Chapter 813: Chapter 273: Spirit Contract Treasure Refining Array
Seeing the young girl confess to him like this, Ning Zhuo’s eye twitched, and his first reaction was to turn around and leave!
Trouble.
Big trouble has come knocking.
Ning Zhuo observed carefully, noticing that although Qing Chi looked at him with a pleading, bitter expression, there was a hidden vigor in her brows. He resisted the urge to shut the door directly.
Ning Zhuo was very worried that this action would provoke her into a frenzy, pounding on the door, yelling, “Open the door, open the door, you have the nerve to be unfaithful, go be a male concubine, you have the nerve to open the door.” Such a scenario would be even more problematic.
At that time, it would be even more troublesome.
Ning Zhuo glanced around, quickly realizing that many people had noticed the situation here, and more obscure glances were cast in this direction.
Ning Zhuo decided to first stabilize the young girl in front of him.
He gently sighed and said to Qing Chi, “Qing Chi, stop this fuss.”
“Even if we can’t get along, we still have the bond of being from the same place.”
“I will explain it properly to you.”
Qing Chi immediately urged, “Then explain, speak, I’m listening.”
Ning Zhuo saw her emotions getting more excited, and immediately shook his head, “No, no, not now. It’s not the right time; there are many things I can’t say in public.”
“Okay.” Qing Chi immediately said, “Let’s talk inside!”
How could Ning Zhuo dare let her inside, continuing to block the door, “I’ll send you a Flying Message; discussing anything here is inappropriate, especially given it’s the Yang Enhancement Institute.”
“Perhaps, when we’re both free, we could set a time and place to discuss things clearly.”
Qing Chi widened her eyes and asked eagerly, “I’m free now; when are you free? Is tonight okay?”
Ning Zhuo sighed bitterly, “Unfortunately, I’ve reached a bottleneck in my cultivation and need to focus all my energy to break through. Qing Chi, you wouldn’t want to hinder my cultivation, right?”
Qing Chi nodded repeatedly, “Of course not. How do you want to break through? I can help you. Let’s talk inside!”
Ning Zhuo hurriedly waved his hand to politely refuse and strongly requested Qing Chi to leave first.
After several rounds of verbal exchanges, Qing Chi was obstructed and gazed at Ning Zhuo with frustration and latent resentment, “Little Ma, I can go. But before I leave, I want to hear you call me Qing Qing once more.”
Ning Zhuo felt his scalp prickling, glanced around, and had no choice but to transmit thoughts using Divine Sense, “Qing Qing.”
Only then was Qing Chi slightly satisfied, and she left with a lingering fondness, “Little Ma, it’s been a while since we’ve met, and it feels like talking to a stranger. I know you’ve been through a lot. I can leave, but don’t forget, send me a Flying Message, make sure to set a date!”
“Alright, alright.” Ning Zhuo used all his energy and finally managed to send her away.
He closed the door, exhaled a turbid breath, feeling quite exhausted.
Sun Lingtong, using Life Hanging Thread, watched a good show and teased in Ning Zhuo’s heart, “Little Zhuo, why not let her in to have a good chat?”
“Oh dear, you’re really hurting her feelings, it’s not good.”
Ning Zhuo retorted irritably, “I’m not truly Jiao Ma; I can’t deceive her emotions.”
“Besides, this matter isn’t that simple.”
Sun Lingtong was momentarily stunned and then understood Ning Zhuo’s meaning.
He immediately frowned, “Exactly! Her father Qing Yan doesn’t want you two continuing to associate and even gave you a considerable gift to sever ties.”
“The Jiao Family is still hoping you can climb up, get closer to the City Lord, naturally they wouldn’t tell Qing Chi your whereabouts.”
“Yet Qing Chi not only found the Yang Enhancement Institute but also didn’t inquire about anything, directly finding your residence. You know, you just moved to the Yang Enhancement Institute, right?”
“Someone might have told Qing Chi quietly with ulterior motives.”
“Someone is plotting against you, Little Zhuo!”
“Could it be an insider?”
Ning Zhuo shook his head, “Not sure.”
“Let me think about how to deal with this!”
He walked back and forth in the room, pondering for a moment, and then had an idea.
He immediately wrote a letter, not to Qing Chi, but to the Jiao Family patriarch and Qing Yan.
The content of the letter explained that Qing Chi had come calling, but it didn’t mention what they should do.
How to handle it, those two would naturally be clear.
Ning Zhuo looked at the two letters, thought for a moment, and then tore the one for Qing Yan.
Then, at the end of the letter to the Jiao Family patriarch, he added a paragraph, asking the patriarch to write to Qing Yan to explain the situation.
Shortly after sending the Flying Message, someone knocked on the door again.
Hearing the knocking now made Ning Zhuo’s heart skip a beat.
The Jiao Family patriarch and Qing Chi both taking the initiative to visit Ning Zhuo were both troublesome.
Who is it this time?
Ning Zhuo opened the door and saw an old acquaintance.
The visitor, burly with a beard, was Yang Weida, whom he had entered the city with.
Yang Weida upon seeing Ning Zhuo said, “Jiao Ma, you must be careful, your situation is very dangerous now!”
Ning Zhuo raised his eyebrows, “Why do you say that?”
Yang Weida’s gaze went past Ning Zhuo’s shoulder and looked inside the room, “Let’s talk inside.”
Why does everything have to be discussed inside?
However, since Yang Weida was neither the Jiao Family patriarch nor a lovesick girl, Ning Zhuo thought for a moment and let him inside.
Yang Weida said, “I happened to see Qing Chi coming to find you. You’re not muddled, for not letting her inside.”
“You must know, both you and I are male concubines serving the White Paper City Lord.”
“If you flirt around outside, having affairs with others, that’s a big taboo!”
Ning Zhuo nodded, “I have considered that point.”
Yang Weida said, “No, you haven’t considered enough. Did you think about being set up by someone?”
