I’m Being Held Captive by Demons Chapter 122: White Moonlight

In the beginning, he didn't feel any heart-wrenching pain.

Even when he killed the demon girl with his own hands, his mood was as cold as a stone and completely unmoved.

However, now that everything is over and the dust has settled, standing in the yard where the two once lived together, watching the flames in the fire eat away those dresses.

A certain feeling slowly emerged in Kong Ning's heart.

—He's a man again.

At this moment, he suddenly understood this very clearly.

In the yard where he was alone, he was the only one left in the end.

The woman who stretched her neck out from the stove with a smile and looked at him every day after returning home from the ya, has disappeared.

Don't worry about the demon eggs in your stomach, and when the witch will kill him.

Naturally, no one will come over with steaming delicious food and sit at the dining table with a smile to share with him the interesting things they saw today.

Lying on the bed every night, there will no longer be a soft and jade-like body clinging to him, pretending to be coquettish.

He is finally free and safe.

Just...

Kong Ning by the fire was silent.

Soon, Wan'er brought Xu Caiwei over.

The two girls, one big and one small, saw Kong Ning burning clothes in the yard, so they didn't dare to speak.

They are here to help Kong Ning clean up.

Because there are too many things piled up in Kong Ning's house.

Many were gifts from relatives, friends, and neighbors when Kong Ning took office.

Now that Kongning is leaving, it would be a pity if those things rot in the utility room.

Kong Ning intends to tidy it up and take it out to give to friends in the neighborhood.

The three of them watched the things in the yard burn before they walked to the backyard and opened the long-closed utility room.

It says it's a utility room, but it's actually a pretty big empty room.

It's just that there is only one person in Kong Ning's house, so it's just used to store things that are not needed.

There is a dazzling array of things in this room, everything.

In it, there's even a gift list.

After opening Kong Ning, I saw lines of beautiful fonts.

Once the hostess of this family carefully recorded who the gifts came from, who gave them what, who needed gifts in return, what they wanted... These things were recorded in detail.

And she did too.

Anyone who gave a return gift, she would draw a line lightly at the back.

And judging from the handwriting on the gift list, she prepared those return gifts with great care, not simply giving something to fool things, but spending a lot of thought.

That witch, she has nothing to do at home every day, so she is tinkering with these boring things...

Kong Ning looked at the gift list in his hand, but did not speak.

The line representing the return gift stops abruptly when it reaches a quarter of the gift list.

None of the people behind her received her return gift.

There will be no return gifts in the future.

Throwing this gift list to Wan'er, Kong Ning said, "Wait a while to burn it."

After speaking, he silently sorted out the various gifts in the house.

There are some valuable things in here, such as bird's nest and deer antler, which need to be carefully preserved.

But not long after, Wan'er's curious voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Ning Zhaotou, what is this box? It's not on the gift list."

Wan'er's curious question made Kong Ning turn around.

Then saw the girl lift out a small wooden box from the corner.

When she opened the box, she saw many beautifully packaged books inside.

Kong Ning walked quickly to her side and said, "This book was deposited with me by Scholar Yu from Dianyu Bookstore, and I have to send it back to him later."

As Kong Ning said this, he put his hand on the lid of the wooden box.

Plan to close the lid.

The books lying quietly in the box are beautifully packaged and worth a lot of money at first glance.

Fortunately, there is no graphic on the cover, and no one knows what's inside.

This box of books was originally hidden in the utility room, and I planned to find a chance to get it out, but I didn't expect that Kong Ning was getting busier and busier in the back, and almost forgot it.

Now she was lifted out of the corner by Wan'er, looking at the beautifully packaged pages, her empty hand paused slightly.

In today's homes, no one likes reading this kind of book anymore.

These books, naturally, have no meaning left.

Closing the lid of the box, Kong Ning said calmly, "I'll return this book to the scholar in a moment."

Speaking, he raised his head, only to see Wan'er looking at him in amazement and worry.

Looks a little weird.

Kong Ning was stunned for a moment, a little confused: "Wan'er? What's wrong?"

