Nichang's father saw Kirito's calm character. Although he was reluctant to praise him, Nichang's father had to admit that Kirito had a certain level of strength. After all, there were many unexpected situations in the underworld. However, one of the biggest rules in the underworld was to deal with all kinds of changes by remaining unchanged.
When Kirito heard that Nichang's father wanted to test Kirito, he didn't panic or try to escape. Instead, he calmly recovered his strength. This kind of calm attitude gave Nichang's father a different impression of Kirito.
In the next few days, Nichang's father had been observing Kirito's every move. Nichang's father was a smart man. He knew that it was useless to blindly test someone. No matter how strong or how capable he was, he couldn't compare to a kind-hearted person.
Therefore, Nichang's father wasn't observing Kirito's strength, but Kirito's thoughts and character. Nichang's father wanted to find a person who wouldn't abandon his companions in danger. This was a father's worry.
In fact, Nichang's father didn't have a good impression of Kirito. In fact, if Kirito thought about it from another perspective, he could understand. He was covered in blood and bruises when he fell into Nichang's room. No matter what, it was a kind of psychological damage to Nichang. How could Nichang's father have a good impression of Kirito?
At that time, whether it was Nichang or Nichang's father, Nichang's family didn't want to have too much trouble. Although Kirito didn't know why Nichang's family, who had a lot of money, still lived far away in the suburbs, he could tell from Nichang's character that Nichang wasn't a warm-hearted person. Kirito had no choice. Otherwise, Kirito would have died in a foreign land.
However, these days' test made Nichang's father have a different feeling about Kirito. Nichang's father found that Kirito wasn't an exaggerated playboy, nor was he a frivolous tourist who made trouble. On the contrary, Kirito's calmness and concentration made Nichang's father feel inferior.
Although Nichang's father had a preliminary judgment about Kirito, and this judgment was very satisfactory to Nichang's father, Nichang's father still wanted to test Kirito again. For this test, Nichang's father had already prepared early.
On the other side, Kirito suddenly sneezed. This made Kirito scratch his head and wonder, "Is someone thinking about me?" As he said this, he couldn't help but look gloomy. After a while, he returned to normal.
Kirito suddenly missed his life on the Green Mang Star. Kirito was afraid that something had happened to Wise Joe Yifeng and the Red Monkey.
The Red Monkey was fine. After all, he was smart and witty. Kirito wasn't necessarily his opponent. However, Wise Joe Yifeng was different. She was a woman, and she fell down from the space tunnel and came to an unfamiliar environment. Now, Kirito only hoped that the Red Monkey could find Wise Joe Yifeng as soon as possible.
Kirito thought for a while and hurriedly began to cultivate. Kirito wanted to recover quickly and find Wise Joe Yifeng and the Red Monkey as soon as possible.
Kirito began to cultivate again.
In fact, Kirito had almost finished cultivating. However, he had been worried about Nichang's father's test. Otherwise, Kirito might have to leave before fully recovering. These days, Kirito had been thinking that if Nichang's father didn't come to find him, then Kirito would go talk to Nichang's father himself. After all, he really couldn't delay here.
On the other side, Nichang finally couldn't sit still. He heard from his father that Kirito was almost recovered. Nichang's father had begun to prepare for the official test of Kirito. Listening to his father's tone, it seemed that Kirito had left a good impression on his father. Nichang wanted to ask more, but his father had already asked him to leave.
Nichang had no choice but to hold back all his thoughts. Nichang thought that he should take action. He couldn't escape anymore. He had to have a good talk with his mother. No matter what the result was, he had worked hard and he wouldn't regret it.
Nichang knew that if he gave up this opportunity to go out with Kirito, he might not be able to go out for a long time. He might not even be able to realize his dream for the rest of his life. Because of his mother's worries and expectations, he might get married very soon. Even if his father understood him and knew that this was not what Nichang wanted, he might still be persuaded by his mother in the end.
Nichang hesitated at the door. He encouraged himself again and again. Finally, he knocked on his mother's door.
There was no response from behind the door. Nichang knew that his mother was in the room, but there was no sound from behind the door. Nichang didn't want to leave, and he knew that his mother must know that he wouldn't leave either.
Both of them were waiting for the other to admit defeat. Nichang stood outside the door. Nichang's mother was also in a complicated mood. She didn't know how to face Nichang. She didn't even know how to talk to Nichang. Nichang's mother insisted that Nichang get married. It wasn't that she didn't understand Nichang. On the contrary, a mother's love was the deepest and most direct. However, Nichang's mother only wanted Nichang to be an ordinary girl.
It had been more than ten years since the family moved from the most prosperous area to this remote town. Nichang's mother didn't want Nichang to go through the painful things that Nichang's father had gone through. Nichang's mother thought that everything would be better if she escaped here. If she didn't talk about the past, it would be as if nothing had happened. However, Nichang's mother now knew that she was wrong.
Nichang's mother knew that many things would happen even if you didn't talk about them. Many things would come knocking on your door even if you wanted to avoid them. In the end, Nichang's mother let out a long sigh. Finally, as if she had lost all her strength, she said, "Come in."
This sentence seemed to have drained all of Nichang's mother's strength. Her eyes, which had been full of life, now dimmed. Nichang suddenly realized that his mother was already over fifty years old. Even though his father's soul power had nourished his mother, her hair had still turned white.
Ni Shang was a little lost and heartbroken, but she didn't dare to regret it. This was the path she had chosen. If she regretted it right from the start, Ni Shang really couldn't imagine how she would continue on this long path. Her father had told Ni Shang that even if she lost everything and was only left with herself in the end, she couldn't give up even after crying, laughing, crying, and losing.
Nichang began to understand that his father didn't mean what he said. Nichang looked at his mother with complicated feelings. The price of growing up was so cruel. Nichang couldn't bear to tell his mother what he had been thinking about for days and nights, but he also didn't want to give up on his dream. He seemed to have fallen into a dilemma. He couldn't move forward, and he couldn't retreat.
