Chapter 57: The fiancée begs to get back together? The villain and his junior sister declare their love on the spot

“Yes, we understand.”

Wang Teng and the others immediately grasped his intent, stowed the Golden Vajra Scripture in their spatial rings, and slipped into the street to spread their great love.

“A Child of Destiny who sold out his own mother for glory… how amusing!”

Ning Bei raised the corner of his mouth in a cold smile; the next moment he strode out of the room like a spring breeze, quietly waiting for the coming storm.

At that moment.

Qin Jiujiu happened to step out of her room, met Ning Bei, and asked, “I was cultivating inside just now… did you come looking for me?”

Ning Bei nodded with a smile and sized up the lovely girl, “You broke through?”

“Mhm~”

Qin Jiujiu admitted frankly.

Her delicate, fair face showed a tender, sweet smile to Ning Bei, “You didn’t expect me to advance so quickly, did it scare you?”

Such breakthrough speed was truly bizarre.

Ning Bei could not deny it and took the chance to tease, “It did scare me; I even wondered… Jiujiu, are you using me as a furnace?”

“Huh?”

At the word “furnace,” Qin Jiujiu’s face instantly flushed.

“Ay, how can you be so bad… are you bullying me on purpose?” Qin Jiujiu bit her lip and pouted shyly.

“If you’re treating me as a furnace, who’s bullying whom?”

“I… I’m not.”

Facing Ning Bei’s meaningful smile, Qin Jiujiu blushed even more, “I just happened to be in the right state and broke the bottleneck early… hmph, you’re definitely bullying me.”

“Haha.”

Watching the girl turn crimson under his teasing, Ning Bei laughed without mercy.

He wrapped an arm around Qin Jiujiu’s waist, touched her rosy cheek with a finger, and laughed louder when he felt the burning warmth.

“Bad guy~”

Qin Jiujiu’s heart pounded wildly.

She was no fool; she understood Ning Bei’s intent, and while she scolded him verbally, she still lifted her cherry lips.

“Ahem!”

Right then a deliberately loud cough came from the side… it was Lin Yueyao.

Seeing her, Qin Jiujiu quickly slipped out of Ning Bei’s arms, not out of guilt but to avoid being caught in such an embarrassing scene.

Mwah~

Yet as if he had not seen Lin Yueyao, Ning Bei still planted a peck on Qin Jiujiu’s lips.

“Um… I’ll wait for you in the room.”

Overwhelmed by shame, Qin Jiujiu’s mind went blank and she fled with a red face.

“?”

By contrast, Lin Yueyao looked as if she had been struck by lightning.

She had never expected Ning Bei and Qin Jiujiu to have progressed… all the way to kissing.

That was way too fast.

She had been with Ning Bei for so many years… and had never kissed him once.

“Ning Bei, what were you doing just now?”

With mixed feelings, Lin Yueyao walked over.

She wanted an explanation… even a fabricated lie would do.

That would at least make her feel better.

Unfortunately, Ning Bei refused to oblige, “Are you blind?”

“I…”

Lin Yueyao felt a sudden pain in her heart.

The man who had once been filled with love for her was now kissing another woman in front of her, without even a single excuse…

The intense contrast brought tears to her eyes at once, “How could you kiss her? How could you?”

“Crazy woman, she’s my wife.” Ning Bei raised a brow.

After speaking, he turned, intending to enter the room, unwilling to waste even a second on her.

“Ning Bei.”

Lin Yueyao suddenly rushed up and grabbed him, aggrieved, “Let’s make up, okay? I can overlook you kissing her… my parents also want us to reconcile quickly, they even beat Qin Yu today… as long as you agree to get back together, I will let bygones be bygones.”

“Let go.”

“You…”

Facing Ning Bei’s indifference, Lin Yueyao felt even more wronged, “What must I do for you to forgive my past immaturity?”

“Heh~”

At that moment Ning Bei actually laughed in anger.

