Chapter 167

Cao Shuang looked at Xiaoxia, and Xiaoxia also looked at Cao Shuang.

The two looked at each other for five seconds.

Xiaoxia's face, which was originally full of spring breeze, gradually became gloomy, and then she snorted coldly, "Huh, suddenly I'm not very hungry anymore."

"Xiao Xia." Ning Cheng stood up and chased after him with a wry smile. He didn't expect that this little ancestor would come at this time.

Cao Shuang also felt a little baffled. After all, she and Xiao Xia were not very familiar with each other, but it could be seen from Xiao Xia's attitude just now that she seemed to hate herself...

Cao Shuang always felt weird inside.

Not long after, Ning Cheng came back with Xiao Xia. She was still pouting angrily, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was angry.

"Humph, for the sake of the foodie god, I'll just have to eat one meal." Xiaoxia said while looking at the food on the table.

In the end, Cao Shuang was also allowed to stay, and the few of them had a rather pleasant lunch.

After meal.

Cao Shuang played with little Zhong Ling for a while, and then she planned to return to the Cao family. After all, the wedding was approaching, and if she stayed here, she would inevitably be discovered by the Li family.

"Ning Cheng, I'm leaving." Cao Shuang stood up and said.

"Oh, let's go together then." Ning Cheng walked out of the kitchen and wiped the water from his hands.

"Let's go together? Where?" Cao Shuang blinked and asked in confusion.

"Go to Cao's house."

Xiaoxia sat on a chair nearby, tapping Erlang's legs, snorting coldly and saying nothing.

Cao Shuang was completely confused. What did this mean?

"No...Ning Cheng, what do you mean by this?"

"Literally." Ning Cheng smiled and said, "Okay, don't be in a daze, let's go."

Ning Cheng thought that he should go to Cao's house. Cao Shuang happened to be here today, so he went back to Cao's house with Cao Shuang.

Cao Shuang frowned, she was still not very clear about Ning Cheng's intentions.

Xiao Xia, who was standing by, finally couldn't stand it anymore, stood up from the chair, and said impatiently, "Oh, you guys are so annoying. Miss Ning Chengben doesn't have anything to do today, so I just want to go with you!"

"You?" Ning Cheng opened his mouth in surprise and said, "What are you going to do?"

"Humph, you won't ask me for it then." Xiaoxia sat back on the chair again.

"Uh." Ning Cheng scratched his head. He knew that Xiaoxia couldn't go to Cao's house with him for no reason. There must be a reason for it, and Xiaoxia was still an alchemist. Maybe something would happen to her then.

Thinking of this, Ning Cheng said, "Okay, let's go together."

"What...are you talking about?"

Cao Shuang didn't understand a word on the side.

"You'll know once you get there," Ning Cheng said.

...

Half an hour later.

A Land Rover parked in front of Cao's house. Cao Shuang got out of the car with a strange expression on his face.

"Get off the car."

In the car, Ning Cheng said to Xiaoxia.

"Hmph, you don't have to worry about it." Xiaoxia opened the car door angrily and got out of the car.

Ning Cheng smiled and shook his head, parked the car and got out of the car.

As soon as Cao Shuang entered the gate of Cao's house, he found that all the servants inside looked hurried, as if something big had happened!

"Steward Cao, what happened?" Cao Shuang asked, looking at Cao Zhong walking towards him.

"Sir, my old injury has recurred again. Now I am asking Dr. Ye for treatment. Hey, let's not talk about it. Now I have to go to the military hospital to find some old friends and ask them to help!" Cao Zhong said.

"Grandpa's old injury has relapsed?" Cao Shuang's expression changed and she immediately ran inside.

Cao Zhong sighed and was about to go out when he suddenly found Ning Cheng and Xiaoxia coming towards him!

"Little friend Ningcheng!" Cao Zhong's face lit up and he walked over, "You're here!"

Ning Cheng smiled and nodded, and said, "Steward Cao, I heard everything you just said. Mr. Cao..."

"Hey, the doctor who has been treating me for many years said it was a bit mysterious this time!" Cao Zhong looked dejected.

Just as he was talking, a black car drove up in front of Cao's house again, and Cao Lengfeng got out of the car.

"I'm so angry, you bastard Li family!"

"Master, how are you?" Cao Zhong walked over and asked with concern.

"The Li family said that only Shuang'er gets married before they can hand over the Spiritual Transformation Pill. Alas, it seems that we really can't delay it any longer." Cao Lengfeng sighed.

"Ning Cheng?" Cao Lengfeng glanced at Ning Cheng, then frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to see Mr. Cao." Ning Cheng said with a smile.

"My father cannot see you due to his current physical condition. Please leave slowly without seeing him off!" After Cao Lengfeng finished speaking, he was about to walk into Cao's house, but was stopped by Cao Zhong.

"Master, have you forgotten my master's instructions?" Cao Zhong said.

Cao Lengfeng snorted coldly, pointed at Ning Cheng and said, "Do you think they can come up with the Spirit Transformation Pill? Don't be ridiculous!"

"Hey, old man, don't look down on others. Be careful and regret it later." Xiaoxia said with a cold snort. She was indeed a little angry.

"What did you say!" Cao Lengfeng was about to have a fit, but was stopped by Cao Zhong. The Cao family was already in a state of chaos. What would it be like if the head of the Cao family quarreled with Ning Cheng and others at the gate again?

"Steward Cao, I want to meet Mr. Cao," Ning Cheng said.

Cao Zhong hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, sure!"

"I want to see what tricks you can do." Cao Lengfeng snorted and walked into Cao's house.

At the same time, the Li family.

"What? I heard that Cao Wudi is really dying?" Li Dehui asked.

"Yes, grandpa, just now Cao Lengfeng came here to ask for the magic pill, but I refused," Li Xuanqi said.

"Hahaha, okay, very good!" Li Dehui nodded and said, "This time I will see who else can block our Li family's path to becoming the first ancient martial arts family."

Cao family.

Because Cao Wudi was seriously ill, he had been moved from his original thatched house to a guest room in the Cao family.

At the door of the guest room, several servants would come in and out from time to time with basins in their hands. Everyone's face was full of anxiety.

Two young nurses in white coats saw Cao Zhong and walked over immediately.

"Steward Cao, where is the person our master asked you to find?" one of the young nurses asked.

"Uh... this." Cao Zhong looked confused. He had just forgotten about this incident because he saw Ning Cheng.

"I'm going to find it now!" Cao Zhong said.

Another nurse snorted coldly and walked into the room.

Cao Lengfeng's expression changed on the side, he stared at Ning Cheng fiercely and said, "If it weren't for you, Mr. Cao would have invited people here long ago!"

Ning Cheng shrugged, and then he saw Cao Shuang in the crowd. She was walking into the room with a basin of clean water in her hand. Her face was very pale, as pale as paper, and she looked very cautious.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman in a white coat walked out of the room. She walked directly to Cao Zhong and asked in a cold voice, "Where is Housekeeper Cao?"
