ch 218 - Plotted Against By The Relatives; An Attack At Midnight 3 (2/2)
Cheng Zheng Yuan stood up from the chair when he saw Cheng Xiao Xiao. He had a lot of respect for his older sister and that came from his heart.
“Zheng Yuan, I heard you are looking for me. What is the matter? Is something wrong?” Cheng Xiao Xiao gestured him to sit and inquired about the purpose of his visit.
“Nothing!” said Cheng Zheng Yuan, slightly embarrassed. He peeked at her through the corner of his eyes; he looked like there was something on his mind, but he was hesitant to share.
Cheng Xiao Xiao found that both annoying and funny at the same time, “We are siblings, what can’t you share with me. C’mon, spill!”
“Haha, big sister, it’s not like that!” Cheng Zheng Yuan inadvertently showed the childish side of himself. His eyes beamed and asked, “Big sister, you are incredible. How did you become martial master in such short time? Did you encounter something major on your trip?”
“Yeah, I might have ran into a little bit trouble that brought about the sudden break through, but these things don’t happen everything and it’s not something I could teach you either!”
She knew what he was fishing for, but she had no intention to let him into the dimension any time soon. After all, they were families; she didn’t want them to just be loyal to her.
Unless they encountered something that’s a life and death matter, then she’d let them go inside. But just for cultivating? She’d rather figure out some other ways to help him out.
“Oh? That’s what I thought too!”
Cheng Zheng Yuan smiled, but he couldn’t hide the disappointment in his eyes. Cheng Xiao Xiao felt a tinge of guilt and said, “Zheng Yuan, you are already a mid-level martial scholar. That’s really quite talented already. It won’t be helpful in a long run to force raise your cultivation level. Don’t worry, I will help you when the time comes for your break throughs!”
“Yes, big sister, I understand!” Cheng Zheng Yuan nodded and smiled.
Seeing that he didn’t look genuinely happy, Cheng Xiao Xiao was a bit surprised and asked, “Zheng Yuan, something else on your mind?”
