Xiao Ning returned to Rong Rouxue's palace from the coast as fast as the wind. His heart was beating so hard that it seemed to jump out of his throat. Just as he was carefully closing the door, a stern rebuke suddenly came from behind him.
"Ning'er!"
Xiao Ning was startled by the sudden voice and his body trembled violently. He turned around slowly and saw Rong Rouxue looking at him angrily, her eyes full of anger and disappointment. Behind Rong Rouxue stood Xue Lian, who also had a hint of doubt and disdain on his face.
"Ning'er, where are you going?" There was a questioning tone in Rong Rouxue's voice.
Xiao Ning's heart was in a state of panic. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Nothing, I just want to go out for some fresh air."
You Rong Rouxue stared at him closely, her eyes were like torches, as if they were going to penetrate Xiao Ning's heart. Her expression was solemn and serious, making people feel an invisible pressure. Then, she signaled to Xue Lian to let him leave.
Xue Lian nodded in agreement, then walked towards the door silently. When he and Xiao Ning passed by, he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Don't even think about running away..."
After saying that, Xue Lian left the palace, leaving Xiao Ning alone in a trance. His expression became more solemn and he fell into deep thought.
You Rong Rouxue immediately walked to Xiao Ning's side, tightly grasped his hand, and pulled him into the bedroom. Her movements were a bit rough, as if she was venting her dissatisfaction. After entering the bedroom, You Rong Rouxue pressed Xiao Ning on the bed, and then sat on him. Her eyes flashed with complex emotions, both anger and tenderness.
Then, Yourong Rouxue kissed Xiao Ning fiercely on the mouth, her kiss was passionate and crazy, as if she wanted to devour Xiao Ning. Xiao Ning tried to push her away, but he found that his strength seemed so small in front of Yourong Rouxue.
After a long time, Yourong Rouxue raised her face, her eyes full of affection and love.
"Ning'er, I know you are jealous of Lian'er, but he and I are just a master and disciple. Even if I have had that idea before, it is all in the past. Ning'er, believe me, I only love you in my heart, believe me." There was a hint of pleading in her voice, which made people feel pity.
Rong Rouxue changed her angry look in the morning, and her face showed a distressing expression. Her tears rolled in her eyes, as if they would fall at any time. Her tender words flowed into Xiao Ning's heart like a spring. However, Xiao Ning was not moved by her words. He suppressed his emotions and did not let himself fall into this gentle land. Now he had more important things to do.
Xiao Ning gritted his teeth and used all his strength to push You Rong Rouxue away. His eyes were filled with anger and determination, and a low roar came from his mouth.
"Sister, I'm not jealous of you and Master Xue, I just don't want to be a canary imprisoned in a cage! I have stayed in this palace long enough! I don't want to be a captive animal!" His voice trembled, as if he was trying to suppress the pain and dissatisfaction in his heart.
It was the first time that You Rong Rouxue saw Xiao Ning so angry. She was frightened and her face turned pale, and her body trembled slightly. Then, she tried to persuade him, with a hint of anxiety and helplessness in her voice.
"Ning'er, I didn't imprison you. I just hope you can have a safe and stable place so that you can concentrate on your cultivation!" Her eyes revealed concern and worry.
"Practice? When have you ever taught me in these past month? You keep saying that you will provide me with resources for cultivation, but where are the resources? You ignore me and don't teach me anything. I can practice well somewhere else, so why do I have to stay with you?" Xiao Ning's voice was full of questioning and disappointment, and tears were flashing in his eyes.
You Rong Rouxue lowered her head silently, her heart filled with pain and self-blame. She thought back carefully, and indeed, during the time when Xiao Ning came back, she had neglected him for various reasons. Xiao Ning was able to advance to the realm of refining emptiness entirely by his own efforts and talent, and she had not given him any substantial help.
"No, Ning'er, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to forget you, it was Lian'er who..." Rong Rouxue's voice was a little choked. She wanted to explain, but didn't know where to start.
"Yes, it is Xue Lian who needs you more, but I have no complaints. I have tried my best to be a good husband. Now I am tired of this kind of life. I don't care what you do or who you are with, so please don't restrict my freedom." Xiao Ning's tone was firm and resolute, and his eyes revealed a deep disappointment.
When Yourong Rouxue heard this, she slowly loosened her grip on Xiao Ning's hand, as if she had lost all her strength. Her eyes became empty and confused, and tears slid down her cheeks.
Seeing this, Xiao Ning quickly stood up and fled from here. He paused at the door, took a deep breath, and then sighed heavily.
"Sister Yourong, you and I are not actually married, so please treat me as a passer-by in your life. If we are not destined to be together in the future, perhaps we will never see each other again."
His voice echoed in the empty room, carrying endless sadness and determination. After that, he resolutely walked out of the room, leaving Yourong Rouxue alone to guard the empty and silent room. She looked so lonely and helpless, as if she had been forgotten by the whole world.
When Xiao Ning left, a figure behind the room silently looked at Xiao Ning's back, then stood up and walked into the room. It was Yourong Xuanya, and her eyes revealed a trace of worry and helplessness. She looked at Yourong Rouxue, who had no expression on her face, and said in a deep voice:
