An Yesun calmly said, "Stop talking. Jiahua, you go out first." Cheng Jiahua laughed, "I can't, Shifu. I have to watch from the side. She's my sister-in-law. If I'm not careful, her seniority will suddenly change and she becomes Shifu. Won't I suffer a great loss then? "
After being mocked by Li Yijie, Nangong Xue was the most sensitive to this matter. When she heard Cheng Jiahua mocking her again, her eyes reddened. An Yesun's anger was much greater than hers. He suddenly stood up from his seat, took a few steps forward, and punched Cheng Jiahua in the face. He coldly said, "If you dare to speak nonsense again, be careful of your tongue."
Cheng Jiahua staggered from the hit. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled bitterly, "Alright, then disciple will go outside to keep watch for Shifu. Please do as you wish." He nodded and bowed as he retreated and closed the door.
Nangong Xue heard the door creak. She sighed. The room was so quiet that she could hear a pin drop. In order to break the awkward atmosphere, she had to find something to talk about. She pretended to be cheerful and said, "Yo, that's rare. You heard the footsteps, but you didn't attack immediately? You're much less alert than before. "
An Yesun said, "I knew it was you." He snorted and looked up at her with half-closed eyes. He supported himself with one hand on the corner of the table. With a lazy expression, he coldly said, "What is it? Tell me if you're done … "Nangong Xue couldn't suppress her grief and wanted to find a way to vent. Suddenly, she lost control and rushed forward. She put her arms around An Yesun's neck and rested her chin on his shoulder. She sobbed softly, her thin body trembling uncontrollably.
An Yesun's body stiffened the moment she hugged him. He stood still like a stone statue. He only dared to feel his heart beating wildly and his blood rushing to his brain. Usually, when someone touched the back of his hand, he would immediately shake it off. This time, he was so embarrassed that he lost all ability to react. He swallowed the words, "If you're done, then leave quickly."
His right hand slowly lifted up as if it was pulled by a mechanism. He wanted to hold her shoulders and push her away, but when his fingers touched the corner of her clothes, his face turned red and his heart raced. He couldn't push it down... He raised his hand very slowly, and when it fell, it was back to its original position.... If you have something to say … talk … talk it out … don't be like this … "
Nangong Xue cried, "Why did you help them yesterday … you said that Lu Qian and I had … something …" An Yesun lost's mind..... "He's, he didn't know what he was saying...." An Yue's's's... was.. that's … what. I.. Lu … said … "An '' ''s,"... was be. was'.. That day in the valley … "Dark Night Yun said," No! . I forgot a long time ago. "
Nangong Xue stopped crying. She smiled and thought, "I only mentioned the valley. If you really didn't know what happened, how could you have answered so quickly?" Actually, if you asked An Yesun what he thought about that slap, he probably wouldn't have been able to explain it even when he was sober. After a while, he felt that Nangong Xue didn't have any intention of letting go. Her body in his embrace seemed even more soft. He said, "Uh … that … Miss Nangong …"
Nangong Xue was momentarily stunned. She thought she heard wrong. "What did you call me?" she asked. An Yesun said, "Nothing … Nothing." Nangong Xue smiled. Her gloomy mood instantly brightened up because of how An Yesun addressed her. She thought to herself, "Looks like you still remember my name … Then why do you always pretend that you don't know?" Throughout the journey, An Yesun had only called her "Hey".
The two of them stood in this awkward position for a long time. Then, as if talking to herself, Nangong Xue said softly, "They all misunderstood me. Even my most respected martial brother wronged me … He insisted that I had feelings for you … But I'm really not that kind of girl. I don't care about the others, but my martial brother and I have been friends for more than ten years. I can't believe he doesn't trust me at all …"
When An Yesun heard this, his heart was suddenly filled with anger. He thought to himself, "The only one I love is Menglin. I wasn't close to you in the first place. That damned Li Yijie actually dared to say that I was seducing you. Am I that kind of person?" He no longer felt pity for Nangong Xue. He pushed her away and said, "If you don't want to be misunderstood, then don't do things that will give people something to talk about! Get lost! Stay away from me! I hate it when people get close to me. Didn't I tell you that? "
He used a lot of strength in his anger. Nangong Xueyuan's entire body was limp as she leaned against his shoulder. Her entire body weight was on him. She was caught off guard and was almost pushed away. She stumbled a few steps before she managed to steady herself. She used her sleeve to wipe the tears off her face. She had a resolute expression on her face, completely different from her previous weak and delicate self. When An Yesun saw her stumble backward, he wanted to reach out to support her. However, he couldn't bring himself to do so and hesitated. Later, when he saw that she didn't fall, he gave up and didn't plan to ask her anything.
Nangong Xue stared at him with her clear eyes. She smiled coldly, just like a lone chrysanthemum in winter. An Yesun felt like he had nowhere to go under this kind of gaze and didn't dare to look straight at her.
