Chapter 1159 453: Lord Ruyu (Part 3)
Su Mo’s eyes showed a hint of confusion:
“I wonder what this is all about?”
“It’s a long story…”
Qi Shengxuan didn’t find any revelation in Su Mo’s eyes, seeming quite regretful. After a brief moment of excitement, he softly spoke:
“My father has three children.
“Their personalities are poles apart…
“My older brother was lively from a young age, while I have a naturally sullen disposition.
“Although my sister seems like a rule-abiding young lady, in fact, she was extremely curious about the outside world from a young age, often making surprising moves that shocked and scared my brother and me.”
Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun, seeing this, couldn’t help but perk up their ears and listen carefully.
Hua Qianyu’s gossip, once missed, might not come around again.
“Among the three of us, if talking about who had the highest martial arts skill back in the day, it was my sister.
“Since childhood, I’ve often been beaten up by her.
“So much so that I constantly avoided her, afraid she would slightly get upset and find an excuse to give me a severe beating.
“Especially after my brother left to pursue learning, I lived in constant fear.
“Afraid that this sister, whose hands are neither light nor heavy, might accidentally kill me one day.”
At this point, Qi Shengxuan’s face didn’t show any fear.
Instead, he wore a faint smile.
His eyes were full of nostalgia, just as he was about to speak again, noises suddenly came from the courtyard.
Qi Shengxuan’s expression slightly froze, peeking out in surprise, then looked at Su Mo:
“What is this?”
Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun heard the commotion, knowing that Shangguan Jingjing had come out.
Ximen Huai waited bitterly until now, but as Wei Ziyi said, achieving forgiveness seems unlikely.
Just thinking about it, the sound of fighting suddenly came from outside.
The three of them couldn’t continue sitting and chatting idly, so they stood up and went out to investigate.
In the courtyard, it was Ximen Huai and Shangguan Jingjing who were in a scuffle.
It’s said, the deeper the love, the harsher the blame.
Shangguan Jingjing is deeply devoted to Ximen Huai, so she’s reckless.
However, yesterday Ximen Huai, indiscriminately, broke her heart completely.
Now that Ximen Huai came to apologize, she was unwilling to accept, and the more Ximen Huai pestered, the more troubled she became.
Originally not intending to see him, but he was unwilling to leave.
With no choice, she opened the door.
No matter how Ximen Huai apologized, how he begged, Shangguan Jingjing’s mind was full of yesterday’s scene of Ximen Huai storming out the door, along with those cold words of ‘perfect satisfaction’.
Seeing him now, she only felt irritable, not wanting to entangle with him, wanting him to leave quickly.
How could Ximen Huai agree?
Only thinking that if he left this time, there would truly be no hope left.
In his agitated state, he wanted to take Shangguan Jingjing into his arms.
How could Shangguan Jingjing agree?
In anger, she acted.
The grievance and anger in her heart burst forth simultaneously, delivering a furious assault towards Ximen Huai.
Ximen Huai kept retreating, still wanting to apologize to Shangguan Jingjing, yet she couldn’t listen at all now.
Within moments, fists and feet flew, driving Ximen Huai back repeatedly.
“Jingjing, listen to me.”
Ximen Huai said while retreating.
“At this point, what’s left to say?”
Shangguan Jingjing lashed out in anger: “I am wholeheartedly devoted to you, yet you suspect an affair with Brother Su.
“You… you treat me like a mere weed, when have you ever regarded me?
“Now, why act this way?”
The two of them fought while arguing, their words becoming increasingly harsh.
Wei Ziyi, Zhen Xiaoxiao, Cheng Suying, Duan Renjie and others stood nearby but couldn’t intervene.
At once, they could only look at each other.
But Qi Nian focused his gaze on Wei Ziyi, scrutinizing her thoroughly.
Qi Shengxuan was baffled, having returned this morning after speaking with Qi Dingtian, and hurriedly came here.
About Ximen Huai and Shangguan Jingjing’s matter, he knew nothing.
Su Mo had to briefly explain the situation between the two to Qi Shengxuan.
Qi Shengxuan’s expression turned a bit peculiar after listening.
Su Mo glanced up, noticing his face showing a trace of envy?
Envy of what?
Just pondering, a muffled grunt was heard as Shangguan Jingjing broke Ximen Huai’s defense, scratching his chest and leaving three blood marks.
As the saying goes, prolonged defense leads to vulnerability; their martial arts skill was neck and neck.
Ximen Huai continually giving way, how could he not be defeated over time?
Now stumbling backwards, his face full of shock and disbelief:
“Jingjing… you, you really want to kill me?”
“I…”
Shangguan Jingjing lowered her head looking at the blood on her fingertips, feeling endless regret.
Though she held back in her actions, ultimately, driven by anger, coupled with unforeseen circumstances, left her heart confused.
She wanted to check Ximen Huai’s injuries, but then recalled his cold indifference towards her.
Really unwilling to forgive easily, she was momentarily stunned on the spot.
Ximen Huai’s face was full of sadness as he forcibly climbed up from the ground, glanced dully at Shangguan Jingjing, then sighed deeply:
“Jingjing, since you hate me so much…
“Then… then I’ll leave.
“You should take care in the future.
“I, I…”
At this point, the words choked, turning around, clutching his chest, staggered away.
Seeing his dejected figure, Shangguan Jingjing’s heart was filled with bitterness, wanting to speak, but silent.
Until Ximen Huai walked out the door and disappeared, only then did she stagger and fall to the ground.
Yang Xiaoyun, Wei Ziyi, and others seeing this, quickly approached Shangguan Jingjing, offering gentle comfort.
Su Mo felt a toothache.
What’s all this?
Wondering if Ximen Huai after this, might truly turn white-haired overnight, and in Jianghu, earn the title of White-haired Devil?
While indulging in wild thoughts, Qi Shengxuan had already clasped his fists and said:
“Brother Su, I suddenly remembered I have some matters to attend to.
“I’ll come find you later for a chat, for now goodbye.”
After finishing, without waiting for Su Mo’s response, he hurriedly left…
Why say he hurriedly left is because, he didn’t even take his daughter.
Standing in the corner watching the commotion, Qi Nian blinked her large eyes, face dull.
What’s she gonna do?
