“Ah…
I’m sorry.
You just looked so handsome, little brother, that I got a little carried away.” Tang Yuehua spoke through gritted teeth.
Especially when she said the word “handsome,” her tone became noticeably heavier.
As expected of a woman capable of navigating among all the various factions in the Heaven Dou Empire.
She certainly knew how to talk.
“I think so too!” Being praised so directly by such a mature beauty, Ning Wen clearly couldn’t handle it.
He immediately became a little smug and replied instinctively.
The moment those words came out, everyone present was speechless.
Ning Wen quickly realized his mistake as well, and his face flushed slightly.
[Hmph.
You seductive vixen.
That kind of trick might work on virgins who aren’t exactly popular with women, but you actually think you can seduce me with it?
Dream on!] [Still, since you’re the only woman here who recognized my handsomeness, I’ll give you some face.] Ning Wen: “…” As expected of you.
You can turn anything into an opportunity to show off.
And are you even a man?
How could you feel absolutely nothing toward a mature big sister like this?
[What a joke.
In my lifetime, I’ve seen countless women.
I don’t even know how many goddesses of every style I’ve met in the God Realm!] [What could a woman like this possibly compare to?] [If I weren’t trying to disgust the father-and-son pair Tang Hao and Tang San, I wouldn’t even bother paying attention to her.] Tang Yuehua maintained a gentle smile on her face, but inwardly she was speechless.
Was this little brat a little too narcissistic?
Tang Yuehua had never doubted her own charm.
But she had never imagined that someone could actually look down on her.
“Since that’s the case, Sect Master Ning, the lessons will officially begin tomorrow morning.” Tang Yuehua smoothly changed the subject.
She stopped staring at Ning Wen and turned her gaze back toward Ning Rongrong, speaking softly.
“I will be very strict.
Please be mentally prepared.
Unless there is a special reason, you are not allowed to take leave.” “That is exactly what I had in mind.” Ning Fengzhi nodded, a trace of determination flashing through his eyes.
Then he dropped a bombshell.
“How about twelve hours of study every day?” The moment she heard this, Ning Rongrong’s entire body stiffened.
The delicious food in her mouth suddenly lost all its appeal.
She hadn’t expected her father to actually adopt that bastard’s suggestion.
Twelve hours!
Was he trying to work her to death?!
Ning Rongrong was just about to make one final attempt to resist when she happened to meet Ning Fengzhi’s stern gaze.
Every word she wanted to say immediately got stuck in her throat.
A voice filled with delight, mockery, and schadenfreude echoed through everyone’s minds without restraint.
[Hahahahahaha!!!!] [Now that’s more like it!] [It should have been this way from the beginning!
This little witch has been spoiled rotten since childhood, completely lawless and accustomed to throwing her weight around!] [A twelve-hour study schedule?
Perfect!
Ning Fengzhi, I support you!] [Keep grinding!
Grind her into the ground!
Better yet, make it year-round with no days off!
Completely beat that princess syndrome out of her!] [In my previous life, you acted however you pleased.
In this life, I’ll let you experience a little of the suffering of the mortal world.
Hehehe…] Tang Yuehua stood there completely stunned.
She had never expected Ning Fengzhi to be this ruthless—to make a child study twelve hours a day.
One had to know that Tang Yuehua was known as a devilish teacher at Moon Pavilion.
She demanded almost perfection when it came to etiquette.
Twelve hours of study every day?
How was that learning etiquette?
That was practically torture!
And this little brat was actually gloating about it!
Meanwhile, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s two guardian Douluo, the famous Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, merely looked as though they had seen nothing unusual.
Tang Yuehua was becoming increasingly unable to understand the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
“Sect Master Ning, the key to learning etiquette is gradual progress, with an appropriate balance between effort and rest.” Tang Yuehua quickly recovered and thought for a moment before saying, “Four hours is already more than enough.” The cold and dissatisfied voice sounded once again.
[Mind your own business!] [How could four hours possibly be enough?
At the very least, it has to be twelve hours.
Only then can my hatred be appeased!] Tang Yuehua: “…” Just how deep was this grudge?!
Was there really any need to go this far?
She was only a little girl.
Wait.
The owner of this voice seemed to be a little brat himself.
For some reason, that suddenly made everything feel more reasonable.
“Madam Yue is right.
I was being too hasty.” After pondering for a moment, Ning Fengzhi slowly said, “In that case, four hours of etiquette training every day.” Ning Rongrong’s eyes immediately lit up.
A huge weight lifted from her heart, and she looked at Tang Yuehua with gratitude.
Wonderful!
She wouldn’t have to suffer through it all day!
And this teacher seemed pretty good.
Only four hours a day.
Surely that would pass quickly.
With the old Ning Rongrong, forget four hours—she would have considered even one hour too much.
It could only be said that comparison truly made all the difference.
With a twelve-hour hellish schedule hanging over her head, four hours already felt like an enormous blessing in Ning Rongrong’s eyes.
However, Ning Fengzhi’s next sentence instantly plunged her into despair.
“The remaining eight hours will be devoted entirely to martial soul theory and cultivation.” The moment his words fell, the entire hall became terrifyingly silent.
The delight on Ning Rongrong’s face visibly transformed into despair.
Daily cultivation was one thing!
But she also had to study those dry, boring theories about martial souls?!
That was even worse than spending the entire day learning etiquette!
After all, there were only so many etiquette lessons.
Given enough time, she could eventually learn them all.
But martial soul theory was vast and complicated.
Who knew how many years it would take to finish studying it?!
[Hahaha!
Perfect!
This compromise is extremely satisfactory!] [As expected of Ning Fengzhi.
You know how to handle things!] [Etiquette torture in the morning, theoretical brainwashing in the afternoon.
All that’s missing is soul power grinding at night!] [A perfect closed loop.
Don’t even think about slacking off!] [Stupid woman, enjoy your hellish childhood!
Hehehe…] [In my previous life, you embarrassed me.
In this life, I’ll make sure you’re arranged properly from top to bottom!] “…” Ning Wen rolled his eyes.
Arranged properly?
This was clearly all Ning Fengzhi’s arrangement.
What did it have to do with you?
Then again, Ning Rongrong really was pitiful.
Studying from morning until night, almost exactly like his high school life!
The only difference was that Ning Rongrong didn’t have as much pressure.
She didn’t have to worry about competing against countless students in the college entrance examination.
But the problem was that Ning Rongrong was still too young.
Thinking about it this way, Ning Fengzhi really was being a little too harsh as a father.
Yet the original story had never mentioned Ning Fengzhi being this strict.
Otherwise, Ning Rongrong wouldn’t have developed such a princess syndrome when she first appeared!
Could this be another butterfly effect caused by his arrival?
Even after all this, the voice pack still wasn’t satisfied!
It actually wanted Ning Rongrong to stop sleeping at night and cultivate her soul power all night.
Ning Wen once again confirmed something.
This voice pack was absolutely a capitalist!
