Ji Luofei was already in a brittle state of mind over her mother’s affairs, her heart was tumbling inside, at this moment she suddenly heard that this person was Ning Cheng, the closest relative she had always had in her heart, she was tantamount to being suddenly sneaked up on, that kind of anxious and unbearable mind finally reached a critical point, making her completely unable to accept it.
Seeing her daughter vomiting blood, Xiong Qihua was greatly alarmed, and at this point she already regretted saying these words. She and Zhu Hongwen had counted on everything, but not on Consort Luo’s reaction to hearing the news. In their opinion, when Fei Luo heard the news, she would be nothing but angry or furious, and would never have half an expectation of Ning Cheng from then on.
However, Xiong Qihua had not counted on his daughter’s immediate mouthful of blood and arrows upon hearing the news, and even her breath became disordered.
“Luo Fei, what’s wrong with you ……” Xiong Qihua hurriedly held his daughter who seemed to be about to fall down, his tone panicked beyond belief.
Ji Luofei did not reply to her mother’s words, she was dumbfounded for a long time before muttering, “I don’t believe it, Ning Cheng is definitely not such a person ……”
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe, you mustn’t hurt your roots.” Xiong Qihua was truly frightened, what if his daughter’s cultivation foundation was injured?
“Mother, you know that I know Ning Cheng?” Ji Luofei suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
Immediately, Xiong Qihua knew that she was worried about her daughter and had unintentionally made a great break in her speech, and then asked in a daze, “Who is Ning Cheng?”
“Ning Cheng is Ning Xiaocheng, he just pa*sed through Daan Forest, it’s me, it’s me ……,” Ji Luofei finally couldn’t bring herself to tell the story of Ning Cheng’s relationship with her.
Xiong Qihua felt guilty in her heart, she lowered her head and was silent, she didn’t know how she should explain to Luo Fei. In fact, deep down in her heart, that Ning Xiaocheng was still not bad, and was completely worthy of her daughter. But there was no turning back, it had already come to this point, and if she came back on her words, then it would be difficult to mend the traces between her and her own daughter again.
She could not let go of her daughter, nor could she let go of her man. The thought even came to her that she could tell Luo Fei about Zhu Hongwen. But then this thought was discarded; if she really dared to say so, she would never be able to identify with her daughter again.
Only if she said what she had just said would her daughter be able to ask Zhu Hongwen to be the nominal father of her unborn child.
Ji Luofei had slowly calmed down, there was a time for even the most heartbreaking things to settle down. Her mother bowed her head in silence, she thought that one of her mother was to be sorry for her father, and the other was to be sorry for herself. Ning Cheng and she knew each other, Mother should have heard it.
“Mother, let’s go.” Ji Luofei forced herself to suppress the pain deep inside her heart and said in a calm tone as she held Xiong Qihua up.
“Go? Where are we going? Where can I go like this?” Xiong Qihua felt more and more guilty in her heart, she felt that she had done wrong, she had either done something that she would always be sorry for her daughter.
Seeing the wandering gaze in her mother’s eyes, Ji Luofei was hurt in her heart, she believed that her mother would never lie to her. However, deep inside her heart, she was unable to feel any hatred towards Ning Cheng, a feeling she could not say clearly. Ning Cheng had only done that kind of thing under lust. He had done that kind of thing under poison, not to mention the fact that he had saved his mother’s life.
Ji Luofei did not hear what Xiong Qihua meant beyond her words, and did not take the initiative to ask that Hongwen butler to pretend to accompany Xiong Qihua, but only said to Xiong Qihua, “Mother, let’s find a distant city to live in seclusion, and then, then ……”
Ji Luofei really did not have the courage to let Xiong Qihua give birth to her own brother or sister.
Xiong Qihua sighed secretly in his heart, his daughter had not experienced personnel, some things could not yet understand. She could only wait to slowly guide her to bring up the matter of her child’s adoptive father. It was good that her daughter had finally agreed to leave the place with her. It would be best if she never saw that fellow called Ning Cheng again.
“Luo Fei, I have found you and have fulfilled a wish in my heart. I just want to abort the child and go into seclusion with you.” Xiong Qihua said with a sigh.
“Don’t ……” Ji Luofei’s first reaction was surprisingly strong opposition.
Xiong Qihua murmured, “But we are both mother and daughter, so even if we go anywhere, we will be ridiculed ……”
“Mother, we live our own, why should we be afraid of people’s ridicule? I ……” after Ji Luofei said this, she suddenly felt a strong sense of unease. She had a feeling that as soon as she left Ning Cheng, there would be no more destiny between her and Ning Cheng. But deep inside she refused to doubt her own mother, and at the same time she refused to doubt Ning Cheng herself.
Xiong Qihua’s expected words were not spoken by Ji Luofei, instead she felt her daughter’s uneasiness and unwillingness to leave.
……
After Ning Cheng entered Moze City exhausted, the first thing he did was to go to the resting inn where he was staying. He had gained a lot in these few days, not only had he obtained good things, his cultivation had also advanced to the perfection of the second level of Condensing Truth, he wanted to use the remaining few days to solidify his cultivation.
When Ning Cheng opened the room ban and entered inside, he found that Ji Luofei had also left.
