Chapter 44 I Can’t Laugh Anymore



Ning Cheng's expression turned cold when he thought of that family.

Before problems with his spiritual energy arose, Ning Cheng was undoubtedly trained by the Ning family as the first heir. His calm temperament and diligent attitude towards cultivation were greatly admired by his elders.

At that time, his half-brother Ning Tao always called him brother, followed him around like a follower, and said nice things to him to please him.

But later, the spiritual energy problem was exposed, and his family's attitude towards him took a sharp turn.

But none of this could compare to the blow his younger brother brought him. Ning Tao turned against him and mocked him, trampling him down with every word he said.

Later, due to poor health, my father gave up the power of housekeeper and only held the title of head of the family.

Ning Tao is good at scheming and has been recruiting and buying people off in the clan for many years. He is the most popular person in the clan. Although he does not have the title of the head of the clan in name, he is the de facto head of the clan.

Ning Cheng knew that if he always remained a "useless person", he would never be able to return home and face those people.

But now that I have activated my immortal bone, everything is no longer the same.

"If you want to go, we all support you." Ren Muqing said without hesitation, "But why did you suddenly make this decision?"

Ning Cheng told what had just happened.

That scene made Ning Cheng very uncomfortable. His daughter was so outstanding and she would reach the pinnacle of cultivation in the future, but some people looked down on her because of her so-called background!

As a father, I cannot hold my daughter back.

He must take back the Ning family.

"You're right. We're also members of the Ning family. There's no reason for us to give it up." Ren Muqing nodded after hearing this. "But Ning Tao has occupied the Ning family for many years. Everyone listens to him. We can't compete with him without some trump cards."

"As long as I get the approval of the clan elders, I will have a chance." Ning Cheng already had a plan in mind, "But before that, I have to improve my cultivation."

Ren Muqing nodded heavily, "Okay."

Two days later, it was the day when Bai Lianxin came home to visit Ning Chuanzhu.

Ning Chuanzhu took the initiative to send a sound transmission note to invite her, saying that his poison had been cured and he really wanted to see her.

Bai Lianxin suggested bringing her teammates to visit, but Ning Chuanzhu refused, saying that he wanted to talk to her alone and didn't want others to bother him.

Bai Lianxin felt that Ning Chuanzhu was acting strangely through telepathy, but she couldn't tell what was going on in just a few words.

She even suspected that Ning Chuanzhu might have guessed that she was the one who poisoned him, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was unlikely. After all, she had done it very covertly, and it was too dark in the cave that day. She had also specifically shouted to remind him, so it was impossible for him to figure out the secret.

So Bai Lianxin came alone and brought some gifts and supplements.

But when she saw Ning Chuanzhu, she was shocked.

"Hehe, Lianxin, you finally came to see me. I missed you so much."

In front of the whole family, Ning Chuanzhu went up and hugged Bai Lianxin's waist!

Bai Lianxin was stunned, her face flushed instantly, "Chuanzhu, what are you doing? There are so many people here... let go."

The two of them had never done anything so intimate before, so why was he being so offensive now, like a lecher?

Also, why does he look so...silly?

This silly smile and slightly dull eyes... made Bai Lianxin feel suspicious.

She went to see the Ning family and found that their expressions were also strange.

With some heartache and reluctance.

The person who was said to be Ning Chuanzhu's aunt kept her head down and wiping her tears with a handkerchief!

"No, I want a hug." Ning Chuanzhu endured the discomfort and held her tightly, not letting go. "You said you like me too, why can't I hug you?"

"Uncle, aunt, what happened to Chuanzhu?" Bai Lian asked anxiously.

"Alas, Chuanzhu was treated too late. Although the poison was mostly removed and his life is safe, the alchemist said that his brain was also damaged." Ning Cheng sighed, his face full of sorrow. "After he woke up, he only thought of you. He said that you were the woman he loved and that he wanted to be with you forever..."

Bai Lianxin's face turned pale.

Is there something wrong with Ning Chuanzhu's brain?

Bai Lianxin was shocked and relieved at the same time when she thought that Ning Chuanzhu, who had always been smart, brave and resourceful, would become a fool.

Fortunately, fortunately, the person who was injured by the poisonous scorpion that day was not him, but him!

Otherwise, wouldn't I be the one who becomes a fool?

I was filled with fear, but then I couldn't help but secretly praise myself for my wit and quick reaction.

"Miss Lianxin, you don't have to worry. The alchemist also said that as long as he can take good care of himself and continue to take medicine, he will most likely recover." Ren Muqing pretended to be worried while comforting Bai Lianxin, "Please wait for Chuanzhu. When he recovers, we will come to your house to propose marriage."

Bai Lianxin was not comforted at all, but was scared half to death.

The possibility of recovery does not mean that it will definitely recover!

Also, how long will it take for this recovery to happen, a year, ten years, a hundred years, or even a lifetime?

Who wants to wait for him for so long?

Moreover, even if he really recovered, who knew if it would leave any sequelae?

The word "propose marriage" made Bai Lianxin shudder. She was so scared that she shook her head repeatedly and pushed Ning Chuanzhu away with great force. "Ning Chuanzhu and I have nothing to do with each other. Don't listen to him."

Ren Fei paused as she lowered her head to wipe her tears.

She was pretending to wipe away her tears; she just lowered her head to hide the smile on her face while quietly watching the show.

But now she couldn't laugh.

This woman was screaming in a terrified tone, and had a look of disgust on her face. What was she trying to do?

Wasn't it her fault that Ning Chuanzhu was poisoned? She didn't feel any guilt or pity at all, only panic and disgust!

"No, we are related. You hinted to me when we were watching the moon together on the cliff top of Queen Peak that day." Ning Chuanzhu frowned and said aggrievedly.

Bai Lianxin denied it outright, "That's not true. You're just confused and your memory is messed up. I don't like you at all, and we have no relationship... Uncle and aunt, Ning Chuanzhu and I are just good friends from the same school. Beyond that, we have no other relationship. Please don't misunderstand me."

"You mean, you don't like him and he doesn't like you either?" Ren Muqing asked coldly.

"I don't like him, but he might be..." Bai Lianxin bit her lip, "But love is something that only two people have to be willing to have."

Ning Chuanzhu looked at Bai Lianxin and quietly clenched his hands into fists behind his back.

After that day, he no longer had any thoughts about Bai Lianxin, but now when he saw her face, he still found it ridiculous.

This is the Bai Lianxin that I used to think was elegant, polite, cute and lovely!

"sorry."

After Bai Lianxin finished speaking, she didn't even dare to look at them and ran out of the Ning family.

No one from the Ning family stopped them.

Ning Chuanzhu put away the silly look on his face and looked at his aunt.
