"Wuwang, I want to talk to you."
Chi Jiujiu listened to the chirping of cicadas and birds around her, and her mood gradually calmed down.
"Okay, Jiujiu, follow me."
Wuwang responded gently, then turned around and led the way.
The two of them walked through the bamboo forest path together and finally arrived at the door of the small building.
“Squeak—”
Wuwang waved his hand to break the restriction, then gently pushed open the door.
After the door opened, an elegant hall came into view. On the side of the hall was a spiral staircase leading to the second floor.
Chi Jiujiu followed Wuwang up to the second floor.
There are no walls here, the floor is supported by several pillars, and a huge screen blocks the light coming in.
Looking out, you can see the bamboo forest swaying gracefully outside the house.
Near one end of the screen, there are wooden tables and chairs, a guqin and several pots of green plants, exuding a fresh and refined atmosphere.
It makes people feel a kind of quietness as if time has stood still.
This small building is very consistent with the temperament of its owner.
"Jiujiu, please sit down."
Wuwang walked to the table and chairs, bent down to pull out a chair for the woman, and the wide sleeves of his layman's robes hung on the armrests of the chair, creating a unique sense of beauty.
It was an action of serving someone, but Wuwang did it with extreme elegance.
"good."
Chi Jiujiu sat down as she was told, and instantly felt like she had become a noble princess.
Wuwang became her most loyal knight.
"out--"
Wuwang sat down next to Chi Jiujiu and waved his sleeves towards the table.
A pair of exquisite mahogany clogs suddenly appeared on the table.
The size is right, the edges of the clogs are carved with mysterious runes, and the body of the shoe is printed with two beautiful peach blossoms.
Wuwang handed the shoes to the woman and said, "Jiujiu, do you like them?"
Chi Jiujiu was surprised, "You didn't make this yourself, did you?"
He actually brought her a pair of shoes.
This man really does what he says.
"Yeah." Wuwang said in a low, magnetic voice, "Summer is almost here now. If you're afraid of the heat, you can wear it. Besides not falling off, it also has special functions."
"Oh no, my bear slippers are lost."
Chi Jiujiu felt a little embarrassed when she met the man's tender eyes.
"Don't you like it?"
Wuwang paused and waved his sleeves again.
Another pair of shoes that looked exactly like the bear slippers appeared on the desktop.
"I made the same style. If you don't like that pair, let's try this one. If you don't like either, I'll make you a new one."
Chi Jiujiu:!!!
She quickly stopped him, "Thank you Wuwang, I like it very much. But you really don't need to bother with me."
She swept her spiritual sense and put the two pairs of clogs into the Dzi beads.
Seeing that the woman did not refuse the shoes he made himself, Wuwang's eyes were filled with affection.
Jiujiu, this is the first time you are willing to accept something from me.
He watched her face him with gentle eyes and delicate fair face smiling at him, her slightly tied-up hair letting down a few long curls that rested on her thin shoulders and swayed playfully towards him.
Wuwang wanted to hold the girl in his arms for a moment.
No, I can't offend Jiujiu.
Wuwang suppressed the desire in his heart.
Thinking of what she said outside the house, he asked, "What did Jiujiu want to talk to me about just now?"
Chi Jiujiu smiled and said, "Wuwang, I've recognized those strange people you mentioned last time. Did you... already know their identities?"
"Yeah." Wuwang's expression remained unchanged.
Chi Jiujiu continued, "My parents also know about the Mark of Destiny."
"What do they say?"
Wuwang's eyes suddenly narrowed, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
"They asked you to marry me." Chi Jiujiu looked at Wuwang seriously, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.
She wanted to play straight with Wuwang.
She admitted that she now secretly liked Wuwang.
If he is willing to marry, everyone will be happy.
If she is not rejected unreasonably, she will not force it.
At worst, everything will go back to the original plan.
She accompanied Shen Mojin for just a few decades, and when Wuwang's inner demon could no longer be controlled, she died with Wuwang.
"Is what Jiujiu said true?"
Wuwang looked at Chi Jiujiu's little face with burning eyes.
Chi Jiujiu said sincerely, "I didn't lie to you."
"Then when will you terminate the contract with Shen Mojin?" Wuwang's peach blossom eyes were extremely bright, and his charming features were filled with sweetness.
The attitude of the Wuji couple was beyond his expectations.
However, whether he marries or not.
As long as he can stay with Jiujiu forever, be by her side, and make her smile like a flower, why should he care about worldly formalities?
"I--" Chi Jiujiu looked away.
She looked at the bamboo forest around her, and after a moment, she turned around and looked directly at Wuwang.
"I don't intend to terminate the contract with Ajin. My father said that the two seals in my body can be refined and transformed into Yin-Yang Dao Seals."
"But this requires you to marry me and work with Ajin to refine the mark."
ah....?
Let him get married, so this is what it means.
She actually went to such lengths for that man!
She sacrificed her dignity to serve two husbands!
Since she likes Shen Mojin so much, why does she think he is just like Wuwang?
A tool for her to use.
Or is he a slave male pet crawling at her feet, wagging his tail and begging for mercy?
Wuwang turned his back to the screen, and his whole body stiffened as if he had been struck by lightning.
His dark brown eyes, where Chi Jiujiu couldn't see, were filled with emotions.
Chi Jiujiu keenly noticed that Wuwang was sad.
"Wuwang, I know these words are shameless and humiliating to you."
She couldn't help but feel distressed and ashamed.
