Bound to Mary Sue, I am against involution in the world of immortal cultivation
Chapter 48 "Rumors"
Gu Yuanzhou looked at her suspiciously. Although he felt that this question was a bit suspicious, the situation was stronger than him, so he still thought about it carefully.
"Miss Jiang didn't say anything. She was even hesitant to mention her previous designs. I guess there's a lot of truth to the rumors."
Fan Ning: "Are you talking about rumors?"
Gu Yuanzhou glanced at her and said, "It's about that incident three years ago. I heard that Miss Jiang lost her best friend in a secret place. When she came out, she was so distraught that she didn't care about anything anymore."
"She's like a completely different person. Although she's still active occasionally, it seems to me that she's suffered a huge blow and is even planning to sell off her work at a low price."
"He even gave up on the sister he'd been looking for... I heard he had a big fight with the Jiang family, and the rumors weren't very good."
"These rumors you've heard are really plausible," Fan Ning asked directly before the other party could continue speaking. "After a big fight... When did you leave the Jiang family?"
"It was before the secret realm, right? Rumors were circulating back then," Gu Yuanzhou thought carefully again, and after confirming his accuracy, he added, "She was in very poor condition after returning from the secret realm. Some people suspected that the Jiang family had played a role."
"Going back for revenge because someone has done something to you? That does sound reasonable," Fan Ning released the hands that were restraining him, and feeling the other party's hesitant gaze, he pretended not to notice.
"I always feel like something is not right..."
"That's all I know," Gu Yuanzhou said as he stood up from the ground, his expression finally regaining its composure. "Now, it's your turn to tell me."
"Why are you in front of A Zheng? What do you want to get from her by doing this?"
"Huh?" Fan Ning acted surprised. He took a bright night-shining pearl from the side and held it higher, not shining it on anything, letting the light pass over the furnishings. "When did I ever say I would answer your questions?"
She held the night pearl in front of Gu Yuanzhou, giving the impression that she was watching the interrogation, or like a fraudulent witch in the folk.
"If the answer you want is really that important...how could it come out of my mouth?"
Fan Ning supported the night-shining pearl with one hand and rested his chin with the other, looking completely like someone who was enjoying the show and not minding any trouble. "Well... am I still your love rival?"
Gu Yuanzhou's eyes turned red with anger again, "You——"
"Don't point at me like that," Fan Ning pried his fingertips back with one hand, and seeing the other person's expression seeming to be irritated again, she stood up and pushed his shoulders in one go.
"I'm not responsible for young people's worries. If you really can't get over it..."
"Just find a few sour fruits and take a few bites," Fan Ning laughed. "It's better to let the tears come out of your mouth than to cry all over yourself."
Gu Yuanzhou: "Did you do this on purpose?"
Deliberately irritating him and deliberately taking away the people he cared about just for fun?
"Didn't I tell you?" Fan Ning glanced at him, "I hate people like you the most. You always remind me of a certain annoying face."
After he finished speaking, Fan Ning stood outside the door and closed the heavy door.
During the entire process, the system didn't dare to utter a single sound, especially when it spoke the last sentence, it couldn't help but tremble.
[Host, is the person you are talking about very important to you? ]
Fan Ning waved her hand: [Important? It's really annoying to be associated with him.]
【After all, he is the nominal father, right? 】
The system dared not speak anymore, and tried to change the subject: [So, host, where are you going now? ]
"Let's go meet the real boss." Fan Ning didn't care about his little thoughts. He walked in the light from the building and greeted the beauties who saw him. When he reached a secluded place, he muttered to himself, "Calculating the time, Ling You should have caught the invading thief by now, right?"
"…There's still one piece of the puzzle."
System: [I feel like someone else is about to suffer misfortune.]
"Is there?" Fan Ning walked briskly and returned to the original house. When he raised his eyes, he saw the lights on.
"Who?" Ling You's stiff voice came from inside.
When Fan Ning pushed the door open, he saw Ling You holding down a thin woman with a clamp, his hand on the gauze covering her face.
"You came?"
Seeing that the person coming was Fan Ning, Ling You breathed a sigh of relief subtly, and pulled off the heavy veil with his hand.
——A strange face with no memory at all.
Fan Ning raised an eyebrow, thinking of something, and touched the palm of her left hand with her right hand. "Looks like it's Jiang Biehe's turn. Judging by the time, she should be here soon."
"Are you suspecting she's taken some kind of drug?" Ling You frowned, then grabbed the man's face again. After confirming there was no change, he threw him to the ground. "Do you know who she is?"
"Miss Jiang? Maybe." Fan Ning lowered her head and looked at the face of the prisoner, who was pressed to the ground and biting his lower lip tightly, and smiled slightly, "Give me some room for speculation."
She leaned over and held the man's mouth shut, revealing a tender smile once again. "Anyway, no matter who it is, they can't escape today."
Ling You snorted, his tone resentful, "Why don't you just do this when you've already chosen someone? It's always like this..."
"Wouldn't it be better to catch him earlier?"
"Will you fail?" Fan Ning blinked, pressed her fingertips against those soft lips, and propped up her jaw as if she was having fun. "Should I thank you for trusting my guess so much?"
"If not, wouldn't I be embarrassed? That's not okay."
Fan Ning glanced at the captive, then continued with a smile: "Why not kill him and silence him——"
"Stop!" Ling You finally couldn't stand her bad taste any longer. He looked up at the slightly shaking door and warned, "Jiang Biehe is here."
"...She doesn't seem to be here alone?"
Fan Ning turned his head and looked outside.
Jiang Biehe came in slowly, greeted her first, then pulled his hand and dragged a person out.
It is not an exaggeration. Ling You widened his eyes slightly and silently counted the number of people who were hit.
"One, two, three... nine."
Some were foaming at the mouth, some had their eyes closed peacefully, some had white eyes... nine people had several symptoms.
"They're not dead," Jiang Biehe nodded slightly, loosened his grip, and threw the person to the door, leaving them to fend for themselves. "The sleeping pills weren't enough, so I tried some other drugs."
"Nine people, five are Jindan, two are in the early stage of Yuanying, and the other two... seem to be demonic cultivators."
Fan Ning walked accurately to the side of the demon cultivator, waved his hand to let Jiang Biehe take care of the people in the room, and then went closer to observe.
Ling You also came over. He was still a little hesitant and frowned, wondering where he had seen these two faces before.
Finally, he looked at Fan Ning apologetically, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "This one should be for me."
