The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1135 - 1104 Temporary Change
Chapter 1135: Chapter 1104 Temporary Change
Xu Canyun let out a sigh of relief and slowly said, "Weiwei, perhaps we shouldn’t seek revenge anymore. Your father has already passed away, and I only have you as a child. You are your father’s only bloodline, I can’t let anything happen to you."
Xu Canyun was originally from Yanjing and knew very well the might of the Huo Family.
Over the years, she had also gradually received news about the Huo Family from her former friends. It could be said that the Huo Family was at its peak, and they simply couldn’t afford to be their enemies.
If they tried, it would undoubtedly be like an egg striking a rock.
She had already lost her husband and did not want to lose her daughter as well.
"Mommy, we may not have the ability to take revenge now, but we can’t forget our hatred," Xu Weiwei said. She had never seen her father since she was young, but her mother had always spoken well of him in front of her, filling her with fantasies about him.
At the same time, Xu Weiwei also wanted to learn the secret techniques. She was worried that if her mother didn’t allow her to seek revenge, perhaps Grandma Ma would no longer teach her the secret techniques.
The supernatural power truly captivated Xu Weiwei.
The feeling of using such means to defeat opponents without them being none the wiser was just too good.
"But..." Xu Canyun hesitated, unsure of how to make the decision.
Seeing Xu Canyun showing signs of regret, Grandma Ma felt somewhat displeased, after all, she had invested a lot of effort in Xu Weiwei, and she already saw Weiwei as her successor, not just the child of a benefactor.
Moreover, the Life-bound Gu insect had already entered Xu Weiwei’s body, so even if there were regrets, it was already too late.
As long as the Gu exists, the person lives; without the Gu, the person no longer exists.
Now, there was no room for regret.
"Mommy, there’s no ’but’." Xu Weiwei said, "I won’t give up on revenge. As long as I live, I will avenge my father. Now that I have Master’s legacy, I naturally have to cultivate diligently."
Upon hearing this, Grandma Ma was very pleased.
As long as Xu Weiwei had no regrets, she could continue to guide her.
If the Life-bound Gu wasn’t in Xu Weiwei’s body, Grandma Ma would not have been so firm. After all, she wasn’t heartless and didn’t want Xu Weiwei to walk down this path.
But now that Xu Weiwei had received the Life-bound Gu, she had no way to find another successor.
"Canyun, since it has started, don’t have regrets," Grandma Ma said, "Doing so will only make one live in hesitation and conflict, and you won’t have peace later in life."
"Yes, Mommy," Xu Weiwei said, "Master is right. An arrow shot cannot be recalled. I no longer have a way out; I can only move forward. But Mommy, rest assured, I will work hard and be careful in the future, and I will certainly not engage in battle without preparation or act recklessly."
Hearing her daughter and Grandma Ma both being so determined, Xu Canyun let out a sigh and said, "Amitabha, may it be well! The two of you should decide for yourselves. I cannot help you; all I can do is pray for you."
Seeing her mother no longer opposed, Xu Weiwei was very happy and said, "Thank you, Mommy. I will surely avenge Dad. The two of you were so in love, even Heaven will help us."
Grandma Ma, relieved, entered her own room and began thinking about how to help her disciple increase her powers.
Xu Weiwei, however, stayed with Xu Canyun, chatting,
trying to cheer her mother up.
In her heart, Xu Weiwei still valued her mother greatly and didn’t want her to worry too much.
Sports City, the competition venue.
Cui Ying was about to approach Grandma Ma when she saw that Grandma Ma had already taken Xu Weiwei by the hand and left from the other side.
Li Xian, although he noticed something was off, did not pay much attention to it after all, the two women had those disgusting insects inside their bodies; the thought was too revolting for him to even want to look.
As for Huo Yingjie, after that pair of sorcerers left, he didn’t bother much about it either.
His reason for coming here was simply to ensure that He Tiantian would not be assassinated on the competition ground, everything else could wait until after the event.
The spectators for today’s competition consisted of not only regular sports enthusiasts but also some of Xiangjiang’s more prestigious figures, who came in support of the athletic endeavor.
This included major families like the Li Family and Pan Family.
The Zhao Family was also among the sponsors of this event, with Zhaoding Xianghui accompanied by her son watching the game from the stands.
This Zhaoding Xianghui was a sensation in Xiangjiang, a mistress who rose in status and managed to drive the legitimate wife and her children out of Xiangjiang. She’s the current head of the Zhao Family.
In her son’s hands, Zhao Zekai, was a pair of binoculars.
"Little Kai, which athlete do you like here?" Zhaoding Xianghui asked, her presence at the competition not solely for spectating.
Zhao Zekai, a seven-year-old boy somewhat introverted and shy, softly replied upon his mother’s inquiry, "I like the Swimming Barbie, she’s really amazing and pretty."
Swimming Barbie?
This is sickening, just an old lady.
Zhaoding Xianghui was about to say something, but suddenly the athletes made their entrance, and the spectators in the stands began to clap their hands, warmly welcoming them.
Zhao Zekai stood up as well and clapped energetically.
Although Zhaoding Xianghui was displeased in her heart, she couldn’t just keep sitting and become the odd one out, so she also joined in clapping.
Amidst the applause from everyone, athletes from Mainland China and Xiangjiang entered and took their places in their respective lanes, preparing for the competition.
He Tiantian was in lane three, slightly shorter in stature compared to the other athletes, but she had good body proportions and firm muscles.
Even with the discomfort in her heart, Zhaoding Xianghui had to admit that heaven had shown favor to He Tiantian, without leaving any traces of the years on her face.
Zhaoding Xianghui touched the corners of her eyes, feeling a sourness there.
Both merely human, yet why did she have to suffer through so many setbacks while He Tiantian led such a charmed life with a good career, and she had to resort to plastic surgery, leaving her hometown to come here?
Despite the luxury she was surrounded by, what she paid in return would become her lifelong nightmare and shame.
Though nobody knows about it now, there are no secrets in this world; apart from herself, heaven and earth are also aware.
Following the crowd, Zhaoding Xianghui sat down and began watching the competition.
Initially, she wanted to hire an assassin to directly target He Tiantian, but if someone fired a gun, even if He Tiantian were killed, it would cause panic. freewebnσvel.cøm
With so many people in the stadium, if a stampede occurred, both she and her son could not escape unscathed.
Later, she contemplated leaving with her son midway through the event but seeing her son’s excited demeanor, she guessed he wouldn’t want to go with her. So Zhaoding Xianghui gestured to a young man not far away.
About three minutes later, the young man signaled to a short staff member nearby, who then left carrying a bottle, yet made no move.
He Tiantian, consider yourself lucky this time.
Son, you don’t know that, because of you, your mother has spared an enemy.
Zhaoding Xianghui did not realize that by choosing not to act, she had narrowly escaped a peril of her own.
