The world reincarnates, each time a new talent!

188: Shi Zhongyu: Dad!After the sun had risen high in the sky.

Ning Yuan left the room, feeling completely satisfied.

Leaving behind a room in complete disarray.

Min Rou huddled under the covers, looking at the mess on her body, wanting to cry but finding no tears.

If the first time was due to drunkenness, and the next morning she was caught off guard.

Then what was this time?

This time, she hadn’t been drinking, and both parties were perfectly sober.

And she hadn’t firmly refused either.

Yet in the end, they had done such a thing; if this were known to others, her reputation would be completely ruined.

”Could I really be a...”

Min Rou couldn’t help but think this.

Then she immediately shook her head. ”No, that’s not it. I hadn’t been drinking this time, but Mr. Yue had. He momentarily mistook me for Heroine Ning, which is why this happened.”

Min Rou whispered to herself, justifying her actions and searching for a reason to prove that it wasn’t her true intent and that it wasn’t voluntary.

She was still the pure and unsullied Ice and Snow Divine Sword.

On the other side.

After Ning Yuan walked out of the room, he soon encountered Bei Haishi and the others.

The group glanced back, and upon not seeing Min Rou, they all wore intriguing expressions. Then, they hurriedly said, ”Manor Lord Shi, our men have been searching throughout the night and have already found some traces. We believe we will be able to invite your son back very soon.”

Bei Haishi bowed and said ingratiatingly.

”In that case, I thank you all.”

Ning Yuan did not deny his identity; instead, he nodded with a smile and accepted.

...

”Young Master Shi, please come back with us.”

In a restaurant within the city, the members of the Chang Le Gang surrounded Shi Zhongyu. However, due to the instructions from Bei Haishi and the others, they dared not use force and could only say fawningly, ”Young Master Shi, we do not intend to harm you.”

”The strategist said that your parents, the Black and White Swords, have already arrived at the gang and are waiting for you there. We have come specifically to pick you up so you can see your parents and return home.”

The members of the Chang Le Gang persuaded him earnestly.

However, Shi Zhongyu was half-believing and half-doubting.

”My parents are here?”

Shi Zhongyu showed signs of being moved, but immediately let out a cold snort, saying with an expression of disbelief, ”You are just trying to trick me. I won’t believe it.”

”Young Master Shi, Great Master Shi?”

”It’s true. Even if we wanted to trick you into coming back, why would we use such a clumsy lie?”

”That’s right, Young Master Shi. If you don’t go back, your parents will surely come out to look for you. If you keep running, you really won’t be able to see your parents.”

The people around him chimed in one after another.

Seeing them act this way, Shi Zhongyu also showed hesitation.

”Young Master Shi, you must believe us. If it weren’t true, we wouldn’t need to persuade you so earnestly; we would have already used force.”

At this moment, one of them suddenly said this.

Hearing this, Shi Zhongyu couldn’t help but nod. ”That does make some sense. Anyway, I’ve been caught by you now, and my whereabouts are exposed. Even if I don’t go back voluntarily, I can’t escape the fate of being dragged back. Since that’s the case, I’ll go back with you and see if what you’re saying is true or false.”

Shi Zhongyu’s eyes hardened, and he said loudly.

Upon hearing this, the crowd immediately showed delight.

”Young Master Shi, you are right. If it were fake, we wouldn’t need to be so polite.”

”Young Master Shi, then let’s go quickly.”

Everyone also looked relieved.

After all, when they left, Bei Haishi and the various hall masters had given strict orders that they must not harm Shi Zhongyu, or else they would face the gang’s disciplinary rules.

Otherwise, why would they be acting so subserviently?

Shi Zhongyu could only accept it for now.

”It looks like there’s really something to this. Otherwise, given the Chang Le Gang’s previous attitude toward me, they wouldn’t be so respectful after catching me. Could Mom and Dad have really come?”

”If that’s really the case, then I’m saved. But I wonder if Mom and Dad already know about my time at the Snow Mountain Sect. What if Dad wants to kill me?”

”No need to fear. As long as Mom is there, she can protect me.”

Various thoughts floated through Shi Zhongyu’s mind.

But in the end, he decided to go and see for himself.

...

On the other side, Bei Haishi and the others gathered once again.

”It seems that the Ice and Snow Divine Sword really has something going on with that Gentleman Sword.”

Zhan Fei said with an ambiguous expression.

”I really didn’t expect that the Ice and Snow Divine Sword, known in the Jianghu for being pure and unsullied, would have such a relationship with Yue Buqun, known in the Jianghu as the Gentleman Sword. At this hour, the Ice and Snow Divine Sword still hasn’t left her room; I fear the commotion last night was not small. It’s a pity that if we weren’t afraid of Yue Buqun and dared not get close, we would definitely have been able to see concrete evidence.”

Mi Hengye stroked his chin, expressing his thoughts with a sigh. ”Tsk tsk, the Ice and Snow Divine Sword has a voluptuous figure; she truly lives up to her reputation as a beauty in the Jianghu. What a pity...”