Nangong Xue said with conviction, "A straight foot is not afraid of a crooked shadow. Since you haven't done anything wrong, why should you be afraid of gossip? I only treat you as a good friend. You also know that my heart has long since been given to Senior Martial Brother. If you also believe those rumors and think that I have improper thoughts about you, then you're looking down on me. Just now, I lost control for a moment. So what? You only have Menglin in your heart. No matter what, you won't betray her. Then you can face me openly. Alright, all this time, I've been wrong about you. If I knew that you hated me so much, I wouldn't have foolishly approached you in the future. Do you think I like to do this kind of thing that brings contempt to myself? "
An Yesun almost blurted out, "I don't hate you." Nangong Xue was startled. She had always been amenable to coaxing but not coercion. After hearing his gentle reply, her righteous expression instantly crumbled. She was somewhat gratified, but also somewhat curious. She asked, "You … what did you say just now?"
An Yesun looked slightly embarrassed. He stared at the corner of the room and said, "These words … I'll only say it once. It's up to you whether you want to listen or not. I've never thought that you were annoying. On the contrary, you're one of the few people who are willing to treat me with sincerity. Let's not talk about Demon Jiang. Xuan Shuang, that little rascal … has repeatedly put on an act in front of me. It's not that I can't tell, it's just that I'm not interested in exposing him. But it's not easy for him to be able to put on an act that suits my tastes and makes me like him. Other people are either afraid of my martial arts, so they pretend to be subservient to me. Or they hate me to the core. Every time I see them, they curse me to go to hell sooner. Dealing with these people all day is not only tiring, it's also extremely boring. The words I've said to you in the past few days probably add up to more than what I've said to other people. I'm cold to you because I've always treated people this way. It's not that I look down on you. I've told you before that I don't like to talk. There are many things that I don't want to say even though I have thoughts. But sometimes, when I listen to you, you're actually able to express some of the ideas that I haven't formed yet. Your ideas happen to coincide with mine. I admire your eloquence. "
When he spoke, his voice was soft and he spoke quickly. It was as if he was mumbling to himself in a room. Nangong Xue listened attentively. She heard every word clearly. She said, "Treating people coldly is perhaps a way for you to protect yourself. It adds to your mysteriousness so that others will revere you more."
An Yesun said, "Yes. It's very advantageous to always be unpredictable. Of course, the unknown will cause people to panic. But I hate those hypocrites. They sing praises in front of me, but behind my back, they make things up and curse me out of nothing. It wouldn't be too much to kill them all. Actually, I'm not … really … I'm aware of how well other people treat me. It's just that no one treats me with sincerity. Whether it's the mission given to me by the Hierarch, or whether I kill people or not, it doesn't matter to me. I'm just a walking corpse. But you … although you're from a righteous sect, you're not completely bound by the rules. You're not like that Shixiong of yours, who's just a pathetic puppet. You're worthy of admiration. I don't regret knowing you, and I also hope that you can live well. "
Nangong Xue was pleasantly surprised. Of all the praises she had heard in her life, none could compare to this. She said, "Can … can you say it again? I really like it! "
An Yesun's face was no longer bashful. He regained his usual arrogance. He said coldly, "I told you I'd only say it once. If you didn't listen, then forget it. "Nangong Xue's face lit up with joy. She said," I heard it, and I'll remember it in my heart. Ai, thank you very much. After hearing your words, I feel much better. "An Yesun said," It's all nonsense. What's there to be happy about? It's better if you forget it as soon as possible. "
Nangong Xue didn't care that he was deliberately making things difficult for her. She took out a package from her side and placed it on the table. She untied the knot and inspected the package. She said, "I'll be going to attack the Sacrifice Shadow Sect tomorrow." Her tone was resolute and decisive, leaving no room for negotiation. Just like when she informed Li Yijie, she was only sending him a message.
An Yesun heard her finish and raised his head to look at her coldly. His expression became calm again. He said indifferently, "Don't go. Li Yijie's plan isn't precise, so there's no chance of success. Demon Jiang isn't as easy to deal with as you think. "
Nangong Xue could hear a trace of concern in his cold voice. She smiled and said, "If we have to be certain of victory in every battle before we can march, then who knows how long it'll take. Even if there's danger, my Shixiong … I want to stay by his side and face it with him. Actually, you don't have to give yourself too much of a burden. You're leading us into the Sacrifice Shadow Sect as the enemy's general. You must be very impressive in front of your former subordinates. "
An Yesun sneered, "Impressive? Why don't I feel that way? If one day you're the one leading the attack on Mount Hua's main peak, let's see how you'll be able to show off then! "
Nangong Xue said, "Our Mount Hua Sect is doing well. We haven't done anything bad and we haven't provoked anyone. Who would want to make things difficult for us? Why would I betray the enemy and lead them to the main peak? "An Yesun sneered," Hmph, so? " Nangong Xue was startled. She finally understood that he was asking about the mentality of a traitor. She was thinking about how to explain herself when An Yesun said, "If you haven't done anything bad, then no one will take the initiative to provoke you? Do you think that all the destroyed sects deserved it? "
Nangong Xue thought about Shadowless Mountain Villa, which had been destroyed for no reason. The reason was because of a non-existent treasure. She deeply felt that the Devil Cult was cruel and merciless. She shook her head and said, "No, I didn't say that."
