ch 114 - Lots of Drama; Beautiful Scholar 7 (2/2)

There was only one thought in his mind – his grandson was crippled. He wouldn’t be able to stand again.

“Ning lao di, Ning lao di!!”

Old man Lin saw that his good friend was in shock and felt awful, he couldn’t help but to comfort him, “Ning lao di, take it easy. We will figure something out. Remember we’ve heard of medicines (dan) that could heal severed tendons? We just have to find these pills for Xunzong!”

Old man Quan joined in in consoling old man Ning, “Ning lao di, as long as Xunzong is okay, we can find a way to treat his injuries.”

“Exactly, people had taken these medicines before and all their severed tendons recovered. Just calm down for now, Ning lao di.”

After the words from his good friends, old man Ning finally recovered from his shock. Suddenly, he seemed to have aged a few years. His previously straightened back hunched a little.

“Ning lao, what exactly happened?”

Finally, words had reached Mu Qingtong, who had been recovering from his injuries in the guest quarter. Seeing his arrival, old man Du said to the rest of them, “Let’s find a place to sit down and talk.”

The Ning’s resident finally returned to its usual quietness after two hours.

Several people sitting in the Ning’s living room. None of them looking too happy. Especially old man Ning, looking all the more dejected. His precious grandchild would never be able to stand again, how could he not?

Similarly, Mu Qingtong looked scarily gloomy. After resting for the last few days, he has been recovering well. He didn’t expect that his three students would be turned into crippled today. What could he possibly say to the management of the school as their instructor?

“Elders, you must know what happened, right?” Mu Qingtong stared at them intensely. He knew that he had saved the three and brought them back. They must know what happened.