Mi Hengye couldn’t help but sigh.

Who wouldn’t want to get close to such a beauty?

Especially since she was the world-renowned Ice and Snow Divine Sword, the wife of the Manor Lord of Xuan Su Manor, a married woman; with these multiple identities, she was naturally even more alluring.

”Don’t think so much, and in front of those two, you are absolutely not allowed to show any such thoughts, understand?”

Bei Haishi scolded them with a serious expression, then continued, ”I have already arranged for people to search for the whereabouts of Shi Qing, and at the right time, I will have someone reveal this matter without leaving a trace.”

”Strategist, you’ve already arranged it? How do you intend to reveal it?”

Zhan Fei and the others looked at Bei Haishi.

He was truly decisive; he only had the idea last night, and today he had already begun to plan and implement it.

”Of course, I cannot reveal it openly; wouldn’t that arouse suspicion?”

Bei Haishi showed a confident expression. ”I will arrange for people to occasionally mention their couple’s visit to the Chang Le Gang near him. When that happens, we won’t need to say much; Shi Qing will naturally become suspicious and investigate it himself.”

”If we tell him directly, he might not believe it. People are only willing to believe things they have investigated themselves.”

Bei Haishi had an expression of absolute certainty.

”Strategist is brilliant!”

The three immediately gave a thumbs up, expressing their admiration.

”The strategist’s plan is excellent. As long as Shi Qing investigates a little bit, and we release a few more details, it will definitely lead him to the truth. As a man, I don’t believe Shi Qing will be able to swallow his pride.”

”When the time comes, he will definitely find an opportunity to confront Yue Buqun. Perhaps, out of fear of the other’s strength, he might even seek justice from the people of the world. By then, Yue Buqun will surely be disgraced and reviled by everyone.”

Everyone expressed their agreement.

...

It was past noon before Min Rou staggered out of the room.

At the same time, she had bathed and cleaned herself up.

Otherwise, the strange odor on her body would be unacceptable to Min Rou, who had always loved cleanliness.

”We have already found clues; I suppose we will be able to see Shi Zhongyu today.”

Upon seeing Min Rou, Ning Yuan spoke first to comfort her.

Hearing this, Min Rou immediately showed joy.

After searching for her beloved son for so long, she was finally about to find him; how could she not be happy? At the same time, she felt a sense of relief.

As long as she didn’t see him for a day, she would be on pins and needles.

The Jianghu is treacherous, and she was deeply afraid that something might happen to Shi Zhongyu, that he might encounter wicked people, get hurt, or even be killed.

”Thank heavens, I am finally going to find Yu’er.”

Min Rou pressed her palms together and said silently.

”Shi Zhongyu has returned.”

Just at this moment, a commotion suddenly came from outside.

After Min Rou heard the content clearly, she immediately ran out quickly, not even caring about the pain in her lower body, enduring the pain as she ran out.

Soon, Min Rou saw Shi Zhongyu in the crowd.

And Shi Zhongyu naturally saw Min Rou too.

”Mom!”

Upon seeing Min Rou, Shi Zhongyu understood that the people from the Chang Le Gang hadn’t tricked him this time, and Shi Zhongyu immediately ran over in excitement.

”Yu’er, Mom has finally found you.”

Min Rou was also extremely emotional and hugged Shi Zhongyu, crying out loudly.

Shi Zhongyu’s gaze looked behind, and he couldn’t help but ask, ”Mom, where is Dad?”

Shi Zhongyu asked with some worry.

He understood his father Shi Qing’s personality very well; he might be thinking about how to punish him right now. If he were to be brought to the Snow Mountain Sect to confess and face judgment, it would be better not to be found by his parents; even if he were being used by the Chang Le Gang, he could at least save his life for now.

”Don’t mention your father to me.”

Hearing Shi Zhongyu mention Shi Qing, an unnatural look appeared on Min Rou’s face, and she scolded him in a low voice.

Whether it was Shi Qing’s betrayal or her own betrayal, it made it difficult for her to face Shi Qing again.

”Dad didn’t come?”

Hearing this, Shi Zhongyu’s eyes lit up, and he showed a look of pleasant surprise.

If Shi Qing hadn’t come, that would be easy to handle, and he would be safe.

”But Mom, how did you get the Chang Le Gang to let me go?”

Then Shi Zhongyu was a bit curious.

Having spent time messing around in the Jianghu, he naturally knew the power of the Chang Le Gang; it was impossible for them to be so afraid of their Xuan Su Manor.

”We’ll talk about that later. I invited a...”

Min Rou hesitated for a moment before continuing, ”I invited an expert to come here. The people of the Chang Le Gang thought he was your father, Shi Qing. They feared this expert’s strength, which is why they chose to release you. After you see that expert, you must not give the game away and let the people of the Chang Le Gang know that he is not your father.”

Min Rou instructed in a low voice.

”So that’s how it is. But what kind of expert could make the Chang Le Gang fear them?”

