Chapter 49 You Choose
Ning Wuxie was stunned on the spot, and his head was buzzing.
Immortal cultivator couple - Taoist couple!
Did Xuan'er really believe this and think of him as her husband? !
"No, no, no, no!"
Although Ning Wuxie has lived two lives and has a thick skin, he couldn't help but feel his cheeks getting hot when facing Xuan'er, who was shy and full of spring in her eyes.
Too innocent!
Xuan'er's eyes showed no disgust or fear, but pure nervousness and excitement!
She was just confirming her position in her brother's heart.
If he is really a Taoist couple, a wife... then, what can she do?
He is the only brother in the world who is good to me...
She can only accept it!
"No, no, Xuan'er, you misunderstood."
Ning Wuxie let go of the hand that was stroking Xuan'er's face as if he had been electrocuted, and his body retreated.
"We are not Taoist couples, we are good siblings."
"Brothers and sisters cannot be married, absolutely not!"
"But, you told them two days ago that I was your Taoist partner..." Xuan'er asked in surprise.
"That was to act for them..."
"But after they left, you said the same thing to Bai Zhou?"
"That was also acting! I just wanted that little guy to listen to me!"
Ning Wuxie blurted out anxiously.
After listening to Ning Wuxie's argument, Xuan'er was silent for a while, and then seemed to remember something, grabbing Ning Wuxie's collar and pulling herself over.
"Then, is it brother and sister or Taoist couple?"
"Brother, you said that Taoist couples are the most important people for practitioners, then what about brothers and sisters? Is Xuan'er the most important person to you?"
Although she lowered her head to Ning Wuxie, Xuan'er raised her little head to ask, but she was full of momentum. Her mouth was slightly flat, her eyes were wide, and her delicate voice was raised a few points.
Ning Wuxie's mind was confused again.
Is this little girl stupid or smart? She just misunderstood the situation, but suddenly the angle is so tricky!
"Uh... this..."
Ning Wuxie scratched his head. How to explain this?
Tell her that siblings are closer than Taoist couples, then will she learn the things that Taoist couples do in the future and come back to ask Ning Wuxie why he didn't do it with her?
Ning Wuxie's head hurts a little from thinking about it.
"If siblings are not as close as Taoist couples, then I still want to be your Taoist couple!"
Seeing Ning Wuxie didn't say anything, Xuan'er threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.
Ning Wuxie's heart softened immediately, and he stroked Xuan'er's back and gradually calmed down.
"Xuan'er, siblings and Taoist couples are different, and cannot be compared like this."
"The feelings between siblings and Taoist couples are both very deep. But there can be many siblings, but Taoist couples are unique to each other. Confirming a Taoist couple is a decision that only adults can make."
"But now in my heart, Xuan'er's feelings as a sister are the most important, more important than a Taoist couple."
Ning Wuxie whispered softly, feeling Xuan'er's tense body in his arms gradually soften.
"Really?" Xuan'er didn't raise her head, buried her face in Ning Wuxie's chest, and made a muffled sound.
"Really, in terms of feelings, we are not Taoist couples, but we are better than Taoist couples."
"Xuan'er, you are still young now. When you grow up a little bit, I will teach you what a Taoist couple is..."
Ning Wu suddenly choked and swallowed his saliva.
"When the time comes, you can choose the relationship you want based on your feelings for your brother, okay."
These words finally comforted Xuan'er completely. She raised her head, her eyes were full of water, and tears were rolling in the corners of her eyes.
"Okay!" She burst into laughter, and all her doubts and insecurities finally disappeared.
After coaxing her for a while, Xuan'er finally fell asleep peacefully, and Ning Wuxie was relieved.
In the words just now, he actually left a leeway secretly.
If, at that time, Xuan'er really, really chooses to be his Taoist partner...
He only said that Xuan'er can choose, but did not say that he would definitely accept it.
He would refuse.
The reason for this is that Xuan'er is still innocent and ignorant, and he does not want to and will not take advantage of her.
But this is not the main reason. Xuan'er's appearance is the best in the world, her immortal Taoist body is highly cultivated, and she is so good to him. If she is really interested in the future, it seems to be natural to form a Taoist partner.
