Chapter 150 Silence
It was not until the evening that Mu Jin gradually woke up in the bathtub.
Mu Jin raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, and found that the bath water beside her had already turned cold. She picked up the cotton towel beside the bathtub and slowly stood up. After she wiped her body gently, she stepped out of the bathtub.
At this time, the evening breeze outside the window blew into the room at the right time, causing goose bumps to appear on Mu Jin's exposed skin. She couldn't help but sneeze, then she stroked her arm with her hand and hurried to the bed to find clothes to put on.
Mu Jin walked to the window and looked at the scene outside. At this time, the sun was gradually setting, and the sky was dyed a soft orange. The enthusiastic shouts of the shopkeepers on both sides of the street, the cheerful bargaining of the customers, and the laughter of children in the streets and alleys all came together.
Street vendors hold all kinds of tools to make a living and display their cooking skills with ease.
The air is filled with mouth-watering aroma, the steaming food, the golden and crispy fried dough sticks, and the fragrant and delicious pancakes, all exuding the breath of life.
Witnessing this scene, Mu Jin touched his abdomen and suddenly felt hungry.
Mu Jin turned around and walked straight to the door. She slowly opened the door and was about to step out when she suddenly found that Nangong Min was standing in front of her door.
Nangong Min found that Mu Jin opened the door. He raised his eyes with some joy and stared at Mu Jin. But as if he thought of something, his joy dimmed again.
Seeing this scene, Mu Jin's heart couldn't help but tighten. She thought, could it be that Nangong Min has been standing in front of his door all this time and never left?
It was Nangong Min who spoke first: "Ajin~"
Nangong Min didn't dare to say anything other than calling Mu Jin's name, for he was afraid that what he said would displease Mu Jin.
At noon, he blocked Mu Jin's door. Mu Jin was angry. That was the first time Mu Jin was angry with him. He was inexplicably panicked. After Mu Jin closed the door, he stood at Mu Jin's door, fearing that Mu Jin would leave him alone in a fit of anger when he went back to his room.
He understood Mu Jin's abilities. The world was so big. If Mu Jin really intended not to see him again, he might never see Mu Jin again in his life, so he didn't dare to leave Mu Jin's guest room.
"Have you been standing here and never left?" Mu Jin asked.
"Ok!"
Hearing that Mu Jin finally spoke to him, Nangong Min nodded eagerly, his breathing became a little disordered, and his heartbeat began to accelerate.
Mu Jin knew what he wanted to say, so she didn't urge him and just waited quietly.
After a long while, Nangong Min said, "Ajin, I, I...can you let me in? I want to have a good chat with you."
Mu Jin seemed to be able to smell the aroma of food emanating from the street food shop again, but she really wanted to find out whether Nangong Min, who was usually honest and obedient in front of her and would blush if he spoke a few more words to her, had been lying to her.
Mu Jin turned sideways and let Nangong Min enter her guest room.
The two sat at the tea table in the guest room. Mu Jin poured a cup of tea for Nangong Min and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. I'm listening."
Nangong Min pursed his lips and glanced at Mu Jin cautiously.
"Our Nangong Divine Sect has indeed been married to the Miao Palace for hundreds of years. I have known since I was a child that Ling'er would exchange wedding invitations with me when I inherit the position of Sect Leader, and we would get married in the near future."
At this point, Nangong Min glanced at Mu Jin's expressionless face, and his heart tightened. He knew that the more Mu Jin pretended to be indifferent, the angrier she was.
Nangong Min hurriedly explained: "But since I met you, Ah Jin, I have understood the taste of love. I dare not expect more. I just want to stay by your side for the rest of my life and be your bodyguard to protect you."
"I have no intention of returning to Nangong Divine Sect to inherit the position of Sect Master. The person that Miao Gong wants to marry is the Sect Master of Nangong Divine Sect. As long as I am not the Sect Master, then my marriage with Ling'er will be invalid."
Mu Jin sneered: "You also heard today that your cousin did not marry for you and has been staying in Nangong Divine Sect, accompanying your grandmother and waiting for you to return. Can you bear it?"
"Ling'er~she." Nangong Min sighed.
"Ling'er and I have always been brother and sister. When I knew that she would become my wife one day, I was actually unwilling in my heart. How could a sister become my wife?"
"It's just that my grandmother told me that it was my responsibility as a Nangong person. If I had never met you, I might have accepted my fate and combined with the Miaogong Spirit Girl to continue to shoulder the mission of the Nangong Divine Sect's leader."
"It's just that Ah Jin, with you, I realized that no one else matters. What do the affairs of this world have to do with me? There are so many disciples in the Nangong Divine Sect, why do I have to shoulder all of them!"
Nangong Min said as he tried to suppress his uncontrollable trembling body.
"If I have to lose you because of these missions, I would rather die on that muddy road. I would rather you had never helped me." Nangong Min said, two lines of hot tears streaming down his face.
"Since Ling'er and I haven't exchanged wedding invitations, then the engagement doesn't count. Ah Jin, you can't abandon me because of this."
"Or, I will accompany you to Yanmen Pass to find General Mu now. I will not return to Nangong Divine Sect, and let them think I am dead."
Seeing Nangong Min like this, Mu Jin actually felt uncomfortable. She knew that Nangong Min had no intention of returning to Nangong Divine Sect.
If it weren't for Nangong Ce's aggressiveness, he would probably have remained anonymous, stayed by her side, and been the inconspicuous little guard by her side.
Thinking of this, Mu Jin sighed and spoke slowly.
"At this point, Nangong Ce already knows that you are alive, and you have also contacted the elders of Nangong Divine Sect. Even if you don't go looking for them, they will come looking for you. For now, let's solve the Nangong Divine Sect's affairs first."
Nangong Min heard that Mu Jin's tone seemed to be relieved. He mustered up his courage, reached out, and held Mu Jin's hands tightly, his eyes full of anxiety.
"Ajin, I can listen to you on anything. Can you please not be angry about this matter..."
Mu Jin looked at her hands that were held tightly by Nangong Min: "Why didn't you tell me this before?"
"I... I have never thought about returning to Nangong Sect, and Ling'er and I have never exchanged wedding invitations. The most important thing is that I am afraid that if I say these, you will have concerns, and then I will never be able to be close to you in this life."
Mu Jin was a little annoyed again, and said, "You cunning one! I always thought you were the most honest! You actually have such little tricks up your sleeve!"
"Now that you are planning to return to Nangong Divine Sect, you will inevitably have to deal with the matter between your grandmother and Bai Ling'er. What are your plans?"
Nangong Min wiped his tears with his sleeve, sniffed, and said anxiously.
"My grandmother has always loved me. I will talk to her and she will definitely agree. As for Ling'er, I will also explain to her clearly that for so many years, I have only treated her as my sister and I have no filial feelings towards her. She is a sensible girl and I believe she will understand."
"Could you please not be angry with me because of this, reject me... and leave me."
Mu Jin was silent.