Shi Zhongyu became curious, and at the same time, his eyes rolled around, and he thought to himself secretly, ”To be able to make the people of the Chang Le Gang so fearful that they would take the initiative to find me and not dare to use force, shows how high his strength must be. If I can build a relationship with this expert, wouldn’t I be able to walk sideways in the Jianghu in the future?”

”No, I have to think of a way to build a relationship with this expert.”

Shi Zhongyu’s eyes flickered, and he made a secret decision in his heart.

He did not see the flash of unnaturalness on Min Rou’s face.

”Don’t you worry about that.”

Min Rou turned to the side, sighed lightly, and then said sternly, ”You just need to know that you should speak less when the time comes. We will take you away from here safely. When we return to Xuan Su Manor, you will reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors.”

”Mom!”

Shi Zhongyu immediately grabbed Min Rou’s sleeve and acted like a spoiled child.

At this moment, Ning Yuan also walked out, and Shi Zhongyu’s gaze landed on Ning Yuan.

”Mom, is this that expert?”

Shi Zhongyu’s eyes lit up, and various fawning thoughts had already appeared in his heart.

After all, someone who could make the Chang Le Gang feel fear was definitely not an ordinary person; his strength might even be among the top in the entire Jianghu.

If he could latch onto him, he would definitely become his great backer. In the future, in the Jianghu, who would still dare to provoke him?

Just as Shi Zhongyu was letting his imagination run wild, Ning Yuan also walked over.

”It seems this must be Yu’er.”

Ning Yuan glanced at Shi Zhongyu and said with a smile.

”This is...”

Shi Zhongyu was just about to step forward to greet him, when Bei Haishi and the others also rushed over.

”Manor Lord Shi, Madam Shi, I am fortunate not to have failed the mission and have brought your son back.”

Bei Haishi glanced at Shi Zhongyu, then said respectfully to Ning Yuan and Min Rou.

Hearing Bei Haishi address Ning Yuan as Manor Lord Shi, Shi Zhongyu was stunned for a moment, then his eyes rolled, and a plan formed in his mind. ”Strategist Bei, you still have some discernment; you know how powerful my father is. Now that my father has come to find me, I won’t play with you anymore.”

Shi Zhongyu came to Ning Yuan’s side, grabbed Ning Yuan’s sleeve, held his head high, and said haughtily.

”Yes, yes!”

Bei Haishi smiled apologetically and agreed.

But inwardly, he snorted.

Min Rou, who was on the side, saw this scene and couldn’t help but glare at Shi Zhongyu. Then she looked at Ning Yuan awkwardly, but at this moment, she couldn’t really say much.

Shi Zhongyu was secretly delighted, ”It seems they really have mistaken this expert for my father. Since that’s the case, I might as well go with the flow and acknowledge this father. Even if it’s explained clearly later, relying on this relationship, perhaps I can even acknowledge him as a foster father. With this backer, let’s see who dares to hurt me!”

”What Snow Mountain Sect? Let’s see if they still dare to provoke me, and they still want me to go back and be punished? That’s just wishful thinking.”

Shi Zhongyu thought complacently.

”Since Yu’er has been found, we will also return to Xuan Su Manor, so we won’t disturb the Chang Le Gang any further.”

Min Rou said at this time.

After all, there were many people here, and it was inconvenient.

It was not impossible that someone might have seen her husband Shi Qing and recognized that the person by her side was not her husband Shi Qing.

Therefore, staying one more day meant one more danger.

”That is natural. The three of you can leave at any time. We will prepare a banquet to see the three of you off right now.”

Bei Haishi was still smiling.

”There is no need for a banquet. We have been out for so long, and we should return early to take a look. We won’t disturb you further.”

Min Rou refused immediately.

”That is fine then. I, the old man, will apologize to the three of you again here.”

Bei Haishi did not continue to press them after hearing this, and he still bowed and returned the salute with a smile.

”Thank you, Mr. Bei, for your help this time. Xuan Su Manor will remember this favor.”

Ning Yuan also nodded with a smile.

Bei Haishi and the others also watched the three of them leave.

Until their backs could no longer be seen, Zhan Fei said, ”That Shi Zhongyu actually called him Dad. Could it be that we misunderstood, and that person really is Shi Qing?”

Zhan Fei was full of doubt.

Min Rou could fake it to deter them, not denying or admitting it, but now that Shi Zhongyu admitted it, they couldn’t help but be suspicious.

”That’s true. Anyone can fake it, but a son couldn’t possibly not recognize his own father and acknowledge a random person as his father, right?”

Mi Hengye also said loudly.

If the other party really was Shi Qing, wouldn’t their plan have miscarried before it even started?

They would have to swallow this bitter pill themselves.

Bei Haishi sneered at this moment, raised his hand to stop them, and said disdainfully, ”You all underestimated that little thing, Shi Zhongyu. This little thing’s character is extremely corrupt. He is currently being hunted by the Snow Mountain Sect, and he could even do something like acknowledging a thief as his father; what does this amount to?”

”Strategist, you mean...”

The eyes of the three all fell on Bei Haishi.
