Chapter 1008: Unprecedented Desire for Sleep

Father Xu’s brows furrowed slightly. “Did something happen? Something happened with that girl?”

“Dad, it’s nothing. I’m just a little tired. I’m going to rest first.” Ning Shu rubbed her temples. She felt both mentally and physically exhausted. “I just finished fighting a lawsuit, so I’m a little tired.”

“Then go rest,” said Father Xu hastily. “Shower and have a proper night’s sleep.”

Ning Shu grabbed her clothes and returned to her room. After showering, she sat down on the bed and started practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. Just as she started getting focused, she was disrupted by her phone ringing.

Ning Shu was a little annoyed. She couldn’t suppress the anger in her heart and had to chant the heart-clearing chant to get this anger to go down. She picked up her phone and saw that it was freakin’ Xia Xiaoman again.

Ning Shu didn’t even bother thinking about things before directly hanging up. It was seriously annoying. She was calling practically every other day. How was this anything like how a couple that had broken up was supposed to act?

And she was always weeping on the other end. Just the sound of it was irritating.

Since her cultivation had been interrupted, she decided to just sleep. From the start it was hard to cultivate in the modern era since there wasn’t enough spiritual energy. It was pretty much impossible to form an energy and there was also the suppression effect of the heavenly law.

Just as Ning Shu fell asleep, there was the sound of knocking. In her half-conscious state, she heard Xia Xiaoman’s voice come from outside. “Big Brother Wenlang...” Ning Shu frickin’ thought she was dreaming.

However, the knocking persisted for a really long time. Ning Shu had no choice but to get up. She had never experienced so much desire to sleep in a world.

Why the frick was she being so annoying?

The moment Ning Shu opened the door, she saw Xia Xiaoman standing outside with an anxious expression. She was so anxious that her forehead was covered with sweat. It looked like something huge had happened.

“Big Brother Wenlang, I have something I need to talk to you about. Let’s talk outside.” Xia Xiaoman reflexively made to take Ning Shu’s hand to pull her outside, but she recalled that they had already broken up and forcefully stopped herself.

“Big Brother Wenlang, there’s something important I need to talk to you about.” Xia Xiaoman’s face was filled with anxiousness, but she was worried that Ning Shu wouldn’t step out with her, so she looked towards Ning Shu with a beseeching expression.

Ning Shu had no choice but to follow Xia Xiaoman outside to the neighborhood park. Finally, Xia Xiaoman asked Ning Shu, “Big Brother Wenlang, did you meet Chu Xiaoran? You can’t trust him! He’s a devil that eats people whole without even spitting out the bones! You can’t let yourself be deceived by him!”

So this was the initial impression Xia Xiaoman had of Chu Xiaoran. But in the end, she even fell in love with this devil.

When Xia Xiaoman saw that Ning Shu didn’t speak, she said anxiously, “Big Brother Wenlang, trust me. Please don’t interact with Chu Xiaoran.”

“You know Chu Xiaoran?” Ning Shu looked at her. Even in this situation, Xia Xiaoman still hadn’t told her about the truth, yet she was still trying to use the banner of caring for him. Ning Shu didn’t even know what to say.

Xia Xiaoman froze and she looked like she was put in a difficult situation. “Big Brother Wenlang, trust me. I wouldn’t harm you.”

Xia Xiaoman found it hard to talk. Could it be that she should tell Big Brother Wenlang that she was now really dirty, really wretched? That she was someone’s mistress? A mistress with no dignity that had to obey everything without question?

Xia Xiaoman was just waiting for Chu Xiaoran to get tired of her so that he would give her back those photos and let her leave.

“Big Brother Wenlang, I have no other choice right now, but you really had to believe me about Chu Xiaoran. He’s a sinister cunning demon!” said Xia Xiaoman. “You’re the one person I care about most aside from my family. Big Brother Wenlang, I don’t want you to get hurt.”
