Qian Renxue looked at Xiao Tian and said, "I truly cannot fulfill your request for a Spirit Bone of 50,000 years or more right now, but that might not be the case in the future. Let's stop here for today."
Qian Renxue handed Xiao Tian her personal token and said, "This token symbolizes my identity; it's not very useful. If you want to see me, you can enter the imperial palace with this token. I look forward to the day you change your mind!"
On the other side, Xiao Wu led Ning Rongrong into her room, while Zhu Zhuqing sighed inwardly and returned to her own room.
She vaguely knew about this matter, but for the harmony among them, she chose to say nothing.
Moreover, for some reason, when those people in the stands talked about the relationship between Xiao Wu, Rongrong, and Xiao Tian, her heart also felt somewhat blocked, a feeling she couldn't quite describe.
In the room.
Xiao Wu looked at Ning Rongrong with a somewhat complex gaze: "Rongrong, can you tell me about it?"
Xiao Wu no longer had the invisible 'dominance' she had just shown towards Xiao Tian. Ning Rongrong was her good sister, and she wanted to first understand clearly what kind of feelings she had for Xiao Tian.
Ning Rongrong took a deep breath before slowly opening her mouth and saying, "Xiao Wu, do you still remember when we absorbed the Immortal Herb? Perhaps because you finished absorbing the latest, you didn't see it, but at that time, I was so excited to see my Spirit evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda that I rushed over and kissed Xiao Tian."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu's mind boomed. In front of her, Rongrong kissed her brother, and the key was that she didn't even see it.
Seeing Xiao Wu's face gradually turn pale, Rongrong hurriedly explained, "Xiao Wu, that time was an accident, I swear! Besides that one time, I haven't done anything out of line to Xiao Tian, otherwise, may lightning strike... Wuwuwu."
Before Ning Rongrong could finish speaking, her small mouth was covered by Xiao Wu's hand. Xiao Wu said with a serious expression, "Rongrong, you can't make vows carelessly! I believe you!"
Xiao Wu then pulled Ning Rongrong to sit on her bed and slowly said, "Rongrong, I know you haven't done anything to my brother behind my back, otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to not notice it these past few months. I just want to ask you, what do you truly think of my brother?"
Ning Rongrong didn't want to deceive Xiao Wu, so she said, "I once thought in my heart that if anyone could solve the flaw in our Spirit, that is, make it evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, I would marry him!"
"So, that's why you were so excited at the time?" Xiao Wu said.
"Yes, Xiao Wu, perhaps you won't understand what the evolution of our Spirit into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda means to our Sect. This problem has troubled us for a very long time."
Then, Ning Rongrong added, "However, Xiao Wu, please rest assured, I have already thought about it. Being able to stay by Xiao Tian's side makes me very happy, and I will not do anything to let you down. If... if you are still not at ease, I can swear, or after the competition ends, I will return to the Sect alone."
As Ning Rongrong spoke, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes despite her best efforts to control them.
Both her feelings for Xiao Tian and her sisterly affection for Xiao Wu were things she valued greatly, and Xiao Wu was Xiao Tian's first woman, so she couldn't bring herself to interfere.
So, she could only suppress her inner feelings.
Xiao Wu listened quietly to Ning Rongrong's narration, reached out and gently wiped the tears from her eyes, her mood extremely complex.
If she could, she hoped she could have Xiao Tian all to herself, making him completely hers.
But looking at Rongrong in this state, for some reason, she couldn't bring herself to say 'no' completely!
Rongrong's current state was entirely due to her trying her best to suppress her true inner thoughts so as not to interfere with them, and now that she had spoken to Xiao Wu, her emotions were released, and tears naturally flowed unconsciously.
Moreover, she could actually feel that her brother also had a good impression of Rongrong in that regard, otherwise, with Rongrong's strength, it would have been impossible for her to kiss Xiao Tian.
Seeing Xiao Wu's conflicted expression, Ning Rongrong also said, "Xiao Wu, I... I really didn't..."
Xiao Wu sighed heavily and said, "Rongrong, it's too late, and besides, if you really did that, I would probably become a malicious woman in my brother's eyes, and I can't bear to..."
"Furthermore, Rongrong, have you ever thought about why you were able to kiss my brother? It's because he didn't dodge! I've long since realized that he's actually a philanderer!"
The more Xiao Wu thought about it, the angrier she got, and her voice unconsciously grew a few decibels louder, her gnashing teeth completely different from before.
Pfft!
Ning Rongrong wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and couldn't help but laugh: "Xiao Wu, you look like this, I can't help but want to laugh."
Xiao Wu shook her head and said, "Actually, I should have expected this day to come, after all, I know best how charming my brother is. My brother should also have a good impression of you. Rationally, I should stop it, but emotionally, I don't want to make you and my brother feel bad because of this matter..."
Ning Rongrong listened to Xiao Wu's words and looked at her with some surprise, "Xiao Wu, but... but if you do this..."
Ning Rongrong vaguely heard compromise in Xiao Wu's words, which made her feel relieved while also making her feel extremely complex.
She had constantly asked herself in her heart, if Xiao Tian's first woman was her, would she have the magnanimity to give him to a third party?
The answer was... she instinctively didn't want to. No woman wants to share a husband with others; some only compromise.
So, she was now somewhat unable to organize her thoughts.
Xiao Wu's compromise surprised her.
Xiao Wu's love for Xiao Tian had an even greater impact on her!
The room fell into a moment of silence.
A moment later, Xiao Wu finally composed herself and said to Ning Rongrong, "Rongrong, don't feel sorry for me. My brother, Xiao Tian, is exceptionally talented and should not be viewed with worldly eyes. He is a person with ambition and dreams to fulfill, and he shouldn't be troubled by these emotions.
So... I will not stop you two. Besides, don't those noble men also have several wives? Your father seems to be..."
Although Xiao Wu said this, Ning Rongrong could tell that the last sentence was just Xiao Wu trying to comfort herself.
She could feel the greatness of Xiao Wu's love for Xiao Tian.
The next moment, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but hug Xiao Wu, repeating one sentence over and over.
"Thank you, thank you, Xiao Wu."
