Extra Chapter: Ning Gui

Ning Gui learned about Ning Shen's imprisonment in the lab.

When she received her mother's call, she was still in a daze. The oppressive mountain she'd always feared had suddenly been lifted.

"Gui, Ning Shen has fallen. He's in prison now. The Ning and Xiao families lost the battle, and they're planning to abandon him, choosing a new Family Head. From now on, no one will bully us anymore. We can finally leave the Ning family and live peacefully…"

Mrs. Ning was sobbing with joy.

She remembered the time Ning Shen had unleashed a vicious dog to threaten her and Ning Gui, forcing them to live in constant fear. All these years, Mrs. Ning had dreaded angering Ning Shen, fearing the wrath of this madman.

As she spoke about a new life beyond the Ning family, Ning Gui's face slowly grew blank.
