"My dear disciple, I would never lie to you, no matter who else I lie to!" Tian Nanxing blinked. "But my dear disciple, what do you want with my senior brother?" Tian Nanxing kept calling Nangong Ziyan his "my dear disciple," clearly treating her as his own.
"Master, do you know that there is a person named Tian'er by the side of Venerable Yunxiao, who has a pair of red eyes?" This was what Nangong Ziyan wanted to know the most.
“Tian, Tian’er…?” Tian Nanxing’s lips twitched. Wasn’t that Tian’er right in front of her?
Tian Nanxing stared at Bei Minghaotian, his eyes twitching, but Bei Minghaotian refused to give him a single hint.
Bei Minghaotian felt a warmth in her heart; the ice in her heart seemed to melt away. She had always remembered to look for him.
"Yes! Do you know where he is now? Is he doing well? Is he married?" Nangong Ziyan asked, blushing. For some reason, whenever she thought of Tian'er, she couldn't help but think in that direction.
"Marry, marry, marry a wife...?" Tian Nanxing's eyes widened. Did she come to find Tian'er to marry him? Tian Nanxing was overjoyed.
Bei Ming Haotian stopped and looked at Nangong Ziyan in surprise, not expecting her to ask this question.
"If you knew he wasn't married, what would you do?" Bei Ming Haotian asked with a wicked smile, looking at Nangong Ziyan with amusement, though his heart was actually full of gratitude.
"What can we do? Of course, we should do what needs to be done," Nangong Ziyan said somewhat embarrassedly, lowering her head and not daring to look at Beiming Haotian.
"I've heard you mention that man named Tian'er. After you find him, do you think you'll marry him?" Bei Ming Haotian asked the question that had been on his mind. Although it was a casual question, he was the one who most wanted to know the answer.
Tian Nanxing glanced sideways at Bei Minghaotian. Why didn't this kid tell this girl his true identity? Did he have some other concerns? Maybe he should talk to him. This girl seemed gentle, kind, and lovely. He couldn't let her slip away. Hehe! She would be his good disciple in the future.
"I wouldn't say I want to marry him, I just want to know if he's doing well. Besides, given his age, he should be married by now!" Nangong Ziyan said with some disappointment, looking down. She had been trapped in the South China Sea Glazed Palace for sixteen years and didn't know what was going on outside. Her father had cut off all contact with the outside world, otherwise she wouldn't have secretly escaped.
Seeing the disappointment on Nangong Ziyan's face, Beiming Haotian felt a pang of heartache. He wanted to tell her the truth, but when he thought of his terrifying appearance on the night of the full moon every month, he lost his confidence.
Tian Nanxing kept giving him meaningful glances, urging Bei Minghaotian to tell Nangong Ziyan the truth, but even though his eyes twitched several times, Bei Minghaotian still acted as if he didn't see it. Tian Nanxing was so anxious! He really wanted to crack open this kid's head and see what he was thinking.
"How about this? Tell me where Tian'er is, and I'll become your apprentice." Seeing Tian Nanxing's hesitation, Nangong Ziyan understood that he didn't want to tell her. She could only make a deal with him because it was her sixteen-year-old wish. If she didn't see him, her heart would never be at peace.
