After Ning Guangyao said these words, his eyes were already slightly red, a bit of luster, full of remorse.
Lin Ruoxi turned her back to him, trying to restrain her emotions. After a long silence, she let out a light breath and said indifferently, "No need … I don't hate you anymore, so I can't say I've forgiven you.
I'm living a good life now. Compared to the past, I can do what I like to do. I have family, a lover, and my own children. I'm already satisfied.
If Premier Ning really wants me to live a good life, please don't come looking for me in the future. I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. "
Ning Guangyao's face showed a trace of astonishment, but it was quickly filled with sorrow, "Ruoxi, do you really not even have the thought of looking at me, your father!? Is there really no way for me to save you!?
You are my flesh and blood! If you don't believe in my sincerity as a father, I promise you, no matter what you want, I will give it to you!
I'm not young anymore, and I don't have many years to live soberly. I just want to make up for my lack of a father as much as possible.
If you're willing, even if you want me to give you the position of the Ning family's head, I will not complain! "
Hearing that Ning Guangyao even wanted to give up the position of the head of the family, Lin Ruoxi finally couldn't help but be moved.
Turning around, looking at the excited and sincere Ning Guangyao, Lin Ruoxi couldn't help but slightly open her thin lips.
The position of the head of the Ning family?
Such a man who valued power and status so much, who had spent half of his life for these men, actually said that he wanted to give the position of the head of the family to her?
Lin Ruoxi knew that she wouldn't want those things, but the meaning contained in it made her heart soften.
After a deep sigh, Lin Ruoxi said, "I don't need those things, you can leave them to your son. My surname is Lin, not Ning."
"No!!" Ning Guangyao said resolutely, "Your surname should be Ning! You are Ning Ruoxi! Not Lin!! Ruoxi, my daughter, can't you recognize me, recognize this family!?
I am very clear that you are much more outstanding than Guodong. If you are willing, I can really give the position of Patriarch to you! I will make you the patriarch of the most powerful family in Hua Xia! "
Such an emotional outpouring made Lin Ruoxi feel a little breathless.
She would never have thought that Ning Guangyao would have such an attitude when he came in the middle of the night. How could he say something so 'sensational'?
Lin Ruoxi shook her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "I don't know. Don't say anymore. I'm very tired, you should go … "
Seeing Lin Ruoxi's pained expression, Ning Guangyao's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, but he nodded his head solemnly. "Alright, Dad won't force you. Take good care of yourself, I'll come again next time …"
Dad …
Ning Guangyao's self-address made Lin Ruoxi's delicate body tremble slightly.
How long had it been since she last said such a form of address and such a profound meaning?
Ning Guangyao looked at Lin Ruoxi standing there in a daze without saying a word. He slowly turned around and walked out. But after a few steps, Ning Guangyao seemed to have thought of something. He turned around and smiled amiably. "It's late now. That child named Lanlan must have gone to bed first.
Hehe, I already knew that you and Yang Cheng adopted a girl. Speaking of which, she is also my first granddaughter. I will definitely bring her some gifts next time I come back. "
After saying that, Ning Guangyao looked at Lin Ruoxi a few more times with slight reluctance before walking out slowly.
…
In the hall, Guo Xuehua had already served tea to Ning Xin and Ning De during this time.
However, the two of them were not interested in drinking tea. Instead, they kept glancing at the girls, especially at Qiangwei.
"Little girl, your cultivation is not bad. You've already reached the Soul Formation stage at such a young age. Are you a rogue cultivator or are you from a secular sect?" Ning Xin asked with a strange smile.
Qiangwei frowned slightly. "Since you know that I've entered the Soul Formation stage, how do you know that I'm young? Even if I'm a hundred years old today, there won't be any change in my appearance."
"Haha …" Ning De laughed. "Just from what you said, I know that you're still young. Both of us are nearly a hundred years old. How can we judge a person's age by their appearance? Your expression, behavior, tone, temperament, and pace can all tell your true age.
If we cultivators judge a person's age by their appearance, it would be a mess. "
Qiangwei snorted. "Even if that's the case, why are you asking me about this?"
