Chapter 183: Misunderstanding, Old Friends Meet.
"What did you say? Sister-in-law!?"
Oscar was stunned, his eyes darting between Xuan Mo and Ning Rongrong. "Brother, are you mistaken?"
The fat man said with a look of certainty, "How is that possible? Judging from the looks of it, this lady is most likely my sister-in-law."
At this time, Ning Rongrong's face had also darkened. Suppressing her anger, she said, "What are you talking about? We have never met, and we don't know your eldest brother, so how could she be your sister-in-law? You must have recognized the wrong person."
"How could you not know my eldest brother? Isn't this..."
Just as the fat man was about to point, Xuan Mo interrupted him, "Rongrong, if I'm not mistaken, you really might be their sister-in-law."
Hearing Xuan Mo's words, the fat man and the thin man smiled, and Oscar was also thoughtful. The only exception was Ning Rongrong.
Xuan Mo's words were like a fuse, completely igniting Ning Rongrong's suppressed anger.
Ning Rongrong grabbed Xuan Mo's ear and roared in tears, "Xuan Mo! What do you mean?! Are you suspecting me of cheating on you?!"
Xuan Mo gasped, feeling as if his ear was about to be ripped off.
He quickly said, "Hiss! Rongrong, let go and listen to my explanation!"
"I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it..."
Seeing Ning Rongrong shaking her head frantically, Xuan Mo quickly signaled to Oscar and the others to help calm Ning Rongrong down.
Otherwise, if this continued, he wouldn't be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Oscar immediately understood and stepped forward to try to persuade them.
The fat and thin men beside them exchanged glances, realizing that what they had just said had likely caused Ning Rongrong to misunderstand, and they hurried forward to help.
The moment he pulled Ning Rongrong away, Xuan Mo, ignoring her struggles, embraced her tightly, saying, "Rongrong, the big brother they're talking about is none other than me."
Ning Rongrong's movements immediately subsided. After sobbing in Xuan Mo's arms, she slowly raised her head, her eyes reddening, and said aggrievedly, "Really?" Xuan Mo said helplessly, "Of course it's true."
"Humph!"
Ning Rongrong glanced around, watching the fat man and the thin man nod frantically. Her face flushed instantly, her nose twitching, and she huddled back into Xuan Mo's arms. "It's all your fault! You made me look bad!"
"Yes, yes, it's all my fault."
Xuan Mo patted Ning Rongrong's back with pity, which immediately made the three single people around him eat a lot of dog food.
Finally, Oscar couldn't help but say, "Tsk tsk tsk, Old Mo, that's enough. The other bosses are still waiting."
The shop owner smiled slightly, "I'm not in a hurry here. You young people can take your time."
Oscar's interruption destroyed the previous atmosphere. After Ning Rongrong emerged from Xuan Mo's arms, she glared at Oscar, then pulled out a gold card and handed it to the shop owner. Seeing this, the fat man beside her also immediately pulled out a gold card from his soul guide storage device and handed it over.
After receiving the prototype soul guide device, everyone left the shop. The owner watched them leave and couldn't help but murmur, "This is youth! How enviable!"
...
Arriving at a makeshift tavern, Ning Rongrong glanced at the fat man and the thin man and said,
"Mo, won't you introduce yourself?"
"Sister-in-law, let's do it ourselves."
Ning Rongrong blushed at the fat man's address and feigned anger.
"What sister-in-law?"
"Why? Aren't you?"
Xuan Mo, observing Ning Rongrong's duplicity, put his arm around her shoulders and teased.
"Humph! You only know how to bully me. We haven't even started dating yet. Besides, if you want to marry me, you still have to get past Grandpa Gu and the others."
Xuan Mo smiled slightly, walked over to the fat man, and patted his belly.
"Sanqian, you've gained weight again!"
Jin Sanqian laughed heartily, spreading his massive arms and hugging Xuan Mo fiercely. A crackling sound echoed.
After releasing them, Xuan Mo walked over to the thin man and patted his shoulder. He looked as if he might break him if he wasn't careful. "Wilda, long time no see."
"It's been a long time, seven years."
"Yes, seven years..."
"Old Mo, why don't you introduce them? What are you talking about?" Oscar winked at Xuan Mo, clearly intrigued by Jin Sanqian and Wilda's backgrounds.
"Stop rambling, just listen."
Xuan Mo glanced at Oscar and began to explain the origins of Jin Sanqian and Wilda, as well as the relationship between the three of them...
"I see."
After Xuan Mo's introduction and their own comments, Oscar and Ning Rongrong also understood the identities of Jin Sanqian and Wilda, as well as their current cultivation levels.
"Oh, Sanqian..." Xuan Mo suddenly remembered something and looked at Jin Sanqian and asked, "How did you recognize me?"
Jin Sanqian's face trembled slightly, and then he pointed at the wine gourd on Xuan Mo's waist and asked, "What do you think?"
"Oh!" Xuan Mo suddenly realized, and changed the subject. "You're representing Barak College this time?"
"Yes!" At the mention of "Barak College," the smile on Jin Sanqian's face slowly faded, replaced by uncontrollable anger and grief.
"What's wrong with you?"
Xuan Mo, noticing Jin Sanqian's change of mood, glanced at Welda.
"Welda, what's going on?"
Welda sighed.
Then, with Jin Sanqian's consent, he told Xuan Mo everything.
"The Barak royal family has gone too far!"
Following Oscar's words, Jin Sanqian could no longer suppress his rage. He slammed his fist on the table, nearly smashing it to pieces. "They're killing the donkey after it's done with its work!"
It turned out that just now, after Jin Sanqian's description, Xuan Mo and the others had learned that the Barak royal family had begun targeting Jin Sanqian's family, targeting their property.
After listening to Jin Sanqian's words, Xuan Mo fell into deep thought. Clearly, the Barak royal family's actions were fraught with anomalies, yet he couldn't articulate them. It was as if they were preparing for something.
Then, Wilda glanced at the sky and reminded Jin Sanqian, "Sanqian, it's time. We have to leave."
Xuan Mo snapped back to his senses. "Leaving now?"
"Ah! Isn't that the captain's rule?"
Jin Sanqian stood up, picked up his glass, and emptied it. "Mozi, we'll see you at the promotion tournament."
"Take care, you two."
Xuan Mo said, his eyes gleaming as he watched Jin Sanqian and Wilda depart.
With his current situation and connections, perhaps he could eventually coax Jin Sanqian and Wilda into Shrek Academy.
"Mozi, we should be leaving soon..."
