9: Cousin, I will go to my aunt to say goodbye to her in the evening!
Several days later.
A Bi arrived by boat.
She came to report on the latest Jianghu developments.
During these few days, Ning Yuan had also completely mastered all his martial arts.
And he had basically completed the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill.
Having squeezed out Li Qingluo's value, he decided to leave.
"Are you leaving tomorrow?"
Madam Wang looked at Murong Fu, and her words carried a hint of reluctance.
After all, in these past few days, she had thoroughly filled the void of more than ten years.
Starting tomorrow, she would return to her previous bland life, so naturally, she felt a bit unaccustomed.
It was fine before; after all, she had been alone for over a decade and was used to it, but now that the door had been reopened, it would be hard to close it again.
Wang Yuyan and A Bi also looked at Madam Wang with curiosity.
After Madam Wang realized her reaction, she quickly composed herself, "I haven't seen how powerful the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill is in your hands. When you return, show it to me then."
Wang Yuyan and A Bi, who were beside her, then understood.
This explanation was somewhat plausible.
"Aunt, don't worry, I will not let the Xiao Wu Xiang Skill be buried."
Ning Yuan's expression was solemn.
It was reasonable and well-founded.
"That's good. You two chat. I need to go check on the growth of the camellias behind the mountain."
Madam Wang was also worried that if she stayed longer, some flaw would be noticed.
Her foolish daughter was one thing; she was easy to fool, but A Bi was very clever and could easily spot any inconsistencies.
"Aunt, take care."
Ning Yuan stood up to see her off.
After Li Qingluo left, Ning Yuan sat down again.
"Young Master, I heard that the Beggar Clan is about to re-elect its Chief. Should we join in the fun?"
A Bi asked.
"Oh, has it started already?"
Ning Yuan's eyes flickered upon hearing this, then he said, "Perhaps, but I plan to go to Dali first."
"Dali?"
A Bi looked puzzled.
She didn't know why Murong Fu would go to Dali.
However, she continued, "Young Master, I heard that the Four Evils, who are very famous in the Jianghu, have joined the Western Xia First Rank Hall and are currently in Dali. I wonder what they intend to do."
"What they intend to do, won't we know if we go and see?"
Ning Yuan smiled slightly.
At this moment, Wang Yuyan, who was beside them, couldn't help but ask, "Cousin, can I go to Dali with you?"
Wang Yuyan's big eyes were full of anticipation.
Ning Yuan paused for a moment, then shook his head, and said solemnly, "Cousin, the journey to Dali is long. You should stay home. I will be back in a month at most."
"Alright!"
Wang Yuyan lowered her head in disappointment.
Seeing this, Ning Yuan comforted her, "When I return next time, I will talk to Aunt about our matters."
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yuyan's eyes immediately lit up.
These words surprised A Bi, who was beside them.
"Strange, ever since Young Master woke up from his coma a few days ago, he feels like a changed person."
"He doesn't even mention the matter of restoring the nation anymore. Previously, Young Master's entire heart was set on restoring the nation. This time, he actually took the initiative to send Young Miss home and stayed for so long."
"And he's even preparing to talk to Madam Wang about matters concerning Young Miss. Could it be..."
Although A Bi was puzzled, she also breathed a sigh of relief.
Restoring the nation was too elusive, but she had never dared to dissuade Young Master. If Young Master himself had come to his senses, that would naturally be for the best.
"A Bi, you go back and prepare with A Zhu. We will depart tomorrow."
Ning Yuan said to A Bi.
"Alright, I'll go back and prepare now."
A Bi immediately nodded, then turned and left.
She always carried out Murong Fu's requests meticulously.
"Cousin, then you must be careful on your journey."
Wang Yuyan showed concern.
"Don't worry."
Ning Yuan's eyes flickered, and he smiled reassuringly, "Tonight, I will go see Aunt to bid her farewell."
Ning Yuan deliberately emphasized the words 'bid farewell'.
Until late at night.
Ning Yuan entered Madam Wang's room.
As soon as he entered, Madam Wang clung to him and locked the door.
"You scoundrel, you're finally here!"
As soon as Ning Yuan entered, Madam Wang threw herself into his arms.
A fragrant scent permeated the air, and her coiled dark hair was damp, indicating she had just bathed.
"You're leaving tomorrow, so you must satisfy me tonight!"
Madam Wang looked up, her eyes wide, and said eagerly.
As she spoke, she had already begun to unbutton Ning Yuan's clothes.
Gone was her usual haughtiness.
After a storm, it was already late at night.
Inside the bathtub.
Madam Wang lay weakly in Ning Yuan's embrace, her arms around Ning Yuan's neck, her entire body like noodles, unable to muster any strength.
The bathtub, filled with red petals, further accentuated Madam Wang's delicate and rosy skin.
"On this trip to Dali, I will settle your affairs with Duan Zhengchun. What do you think?"
Ning Yuan spoke softly.
Upon hearing this, Madam Wang's eyes snapped open. She wanted to retort, but remembering the various punishments she had received earlier, she immediately softened again, and said with a complex expression, "It should be resolved sooner. That heartless man hasn't come to see me for so many years, which shows his coldness. But..."
Madam Wang let out a soft hmph, expressing her dissatisfaction, but as she continued, she showed hesitation.
"Do you have an objection?"
Ning Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he pinched Madam Wang's chin, turning her face towards him.
Seeing Murong Fu like this, Madam Wang immediately showed fear, evidently remembering the last punishment; she still felt a burning sensation on her back, and she shook her head repeatedly, "Of course I have no objection. I have long had no feelings for him."
"That's good."
Upon hearing this, Ning Yuan showed a satisfied expression.
"However, how do you plan to handle this matter?"
Madam Wang was silent for a moment, but still couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
After all, the entanglement between Duan Zhengchun and her was not shallow.
"What? You're reluctant?"
Ning Yuan's eyes showed a cold glint.
Madam Wang quickly shook her head, clearly frightened, and immediately explained, "I'm just a bit curious. If you don't want to say, then don't say."
Madam Wang was originally a ruthless and arrogant person, but in these past few days, she had been completely conquered by Ning Yuan.
As soon as she saw Ning Yuan's expression, she dared not say more.
"Don't worry, I won't kill him for now."
Seeing Madam Wang's current appearance, Ning Yuan smiled slightly, his tone becoming gentle, "Moreover, I have other matters to attend to on this trip to Dali, and this matter requires me to ask you."
"Ask me?"
Madam Wang's almond-shaped eyes widened, her dewy eyes filled with confusion and incomprehension.
"The books in Langhuan Jade Grotto, you were the one who transported them back from Wuliang Mountain in Dali, weren't you?"
Ning Yuan asked directly.
Madam Wang nodded, "That's right, why do you ask?"
"I want to know the location of Langhuan Paradise."
Ning Yuan gently pinched her, and Madam Wang's eyes were hazy with desire, "So it's about this. I naturally know the location, but you must..."
"Get up."
Ning Yuan patted Madam Wang's bottom upon hearing this.
Madam Wang rolled her eyes, but still got up as told.
It was another night of fierce wind and rain.
Had something to do, just got back! Please support me! Mwah~~~
