In less than ten days, Luo Ying had become noticeably haggard, and her usual nobility and arrogance were nowhere to be seen.
But Zheng Kaiyuan could not keep giving in on Zheng Ningshuang's matter.
“She did something wrong, so she should be punished.”
Luo Ying crawled a few steps on her knees, grabbed Zheng Kaiyuan's clothes, and pleaded, "I know, I know everything."
Ning Shuang is only fifteen years old, Immortal Venerable! Three whole months! She simply couldn't endure it!
It's my fault for not teaching her well. I'll take the punishment for her, okay?
This is the last time I'm begging you!
I beg you! Spare my child!
Luo Ying kept kowtowing, her hairpins and jewelry scattered all over the ground, looking like a madwoman.
Zheng Kaiyuan sighed: "Only you are allowed to go in. Apart from Qi-replenishing pills, you are not allowed to give her any other pills."
Overjoyed, Luo Ying hurriedly kowtowed three times, disregarding her image, and rushed straight to the dungeon.
The guards were startled by what they saw.
Zheng Kaiyuan was not a heartless person, but he was always more indifferent than affectionate towards his wife.
He was so serious that he didn't seem like Luo Ying's husband, but rather like her father.
He was fully aware of Luo Ying's daily actions, which was why he didn't interfere much.
Firstly, the timing wasn't right, and secondly, he always wanted to give Luo Ying a chance.
Although the marriage was in name only, Zheng Kaiyuan still tried his best to fulfill the duties of a husband.
He also personally taught Zheng Ningshuang when she was young. At that time, Zheng Ningshuang was just a little willful and not as vicious as she is now.
However, as a Celestial Venerable, Zheng Kaiyuan could not always revolve around his daughter.
When Zheng Ningshuang was five years old, he went to the West. In just five years, when he returned, Zheng Ningshuang's personality had completely changed.
No matter how much they tried to educate them, they remained unchanged.
It's not easy to raise a child well, but it's all too easy to ruin one.
Luo Ying's excessive indulgence of Zheng Ningshuang has ruined the child.
In the matter of educating children, only Luo Ying's second brother in the Luo family was passable.
But it's just passable.
Luo Ying's second brother believed that "spare the rod and spoil the child," and if Luo Lianjiang made even the slightest mistake, he would be beaten with a board and a whip.
Luo Lianjiang is truly magnanimous for not developing a cowardly character.
Although Luo Ying's second sister-in-law protects the child, she can still tolerate it if the child is really wrong.
She would only fight back when her husband hit her too hard and she couldn't stand it anymore!
This lively couple both have fiery tempers, which makes it rare that they've managed to raise their child to have a calm and even personality.
Luo Lianjiang is talented and upright, but he lacks ambition and is not the best candidate to succeed the Immortal Venerable.
Luo Ying frequently hinted to Zheng Kaiyuan that he should be mentored, but Zheng Kaiyuan pretended not to see it and was also relatively indifferent to Luo Lianjiang on the surface.
The main purpose was to make Luo Ying give up on her hopes.
Actually, he quite liked the child's personality.
To be able to maintain one's true self and be open-minded in such a family is truly a rare and wonderful thing.
Luo Ying's actions have repeatedly disappointed Zheng Kaiyuan. Hopefully, this time, she will learn her lesson.
On the other side, Ding Yumin carried Ye Wan back.
Because it was so late, Chu Yiming was a little worried.
As darkness fell, they began to stand at the courtyard gate and wait.
Duan Xu laughed at him for worrying unnecessarily, like an old woman.
Cultivators patrol the area around the Immortal Venerable's Mansion every day, and no one dares to cause trouble.
As it was getting dark, Chu Yiming, who hadn't eaten dinner, paced anxiously back and forth at the door.
Upon seeing Ding Yumin's figure in the distance, Chu Yiming hurriedly went to greet her. When he got closer, he saw Ye Wan clinging to Ding Yumin's back.
Chu Yiming thought Ye Wan was injured and was extremely anxious:
"What's wrong with my junior sister?"
Ding Yumin said softly, "Keep your voice down, Wanwan is asleep."
Chu Yiming was relieved and took Ye Wan from Ding Yumin.
Ding Yumin shook her head: "It's only a few steps away, don't wake Wanwan up."
Chu Yiming laughed and said, "Don't worry, Miss Ding, my junior sister hasn't had enough sleep, no one can wake her up."
Chu Yiming lifted Ye Wan off Ding Yumin's back. Although he said Ye Wan couldn't be woken up, his movements were still very gentle.
Once in the room, Chu Yiming helped Ye Wan settle down, took off her shoes, and covered her with a blanket.
Turning around, I saw that Ding Yumin's eyes were red, as if she was about to cry.
What happened this time?
Chu Yiming asked, "What happened today? Junior Sister seems to have been crying too."
Unable to bear Chu Yiming's concerned gaze, Ding Yumin turned her back to him and wiped away her tears.
Her crying was seen by Duan Xu as he entered the room.
Duan Xu thought Chu Yiming was making a fuss over nothing. Hearing the door open, he was about to come over and mock Chu Yiming.
As soon as I entered, I saw Ding Yumin crying with her back to Chu Yiming.
"Junior sister, what's wrong with you again? Tell your senior brother, and I'll get revenge for you!"
Ding Yumin burst into laughter through her tears: "If the other person did nothing wrong, would you still go and lecture them?"
Duan Xu was dumbfounded: "What are you saying? Don't you know my own junior sister? From childhood to adulthood, I've never seen you bully anyone! If you're wronged, it must be someone else's fault!"
Ding Yumin wiped away her tears and told him everything about the fortune teller she had met that day.
Upon hearing this, Duan Xu flew into a rage: "You filthy fortune teller! How dare you curse my junior sister! I'll smash his stall tomorrow!"
Ding Yumin said, "Alright, Wanwan has already stirred things up. Don't make things worse, just focus on your cultivation."
Chu Yiming looked serious, unlike Duan Xu who was furious, and was deep in thought.
He gently comforted Ding Yumin: "Miss Ding, don't be afraid. Brother Duan and I will protect you and won't let you get hurt in the slightest."
