191: Shi Qing returns late at night, ripples in the house

In the following few days, everything was peaceful.

It was just hard on Min Rou, who had to endure Ning Yuan's intrusion every night.

After several times, Min Rou passively accepted it, losing the firm will to resist she had at the beginning.

Until the appearance of Zhang San and Li Si.

"Manor Lord Shi and Min Rou of Xuan Su Manor, receive the order."

Zhang San and Li Si appeared outside the gate of Xuan Su Manor and shouted loudly.

Inside the room, Min Rou was stunned when she heard the news from outside, then she looked at Ning Yuan.

"It is the voice of those two envoys from Xia Ke Island; it seems they are here to issue a Xia Ke Token to you and Manor Lord Shi," Ning Yuan said directly.

"Then should I accept it?" Min Rou looked hesitant.

After all, she had witnessed the strength of those two, and for so many years, the previous wave of experts who went to Xia Ke Island had never returned.

"Accept it, why not?" Ning Yuan smiled indifferently and said confidently, "Go ahead without worry; I will handle everything."

"That's true. Whether we accept it or not, it seems we cannot refuse."

Min Rou also thought about the matter with Chang Le Gang. It was because of the matter regarding Xia Ke Island that they wanted to capture her son, Shi Zhongyu, to be a scapegoat and go to Xia Ke Island.

Even Chang Le Gang was like this, so how could they refuse? After all, they were not Ning Yuan and did not have that kind of strength.

"Mother, it's Xia Ke Island. I seem to have heard of it at Chang Le Gang. It seems that was the reason they captured me and made me the leader of Chang Le Gang."

After hearing the words of Zhang San and Li Si from Xia Ke Island, Shi Zhongyu also ran in, panicked.

"What are you panicking about?" Min Rou frowned and shouted in a deep voice, "I am still here; the sky will not fall."

"Even if it falls, your father can hold it up for you," Ning Yuan said, squinting his eyes at Shi Zhongyu.

"Adoptive father is mighty!" Hearing this, Shi Zhongyu's eyes lit up, and he immediately calmed down.

The feeling of having a backer is just different.

Min Rou then went out to receive the order.

"Rest assured, two envoys. My husband and I will arrive at the place on time and wait," Min Rou said calmly after receiving the token, appearing extremely composed and calm.

It was as if she had never heard of the reputation of Xia Ke Island.

Zhang San and Li Si clicked their tongues in wonder, "As expected of the Ice and Snow Divine Sword, renowned and famous. You are one of the few people we have met during this period who can accept the Xia Ke Token so calmly. You are truly a legendary chivalrous woman famous throughout the Jianghu."

Zhang San praised her. But for Min Rou now, it sounded a bit harsh, yet she could not lash out, so she could only say, "I am actually quite curious about Xia Ke Island; your invitation token has arrived just in time."

"Hahaha, good. Then we will await your arrival on the boat," Zhang San and Li Si laughed, flashed away, and left, their speed shocking.

At the same time, near Chang Le Gang, Shi Qing appeared low-profile.

After some side inquiries, he confirmed that Min Rou had previously taken Shi Zhongyu away with a man who was referred to as him, which made Shi Qing feel complex.

Shi Qing found an opportunity and caught a middle-level member of Chang Le Gang.

"Are you asking about the Black and White Swords couple? This matter is true, but that couple has already taken Shi Zhongyu away. By now, they have probably returned to Xuan Su Manor. It's useless for you to look for us at Chang Le Gang," the middle-aged manager said quickly.

"I just want to know, can you be sure it was the couple, Shi Qing and Min Rou?" Shi Qing asked in a deep voice.

The manager laughed, "Of course, I can be sure. I saw with my own eyes that Shi Zhongyu called them Father and Mother. Could this be fake? Could it be that the Ice and Snow Divine Sword doesn't recognize her own husband? Or that Shi Zhongyu doesn't recognize his own father?"

"Do you know the appearance of that man?" Hearing this, Shi Qing immediately grabbed the manager's collar, "I have no grudge against you. As long as you tell me what you saw truthfully, I will let you go."

"Really?" Hearing this, the manager's eyes lit up. What he feared most now was offending someone or being silenced.

"Hmph, I have walked the Jianghu for many years and have always acted uprightly. I would never kill an innocent person by mistake. Besides, this matter has nothing to do with you. I only want to know what happened; what is the point of killing you?" Shi Qing snorted, held his head high, and said proudly.

"Thank you, Hero. Since that's the case, then I will tell you." Hearing this, the manager hesitated for a moment, then immediately sat up straight and recounted the events one by one.

After hearing this content, Shi Qing's expression changed, showing shock, then astonishment, and then realization.

