Falling in Love with a 500-year-old female elder - Chapter 8
Chapter 8: Nan Xiyue’s temptation, the beauty is so unlucky
“Er…you two are…”
Upon hearing the gentle greeting, Ning Chuan furrowed his brow and glanced toward Nan Xiyue and Elder Fei Long.
“Mr. Ning, I’m one of your listeners, and I happen to live next door to you,” said Nan Xiyue with a slight smile.
“Oh, is that so? Miss, what’s the matter?” Ning Chuan nodded, curious about the request.
Looking around, Nan Xiyue smiled and said, “Can you please spare some time for me, and go out with me and let’s have a chat alone?”
Ning Chuan hesitated for a moment. However, he quickly realized that he needed to go to the money bank to retrieve some money anyway, so he nodded and said, “Okay, as your wish, if you are free now.”
With that, Ning Chuan led the way, heading towards the inn’s exit. Nan Xiyue exchanged a knowing wink with Elder Fei Long, who was standing beside her, and then gracefully followed Ning Chuan.
Observing the two of them walking side by side, Elder Fei Long couldn’t help but smile wryly and touched his nose, silently acknowledging the budding connection between Nan Xiyue and Ning Chuan.
“It seems that the holy daughter will not give up until she finds out the details of Ning Chuan,” Elder Fei Long said, feeling helpless.
Yesterday, he contacted the intelligence organization in the Heaven-Saint Palace to investigate Ning Chuan. Early this morning, news came from the palace. The result was that they could only trace Ning Chuan’s presence back a month ago when he suddenly arrived at the Seven Blessings Inn as a storyteller. As for Ning Chuan’s biography before that, it was completely blank! This Ning Chuan seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
The fact that even the renowned and powerful Heaven-Saint Palace couldn’t uncover the details of Ning Chuan left Elder Fei Long and Nan Xiyue utterly astonished.
Especially Nan Xiyue, and it piqued her curiosity even further about Ning Chuan. She felt a mix of offense and intrigue, wondering what secrets could be hidden within him that even the prestigious Heaven-Saint Palace couldn’t unravel.
And so, the scene mentioned earlier unfolded, with Nan Xiyue approaching Ning Chuan to spend some time alone with him, hoping to learn more about the mysterious figure who managed to remain elusive even to the highest powers in the world.
During the daytime, Lin’an City was quite lively with people coming and going, creating an endless flow of activity. Ning Chuan and Nan Xiyue walked side by side on the street, strolling at a leisurely pace. There was a palpable sense of romance between them, like a couple out on an intimate walk.
Nan Xiyue didn’t rush to speak but instead turned her head slightly to look at Ning Chuan’s profile. In the sunlight, his side face appeared fair and handsome, with distinct and chiseled features—a straight nose, sharp eyebrows, and starry eyes. The play of sunlight created mottled spots on his face, adding an indescribable charm to his appearance.
For Nan Xiyue , this was her first time being so close to a man, and she found herself couldn’t help but carefully observing him. It was also the first time she had paid such close attention to a man’s features, mesmerized by his captivating appearance.
But as the Holy Daughter of Heaven-Saint Palace, of course, she was not a naive young girl and it was impossible for her to be captivated just by a man’s handsome face.
She was just considering – Ning Chuan, why does this young man know so much? Who the hell is he?
“You seem unfamiliar. Are you not from Lin’an City?” Ning Chuan asked casually.
Nan Xiyue snapped out of her thoughts, a smile on her face as she explained casually, “You’re right, Mr. Ning. I’m actually from the Lan family in the Capital City. My father sent me to Lin’an City to lay low for a while as he had some issues with the bureaucrats in the provincial governor’s office.”
“Oh~.”
Ning Chuan nodded and asked, “Then Miss Lan, what do you want to discuss?”
Hearing this, Nan Xiyue pretended to be careless and replied:
“No big matters, but I’m curious about Mr. Ning because you look so young, yet you possesse profound knowledge, like the vast sea. You can effortlessly name five or six talented individuals who surpass Jiang Chenfeng in skill and ability.”
“I’ll just mention it casually. Those with a discerning eye recognize the truly gifted, and the wise can see their true wisdom,” Ning Chuan said with a smile.
At the same time, he guessed in his heart that she is probably Jiang Changfeng’s devoted fan girl, who is coming to stand up for him.
He recalled this novel that he read in his previous life, Jiang Chenfeng gained a large number of fans because of his good look and well-designed characters.
“He is undoubtedly a distinguished scholar; his words carry immense weight,” Mr. Ning replied
Nan Xiyue laughed and laughed, then asked tentatively:
“Mr. Ning listed five or six names of heavenly pride. I don’t know Jiang Chenfeng, but have you ever met them?”
“I’ve never seen them before.” Ning Chuan said calmly.
Hearing this, Nan Xiyue couldn’t help being even more curious.
Nan Xiyue asked with a thought, “Since you had never seen them, how did he know about these deeds?”
Mr. Ning replied, “Speaking of these people, I have little knowledge. I have only known well about Nan Xiyue, the holy daughter of Heaven-Saint Palace.”
“According to the rumors, Nan Xiyue rarely appears in front of people these days, how do you know her?”
After hearing this sentence, even she couldn’t help feeling a little nervous. There was a mix of anticipation and a slight fear in her emotions.
She had always been indifferent to what outsiders thought of her; her arrogance was well-known. However, for some reason, she found herself intrigued to know how this mysterious Ning Chuan would evaluate her.
“Nan Xiyue ?” he spoke politely.
Ning Chuan was taken aback for a moment. He hadn’t expected that the girl in front of him would inquire about Nan Xiyue.
After recalling the plot of the fantasy novel from his previous life, Ning Chuan carefully responded, “Nan Xiyue’s talent is unparalleled. When it comes to her talent, she can rightfully be called the number one in the world.”
Hearing this praise, she couldn’t contain her joy.
She inquired, “Does this Ning Chuan think so highly of her?”
However, the next moment, Ning Chuan sighed and reiterated his previous words:
“All I can say is, how unlucky a beauty she is.”
“It’s a pity that she was born with a bumpy road and faced numerous challenges in life.”
“Despite having a promising future, it all crumbled as it was ruined by those closest to her, leading to a tragic end where her body and soul were exterminated in the world.”
“As well, all I can say is, how unlucky a beauty she is.”
Bang!!!
In the blink of an eye, Nan Xiyue froze in place as if struck by five thunderbolts!
