Ning Qing noticed that the other person's expression was extremely complicated, as if they were brewing something.
Ning Qing's cool fingertips gently caressed the other person's very soft lips again, and she asked very seriously, "I'm just asking you, did you like the feeling just now?"
Seeing Wu Chenxi move her lips.
Ning Qing quickly spoke up again, "You must answer truthfully! Dishonest people will be punished."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chenxi swallowed her insincere words, smiled helplessly, and placed her hands on the other person's shoulders.
He began, “Young Master Ning, I am fortunate to be able to stand here and chat with you today because of your help several times. But you should also know that my current situation is not good. I do not know when or where I will die. You should find a confidante to accompany you, that is the right way.”
Ning Qing brushed away the hands that were on her shoulders, moved closer again, and gazed intently into the other's eyes. She said, "What is the righteous path? Being with you is my righteous path. What do I have to fear from worldly opinions? In public, I am the incomparably illustrious Prince Ning. But since I entered the capital, I am nothing more than a bargaining chip in the hands of others. You say you don't know when you will die somewhere. Aren't I the same?"
He paused for a moment, then continued, "I want to keep each other warm and walk together through these days that I don't know how many years are left."
After speaking, he took a few steps back and stared intently at the other person's face, as if he wanted to imprint the other person's face deeply in his heart and engrave it into his bones.
"I don't want to pressure you. I'm waiting for your answer. I hope you won't disappoint me. Even if you do, it's okay. My feelings for you won't change."
After saying that, he turned around resolutely, and his departing figure was somewhat lonely and desolate, making it hard to look at.
The moment she turned around, Ning Qing's expression was somewhat complicated, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she were lost in thought.
They simply moved away even faster, giving the impression of fleeing in disarray from a distance.
Listening to Ning Qing's words, Wu Chenxi was deeply moved. Watching the figure that was eager to escape and gradually disappeared into the distance, she stood still for a long time.
After returning to the Prince's Mansion, Ning Qing went straight to the training ground. Standing in the spacious and empty training ground, she took out Little Black Brother from the system space and tirelessly swung the long sword in her hand in the dark night.
After an unknown amount of time, his robes were soaked with sweat, and he gradually felt tired before stopping and walking towards the Blooming Flower Courtyard.
The maid Caiqing was waiting in the courtyard. When she saw Ning Qing step into the courtyard, she smiled and went up to him. "Young Master, I have prepared hot water. Would you like to take a bath first to relax your body?"
Ning Qing nodded and said, "No need to serve me."
She strode towards the bathroom, hastily tore off her already sweat-soaked robe, stepped into the bathtub, closed her beautiful, star-like eyes, leaned against the wooden tub, and let the warm water wash over her entire body.
The system then awkwardly spoke up: "Host, are you unhappy because you didn't receive a response from the mission objective?"
Ning Qing sighed deeply, thinking to herself: It's not like that. The reason she was annoyed was because the little brat looked too much like her, too much like her taste, so she thought of flirting with him to pass the time. But who would have thought that she was just acting out a passionate performance, and as she acted, she was able to empathize with him, and a sour and bittersweet feeling welled up in her heart, making her inexplicably uneasy.
What's wrong with me? Am I taking it to heart?
The system, having overheard its host's thoughts, was speechless and didn't know what to say. It silently shut its mouth, but since it didn't exist and hadn't heard anything, it silently felt sorry for the mission target for 10 seconds. Alas, poor thing, it took three lifetimes of love to slightly open the heart of this heartless succubus.
The system thought to itself: What is love in this world? It makes one want to stay far away from it.
