Chapter 218 Xun Zhu Returns
"I...I mean..." she faltered, looking away.
"Yeah, I'm so lucky to meet you," Ning Wuxie came closer and looked at Jiang Ningxuan's red cheeks reluctantly.
"Don't, don't say that." Jiang Ningxuan twisted her body away slightly, but did not leave the spot, "I should also thank you. If you hadn't taken me and protected me, I don't know what kind of suffering I would have suffered... "
She suddenly turned around, no longer hiding, but looked directly at Ning Wuxie, as if this was the only way to express her true feelings, with infinite gratitude and affection flowing in her eyes.
"I, I will repay you, now or in the future, whatever you want." She puffed out her chest and slightly amplified her voice, as if to create momentum for herself who was flustered.
"whatever?"
"..." Jiang Ningxuan blushed even more, looking at Ning Wuxie, but not daring to meet his eyes, so she could only wander around in a daze, "Of course anything will do, but it can't be too much..."
"Okay, then I will make this wish now, and you must satisfy me." Ning Wuxie had already thought of the answer in an instant and said directly.
"Now?!" Jiang Ningxuan exclaimed. She glanced at the night above her head, and then at the dilapidated cabin next to her that she longed for. She felt the heat on her face reaching her ears, and her left chest was also feeling faintly hot.
"Yes, I'm going to say it."
"You...just say it."
"I want you to allow me to go with you to defeat this Tianxu and strip away the way of heaven!"
Jiang Ningxuan was stunned and raised her head suddenly.
"What kind of wish is this? This is for you to help me..."
"This is my wish, really." Ning Wuxie looked at Jiang Ningxuan with sincere eyes.
Seeing Jiang Ningxuan suddenly holding her breath and staring at him, Ning Wuxie thought she was going to refuse again, so she hurriedly explained.
"I know you don't like me calling you Xuan'er, but I want to say that you are just as kind, as strong and fragile as the Xuan'er I know, and just as in need of love and care."
"I won't force you, I just want to follow you. According to your words, Li Luobing is our common goal. I am also very good at fighting. In this small world, you can come in and rest at any time..."
Seeing Ning Wuxie's sincere eyes and skilled face, Jiang Ningxuan's body trembled suddenly, she quickly looked away and muttered.
"I know what you mean, and I also...but..."
"All right."
Following her soft promise, Ning Wuxie was overjoyed and stepped forward to hug Jiang Ningxuan into her arms.
Jiang Ningxuan's delicate body was soft and boneless, and she was hugged to Ning Wuxie's chest.
After a moment, Ning Wuxie quickly let go and said sheepishly, "I'm sorry, this hug has no other meaning."
"Yeah." Jiang Ningxuan could only say, lowering her head and not daring to look at him.
In the second half of the night, they chatted for a while, discussed how to rebuild the cabin, and wandered around other parts of the small world.
Ning Wuxie could feel that Jiang Ningxuan had become more mature, more thoughtful and independent after her memory awakened. He knew that Jiang Ningxuan must still have many past experiences that she had not told him, but he should not be anxious about this kind of thing. Since Jiang Ningxuan agreed to two people together, there would be plenty of opportunities.
For some reason, Jiang Ningxuan never mentioned washing off the tattoo on the way back. After returning to the main world, Ning Wuxie prepared a bed for Jiang Ningxuan. After getting ready, he went downstairs and asked Jiang Ningxuan to rest. He found that the three pieces of jewelry he had placed on the table were gone.
"Then where are you sleeping?" Jiang Ningxuan asked.
"I'll just make do on the couch."
"That's okay, this is your house." Jiang Ningxuan was a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter, you can just sleep." Ning Wuxie waved his hand and walked to the sofa to sit down.
Jiang Ningxuan stood there stunned, watching Ning Wuxie walk to sit next to her, she stood up, and Ning Wuxie directly put her legs on the sofa, as if she had already made up her mind to sleep here.
She had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the stairs. After taking two steps, the footsteps stopped again. Ning Wuxie heard her whisper:
"How about we share a bed."
"..." Ning Wuxie sat up silently.
Jiang Ningxuan didn't need to say anything, Ning Wuxie swore that she wouldn't move, and they both covered themselves with a quilt. After some time, Ning Wuxie was still not asleep, but she felt Jiang Ningxuan moving around beside her, gradually leaning closer to her.
She slept a little uneasily, always moving around, but she seemed to be resisting something, until she finally fell into an awkward position: her body was still in the bed, but her head touched Ning Wuxie's shoulder, standing upright. Her pretty nose touched Ning Wuxie's shoulder.
She finally stopped moving, leaning her body like this, as if smelling the scent of Ning Wuxie could help her sleep peacefully.
…
The next day, Meng Cangran and others were surprised to find that Jiang Ningxuan and Ning Wuxie, who were at odds with each other yesterday, actually got along harmoniously again, but they both seemed a little reserved.
The two of them were endlessly wondering why they were already an old married couple, and they still looked a little unfamiliar.
Just when Ning Wuxie was about to say goodbye to Meng Cangran and go to the Jianghu with Jiang Ningxuan. Suddenly someone came to report that Xun Zhu was back!
He didn't notify anyone before and went to Renzong City overnight. This seemed to be a very low-price behavior, because Renzong Renhuang had the same status as him.
Now Xun Zhu is back. Before he told everyone why he rushed to Renzong City, he was told that Ning Wuxie stabilized the political situation of Lan Yuan, defeated the rebels, and helped Confucianism win the Lan Yuan Dynasty, and immediately called him over.
Ning Wuxie was a little impatient. Even though everything had been clearly explained, why did she still ask him to go there? She was already planning to leave Junzishan with Jiang Ningxuan.
But after all, he was in Confucianism, and even with the title of Shaoxian, he still went to have a rest.
It was still the simple little courtyard where he led Xuan'er to worship Confucianism for the first time, but the arrogant scholar had been replaced and he had grown up.
The new bookboy was very respectful and polite, and introduced Ning Wuxie, Jiang Ningxuan and Bai Zhou.
Xun Zhu was the only one in the courtyard. When he saw Ning Wuxie come in, his tired eyes lit up.
"Ning Wuxie, you did a very good job. You really gave Confucianism and I a huge surprise."
Xun Zhu said, taking a closer look at Bai Zhi with surprised eyes. The latter stood next to Ning Wuxie's legs and looked around with an impatient look on his face.
Ning Wuxie saluted and was politely modest.
"The matter is so important that the six junior brothers did not dare to publicize it. They just made a plan for me to see. I think it is good." Is this a mistake? Do you still want to go to Lanyuan?"
"Back to Master Xun, this disciple has other plans at the moment."
"Okay, okay, don't force it, just let others go." Xun Zhu said hurriedly, "After confirming the situation, if everything is true, Confucianism will start sending disciples to Lanyuan to serve as officials."
"However, considering that the Lord of Lan Yuan... is your partner now, and you have a very good relationship with Mo Xin, so the position of National Master of Lan Yuan is still yours."
"At the same time, we are also considering continuing to upgrade you, directly surpassing the Twelve Supreme Beings, and promoting you to the top ten literary saints!"
