Hu Shaoan's status was valuable. If he really died and the cousin was traced later, Hu Shaoan's parents would definitely take revenge regardless of their relative status.
But what if he lives but his reputation is tarnished and he becomes a shame to the Hu family?
Even if Hu Shaoan like this goes back, he can't even think about competing with his cousin again. Even if he knows that he was harmed like this, there is nothing he can do, because this experience is too disgraceful and cannot be ignored.
And Hu Shaoan was sold to Luo Yucheng. No one would find out for a while, and the Hu family couldn't find it.
This period of time is enough for Hu Shaoan to sink and fall into the quagmire with no one to save him.
When enough time has passed, the cousin can even take the initiative to release clues to guide the Hu family to find him, and even do so with great fanfare.
By then everyone will know that Hu Shaoan became the husband of a brothel and slept with many men and women...
From this point of view, even Zui Feng Tower has become a chess piece in others' hands.
Hu Shaoan had never thought about this before, but now the more he thought about it, the more his face became paler.
"Cousin, why...we grew up together and have a good relationship." He murmured, "No, I want to go back and ask him personally!"
"Don't be stupid." Ning Zhishui rolled his eyes, "You have no evidence, how can you accuse him? Instead, he can accuse you of spitting blood regardless of brotherhood."
"Then what should I do?" Hu Shaoan sniffed, full of frustration.
No wonder his mother often said that he was naive and knew that the world was dangerous and needed more experience.
Hu Shaoan also felt aggrieved. He obviously listened to his mother's words and actively went out to practice, but how could he know that he had experienced loneliness.
Does innocence really have anything to do with more experience? Or is it that what should be practiced is not cultivation, but something else?
"What you need to do most is to find evidence, improve yourself, and then go home and take back everything that belongs to you from that cousin." Ning Zhishui said calmly, "It's not suitable for you to go back now. When you are at home, you That cousin can only hide his capabilities and bide his time, always looking down on you. Only when you are not around can he stand out and act in a flamboyant way."
Hu Shaoan was stunned and looked up at her.
"Let him show his fox tail first, and then you can bring out the evidence, which will prevent him from getting over again." Ning Zhishui smiled, put down the arm supporting his chin, and moved closer to him, "How are you, little one? Brother, do you want to learn from your sister?"
Hu Shaoan blushed, then nodded, "Yes."
Ning Zhishui laughed again, "You are really naive. You just believe what others say. Aren't you afraid that I will betray you again?"
Hu Shaoan shook his head, "No, if you want to sell me, why bother telling me so much."
Ning Zhishui glanced at him speechlessly, angry and funny, "You must be stupid, you are lucky. If you are sincere enough, the mountains and rivers will come naturally."
Hu Shaoan didn't know what she was talking about, but he asked: "Can I send a message to my family? My parents must be very worried about me. I want to report that I am safe."
"The time they were most worried about has passed. It doesn't matter if they wait a little longer." Ning Zhishui shook his head.
Hu Shaoan didn't have any evidence, and everything was based on speculation. In this case, his parents might not believe it if he said everything was arranged by his cousin.
If they don't believe it and fail to hide it, the secret might be exposed in front of the scheming cousin.
Therefore, you can either wait for a while and wait until your cousin shows his fox tail before telling his parents. By then, they will have seen it and believe it and they will definitely believe it.
Or, just wait until you get the evidence and go home directly to reveal your cousin's true face in public.
Either way, it will take some time, and you can't just rush it now.
Hu Shaoan felt that what Ning Zhishui said made sense, so he agreed after a moment of hesitation.
"Then what should I do next?" he asked, "I don't want to stay in Zuifeng Tower anymore."
"Keep him here for now, ask some questions for me, and pick you up in two days." Ning Zhishui called him over and told him some things.
Hu Shaoan listened and then nodded, "Okay, I have written down all these and will inquire for you. But my cultivation needs to be restored. I am so scared now."
"I know, I'll give you the antidote tomorrow."
Ning Zhishui hummed.
Hu Shaoan took the Jieling Pill, which was also quite harmful.
In the early stage of taking it, it will only block spiritual energy and cultivation level. However, if you still do not take the antidote within three months, your cultivation level will never come back.
So according to the cousin's plan, Hu Shaoan should be prepared to stay in Zuifeng Tower for three months. This time is enough to destroy his cultivation and his reputation.
After finding the person three months later, everything was helpless, and Hu Shaoan would no longer be the hope of the Hu family.
After Ning Zhishui and Hu Shaoan finished speaking, they walked downstairs.
Ning Zhishui wanted to go home, while Hu Shaoan wanted to go back to his residence.
Ning Zhishui had just told Guanshi Cao that Hu Shaoan would not have to worry about receiving guests from now on, and he would just let him learn some singing and dancing for the time being.
Manager Cao probably thought that Ning Zhishui really fell in love with Hu Shaoan, so he agreed readily and at the same time gave Hu Shaoan an unclear look.
"Be good these days and don't cause trouble. There are many guests here you can't afford to offend, and of course I can't afford to offend them either." Ning Zhishui said to Hu Shaoan when he went downstairs.
Hu Shaoan blinked, "Are there people that the host can't afford to offend?"
"That's natural. Who am I? There are many people who are better than me." Ning Zhishui answered casually.
Compared with her cultivation level, she is far behind.
Compared with family background and power, she is nothing.
Compared to her reputation, it was still a small thing. What everyone was optimistic about was only her future value, not the present.
If she really met those big shots, Ning Zhishui couldn't afford to offend any of them, and she knew this very well.
"Oh... I will be good and won't cause trouble for you."
Hu Shaoan nodded obediently.
Ning Zhishui was very pleased.
While the two were talking, Ning Zhishui didn't pay attention to her side. When a group of guests walked past, one of them bumped into her because of his excessive movement. Ning Zhishui Leng might as well have lost her footing and almost fell down.
She reacted quickly and hurriedly pulled the handrail of the ladder next to her to stabilize her body. Unexpectedly, a hand was firmly holding her elbow at this time, and with a little force, she was pushed back to the steps. superior.
"Thank you...huh?"
As soon as Ning Zhishui raised his head, he met a pair of obviously surprised eyes.
Dongfang Jing was dressed in a moon-white robe, holding a green flute in his hand. His dark hair was tied up casually, with a few strands of hair scattered around his forehead, giving him a more unruly sense of leisure.
"Dongfangjing? Are you here to have fun too?"
Ning Zhishui stood up straight, smiled and asked.
After she finished speaking, she saw a crack in Dongfang Jing's expression.
