Chapter 31: Partner = Wife? (2/2)

But unlike Xuan’er’s pair of lively and innocent eyes, her eyes appeared somewhat indifferent, carrying a hint of coldness.

Everyone only knew her name was Dantai Ying, and she did not mention anything else.

This aloof and unapproachable aura was something Liu Zhirui and Chang Han could not provoke.

The two had recently stayed in Hermit Valley and were aware of Ning Wuxie’s “brilliant achievements.”

They occasionally glanced at Ning Wuxie, revealing strange smiles, as if they wanted to tease him.

Do not ask… do not ask!

Ning Wuxie prayed in his heart.

Currently, he was with Xuan’er!

If these two suddenly approached and said, “Brother Ning, the recording orb you shot before was really beautiful,”

What would that count as?

As long as he explained it alone to Xuan’er, no matter what was said, she would definitely believe him completely.

But if chatting with outsiders, going back and forth with vague statements, it would surely expose him!

While Ning Wuxie was thinking this, a thick voice suddenly came from beside him.

“Brother Ning, you are amazing?”

It was Liu Zhirui! He had come over!

Ning Wuxie remained silent, intending to let him feel the cold shoulder.

However, just as this thought emerged, the team leader Meng Cangran suddenly spoke up!

“Brother Ning is a young genius!”

After a long silence, he felt a bit bored.

As a Confucian Sect Inheritor, he had never seen Ning Wuxie’s great works! Therefore, he did not know Liu Zhirui’s purpose in asking this question!

Ning Wuxie silently lamented.

“Is that so?” Liu Zhirui and Chang Han showed surprised expressions, “Just as the rumors say, a young prodigy who surpasses borders.”

“Flattery.” Ning Wuxie waved his hand.

“However… Brother Ning is so young and already has his own partner.”

Chang Han picked up the conversation, revealing a meaningful smile.

“Both Liu and I are almost thirty, yet we have not found our own confidante. Brother Ning is truly enviable.”

Chang Han and Liu Zhirui turned their gazes toward Jiang Ningxuan, who had not let go of Ning Wuxie’s hand since entering the mountains.

Moreover, after dawn, when they looked at Jiang Ningxuan again, they realized that this young girl, despite her age, had stunning eyes that even surpassed Dantai Ying beside her.

Additionally, her figure was slender and graceful, an absolute beauty.

This made the two old bachelors feel a bit jealous.

Ning Wuxie smiled faintly and said, “Fate is truly wonderful.”

“What a fate!” Chang Han clapped and laughed, “Cultivation emphasizes wealth and partners. With such a lovely wife, Brother Ning’s achievements will surely be limitless!”

Liu Zhirui also echoed:

“Indeed, indeed. If Brother Ning takes on some part-time work shooting Harmony Sect’s recording orbs, wouldn’t the wealth come rolling in?”

Hearing what the two said, Ning Wuxie felt a sudden jolt in his heart.

At the same time, he felt Xuan’er’s hand, which he was holding, tighten suddenly.

He turned his head to look at Xuan’er.

Xuan’er’s big eyes were filled with surprise and confusion, staring at Ning Wuxie as if she had not reacted.

Currently, Xuan’er did not understand cultivation knowledge, so she did not know what partner meant.

However, she understood what wife meant…

Earlier, Liu and Chang’s words had caught her attention, and she knew they were talking about her.

“Brother… Ning Wuxie?”

Xuan’er’s dazed expression turned into disbelief as she called out softly.

Beneath the black mask, Xuan’er’s cheeks flushed rapidly, and even Ning Wuxie could see a hint of crimson spreading from beneath her mask…
