Chapter 14 Damn Ning Fengzhi, I finally managed to coax him!
"Okay... Brother Jiuyou!"
Li Jiuyou nodded, feeling much more comfortable now.
This martial spirit is Suona's child, and Li Jiuyou has no other purpose in knowing him.
It's simply so that I can look cool when I appear in public later.
Anyone who has watched Bad Guys has probably imagined the mother-in-law breaking the formation song playing next to them before making her appearance.
Li Jiuyou took the opportunity to open the system panel, which displayed his current role-playing progress.
[Performance Ratio: 9%]
The time I spent studying pharmacology and practicing diligently has actually been somewhat useful.
The thought of leading a group of people into battle, with the sound of suona horns playing a battle-breaking melody, filled Li Jiuyou with a rare excitement.
No man can resist the visual impact of that image; just thinking about it is exciting.
Although Li Jiuyou couldn't remember the relevant sheet music clearly, he had a general impression of it. People with musical instrument martial souls are naturally very talented in this kind of thing. Just give him a general idea of the rhythm and let him figure it out on his own. In a few months... at most a few years, he will definitely be able to figure it out.
"Let's just keep our acquaintance for now. You focus on your cultivation, and I'll come find you later."
Fan Hai nodded.
He thought the same as the other three, believing that Li Jiuyou was from the Heavenly Dou Empire and therefore could not be seen often.
However, he had already developed a great fondness for Li Jiuyou.
"Alright, you're not fit to continue like this, so go back and rest."
Li Jiuyou patted Fan Hai on the shoulder and then walked into the room.
For at least a long time, he will not be able to control his own actions; he will need a certain level of strength or just the right amount of luck.
During this time, let Fan Hai figure out his martial spirit on his own.
As soon as Li Jiuyou entered the banquet hall, he saw Ning Fengzhi talking to him in the hall.
He saw Ning Fengzhi, and Ning Fengzhi saw him too, and they exchanged a wink.
It means that Li Jiuyou should wait for him outside.
Although he didn't know why, Li Jiuyou still turned around and left.
Not long after, he saw Ning Fengzhi emerge.
His expression was somewhat regretful, as if something had happened. He said to Li Jiuyou, "Jiuyou... Rongrong ran away in anger. I'm afraid we'll need your help..."
Ning Fengzhi had already accepted that he wasn't as good at coaxing his daughter as Li Jiuyou.
He also came up with the excuse that he couldn't be too gentle because he needed to maintain his authority as a father.
Li Jiuyou was completely bewildered. He had only been gone for less than ten minutes. What had happened?
"I was talking to Xue Qinghe with her just now, and I said some things she didn't like, so she ran away. Uncle Jian and Uncle Gu chased after her, but it's not convenient for me to go over now."
Ning Fengzhi was also surprised. They usually joked around to liven up the atmosphere and get closer during these kinds of conversations. It was their usual way of doing things, and he didn't expect Ning Rongrong to be so unacceptable.
She usually understands this situation, after all, it's her daughter whom she raised.
Li Jiuyou opened his mouth, his expression changing.
This was the first time he hadn't continued to pretend and instead showed a displeased expression.
Li Jiuyou didn't say it aloud, but he was constantly complaining in his heart.
Damn you, Ning Fengzhi! You hurt your daughter this morning and I was the one who had to comfort her. Now you want me to go again?
Who's the father anyway?!
I finally managed to appease them, and then you just turned around and reset them to factory settings!
"Uncle Ning, what...did you say?"
Although unwilling, Li Jiuyou really couldn't ignore it.
He still needs this family's protection to grow up, so for now we can only try to understand the situation first.
Ning Fengzhi scratched his head, his gaze drifting, and said, "I was just joking with Qinghe. I said I originally planned to have him and Rongrong get engaged..."
Li Jiuyou: "..."
Although he also couldn't understand why Ning Rongrong would run away from such a joke.
Xue Qinghe is not bad either, is he?
He's not bad looking, and judging from the current perspective, he'll most likely become the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire in the future. Oscar hasn't appeared yet. It's not like the young lady only likes helping the poor and doesn't like those with lower status than herself.
But we can't just ignore it; we should think of something to do.
Seeing Li Jiuyou nod, Ning Fengzhi finally felt relieved.
"I still need to host Qinghe, so I'll have to trouble you. If possible, could you buy her some gifts?"
Ning Fengzhi took out a purple card and handed it to Li Jiuyou, without saying how much money was inside, but it was definitely not a small amount.
Li Jiuyou took the card and walked outside.
He knew that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had a shopping area for its disciples, which was a small hill full of shops with many nice little trinkets.
Li Jiuyou randomly picked a luxury goods store, browsed around, and chose two 1.5-meter-tall polar bear plush toys and a wind chime bracelet before heading back.
It cost a total of three thousand gold soul coins, which just goes to show that luxury stores can be opened just as easily in another world.
The cost is unknown, but since Ning Fengzhi paid for it, Li Jiuyou didn't mind.
As night deepened, fine snowflakes began to fall.
Li Jiuyou skillfully pushed open the gate to his courtyard and saw Chen Xin and Ning Rongrong in the pavilion.
Just as he expected, they came to him.
"Grandpa Jian, Miss Rongrong."
He called out softly, and Chen Xin stood up with a sigh of relief.
He walked to Li Jiuyou's side and whispered, "I sent Old Bones to stay with Feng Zhi. Now that you're here, I can leave too."
"Go? Where to?"
"It's pretty much agreed that Fengzhi was joking. He said that at that time to get closer to Xue Qinghe and show that he thought highly of him even if Xue Qinghe didn't come looking for him. Now Rongrong knows that Fengzhi was just expressing an attitude."
Li Jiuyou nodded. He knew that although Ning Rongrong had a somewhat willful nature, she hadn't shown any signs of it thanks to his intervention. Now that he knew the truth, it shouldn't be a big deal.
But Chenxin wanted to leave as soon as he saw him arrive. What did that mean?
"Rongrong said she wanted to talk to you alone for a while, so I went to find Fengzhi and told him about the current situation."
After finishing speaking, Chen Xin left without lingering.
Li Jiuyou watched him leave, then walked into the pavilion and sat down.
"Miss Rongrong, Uncle Ning's words were just to send a signal of good cooperation to the Heaven Dou Empire, and should not be taken seriously."
"I know what Dad means, he just really hates him."
Li Jiuyou paused for a moment, a rare occurrence, and began to think about what to say.
"Why don't you go back to sleep first? I bought you a gift, so you can take it home and keep it... Tomorrow, I'll go to Uncle Ning and tell him that you've been working hard during your cultivation, and ask him to grant you a few days off to go out and have fun with me."
