Chapter 87 The Wise Bone Demon

"As you know, she’s 18 this year." Zhao Xin milked the moment. "Do you know what she came to Ninghai to do?"

"Didn’t you say she came to Ninghai to go to university?"

Ding Ning asked with confusion. He attended university at 17 and graduated at 22, one of the younger ones of that graduating year. It was not unusual for Zhao Xin’s younger sister, who was 18, to be starting university.

"She went to her home university in Zhe Province. Oh, right, she also got her master’s from the University of Zhe Province. She has come to Ninghai this time to get her doctorate!" Zhao Xin said glumly.

"What? My God... are you for real? That’s incredible, are you telling me the plot of a sci-fi story? She didn’t start school right from birth, right?"

Ding Ning’s eyes almost popped from his head and he could not hold back his cursing. What an amazing scholar to be getting a doctorate at 18, and to think, he had always thought of himself as a top student. Compared to her, he was just trash.

"I’m for real, absolutely no lies. My sister started elementary at 7, middle school at 10, high school at 11, began university at 14, started her master’s at 17, and this year, at 18, she received her master’s. She got to this level by skipping grades and with our family holding her back, worried that she was too interested in moving forward. Otherwise, she would probably have her doctorate already. Tell me, as her older brother, how can I not feel pressured?"

Zhao Xin spoke bitterly and Ding Ning felt deep sympathy. He could understand how much pressure the older brother of such a sister could feel.

With great feeling, he said, "If people compare themselves to each, they will anger themselves. If objects are compared to each other, they will be thrown away. I don’t dare to take in a person like your sister, I would die of inferiority."

"Don’t be like that. My sister admires no one but you. Ever since she was young, she has always been as proud as a peacock and no one was good enough for her. No matter how handsome a man was, he became like dog shit in her mouth. She only has a good impression of you. Didn’t I say I was going to introduce you to her when you first entered the school? That year, she was thirteen. My sister matured early, she had her menarche at 12 and has always been tormented by dysmenorrhea. We tried countless remedies which all failed. Remember how I asked you for a remedy for dysmenorrhea? That was for her. After using your remedy, she never felt the pain again. From then on, she often called me to ask about you. Recently, you’ve been in the limelight a great deal and my sister immediately called me to ask if that Ding Ning was you. After receiving my confirmation, that girl immediately joined your fan club. Now she’s your biggest fan."

Nervously, Zhao Xin said, "Bro, please, take in this demon. If she remains unmarried, I don’t even dare to go home. You don’t understand the bitterness of being an older brother. Once I’m home, I’m bombarded from all sides. Not only am I sacrificed as a comparison, now they’re also forcing me to date. I stayed in Ninghai after graduation because I wanted things to be out of sight and out of mind but once my sister comes, my good days are at an end. With her intellect, she plays me like a child."

Listening to Zhao Xin’s angry ranting, Ding Ning didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. "What does your sister marrying have to do with you dating?"

"You don’t know about this and I was not purposely keeping it from you but my family is actually a very large family in Zhe Province. The heirs of this generation are me and my sister. My father passed away a long time ago and my mother doesn’t know how to run a business. My grandfather is getting old and he isn’t very well, he won’t be able to last much longer so it is imperative that a new family head is confirmed. However, my family has a tradition that values settling down. If one wants to inherit the position of head of the family, they must marry and have a family. Thus, whoever marries first, me or my sister, is the one who can inherit the family business."

"Then shouldn’t you find a wife and get married quickly so you can be the head?"

Ding Ning asked with confusion, head spinning with what he said.

"I don’t want to be the head. Our family has thousands of people who all depend on the head to earn money to support them. I don’t have the time to serve them. Furthermore, the outside world is filled with such excitement, and there are so many beautiful white cabbages and small cabbages, how can the world have one less cabbage picker like me, then... hehe, you understand what I mean."

Zhao Xin leered vulgarly.

"F*ck your sister, so what you wanted was for me to marry your sister and work for your family? I have no such time for this."

Ding Ning’s nose was livid with rage. Speaking plainly, this rascal didn’t want to shoulder the responsibility and wanted to live freely so he had pushed him into the fire.

"You want to f*ck my sister? Oh, that’s great, let’s get it done and get you married to my sister. Think about how good a deal this is. You get a wife and also end up with a multi-millionaire family fortune; think of how many fewer years you’ll have to work. Besides, with my sister, the family fortune will be like a mere plaything in her hands, and you won’t even need to worry about it. You just have to enjoy life. Let me tell you, my sister is a true beauty, you’ll know once you meet her. If we weren’t siblings, I would want to marry this devil. If we weren’t such good friends, I wouldn’t give you this opportunity. Right, I can get a type of drug, if you really can’t handle my sister, I can help you. First, we’ll drug her and then get everything done..."

A bad friend was a bad friend. Not only was Zhao Xin unconcerned, but he also kept adding fuel to the fire and wore an expression that said, this was all for your own good.

Ding Ning was completely exhausted by this scoundrel’s shamelessness. Other people fought to become the head of their families while this pair of siblings pushed it away desperately.

In order to not be the head of the family, Zhao Xin had even thought of such a plan as to drug his sister. It was truly very strange. Ding Ning was completely speechless and said "Good... bye" with gritted teeth, and then hung up the phone.

"Don’t! Let’s talk for another 50 cents of time. Hello, hello..."

