her, crossing his legs.

"You don't know me, but I have heard of you. Everyone says that a female teacher has come to the private school in Lai'an Town. Not only is she very talented, but she is also very beautiful."

He suddenly became excited, "Listen, it's rare for a woman to be a teacher, and she's a beauty. There's such a person in Lai'an Town, how can I not come and see her in person?"

"Before, I thought others were just bragging and didn't believe it in my heart, but only when I saw you did I know that what they said was true. Master, beautiful lady, why are you so charming?"

The man narrowed his eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking about, with an intoxicated expression on his face.

Shen Nankui gritted his teeth and said, "So, you kidnapped me here to rape me?"

"The beauty is really smart!" The man clapped his hands excitedly.

Shen Nankui didn't know when she was targeted by this scoundrel. This was the first time she had encountered such a thing in her two lifetimes. It would be a lie to say she wasn't panicked.

But at this moment, she was in danger.

It is very likely that you will lose your innocence or even your life if you are not careful.

And she was alone.

She could only think of ways to save herself, or delay time and wait for A Yuan to find Gu Yichuan to save her.

The man in front of him looked wealthy and didn't look like one of those desperate criminals who risked his life on the edge of a knife. Perhaps he could try to reason with him.

Shen Nankui spoke as calmly as possible.

"Then you know that I am a married woman. The laws of this dynasty stipulate that anyone who robs a woman shall be sentenced to exile. Can you afford such consequences?"

The man did not respond, but said, "I thought you should be afraid of me at this time."

Such a delicate beauty, he really wanted to see her begging for mercy, which would make him even more interested.

However, her current thorny look is quite attractive.

The man looked at her indifferent expression, but wondered in his heart, what expression would she have when she begged for mercy under him later?

"You should be the one who is afraid. You don't think that no one has come to look for me after I've been missing for so long, do you?"

The man looked smug. "So what? My place is hidden and few people know about it. I have more than enough time to finish my work before they come. By then, the place will be empty. What evidence do you have?"

Shen Nankui took a deep breath and said, "I advise you to think carefully about this. Perhaps I am someone you cannot afford to offend. Don't regret it for the rest of your life because of a momentary impulse."

"If I don't kidnap you, I will regret it for the rest of my life!"

The man stared at her. "I know what you are confident about. You just think that you are a teacher in a private school and the head of the village will protect you. But I am not afraid of that old man. If I like a woman, I must get her!"

"My husband is a scholar, and he has a great reputation."

"I am just a scholar, not an official. Even the county magistrate has to be polite to me. Who do you think you are, man?"

Shen Nankui heard his loud tone and it seemed that he had quite a background.

She smiled gently, "You only know that my husband is a scholar, but you don't know that his teacher is the most famous scholar in Cang County, Mr. Hu. As for me, although I am just a private school teacher, my father is an official appointed by the court, and my sister married into the Jianning Marquis's mansion and is the wife of a prince."

"You robbed me, aren't you afraid of the disaster that will come?"

Although she was tied up, her aura was inviolable.

The man felt a little scared for some reason when she glared at him.

After a while, he shook his head and said, "I don't believe it. If your family is really so powerful, why would you marry into such a rural place?"

Shen Nankui sneered and didn't respond, as if he was being very stupid.

Seeing her like this, the man felt a little panicked.

Shen Nankui said: "If you let me go now, I can pretend that nothing happened and just tell others that you invited me here to discuss academic matters."

The man looked a little hesitant.

Shen Nankui did not urge her. She moved back with great effort, leaned against the wall, and simply closed her eyes to rest.

The man's face was uncertain, and there was a dangerous light in his small eyes.

"If you dare to lie to me, I will kill you."

Shen Nankui did not open his eyes, and said proudly: "Why would I lie to you? This is not the first time you have robbed a woman, but you tied me up today, do you think I am afraid?"

She was indeed different from other women in the past. She was so calm.

Except for the fact that he seemed frightened when he was first captured, he didn't make any noise or noise along the way. Even after coming here, he still didn't show any fear.

If she is not a fool, then she must be so confident that no one dares to touch her.

But she is a teacher in a private school, she can't be a fool.

Could it be that what she said was true...

Is she really related to the Marquis' Mansion?

The man began to grumble in his heart, and after thinking it over again and again, he suddenly smiled.

"Master, don't be angry. I was just joking with you. I will untie you right away."

Shen Nankui snorted coldly, "You're smart."

Meeting this kind of person is more like a game. The more afraid you are of begging for mercy, the more sense of accomplishment they will have. But if you are not afraid, they will reconsider whether it is worth taking the risk.

The man smiled apologetically and untied her immediately.

Shen Nankui stretched his sore wrist and ordered, "Tell someone to lead the way and send me back."

The more she acted, the more convinced the man became, and he nodded in agreement.

But when he saw Shen Nankui was about to leave, he was extremely reluctant to give up this good fortune that was right before his eyes.

He thought he had seen countless women, but he had never seen anyone like Shen Nankui.

It would be a pity to let her go like this.

The man suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Shen Nankui's wrist, "I regret it."

A lewd smile appeared on his face.

"To die under the peony flowers is to be a romantic ghost. Today I still want to be a romantic ghost for once!"
