“It’s like this, senior sister. I’ve said that I’ve fallen in love with you since the first time we met. Actually… this sentence is a lie.”
As he spoke, Victor slowly raised his head and they looked at each other.
“What… do you mean…”
“What I mean is that senior sister might have misunderstood what I meant. I said these words to encourage senior sister to not be so introverted. Now that senior sister has improved, I need to confess.”
Hearing this, Nalan Lengling suddenly felt her nose turn sour. She nodded and said with a sobbing tone, “Go ahead.”
“Hmm… actually, senior sister, I didn’t fall in love with you at first sight. On the contrary, I thought you’re a very strange person.
“Why do you always have a straight face? Why do you always have to keep others a thousand miles away? Won’t you feel lonely this way?
“I wanted to connect with senior sister more.
“This started because of the talisman decree last time. Due to some coincidences, we could only ask for senior sister’s help. To be honest, I didn’t expect senior sister to agree back then. After all, senior sister doesn’t seem rich.”
After saying that, Victor secretly glanced at Nalan Lengling. After confirming that the latter did not have any emotional fluctuations, he continued,
“Later on, senior sister and I went to the Hundred Thousand Mountain with them. On the way, I still felt that senior sister was too cold and aloof. Sitting on the flying crane, you were like a fairy, unworldly. Therefore, through barbecue, I took the chance to get closer to senior sister.
“Unexpectedly, it went very smoothly. Although senior sister’s attitude did not change much, we still managed to get slightly closer.
“Later on, there was the beast tide and the mountain treasure. I almost lost my life, but it was a blessing in disguise. I understood that senior sister was just not good at expressing herself and wasn’t a cold-hearted person.
“Later on, I expressed my feelings to senior sister.
“I think that this is where the misunderstanding began.”
Victor sighed softly, he continued, “It can’t be denied that I was moved by senior sister, so I thought of speaking my heart before I died. However, I didn’t expect my words to actually trouble you. On the way back, you weren’t even willing to speak to me.
“Don’t worry, senior sister. From now on, I won’t disturb you anymore.”
With that, Victor revealed a bitter smile and turned around to leave.
“Are you stupid?”
Fortunately, Nalan Lengling grabbed the corner of Victor’s clothes and said with a smile, “You’re really stupid. When did I say that I was troubled?”
“Aren’t you? However, senior sister’s attitude toward me was very cold. Even after I escaped death’s door, you only nodded and said nothing else. I thought…”
“Do I have to make it so clear? Even master can see through my intentions.”
Nalan Lengling pinched her brows helplessly.
At first, after hearing Victor’s words, she was worried that everything was just a joke and a misunderstanding. Now, the misunderstanding was about to be resolved.
She did not expect Victor to be the person who had misunderstood.
“I admit that I used to have a very bad personality. I was introverted, cold, and didn’t want to befriend others.
“Perhaps it’s because of this that I rarely truly express my inner thoughts. So, even though I was very happy when you returned, my silence on the way back to the sect wasn’t because I hated you, but because I didn’t know how to start a conversation. I was afraid that my words wouldn’t be able to convey my thoughts. I didn’t expect you to misunderstand.
“In that case, for you, I’ll take the initiative. Wang Cheng, would you marry me?”
As she spoke, Nalan Lengling took the initiative to throw herself into Victor’s arms and kissed his cheek.
This scared Victor quite a bit.
Looking at the red cheeks of the woman in his arms and smelling her faint fragrance, Victor coughed lightly and said, “Senior sister… someone is coming.”
As soon as he said this, Nalan Lengling hurriedly pushed Victor away and turned around, feeling a little flustered.
When she saw that it was Wang Cui, she felt even more uneasy.
“It’s… It’s Wang Cui.”
“Yes. Senior sister, why are you here? Wang Cheng too. What are you guys doing?”
“Nothing… nothing, we’re just chatting.”
“Chatting? Do We need to go to the back of the mountain just to talk?”
“This…”
“The back of the mountain is peaceful. The sect is really noisy now. By the way, sister, what are you doing here?”
Victor opened his mouth and solved Nalan Lengling’s dilemma.
“Oh right, it’s master. He asked me to come to the back of the mountain to look for you. I didn’t expect you to really be here. Alright, let’s return together. Also, senior sister, master said he wants to discuss the details of the competition with us.”
“Got it. I’ll go now. You can go back first.”
“Alright, don’t be too late. Master seems to be in a hurry.”
After saying that, Lian Hua turned around and left angrily.
Of course, she knew what they came here to say. Since Nalan Lengling had accidentally interrupted her once, she naturally wanted to embarrass Nalan Lengling!
Seeing Lian Hua leave, Nalan Lengling suddenly felt ashamed of her actions. She blushed and was prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, Victor grabbed Nalan Lengling’s wrist and hugged her in his arms.
“Senior sister, I want to have a taste of the blush on your lips.”
“Mmm…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Victor and Nalan Lengling kissed each other. Only after a long time did the two of them parted reluctantly.
This was her first time experiencing something like this, and it made Nalan Lengling extremely embarrassed. Her right hand continuously pounded on Victor’s chest, but judging from the current atmosphere, it could at most be considered as her acting coquettishly.
“I’m so embarrassed…”
“Sweet… mmm… fragrant… This is great…”
Victor smiled, and Nalan Lengling lowered her head.
At the same time, behind a big tree not far away, Lian Hua’s face was covered in tears. She tightly held onto the handkerchief in her hand, not allowing her tears to fall. Her expression was simply distorted beyond recognition.
One word.
She was jealous.
Utterly jealous.
“Let’s go, senior sister.”
“You’re still calling me senior sister?”
Nalan Lengling’s eyes were filled with love as she looked at Victor.
This glance made Victor freeze on the spot.
After a long time, he finally regained his senses. He held onto Nalan Lengling’s hand and said softly, “Let’s go, Ling’er.”
This sentence was naturally heard by Lian Hua.
Hence, she felt even more jealous.
Looking at the scene of Victor and Nalan Lengling walking side by side while holding hands, Lian Hua widened her eyes and sent a voice transmission to Victor.
“B*stard! You’re dead meat!”
After receiving the voice transmission, Victor suddenly felt as if a ray of light was on his back. He turned around, only to find that there was no one behind him.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing… it’s probably someone who has transformed into a sour spirit…”
“What’s a sour spirit?”
“Uh… How do I explain it? To put it simply, she’s jealous. She’s envious.”
Victor recalled Lian Hua’s thoughts and smiled.
