Chapter 404 Don’t Go, I Promise You
"Wuwang, I want to talk to you."
Chi Jiujiu listened to the chirping of cicadas and birds around her, and her mood gradually calmed down.
"Okay, wine, follow me."
Wuwang responded gently, then turned around and led the way.
The two of them walked through the bamboo forest path together and finally arrived at the door of the small building.
"Squeak-"
Wuwang waved his hand to break the ban, then gently pushed open the door.
After the door opened, an elegant hall came into view. On the side of the hall, there was a spiral staircase leading to the second floor.
Chi Jiujiu followed Wuwang up to the second floor.
There are no walls here, the floor is supported by several pillars, and a huge screen blocks the incoming light.
As far as the eye can see, the bamboo forest outside the house is swaying gracefully.
Near one end of the screen, there are wooden tables and chairs, a guqin and several pots of green plants, exuding a fresh and refined atmosphere.
It makes people feel a kind of quietness as if time has stood still.
This small building is very much in line with the temperament of its owner.
"Jiujiu, please sit down."
Wuwang walked to the table and chairs, bent down to pull out a chair for the woman. The wide sleeves of his layman's robes fell on the armrests of the chair, creating a unique sense of beauty.
It was an action of serving someone, but Wuwang did it with extreme elegance.
"it is good."
Chi Jiujiu sat down as requested and instantly felt like she had turned into a noble princess.
Wuwang became her most loyal knight.
"out--"
After Wuwang sat down next to Chi Jiujiu, he waved his sleeves towards the table.
A pair of exquisite peach wood clogs suddenly appeared on the table.
The size is right, the edge of the clogs is carved with mysterious runes, and the body of the shoe is printed with two beautiful peach blossoms.
Wuwang handed the shoes to the woman and said, "Jiujiu, do you like them?"
Chi Jiujiu was surprised, "You didn't make this yourself, did you?"
He actually brought her a pair of shoes.
This man really does keep his word.
"Yes." Wuwang said in a low and magnetic voice, "Summer is approaching now. If you are afraid of the heat, you can wear it. Besides not falling off, it also has special functions."
"Oh no, my little bear slippers are lost."
Chi Jiujiu felt a little embarrassed when she met the man's tender eyes.
"Don't you like it?"
Wuwang paused and waved his sleeves again.
Another pair of shoes exactly like the bear slippers appeared on the desktop.
"I also made the same style. If you don't like that pair, then we can try this pair. If you don't like either, I'll make you a new one."
Chi Jiujiu:!!!
She quickly stopped him, "Thank you Wuwang, I like it very much. But you really don't need to trouble me."
She swept her spiritual sense and put the two pairs of clogs into the Dzi beads.
Seeing that the woman did not refuse the shoes he made himself, Wuwang's eyes were almost filled with affection.
Jiujiu, this is the first time you are willing to accept something from me.
He looked at her with gentle eyes as she faced him, her delicate white face smiling at him, her slightly tied up hair letting down a few long curls, draped over her thin shoulders and swaying playfully towards him.
Wuwang wanted to hold the girl in his arms for a moment.
No, I can't offend Jiujiu.
Wuwang suppressed the desire in his heart.
Thinking of what she said outside the house, he asked, "What did Jiujiu want to talk to me about just now?"
Chi Jiujiu smiled and said, "Wuwang, I have recognized the strange people you mentioned last time. Did you... already know their identities?"
"Yeah." Wuwang remained expressionless.
Chi Jiujiu continued, "My parents also know about the Mark of Destiny."
"What did they say?"
Wuwang's eyes suddenly narrowed, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
"They asked you to marry me." Chi Jiujiu looked at Wuwang seriously, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.
She wanted to play straight with Wuwang.
She admitted that she now secretly liked Wuwang.
If he is willing to marry, everyone will be happy.
If there is no unreasonable refusal, she will not force it.
At worst, everything will go back to the original plan.
She accompanied Shen Mojin for just a few decades, and when Wuwang's inner demon could no longer be controlled, she died with Wuwang.
"Is what Jiujiu said true?"
Wuwang looked at Chi Jiujiu's little face with burning eyes.
Chi Jiujiu said sincerely, "I didn't lie to you."
"Then when will you terminate the contract with Shen Mojin?" Wuwang's peach blossom eyes were bright and his seductive features were filled with sweetness.
The attitude of the Wuji couple was beyond his expectations.
However, whether he marries or not.
As long as he can stay with Jiujiu forever, be by her side, and make her smile like a flower, why should he care about worldly formalities?
"I——" Chi Jiujiu looked away.
She looked at the bamboo forest around her, and after a moment, she turned around and looked directly at Wuwang.
"I don't plan to cancel the contract with Ajin. My father said that the two seals in my body can be refined and transformed into Yin-Yang Dao seals."
"But this requires you to marry me and work with Ajin to refine the mark."
ah....?
Let him get married, so this is what it means.
She actually went to such lengths for that man!
She sacrificed her dignity to serve two husbands!
Since she likes Shen Mojin so much, why does she think he is Wuwang?
A tool for her to use.
Or is he a slave male servant crawling at her feet, wagging his tail and begging for mercy?
Wuwang turned his back to the screen, and his whole body stiffened as if he had been struck by lightning.
His dark brown eyes, where Chi Jiujiu couldn't see, were filled with emotions.
Chi Jiujiu keenly noticed that Wuwang was sad.
"Wuwang, I know these words are shameless and humiliating to you."
She couldn't help but feel distressed and ashamed.
"But if you are willing to marry me, I will love and like you with all my heart."
"Together, let us save the powerful inner demon and prevent the disaster from happening."
"If you refuse, just pretend I never said anything."
Chi Jiujiu's voice became lower and lower, and her tone became weaker and weaker.
Until the next sentence, it was barely audible.
"Jiujiu, if I refuse, will you point your knife at me one day?" After a long time, Wuwang spoke lightly.
His empty gaze fell on the tenacious green bamboo outside.
The emerald leaves on the green bamboo are lush and green, sparkling with a delicate luster.
But his mood was mixed, as if he had fallen into a dark abyss.
Chi Jiujiu was silent for a few seconds and said, "Yes."
Her tone was firm and resolute, as if she was ready to face all the consequences.
"Will he be willing?"
A hint of complexity flashed across Wuwang's face.
"I do not know."
Chi Jiujiu shook her head gently, "Ajin has gone to survive the calamity. I will tell him about this when he comes back."
"Is this the result of your careful consideration?"
Wuwang turned his gaze back to Chi Jiujiu, his tone was cold and his eyes were dark and less gentle.
Chi Jiujiu gritted her teeth and said, "Yeah."
After she answered, Wuwang fell into complete silence.
There was an unfathomable darkness in his eyes, as if he could see through her completely, yet it was as if he wasn't even looking at her.
Just looking through her and into the distance.
There was an aura of deathly silence surrounding him, as if he was the only one left in the world, isolated from everything around him.
His elegant and handsome figure was shrouded in thick mist, appearing lonely and mysterious, making him unapproachable.
"Wuwang, I'm going back."
Chi Jiujiu waited for half an hour, but seeing that Wuwang remained silent, she didn't dare to disturb him any further.
She simply stood up and took out the teleportation talisman with her spiritual sense.
"Don't go, I promise."
A slightly trembling, magnetic voice emanated from Wuwang's throat, and the next second, Chi Jiujiu's arm was tightly grasped by him.
