Chapter 21: Empress Limited Time Experience Card (2/2)

“Also, you can get off me now.” Ning Wuxie suddenly said, reaching out to grab Jiang Ningxuan’s delicate and smooth calf, lifting it up.

Jiang Ningxuan immediately fell to the side, landing on the bed. Ning Wuxie then got off the bed and stood up straight.

“You can make any request, even if it means risking my life, but it must be after I kill Li Luobing.”

“Once I complete my revenge, this life will belong to you.”

“How about it, Empress, are you satisfied?”

Ning Wuxie’s back appeared somewhat lonely as he spoke without turning around.

Jiang Ningxuan sat on the bed, looking at Ning Wuxie’s eyes filled with complex emotions. Her bright and beautiful phoenix eyes shimmered with clarity. For some reason, seeing Ning Wuxie like this made her feel a bit uncomfortable.

However, she still spoke with a stiff tone: “Fine, let’s do it your way. When the time comes, I will personally take your life.”

“But before that…”

Ning Wuxie stood by the bed, listening to the silence behind him.

After more than ten seconds, Jiang Ningxuan still did not speak. Was this thinking time a bit too long?

“Before that, if there’s something to say, just say it. Once I say it, I won’t go back on my word.”

“…” Silence continued.

“?” Ning Wuxie’s brows furrowed. What was Jiang Ningxuan doing? She had just hit him and made harsh remarks, and now she was playing riddles.

“Jiang Ningxuan, you…”

Ning Wuxie showed impatience and turned around, just as sounds of rustling came from the bed.

In the next second, a soft, fair girl, radiating warmth and fragrance, suddenly pounced on him!

“Brother!”

“Brother, Xuan’er misses you!”

Ning Wuxie felt the warmth and softness in his arms and was momentarily stunned, looking down at the girl kneeling by the bed, tightly hugging him. Her delicate head was buried in his chest, and her black hair resembled ink jade.

“Why did you call Xuan’er by her full name? Are you angry with Xuan’er?”

Xuan’er looked up, her stunningly beautiful face glistening with tears, appearing pitiful and extremely delicate.

“Brother!” Xuan’er pouted, her small hands tugging at Ning Wuxie’s clothes. Seeing that Ning Wuxie did not respond, she looked genuinely scared.

“Xuan’er can see brother every day, but cannot speak. Xuan’er also wants to come out earlier, but just cannot.”

“Xuan’er was wrong. Next time, I won’t leave for so long…”

Ning Wuxie suddenly reacted and quickly hugged Xuan’er, pressing her into his embrace as if she were a treasure regained.

…

“Brother, why have I suddenly grown so big?” Xuan’er lay on another blanket, asking Ning Wuxie beside her.

“It should be the special effect of the Divine Spiritual Body. It seems to have directly made your physical age increase by six or seven years.”

“Xuan’er, from now on, you will be an adult of the same age as brother. You can’t act like a little girl anymore.”

Xuan’er smiled innocently: “Except in front of brother, when else do I act like a child?”

Ning Wuxie couldn’t help but chuckle; it was indeed true.

Xuan’er had wandered for many years, suffering a lot, and her mind was strong and mature. Moreover, being a Divine Spiritual Body, there was no need to worry about her intellect.

“Then it’s settled. From now on, in front of brother, will Xuan’er always be a little kid?”

“Okay~” Xuan’er said sweetly, leaning closer to Ning Wuxie, the two blankets becoming meaningless as Xuan’er almost pressed against him.

“Xuan’er, don’t get so close. You are grown up now…”

“Didn’t you just say I would always be a little kid?” Xuan’er said in a spoiled tone, disregarding his words as she squeezed forward, directly burrowing into Ning Wuxie’s blanket, hugging one of his arms tightly.

“Let’s sleep, brother. Good night~” Xuan’er rested her head on Ning Wuxie’s shoulder, contentedly closing her eyes.

Ning Wuxie was left alone in the darkness, silently reciting the calming mantra for half an hour.
