Chapter 83 Trial and Exploration
Ningfu tested Yue Niang in order to find out how important Yue Niang was to him and what role she played beside him.
If Yue Niang is just a sharp blade, then she must be prepared to be on guard, because this sharp blade may stab her in the future.
But her question sounded a bit like a woman being jealous.
Zong Si's voice was as orderly as usual, with a bit of lazy coldness. Although he was patient, he did not mention it directly: "If I had found Yue Niang, you would not be here today."
But it was clear that he still didn't intend to bring up the past.
"I'm curious about your past with Yue Niang." Nymph looked at him directly.
Only then did Zong Si frown.
People who always keep things to themselves naturally don't want to analyze their own private affairs. To Zong Si, what he said was undoubtedly crossing the line.
What's more, they haven't reached the point where they can be honest with each other yet.
Ning Fu continued quietly, "Because of her betrayal in the past, the prince still feels resentful until now, so he doesn't want to talk about the past, right?"
This question was actually too direct. If it were Yue Niang, she would be more tactful even if she wanted to find out about another woman.
However, Ning Fu could be so frank because she didn't think there would be a future with Zong Si.
And the man Ye noticed this.
Zong Si put down the math and arts booklet she had finished, with a look of scrutiny in his eyes for a moment. Although he tried his best to conceal and control it, the coldness on his face did not dissipate.
Ningfu looked at him without showing any weakness, to see if he would compromise. If he was willing, she would have a better idea of how to act in front of him in the future.
The love between men and women is essentially a game of mutual competition.
"Afu is trying to test my bottom line towards you." Zong Si said lightly in her ear. He recognized her, but he didn't like her being like this.
"I just want to know about Yue Niang." She smiled, "Let me guess, the prince originally planned to marry Yue Niang, but Yue Niang used her beauty to seduce you before, but she was working for someone else. The prince might be able to accept someone planting spies around him, but he can't accept that his woman belongs to someone else."
"My woman?" Zong Si pulled the corner of his mouth, suppressed his displeasure, and said lightly, "This is the first time I'm with you. How can she be considered my woman?"
"Physical and emotional are not the same thing," said Nymph.
"I am not a piece of wood. I also have women I find beautiful. When I was young, I admired her appearance, but that doesn't mean I necessarily intend to possess her." Although Zong Si answered, his attitude was cold.
Ning Fu knew in her mind that the change in Zong Si's attitude was not because of Yue Niang, but because he realized that she was testing his tolerance for her, and he still gave her an answer.
Although he was not very clear in describing Yue Niang, Ning Fu guessed from the answer that Yue Niang was more useful to him in official matters at the moment.
No one knows what will happen in the future.
However, Ning Fu thought that they would definitely have an affair in the future. Zong Si and herself had been separated for many years, and if he had a woman by his side and lived with her every day, it would be hard not to fall in love with her, not to mention that he also thought Yue Niang was beautiful.
Seeing the cold atmosphere, Nymph stood up, took her cloak, and said, "I'll go back first."
Zong Si frowned and said, "Now that Fu Jiahui has gone down the mountain, how are you going to go back?"
In fact, this already showed that he didn't want her to leave.
"The journey is not far. I can just walk on." Nymph said politely.
Zong Si didn't say anything, and Ning Fu opened the door of the wooden house. The cold wind blew on her face, which was a little painful. She took a deep breath and walked out.
Although the snow was not deep, the road was slippery. She had not taken two steps before her foot slipped and she sat on the snow. Fortunately there was a layer of snow, so it didn't hurt.
Just as Ningfu was about to stand up, someone picked her up sideways.
They returned to the cabin again, but he threw her on the bed and covered her. Ning Fu frowned as she looked at his face so close to her. Zong Si unbuttoned her collar, peeled her out of her wet clothes, and bit her shoulder. It hurt a little, but not too much, and it was a little numb.
He couldn't describe how he felt, he just knew that she knew clearly that he didn't want her to leave, but she deliberately wanted her to leave anyway.
Nymph looked at his red ears, frowned, and whispered: "It hurts."
Zong Si immediately let her go, but after a moment he couldn't help but move closer to kiss her, from her eyes to her earlobes, to the corners of her lips and her chin, pecking and twisting her gently, this time very gently.
When he saw her fall just now, his first reaction was heartache, and he seemed to feel some pain himself.
It was as if he had once thought that she was his wife in the previous life, and he had developed a protective mentality, which was subtle but real.
"You and I have just started, and you are already thinking about gaining the upper hand," Zong Si said coldly.
In fact, it may not be impossible in the future, but it is not the right time yet.
"Three times the limit, if you don't behave yourself, I won't meet you again." Ning Fu frowned and said.
"It's my fault." Zong Si paused and said.
"The prince will not let anyone get the upper hand," said Nymph.
"I will tolerate my wife in the future." Zong Si said.
Ning Fu couldn't help but smile with a hint of sarcasm. This was really a way of flattering herself. It was not like she had not been his wife before, so she knew his character very well.
In his previous life, he was as cold and indifferent as a madman with few relatives.
Zong Si looked at her expression, thoughtful. Her reaction seemed like that of someone who had been his wife.
On second thought, what Lu Xingzhi said might not be true.
The two of them were silent for a while, each with their own thoughts.
Zong Si saw that her eyes were still sparkling, and he couldn't help but feel impulsive, but he couldn't offend her, so he had to find other ways to consume his energy, and said: "I'm going to practice sword for a while."
Nymph stayed in the house for a while and then left.
Although she did not understand swordsmanship, she knew Zong Si's swordsmanship, which was very rare and could be compared with his. Even an outsider could see the strength and cleverness.
"The prince followed King Xuan and has great martial arts skills." Ning Fu exclaimed.
"My father was extremely strict with me when I was young. If I didn't learn something within a few days, I would be punished. The punishments in the military camp meant I had no choice but to learn." But when I recall it now, it no longer hurts at all.
"If a girl wants to learn, will it be too difficult?" Nymph asked seriously.
"With your strength, I'm afraid you can't bear this hardship." Zong Si put away his sword, walked towards her, and said, "A Ning has always been interested in these things, but she can't persist."
"If I really want to learn, could you let me try?"
"Yes, but you have to wait until I figure out a set of skills that suit you." Zong Si pondered for a moment and said, "Then learn from me for a year or two, and self-defense will not be a problem."
Ningfu thought of the horse riding and archery in his previous life, which he had figured out in order to teach students in accordance with their aptitude.
"Will it take that long?"
"If you want to really learn swordsmanship, ten years is not enough, one or two years..."
Zong Si paused without making any expression and couldn't help but look at her.
He was not a patient man with outsiders, but he seemed willing to polish her, this rough diamond.
And it seemed that after thinking about the ten years he had been with her, he didn't reject it. On the contrary, he felt that it was the most normal thing.
"Although it will take a while, the training won't be that hard as I'll be with you." Zong Si suppressed the frightening thoughts in his mind and said after a moment of silence.
