After sending off the guests in front of him, Nalan Ji couldn't help frowning slightly, and said, "What about Yanran? ”

Nalan Su swept around, then raised his hand and pointed.

Nalan Ji followed Nalan Su's fingers, but saw that in the corner where no one else noticed much, he saw the two young people sitting there, and he didn't know what they were talking about.

Seeing these two young people sitting together, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, it is naturally good for young people to cultivate their feelings more.

It's just a pity......

It's all gone.

As for the young people, they can't bother them.

Retracting his gaze from the two in the corner, Nalan Ji then plunged into the happy atmosphere of the banquet again.

…………

"So, what you said at the beginning is actually ......?"

In a quiet corner, Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran in front of him, and exhaled a turbid breath, how to face this woman, for the first time, he was a little overwhelmed.

After all, many of his current lives can be regarded as starting out because of Nalan Yanran in a sense, and it is impossible for him to have any normal mentality for Nalan Yanran.

It doesn't matter if it's disgust or resentment.

It's just that these are gradually let go with Xiao Yan's growth, and Nalan Yanran is destined not to be Xiao Yan's goal for a lifetime, but more like a respite in his youth.

Only by crossing the domain can she be regarded as completely crossing her former silence.

But no matter what, in Xiao Yan's mind, Nalan Yanran, who contains this layer of meaning, will be a more special existence than those ordinary women.

Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran, quietly waiting for her answer, since he realized that Miss Tanran might be Nalan Yanran, the previous conversation between Xiao Yan and Tanran was also marked with a question mark.

"-hmm."

Nalan Yanran didn't deny it, she slowly put down the wine glass in her hand, and said, "Needless to say, even I met her because of you." ”

"Because of me?"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, but he didn't understand much what Nalan Yanran meant, but Nalan Yanran didn't seem to want to say more on this topic, and he couldn't continue to ask.

Nalan Yanran was naturally angry because the reason why she knew Yao Yan was actually as Xiao Yan's whetstone, even if her self-cultivation in the past two years had made her let go of many obsessions, but this did not mean that she had been working willingly for three years just to make a three-year appointment with Xiao Yan.

She has already understood that Xiao Yan will not be the end of her life, whether she wins or loses, whether she wins or loses, she is not dead after the three-year contract.

Life is very long, and the past three years have been fulfilling enough for Nalan Yanran, and it is not a waste.

As for Xiao Yan, after the three-year contract, I think it has nothing to do with her in the future, how about love.

"It's all over anyway - for what Tan Ran said to you at the beginning, it's really the best, and you just think it's okay if I use it to tease you."

Nalan Yanran looked at the bright starry sky above her head and said.

“……”

Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran's side face and asked, "What about your conversation with my father?" ”

"You got it? - But you know it doesn't seem like a surprise, after all, you're father and son. ”

Nalan Yanran subconsciously said: "Well, seriously, I'm really sorry for my behavior three years ago, if I could do it again, I would probably choose to discuss it with your father and son in private." ”

"I know that you may not be willing to accept it, so this is naturally just talking, and I am afraid that the grievances between us will still have to be resolved on the three-year covenant."

"How do you know I can't take it?"

Xiao Yan couldn't help but say, Yao Wan just chuckled and shook his head.

"Because I myself have not completely let go of this knot, and I am not in the habit of being generous to others."

"So, it doesn't matter if you hate me, take your hatred for me and let me go."

Nalan Yanran was very open-minded when she said this, and only after saying this thing did she take a sip of the somewhat rushing wine.

The alcohol made the beauty in front of him climb a touch of blush on her pretty face under the night, Xiao Yan looked at the moving scene at this moment, and couldn't help but drink the wine in the wine glass in his hand.

"Maybe you've changed a lot in the last three years — but one thing, one thing, you're wrong."

Xiao Yan said.

Nalan Yanran blushed slightly, turned her head, and the graceful willow eyebrows like the sword in her hand wrinkled slightly, and she couldn't help but say, "Wrong? Tell me, where did I say it wrong? ”

"I never had any hatred for you."

Xiao Yan's words made Nalan Yanran's eyes widen suddenly, and she couldn't help but look at Xiao Yan, especially the eyes under his mask.

She rightfully didn't believe that a person who had been hurt like herself would say that he didn't actually hate her? How is this possible?

Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yan's eyes, wanting to see the flicker in his eyes, the appearance of the lie being self-defeating under his eyes.