Kong Ning was very puzzled.

In the room full of debris, the girl in white looked at Kong Ning in panic, feeling a little helpless.

"Ning Zhaotou, you... are you all right?" Wan'er was worried and panicked.

The man opposite her looked surprised and smiled in surprise: "Me? I'm fine? What's wrong?"

The sun shines through the window and falls on the man.

The line that slid from the corner of his eyes was wet and shone slightly.

But he doesn't seem to notice it.

He just looked at the girl in front of him with a confused expression, expressing puzzlement.

But the sad tears had already slipped down his face and merged into a shallow river.

……

…………

In the end, the box of books was returned to Scholar Yu from Dianyu Pavilion.

Books are expensive in this day and age.

Not to mention this box of beautifully packaged banned books.

Kong Ning took the initiative to send the book back, Yu Scholar was overjoyed, but he still wanted to be polite.

However, after Kong Ning stated that he was going to go away tomorrow and it was inconvenient to bring these books, Scholar Yu reluctantly accepted them.

He also said that he was only helping Kong Ning keep it, and he would come to pick it up when Kong Ning came back.

After returning the box of books, Kong Ning went directly to the Spring Breeze Building.

The things in the house have been scattered by him, and all of them have been given to the acquaintances of the neighbors, so as not to waste them.

Nowadays, his home in Huaishu Lane is a family with nothing left.

And knowing that he was leaving tomorrow, the group of colleagues in the yamen all ran over, no matter what, they would invite Kong Ning to have a last drink.

Different from the residents in the city who are fearful and grateful to Kong Ning, these colleagues in the yamen can still maintain their former appearances in front of Kong Ning, and will not appear too cramped.

This gave Kong Ning a little comfort. He agreed to their invitation and went to Chunfenglou to gather for the last time.

Kong Ning knew in his heart that if he left this time, he probably wouldn't come back in the future.

Being able to have a last drink with these former friends is also a goodbye.

The atmosphere was warm during the banquet. Although the crowd was a bit cramped at first, after drinking high, they returned to their former indulgence.

The laughter keeps coming.

Kong Ning, who was sitting there, was infected and had a lot of smiles on his face.

And because of Kong Ning's face, some of the hottest girls in the Spring Wind Building will all come to accompany you tonight.

This makes you guys very happy.

Although they're all regulars here, it's not always the case that they can invite the top girl.

Not to mention being able to gather these top girls at a table, this is the first time for them, so they are all happy and indulgent.

During the banquet, the atmosphere was warm and the atmosphere was warm.

Kong Ning sat there, chatting with everyone, smiling brightly.

It's just that he looked at the beautiful girls in the room for a while, but suddenly became curious.

Can't help but ask: "Where's Miss Yue'er? Why don't you see Miss Yue'er today?"

The girls who accompany the wine in the elegant room are not bad looking, but they are the hottest ones in Chunfenglou.

But only one face is missing.

For some unknown reason, Kong Ning suddenly asked such a question.

However, after Kongning finished asking, Ma Liu next to him was confused.

"Miss Yue'er?" Ma Liu looked at Kong Ning in surprise, and said, "Ningtou, are you drinking too much? Let's Chunfenglou, when will there be a girl Yue'er?"

The girl who accompanied the drink next to me also laughed and said, "Yes, Mr. Ning, we don't have a girl named Yue'er in our building... You can't remember wrong?"

The crowd ~IndoMTL.com~ laughed and joked.

Kong Ning's expression was slightly stunned.

In my ears, the joking words of the demon girl suddenly sounded.

"...Husband, you have slept with Yue'er, so you should be able to understand the difference between us?"

However, there is no girl Yue'er in the Spring Breeze Building.

Then that night...

Kong Ning, who was sitting in the room, suddenly laughed happily.

I laughed so hard that my tears came out.

"Hahaha...that's what it is, that's what it is."

"There is really no girl Yue'er in the Spring Breeze Building!"

It turned out that the woman lying beside him was the only one from beginning to end.
