Chapter 199 - Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Seeing Ning Yue Again (2/2)

“And you two, stop standing there slack-jawed, come sit down…”

It wasn’t until Li Tangyu called out that Li Qingqing and Huang Qingling snapped back to reality.

The two of them looked at Lin Jing with a very strange gaze.

Then, they turned their eyes toward Ning Yue.

At this moment, they racked their brains but couldn’t figure out why Lin Jing would know Ning Yue.

After all, whether in terms of cultivation or family background, there was a huge gap between them.

It could even be said that they were from two different worlds.

Next, Li Tangyu began to make the introductions.

He started with Li Qingqing.

“This is my younger sister. Miss Ning has met her before, so no need to reintroduce.”

Then he pointed to Huang Qingling:

“This young lady here is Elder Bai from Yuebaolou’s niece, Huang Qingling.”

“And Lin Jing, Brother Lin…”

“Since you two are old acquaintances, my introductions would be redundant.”

Having said that, he began introducing Ning Yue to everyone.

“This is Ning Yue from the Ning Family of Linxian City.”

“The Ning Family in Linxian City is quite renowned, just like our Li Family; they are also a longstanding Dan Dao family.”

“Alright, please take your seats…”

Then everyone sat down.

At this time, Li Tangyu spoke up and asked Lin Jing:

“Brother Lin, I’m very curious. How did you meet Miss Ning?”

Lin Jing turned his head to look at Ning Yue.

Ning Yue nodded slightly.

Then, Lin Jing turned back and said to Li Tangyu:

“Miss Ning and I were neighbors back at Fang Market.”

“And, well, if we’re being honest, Miss Ning can be considered half a master on my journey of alchemy.”

Ning Yue suddenly spoke up, saying:

“Actually, I didn’t really teach you anything.”

“It was you who helped me a lot…”

“Miss Ning is being too modest. If it weren’t for your help in fixing the alchemy manual, I fear I would have run into financial trouble early on in my alchemy career and given up on the art of alchemy.”

After finishing, Lin Jing suddenly remembered something.

Then he asked Ning Yue:

“Miss Ning, you’ve come here, so…”

“What about Luo Luo?”

“Did she not come with you?”

Ning Yue spoke up:

“Luo Luo is practicing with her master…”

“Cultivating?”

Lin Jing looked puzzled and asked Ning Yue:

“Isn’t it that Luo Luo has no spiritual root and can’t cultivate?”

Ning Yue replied, clarifying:

“Actually, we’ve been mistaken all along…”

“Turns out Luo Luo doesn’t lack a spiritual root. Instead, she possesses a hidden spirit root that isn’t usually evident.”

“That’s why we got it wrong.”

“Fortunately, we met a master who recognized Luo Luo’s hidden spirit root and accepted Luo Luo as a disciple, taking her away.”

Ning Yue said this with a tone full of satisfaction.

“Are you saying Luo Luo actually has a spiritual root and can cultivate…”

Lin Jing’s eyes widened as he spoke.

“Yes…” Ning Yue nodded.

“And the senior who took Luo Luo away mentioned that her aptitude is likely to be exceptional.”

“That’s wonderful…”

“Now Miss Ning can rest assured.”

Lin Jing felt truly happy that Luo Luo could cultivate.

The conversation between Lin Jing and Ning Yue left Li Tangyu and his sister somewhat befuddled.

Only Huang Qingling had a vague idea of what was going on, though she didn’t dare to confirm it.

“Who is Luo Luo?”

At this point, Li Qingqing asked, puzzled.

“Luo Luo is my daughter…”

Ning Yue said candidly.

However, this revelation was like an earthquake, astonishing both Li Tangyu and his sister.

“Ning… Miss Ning, you’re married?”

Li Tangyu said with disbelief, stuttering.

“And even have a child…”

Li Qingqing was just as shocked and added her comment.

“Yes…”

Ning Yue answered.

“So you’re Luo Luo’s mother…”

Huang Qingling suddenly realized.