Zhao Xin listened to the blank tone coming from the telephone and laughed darkly. "I don’t believe that you can escape my sister’s grasp. Ever since she was young, she has always gotten what she wanted. Best of luck, hehe!"

Ding Ning switched off his light. He saw that the blank Mercedes was still parked in front of his building but he no longer had any intention of playing a trick. His mind was completely filled with the vampire-killer case Zhao Xin had spoken of.

After setting a trap in the room and hanging a "do not disturb" sign on the door, he silently slipped out with a bag on his back.

He had to go find Bone Demon and Chu Yunna and ask if it was the doing of Chu Yunna. If it was her, he had to give an accounting for the innocent people who died.

Liu Junwei waited for a long time without seeing Ding Ning come out and guessed that he was already asleep. It seemed that there was no opportunity tonight and he drove away gloomily.

Ding Ning came down the stairs and was just in time to see him leave and could not help but be confused. Just what did this guy want?

However, this was good, it saved him having to sneak around his line of sight. He stretched out a hand to wave down a taxi and headed west.

Entering the wooden room still filled with a haunting aura, he made his way easily to the underground cave. When he was still far away, Ding Ning raised his voice and called out, "Uncle Ling, I’m here to see the sickly."

"You are... Ding Ning?"

Like a ghost, Bone Demon appeared in front of Ding Ning and looked at him with suspicion.

"Yes, I am Ding Ning. You must be Uncle Ling, right?"

Ding Ning’s eyes narrowed and he revealed a very approachable smile.

Bone Demon tilted his head and looked at him for a long time, his face filled with suspicion.

"What’s wrong? I am a good friend of Ling Yun, and I’m also her neighbor."

As Ding Ning said this, his heart ached slightly and his expression grew slightly darker.

"Have you had an argument with my daughter?"

Bone Demon suddenly opened his mouth in a smile and a teasing expression appeared on that terrifying face.

"Eh, it’s just a small misunderstanding, nothing major." Ding Ning scratched his head with embarrassment.

"Did Yunxiu say something? Don’t mind her, her words are sharp but her heart is soft. She’s not a bad person, just a bit self-centered. I’ve suffered her temper plenty, in the past."

Fond recollection rose in Bone Demon’s blood-colored eyes. No matter how much of her temper he suffered, he still loved his wife deeply.

"Uncle Ling, I heard from my friend that you have another companion named Chu Yunna, is that right?"

Ding Ning quickly changed the topic, not wanting to linger on this one. At this time, Chu Yunxiu was probably the name he least wanted to hear, right now.

"Ding Ning, I’ve actually known of you for a long time. Haha, I haven’t even thanked you for your care of them these few years."

Bone Demon suddenly said something Ding Ning had not expected, making him utter in amazement. "You know me?"

"Yes, I also know you treated both of them. At the time, I was actually watching from just outside the window but I never found a time to thank you."

Bone Demon spoke sincerely but it made Ding Ning feel very uncomfortable. He had not expected that his actions had long been known to others.

In particular, he remembered when he helped Chu Yunxiu treat her breast cancer. It was unavoidable that her breast had to be bared. Although he had not had any untoward thoughts, for such an alluring scene to be seen by the husband made him feel very uncomfortable.

Seeing Ding Ning’s discomfort, Bone Demon seemed to completely understand. Laughing, he comforted him. "In our eyes, you are just a child. Don’t think too much about it. I support you being with Ling Yun."

Ding Ning scratched his head awkwardly and said, dejectedly, "Ling Yun already has someone she likes."

Bone Demon looked at him steadily for a long time before he sighed and said, "Today is Ling Yun’s birthday, how could I not go to see them? I just came from home and heard some things that you don’t know about. People say that what you hear is false and what you see is true but what I want to tell you is that some of the things you see may not be the truth. Give others a chance and give yourself a chance if you truly like Ling Yun."

Ding Ning was surprised. For the first time, he felt that Bone Demon was not as simple as he appeared. This was a person filled with wisdom and a wealth of experience. The things he said seemed to contain a deeper meaning.

Could he tell that he did not truly love Ling Yun that much and that was why he said all that?

"Uncle Ling, what did you hear?" Ding Ning did not manage to resist his curiosity.

Bone Demon shook his head. "If you want to know, go ask Ling Yun and she will tell you. I won’t add to the mess. Although I support you being with Ling Yun, if you have no confidence in yourself, even if you two manage to be together, you two won’t be happy. I won’t interfere in your affairs and I won’t ask about it."

Ding Ning thought about it. It seemed that Bone Demon had some resentment toward him. Indeed, his behavior tonight had been overly heartless and cold. It was not unusual for Bone Demon, a father, to not approve of such an attitude.

Although he really wanted to know what happened after he left, Bone Demon seemed determined to not say anything so he did not continue asking. "Uncle Ling, should I see to you first or your companion?"

"See to Yunna first, her condition is not very good." Bone Demon turned and led him into the depths of the cave.

Ding Ning’s heart jumped and he asked hesitantly, "She... Can she not resist anymore?

"You must know about the vampire-killer case, right?" Bone Demon asked without turning his head.

"Yes, is Chu Yunna doing it?" Ding Ning asked with difficulty.

"No, if it was Yunna who did it, I wouldn’t have said that her condition wasn’t good."

Bone Demon answered with great certainty and Ding Ning heart unclenched. "That’s good, I was truly afraid that she was unable to resist drinking human blood."
