524 The Wind Kicks Up 3 (1/2)

”The truth of the matter was that Li Zi Mu was the one who started the whole farce and Yin Yan was inexorably duped into playing along with it.” Ning Rui said with a meaningful glance to Ning Xin.

Ning Xin's eyes lit up and a smile grew on her lips.

”What Father means is for Yin Yan to go apologise to Jun Xie.”

Ning Rui nodded, satisfacted. ”This time, do not fail me again, or I will really be utterly disappointed with you.” Ning Rui's steely gaze fell on Ning Xin suddenly felt the chill from those eyes. Even though they were linked in blood, Ning Xin was still extremely fearful of her own father.

”I won't…..” Ning Xin gulped, as she hurriedly reassured.

However, things did not turn out the way as what Ning Xin and Ning Rui had planned.

Ning Rui had intended for Lu Wei Jie and the other over twenty disciples to become scapegoats for the disaster his daughter had caused and thought that the fact that Lu Wei Jie had a soft spot for Ning Xin all this while would make Lu Wei Jie be willing to hide the real truth behind the matter for her.

But…..

Ning Rui did not know that Ning Xin had hidden part of the truth from him. In order to save herself, Ning Xin had quickly only brought Yin Yan back with her and left Lu Wei Jie and the rest of the team in the lurch which had almost caused all of them to lose their lives.

In view of the circumstances, there was no way Lu Wei Jie would hide the truth for Ning Xin, especially when they got to know that he and the other over twenty disciples were to be driven out of the Zephyr Academy while Ning Xin and Yin Yan did not suffer any form of punishment in the least.

Lu Wei Jie was absolutely outraged!
