Seeing Jiang Zhige's dejected look, Nangong Rou couldn't help but smile, waved her hands and said, "Oh, brother, you misunderstood, that's not what I meant."

"I mean, I want to be your Taoist companion and your wife. From now on, we will definitely not be brother and sister anymore."

Jiang Zhige was even more shocked when he heard this, and wondered several times if he had heard it wrong.

Is it possible that Tiansha did not lie and that the things that control the mind in the fantasy world will also happen in reality?

Nangong Rou really likes herself, and not just for a day or two?

"But Rou'er, I, I..."

Jiang Zhige looked embarrassed. Now that things have happened, he will no longer say that we are brothers and sisters, but he still hesitates.

Nangong Rou turned away, pretending to be sad and said: "Brother, are you going to reject Rou'er? I am the woman who has the deepest feelings for you, and you have been attracted to me before, right?"

"Rou'er, if you can say these words, it seems that you have really grown up..."

Jiang Zhige smiled bitterly, and the thing that worried him the most happened.

Although it was difficult for Jiang Zhige to refuse Nangong Rou no matter what happened as long as his life was not in danger, this time, he really didn't know how to respond to Nangong Rou.

Nangong Rou turned around after hearing this, held Jiang Zhige's hands again, and said affectionately: "Right, I have grown up a long time ago. We have been together for eight years and know each other best. Isn't it a match made in heaven?

A pair?"

Looking at Nangong Rou's focused and sincere face, Jiang Zhige felt slightly shaken in his heart.

Just when he opened his mouth to answer, a middle-aged man walked in at an inappropriate time outside the courtyard.

The man had his hands behind his back and was dressed in a luxurious robe of green and ink. His appearance was majestic, his steps were steady, and there was a sense of arrogance between his brows.

Compared with him, Yao Qianji's original simple courtyard appears even simpler.

Jiang Zhige's eyes narrowed slightly. To be able to walk into the elder's courtyard so arrogantly, the person coming here must have an extraordinary status.

However, what surprised Jiang Zhige was that this person was not wearing the costumes of the other two sects, and he had never seen him before, so he most likely did not come from a sect within a radius of thousands of miles.

After the middle-aged man walked into the courtyard, his eyes immediately fell on Nangong Rou.

He quickly put away his arrogance, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Nangong Tuoyuan, I have met the eldest lady."

"Nangong?"

Jiang Zhige was instantly shocked. The middle-aged man's surname was Nangong, and he recognized Nangong Rou at a glance. He obviously had a close relationship with Nangong Rou.

Living with Nangong Rou for eight years, Jiang Zhige almost forgot that she might have a family.

One year after joining Tianyun Pavilion, Jiang Zhige also thought about looking for Nangong Rou's family again, but she decisively refused, claiming that she did not want to see the family who abandoned her again.

Jiang Zhige's persuasion was fruitless, and he thought she would never be able to see her family again in this life. Unexpectedly, after seven years, a man named Nangong came to her door.

Moreover, even though they have the same surname, Nangong Tuoyuan actually knelt down. Such a grand ceremony would only occur if there is no special reason and there is a huge difference in status.

Nangongrou frowned and said displeased: "Who are you? I don't know you at all, okay?"

After finally waiting for Jiang Zhige to answer, she was interrupted by a stranger. How could she not be angry?

"The eldest lady has been living abroad for eight years. Naturally, she doesn't know the villain. Let the villain explain clearly."

Nangong Tuoyuan was not angry and began to talk about the affairs of the Nangong family.

Eight years ago, the Nangong family encountered changes. Two direct descendants fought openly and secretly for the golden seal of the family head. Among them, the weaker brother was persecuted by his younger brother and had no choice but to live abroad with his wife and daughter.

And this brother is Nangong Rou’s father, Nangong Zhen.

At that time, a family of three was being hunted by many strong men, and Nangong Town was about to encounter a fight to the death. They could only place Nangong Rou in the snow and erase some of her memories. In this way, as long as the Nangong family did not find her, they would not be able to ask questions.

She is Nangong Zhen’s daughter.

After the battle, the couple was lucky enough to survive and came back to look for Nangong Rou, but she was nowhere to be seen.

Just as another group of pursuers arrived, the couple could only temporarily give up looking for Nangong Rou and continue on the road to escape.

Seven years later, Nangong Town made a comeback. Not only did it regain the golden seal of the family leader, it also wiped out the remaining party members in a short period of time and firmly established itself as the head of the Nangong Rou family.

After becoming the head of the family, Nangong Town sent many people to search for Nangong Rou around Yucheng, and Nangong Tuoyuan was a guest of the Nangong family who was good at finding people.

As early as two days ago, Nangong Tuoyuan had rushed to Tianyun Pavilion and asked the master of Tianyun Pavilion if there was anyone with the surname of Nangong. After repeated visits, only Nangong Rou met the conditions.

Nangong Tuoyuan immediately asked Yao Qianji about Nangong Rou's past, and it was not until recently that he finally confirmed her identity.

Nangong Rou, whose real name is Nangong Jing, is the eldest daughter of Nangong Town and the daughter of the Nangong family.

After listening to Nangong Tuoyuan's words, Nangong Rou had no emotion at all, nor did she miss her relatives.

"So, after eight years, why are you still looking for me?"

Nangong Rou curled her lips, her face full of disapproval.

Nangong Tuoyuan's face froze slightly, and he forced a smile and said: "Miss, you haven't seen your parents for eight years, don't you miss them?"

"I'm living a good life now and don't think about it at all."

Nangong Rou snorted softly. She had already had some memories erased. Now eight years have passed and she has no idea about her parents. How could she miss them?

Nangong Tuoyuan thought that Nangong Rou was resenting Nangong Zhen for throwing her in the snow, and said anxiously: "Miss, the head of the house and his wife put you in the snow for the sake of your safety!

"

"That's not the problem. You're really annoyed. Go back quickly."

Nangong Rou was very impatient. She had just had a suitable atmosphere with Jiang Zhige, but now it was all ruined by Nangong Tuoyuan.

Nangong Tuoyuan's heart sank even more, and he lowered his head and said: "I'm sorry, I have to obey my order, but I also ask the eldest lady to come back with me."

Given Nangong Zhen's character, knowing that he saw Nangong Rou but didn't bring him back, why not kill him on the spot?

Upon hearing this, Nangong Rou stood up suddenly and shouted angrily: "Go back with you? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Miss, you may not understand the strength of our Nangong family. Compared with Zixiao Tiancheng, which is controlled by our Nangong family, Tianyun Pavilion where you are now is simply a remote place. Staying here will only delay your future!

"

Naturally, Nangong Tuoyuan would not give up. Talking about family ties was useless, so he tempted Nangong Rou back.

"Backcountry? Do you dare to say that again?"

Unexpectedly, not only did Nangong Rou have nothing, she actually showed an even more angry expression.

She has lived in Tianyun Pavilion for eight years, with Jiang Zhige accompanying her and Yao Qianji taking care of her. She has long regarded Tianyun Pavilion as her home. How could she allow others to belittle Tianyun Pavilion.

Nangong Tuoyuan looked anxious and wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to speak.

Because in his eyes, Tianyun Pavilion is indeed a remote place.
