Chapter 2: Novice Gift Pack!

Whoosh~

Xu Nian'an turned around, took off his own dark red coat, and draped it over the woman.

Perhaps she sensed Xu Nian'an's gaze, or perhaps it was the coat covering her.

It instantly made her recall the scene of the struggle just now, and Xu Sanshi's ferocious face.

Jiang Nan Nan's small body trembled like a frightened little rabbit.

Looking at her state of extreme shock, Xu Nian'an felt somewhat helpless.

Although he really didn't want to disturb her at this time, at this moment.

But there was no other way; everything he had done before needed an explanation, and the explanation he had to give was Jiang Nan Nan.

That's right, it was Jiang Nan Nan. Since the matter started because of her, let him be the one to put a period to this affair.

"Jiang... Nan Nan, are you alright?"

Xu Nian'an's voice was soft, carrying a cautious, probing tone.

Seemingly hearing her nickname, Jiang Nan Nan's body stiffened and stopped trembling. She looked up, only to see a strange face.

Xu Nian'an had sharp features and fair skin. The biggest difference from his twin brother was...

He had long silver-white hair, and even his eyes were a strange blue-white, giving people a melancholic, sickly, and cold feeling.

Xu Nian'an lowered himself, grabbed Jiang Nan Nan's shoulders with both hands, and seemingly gently helped her up.

Secretly, however, he said slowly in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"Listen, if you don't want to experience what just happened again, be dragged back to let him succeed, and want to save your mother and leave this place, then listen to me!"

After hearing Xu Nian'an's words, Jiang Nan Nan shuddered again, looked up abruptly, and stared at Xu Nian'an with terrified eyes.

She hadn't expected that just after escaping the tiger's den, she would step into a wolf's lair.

That's right, Jiang Nan Nan had come here to save her mother.

She had originally thought the other party would make her sign a contract of servitude or something, but she hadn't expected this, and it had to be executed immediately.

This brought great trauma to her young heart.

It had been so hard for someone to appear and save her; Jiang Nan Nan had originally thought she could be free.

She hadn't expected that every word Xu Nian'an said and every action he took seemed to be saving her, but wasn't this also a disguised threat?

"Xu Nian'an, look at the good deed you've done, destroying the bloodline awakening. Can you bear the responsibility for this!"

"It's one thing that your own bloodline awakening failed, but now you've caused Sanshi's bloodline awakening to fail too. Do you know this will bring the Sect Master's wrath!"

Facing the accusations from the black-robed figures, Xu Nian'an remained calm.

"Responsibility? Wrath? Instead of thinking about how to punish me, you'd better think about whether that beast who tried to bully his brother and seize his sister-in-law should be executed!"

Bully his brother and seize his sister-in-law?

Hearing this term, Xu Sanshi, who had fallen from the Black Tortoise statue, was overcome with rage, spat out another mouthful of blood, and then fainted completely.

Seeing Xu Sanshi faint, Xu Nian'an breathed a sigh of relief.

Now it was fine; Xu Sanshi was unconscious, the bloodline awakening shouldn't be able to continue, and he could be considered to have saved Jiang Nan Nan.

However, how was he supposed to resolve this current situation?

"Xu Nian'an, you say she's your woman, so she's your woman?"

"The clan elders have tested her; she has a Pure Yin Body, meaning she hasn't been deflowered. This makes it hard for us not to suspect that you didn't succeed in your own bloodline awakening, and are now taking revenge on Sanshi!"

"That's right, that's right, I think you're just taking revenge on Sanshi. He's your brother!"

Listening to the crusade and the noisy sounds beside his ears, the leading black-robed old man looked slightly helpless, and he abruptly took off his hat, revealing an aged face.

"Enough!"

After this reprimand fell, the scene instantly quieted down.

"Xu Nian'an, didn't you say she's your person? Fine, prove it. After you prove it, you can take her away, but you must bear all the subsequent responsibilities!"

Prove it?

How to prove it?

Like Xu Sanshi, do it right here on the spot?

Xu Nian'an lowered his head and instantly locked eyes with Jiang Nan Nan.

Still using a voice only the two of them could hear, Xu Nian'an spoke slowly.

"Kiss me!"

After hearing Xu Nian'an's words, Jiang Nan Nan's eyes instantly widened.

"Don't talk, kiss me!"

"If you don't want to be dragged back and continue to be insulted, if you want your mother to be treated, if you want me to take you out, and if you want me not to be punished by the people in the family, kiss me!"

Seeing Jiang Nan Nan's wide eyes and the complex emotions within them—fear, terror—Xu Nian'an knew.

Perhaps what he had said before had caused the other party to misunderstand, but there wasn't much time to explain to her now.

He could only go down this path to the end, or rather, explain a little bit.

As for how she viewed it, how she understood it, it could only depend on what the other party thought.

"Forget it, Jiang Nan Nan, for the sake of your mother, what's wrong with suffering a little grievance?"

Jiang Nan Nan had originally planned to sign a contract of servitude when she came this time, but she hadn't expected that she wouldn't react in time. Thinking that she was about to be insulted, she had almost instinctively started to struggle.

After she reacted, she suddenly felt relieved.

She only needed to spend some time, and she could exchange it for her mother's healthy company, and she wouldn't have to sign a contract of servitude. Wasn't this even more profitable?

And... and this wasn't the person who wanted to force himself on her.

Giving it to him was better than giving it to that person who had used force and wanted to commit an outrage against her.
