I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"What's the deal with Jiang Chaoning that you brought back?"

"Don't try to fool me. I can see it. Although she doesn't have the slightest aura of a martial artist, her every move is free and graceful, clearly indicating that she is quite skilled!"

"That feeling is just like you back then, so she's practicing the same path as you, right?"

Su Wenxi's insightful observation surprised Qin Ge greatly; she was just too meticulous and intelligent!

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Qin Ge chuckled. "I taught you and Xiaomeng before, but you couldn't master it, so there's nothing I can do."

"I wouldn't say I'm unhappy. I'm already very satisfied with my achievements in martial arts. I know it's all thanks to you." Su Wenxi smiled slightly. "But I am envious, and even more so, I'm curious."

"At the same time, I'm a little worried. Do you really trust Jiang Chaoning that much?"

"I didn't mean to stir up trouble, but it's always good to be cautious. She cultivates the same path as you, so does that mean she might become as strong as you someday?"

"If that's the case, it means she's already out of your control!"

"And Jinghong, Xiaomeng, and others, are you as strong as me now?"

"Jiang Chaoning can only cultivate with me. She doesn't have any cultivation techniques to cultivate with others, so it won't be effective. She can cultivate on her own, but her progress is so slow that it's almost negligible."

"In other words, I'm getting stronger as she progresses. Besides, I can cultivate with people other than her, and I even started earlier than her, so my cultivation level is now far superior to hers!"

"Therefore, she can never be better than me, not even on par with me!"

"It's possible for me to ride alongside you, even if it means galloping on horseback."

Su Wenxi: "..."

That scoundrel is as cunning as ever; my worries were completely unnecessary.

"I'm going to take control of the pace!" Su Wenxi strode over with one long leg. "You just got back and you're already busy with this and that, without even telling Jinghong. If she finds out tomorrow, you're in for it!"

"Ugh~~~"

Qin Ge supported Su Wenxi's slender waist, "You can't even protect yourself now, and you still have the mind to think about Jinghong?"

"Why don't you and Jinghong help me resolve Zhang Luoxin's matter? I really don't know what the appropriate course of action is."

"As girls yourselves, you probably understand each other's thoughts better, and you might be able to persuade her."

"Otherwise, if she acts like that again next time, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist slapping her to death!"

"I don't think this is as complicated as you think. She's pretty, so why don't you just take her and you can have her as you please? Ah~~~" As Su Wenxi's body sank down, her head involuntarily tilted back.

revel.

Qin Ge looked disgusted. "If I eat so well, would I take someone else's leftovers?"

"Never mind, I'll sound out Uncle Shun when I get back, and see how Zhang Luoxin's parents are psychologically prepared."

"If that doesn't work, have them come to Donghai again. I'll arrange a meeting and let them talk it out themselves!"

"Let's put that aside for now. Are you getting a bit of that feeling from that night in Nanshan Village?"

Su Wenxi wrapped her arms around Qin Ge's neck, "Almost there... Ah~~!"

......

"Little Melon is back!"

When Qin Shun and his wife saw Qin Ge and Su Wenxi return, they ran to greet them.

"Little melon, look at you. You came all the way back from Beidu and didn't even get a proper rest at home before starting to work on our affairs. You're only coming back so late."

Qin Shun looked apologetic. "Actually, as long as we confirm that Luo Xin is not in any personal safety issues, there's no need to rush this."

"Uncle Shun, you're being too formal with me. Let's sit down and talk!" Qin Ge had been thinking about it all the way here and decided to tell the truth. "Uncle Shun, I already tried to persuade Zhang Luoxin today."

"I'm sorry, I probably can't handle this."

"She was indeed tricked, but she did it willingly, and she knew exactly what she wanted before she did it."

"You want her to see the error of her ways, but for her, it's not a mistake!"

"But you can rest assured, even if we can't persuade her in the end, as long as she is still in Donghai, I can guarantee her safety. That's all I can do."

He recounted his meeting with Zhang Luoxin in a rather tactful way, hesitating quite a bit, but still not revealing all of Li Yan's part-time job schemes.

Qin Shun and Zhang Sufeng both lowered their heads, and Qin Ge's parents also sighed inwardly.

Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Qin Ge spoke again, "Uncle Shun, Auntie, don't be too discouraged. Perhaps I misjudged the situation!"

"I'll go see Zhang Luoxin again tomorrow and let her know that she's been tricked. Who knows, maybe she'll come to her senses!"

He always felt the chances were slim, but you never know until you try.

The reason I told Qin Shun and the others that was to prepare them mentally, and also to prepare Zhang Luoxin's parents mentally for the worst possible outcome.

"Xiao Gua, thank you so much!" Zhang Sufen was also having a headache, wondering how to explain Zhang Luoxin's situation to her brother and sister-in-law.

"My brother and sister-in-law called this afternoon. They said they couldn't trouble you too much."

"They also said that if you can find Luo Xin, could you find a way to let them meet Luo Xin directly? They're their own daughter, so they can persuade her themselves."

"If possible, I'll call them now, and they can set off for Donghai first thing tomorrow morning."

"To tell you the truth, my brother and the others have made up their minds this time. If Luo Xin continues to be so headstrong and refuses to listen to any advice, then they might as well just pretend they don't have a daughter!"

"Auntie, it doesn't have to come to the point of severing ties, does it?" Qin Ge thought to herself with a sigh. Her parents' generation didn't have much education or money, but their values ​​were so righteous that it was almost unbelievable. It made her feel ashamed.

Maybe it's because of his upright character that he's so poor. Look at people like Li Yan and Duan Tianxing. If they weren't born into wealthy families or had incredible luck, how easy would it be for an honest person to make money!

He felt a greater sense of goodwill towards the Zhang Junfeng couple, whom he had never met before, and secretly decided that even if he couldn't persuade Zhang Luoxin to turn back, he would do his best to help the couple.

The next day, Shen Tingzhi arrived early.

After chatting for a long time, the two got up and went out. Qin Ge also invited Qin Shun and Zhang Sufeng to come along.

Qin Ge's parents and Yang Xiaomeng, unaware of Qin Ge's intentions, were curious and joined in the fun.

Before long, the group arrived at the neighboring Bay No. 9 Villa.

The door opened, and Shen Tingzhi exchanged a few words with a man who appeared. He then invited Qin Ge and the others to come inside for a tour.
