Hearing Tang Xiaobao's words, Zhiruo's heart almost broke.
Her body was trembling slightly, her eyes were red, and she still kept her head down. If you could see, you would know that her little face was now pale.
Ximen Wuyu asked directly.
Tang Xiaobao's answer was somewhat tactful, but it was still a rejection.
She was particularly afraid to face all this.
A girl was obsessed with a man, but in the end, he was not as kind as her.
That kind of blow and loss really makes people very sad and difficult to accept.
She wanted to know what Tang Xiaobao would say next.
Ximen Wuyu has said so much and looks down on her so lowly, what else does he want?
I don't want a title, I just want to be a bed warmer, which is equivalent to being a maid or a concubine...
She didn't blame Ximen Wu Yu at all, and even felt a little grateful.
It’s better this way, the sooner you die, the sooner you will be reborn. We have to face it, right?
But how would Tang Xiaobao answer?
Tang Xiaobao coughed and patiently explained, "Miss Zhiruo, I'm very grateful that you like me, but I'm really not a good man, let alone a good husband..."
If these words were put on Earth, others would be able to understand them.
But in this context, neither Ximen Wuyu nor Ximen Nangong could understand it.
In the world of cultivation, many men marry dozens of wives once they achieve success. Is there any problem with that?
Everyone has become accustomed to it.
Even the housekeeper of the Nangong family had dozens of wives, and no one said anything.
You are now the strongest in the realm of Immortal Emperor, and the entire ghost town is at your feet. What's wrong with you taking one more wife?
They can't understand.
Tang Xiaobao had to continue explaining.
He wants to make up another excuse.
"Actually, you may think I'm very powerful now, but in reality, I have quite a few enemies. Their cultivation has surpassed the Immortal Emperor realm, and they are all powerful figures. This is my secret, and I'm telling you all this. So, please keep it a secret. I don't want Miss Zhiruo to suffer with me. What if I die in the future? That's very likely to happen. So, let's just drop this matter, okay?"
"I'm not afraid. As long as I can follow you, even if it means death, I'm willing to do it."
Not knowing where she got the courage from, Ximen Zhiruo suddenly raised her head and looked directly at Tang Xiaobao bravely.
Her face was covered in tears and she looked pitiful.
sweat……
Seeing her like this and hearing her words like this.
For a second, Tang Xiaobao was really touched. He almost agreed and almost hugged the other person.
However, he soon hardened his heart again.
His excuse was half true and half false.
But he really didn't want to deceive himself, nor did he want to deceive the other party.
He had no love for Ximen Zhiruo at all.
If there is no love, how can you accept her?
What’s the difference between that and animals?
This is something Tang Xiaobao can never accept.
He is lustful, but he is also loyal.
He likes beautiful women, but he has his bottom line.
For example, he could never accept Ximen Zhiruo.
"Okay, stop talking. There's absolutely no possibility between us. If you keep talking, I'll really get angry. Are you forcing me?"
Tang Xiaobao frowned and looked a little impatient.
Of course he was not really impatient, but he had to adopt this attitude.
Otherwise, what if Ximen Zhiruo continued to pester him? Could he really marry her? How would he explain to Situ Linglong and the women waiting for him in the prehistoric continent? Also, Miss Qingluan from the Tianji Pavilion was still waiting for him in the Ninth Heaven. How could he fall in love with a new person here? You know, Qingluan gave him her virginity and is now in dire straits.
So, he had to harden his heart and refuse.
Seeing that he was a little angry, Ximen Zhiruo lowered her head in fear, wiped her tears, and then said, "I'm sorry, Master, I made you laugh. I know I'm not worthy of following you. I was too demanding and thought too highly of myself. I will never say such things again. Thank you for saving me and letting me have where I am today. Thank you for your tolerance towards my Ximen family. Thank you."
After saying that, she turned and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute!"
Tang Xiaobao subconsciously called her.
"Ah? Sir, is there anything else?"
Ximen Zhiruo didn't look back, but her heart was filled with joy.
Could it be that Tang Xiaobao has changed his mind?
"Although I cannot accept your love, I can recognize you as my sister. From now on, we can call each other brother and sister. How about that?"
Tang Xiaobao sighed and said seriously.
This is the routine on Earth.
We are not suitable to be boyfriend and girlfriend, but we can be brother and sister.
If there were a woman on earth, no woman would want to be a sister.
But here, for Ximen Zhiruo, this set of methods is very useful.
"Really?"
She turned around suddenly, her face full of joy.
It's also very good to be his sister. For her, it's satisfying.
Tang Xiaobao nodded and promised seriously: "Of course, I never lie to anyone, especially girls. I can't bear to lie to them."
"Thank you, sir."
Ximen Zhiruo said.
"Since we are brother and sister, you can call me brother from now on. I don't have any special gifts for you, so I'll give this to you."
Tang Ding Xiaobao casually handed Ximen Zhiruo a necklace that looked very exquisite.