But no.

Nalan Yanran didn't see the look of hiding from herself in Xiao Yan's eyes, and she didn't see anything that could be called hate.

She couldn't help but be a little confused.

"Why?"

Nalan Yanran asked this question as a matter of course.

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe you didn't hurt me in the first place, after all, you didn't completely get your wish when you wanted to get out of the marriage, didn't you?" ”

What Xiao Yan was referring to was naturally that three years ago in the welcome hall of the Xiao family, Nalan Yanran wanted to forcibly withdraw from the marriage in front of everyone, but in the end, she was intervened by Yao Yan, taught a lesson and walked away.

Although the divorce is indeed a divorce, it is indeed not a particularly glorious thing.

"Until recently, I was at most disgusted with you, and I didn't have any resentment anyway."

Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders open-mindedly and said.

And Nalan Yanran can only accept such a fact that seems a bit outrageous at first glance.

"Well, I don't know if this is what you said about being faceless and skinless, or if you are broad-minded."

"Big-hearted? Needless to say, I'm a very vindictive person. ”

Xiao Yan shook his head, to be honest, he didn't really want to talk too much with Nalan Yanran.

It's not that she's disgusted to the point of this, but no matter what, the position between the two will not change.

And Nalan Yanran also maintained such a tacit understanding with Xiao Yan, and after chatting without a word, the two began to drink with their heads bored.

No matter who the two of them are, they are not the kind of people who usually get drunk, but they just rely on the strong body and the use of their fighting spirit now to just pour wine into their mouths.

It wasn't until the end that the two who were slightly drunk separated.

After leaving Nalan's house, Xiao Yan flicked his fingers and dispelled the wine in his body.

In the next few days, there was still a competition for the Alchemist Conference to be completed, so there was not much time left for Xiao Yan, he returned to his residence as soon as possible, it was already late at night, but someone didn't sleep.

In the small courtyard, Yao Wan, who had basically not been with him for too long for a while, sat on the edge of the stone table, just raised his lotus arm to support his chin, and waited boredly.

Xiao Yan was slightly stunned, it was not good to ignore her so openly, so he had to speak up: "It's so late, isn't Miss Wan still sleeping?" ”

"Didn't you just come back? What do I sleep on? ”

Yao Wan held his lotus root arm and suddenly asked, "By the way, how are you getting along with Nalan Yanran?" ”

"That's it...... So be it. ”

Xiao Yan recalled the atmosphere between the two of them, which could be described as more than half a sentence of speculation, and said.

It's just that Yao Wan mentioned this topic, and Nalan Yanran just had the opportunity to ask her.

"By the way, Miss Wan, about you and Nalan Yanran......"

"Don't you know what you should know? Then he turned his head and asked me what to do? ”

Yao Wan waved his hand.

"It's not—I mean, the relationship between you and Nalan Yanran."

"Oh, this......"

Yao Wan's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Nalan's little girl is quite pitiful, so I just helped her, let's think it was a whim...... Not happy? ”

"Not really...... I'm not a kid anymore, and no matter how unhappy I am, I can't lose my temper......"

Xiao Yan shook his head, but having said that, if there was really no mood or ripple in his heart, he was just deceiving himself.

Of course, he was not very happy, it was like proving that he was not the only one who was special to Miss Wan.

It's just that Xiao Yan is not the kind of child who has to splash and roll if he loses the love of adults, so even if he is inevitably a little unhappy in his heart, he still controls his emotions.

"Well, I know I'm a little bit unorthodox about this."

Yao Wan sighed lightly, in fact, even if Xiao Yan was angry with her because of this incident, she felt that it was understandable, but now Xiao Yan was so open-minded, but she was a little used to it.

"So, why don't I give you some compensation?"

Yao Wan thought about it, but still couldn't help but say.

And Xiao Yan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard Yao Wan say these two words.

His rationality reminded himself that he naturally no longer lacked anything now, whether it was exercises, secret methods, weapons, fighting skills, or elixirs, he lacked nothing.

And his sensibility was activated and touched by the light words of Yao Wan.

"Compensation? Anything? ”

"Hmm...... Of course, the kind that goes too far is certainly not good. ”

Yao Wan naturally realized what Xiao Yan was thinking in his heart, and couldn't help but regret it a little and opened it.

"Hurry up, or it will be invalid."