After a long while, a smile appeared on Shi Qing's Face, he waved his hand, and said indifferently, "You may go."

"Thank you, Hero, for sparing my life!" Seeing that Shi Qing really had no intention of taking his life, the manager ran away quickly.

Shi Qing also chuckled, his expression relaxing, "So it was Headmaster Yue; I wondered who it was!"

"If it was Headmaster Yue, then it's nothing strange. Only Headmaster Yue has the strength to suppress Chang Le Gang. My wife probably saw this point, so she did not clarify Headmaster Yue's identity."

"As for Shi Zhongyu, hmph, this guy is crafty. It seems he also saw the reason, so he called him Father directly to avoid any more trouble. However, when I go back, I should still teach him a lesson. Is 'Father' something you can just call anyone?"

"You call someone else Father? Then what am I?" Shi Qing muttered to himself, and his whole person relaxed, "Although I don't know how my wife invited Headmaster Yue down the mountain, after I see him, I really need to thank him properly."

"I might as well not rest; I will hurry now and return to the manor tonight." Thinking of this, Shi Qing immediately mounted his horse and set off.

Inside Xuan Su Manor, accompanied by the silence of the night, in Min Rou and Shi Qing's room, Ning Yuan was holding Min Rou as they slept.

"Madam, your skin is so soft. Manor Lord Shi is truly blessed but doesn't know it. Having such a beautiful wife, he still goes out messing with other women."

Ning Yuan's fingers slid across Min Rou's body, and he sighed softly. Min Rou's Face flushed, and then she snorted without speaking.

Every time Shi Qing was mentioned, she was too embarrassed to answer.

"Madam, who do you think is more powerful, me or Hero Shi?" Ning Yuan lifted Min Rou's rounded chin and asked playfully.

"Why are you asking this?" Min Rou was blushing for a moment, "Do you have to humiliate me?"

"Alright, alright, Madam, I didn't mean it. I just wanted to know who, Manor Lord Shi or I, can make you happier. If you really don't want to answer, how could I force you!" Ning Yuan quickly comforted her gently.

At this time, Shi Qing finally rushed back to Xuan Su Manor and immediately knocked on the door.

After the gatekeeper was awakened, he saw it was Shi Qing and immediately looked happy, "It's the Manor Lord who has returned. Manor Lord, you have finally returned."

"Have the Madam and Yu'er returned?" Shi Qing asked immediately.

"They have returned; they have been back for a while," the gatekeeper nodded and replied immediately.

"Good, I'll go see the Madam first!" Hearing that Min Rou and the others had indeed returned, Shi Qing said impatiently.

"The Madam is already resting; should I notify her?" the steward asked.

"No need, I will go straight to the room." Shi Qing didn't think much of it and immediately headed straight to the bedroom.

Arriving outside the door, Shi Qing pushed the door directly, but it didn't open.

"Who?" Min Rou in the room was immediately startled, her hand pressed against Ning Yuan's chest, she turned her head, revealing a look of vigilance, and shouted in a low voice.

"Junior Sister, it's me!" Shi Qing smiled outside the door, "I'm back."

"Senior Brother?" Hearing Shi Qing's voice, Min Rou's body immediately tensed, her legs couldn't help but clamp tightly around Ning Yuan's waist, and she stammered, "Senior Brother, you're back?"

"Yes, haven't you rested? Let me go in and talk," Shi Qing felt a bit strange and couldn't help but say.

"You are not allowed to come in." Upon hearing this, Min Rou was terrified, immediately shouted loudly, and then realized she had been a bit excessive, immediately trying to remedy it, and snorted, "You still know how to come back? If I waited for you to find Yu'er, I'm afraid I wouldn't see him for the rest of my life. I don't want to see you."

Shi Qing, who was originally suspicious, heard these words and his doubts were dispelled a little, and he smiled bitterly, "Junior Sister, you have to listen to my explanation!"

"I have been searching outside all this time, and I have even searched through my enemies, but I couldn't find any trace. Fortunately, you brought him back. As for the specific details, why don't we wait until I go in to talk?"

"No." Min Rou glanced at the person pressing on her and shouted quickly.

If Shi Qing came in at this time, wouldn't she be exposed? Although she had seen Shi Qing with Mei Fanggu, she had not caught them in bed. But if she were exposed now, wouldn't...

Thinking of this, Min Rou became even more anxious and could only say, "I don't want to hear your explanation; let's talk about anything tomorrow."

Ning Yuan was moving slowly at this moment. Min Rou could only grit her teeth, frown, and restrain her voice so that it wouldn't reveal any strange emotions or sounds.

