Chapter 88: Ning Feixuan’s Efforts Finally Paid Off
Ning Feixuan had indeed found a very good method. Mingyan had to admit that this was very helpful to him…
If Aunt Ning could really agree, then with him and Ning Feixuan working from the inside and outside, Aunt Ning would probably be played to death by the two of them.
But it was Aunt Ning who had wanted to run away first. He couldn’t really let her run away, could he?
What a joke.
“…Thank you,” Mingyan said sincerely.
Ning Feixuan bit her lip. “No need to thank me… besides, this matter is beneficial to everyone. It’s good for Master, for you, and for me. It’s good for everyone.”
Although this matter was a win-win for all three parties, Ning Feixuan did not want to get any praise from Mingyan for it, because this made her feel that she had become more despicable.
Originally, this matter was a backstab against her own master. But to get Mingyan’s praise for it… this would make her feel very shameless.
Mingyan smiled. “You don’t need to have so much psychological pressure. You and I both know what Aunt Ning’s real thoughts are. Since that’s the case, why do you need to feel that you have betrayed her?”
Ning Feixuan slowly lowered her head. Although that was what he said… she always felt that she had prioritized romance over her master… although she did think of helping her master, giving her a way out, and not wanting her master to be lonely anymore, in the end, this matter was still related to her relationship with Mingyan. So no matter how lofty this matter was made out to be, it could not cover up Ning Feixuan’s shame.
Mingyan hesitated for a while, then still reached out and held Ning Feixuan’s slender, jade-like hand. To make Ning Feixuan let go of the guilt in her heart, there was a very simple method.
Ning Feixuan looked at her hand being held, felt that strange yet familiar temperature. She couldn’t help but gradually raise her head to look at Mingyan. She opened her mouth, but she didn’t seem to know what kind of expression or emotion to use to express her thoughts. So she just stared at Mingyan blankly.
Before, she had treated Mingyan like a snake or a scorpion, but she had to maintain a faint and distant relationship with him because of their sect. It would not seem strange, nor would it seem intimate.
Mingyan was not that kind of rash person. He would never take the initiative to get too close, leaving her enough space.
Ning Feixuan thought of the past and felt that Mingyan had never been the kind of person who liked to force others. Even when he was pursuing her, he had taken the initiative to keep a distance and had not troubled her.
But later, the situation had changed. Some things had been completely reversed. The situation between the two of them had also changed from him having the intention to get close, and her intentionally or unintentionally keeping a distance, to her having the intention to get close, and him intentionally or unintentionally keeping a distance…
How pathetic of me…
But since things had come to this, Ning Feixuan did not regret it. If she had to regret something, it would only be her attitude towards Mingyan back then.
Ning Feixuan also couldn’t say what she was feeling. She stared at Mingyan blankly. After a long while, she finally lowered her head, her eyes a little moist. “I’m sorry…”
“Why are you suddenly saying sorry?” Mingyan was a little puzzled. Shouldn’t she be happy? Why did she seem a little sad now?
“Because… I thought of the past… I used to always hope to keep a distance from you. At that time, what did you think of me?” Ning Feixuan asked in a low voice.
“If I have to say what I thought, I didn’t think much. I just felt that you were very difficult to get close to. I felt that I couldn’t get any closer to you no matter what. If I shamelessly and forcefully got close, I was afraid it would make you feel annoyed, so I didn’t do that,” Mingyan thought for a while and said with a smile.
“Is that so… but, at that time, you might have been able to control yourself and knew not to make things difficult for me. But I couldn’t…” Ning Feixuan took a step forward and leaned against Mingyan. He was stunned for a moment, but after thinking for a moment, he still did not dodge and let her lean on him.
“Thank you… thank you for not dodging,” Ning Feixuan had originally thought that Mingyan would dodge, but it turned out that he had not. He had just stood there and let her lean on him.
She pursed her lips, feeling that she was about to cry. Mingyan had said before that he would give her a chance. Ning Feixuan didn’t know how he would give her a chance. But now it seemed that their relationship had indeed made great progress.
“If you want to lean on me, you can anytime,” Mingyan said with a smile.
“…” Ning Feixuan looked up, her eyes hazy and blurry. The corners of her eyes were still a little moist. She looked at Mingyan, her cherry lips moving slightly. “You… you suddenly let me get so close. I’m really a little unused to it…”
“If you don’t like it, then I can take the initiative to keep my distance from you,” Mingyan couldn’t help but smile sweetly upon hearing this.
“No! Just like this! This is very good…” Ning Feixuan immediately said in a panic upon hearing this.
Seeing her so nervous, Mingyan couldn’t help but find it a little funny. But as he smiled, he couldn’t help but think of the past, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
She really liked him. If she didn’t really like him, who would be willing to put themselves in such a passive position?
From the time their relationship had been reversed, although Mingyan had never shown any disgust towards Ning Feixuan, and he didn’t hate her in his heart, he always had a little resistance to her getting close.
But her performance, in Mingyan’s eyes, was already very good. He no longer had any reason to maintain that on-and-off relationship with Ning Feixuan.
With her giving so much, Mingyan would not be stingy either.
Ning Feixuan rested her head on Mingyan’s chest. In the past, would she have thought that one day, she would take the initiative to get close to Mingyan like this?
Absolutely not. After all, if the her of that time had known there would be such a day, how could she have treated Mingyan like she did before?
Ning Feixuan was silent for a while, and only then did she look up at Mingyan. “Mingyan, I really regret what I did before. If you have any anger in your heart towards me, then vent it on me. You can use any method.”
Mingyan was stunned for a moment. He didn’t have any anger towards Ning Feixuan. There were various reasons why the two of them hadn’t gotten together. In Mingyan’s opinion, he himself had many problems at that time, so he had not blamed Ning Feixuan for anything after that. But, what had stunned him was not this, but the phrase ‘you can use any method to vent’…
Mingyan smiled sweetly. “Can I really use any method to vent?”
Ning Feixuan was about to nod, but she suddenly paused. Soon, her beautiful face immediately flushed. It was obvious that she had also discovered that there was some problem with her statement, some ambiguity…
But in the end, she still did not take back this sentence and even bravely looked at Mingyan, nodding vigorously.
