Chapter 3019: Chapter 3004: Changing Faces_1
Seeing Gu Rong's figure disappear, Chen Xin curled his lips, "That old bone sure walked away fast, but Ning Rongrong's situation really is strange—she doesn't cry, make a fuss, or bully other Sect Disciples."
"I wonder if she's been traumatized!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi responded with a darkened face, "Uncle Sword, are you saying that only if she's crying and fussing, that would be Ning Rongrong?"
Chen Xin immediately covered his mouth and coughed, "Feng Zhi, don't slander me. It's just that I think, no matter how much Ning Rongrong has grown, she couldn't possibly have shed her bad habits in such a short time. Could it be that she's just putting on an act?"
If Ning Rongrong's personality could change that easily, she wouldn't be called the little witch by the Sect Disciples!
Ning Fengzhi paused for a moment, then showed a few traces of hesitation, "Regarding this, I'm not very clear either. However, compared to her original behavior, I still believe that Ning Rongrong truly knows her mistakes and has changed sincerely!"
At least, he didn't see any signs of pretense!
Chen Xin propped up his chin, "Is that so? Since you, Feng Zhi, haven't noticed anything unusual about Ning Rongrong, perhaps, after this incident, she really has grown!"
"But I still prefer the old Ning Rongrong. The current her always gives me a feeling of being not quite real."
Ning Fengzhi glanced at him, "That's just because you, Uncle Sword, aren't used to it yet. Ning Rongrong will have to grow up sooner or later. It's not a bad thing that it's happening now!"
Chen Xin didn't want to dwell on such matters, "Well, I can't argue with you, but you really must keep a close eye on Xu Sheng!"
Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly, "Yes, I will!"
Xu Sheng seemed to have a good relationship with the Qing He child. Perhaps, things might not turn out so bad!
...
Meanwhile, Gu Rong also found Ning Rongrong...
At that moment, she was staring blankly at the Sect Disciples in front of her...
When he spoke up to interrupt, "Ning Rongrong, I thought you'd be here."
Hearing his words, Ning Rongrong quickly refocused her gaze and replied with a light laugh, "Bone Grandpa, what brings you here?"
Gu Rong watched her closely, "Of course, I came to see you. Ever since you returned to the sect, there has been a significant change in you!"
Ning Rongrong's delicate frame trembled slightly, and perhaps to ease the awkwardness, she scratched her auburn hair, "No... haven't I always been the same??"
Gu Rong shook his head, "No... I can still see that change quite clearly!"
Her eyes flickered with a trace of desolation, and she forced a smile, "Is that so? Maybe I've grown more than before. I can't always be causing trouble for you and the others!"
How could Gu Rong easily believe this, he asked dubiously, "Is that really the case? Ning Rongrong, if there's something bothering you, you can tell me!"
"Even if it concerns Feng Zhi, I'll stand up for you!"
Ning Rongrong hurriedly explained, "Bone Grandpa, it's got nothing to do with Dad, it's really just me reflecting on what I've done wrong in the past!"
Gu Rong didn't push further but changed the subject, "Then, Ning Rongrong, you were just watching those Sect Disciples, right?"
Ning Rongrong murmured softly, "Mhm!"
With her affirmation, he seemed to understand something...
"Ning Rongrong, why not try talking with them?"
Who knew that Ning Rongrong would immediately respond in a somewhat defeatist tone, "It's no use. The sect's Disciples all hate me. They don't want to talk to me; they even turn away when they see me!"
She was acutely aware of the reasons herself!
Seeing her reaction, Gu Rong reached out and placed his hand on her shoulder, "Ning Rongrong, didn't you say you wanted to change? Why not give it a try?"
"As long as you speak with a gentler tone, I believe everyone will accept you."
Ning Rongrong swallowed nervously, clearly tempted by the suggestion, but still worried, "Bone Grandpa, can I... can I really do this?"
She was still afraid that she would be disliked!
Gu Rong continued to encourage her, "Of course, you can. You're Feng Zhi's daughter; can't you even manage this little thing?"
Ning Rongrong's eyes gradually filled with determination. "Bone Grandpa, I…I can!!"
Having said that, she mustered up her courage and walked towards those Sect Disciples…
Just as she had expected, these Sect Disciples stopped their conversations upon her arrival, ready to leave immediately…
Ning Rongrong clenched her fists and then said, "Wait, about the past, I went a bit too far. I hope everyone can forgive me!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd couldn't help but be stunned…
They had never imagined that the little witch of the sect would take the initiative to apologize!!
Seeing their expressions, Ning Rongrong sighed inwardly, "So, it's still not working?"
However, to her surprise, these Sect Disciples did not leave…
Instead, due to her recent words, they let go of their aversion and began to interact with her like friends…
Watching this scene from afar, Gu Rong nodded in satisfaction…
Able to bend and stretch, that's what Feng Zhi's children are like!!
Soon, the moniker of 'little witch' would be completely erased from Ning Rongrong!
…
Heaven Dou Royal Academy!!
After so many days, Shi Mo and the others had discovered a serious matter…
It was that Dugu Yan seemed to be having mental issues, spending her free time sitting and staring blankly…
Her interactions with her favorite, Yu Tianheng, had also become incredibly cold, as if he were a stranger…
This was far from the impression they had in their minds…
Shi Mo clenched his hands tightly and spoke seriously, "Everyone, you've all noticed, haven't you? Yan Zi's condition is not getting any better; it's becoming even more severe!!
Shi Mo nodded, "Yes, Yan Zi has been so strange lately, even her cultivation has slacked off a lot. As her teammates, we must remind her."
Yu Feng also expressed agreement, "That's right. If Yan Zi continues like this, she might stagnate at this stage!!"
"And then, being kicked out of the team wouldn't be impossible!"
Their team was the future first team of Heaven Dou Royal Academy!
If anyone's strength falls too far behind, they might be expelled, even Dugu Yan, who is Du Gu Bo's granddaughter!!
Yu Tianheng said in a deep voice, "Everyone, Yan Zi's situation can't be that serious, can it?"
Everyone rolled their eyes, clearly recognizing that he was in denial!
Yu Feng couldn't help but say earnestly, "Tian Heng, you should be the most aware of Yan Zi's recent changes!"
"Just letting her be will only harm her. I don't think you want to see Yan Zi kicked out of our team, do you??"
Yu Tianheng wanted to retort but swallowed his words forcefully…
He naturally didn't want Dugu Yan to be expelled from the team. Perhaps, he could no longer pretend not to notice!
