Chapter 223: Nothing wrong?

Chapter 223 Nothing wrong?

Shen Dinghai had unknowingly moved to Ranran's side out of his subconscious self-protection.

He stood close to Ranran, trying to curl himself up into a ball.

It was really that the aura Ning Wu exuded just now was too terrifying. Although it was only for a moment, Shen Dinghai had never seen such an overwhelming aura.

Almost overwhelming.

Ran Ran repeated Ning Wu's words.

"You are not Ning Wu, then who are you?"

Ning Wu's lips moved, but Ran Ran just smiled slightly and looked at the tea in his hand seriously.

"Did you put anything in there?"

Ning Wu sneered, "How can you trust the words of a foolish person?"

Ran Ran nodded, then extended the teacup to Ning Wu, indicating that she wanted to clink glasses with him.

"It's boring for me to drink alone."

Ning Wu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately picked up the cup of tea in front of him.

Shen Dinghai couldn't understand this move again.

Isn't this tea? How come it tastes like wine?

He couldn't understand the behavior of these two people!

The porcelain cups clinked together, making a clear sound. Ning Wu raised the corners of his lips slightly and drank the tea in the cup.

Shen Dinghai was stunned.

Ning Wu has been smiling since the moment he appeared, and the smile has hardly ever left his face.

But none of his previous smiles could compare to this one, which was so tiny that it was almost invisible.

So tiny that perhaps even he didn't notice it.

At this moment, he was laughing sincerely and from the bottom of his heart.

Ran Ran watched Ning Wu finish drinking, and then he also took a sip.

By the time Shen Dinghai reacted, Ranran had already drunk the tea.

"Cousin, why can't you drink?"

Ran Ran smiled and looked at Shen Dinghai, "Isn't it okay if I drink this? Second nephew, you think too much. Ning Wu is here to help us."

"No! This person is very suspicious!" Shen Dinghai was stunned for a moment and then retorted, "His identity is questionable, how can you just drink the tea he gives you?!"

Ran Ran kept smiling, "Contrary to your guess, nephew, Ning Wu is not here to hinder us, he is here to help us."

"Think carefully about what Ning Wu has done throughout the day. Has he done anything to hinder us? Not a single thing."

“On the contrary he has been helping.”

Shen Dinghai wanted to say something else, but Ranran reached out and patted him soothingly.

"Ning Wu is here to help us, that's enough."

Shen Dinghai was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Ranran meant.

No matter what Ning Wu's identity is, as long as he is beneficial to them in investigating this matter, it will be fine.

But this made Shen Dinghai even more confused.

When he was initially bewitched by Ning Wu's appearance, his cousin was able to rely on her sixth sense and wanted to avoid Ning Wu.

How come now that he has seen clearly, his cousin is not opposed to Ning Wu anymore... He can't understand this logic, it's so weird.

"Just take a nap first, it will be fine after a good sleep."

Shen Dinghai glanced at Ran Ran, then at Ning Wu, both of them had gentle smiles on their faces.

In an instant, a horrifying thought appeared in Shen Dinghai's mind.

My cousin has been controlled by Wu Ning!

Shen Dinghai suddenly felt his hands and feet were cold, but even colder than his hands and feet was his heart!

It’s so cold!

He nodded stiffly, and without even realizing it, he walked back to the sofa opposite Ning Wu and lay down.

"I fell asleep."

Ran Ran responded to him gently, "Go to sleep."

Shen Dinghai closed his eyes with anxiety. He thought he would not be able to sleep and would spend the whole night in fear. However, he soon fell asleep in the faint fragrance of tea.

Before he completely lost consciousness, he heard Ranran's soft voice.

"Thank you for the calming tea."

"Well... as long as you like it."

It’s a calming tea… not poison, right? Shen Dinghai thought slowly, but this calming tea is… too… calming… right?

All sounds were stretched and distorted, and Shen Dinghai fell into a strange dream.

When he woke up the next morning, he felt sore all over. He had only slept for a while. How could this happen?

Could it be that Ning Wu beat him up while he was asleep? !

He couldn't remember anything about the dream, but he vaguely felt that it was a pretty good dream.

"Ah?" Shen Dinghai rubbed his green messy hair, "I was so scared when I went to sleep yesterday, how could I have such a sweet dream?"

"This is too strange!"

"It's all thanks to Ning Wu. He wanted us to have a good rest so that we would have enough experience for investigation today."

Ran Ran's voice suddenly sounded beside him. Shen Dinghai's first reaction was to feel relieved, but when he thought of what happened last night, he hugged himself tightly with caution.

Facing possible dangers, Shen Dinghai's trump card is sincerity.

Ten percent sincere.

Shen Dinghai said pitifully: "Cousin...are you still my cousin? You are not controlled by Ning Wu, right?"

Ran Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Why would I be controlled by him? He doesn't know any magic, he's just an ordinary person."

"Ah?" Shen Dinghai couldn't believe it. "Is Ning Wu really an ordinary person?"

Ran Ran smiled and nodded, "Yes, in order to reassure you and myself, I went to check on him last night while he was asleep."

"How did you find out?"

Ran Ran looked at her white fingertips and said, "Just put your fingers on his forehead. This can replace the traditional spirit-testing tools and roughly measure the person's qualifications."

"Ning Wu is really just an ordinary person."

The vigilant expression on Shen Dinghai's face relaxed for a moment, and the next second he shouted again.

"No! Cousin, you acted very strangely last night! You may have been controlled by Ning Wu, but you don't know it!"

“When have I acted strangely?”

"That's when you asked me to sleep! And it's weird that you wanted to clink glasses with Ning Wu!"

Ran Ran smiled helplessly and said, "At that time, I didn't know Ning Wu's situation yet, so of course I needed to treat him with a gentler attitude."

Shen Dinghai opened his mouth wide, "So that's how it is... I thought too much..."

He scratched his head awkwardly and looked around the room.

Ning Wu is not here.

"Where did that kid go?"

Ranran made way for Shen Dinghai so that he could get down from the crowded sofa.

In fact, Ning Wu’s residence was not small, especially compared with other workers’ residences. It was just that there were too many large pieces of furniture in his room, making the space a bit cramped.

However, the huge sofa was not big enough for Shen Dinghai, who was strong and tall.

So this crowded scene occurred.

"Ning Wu has gone to prepare breakfast for us."

Shen Dinghai paused, "Is there a share for me too?" Ranran nodded.

"He's so kind?" Shen Dinghai was full of suspicion. "I just talked about his conspiracy theory yesterday."

"Ning Wu may not be the type of person who would quibble over every little thing."

Shen Dinghai said, "Huh?" "Isn't he being petty enough? If he is really fine, it's just a cup of tea, why can only you, cousin, drink it, and I can't even touch it!"

A voice like a ghost sounded behind Shen Dinghai.

"Who is Mr. Shen talking about being fussy about?"

Shen Dinghai froze immediately, and a chill ran down his back.

His cousin told him that everything was normal and there was nothing wrong.

Is there really nothing wrong?
