So the gift was talking about me!
Before Ning Feng could speak, Xilin, who had remained silent in front of her friends, finally reacted.
She raised her hand and used magic to pull Ning Feng away from their encirclement, then hugged him tightly in her arms.
The two elderly women with silver hair exchanged a glance, then spoke in unison in an ambiguous tone:
"Oh?"
"Oh ho~"
Sisters, I've got some juicy gossip!
"Don't lay a hand on him, he's mine..."
At this point, Xilin paused, but swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Yes, what is it?
How should we communicate their relationship to outsiders?
He is an agent from my branch; you can't make a move against him?
Such a statement might be persuasive in other situations, but it has absolutely no persuasive power in the current context.
So, tell me... this is my lover?
There's definitely nothing wrong with their relationship, but after making this declaration, how will things be resolved in the future?
And the most important reason is that such a declaration... is really too much of a challenge for Shirin, a socially awkward homebody.
What is it?
"Yes, yes! What is it? If you don't explain clearly, we won't be able to understand."
"That's right!"
That's about it.
Ning Feng, with Xi Lin holding him by the throat from behind, silently observed the changes in the arena, knowing that it was almost time for him to make his appearance.
But just as he was about to pat Xilin's arm and speak, he found that the arm holding him not only didn't let go, but instead tightened its grip even more.
? ? ?
Sister, you can keep letting go, but please stop squeezing so hard!
I can hardly breathe...
call……
Shirin, standing behind him, slowly exhaled. She had finally made her decision after a fierce internal struggle.
Meeting the amused gazes of the others, Xilin stopped dodging and instead tightened her grip on Ning Feng's arm with a touch of domineering force, then said:
"He is my lover."
In the suddenly quiet room, Shirin did not back down and spoke again:
"This is my man."
"You should stop trying to take advantage of him."
Take your hands off me!
Ning Feng's eyes widened slightly, then he gently patted Xilin's arm.
But Xilin wouldn't back down; she didn't want Ning Feng to speak up at this time. She wanted to face it alone.
She changed a lot after meeting Ning Feng; she definitely wouldn't have done such an amazing thing before.
Even now, if Ning Feng weren't by her side, Xilin would hesitate and most likely end up saying nothing.
But when Ning Feng stood beside her, everything changed; his very presence gave her confidence.
"Let me do it by myself."
People always have to grow up, and Shirin has already taken the first step and wants to continue moving forward.
Upon hearing this resolute message, Ning Feng paused for a moment, then patted Xilin's arm again.
Shirin: ?
Why can't you understand what I mean? This time, I want to solve it myself.
In response, Ning Feng stated:
You completely misunderstood what I meant!
Help!
Sister, please stop tightening it!
I can't breathe.
Even though I can hold it in a little longer, please let me go.
We're in a free-love relationship, so please don't do anything suffocating or dangerous, thank you.
"Oh, um..."
Finally realizing the problem, Shirin paused for a moment, then sheepishly let go of his arm.
suck!
"ha……"
With his chest rising and falling, Ning Feng felt the breath of life again.
It's alive!
Since Xilin took the initiative to suggest that she handle it herself, Ning Feng naturally had no intention of refusing, but he would not offer no help at all.
He took Shirin's right hand directly, demonstrating his stance through his actions.
Her will is my will.
Faced with Shirin's serious expression, the two old women suddenly burst into laughter.
"Alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore."
"It's no fun if you get too anxious, hahaha."
Shirin: ?
The clueless elf older sister didn't understand the situation, but Ning Feng, the person involved, could see it very clearly. Her friends had long since realized the relationship between the two.
The hands they reached out just now didn't actually intend to touch Ning Feng; they were just making that gesture.
They are two kind people who hope that Shirin can be braver; they are good friends with a good relationship.
Although they didn't hide their desire to tease Xilin.
"Come, come, tell me what happened."
...
...
"Okay, then I'll leave the rest to you."
After briefly explaining the purpose of their visit to headquarters and the areas where they needed their help, Ning Feng and his group prepared to take their leave.
But before that, Sang and Jian left Ning Feng behind.
Shirin: ?
"Xilin, you go first. Let's have a private talk with him!"
"Don't have so little faith in your lover! Do you really think he'll like two old women like us?"
Was it because I lacked confidence in him?
I don't have confidence in you guys!
But finally, under the constant urging of Sang and Jane, Xilin left the room with the servants after Ning Feng nodded, turning back every few steps.
Ning Feng, however, remained in the room with a smile, somewhat curious about what the two had to say to him.
