Chapter 68 Wishing Tree

The next morning, Ning Cheng got up early to prepare breakfast and went to Xiao Zhong Ling's room to wake her up.

"Brother Ning Cheng, there is no need to go to school on weekends." Xiao Zhong Ling looked at Ning Cheng pitifully with her big, watery eyes, and then fell asleep.

"Xiao Nizi, even if it's the weekend, you have to get up and have breakfast." Ning Cheng then remembered that today is a weekend.

"Okay, one more minute, one minute and I'll get up." Little Zhong Ling's long eyelashes fluttered, like a sleeping beauty.

"Little lazy boy, get up!" Ning Cheng gently pinched little Zhong Ling's nose.

"Well, brother Ning Cheng is bullying." Zhong Ling slowly got up from the bed, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and then said, "I don't know what's going on lately, I can't get enough sleep."

"Children can grow taller if they sleep more." Ning Cheng said.

"Then I will continue to sleep." Xiao Zhong Ling said with a wink.

"No!" Ning Cheng laughed, "I almost got in trouble with a little girl like you."

"Hey, I got up to eat. I like the food cooked by brother Ning Cheng the most."

After this little episode, Xiao Zhong Ling finally got up and had breakfast with Ning Cheng and Xiaodong.

After the meal, Ning Cheng simply put away the dishes and wiped the water from his hands.

"Brother Ning Cheng, let me tell you something." Xiao Zhong Ling walked into the kitchen and grabbed the corner of Ning Cheng's clothes.

"Okay, tell me what's going on." Ning Cheng squatted down and asked.

"Teacher Zhang said that there will be a tree planting activity at school tomorrow and parents need to accompany them. Can you accompany me?" Little Zhong Ling asked anxiously.

"I'm your brother, so of course I have to go with you." Ning Cheng touched little Zhong Ling's forehead and said with a smile, "We must plant the most powerful tree!"

"Yeah!" Little Zhong Ling nodded happily, and then jumped out of the kitchen.

Seeing such a happy little Zhong Ling, Ning Cheng smiled and shook his head. He could naturally feel that little Zhong Ling had been disappointed for a moment.

"Xiaodong, let's go out with Xiao Zhongling to choose saplings later." Ning Cheng briefly told Xiaodong what was going to happen tomorrow.

Xiaodong naturally understood what Ning Cheng meant, and since he had been getting along with little Zhong Ling during this period, he had already regarded her as his younger sister.

After tidying up, Ning Cheng changed into casual clothes. Xiao Zhong Ling had already prepared, and the three of them set off without delay.

There seemed to be no place selling saplings nearby, so walking was not a good option. Ning Cheng stopped a taxi and just asked the master to take them there.

During this time, Ning Cheng was also thinking about whether he should buy a mobility scooter, otherwise it would be really troublesome to go out.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at a flower and bird market. I heard that there were also various saplings inside.

Children will always be children. Little Zhong Ling’s eyes lit up as soon as she entered the flower and bird market. If Ning Cheng hadn’t held her hand, she would have browsed the entire flower and bird market by now!

"Brother Ning Cheng, look, that parrot is so beautiful, it's like touching its fur!" said little Zhong Ling.

"Want to touch it? Brother Ning Cheng can help you." Ning Cheng raised little Zhong Ling high, and little Zhong Ling stretched out her little hand and gently touched the little parrot's head.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts."

The parrot actually took a few steps back and said.

"You can still talk! Brother Ning Cheng, look."

Ning Cheng nodded and said, "If you like it, let's buy it." Ning Cheng said.

"No, no need, let's go see the saplings." The child's interest came and went quickly, and he lost interest in the parrot after a while.

After walking around for a while, I finally returned to the sapling shop. There were quite a lot of saplings inside, mostly from the south. There were not many people in the shop, and the business looked a bit bleak.

When he noticed that a customer had arrived, the boss stood up from the lounge chair and said, "Do you want to buy saplings?"

"Yes, Grandpa Boss, do you have a wishing tree here?" Xiao Zhong Ling said.

"Wishing tree?" The boss has been selling saplings for so many years and this is the first time he has heard of this kind of tree.

"We don't have any, but we have many kinds of saplings here. You can take a look."

"No." Xiao Zhong Ling was a little disappointed.

"Xiaoling, what kind of tree is the wishing tree?" Xiaodong couldn't help but ask.

"Sister Cao Shuang told me. She said she had seen a wishing tree and made a wish!"

Naturally, Ning Cheng heard it from the side, but he did not speak. He also knew that there was no such thing as a wishing tree in the world. It was just a tree on which people pinned their beautiful yearnings.

"Little Zhong Ling, brother Ning Cheng doesn't know the wishing tree, but he knows the tree spirit." Ning Cheng smiled lightly.

"Tree spirit?" Even the boss looked a little stupid and looked at Ning Cheng with curiosity.

"No matter what kind of tree it is, as long as you make a wish sincerely, it will hear your voice and your wish will come true. Moreover, we planted the tree ourselves, which is like giving it life, so it will

Fulfill our wishes." Ning Cheng said.

"Really?" Xiao Zhong Ling's eyes flashed, "Then I must choose the best sapling, so that she can thrive!"

The boss understood what Ning Cheng meant. He also knew that there was no wishing tree in the world, so he smiled and said, "Little girl, you can plant peach blossom trees. Peach blossom trees are very spiritual."

"Peach blossom tree?"

"Yes, when the peach blossom tree grows up and blooms, it is the most effective time to make a wish!" The boss, who is also an extremely shrewd businessman, followed Ning Cheng's words.

"Really?" Little Zhong Ling grabbed Ning Cheng's hand and shook it vigorously, "Brother Ning Cheng, I want a peach tree sapling, so that I can make wishes in the future."

"Okay, then let's buy a peach tree."

Ning Cheng was about to pay the money when a burst of sarcasm suddenly sounded from the side.

"A country bumpkin is just a country bumpkin. He still makes a wish without any knowledge!" A female voice full of sarcasm sounded in Ning Cheng's ears.

Ning Cheng frowned and looked over. He saw a girl in her twenties wearing heavy makeup and light skin. She had fair skin and looked very coquettish.

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute." Ning Cheng frowned.

"Haha, can't you just say a few words to me?"

"Boss, leave him alone, we will just buy peach trees."

"Boss, no matter how much he pays, I'll double it!" The woman seemed unhappy with Ning Cheng's attitude.

Xiaodong snorted coldly and was about to teach the woman a lesson, but was stopped by Ning Cheng.

"For the last time, get out!!!"

Ning Cheng's eyes already had murderous intent, he didn't want to kill little Zhong Ling's beautiful fantasy about the wishing tree.

"Haha, if I say there is no wishing tree, there is none!" The woman, who is also the master of good deeds, said arrogantly.

Ning Cheng finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Xiaodong, slap her."

"Okay!" Xiaodong nodded, walked up to the woman, raised his hand and slapped her without any hesitation.

The woman was completely stunned. She didn't expect that Ning Cheng would dare to take action!

"Ah, do you know who my husband is? How dare you hit me! You must not want to live anymore!" The woman's sharp voice suddenly attracted the attention of many people.
