Danger!!!
He controlled the situation from the very beginning, gradually shattering and rebuilding Jiang Wan's spirit, while Ning Feng, who had been maintaining a smile, froze in shock.
Guh.
Silently swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Ning Feng seemed to see a red light flashing above his head!
I saw it...
I see my own omen of death shining!
Don't panic!
Ning Feng entered a state of high alert at this moment, and his thoughts began to race wildly!
This is a death trap question, a truly deadly question.
If things don't go well, Ning Feng feels he might have to start all over again.
When faced with this life-threatening question, Ning Feng hesitated for a moment before speaking directly.
He chose...
To be honest.
"Uh, I just..."
Maintaining his stiff posture, Ning Feng suppressed his embarrassment and, albeit haltingly, managed to finish his sentence:
"Yes, I did just... hug someone."
ah!
Once I said it, I died.
In that instant, Ning Feng felt his cultivation level rise.
They've evolved from digging out a three-bedroom apartment with their toes to the ultimate level of digging out a detached villa.
After enduring immense inner turmoil, he finally understood just how high the entry barrier was for the profession of "Sea King".
At least in terms of mental fortitude, many people will be eliminated.
It was really embarrassing.
"...Oh, I see."
However, unlike the pointed questions he had asked, Jiang Wan's reaction was not strong.
There was no sudden scream or roar, nor did she slap Ning Feng directly. She simply tightened her arms around Ning Feng and pressed her body closer to his.
She already knew the answer when she was holding Ning Feng.
Jiang Wan did not ignore the faint fragrance of other women on Ning Feng's body.
Not to mention, her ear was right next to Ning Feng's heart just now, so she couldn't have missed that brief missed beat.
Now that Jiang Wan had already received the answer, all she was asking about was Ning Feng's attitude.
What she wanted to know was whether Ning Feng would tell her the truth.
Guh.
Seeing that Jiang Wan only hugged him tightly and did not explode, Ning Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew he had made the right bet.
Being able to admit it so frankly, Ning Feng certainly wasn't recklessly acting without any confidence...
Or rather, from the moment he truly made up his mind to pursue Shirin, he was already prepared for it.
He actually had some confidence in the outcome.
Ning Feng wasn't confident he could force Jiang Wan to accept it; he didn't intend to "persuade" her like he had just done.
Rather, it's because Jiang Wan most likely won't treat this matter as a serious issue.
Please note!
This isn't because Jiang Wan has any special fetishes or anything like that; it's just the prevailing attitude in the world.
The world's views on marriage and relationships are, well, quite open-minded due to some historical legacies...
No, it's really open, or rather, there are very few restrictions.
From the disappearance of the gods and the regaining of control of the world to the present day, only a little over a thousand years have passed.
A thousand years is not a short time, but it's not a very long time either.
For an individual human being, a thousand years is an extremely long time, enough for dozens of generations to reproduce.
But for a group, there are not many things that can be completely changed over a thousand years.
Unlike Earth, the development of ordinary people's society in this world is not a gradual process, nor are there many extraordinary men who descend from the sky to bring about enlightenment and ideological reform.
Especially under the covert influence or even manipulation of a series of awakened organizations, any "danger" that could bring about subversive consequences will be considered and investigated, and the final decision will be made on how to deal with it.
As a result, some ancient and harmless customs have been preserved.
Whether it's polygamy, polyandry, or small groups engaging in mutual pursuits, these all exist.
As long as they love each other and enjoy being together, no outsiders will gossip or criticize.
However, due to limitations such as financial resources, these customs exist in ordinary people's society, but there are not many examples.
This is more common among awakened individuals who possess power.
Even if the weak are unwilling to admit it, the strong do indeed occupy more resources.
In a world with extraordinary power, the privilege of the strong being respected and able to act recklessly is somewhat limited by the Watchers, but appropriate privileges still exist.
Moreover, in order to promote population recovery after the war, anything that could promote population growth was encouraged and praised.
Not to mention, there are quite a few humans who have mixed bloodlines of extraordinary beings, and they are more or less influenced by the nature of these bloodlines.
Do you really think that only dragons live freely?
Over the course of a thousand years, people's acceptance of this kind of thing has actually been surprisingly high.
What happens to you has nothing to do with me, and what happens to me has nothing to do with you.
Everyone does whatever they want.
This world is hard to describe as backward or advanced; it simply exists as it is.
The problem isn't me, it's the world...
Ning Feng was lost in thought, while Jiang Wan finally composed herself and asked softly:
Do I know her?
"Perhaps it's something like, you've met them but don't recognize them?"
Ning Feng wasn't entirely sure if Jiang Wan and Xi Lin knew each other, but Xi Lin definitely knew Jiang Wan's name, though their specific relationship was unknown.
"Hmm...where are we now?"
