Chapter 396 - The Might of a Sneeze (2)
“Ruoxue, actually, there are really a lot of disputes in big families.” Feng Jing sighed. Although he had been dedicated to cultivation in the past, he was someone who had been the head of a family after all. So he knew very well how complicated families were. Moreover, he had long been accustomed to a carefree life with Leng Ruoxue and the others during this period of time. If he really belonged to a particular family, he wouldn’t be able to adapt.
“I know.” How could Leng Ruoxue not know? Before her rebirth, she was also a pawn of a large family and worked hard for the family. This simple and carefree life was what she yearned for after her rebirth. So she was determined not to return to a complicated family. She had no sense of belonging no matter how strong that family was.
To her, the Leng family of the Boundless Heaven Continent could at most be considered distant relatives with a little blood relationship with her, and she was at most a proud and poor relative. So she really didn’t want to hug other people’s thighs to prevent others from giving alms to them like they were beggars.
Everyone chatted as they ate. After eating, they returned to their residence happily.
“You’re finally willing to come back!” Lan Ming complained as he looked at everyone resentfully in the courtyard.
“Uh! Where did this resentful man come from? Lass, did we go to the wrong place?” Old Zao asked exaggeratedly.
“We didn’t go to the wrong place. He probably went to the wrong place,” Leng Ruoxue teased.
“Boohoo… Little Snowy, you make me so sad,” Lan Ming complained with tears in his eyes.
“Freak, I’m tired. Let’s go back to our room!” Leng Ruoxue said to Freak, ignoring Lan Ming’s self-directed act.
“Okay.” Freak nodded and returned to the room with Leng Ruoxue.
After Leng Ruoxue and Freak returned to their room, Leng Qingtian and the others also returned to their rooms. In the blink of an eye, only Lan Ming was left in the yard.
“Boohoo… Why are these people so unsympathetic!” Lan Ming murmured to himself while looking up at the sky. He was so depressed. Boohoo… They were too evil. His mood was as gloomy as this moonless night!
You bad people…
***
The next day…
When Leng Ruoxue and the others came out from their rooms, they saw Lan Ming standing in a daze in the courtyard like a statue.
“Huh? Did you become a stone statue?” Old Zao nudged Lan Ming’s body with his hand, his face full of excitement. Clearly, he had no sympathy.
“Did he stand outside all night?” Feng Jing asked curiously.
“Probably not,” First Elder Feng guessed.
Just as everyone was discussing Lan Ming, a bird flew out of nowhere, and then they heard a plop. The bird actually let out a pile of feces. Moreover, it happened to land on Lan Ming’s head…
“Aaahhhh! Even a bird is bullying me!” The tragic Lan Ming screamed at the sky, his heart bleeding!
Everyone was stunned, and then they burst into laughter…
“Haha! This is too funny.” Old Zao laughed the most exaggeratedly, almost rolling on the ground.
Thump! Lan Ming fell to the ground stiffly.
“Haha! You’ve been standing here for too long! The image of the stunningly beautiful man is all destroyed now!” Leng Ruoxue teased happily. Why was this Lan Ming becoming more and more funny? He was so dignified and imposing the first time she saw him! Why was he now…
“You bullied me, and the bird bullied me. Boohoo…” Lan Ming wanted to cry but had no tears. His limbs were a little stiff because he had been standing for too long. The only thing he could move normally was his mouth and eyes. Boohoo… And his image! His noble and perfect image had disappeared forever since he got to know these people.
“We didn’t bully you.” Leng Ruoxue took out a pill and threw it into Lan Ming’s mouth.
“You bullied me a lot!” Lan Ming complained. After taking the pill, he stretched his limbs and got up from the ground.
“I’m going to take a bath,” Lan Ming ran back to his room in a hurry.
“Haha!” Leng Ruoxue looked at Lan Ming’s fleeing back and smiled happily.
“Xue’er, let’s make breakfast! We have to go to the competition later,” Leng Qingtian reminded.
Leng Ruoxue nodded, and everyone got busy.
After breakfast was ready, Lan Ming emerged from his room after a bath and found a chair to sit down on.
“Don’t you have to draw lots first?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously as she looked at Lan Ming, who was sitting down to eat breakfast.
“I’m hungry.” Lan Ming drank his porridge without looking up. What a heartless little girl. I haven’t eaten anything all night, yet she still wants to chase me away. Boohoo…
“Oh!” Leng Ruoxue answered softly and continued eating.
After breakfast, everyone went to the competition venue.
After reaching the arena, Lan Ming went to draw lots, while Leng Ruoxue and the others went directly to their seats.
They had sat down when the people from the Sun Zhou City branch all came.
“You’re really early today!” Sun Meilin said, her beautiful eyes flashing with anger.
“We didn’t come early. You came late. Did the additional round yesterday go smoothly?” Leng Ruoxue said with great concern.
“You don’t have to worry about that!” Sun Meilin roared furiously. As soon as she thought about yesterday, she wanted to kill people. She didn’t know what methods that ugly man used, but even a heaven-grade pill couldn’t treat Ni Tao’s injuries, causing him to have no choice but to withdraw from the competition early. It was really infuriating!
“It seems like yesterday’s matches didn’t go smoothly! Why else would Miss Sun be so angry! Ah! By the way, I have to remind you to take note of your image! The young master of the Leng family is watching from the main stage!” Leng Ruoxue said with a smile, her words full of concern. People who didn’t know would definitely think that they were good friends! Moreover, she still didn’t know that Ni Tao’s injuries hadn’t improved after taking a heaven-grade pill.
“You… just take care of yourself.” Sun Meilin almost wanted to shout again, but she suddenly remembered Leng Ruoxue’s words and forcefully endured it. Hmph! Although this ugly monster was very annoying, her words were very reasonable, so she endured it for the sake of the Leng family’s young madam position. Anyway, in her eyes, Leng Ruoxue was no different from a dead person.
