Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 1595 Missed

Lord Liu crossed his arms, looking like he was watching a show. Dugu Linkai clenched his fists and looked at Dugu Ming, who was standing aside with his head down and keeping silent, and he became even more angry.

"What are you standing there for? Let's go!" Dugu Linkai growled. Dugu Ming was still holding the broken hair in his hand. "I want to stay and wait for the result of this court trial."

"What nonsense are you talking about? She has severed ties with the Dugu family!" Dugu Linkai said angrily, "Now everyone in the hall has nothing to do with the Dugu family, so why are you staying here?"

Dugu Ming stiffened his neck, looking unshakable and stubborn. Seeing this, Dugu Linkai couldn't help but roar, "Have you forgotten the purpose of your trip? If this court trial doesn't produce any results in ten days or half a month, how long will you wait?"

Dugu Ming turned his head away, "I will wait. Not to mention ten days or half a month, even if it's half a year or a year, I will wait."

"Nonsense!" Dugu Linkai was furious. Before he could vent his anger, he heard Xiahou Yunzhao beside him say in a deep voice: "General Dugu is reluctant to leave the hall. Are you waiting for me to ask you to leave?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Linkai glared at Xiahou Yunzhao, but he dared not say anything. In the end, he walked away unwillingly.

Murong Qing watched the drama with cold eyes, thinking that the Dugu family sent such a person, which wasted Fang Zilan's good intentions. If it weren't for Dugu Linxiu's determination, the Dugu family would have had a hard time escaping the disaster.

Even in the current situation, it is too early to say that they have escaped. It can be seen that there are not many people left in the Dugu family, but Dugu Ming...

Murong Qing looked at Dugu Ming, who was walking back to the audience with a gloomy look on his face. What on earth was he stubborn about? As long as he wanted, even if he couldn't stay out of it, he could just stay out of it. There was no need to get involved in this muddy water...

Thinking of this, Murong Qing suddenly realized that this was the same situation as Fang Zilan's. Sure enough, the endings of those who valued family, country and human feelings were mostly similar. Trapped in it, alone, it was like...

His father who stayed in Miluo.

In an instant, Murong Qing seemed to see many people through Dugu Ming, who had been abandoned by him intentionally or unintentionally, and whom he thought he would never care about again in this life. However, they appeared in his mind one by one in this way, entangled endlessly, and destined to be inseparable.

Murong Qing closed his eyes, collected his thoughts, and tried his best not to let himself be affected by this trial. Even if he was involved for Fang Zilan, he should be the one who watched from the sidelines.

After Dugu Linxiu severed her relationship with the Dugu family, she had no scruples. Not only did she use testimony to drag down all the five families in Lingnan, but she also produced more physical evidence. In addition to the account books, she also revealed the locations of poisonous insects and poisonous plants stored outside, and all of them were seized.

In just a few days, Dugu Linxiu confessed everything he knew. After investigation, the Xiahou family was soon implicated. Xiahou Yunzhao's statement that she was willing to accept the charges and be temporarily detained came true, so she asked to be imprisoned, and the court trial was pushed to a climax.

On the day Xiahou Yunzhao was imprisoned, Fang Zilan finally appeared in court. Although she still looked sick, she looked energetic.

She looked at Dugu Linxiu and Wu Ying who were kneeling in the court. Although one of them was kneeling, her back was still very straight, while the other was almost kneeling on the ground, as if she had lost all her strength.

The two people were completely different and in different situations. The former broke off all ties with the Dugu family, choosing to live and die with Fu Congnan, while the latter refused to let go of either side, hesitating and not saying anything clearly, watching the Wu family crumble while half-heartedly sending the Xiahou family into the abyss.

"Wu Ying, you said it was a pity that I lost that day." Dugu Linxiu stood up and asked suddenly before being taken away for detention: "Did you win or lose?"

She was now without any jewelry or fancy clothes, and her long hair had been cut off on the day she broke up with the Dugu family. She was tied behind her head with only a piece of cloth, but she was meticulous. Wu Ying looked up and hesitated to speak. Dugu Linxiu seemed calm and composed, but in fact, he cared more about winning or losing than anyone else, otherwise he would not have provoked her at this critical moment.

But what does winning or losing mean to her? That is what the Wu family and the Xiahou family care about, and it is not what she wants.

Seeing Wu Ying hanging her head and keeping silent, Dugu Linxiu did not ask any further questions and was taken away.

Fang Zilan pursed her lips and quietly chased after her, "Miss Dugu, please stay."

Dugu Linxiu stopped and said, "Madam, there is no Dugu Linxiu in front of you, there is only Madam Fu."

Fang Zilan did not continue to follow Dugu Linxiu's words, but instead said to herself: "I once had a friend who was similar to you. He bet his entire life on one person and did his utmost to justify his reputation."

"Hongtai, you and I are not from the same place." Fang Zilan's expression grew colder, "The sky is high and the sea is vast, how can a mere Feiling Mountain keep me?"

"My little beauty, I have no intention of forcing you to stay." Hong Tai tightened his grip on Fang Zilan's hand. "It's just that you're already worried, aren't you?"

"You two brothers are really..." Fang Zilan gnashed her teeth unconsciously and said, "You are good at flattery and scheming."

"Don't you like those who are cunning and scheming?" Hong Tai smiled even more. "Otherwise, why would you be entangled with Ji Ningtian, the most cunning and scheming man in the world?"

"Don't mention this name in front of me." Fang Zilan shook off Hongtai's hand, but Hongtai was not annoyed at all, "Okay, I'll listen to you, little beauty."

He still had a cynical and frivolous look on his face, which made Fang Zilan angry. She had to calm herself down and said, "Since you promised me, you can't go back on your word."

"It's a deal." Hong Tai stretched out his hand, but Fang Zilan ignored him and turned to leave.

Hong Tai quickly followed, "My little beauty, you are still injured, why are you walking so fast? Wait for me..."

He kept muttering behind her, and Fang Zilan was annoyed. She said unhappily, "If you raise your voice a little louder, you'll attract the government officials."

"Are you worried about me, my little beauty?" Hong Tai didn't say anything serious. Fang Zilan was too lazy to talk to him, so he soon calmed down. The two of them returned to Feiling Mountain in silence.

Wan Jun and Zhen Mi'er breathed a sigh of relief at the same time when they saw Fang Zilan. Hong He, who was standing by, threw herself directly into Hong Tai's arms, her eyes red with excitement, "Brother!"

"Lan'er." Zhen Mi'er helped Fang Zilan over and looked at the wound on her shoulder. A hint of worry flashed in her eyes, but before she could say anything, she shook her head.

"Ms. Honghe, Zixiu has brought your brother Hongtai back." Wan Jun stood in front of Fang Zilan and Zhen Mier, and said in a dignified manner, "Please hand over Miss Awan."
