Chapter 391 -390: Is It Too Late for Him to Regret Now?
Lei Lifei returned to the reception room.
He looked at the Snake King wrapped around Luo Ning’s wrist with a somewhat resentful gaze.
Feeling uncomfortable under his stare, the Snake King hissed a few warnings.
Only then did Lei Lifei withdraw his gaze and, with a look of heartache, said to Luo Ning, “Fine, take the Snake King with you.”
Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, “Just like that, you’re letting me take it?”
Lei Lifei glared at her irritably, “What else do you want?”
Luo Ning could see Lei Lifei’s heartache, but indeed, he had truly handed over the Snake King.
From her contact with Lei Qiu to her arrival at the Lei Family and then meeting Lei Lifei, her impression of the Lei Family had been completely overturned.
It was nothing like the Lei Family she had imagined.
Furthermore, the act of just handing over the Snake King also took her by surprise.
It had to be said, from the clan elders to the seniors, and even the younger generation, the Lei Family seemed quite open-minded.
Luo Ning smiled, “Then thank you.”
Lei Lifei no longer wanted to see Luo Ning, “I’ll have someone send you off the island in a bit.”
Luo Ning blinked, “Isn’t that a bit too quick? Lei Qiu invited us to visit the Lei Family, and we wanted to stay and play for a couple more days.”
Lei Lifei’s eyes widened, “You’ve already snatched the Snake King, what more do you want? There isn’t anything else worth taking in the Lei Family.”
Don’t think he didn’t know; although the Lou Family Patriarch had instructed not to speak of it, his people still found out that Ranran had colluded with Luo Ning to swindle a lot of good things from the Lou Family.
That top-grade vermillion—he had wanted it himself; last time tricking the Lou Family Master didn’t work, yet Luo Ning had won it.
No, his heart ached again.
Luo Ning innocently responded, “I just wanted to visit the Lei Family, I didn’t mean anything else!”
“Besides, aren’t you still my uncle? I just came to visit relatives.”
Lei Lifei felt a headache coming on, “You truly are Luo Yicheng’s daughter; both of you have equally thick skins.”
Luo Ning chuckled, “Thank you for the compliment, Uncle!”
Lei Lifei: “…” What kind of bad luck had he encountered to meet such a troublesome father and daughter.
“Don’t you have other things to do? Aren’t you going to visit the Luo Family and see your dad?” Please just go.
Luo Ning shook her head, “No, the Luo Family isn’t fun, and if I went, they surely wouldn’t let me see my dad.”
Lei Lifei hurriedly said, “The Lei Family isn’t fun either!”
Luo Ning sighed, looking somewhat sympathetically at Lei Lifei.
Feeling uneasy under her gaze, Lei Lifei asked, “What else do you want?”
“I had a conversation with Lei Qiu before, and I made him confirm it before coming to the Lei Family,” Luo Ning said.
Lei Lifei had a bad feeling, “What did you say?”
“It’s easy to invite a god but hard to send one away; are you sure you want us to visit the Lei Family?”
Luo Ning paused and then continued, “He nodded very confidently and firmly replied, Yes, we want to invite you.”
Lei Qiu, standing beside them like a backdrop, widened his eyes in disbelief at Luo Ning.
This woman had just thrown him under the bus, utterly shameless.
Couldn’t he see his father was nearly ready to kill him?
No wonder it’s said that women and villains are difficult to raise; the ancients did not deceive me.
Lei Lifei realized Luo Ning was planning to freeload at the Lei Family, and he couldn’t help but glare at the cringing Lei Qiu.
This little troublemaker really knew how to cause problems.

“So, what will it take for you to leave?” Lei Lifei asked.
Luo Ning hadn’t spoken yet when Luo Ranran brightly said, “We’d like to spar with the elders of the Lei Family.”
She knew they’d definitely be blacklisted from visiting the island by the Lei Family, so it was better to grab some benefits before leaving this time.
Luo Ning smiled warmly, “Yes, I came to visit the island this time to engage and spar with the elders from various families to improve myself.”
Lei Lifei wanted to chuckle, “Do you still need to improve yourself?”
“Of course, as long as I haven’t reached the Heavenly Human Unity Realm, sparring and interacting are beneficial to me,” Luo Ning nodded.
She was speaking the truth.
After all, she had reached the Heavenly Human Unity Realm in Little World before, but that wasn’t her real body, and the Power of the World was different.
Now, to reach Heavenly Human Unity, apart from experience, she needed to constantly seek breakthroughs, and sparring was a good method.
Having sparred at the Lou Family for two days, she had indeed made progress.
Lei Lifei felt like kneeling; these two girls sure knew how to play the game, improving themselves through sparring and taking some goodies along the way—he was tempted to join…
Lei Lifei’s thoughts twisted and turned, but he remained silent.
Luo Ning added, “Uncle, think about it, this benefits not just us but the elders and the younger generation of the Lei Family as well.”
“By sparring together, everyone progresses, and it can show some of the more proud people that there are always others out there who are better.”
Lei Lifei saw Luo Ning’s sincere expression and thought, I don’t trust you one bit.
But he had to admit, what Luo Ning said made sense.
There were indeed many in his family who were too proud, thinking that as members of the Gufengshui Family, their status and strength could easily crush any other Feng Shui Mages out there, becoming more and more isolated.
Luo Ning really knew how to hit where it hurt.
And he did have confidence in several of the elders in the family; if they won the battle against Luo Ning, they could not only take the good items from her but also gain some prestige.
Then, when he saw the Lou Family Patriarch, he could properly mock and tease him.
“Alright then, you two can stay as guests for two more days.”
Luo Ning lightly laughed, “Thank you, Uncle!”
Lei Lifei awkwardly said, “Maybe stop calling me ‘Uncle,’ it feels a bit creepy.”
Luo Ning smiled, “You haven’t done anything wrong, why be afraid of feeling creepy?”
“Heh, I’m your worthless uncle, bullying your aunt and cousin, forcing them to go back to their maternal home,” Lei Lifei joked self-deprecatingly.
Luo Ning turned to Luo Ranran, “I want to speak with him alone for a moment.”
Luo Ranran caught on to the hint about the ‘worthless uncle’ possibly hiding something deeper.
She tactfully stood up, “I’ll go for a walk.”
She even dragged the curious Lei Qiu along, turning both his face and ears red; this woman was shamelessly pulling him around.
Lei Lifei raised an eyebrow, “What do you want to talk about?”
Luo Ning didn’t beat around the bush and bluntly asked, “Are you my cousin’s real dad?”
Lei Lifei’s heart skipped, countering, “Nonsense, if I’m not her real dad, then who is?”
“But your face readings show that you two aren’t biological,” Luo Ning revealed her surprise when she first saw Lei Lifei.
Moreover, from her interactions, Lei Lifei didn’t seem like the despicable type.
Actually, he seemed quite decent, with a broad and open-minded nature.
Lei Lifei was surprised, “You can read my face?”
His face had been specially treated, and even the clan elders skilled in Face Reading couldn’t tell.
This only meant that Luo Ning’s abilities had surpassed those elders.
He suddenly regretted allowing Luo Ning to stay and spar.
Spar, my foot; who knows how much they would manage to take this time. He would be at a huge loss.
Was it too late to change his mind now?
