The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

543: Whereabouts Leaked

“I. . . ” Wan Wan lowered her head aggrieved.
Such important news, and it concerned Ning Bi’s parents.
How sad would Ning Bi be if she found out her parents were killed after the fact? How huge would her self blame be?

Wan Wan hadn’t done anything wrong.
Everything she’d done was for Ning Bi’s sake.
And yet her brother blamed her for telling Ning Bi.
Wan Wan was sad and it was most wronged she ever felt.
Her brother had changed from when they were little.
He used to fight other people for her but now the only person he had in his heart was Ning Bi.
He didn’t care what she thought anymore.

Ning Bi woke up after drinking the potion.
She immediately burst into tears.

“How could this happen?! How could they implicate my family?!”

How could she not have feelings for her parents? Even if the boys weren’t technically her biological brothers, they had grown up together and were as close cousins.
She loved them as family.
If she didn’t care about them, she wouldn’t have looked so far out for her sacrifices.

“Ning Bi, what’s going on? I heard people say you hurt the Qui’s family young miss.
That person couldn’t be Qui Ruoshui right? I remember you said you and her have been friends since you were little.
Why? Why would the Qui family suddenly attack you?”

This was a sticking point Wan Wan couldn’t figure out.
Although the Qui family and Ning family weren’t friends, Qui Ruoshui and Ning Bi were very good friends.
It was incomprehensible to her how the two families became entangled in a death feud.

’

“I don’t know! Don’t ask! I don’t know anything!” Ning Bi cried brokenheartedly.

Wan Cheng was so distressed by her pitiful appearance that he became even more dissatisfied with his sister.

“You’ve said enough Wan Wan! Ning Bi is already so sad; I don’t want you to provoke her anymore!”

Wan Cheng glared at Wan Wan resentfully.

Wan Wan shut up and didn’t say anything more.
She obviously had good intentions, why did her brother say she was deliberately provoking Ning Bi? Although she felt uncomfortable, there were questions she still needed to ask.
“Ning Bi, I know you’re very sad right now, but do you want to go and save your family?”

“Wan Wan! Didn’t I tell you to stop asking questions? Do you want Ning Bi to die? The Qui family made it clear they’re targeting Ning Bi.
If Ning Bi appeared there, wouldn’t she fall right into their hands? At that time, never mind Ning Bi’s family, even Ning Bi wouldn’t be safe!” Wan Cheng’s eyes were ugly when he yelled at her.

In Wan Cheng’s mind, Ning Bi’s life was more important than the entire Ning family.
It was clear the Qui family were using her family as bait to lure her out.
How could he let her be stupid and fall into their trap?

’

Wan Wan stopped talking and quietly stood to the side.
She thought Ning Bi would say something, she had to have something to say, whether she wanted go rescue her family herself or not.
Wan Wan never expected Ning Bi to break out in tears.
It was clear Ning Bi had no intention of saving her family.

Wan Wan was shocked.
Was this Ning Bi? The Ning Bi who was so kind she couldn’t kill an ant? Her parents were in danger and all she wanted to do was cry.
She wasn’t even thinking of ways to rescue them.
Even if she didn’t go herself, she could have begged Wan Cheng to go and rescue them.

With his infatuation for Ning Bi, Wan Wan was sure he would try to do something.

But Ning Bi didn’t say she would go nor did she ask anyone for help.
All she did was cry.

Before, those big tears that would have distressed Wan Wan, but now, the tears made a chill creep into her heart.

“By the way, I ran into Chief Gan at the foot of the mountain.” Wan Wan said lightly.
She had mixed feelings in her heart.

“What?! You. . .  you didn’t tell him I was here did you?” Ning Bi asked cautiously.

Wan Wan shook her head.
“No, I dismissed him without saying anything.”

’

“We can’t stay here.
We have to leave.
We have to leave right now!” Ning Bi pushed Wan Cheng’s hand off her shoulder, intending to walk down the mountain.

“Ning Bi, what’s wrong with you?” Wan Cheng had never seen her like this before.
He was both worried and frightened.

The siblings were confused by her sudden change in behavior but they quickly caught up to her.

“Master Wan, thank you for leading the way,” said a cold voice.

“You’re being too polite Old Master Qui.
This is what we should do.”

The head of the Wan family had a servile expression on his face as he stood next to Old Master Qui.

“Father, how could you bring people from the Qui family here?!” Wan Cheng looked at his father in surprise and anger.
Why did his father betray them even though his father knew how he felt for Ning Bi.

’

“How did you find me?! Xiao Wan, was it you?! Did you tell?!” Ning Bi’s face was filled with resentment and she glared at Wan Wan with poison in her eyes.

Wan Wan felt a chill in her heart.
Was this really Ning Bi?

Wan Cheng was suspicious of Wan Wan as well.
Of the three of them, only Wan Wan had left the group.
Plus she had admitted to meeting Chief Gan.
She had to be the one who leaked Ning Bi's location.

“Xiao Wan, I know you’ve always coveted Ning Bi’s fiancé, but he’s dead now.
Why do you want to ruin Ning Bi?! Why are you so vicious?!” Wan Cheng yelled angrily at Wan Wan.

The Wan family head was instantly enraged when he heard his son yelling at Wan Wan over a vicious woman like Ning Bi.
If Gan Jui hadn’t discovered the clue, the whole Wan family would have been dragged to hell by this daughter and son pair.

The big families who lost daughters had a lot of pent up frustration and they needed to vent it on someone.
If their Wan family helped Ning Bi today, then they would suffer like the Ning family tomorrow.

“You rebellious son! You still have the nerve to scold your sister?! Let me tell you, this matter has nothing to do with your sister! It was all discovered by Gan Jui.
He secretly followed her all the way here, otherwise I wouldn’t have discovered you’d done such a thing!”

Master Wan’s face had turned pale from fright when Gan first reported to him.
The thing with the Ning Bi girl was too big and now everyone was avoiding it.
The only family foolish enough to get involved was his.
Wasn’t this just trying harm the entire Wan family?!