Staring at the pitiful white-eyed wolf before him, he even doubted his ears, “Lin Yueyao, are you out of your mind? You dumped me for Qin Yu and I didn’t object; now that Qin Yu’s meridians are broken you ignore him and come crawling back to me?”

“Wasn’t Qin Yu your white moonlight? What, did your white moonlight change again?”

“I…”

Lin Yueyao was left utterly speechless.

Her nose tingled and she almost cried, “Ning Bei, I promise I will never speak to Qin Yu again, okay?”

As she spoke, she tried to throw herself into Ning Bei’s arms.

All these years they had never shared any intimacy, yet now she was willing to take the initiative.

However, before she could touch him, Ning Bei flung her several meters away, “You chose that white moonlight; now you regret it and want a reconciliation? I’m telling you, never in this lifetime!”

With that, Ning Bei walked straight into the room and locked the door.

“Ning Bei…”

Ignoring the pain, Lin Yueyao rushed up, wanting to say more.

Yet no matter how she pounded on the door, no one inside would answer her.

At that moment Lin Yueyao felt as if the whole world had abandoned her.

The man who had once regarded her as life itself seemed gone forever.

The thought made her burst into tears.

“Wuu… wuu…”

Inside the room.

Hearing the sobs outside, Qin Jiujiu looked at the expressionless Ning Bei, “To be honest, I ought to thank her.”

“Thank her?”

“Yes.” Qin Jiujiu walked over and smiled gently, “If she hadn’t been stupid enough to lose you, you probably wouldn’t have considered me, right?”

“Ha.”

Ning Bei shook his head with a smile.

Qin Jiujiu was right; with Ning Bei’s former nature, if Lin Yueyao had not canceled the engagement, no matter how outstanding other beauties were… the old Ning Bei would not have spared them a second glance.

But now, Ning Bei felt nothing for Lin Yueyao except dislike… pure dislike.

If he didn’t need this heroine to keep the Child of Destiny inside Heavenly Martial Academy so he could maintain control… his attitude toward Lin Yueyao would have been far more ruthless than it was now.

Elsewhere.

No one knew how long had passed before Qin Yu woke up.

He came to in a foul-smelling alley full of stagnant water and instinctively reached for the Golden Vajra Scripture… only to discover that… the Golden Vajra Scripture was gone!

“No!!”

In that instant Qin Yu felt the sky collapse.

That was the trump card his godfather had given him to repair his meridians and stage a comeback, and it had been stolen before it even warmed in his hands.

“How am I supposed to explain this to Father?”

Despair filled Qin Yu’s heart.

He had even promised his godfather he would keep the Golden Vajra Scripture safe, yet now it was gone; if someone cultivated it… they might even develop a method specifically to counter the Golden Vajra Scripture.

Then even if he mastered it himself, he would have no hope of rising again, and what was even more hopeless… his godfather might fall from the lofty rank of Prince into mediocrity.

After all, Kui An owed his reputation as Great Yu’s strongest physique entirely to the Golden Vajra Scripture; losing it cut off Kui An’s trump card.

How could he face his godfather and his mother?

Feeling as if he had poked a hole in the sky, Qin Yu raised his head and shouted, “My Golden Vajra Scripture… Golden Vajra Scripture, where are you?!”

“Seeing you cry like this, I’ll give it to you.”

A voice rang out.

“Hm?”

Qin Yu looked up to find an old beggar standing there.

When he saw what the beggar handed him, his blurred pupils shrank sharply, “The Golden Vajra Scripture? This is my Golden Vajra Scripture?”

“Hahaha… so it wasn’t lost!”

Qin Yu immediately threw his head back and laughed.

Still, he felt something odd… the paper, the handwriting, and other details all seemed different.

Had he been too groggy to notice?

After leafing through the Golden Vajra Scripture and confirming it was genuine, he assumed he had been confused and hurriedly thanked the old beggar, “Thank you, thank you… I will repay you someday!”

“You may be ugly, kid, but you’re polite.”

The beggar laughed heartily, patted Qin Yu on the shoulder, and said, “No need for thanks; I still have another copy anyway.”

Qin Yu: “What?”
