Chapter 74
is not what you think.
Upon hearing the sound, Ning Qi and Yu Shui both looked towards Ning Rongrong, "Where is Shu'er? Where is Shu'er!"
Ning Rongrong pointed in Ning Shu's direction, "There."
"Shu'er!"
Seeing Ning Shu standing unharmed not far from them, Ning Qi and Yu Shui were stunned for a long while. Ning Qi's eyes were filled with tears as she urged Yu Shui, "Quick! Help me over there!"
"Shu'er, Shu'er."
Ning Qi walked towards Ning Shu, and Yu Shui, coming to her senses, immediately supported him, "Uncle Qi, slow down, please slow down!"
Seeing Ning Qi and Yu Shui walking towards her, Ning Shu left Xie Yue behind and told him to hold onto the corner of the wall first. "Grandpa Qi, Father."
She walked towards Ning Qi and Yu Shui, "Grandpa Qi, Father, what brings you here?"
"Shu'er, Shu'er, you're alright! That's so good!" Ning Qi excitedly grabbed Ning Shu's hand, looking her up and down, left and right, making sure she was unharmed before finally relaxing. "I was so worried about you! Do you know what they're saying in the sect? They're saying you're dead! They're saying you were attacked by several people and seriously injured! It scared me to death, you know that!"
But this still couldn't stop Ning Qi from blaming Ning Shu.
He's so old, how could he withstand such a shock?
Ning Shu didn't know why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was spreading rumors that she had died, but, "Seventh Grandfather, you believed them when they said I was dead?"
Ning Qi remained silent.
Ning Shu looked at Yu Shui, "Father, you believe it too?"
Yu Shui remained silent.
This is because Ning Shu left without saying a word. The people they sent to protect Ning Shu withdrew when she returned to the sect. They were not sure if Ning Shu was alright. In addition, Ning Li and Ning Shu had a complete falling out. Would Ning Li let Ning Shu off easily?
That is impossible.
That's why they both lost their composure.
In addition, Yu Shui heard that Ning Rongrong had left in a hurry, and Ning Qi heard that Yu Shui had left in a hurry.
That's how the misunderstanding arose.
"Oh, let's not talk about that, Shu'er, it's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright!"
Ning Qi and Yu Shui were both quite embarrassed; these words didn't sound good.
I'd better not say anything more.
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing then arrived at Ning Shu's place. Ning Rongrong noticed that Ning Shu's expression was a bit strange, while Zhu Zhuqing immediately asked with concern, "A-Shu, are you alright?"
Ning Shu: "Do I look like something's wrong to you?"
"."
Knowing that Ning Shu and Ning Rongrong didn't get along well, Yu Shui quickly changed the subject, saying, "Shu'er, where have you been? Why did you leave the sect without a word? You have no idea how worried I was about you!"
Not saying a word?
Ning Shu blinked. "Didn't I leave a note saying I was only going out for a little while and would be back soon?"
Note?
"What note?" Yu Shui was a little confused.
He didn't see any note.
Ning Shu said, "I put it on the table."
Yu Shui: "."
He didn't look at it.
He assumed it was because Ning Shu wasn't in the room.
Ning Qi glanced at Yu Shui's face, frowned, and scolded, "Yu Shui, what can I say to you? Shu'er left a note, and you didn't even read it before rushing out. When I saw you leave, I was naturally worried! Look at this, you've made a fool of yourself!"
Ning Qi quickly shifted the blame to Yu Shui, as he didn't want to leave Ning Shu with the impression that he wasn't smart.
Yu Shui nodded repeatedly, not wanting to argue any further. Seeing that Ning Shu was alright, he was relieved. "Alright, alright, it's all my fault, Seventh Uncle. When we get back, I'll definitely reflect on my actions!"
"Hmph, that's more like it!"
Ning Qi felt much better after shifting the blame.
Ning Rongrong watched them talk, unsure how to join in.
Zhu Zhuqing is the same.
Ning Shu didn't like the two of them, so they decided to keep quiet.
At this moment, Xie Yue, who was supporting herself in the corner, suddenly spoke up: "A-Shu."
Ah Shu?
Ning Qi and Yu Shui then noticed that there was a boy behind Ning Shu who was wrapped in bandages and looked injured.
"Shu'er, who is that?"
Yu Shui spoke first.
Ning Shu turned and glanced at Xie Yue. "Oh, this one, let me introduce her."
She turned around and helped Xie Yue over. "His name is Xie Yue. He's my friend. He saved me just now, that's why I wasn't hurt."
"Oh? A friend?" Ning Qi looked Xie Yue up and down. Seeing Ning Shu supporting Xie Yue and the two of them standing quite close together, he couldn't help but show a gossipy expression.
"Hello, Grandpa. Hello, Uncle."
Xie Yue bowed and nodded politely to Ning Qi and Yu Shui.
Ning Qi and Yu Shui were quite satisfied with his gentlemanly demeanor.
Ning Shu looked at the two of them, then at Xie Yue. How could these three possibly get along?
Her lips twitched slightly. "Grandpa, Father, his injuries haven't fully healed yet. I'll take him back to his ward first."
"Hey, Shu'er." Ning Qi immediately stopped Ning Shu, "This young man doesn't look well. It must be too stuffy in this hospital. He needs to go out for a walk and get some fresh air."
The meaning behind those words is already quite clear.
Ning Shu was about to refuse, but at this moment, Xie Yue spoke up, "Grandpa is right. I've been sleeping for quite a while and I feel a bit stuffy. I should go out for a walk and get some fresh air."
"."
Ning Shu remained silent.
Goodness, how come she never noticed before that Xie Yue was so outgoing?
"Haha!" Ning Qi laughed, stepped forward and patted Xie Yue on the shoulder, "Not bad, young man, let this old man accompany you for a walk!"
"No!" Ning Shu quickly stopped him. "Seventh Grandpa, your own health isn't very good. You want to accompany him for a walk? He has hands and feet; if he gets bored, he can go for a walk on his own. How can I let you accompany him and help him walk!"
"Go away, go away! My health isn't that bad!" Ning Qi pushed Ning Shu away, feigning impatience. "I'm going to take this young man for a walk!"
"."
Ning Shu was speechless. "Playing the rogue?"
"What do you mean by 'playing the rogue'!" Ning Qi frowned, his face serious. "Shu'er, how can you speak like that!"
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Xie Yue pulled her hand away from Ning Shu's support and said, "Ah Shu, I'm fine. You don't need to support me. Look, I'm really fine."
After saying that, he even took a few steps by himself.
He just wanted Ning Shu to stop arguing with Ning Qi, but this action was undoubtedly a slap in the face to himself for pretending to ask Ning Shu to help him earlier.
Ning Shu just stared at him, "."
Xie Yue: "."
Okay, your little scheme has been exposed.
Yu Shui shook her head. "Sigh."
Young people these days have absolutely no patience!
"Ah Shu, I'm not actually what you think."
Xie Yue wanted to explain, but Ning Qi didn't give him the chance. Instead, she stretched out her hand in front of Xie Yue, looked at Ning Shu, and said, "Alright, Shu'er, is it alright now? Let him accompany this old man for a walk, is that alright?"