Ning Cheng’s first thought was that Ji Luofei had gone in search of him, and he arrived at the compartment where Ji Luofei was in retreat in almost a few steps. Immediately afterwards, he saw a closed copy of the marriage certificate.
Without even picking it up to look at it, Ning Cheng knew that this marriage certificate belonged to both him and Ji Luofei, and apparently the copy of his was also kept by Ji Luofei in the first place. He had previously thought that his marriage certificate had been torched, but he had never thought that it had been on Ji Luofei’s person.
When Ning Cheng picked up this combined marriage book, he suddenly felt a little bitter. Why did all the girls he had been with say goodbye in such an inexplicable way? Ji Luofei had left the marriage certificate, clearly indicating that she had no more ties with him.
Ning Cheng grabbed the marriage certificate in his hand and an indescribable feeling of despondency rose up in his heart. From the bottom of his heart, he still cared for Ji Luofei very much.
Whether he could return to Earth in this life or not, Ji Luofei was still one of the important people in his life.
Ning Cheng took out a jade box from his storage pouch, and then took out a dark yellow stone from the box. This Qi gathering stone was the first Qi gathering stone he had obtained after arriving in the Yixing Continent. It was one that Ji Luofei had risked her life to fight for back from the Fighting Pot Arena. Ji Luofei herself hadn’t bothered to use it, in order to speed up his cultivation a little.
He had never used this Qi gathering stone and kept it with him. Today, when Ji Luofei placed the two halves of the complete marriage certificate with him, a sadness rose in Ning Cheng’s heart and he once again took out this Qi gathering stone that Ji Luofei had left him and was silent.
After what happened to Tian Muwan, Ning Cheng had never thought about matters between men and women, nor did he want to think about them. If he and Ji Luofei had not coincidentally been an unmarried couple by chance, he would not have had such contact with Ji Luofei all the same.
Now Ji Luofei was saying goodbye in the same way as Tian Muwan, without reason, without explanation, and without half a moment’s hesitation.
Holding the dark yellow Qi gathering stone in his hand, the scene that came to Ning Cheng’s mind was not the scene of Ji Luofei giving her the Qi gathering stone, nor was it the scene of Ji Luofei saving him from that dried up hand in the desert, but the scene of Ji Luofei carrying him on her back and slowly returning home.
At that moment he felt an unprecedented peace, not even the shock of suddenly arriving in a strange world.
It was the very moment when Tian Muwan had mercilessly left him, when he walked up to the elevated building alone and was struck by a yellow pillar of light. When he was at his most desolate and helpless, it was Ji Luofei who carried him on her back and then brought him back to that black stone house.
The ban at the entrance to the room suddenly opened again, and Ning Cheng awoke abruptly from his endless contemplation, and just as he looked up, he saw a familiar figure rushing over and jumping into his arms.
“Luo Fei ……” Ning Cheng hurriedly embraced Ji Luo Fei in his arms, his heart surprisingly filled with an indescribable joy. There was a time when even he himself thought that he and Ji Luofei were just friends, but when Ji Luofei left behind a marriage letter and left, he realized that he already had Ji Luofei’s shadow in his heart. Only after the loss did he realise how precious it was.
“Ning Cheng ……” Ji Luofei whimpered out, having long forgotten all about the matter between Ning Cheng and her mother at this time.
After she had followed her mother out of Moze City and met that butler Zhu Hongwen, that feeling of unease in her heart grew stronger. Deep inside her heart, there was a strong desire that even if she had to leave, she had to meet Ning Cheng and ask this matter clearly. Without hearing Ning Cheng’s words for herself, she could not settle down in her heart.
After she had come out of the desert with Ning Cheng, she had made a vow that she would trust Ning Cheng.
Once, she had already treated Ning Cheng as her only family, even her aunt Ji Yaohe could not compare to Ning Cheng. However, her mother had brought her facts that were hard for her to accept, making it impossible for her to be with Ning Cheng anymore.
After she walked out of Moze City, that feeling of wanting to see Ning Cheng grew stronger and stronger. Deep inside she suddenly favoured Ning Cheng, she did not want to leave Moze City, or rather, she did not want to leave Ning Cheng even further away.
Her aunt was also her family, and after her aunt had taken her away at the beginning, she had almost never been able to see Ning Cheng again. Her mother was closer than her aunt, but after she met her mother, there was always a feeling deep inside her heart that Ning Cheng was her closest relative.
……
“Mother, I must go see Ning Cheng again, I can’t live without him.” After walking out of Moze City, Ji Luofei finally could not suppress the longing and uncertainty within her heart, she had to see Ning Cheng again. She didn’t know when she had started, but she couldn’t bear to live without Ning Cheng.
After watching her daughter return to Moze City once again after just a word, Xiong Qihua rubbed her eyes and sighed secretly in her heart. She knew that she had lost this daughter.
“I’ll go and persuade her back?” Zhu Hongwen looked at Ji Luofei’s back as she turned and went away.
Xiong Qihua shook her head, “No need, I feel that Luo Fei has made the right choice, let’s go. I am not worthy of being her mother, I ……”
Xiong Qihua silently turned around and slowly walked away with her back to Mo Ze Cheng, her body sluggish and despondent.
