Chapter 521 Going Home
Unable to understand, Ning Bei could only awkwardly scratch her head.

"But you can't do that!"

"Tch, by the time you guys generate your own electricity, it'll be too late. I'll give you a hand."

Dugu Yan's birthday is even older than her husband's, yet she's acting like the older sister now, which leaves Ning Bei speechless. She doesn't press the matter further, since the deed is already done, so why bother with all that nonsense?
After breakfast, the three of them resumed their journey back. Along the way, Dugu Yan acted as if nothing had happened, constantly chatting with the two of them and occasionally peeking out of the carriage curtain to see scenery that Tiandou City didn't have. Meanwhile, the little cat kept looking out the window, not even daring to speak. She would only respond softly when Dugu Yan called on her.

Passing through the province of Idov, the three stopped again for a day to rest. This time, Dugu Yan's relatives did indeed leave, and Ning Bei gave them a good scolding. As for how he was scolded, that's not for outsiders to know.

As she traveled and enjoyed the scenery, Zhu Zhuqing gradually shed her initial awkwardness and began to slowly return to her former self, although the girlish innocence in her eyes and brows was no longer there.

Since they didn't deliberately rush, it took the three of them several dozen days to return to Tiandou City, where they split into two groups and headed in different directions.

Ning Bei returned to Qibao City with the kitten, while Dugu Yan, who had not returned for five years and missed her grandfather dearly, did not go back with Ning Bei and headed directly to Sunset Town.

For some reason, the kitten, who had calmed down, became nervous again as it approached the sect. Its knuckles turned white from gripping the door so tightly. Perhaps it was because its identity had changed this time, and it was feeling a little uneasy.

Ning Bei wasn't the type to take advantage of someone and then deny it, so she took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and comforted her.

"Don't worry, Ms. Fire will like you."

"Uh, I... I understand. Then, what about Uncle Ning Zong?"

"His opinion doesn't matter. I have so many stepmothers, why should he say anything to me?"

"Pfft."

Hearing Ning Bei badmouth her father, Zhu Zhuqing immediately laughed out loud, and the tension in her heart gradually subsided.

As for whether Ning Bei would abandon her, she hadn't thought about it. If the other party were really that kind of person, he would have taken advantage of her kindness long ago, and it's impossible that he hadn't touched her for so many years.

Upon returning to her sect, Ning Bei went straight to the study and found Ning Fengzhi. Coincidentally, Lady Huo had also prepared some tonics for her husband, and they happened to be there.

When Ms. Huo saw Ning Bei enter, her eyes lit up immediately.

"came back!"

Zhu Zhuqing went to Poseidon Island with her daughter, a fact that Ms. Huo was well aware of. Looking behind the two of them but not seeing Ning Rongrong, Ning's mother immediately looked somewhat disappointed.

"Where is Rongrong?"

"Zhu Qing is undergoing the Black Level 6 test, so she only needs to complete 6 tests before she can come back. Rong Rong is undergoing the Red Level 8 test, so she needs to stay on Seagod Island to complete the test."

Ning Bei explained the situation in detail, and Huo Linglong finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought that something had happened to Rongrong. Parents always worry about their children.

Thinking this, Ning Bei glanced at Ning Fengzhi, who seemed completely unaffected, and then took back the second half of her sentence. "A mother's heart is full of love for her child."

"Don't worry, Mother. Rongrong did very well. She will be able to complete the seventh exam smoothly. We'll go pick her up then."

"it is good!"

After showing concern for Ning Rongrong, Huo Linglong turned her gaze to the nervous Zhu Zhuqing. She had seen this girl many times because she spent every day with Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu. Compared to the lively Xiao Wu, Huo Linglong clearly preferred the quiet Zhu Zhuqing.

The girl she had met many times was now so nervous in front of her. As someone who had been through it all, she could naturally tell that the girl's relationship with her son was different. After carefully observing her eyes and brows, Huo Linglong immediately smiled happily.

If Ning Fengzhi were to find another woman, she might feel extremely annoyed, but she obviously wouldn't feel that anxiety about Ning Bei; she would only wholeheartedly agree.

"You must be tired too. Go and rest for a while. We'll have dinner together tonight." "Huh?"

Zhu Zhuqing, who had expected Ning's mother to say something, froze on the spot, nodding repeatedly for a long time before saying:
"Okay, I'll do whatever Auntie says."

Both of them were aware of the unspoken understanding, but Ning Bei clearly didn't intend to play games and generously reintroduced the kitten to her parents.

"Dad, Mom, let me introduce you again. This is Zhu Zhuqing, your daughter-in-law."

"Haha, we know, we know, with Zhu Qing's figure, she's bound to have a son in the future."

Zhu Zhuqing, who thought she had escaped a disaster, blushed again. Ning Bei felt that there was still a long way to go. What made him even more speechless was that this woman had now reached for his waist without any instruction. As a Limit Douluo, Ning Bei felt pain once again.

"It seems that women's talents are all innate."

He muttered to himself, knowing that the little kitten was shy, and after greeting Ning's father and mother, he took their delicate hands, which were still wrapped around his waist, and headed towards their residence.

"I never realized you could pinch so hard before."

"Humph."

She didn't pull her hand away, and Zhu Zhuqing turned her head arrogantly and snorted softly, making Ning Bei exclaim that this woman had really changed a lot after their relationship broke through. Where had she ever seen a whiny cat before?

"Would you like me to accompany you back to the Zhu family in a few days?"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing was slightly taken aback. She hadn't really thought about that before. After a moment's thought, she nodded.

"Okay, it's up to you."

The original Luo Dai family has been destroyed, and that cruel system of struggle is now just a name. Naturally, the tense relationship between her and her family no longer exists. Ning Bei told her about the recent situation of Davis and Zhu Zhuyun. She has to admit that she really wants to go back and see them.

As they were talking, the two arrived at their residence. Zhu Zhuqing was also provided with a separate residence in the sect, which made her subconsciously take a step towards her room. She had just taken two steps when a large hand climbed onto her shoulder.

The kitten looked back in confusion and saw Ning Bei's face with a mischievous grin.

"Didn't you hear your mother-in-law say that we should rest properly, not just the two of us? You've gone the wrong way."

The doubt on her face was still unresolved. Just as Zhu Zhuqing was about to say that she hadn't left, she saw Ning Bei pointing to her room. The newlywed wife's cheeks instantly turned bright red again.

"No, no. I still... Ah!"

Just as she was about to politely refuse, the kitten realized that her feet had left the ground. Before she knew it, the two of them were in Ning Bei's room.

"Xiao Zhuqing, I'll take you to play with the cat toy!"

"Get out of here, I don't want to play anymore, I want to go back to my room."

The kitten kept refusing with its mouth, but didn't move its hands, which made Ningbei laugh. She didn't expect you to be such a kitten.

Soon, the kitten began to enjoy the cat toy.
