Chapter 1288: We Are Husband and Wife
Originally, Ning Chen thought that Xiao Han would say nothing, but who could have known that Xiao Han actually revealed everything, and not only that, but also disclosed the identities of Ning Chen and the others.
"Another world? They are people from the Divine Realm?"
Xiao Han shook his head, thought for a moment, and then spoke: "Not the Divine Realm; that is a place that does not exist in this space."
Miss Hongxiu nodded as if she understood: "Then that means they are all from that place. Aren't there three more? Where are they?"
Miss Hongxiu was asking Ning Chen; she was very smart and could tell from Xiao Han's description that this Ning Chen was not only their leader but also deeply trusted by Xiao Han.
She wanted to know about Xiao Han's situation over these many years, and getting on good terms with Ning Chen was essential.
"They went shopping, and just in time, it's about that time." Saying this, Ning Chen patted Little Qiongqi, who was being lazy on his shoulder, and said, "Bring them here."
Little Qiongqi stretched, returned to his own world; although he was being lazy, his spirits were high. This time he said nothing, flapped his wings, and instantly vanished from the spot.
Miss Hongxiu's face was full of surprise: "The ferocious beast Little Qiongqi?! It is rumored to have disappeared for some time; I never expected it to be by your side."
Now Miss Hongxiu was even more curious about Ning Chen; what kind of person was this, that he could tame the ferocious beast Little Qiongqi?
You must know, he was the most unruly of the Four Great Ferocious Beasts. Nor was there no one who, because of this "most," had attempted to tame him; unfortunately, from ancient times to the present, no one has ever succeeded.
The other ferocious beasts have all had experiences of being tamed; although they are all free now, only Little Qiongqi is that specific one who walks alone.
If the news that the ferocious beast Little Qiongqi had been tamed were to spread, it would surely shock the entire Immortal Capital; the Four Great Sects would all rush over to recruit people.
Not long after, the room door was knocked upon; Miss Hongxiu flicked her hand, and the door opened out of nowhere; Gu Yanqi and the others appeared at the doorway.
The moment Gu Yanqi appeared, Miss Hongxiu stared straight at her.
Gu Yanqi did not notice Miss Hongxiu's gaze; the joy of shopping made her face flush red, and she hurried to Ning Chen's side, wanting to show off her results.
Lin Yi also naturally came to Ning Chen's side; the items were all in his space, so not coming was impossible; moreover, Lin Yi also wanted to properly show Ning Chen that there were truly too many novel things in this world.
Most of the things Gu Yanqi bought were clothes; one must say, her taste was indeed very good, and most of them were expensive clothes.
And most of what Lin Yi bought were small trinkets.
The two of them took turns, one after another, showing Ning Chen the things they had bought.
After showing one, Lin Yi would put it away, then take out a new one, so the surroundings were not messy; only Lin Yi seemed rather busy.
Miss Hongxiu watched the people before her in surprise; clearly without using magical power, they could put things away and then take them out again; what other magical abilities did these people have?
Facing Huo Jinglin calmly closed the door and sat beside Xu Chenchen; he hadn't bought much, but he also bought some clothes, and moreover, he had bought them for everyone.
It could be said that during this shopping spree, only Facing Huo Jinglin brought things for everyone.
Gu Yanqi and Lin Yi spent a long time before finishing the display of the items.
Ning Chen, whose eyes were already dazzled, wanted to say nothing.
But seeing the expectation in Gu Yanqi's eyes, Ning Chen reached out, patted her head, and said gently: "The clothes look very good; they suit you very well."
With Ning Chen's words, Gu Yanqi immediately beamed with joy, feeling that her shopping results this time were excellent.
And Lin Yi, standing nearby, also looked at Ning Chen expectantly, hoping to receive a word of praise.
Ning Chen could not withstand such a burning gaze and could only perfunctorily say: "Not bad."
Now Lin Yi was not satisfied; he trembled, pointing at Ning Chen and said: "Brother Ning, why do I only get one 'not bad'? You, you, you; I, I, I."
Miss Hongxiu nearby let out a "pfft" of laughter.
Now, Gu Yanqi and Lin Yi finally realized that a woman in red had appeared here.
Miss Hongxiu smiled at the newly arrived few: "Hello, my name is Miss Hongxiu; I grew up with Xiao Han since childhood."
Gu Yanqi had a very good impression of Miss Hongxiu, so she replied: "Hello, my name is Gu Yanqi."
Lin Yi was naturally the atmosphere-maker; let alone facing such a beautiful woman: "Hello, hello, my name is Lin Yi; the one over there is named Facing Huo Jinglin."
Miss Hongxiu smiled very happily; she found that if these people were taken out individually, it seemed that except for Gu Yanqi, they were all a bit strange, but put together, they were exceptionally harmonious; it felt as if they had a magnetic field belonging solely to themselves, truly very magical.
"Miss Hongxiu? You grew up with him since childhood? Childhood sweethearts?"
"Just call me Miss Hongxiu; judging by the situation, I should be older than you; you can call me Sister Hongxiu. Childhood sweethearts? What does that mean?"
Gu Yanqi also didn't expect that this world actually didn't have the term "childhood sweethearts," so she explained: "It means growing up together since childhood, and having very good feelings for each other."
"I see; then we truly are childhood sweethearts. What about you? Are you and Ning Chen also childhood sweethearts? Your feelings for each other are very good too."
Miss Hongxiu could see that there was definitely something between these two; if anyone said these two were not a couple, she would die before believing it.
Sure enough, upon hearing Miss Hongxiu's words, Gu Yanqi's face turned directly red, like a boiled rabbit.
"S-Sister Hongxiu, we, we two did not grow up together, so we are not childhood sweethearts."
"Eh? Then what is your relationship?" Miss Hongxiu looked at the two with obvious ambiguity on their faces.
Gu Yanqi, her face red, didn't know how to say it.