Although she wanted to stop Ning Yuan's movements, she didn't dare to move too much at this time, so she could only glare at Ning Yuan and restrain herself.

"This..." Shi Qing outside the door frowned tightly.

"I'm sleepy." Min Rou didn't want to talk nonsense; the more she said, the more mistakes she would make.

Hearing this, Shi Qing also sighed and began to imagine, "Fine, I know Junior Sister is still angry with me, angry that I didn't find Yu'er. I understand. When you are no longer angry, I will come to explain it to you tomorrow."

Hearing the footsteps outside the door fade away, Min Rou breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Ning Yuan, "What are you doing? Aren't you afraid of being discovered if..." Min Rou said with a panicked Face.

"Anyway, he is already outside the door. If he really wanted to break in, no matter if I move or not, he would know." Ning Yuan chuckled, "Since we cannot change the facts, we might as well enjoy the moment. And Madam, don't you find it very exciting?"

"I don't." Min Rou snorted and rolled her eyes.

"Madam, your body is not as honest as you are!" Ning Yuan smiled slightly and whispered, "I could feel how you were when Manor Lord Shi was outside just now..."

"Don't say any more." Hearing this, Min Rou immediately stopped him, blushing.

Then she said, "Senior Brother is back, why don't you leave quickly? What if Senior Brother returns and insists on coming in?"

"Madam, don't worry about these things. I think Manor Lord Shi won't suddenly come back. I will leave tomorrow morning, and he won't see any problems."

Ning Yuan pressed down again, and Min Rou didn't dare to cry out loudly, so she could only grit her teeth and emit a muffled groan.

The next morning. "I heard early this morning that Manor Lord Shi has returned; it's been a long time," Ning Yuan said with a smile.

Seeing Ning Yuan, Shi Qing immediately stepped forward to pay his respects and said excitedly, "I thank Headmaster Yue. I have already heard about Yu'er's matter. If not for Headmaster Yue coming down the mountain to help my wife, I am afraid Yu'er would have encountered danger. I am truly grateful. Tonight, I must have a good drink with Headmaster Yue to express my gratitude."

"Manor Lord Shi, don't say that. We are family, so there's no need for such formalities." Ning Yuan helped Shi Qing up and said with a serious Face, "Manor Lord Shi, you don't know yet, but Shi Zhongyu has already accepted me as his adoptive father. From now on, he is also my son, and we should be brothers."

"Ah?" Hearing this, Shi Qing was shocked, "Is there such a thing?"

Shi Qing frowned, and then heard Ning Yuan continue, "Could it be that Manor Lord Shi doesn't agree? I am also sorry for not getting Manor Lord Shi's consent."

"No, no." Hearing this, a flash of complexity crossed Shi Qing's Face, then he immediately shook his head and smiled, "His personality is stubborn, and being able to worship such an expert as Headmaster Yue as an adoptive father is his good fortune. How could I, as a father, disagree? It's just that Headmaster Yue will have to worry about him in the future."

"Rest assured, Brother Shi. From now on, Shi Zhongyu will be our common son, and I will educate him well," Ning Yuan laughed and indicated.

"Then I will have to rely on Headmaster Yue to worry about him. To be ashamed, this child is stubborn, and at Snow Mountain Sect, he even did intolerable evil deeds. I originally wanted to take him back to Snow Mountain Sect to be punished, but..." Shi Qing sighed deeply.

"Brother Shi, you are exaggerating. No matter how stubborn Shi Zhongyu is, he is still a child after all. Although he made some mistakes, as parents, we must give him a chance to repent. I also heard about his matter from Junior Sister. Didn't it not succeed in the end?"

"Since that is the case, there is room for redemption. If Snow Mountain Sect insists on his life, it is too harsh. If they come looking for him, let me talk to them. I believe they will also give me this Face." Ning Yuan said disapprovingly.

"Sigh, this is the only way now." Shi Qing smiled bitterly.

"What are you talking about?" At this time, Min Rou also walked out dressed in festive attire.

"Junior Sister." Seeing Min Rou, Shi Qing immediately greeted her with a smile.

"Hmph." But Min Rou didn't have a good expression, turned her head away, and sneered, "You still remember to come back? I thought you were already immersed in the land of tenderness and had long forgotten about Yu'er and this home."

Hearing this, Shi Qing's expression was stunned, "What do you mean by that, Junior Sister?"

"Hmph, now that adoptive brother is here, I don't want to talk to you about your affairs." Min Rou snorted coldly and sat down directly.

"This..." Shi Qing looked around and looked at Ning Yuan. Ning Yuan shook his head slightly and didn't say much. Shi Qing had no choice but to sit down, but various conjectures arose in his heart.

Need to hurry on the road in the last two days...
