**Chapter 400: Please Pay Attention**

**Chapter 400: Please Pay Attention**

Ning Rongrong was wearing a light pink palace dress today, and she—who had never worn makeup before—had actually put on a little powder. It was obvious that someone had done her makeup especially for attending Zhao Ling's wedding. Her already extremely beautiful appearance, enhanced by a touch of makeup, made her look even more pleasing to the eye.

However, Zhao Ling felt that the girl was still young; natural beauty was the best. But since she had already put on her makeup, he couldn't pour cold water on her. So he generously praised her, which made Ning Rongrong so happy that she smiled from ear to ear.

"Really? Brother Ling, as long as you like it, Rongrong will be relieved."

"Hmm..." Zhao Ling reached out and rubbed Ning Rongrong's head again, then smiled at her. "Rongrong, please find a place to sit down first. Brother Ling still has to wait for the guests here."

"Hmm..." Ning Rongrong nodded, then retreated back to Ning Fengzhi and the two guardian Douluos, entering the mansion under the guidance of a servant.

After entering the mansion, Ning Fengzhi glanced around. After seeing Emperor Xue Ye and Prince Xue Xing, he quickly walked up to them and started chatting.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, where is Qinghe? According to his relationship with the Demon Suppression Douluo, he should have arrived a long time ago."

Ning Fengzhi discovered that there were hundreds of people in the courtyard, but he did not see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which made him very confused.

When Emperor Xue Ye saw him approach, he laughed heartily. "Qinghe said he was going to prepare a big gift for his adoptive father. Now who knows where he is? Even I, as his father, don't know. However, Qinghe will definitely prepare a good gift for his adoptive father, so we don't need to worry about it."

Prince Xuexing nodded in agreement. "Given Qinghe's relationship with the Demon Suppression Douluo, he will definitely come. If he doesn't show up for his adoptive father's wedding, I, as his uncle, will have to scold him severely."

Zhao Ling had very sensitive ears, so he naturally heard their conversation and laughed secretly in his heart. "The Prince Qinghe you are talking about is, of course, now putting on makeup in the room. After she is done, she will have to marry me, hehe."

Just as Zhao Ling was thinking this, Zhu Zhuqing brought her parents to him and handed the gift money to the person responsible for collecting red envelopes. She threw herself into Zhao Ling's arms as if no one was around, put her arms around Zhao Ling's back, and said sweetly, "Brother Ling, Qing'er brought my parents here. Is my sister putting on makeup in some room now?"

"Of course. Today is her wedding day, so she has to dress up beautifully." Zhao Ling nodded without hesitation, then looked at Zhu Zhuqing's parents and smiled. "Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, you're here. I haven't seen you the past two days. I thought you weren't coming."

The patriarch of the Netherworld Spirit Cat family raised his eyebrows. Being called "father-in-law" by Zhao Ling made him feel a little unhappy. After all, this guy was not younger than him; he was handsome and had unfathomable strength. Even his appearance didn't look like what he should have at this age—he looked just like someone in their twenties. This world was so unfair.

When Zhu Zhuqing's mother heard Zhao Ling call her "mother-in-law," she smiled widely, showing her teeth, as it was obvious she was very satisfied with the title.

"Son-in-law, from now on, my eldest daughter will be handed over to you, so you must be nice to her. As for Qing'er, don't worry; your father-in-law and I will definitely teach her well. When she grows up, she should be able to satisfy you. If you think they are too immature, I can..."

When the patriarch of the Netherworld Spirit Cat Family heard what his wife said, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart. He quickly covered his wife's mouth with his hands and glared at her fiercely.

"What nonsense are you talking about? There are so many people around; aren't you ashamed? If you keep talking nonsense, I will punish you severely when we get back."

Zhao Ling listened to what Zhu Zhuqing's mother said and thought to himself, "No way, no way, is this mother-in-law so open-minded? Please, mother-in-law, be careful; my father-in-law is right next to you. Is it really okay for you to say these things without considering your father-in-law's feelings?"

Seeing her husband's reaction, Zhu Zhuqing's mother glanced at him teasingly with her beautiful eyes, then directly pulled his hand away and chuckled.

"I don't mean anything else. I just want to tell my son-in-law that if he thinks our daughters are immature, I can teach them some common sense in that area."

"Uh..." Zhao Ling was left speechless. What her mother-in-law had just said didn't mean that at all, right?

The head of the Netherworld Spirit Cat Family couldn't wait to attend the wedding and take his wife away. He always felt that if he didn't bring his wife back quickly, there might be trouble for him at any moment.

This son-in-law of yours is really something; he probably has dozens of mistresses. Although his wife is a little older, she is well-maintained, and when she stands with her two daughters, they look like sisters. Who knows if the Demon Suppression Douluo will have strange thoughts about his wife?

Zhu Zhuqing reached out and gently twisted Zhao Ling's waist, then glared at him fiercely. "Don't listen to my mother's nonsense. If you dare to have any strange thoughts about my mother, Qing'er will definitely make you pay for it!"

"Uh..." Zhao Ling smiled awkwardly when he saw Zhu Zhuqing's fierce look. "How is that possible? Qing'er, Ling Ge isn't that beastly. Don't worry; I definitely won't have any weird thoughts about her."

"Okay, father-in-law, mother-in-law, Qing'er, please go find a place to sit down first."

Zhao Ling hurriedly called a servant to bring the three of them in, then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Zhao Ling met Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Girl Douluo, who had come as representatives from Sea God Island. The two bowed to Zhao Ling respectfully, looking as pious as possible.

Zhao Ling said to Hai Long and Hai Nu Douluo, "Go in and find a place to sit. This mansion is our home. You are all Xi'er's right-hand men. Don't be too formal with us."

The two nodded and walked toward the mansion.

The appearance of Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Girl Douluo was very different from that of soul masters on land, which soon aroused the curiosity of many people. Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo sensed the aura of Titled Douluo from the two and couldn't help but raise their eyebrows. However, they were well-informed and quickly guessed that the two were from the isolated Poseidon Island overseas. They nodded to Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Girl Douluo, giving them kind smiles.

Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Girl Douluo nodded to the two in return and then sat down at the same table. As Titled Douluo, although they belonged to different branches, they were eager to communicate with each other. Naturally, they would not miss the chance to exchange experiences, and soon the four Titled Douluo began chatting.
