Chapter 959: The Unlikable Future Son-in-law
Han Jing is not a very emotional person. On the contrary, the cold-bloodedness and rationality etched into her bones are instincts formed from years of being an assassin in the past. So, many times, she appears very enthusiastic and generous, even trusting others naively. But in reality, she is always very clear about what she is doing and the kind of people she is dealing with.
Only when facing someone she trusts or is willing to trust, does she seem emotional and endearing.
Han Jing is willing to trust Ling Xiang.
On the journey with the Xia Clan, Ling Xiang is able to set aside the feud between previous generations and firmly stand on the side he thinks is right. Even when everyone was anxious and worried about Su Yu’s life and had forgotten Han Qingjue, he was able to step in to save him, indicating that he is an upright and kind person.
Such a person is worth befriending.
Lian Xichen was taken aback for a moment, nodded, and said, "You’re right, the grudges of the previous generations have indeed passed."
He has always harbored resentment regarding his adoptive father’s death, which initially caused his prejudice against Han Jing. However, after spending time together, he realized that Han Jing is truly a wonderful girl. Even without all the connections, she is still a friend worth trusting and befriending.
So she is correct; one shouldn’t continually punish the undeserving with others’ mistakes.
In this regard, he truly falls short compared to her.
"Oh, by the way, look at me, I’ve forgotten again. There’s something I forgot to ask Lianwu!" Han Jing smacked her forehead, confused by Lianwu’s aloof demeanor, and forgot to ask him the important matter.
Han Jing waved to Lian Xichen, saying, "Brother, you go ahead and send a message to Ling Xiang, I’ll go talk to Lianwu again."
After finishing speaking, she went back.
Lianwu saw Han Jing returning and, without waiting for her to speak, replied with a chill, "If you think it’s the right time, then take his body along and place it with Shi Qi. His medical expertise is profound, and he may have better methods to preserve the body."
Han Jing...
So he knew she would definitely come back to ask, then why didn’t he tell her directly earlier...
She really—forget it, since this man might become a son-in-law in the future, surely her daughter will handle him; she was speechless.
Han Jing weakly waved her hand, turned around, and left.
Is a son-in-law who can’t please his future mother-in-law really a good son-in-law? She wondered.
After thinking it over, Han Jing decided to take Fengxi’s body along just in case they encounter a suitable moment. When they return, who knows what situation might arise? Since she’s decided to handle this, she will give it her all.
Going to Beihan Palace to retrieve Fengxi’s body won’t take long, probably three to five days to return. Thus, Han Jing did not plan to wait for Su Yu, though she did call Lan Ling and Su Xingqiao to join.
Su Xingqiao has been in the Spirit Cultivation Realm for quite a while without having time to understand its environment. With still a while until they go to the Delusion Void Array, Han Jing plans to take him around.
Even if they go slowly, they’re not pressed for time during these days.
Naturally, Lan Ling and Su Xingqiao were happy to go with her. The three discussed briefly, informed the others, and set off the next day.
