"Lian Yue, calm down!"
Nangong Changming was like a mouse seeing a cat. He trembled subconsciously. Then he let go of the back of Gu Junlin's neck like an electric shock and explained, "I'm here to send you an invitation!"
Nangong Lian Yue moved lightly and walked to him. After looking at him suspiciously, she asked Gu Junlin for confirmation: "Is that so?"
"So..." Gu Junlin said vaguely. Although Nangong Changming's words were a bit out of tune, the invitation letter was indeed sent. This shouldn't be considered cover-up, right?
Nangong Changming breathed a sigh of relief and secretly gave Gu Junlin a look of approval worthy of a good brother.
"With my identity and status, do I need something like an invitation letter?" Nangong Lianyue glanced at the red invitation in Nangong Changming's hand and said with disdain.
Regarding these words, Nangong Changming did not deny it. The Nangong family is one of the four strongest forces in the Cang Yue Empire. As the sons of the family head, they are descendants of powerful forces who have reached the stage. Who doesn't know them? This face is a status symbol!
Nangong Changming smiled and said: "It's a matter of face. We can don't want it, but they can't deny it."
Nangong Lianyue hummed lightly but did not refute.
"Brother Gu, these are some elixirs that will help you refine your body. See what else you need. I'll send someone to find it later." Nangong Changming turned to look at Gu Junlin and took out a space ring.
Gu Junlin took the ring, his mental energy swept away, and his eyes lit up.
Nangong Changming was very sincere and did not interfere with him in terms of training resources. The elixir inside was enough for him to reach the second level of body refining.
"Thank you, Brother Nangong. These are enough for a short time." Gu Junlin put away the ring.
"Okay, let's talk about anything on the way." Nangong Lianyue bumped into Gu Junlin hard, came to the door, and pointed out: "I haven't eaten breakfast yet, I'm starving, I'm going to eat."
Gu Junlin touched his nose. He spent a whole day with his master yesterday and was still resentful of not cooking...
"That being said, I'm also hungry." Nangong Changming hurriedly agreed, looking like a coward.
…
The heads of the Qin family and the Nangong family are internal, and the Ji Mo Division and the Ji Mo Division are external. The southern border borders the Demon Realm. Therefore, although there is a Ji Yao Division in the Demon Hunting City, the leader is the Ji Mo Division.
Today's Tianjiao Banquet was hosted by Ji Mo Si.
A luxurious garden.
There is an endless stream of geniuses gathered here, appearing one after another.
Among the three, Nangong Lianyue walked in the front. She unceremoniously found a seat near the front and sat down.
Then she rolled up her skirt sleeves and elegantly picked up a white spirit fruit the size of a fist, put it under her delicate lips, bit it in small mouths, and chewed it slowly, showing a ladylike temperament.
Gu Junlin was dumbfounded. Is this a woman's acting ability?
If the scene when he first met Nangong Lianyue was like this, could he still regard her as an unruly and willful young lady?
Seemingly noticing the surprise in someone's eyes, Nangong Lianyue showed a soft smile on her pretty face, handed the bitten spirit fruit to Gu Junlin's mouth, and said gently: "Junlin, this fruit tastes good, do you want to try it?"
Gu Junlin's Adam's apple rolled and his back felt cold. What did this girl want to do?
After getting along for a while, Nangong Lianyue is far from the unruly character she initially thought, but she is definitely not compatible with being gentle and virtuous. With such a considerate look, what kind of medicine is she selling in the gourd?
Nangong Lianyue's bright eyes were smiling: "Jun Lin, don't you like this?"
Just when Gu Junlin was still wondering if the other party wanted to take revenge for not cooking yesterday, Nangong Lianyue's dissatisfied voice came to his ears:
"You should eat, there are many people watching around you!"
Hearing this, Gu Junlin glanced around with his peripheral vision, and sure enough, many people were watching here.
They were whispering to each other, but they used their spiritual power to isolate the sound. No matter how good his ears were, he couldn't hear the content.
However, he roughly knew what these people were thinking, and also understood what Nangong Lianyue meant, so he took a bite of the spiritual fruit where there was no gap: "Well, Lianyue tastes really good."
"I think so, it's so delicious!" Nangong Lianyue said softly, but the force of biting the fruit suddenly became stronger, making her look fierce.
She was dissatisfied with Gu Junlin's behavior of avoiding the bite just now. Was this because he disliked the place where she had eaten?
If Gu Junlin knew what Nangong Lianyue was thinking, he would definitely accuse him of being wronged. He was just trying to prevent the eldest lady from settling the scores in the future, so as not to find trouble later and accuse him of stealing saliva...
The main purpose of this trip is to announce the relationship between Gu Junlin and Nangong Lianyue to the outside world. Now that the two have completed their intimate interaction in front of everyone, Nangong Changming feels that it is time for him to appear.
He first cleared his throat to attract the attention of the people around him, then stood up and generously introduced Gu Junlin's identity to them:
"The person next to Lian Yue is my sister-in-law, the new uncle of the Nangong family! His name is Gu Junlin, and he comes from a hidden family. I hope you will take good care of me in the future."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. They were just guessing about the kind of man who could be gentle to the rumored third lady of the Nangong family who had a bad temper. However, they didn't expect Nangong Changming to directly give the answer.
He also specifically emphasized that he was the new uncle. Did he terminate his engagement with the young master of the Qin family? In other words, is the Nangong family planning to fall out and regret the marriage?
For a while, everyone had different thoughts, and their desire to eat melon was high, but on the surface they still held their fists and congratulated:
"Mr. Gu and Miss Nangong are so talented and beautiful, they are truly a match made in heaven."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Gu's outstanding appearance has never been seen before. Brother Nangong, your title as the most beautiful man in the human world should be transferred to you now."
"Brother Li, you remembered wrongly. I am not the most beautiful man in the human world, but the most beautiful man in the three worlds!"
After Nangong Changming glared at the man, he smiled and said: "But the owner has indeed changed. From the first in the Three Realms to the second in the Three Realms."
"We haven't seen each other for several years, but your narcissistic character has not changed at all." The man in red robe, whom Nangong Changming called brother Li, toasted and invited him to come over for a chat.
"Jun Lin, I will leave my sister in your care." Before leaving, Nangong Changming did not forget to say something loudly to emphasize their relationship.
In front of so many people, Nangong Lianyue couldn't help but blush, awkwardly changed the subject, and whispered to Gu Junlin:
"While Sister Chuxue is away, this guy is definitely going to stir up trouble again."
Gu Junlin smiled and said nothing. There were some things that Nangong Lianyue could complain about, but it was difficult for him to say them.
Suddenly, the crowd became restless.
Outside the forest garden, there were vague words that Mr. Qin had arrived.
Gu Junlin followed the sound and saw an imposing young man wearing a python robe walking through the stone gate and into the garden.
Qin Zijiu was like a little follower, walking behind the man in the python robe with his head hanging down, his eyes full of fear.
Among the crowded crowd, a prodigy from the Qin family jumped out. He walked up to the young man in python and whispered a few words in his ear. In front of everyone, the young man in python robed turned his head and scolded: "Useless thing!"
Qin Zijiu lowered his head and did not dare to refute.
The young man in the python robe flicked his sleeves and strode towards Gu Junlin.
Nangong Lianyue saw that the other party's group was aggressive and the person who came was not kind, so she whispered: "That person is Qin Ziju's eldest brother Qin Huiyang. Don't say anything later, just leave it to me to deal with it."
Gu Junlin couldn't laugh or cry. Was he being protected by a woman?