However, Ning Wuxie knows that Xuan'er is not just Xuan'er.
She is also Jiang Ningxuan.
That cold and ruthless empress.
His warm love for Xuan'er for a few months or years can hardly melt the ice in her memories of five hundred years in her previous life.
When she wakes up and finds that she has become Ning Wuxie's Taoist partner, she will be furious and start a killing spree...
Looking at Xuan'er sleeping peacefully in his arms, Ning Wuxie kissed her forehead quietly.
Jiang Ningxuan is an unpleasant and domineering guy, but Xuan'er, in Ning Wuxie's heart, is the cutest little girl in the world.
Even he couldn't deny it.
…
Early the next morning, when the sun was high in the sky, Ning Wuxie woke up slowly.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he felt something was wrong.
He reached out and touched the quilt, and it was empty.
He sat up instantly and rushed to the steps barefoot, but saw Xuan'er downstairs wearing a large cloth apron, holding a knife in her hand, sitting on a small stool and clumsily peeling potatoes.
Bai Zhou lay on the back of her feet, wagging his tail comfortably.
"Brother!" Seeing Ning Wuxie wake up, she excitedly raised the potato in her hand and waved it.
"I'm making delicious food for you."
Ning Wuxie breathed a sigh of relief and felt warm in her heart.
"What are you doing cooking at this age? Just let me do it."
He put on his slippers and walked downstairs, reaching for the knife and potatoes in Xuan'er's hand.
"No, I'm going to cook you a delicious dish I discovered before!"
Xuan'er twisted her body and covered the potatoes to prevent Ning Wuxie from reaching them.
"What kind of food?"
"Boil the potatoes! After boiling the potatoes until soft, sprinkle them with salt or chili powder. They are delicious. Grandpa often makes them for me!"
Xuan'er said excitedly.
"..." Ning Wuxie was speechless for a moment, but after thinking about it, he still followed her intention and said:
"Then I'm looking forward to Xuan'er's craftsmanship?"
"Yeah!" Seeing that Ning Wuxie trusted her, Xuan'er's eyes lit up and she nodded excitedly.
When the "delicious food" of boiled potatoes and salt was actually made, Xuan'er realized how unpalatable it was.
In the past, she had nothing to eat and was often hungry. Potatoes and wild vegetables were often eaten in her stomach. If it had a little salty taste, it would be a delicacy in the world.
After being adopted by Ning Wuxie, although the food he ate was not delicacies from the mountains and seas, it was considered nutritious and balanced home-cooked food, which he had never dared to think about before.
Now, on a whim, she wanted to make a "delicious dish" for Ning Wuxie that she knew how to make, but she found that the food was astringent and bland, making it almost difficult to swallow.
It was completely incomparable to the food Ning Wuxie gave her.
"Brother, don't eat it. This food doesn't taste good at all..."
Xuan'er reached out to grab half of the potatoes in Ning Wuxie's hand, pouting with an apologetic look on her face.
"No way, I think it's delicious." Ning Wuxie took another big bite.
"Stop coaxing me, this really doesn't taste good...Brother, go and cook, I won't make any more trouble."
Xuan'er lowered her head and whispered embarrassedly.
Ning Wuxie's words really couldn't deceive her, because she saw even the white porridge baring her teeth at a cooked potato in the bowl, unable to eat it.
Ning Wuxie smiled and touched her head: "Xuan'er is willing to cook for me, I'm already very happy."
"It seems that I will be able to enjoy Xuan'er's blessing soon~"
He joked as he stood up to cook.
"I will let my brother enjoy the happiness!" Xuan'er suddenly said excitedly, as if she was suddenly poked by something.
"I will definitely let my brother enjoy his life. He will have whatever he wants and eat whatever he wants!"
Ning Wuxie picked up the spatula and said casually:
"What can I want? All I want is Xuan'er. I just want Xuan'er to always be Xuan'er and always by my side."
quiet.
Xuan'er didn't respond to herself.
Ning Wuxie didn't dare to look back. She felt her cheeks were a little hot and cursed herself for saying the wrong thing.
Until the meal was ready and brought to the table, Ning Wuxie saw Xuan'er sitting blankly on the chair, her little face flushed.
