Chapter 37: I See Hero Guo Is Quite Handsome Too
Guo Jing immediately thanked Yue Buqun.
The latter replied that since he was staying at the Guo mansion, he couldn’t just *eat and drink for free*. If he could help, he’d do his utmost!
“Then I’ll trouble Sect Leader Yue!”
As he spoke, Guo Jing suddenly felt Yue Buqun’s gaze on him was odd.
*Must be my imagination.*
Wang Xuan, knowing the truth, smiled silently.
People are divided by beauty and ugliness!
Both Linghu Chong and Guo Jing, in looks and demeanor, were far beyond ordinary.
But compared to the weaker Linghu Chong, Yue Buqun didn’t yet dare act on Guo Jing.
For now, he could only *feast his eyes*.
On the women’s side, Huang Rong kept observing Ning Zhongze.
After all, she *knew in her heart* what happened last night.
To her surprise, despite such a drastic change, Ning Zhongze showed no outward distress.
Huang Rong couldn’t help but admire her.
Their situations were different.
Huang Rong’s involvement stemmed from poisoning and chance, while Ning Zhongze was *sold* by her own husband.
Most women couldn’t stay so composed.
*Perhaps Ning Zhongze is on the verge of breaking.*
Thinking this, Huang Rong smiled and invited, “Heroine Ning, shall we stroll in the courtyard?”
“Alright!”
Ning Zhongze nodded, following Huang Rong to another courtyard.
At first, neither spoke.
After a while, Huang Rong broke the silence.
“Heroine Ning, are you alright?”
“And you, Gang Leader Huang?”
Ning Zhongze didn’t answer, instead countering with a question.
Both being sharp, they understood each other’s meaning.
Huang Rong recounted her poisoning and chance encounter with Wang Xuan at a ruined temple.
Of course, she omitted those wild days in the ancient tomb.
After hearing Huang Rong, Ning Zhongze gave a bitter smile, saying, “You’re much stronger than me. At least Hero Guo didn’t betray you!”
Clearly, Ning Zhongze’s biggest hurdle wasn’t Yue Buqun’s *self-castration*, but trading herself and her daughter to Wang Xuan.
Though for Huashan’s revival, any cost was worth paying, emotionally, sacrificing herself and her daughter was excruciating.
“Indeed.”
Huang Rong nodded.
After over a decade of marriage, if Ning Zhongze accepted it easily, Huang Rong might think less of her.
“Gang Leader Huang…”
“No more Gang Leader Huang. Let’s call each other sisters!”
“Alright!”
Ning Zhongze nodded, then asked about Wang Xuan.
“What kind of person is he?”
“Well!”
Even the eloquent Huang Rong struggled to describe Wang Xuan.
“Sister Ning, I can’t quite say, but tonight, you’ll find out yourself!”
At this, Ning Zhongze felt her body react, her cheeks flushing slightly.
Hesitating, she swallowed her shame and asked if Huang Rong experienced the same.
With no outsiders around, and Huang Rong’s spiritual sense ensuring no eavesdroppers, she huffed, “Yes, I used to react constantly too, thinking I was some *lowly woman*. Only later did I learn it’s due to Wang Xuan’s constitution!”
She then explained the Pure Yang Sacred Body to Ning Zhongze.
“No wonder!”
Ning Zhongze understood.
*No wonder I couldn’t control myself seeing Wang Xuan.*
*So that’s the reason.*
“By the way, Sister Ning, prepare yourself mentally for tonight!”
Ning Zhongze didn’t quite grasp Huang Rong’s warning.
“He’s now at Foundation Building, while you’re just an ordinary person. If you feel uncomfortable, remind him to control his strength. I worry he’ll get lost in cultivation and overlook you!”
“What?”
Ning Zhongze froze.
*Is it that intense?*
“I’m at Qi Refining Layer Ten now, so I can handle it nightly. You’re different!”
Huang Rong explained further.
Having left the ancient tomb, she was glad to have another sister but didn’t want bad news tomorrow morning.
*Better remind Wang Xuan later!*
After all, whether Sister Ning would have the chance to speak up tonight was uncertain.
Suddenly, Ning Zhongze said, “S-Since that’s the case, good sister, why don’t we… do it together tonight?”
*What?*
Huang Rong was stunned.
*Requesting a duo on the first night?*
*Heroine Ning, you’re playing too bold!*
“N-No good?”
Ning Zhongze looked disappointed.
Though two together felt shameful, facing Wang Xuan alone was overwhelming.
With Huang Rong, an *experienced hand*, she’d adjust more easily.
“Alright then!”
Huang Rong nodded.
Though she and Li Mochou had tacitly agreed to let new sisters have Wang Xuan alone initially, this situation was different.
*Someone to share the heat might be better!*
After agreeing, Ning Zhongze sighed in relief, feeling reassured.
Until she saw her daughter, Yue Lingshan.
Her newly calmed heart rippled again.
*Wang Xuan was my daughter’s crush, yet I, her mother, got to him first!*
*What is this mess?*
*And to think, my daughter will join later?*
*That’s even more absurd!*
Ning Zhongze, who’d just reconciled thanks to Huang Rong, felt lost again.
Time flew, and evening arrived.
Huang Rong came first.
Learning of the women’s daytime pact, Wang Xuan was surprised.
*Such a good deal?*
He’d thought it would take more time.
Clearly, Huang Rong’s *assist* made this smooth.
Without it, Ning Zhongze’s reserved nature would’ve delayed a *duo* for a while!
“How should you reward me then?”
Huang Rong teased, climbing onto Wang Xuan.
Not a trace of her daytime poise remained.
“What, trying to sneak a taste first?”
“Sneak a taste? I’m just testing the flavor for Sister Ning!”
