Chapter 273: Roping In! (1/2)
“Is there anything else, small steamed bun?” Cheng Yu turned around, chuckling at Ning Wushuang.
“You…where are you guys heading?” Seeing how her senior and junior sisters were all giggling at her actions, Ning Wushuang turned embarrassed by the situation.
“Of course I am seeking more treasures. You should be more careful. We shall meet again if the opportunity arises!” Cheng Yu replied. Although this small steamed bun was Guo Feng’s lover, Cheng Yu did not have any resentment towards her. He only felt that it was a pity. Such a beautiful lady was actually defiled by that degenerate Guo Feng. Noticing that Cheng Yu was going to leave, Ning Wushuang wanted to speak, but she hesitated. Ultimately, she did not call out to Cheng Yu because she had no idea what topic she could talk about. The feelings she had for Cheng Yu had turned complex after this meeting.
Meanwhile, the senior and junior sisters of Ning Wushuang were curious. Wasn’t Cheng Yu Ning Wushuang’s lover? Why did it seem like it wasn’t as they expected? Could it be it’s just a one-sided love from Ning Wushuang? Noticing Ning Wushuang’s expression, they confirmed that it was just an unrequited love.
“Oi! The guy named Cheng Yu! Stop right there!” At this moment, Ning Xue who was standing beside Ning Wushuang called out to Cheng Yu.
“Pretty lady, are there any matters?” Cheng Yu instantly turned around. When he saw the indignant expression displayed on Ning Xue’s face, Cheng Yu was confused. He didn’t remember offending her. Why was she looking at him like that? Could she have fallen for him? En. This is possible.
“How can you be like this? My Junior Sister is in love with you. Yet you are leaving without even speaking much to her?” Ning Xue argued in fury.
“Senior Sister…” Ning Wushuang was embarrassed. She didn’t expect Ning Xue to actually speak so frankly. All along, she did not even say anything about the love she had for him! Ning Wushuang had explained to them countless times, but they chosen not to believe her. Thus, she couldn’t be bothered to waste any more effort explaining it. Unexpectedly, Ning Xue had actually blasted out the hidden feelings she kept within her heart. How was she going to face others if such a thing were to be spread out?
“Your Junior Sister? In love with me?” Cheng Yu widened his eyes. Since when had he got acquainted with any of her junior sisters? When he saw Ning Wushuang was pulling Ning Xue’s sleeve, he questioned with astonishment, ”Small steamed bun, she isn’t referring to you, right?”
All of a sudden, Cheng Yu felt a sharp pain on his waist. He turned around and saw Tian Xue was looking at him icily while her hand pinching his waist mercilessly.
“No….no! Don’t misunderstand!” When Ning Wushuang was questioned, she got even more embarrassed.
“What no? Previously when you heard that he’s dead, you had been grieving for such a long period of time. Now that he’s standing before you, you don’t dare to confess your feelings to him?” Ning Xue did not have that many things to consider compared to Ning Wushuang. She had always felt that Ning Wushuang was in love with Cheng Yu, but was timid in confessing her love. As her Senior Sister, she felt the need to help her Junior Sister pursue her happiness.
“Senior Sister, we aren’t like what you thought,” Ning Wushuang hastily clarified. Formerly, when she got into conflict with Cheng Yu at the riverbank, it was then she saw him fighting against Kunlun. During that time, she was merely shocked by Cheng Yu’s overwhelming fighting power. She felt that Cheng Yu was very mysterious. Other than the fury she had for teasing her, most of it was her curiousity. She wanted to know more about him, like how he was able to burst forth such an overwhelming fighting prowess.
After that, when she heard that Cheng Yu had died, her heart was feeling very complicated. The feelings couldn’t be said as sadness or sorrow, but more of regret. Although Cheng Yu had provoked her, they had only met once and it was her first time wanting to know more of the opposite sex. But knowing that he was dead, the complications she felt in her heart was filled with regrets. However, these kinds of indescribable feelings were actually misunderstood by her senior and junior sisters as love she had for Cheng Yu.
“The situation has already developed to this stage and you still do not dare to confess? Do you wish to wait until he is taken away by some other females before you start regretting it?” Ning Xue was persistent in her opinion as she looked towards Tian Xue that was standing very closely to Cheng Yu.
“Senior Sister, you really misunderstood. There’s really nothing between him and me!” Ning Wushuang grumbled.

“Small steamed bun, what your Senior Sister said isn’t real, right? You really mourned for me?” Cheng Yu stared at Ning Wushuang strangely. Although she had no idea how he died, she actually mourned for him? Since when had their relationship developed to such an extent? Previously, Cheng Yu had teased her quite a number of times. If it was said that she wished to kill him, Cheng Yu would certainly believe it. Why would she mourn for him?
“Who mourned for you? You scoundrel! Aren’t you going to scram?!” Ning Wushuang had also gotten angry. She had returned to that violent woman Cheng Yu met at the riverbank.
“This is the real you. Here I’m thinking, since when had this small steamed bun become so gentle and pleasant. It all turned out to be an illusion. Alright, I’m leaving. Bye-bye!” Seeing the woman’s personality had matched up with the one he saw at the riverbank, Cheng Yu relaxed. He waved his hand as he bid goodbye.
“Cheng Yu, hold on for a moment,” At this moment, Ning Yan, who was standing beside Ning Wushuang, called out to Cheng Yu. After she witnessed the battle between Wu Ming and Cheng Yu, Ning Yan’s eyes brightened up. She sought to get Wushuang to ask Cheng Yu if they could journey together. But the situation didn’t develop according to what they had expected. They seemed to not have much of a relation. Just when Ning Yan was hesitating if she should invite Cheng Yu herself, Cheng Yu was already about to leave. Thus, for her junior sisters’ safety, she chose to call out to Cheng Yu.
