“I’ll have to trouble you to cure him!” Ning haolan pleaded.
“Alright!” Leng ruoxue was very generous. She then took out a milky-white pill that glowed with a brilliant light and pa.s.sed it to ning haolan. She then found a chair and sat down.
Ning haolan placed the pill into Ning Wen’s mouth. Not long after, the wounded Ning Wen slowly woke up.
Ning Wen opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was ning haolan. He quickly jumped off the bed and knelt in front of ning haolan, tears streaming down his face,””Young master! I’m sorry!”
“You know you’ve let me down, but you still did that?” Ning haolan said coldly, and the coldness in his eyes grew.
“Young master! I ... I have my own difficulties. ” Ning Wen’s face was ashen. He did not expect that he would be able to keep his life. He had thought that he would never see his young master again.
“You’ve been by my side for so many years, what difficulties can’t you tell me? You have to betray me?” Ning haolan was speechless.
When Ning Wen heard ning haolan’s words, he lowered his head deeply and did not dare to speak. He knew that his betrayal had hurt the young master. However, in his most desperate moment, the only thing he could think of was to apologize to the young master if he had the chance. Besides, he did not dare to ask for the young master’s forgiveness.
“Who asked you to go to the warehouse to retrieve the forgotten soul?” Ning haolan asked after a while.
“It’s fifth young lady!” Ning Wen said in a low voice and lowered his head even more.
“You actually dare to listen to her orders? ” Ning haolan squinted his eyes and said unhappily.
” Fifth young lady sent people to capture my entire family and threaten me. She wanted me to use the young master’s name to retrieve some forgotten souls for her. I had no choice but to listen to her. However, later on, I found out that my family had died an unnatural death and realized that fifth young lady wanted to silence me. So, I fled from main city. I didn’t expect that I would be found by fifth young lady’s people in the end. Fifth young lady’s people hit me off the cliff. I thought I was dead for sure, but I didn’t expect to survive. However, my injuries were too serious. The place where I was injured was very close to Biancheng, so I went there. I wanted to have a chance to come back to the main city to see the young master for the last time, but I almost died there.” Ning Wen spoke softly and cried as if he had been greatly wronged.
“Are you willing to testify against Ning Xi’ er? ” At this moment, Leng ruoxue finally spoke.
“I’m willing!” Ning Wen said without hesitation. Although he did not know who the woman who spoke was, a woman who could be with the young master was definitely not an ordinary woman. He still had a good eye for this.
“Other than retrieving Ning Xi ‘er’s soul, what else have you done for her?” Leng ruoxue asked with a smile.
“There’s nothing else! However, I know that she has bribed many people in the family. Moreover, the people she sent to kill me are very powerful!” Ning Wen replied honestly. Right now, he really wanted to atone for his crimes with his achievements. Hence, he would answer whatever Leng ruoxue asked, as long as it was within his thoughts.
After hearing Ning Wen’s words, Leng ruoxue muttered to herself for a moment before she said to ning haolan,””Young master ning! Let him have a good rest. Let’s go out!”
“En!” Ning haolan nodded and left the room with Leng ruoxue.
After returning to the main courtyard of LAN garden, ning haolan brought Leng ruoxue to the living room.
After they sat down, ning haolan couldn’t help but ask,”What are your plans?”
“You’re the one who should be asked that!” Leng ruoxue smiled.
“Ning Xi ‘er is my step-sister,” Ning haolan said after sighing.
“I know! Even if she was your biological sister, I would still take revenge for Shan ‘er, let alone your sister. ” Leng ruoxue said with a smile.
“We don’t have a good relations.h.i.+p, but uncle Pampers her a lot.” Ning haolan explained.
“If that’s the case, then there’s even less to worry about.” Leng ruoxue laughed coldly. Actually, she had wanted to make a move on Ning Xi ‘er after the ning family’s compet.i.tion was over. However, she did not expect to find Ning Wen. This way, things would be easier.
“Mm! I won’t let her off either!” Ning haolan said through gritted teeth. The incident back then had always been a thorn in his heart. If it had not been for Ning Xi ‘er’s mother, his parents would not have died! Although the main culprit was already dead, Ning Xi ‘er was still alive and stirring up trouble.
In the past, he had kept Ning Xi ‘er alive, not only because he was weak, but also because Ning Xi’ er was too good at acting. It was rare to find anything that could be used against her, so he had to make use of this good opportunity.
“When do you plan to make your move?” Leng ruoxue asked.
“If we can’t make a move in a day or two, then we can only wait for the clan compet.i.tion to end.” Ning haolan frowned and thought for a while.
“I still have a match with her! G.o.dfather said to let us compete after the family compet.i.tion. If you attack now, I’m afraid our compet.i.tion will be ruined. ” Leng ruoxue said with a smile.
“You want to compete with her?” Ning haolan raised an eyebrow.
“Of course not. I’m only a mid level deity. Even though she’s only a deity, she’s two levels higher than me!” Leng ruoxue said helplessly.
In reality, she really didn’t care whether they competed or not. She didn’t care about Ning Xi ‘er at all. The key thing was that she didn’t want to expose herself too early. Otherwise, she would’ve taken action the moment ning Duan betrayed Ning Xi’ er. It was precisely because she didn’t take Ning Xi ‘er seriously that she hadn’t made a move.
“If that’s the case, let’s go find the acting patriarch and the elders to discuss this matter!” Ning haolan was also afraid that a long delay would bring more trouble, so he wanted to cut the Gordian knot as soon as possible. Previously, he was afraid that ning Duan’s words alone would not be able to gain the trust of the acting Master and the elders, so he had not taken any action. Now, if he still could not convict Ning Xi ‘er with two witnesses, then he would be a failure as the young master.
“En!” Leng ruoxue nodded. Even though this did not go according to her plan, it did not matter much.
Both of them were people of action. After making their decision, they sent someone to invite the acting family head and the elders, while they went to the meeting hall to wait.
Not long after, Ning Yuan and the other elders arrived.
Seeing that ning haolan and Leng ruoxue were already seated in the meeting hall, Ning Yuan and the other elders did not say anything even though they had their doubts.
Seeing that they were silent, Leng ruoxue and ning haolan actually had a tacit understanding not to speak either. Instead, they sipped their tea in silence.
After a long time.
Ning Yuan finally could not sit still.
“Miss Leng, haolan, is there anything important that you’ve requested for a family meeting?” Ning Yuan couldn’t help but ask. The compet.i.tion between the families had been called off for the past two days. He had wanted to rest well, but who knew that Hao LAN would call for a meeting? if he was alone, he might have asked Hao LAN to postpone the meeting. However, with Leng ruoxue around, he couldn’t say that.
“Acting clan head! I’ve found Ning Wen!” Ning haolan said with a faint smile.
