Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder in the Entertainment Circle

Chapter 248 - 248 247 There is No Way Back

?Chapter 248: Chapter 247: There is No Way Back Chapter 248: Chapter 247: There is No Way Back The way they acted, it was no wonder Huo Rui had taken the initiative to clear things up in the car.

Huo Rui was quite unhappy; with a cold expression, he said, “Master Luo is the one who saved my brother, and if you don’t believe that, we can just leave.”

If it weren’t for his girlfriend, he would never have asked Luo Ning to come and help.

This family really lacked propriety.

Seeing his displeasure, Granny Yu finally managed a forced smile and said, “How could we not believe? It’s just that Master Luo is so young, we were a bit surprised.”

Though still skeptical, with everyone already there, they couldn’t very well disrespect Huo Rui.

She pulled a somewhat reluctant smile and said to Luo Ning, “Well then, Master Luo, please come and take a look at my grandson’s condition.”

Luo Ning was indifferent to her attitude, knowing today’s business was unlikely to succeed.

She wore a look of indifference and simply nodded without speaking.

Then, she walked over to examine the lying Yu Fei.

Yu Fei was awake at that moment, and a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes upon seeing Luo Ning.

But feeling so uncomfortable all over, he wasn’t in the mood to appreciate a beautiful woman.

Seeing how young Luo Ning was, he also doubted her abilities.

However, due to his intense discomfort, he adopted a desperate “try anything” attitude.

He was the first to ask, “Master, what do you think is wrong with me?”

Luo Ning took one look and had a rough idea of his condition.

“Just a moment.”

Instead of answering Yu Fei, she took a homemade incense stick from her bag and lit it.

The Yu family members were baffled by her actions, but they held back their doubt out of respect for Huo Rui’s presence.

A few minutes later, Yu Fei suddenly screamed, “Ah, my stomach hurts, it hurts so much!”

Then everyone present saw his belly bulging unnaturally, as if something was about to burst out.

Seeing her grandson like this, Granny Yu was heartbroken. “My Feifei, what’s happened to you?”

She then looked at Luo Ning with displeasure and asked, “Did you do this?”

Luo Ning extinguished the incense in her hand. “Yes, I did.”

“I figured out what his problem was and wanted to confirm it, so I did that.”

If it weren’t for respecting Huo Rui, she wouldn’t have bothered explaining.

Granny Yu, still half-doubting, asked, “Then what exactly is wrong with my grandson?”

Luo Ning replied truthfully, “Your grandson is suffering from the Gu Poison of the Southern Border. After returning here, the Gu Poison reacted, which caused red spots all over his body and his belly to bulge because of the Gu Worm.”

The Yu family was shocked. “What, Gu Poison?”

Yu Fei’s mother was especially incredulous, rolling her eyes, obviously not believing Luo Ning’s words. “Do you think this is a TV drama?”

But Yu Fei, clutching his stomach, widened his eyes, “No, she might be telling the truth.”

“Master, do I really have Gu Poison?” he asked Luo Ning, enduring the pain.

Luo Ning answered coldly, “Yes, you are indeed afflicted with Gu Poison.”

Changing her tone, she asked, “The person who poisoned you with the Gu, was she a woman from the Southern Border? Did she also curse you?”

Yu Fei’s face changed before he spoke with hatred, “Yes, that despicable woman did curse me.”

“Saying that once I returned, my skin would rot, my gut would burst, and I would die a terrible death.”

At the time, he just thought it was ridiculous, didn’t believe it at all, and didn’t take it seriously.

Who knew that after coming back, abnormalities indeed appeared on his skin, and his abdomen weirdly protruded? That’s when he began to fear it really was that woman’s doing.

But that woman was already dead, and he couldn’t find her to ask or to help him rid of the affliction.

Unexpectedly, this beautiful girl could actually see through it.

He hurriedly said, “Master Luo, since you can see it, do you have a way to cure my ailment?”

Luo Ning shook her head. “Your ailment is beyond my help, and I will not intervene.”

“Why? I know you can definitely do it; why won’t you intervene?”

Yu Fei hadn’t expected this woman to refuse. “Is it the money? Just cure my disease, and you can name your price, our family will certainly pay.”

Granny Yu and others also thought Luo Ning was just driving a hard bargain. Although extremely annoyed, they couldn’t help but nod.

“Yes, as long as you can cure Feifei, you name the price, we will pay.”

Luo Ning looked at Yu Fei with a coldness in her eyes, “This is karma.”

She wouldn’t lend a hand to someone who deserved punishment.

“That Southern Border woman who inflicted you with Poisonous Insect Poison and a curse was forced by you to ruin her chastity and was killed, her body thrown to the wolves on a mountain.”

“You must take responsibility for your actions, no one can save you.”

This Yu Fei was not a good person, his actions were both disgusting and cruel.

Hearing Luo Ning put it this way, Yu Fei’s face changed again.

He was utterly horrified, having not anticipated that Luo Ning would directly reveal his secret.

He had gone with friends to a remote village in the south, and one boring day decided to hike the mountain alone.

But at a river on the mountain, he saw a woman with a graceful figure washing her hair – his lust surged.

He advanced to pursue her, and when she refused, in the heat of the moment, he raped her.

Unexpectedly, she was fiery-spirited, suddenly pounced on him, scratching his face with her fingernails, then cursed him vehemently before deliberately smashing her head against a rock to kill herself.

Afraid of being discovered, he moved her body to a more secluded side of the mountain, having heard from villagers that wolves roamed that area.

Afterward, he acted as if nothing happened, not daring to flee immediately to avoid suspicion, he waited until the next day to escape.

But he told no one of the incident.

So, Luo Ning’s ability to discern this proved she truly was a skilled master.

Unable to hold back, he suddenly stood up and knelt on the bed, “Master Luo, I didn’t mean to do it, please, save me.”

“It wasn’t I who killed her; she killed herself,” he thought inconsequentially, though his expression was full of repentance.

At this, others in the room were shocked, clearly not expecting him to have done such a thing.

Huo Rui’s face turned even darker and very cold.

He had only known his girlfriend’s cousin to be unruly and somewhat lecherous.

But he hadn’t expected him to audaciously do something like this.

Why else would the girl commit suicide if not because her dignity was destroyed?

At that moment, he sorely regretted inviting Luo Ning himself.

Yu Wen’s face also turned pale, clearly not expecting her cousin to act in such a way.

She cautiously glanced at Huo Rui, noticing his displeasured face, and her heart skipped a beat.

But what could she do? He was her blood-related cousin; she couldn’t just watch him die.

She pursed her lips and asked, “Master Luo, in that case, how should we deal with my cousin’s situation?”

“It can’t be dealt with,” Luo Ning coldly shook her head, “There’s no remedy for regret in this world, and some mistakes, once made, have no way back.”
