Chapter 38: Huang Nishang Cuts Off Her Own Retreat
In the outside world, they were just nominal husband and wife, but with the progression of this dream, they had, step by step, become a real couple. This made Mingyan a little emotional.
But Mingyan was also thinking about one thing: if the dream ends, and everyone has the related memories, then how should he explain these things to Huang Feiyan?
Although the Huang Feiyan in the dream was very generous, the Huang Feiyan in reality was not so magnanimous. She was very prone to jealousy. Before, she had been angered by Yue Ningshuang into a terrible state.
But Mingyan was also thinking about something. From what he knew at the moment, his Shizun and Huang Feiyan had relatively large changes, while Yue Ningshuang had not changed much and was no different from before. As for Huang Nishang, because Mingyan did not know her very well before, there was no reference. The only change he felt was that she seemed to be a little colder, but it was only on the surface. In fact, she was not that cold.
This gave Mingyan an idea. When everyone had no memory, what they showed was probably their original personality?
Could it be that Huang Feiyan also had the heart to be the primary wife?
As for Yue Ningshuang, it could only be said that she was the same on the inside and outside. In front of him, she really had no pretense.
Mingyan couldn’t help but sigh. When she had first approached him, he had been full of suspicion towards her enthusiastic attitude.
There was no way around it. He was used to the feeling that everyone liked to hide their thoughts in their hearts. To suddenly encounter such a direct person who did not hide her thoughts, it was hard not to have some suspicion, to think whether she had some ulterior motives. But now it seemed that he was just overthinking.
And as for why Yue Ningshuang was such a person who did not hide her thoughts and was the same on the inside and outside, Mingyan probably wouldn’t understand until he knew her real identity…
To ask how to play another person well, for Yue Ningshuang, was to completely release her other side, without any residue.
She was successful. Up to now, no one had associated her with Ning Mengru. Everyone knew Yue Ningshuang, knew that she was Ning Mengru’s disciple, but no one had ever thought that she might be Ning Mengru.
Huang Nishang was much worse than Yue Ningshuang, but she had the entire Huang family backing her. So, she was Huang Nishang, and no one would doubt her.
“Do you think this dream needs to continue?” Huang Nishang asked. “I guess the key to whether the dream ends or not is probably on your Shizun, Yue Wuxia, and Gu Hanshuang.”
“…For the time being… let’s not,” Mingyan shook his head. He thought for a moment, then added, “About the matter of me recovering my memory, don’t tell anyone.”
Especially, it must not be known by his Shizun.
Huang Nishang nodded lightly. She was silent for a while and said, “In that case, then let’s continue… to have this dream…”
“Nishang, I’m a little curious. Why did Mother send you over?” Hearing her say this, Mingyan couldn’t help but ask.
Huang Nishang said that the Family Head had asked her to come. The Family Head was Huang Junru. Mingyan and Huang Feiyan were already engaged in the real world, and in this dream world, they were even married. So the title for Huang Junru naturally became ‘Mother’. To be a little more intimate was also what Huang Feiyan had requested before.
Hearing the word ‘Mother’, Huang Nishang’s expression was somewhat subtle. “…Is that what you call the Family Head?”
“I’m also engaged to Feiyan in reality. There’s nothing wrong with calling her Mother, right?” Hearing this, Mingyan scratched his head. “Is there anything wrong?”
“Wrong… I can’t say… forget it. Whatever you want to call her, what does it have to do with me…” Huang Nishang shook her head and said, “As for the reason why the Family Head let me follow, it’s because I’m a little worried about Feiyan’s situation.”
“Is that so…” Mingyan thought for a moment, and it was understandable. After all, the matter of Feng Huang was a ticking time bomb, making it impossible for anyone to be at ease. Mingyan had no doubts.
“Nishang, what is your cultivation level?”
“I…” Huang Nishang paused. It was definitely not okay to say it was low. At that time, Mingyan couldn’t feel her cultivation; it was definitely higher than his at that time. But to say it was too high, wasn’t it a bit strange? She thought for a while and said, “I’m at the Divine Seal Realm.”
Above the Qi Sea Divine Gate was the Tai Yi Realm, and above that was the Divine Seal.
And above that were the Rotating Core and the Human Gateway.
Mingyan was shocked. “Your cultivation is so high…?”
It was much higher than Huang Feiyan’s, right?
“I am much older than Feiyan. Although we are of the same generation, I was several generations earlier than her,” Huang Nishang’s statement was very vague, but the Huang family’s seniority was originally only calculated by two generations. She and Huang Feiyan were not of the same lineage, so this statement could also convince Mingyan.
“So amazing. The first time I saw you, I was really deceived by you…” Mingyan lamented. At that time, Huang Nishang had said she had no cultivation, and Mingyan had believed her. He had not expected that not only did she have cultivation, but it was also much higher than his.
This made Mingyan can’t help but want to ask Huang Nishang’s specific age. But the words were on the tip of his tongue, and he gave up.
Why bother? Asking a woman’s age was a very delicate matter. Her age was probably far beyond his. For a cultivator, what was this age difference?
“…” Huang Nishang tilted her head. Why did I say I had no cultivation back then? I should have said I had…
“But the Huang family said at that time that they wanted to marry you to me. Although it was a fake, now… it can be considered real. I wonder if Mother is willing to really marry you to me,” Mingyan scratched his head. After all, he had to marry Huang Feiyan and the Temptress Sister. Whether Huang Junru would agree to him harming another Huang family woman, that was really not certain.
“I said before, as long as I want to marry, no one can stop me,” Huang Nishang was silent for a while, glanced at Mingyan, and said in a low voice.
“Then in that case, Mother won’t stop us?” Hearing this, a smile couldn’t help but appear on his face.
“…She can’t stop me,” Huang Nishang sighed. “But…”
“But? But what?” Mingyan was immediately alert and held Huang Nishang’s hand. “Could it be that you don’t want to marry…”
“I… it’s not… that…” Huang Nishang rubbed her forehead. Now, some things could not be cleared up. And she had admitted that she had recovered her memory. She had cut off her own retreat.
Huang Nishang… she has no choice but to marry.
“You don’t want to marry me?” Mingyan raised an eyebrow and continued to ask.
“No… it’s just that, thinking of Feiyan after she remembers, I’m afraid… she will have a lot of opinions about me,” Huang Nishang changed the subject.
