Then he leaned closer, closing the distance between them, his voice dropping. \"Look at me. Not them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan shook his head, amusement lingering in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This was meant to be a private conversation,\" he said. \"You could go and distract yourself with the children.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen rolled his eyes but didn’t move away. \"No, I’ll admire the mountains with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen had stayed away from the Vermilion Fox Clan following the coup. No one asked questions, and Wuhen himself offered nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not look angry or sad, and there was no physical evidence of the struggle....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, nobody outside of the palace was aware of the events that had taken place within the Vermilion Fox Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen simply laughed, played, lingered at Ningyan’s side as though nothing had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know...\" Wuhen spoke again, quieter this time. \"We never really talked about that night at the academy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan’s heart skipped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen’s ears twitched, his gaze shifting back to his husband. \"Even if it’s long past... perhaps we should.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan pressed his lips together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, he hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was going to elope with Meishan that night,\" The words came out more abruptly than intended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I was betrayed by Han Yunyi,\" Ningyan continued, voice steadying as he went on. \"She tampered with the chain... made sure you’d be forced to break it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers curled faintly at his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...For a time, I thought I had killed you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen stared at him and bursted into laughter as though Ningyan had just told a good joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan stared at him. \"Why are you laughing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen gradually stopped, though the smile lingered on his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s no particular reason,\" he said lightly, then laughed again, softer this time. His tails swayed behind him, betraying his amusement as his red-gold eyes settled on Ningyan. \"You were planning to elope with Lan Meishan... and you didn’t tell me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan frowned. He regretted taking Wuhen seriously at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned and walked past him. But Wuhen moved faster. His arms wrapped around him from behind, drawing him close, his face burying into the crook of Ningyan’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stopped beneath the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gentle noon wind stirred the garden, sending pale blossoms drifting through the air, falling around them like scattered petals of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I apologise... I apologise,\" Wuhen murmured, his voice softer now, stripped of its teasing edge. \"But we’ve come far from that, haven’t we?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan’s expression eased. His hands rose, resting over Wuhen’s where they lay against his stomach. \"We have.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ningyan?\" A familiar voice cut through the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan’s smile vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Yunyi stood at the edge of the garden, her robes and hair stirred gently by the wind, her posture composed, yet her gaze uncertain as it moved between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen’s expression hardened instantly. He let go of Ningyan immediately and stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\" Ningyan caught his sleeve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen paused, glancing back. A silent exchange passed between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he exhaled sharply. \"...Fine. I’ll go check on the children.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan’s lips curved faintly. \"Thank you, my troublesome husband.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhen huffed a quiet laugh and brushed past Yunyi without sparing her a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when he was gone did she step forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hands clasped tightly before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m... glad you agreed to see me,\" she said, voice low. \"You don’t know how long I’ve carried guilt for that night. I only did it because I—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t want to talk about that night.\" Ningyan’s words were calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi trembled, her eyes widening. \"Then... what—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan had already raised his hand. A purple glow flickered to life within his palm and the golden phoenix feather appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her breath caught.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"..This...\" Her voice dropped to a whisper, shock flickering across her face. \"That... where did you get that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The phoenixes,\" Ningyan replied without hesitation. \"Are you in contact with them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Yunyi’s expression tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you interact with them?\" Ningyan pressed. \"I want to know what they’re planning... and why they’re following me. Why are they trying to lure me in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi blinked, caught off guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean? I don’t—\" She turned slightly, as if gathering her thoughts, then faced him again. \"I told you before, you could unite our kind. I told you. And now...\" her gaze swept over him, \"with the strength you hold, I was right. You are capable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan’s eyes twitched faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that’s it?\" he said, his voice cooling. \"They want me to lead them and this is how they approach me? By hiding in shadows and setting traps?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi exhaled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re more exposed now than ever, A-Yan,\" she said. \"Back then, you were only a target to be killed by assassins. Now, you’re known across the three realms, a rising beast god... bound to the four great divine beast clans. Do you think they wouldn’t take notice?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan let out a slow breath. The feather in his hand dissolved into his essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...So you are in contact with them,\" he said quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi scoffed, as though the answer were obvious. \"Of course I am. If you had listened to me back then, we would already—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t want that.\" The interruption was calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ningyan stepped closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t want to rule anyone,\" he said, his voice steady, stripped of all hesitation now. \"I don’t want power struggles. I don’t want more attention, more schemes, more... expectations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze held hers. \"I have a family. That’s enough. I’m happy where I am.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi’s expression flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know you don’t feel the same,\" Ningyan continued. \"And that’s fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took another step forward and this time, the air shifted. His eyes bled into a vivid, luminous purple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if you are truly in contact with them...\" he said, voice lowering, each word stern, \"then pass this message along.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The garden seemed to freeze around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They should stay away from me and from my family. Do that... and we won’t have a problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1083,"2026-06-06T15:58:25.184Z",1,"novelbin.me","81486b6e813bd36285518188489a2db10b85aab7bb9320822430dfd2507b8549","transmigration-the-villain-wants-a-happy-end-wit-chapter-213","transmigration-the-villain-wants-a-happy-end-wit-chapter-211",228,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftransmigration-the-villain-wants-a-happy-end-wit-cover.jpg"]
