"My lady, you can tell me if you have any other requests," Rong Qi said with a slight smile, his eyes lowered.
Xu Nian rolled her eyes and smiled, "I want to renovate this room. Yours is too plain and looks cold and desolate, which I don't like."
Rong Qi smiled and agreed. "Alright, let's change it now. What kind does Madam like?"
"I like gorgeous things, everything." As soon as Xu Nian finished speaking, Rong Qi waved his sleeve, and divine light enveloped the entire room.
In the blink of an eye, the room's layout transformed into a magnificent and luxurious arrangement.
Even the clothes Xu Nian was wearing had been changed into gorgeous dresses.
She wore a jade crown made of pearls and jade on her head, and her neck and hands were adorned with various rare jewels. Even her clothes were decorated with a string of dazzling tassels.
Xu Nian didn't know what material these jewelry pieces were made of, but their exquisite and gorgeous appearance gave them a very expensive feel.
"You look so beautiful in these jewels, Madam. I've also prepared several boxes for you in the inner room. Do you like them?" Rong Qi's leisurely tone instantly made Xu Nian, who was a penny-pincher, feel an overwhelming fondness for him.
"I love it, I love it, I really love it so much." Xu Nian touched the jewelry on her body and smiled happily.
Help! Rong Qi is the husband of her dreams. He's handsome, rich, powerful, and the most powerful in the immortal realm.
She could never dream of having such a divine ruler as her husband!
"I'm glad you like them, Madam. These pieces of jewelry are all protective magical artifacts, so I hope you can wear them every day," Rong Qi said with concern.
With him around, Xu Nian's safety can be guaranteed for life, but nothing is absolute. There's always the fear that someone might plot against someone unintentionally, causing her to get hurt.
Rather than having him protect her all the time, it would be better to have her covered in protective magical artifacts.
In this way, it would be difficult for those people to harm him.
"Rong Qi, with the protective magic artifact you gave me, can I walk around the Immortal Realm with impunity?" Xu Nian said, stroking the bracelet on her hand with delight.
“Sure, as long as you don’t provoke the remaining Divine Lords. Even if you do, it’s fine. Your husband isn’t one to sit idly by; I’ll beat them up for you,” Rong Qi said with a serious expression.
The fact that beating people up seemed like an everyday occurrence made Xu Nian's lips twitch.
Is this person raising her like a spoiled brat?
Why would she bother those gods if she had nothing better to do?
"Rong Qi, if I were a bully, I would ruin your reputation." Xu Nian was in a great mood and no longer resisted contact with Rong Qi.
She is now in Rong Qi's hands; she can neither fight nor escape, and she still has a mission to complete.
As things stand, he seems to treat her fairly well, so she might as well just accept it.
Resistance without strength is nothing but a futile struggle.
Xu Nian has always been very clear-headed, knowing what she wants and how to achieve her goals.
She does like him, that's true, but that doesn't stop her from using him.
"So what if my reputation is ruined? As long as you're happy, that's all that matters." Rong Qi smiled indifferently. Reputation wasn't important to him; talent was.
"Rong Qi, do you think you're acting a little strange right now?" Xu Nian said after a moment of silence.
In the original owner's memories, this person was always a high and mighty god, and she never saw him once in her entire life.
But the moment she appeared, he went crazy, his eyes only seeing her. Didn't he think there was something wrong with his behavior before and after?
Rong Qi noticed the strange look on Xu Nian's face and said with a reassuring smile, "Madam, don't overthink it. People who have cultivated to my level will have some premonitions about important things in their future."
“I had a feeling I couldn’t miss you, so I came.”
“I sensed that I was your target, and I am willing to accommodate that.”
"I had a premonition that our fate was not meant to be, but I didn't believe it."
"Madam, what do you think our fate will be?"
After Rong Qi finished speaking, he moved closer to Xu Nian. He lowered his head slightly, his hot breath spraying onto her face, his eyes fixed on hers.
He wanted to see the original answer through her eyes.
"I don't know." Xu Nian lowered her head as if trying to escape. Her feelings were not as deep as his; her emotions were mixed with too many other things.
His love was too intense and obsessive, coming on strong and burning him up while also igniting her.
Seeing Xu Nian avoiding him, Rong Qi would be lying if he said he wasn't disappointed.
But the thought that the two of them would soon be together forever brought him a relieved smile.
"My lady, you don't know, but I do. Soon, we will be together for all eternity."
"You will belong to me alone, and no one will ever be able to separate us. We will... live and die together," Rong Qi said firmly.
That air of complete control made Xu Nian pause for a moment, feeling both happy and bittersweet.
She forgot everything, and she knew that he had worked hard for a very long time. He must have suffered a lot in places she couldn't see!
Xu Nian really wanted to ask him if it was worth it.
The thought swirled in my mind, but I couldn't bring myself to ask it.
Just like her wanting to go home, is all her hard work worth it?
There's no definitive answer to whether it's worth it or not; if you're willing, then do it.
“Niannian, you don’t need to feel guilty, and you don’t need to pretend in front of me. I hope you can be yourself again. You… don’t need to hypnotize yourself to love me.” Rong Qi was smiling, but his eyes revealed a deep sadness.
The sorrow vanished quickly, instantly replaced by an obsessive love.
Xu Nian looked at Rong Qi, smiled, and said nothing.
"Alright, you should rest well for the next three days. I'll come back to pick you up on our wedding day." Rong Qi left as if he were fleeing, leaving Xu Nian alone in the entire hall.
She tried walking around the main hall and encountered no obstacles.
However, whenever she tries to leave, she is blocked by some inexplicable force.
Without a doubt, it was Rong Qi who set it up.
He allowed her to move around freely, but wouldn't allow her to leave.
Xu Nian was not surprised by this.
He seemed to trust her, but he never truly trusted her.
But it didn't really matter, since in her opinion, the price he had to pay was completely disproportionate to what he would get.
Xu Nian settled down in the Cuiwei Divine Palace with peace of mind. Occasionally, some strange little gadgets and cultivation resources suitable for her would appear in her room.
She accepted it all.
On the last day, a golden wedding dress appeared in the room.
Xu Nian changed into her wedding dress, wandered around the room, and smiled at the empty room, asking, "Does it look good?"
"..."
Xu Nian didn't care that no one answered. She admired herself in her wedding dress for a while, then took it off, folded it neatly, and put it back.
Then came a long silence and waiting, with a soft sigh coming from inside the room.
Xu Nian felt the intense gaze disappear and knew the person had left; she simply raised an eyebrow.
