Chapter 156: A Burden

Walking on the path to the bedroom, he saw his dispirited sister, Qin Qing.

Qin Ming couldn't help but shout, "Qin Qing, what's the matter?"

"Brother!" Lifting her head, Qin Qing saw Qin Ming walking over. With tears welling up in her eyes, she sobbed, "Brother, am I a burden?"

"What's wrong?" Qin Ming held his sister's little head and asked gently, "My sister is the cutest, how could you be a burden?"

"Who told you that?"

Qin Ming had already decided that no matter who said that to his sister, he would definitely make them pay.

Seeing his closest sister so heartbroken made Qin Ming's heart ache.

Qin Qing shook her head and said:

"No one called me a burden; I thought of it myself."

"It's all because of me that you offended the Sima Family."

"I already know that the Sima Family is one of the Three Great Families in Chenyang City, and they are very powerful."

"Because their son died, they want to attack our Qin Family."

"Now the entire Qin Family is worried. Don't you think I'm a burden?"

"No!" Qin Ming said firmly, "Little sister, it was the Sima Family who provoked you first."

"How could you be the burden?"

"The ones at fault are the people of the Sima Family, not you!"

"But…" Qin Qing pouted, "It's all because of me that the Sima Family became hostile."

"If I hadn't gone out to play, I wouldn't have run into the young master of the Sima Family."

"If I hadn't run into the young master of the Sima Family, the Family wouldn't be in trouble."

"It's all my fault."

After finishing, Qin Qing started to cry.

"Be good!" Qin Ming hurriedly comforted his sister and asked, "Do you trust your brother?"

Hearing this, Qin Qing lifted her little head, looked at her brother seriously, and nodded firmly.

"Since you trust your brother, then Brother promises you that the Qin Family will be fine."

"You are not a burden; you are the cutest, most beautiful, and most sensible little princess of the Qin Family!"

Qin Ming said earnestly.

Qin Qing, still having tears on her face, broke into a smile upon hearing this and said:

"Mm… I am the cutest and most beautiful little princess of the Qin Family."

"As for being the most sensible…"

Rubbing his sister's head, Qin Ming said, "You are the most sensible little princess."

Qin Qing nodded firmly and said, "I am the most sensible little princess of the Qin Family."

"So, you don't need to worry now. The Sima Family is so evil; they will surely suffer divine retribution just like the Zhao Family."

Qin Ming said with hidden meaning.

"Really?" Qin Qing asked, "Will all bad people suffer divine retribution?"

"They will!" Qin Ming nodded and said.

Whether bad people would suffer divine retribution, he didn't know, but he did know that anyone who bullied his sister would suffer divine retribution.

The Zhao Family was one, and the Chen Family was another.

Then the Sima Family would be the next one.

Gazing at the horizon, Qin Ming's expression was firm.

In this life, he would not be a good person, nor would he be a bad person.

He would only be someone who protects his Family. Whoever dared to harm his Qin Family members, he would pay them back tenfold, a hundredfold.

"Shall Brother make some candy beans for you?" Qin Ming smiled and said.

"Okay!" Hearing that her brother was going to make candy beans for her, Qin Qing jumped up instantly and said happily, "Brother, I've already finished all my previous candy beans."

"You've been so busy lately that you haven't had time to make any for me."

"Alright, I'll make them for you right now. Let's go, we're going to that old man's Alchemy Room."

Qin Ming said with a smile.

The reason he wanted to go to Elder Qing's Alchemy Room was to ask why the Ouyang Family Head had suddenly become critically ill.

For an expert at the Grand Martial Master Realm to suddenly become critically ill, even a fool would know something was wrong.