Previously, she was almost bewitched by Yan Feiyu and was tricked into learning Yang Cheng's mental cultivation method. Qiangwei was especially careful now.
"Little girl, you're not from the four major clans, right?" Ning Xin squinted his eyes.
"So what if I'm not?"
"Hehe, you're full of thorns." Ning Xin laughed. "If you're not from the four major clans, then you should say goodbye to your family and friends in the secular world. In a few days, you won't be able to stay in the secular world anymore."
"What do you mean?" Qiangwei frowned in confusion.
Ning Xin and Ning De didn't say much. They picked up their teacups and didn't seem to be bothered to answer.
At this moment, Ning Guangyao walked out of the room. He exchanged glances with Ning Xin and Ning De, indicating that they could leave now.
Guo Xuehua, who had been on tenterhooks, quickly looked at Lin Ruoxi who hadn't come out of the side hall. She heaved a sigh of relief after making sure that Lin Ruoxi was fine.
Ning Guangyao didn't forget to bid farewell to Guo Xuehua. "Xuehua, Ruoxi has become the daughter-in-law of the Yang Family. Please take care of her. I'll visit her again if I have the chance in the future."
Guo Xuehua's heart skipped a beat. She didn't know what Ning Guangyao meant, but she still forced a smile and nodded. "I will. My father-in-law likes Ruoxi a lot too."
Ning Guangyao nodded happily. "It's great to be liked by Master Yang. It's a pity that Ruoxi still won't accept me. I can only wait patiently."
As a mother, Guo Xuehua put herself in his shoes. The pain of Yang Cheng refusing to acknowledge her was still fresh in her memory. Although she knew that Ning Guangyao had done many wrong things, she still couldn't help but comfort him after hearing Ning Guangyao's words. "Don't worry. Ruoxi isn't a narrow-minded child. She values family more than anyone else. I think she'll accept you one day, if you're sincere."
"Of course I'm sincere." Ning Guangyao smiled bitterly. He bid farewell again and prepared to leave with Ning Xin and Ning De.
But at this moment, Ning Xin, Ning De, and Qiangwei's expressions all changed!
"Why is there someone else …" Qiangwei couldn't help but exclaim.
"What?" Guo Xuehua was confused.
Ning Xin laughed. "I was just telling you to prepare yourself. I didn't expect them to come."
"Who is it?" Guo Xuehua asked anxiously.
Mo Qianni, Anxin, and the other girls who hadn't returned looked at each other. They felt that it would be difficult for them to sleep tonight.
While they were talking, Ning Guangyao's bodyguards who were guarding outside let out a roar!
"Who is it?!"
"Stop!!"
But immediately after, a few screams were heard. The bodyguards had obviously been taken down by someone.
The door was pushed open, and an unfamiliar figure walked into the room in a dignified manner.
He wore a gray and white striped Daoist robe with a scarlet ribbon tied around his waist. His face was handsome, and his chin was full of stubble. There were a few strands of gray hair tied into a Daoist bun.
This tall man, who looked to be in his forties, walked into the room impatiently with a long sword with a silver-grey handle on his back.
Looking at everyone in the room, the Daoist paused on Ning Xin and Ning De. He was a little surprised and then looked at Qiangwei with admiration.
"I was wondering who it was. Did Hongmeng send you, 'Absolute Sword Daoist', as the messenger this time? Tianyin Monk just died, and now they send a Daoist. It seems that Hongmeng is going to try changing messengers, haha … "Ning De teased.
Absolute Sword Daoist? Hongmeng's messenger?
Other than Hsiao Chih-ching, the other girls already knew a lot about the illusion and immediately knew who the person was.
Hsiao Chih-ching didn't react at first, but when she saw the Absolute Sword Daoist, her pretty face immediately turned pale. After many thoughts flashed through her eyes, she silently pushed Mother Wang who was next to her.
"Qing 'er, what's wrong? What is this person doing here?" Mother Wang was frightened.
Hsiao Chih-ching signaled Mother Wang to speak softly and whispered in Mother Wang's ear, "Mom, there's no time to explain. Go back to the kitchen and call your husband. Ask him to come home immediately …"
