However, at this moment, Gu Xu couldn't pay attention to any of that. He stared at Heitan in disbelief, his face full of astonishment: "How is this creature here? Where on earth... did you hide this dog?" As he spoke, Gu Xu walked around Huo Sining, his face full of shock. Huo Sining smiled, as if she had let go of a burden, feeling incredibly lighthearted. She looked at Gu Xu earnestly and said, "This is what I want to tell you, perhaps what you've always been unable to fathom, the secret hidden within me." "In reality, the story I told you and everyone else, about having a master, was something I made up. I lied to you all, I have no master, nor do I know any mysterious old beggar. From the beginning to the end, there has only been me." With that, Huo Sining began recounting how on the second day of the college entrance examination, she accidentally broke the Jade Pendant and touched the Water-Repelling Pearl inside, leading to her acquisition of the Storage Space and activation of the Invisibility Skill. She shared various incidents, including using the Heavenly Eye for gambling and treasure appraisal, performing magic tricks with the storage ring, and even causing a commotion at the Dongdu Museum to steal thousands of artifacts." As she revealed each piece of information, Gu Xu was stunned speechless. By the time Huo Sining spoke of her assisting in Dragon Vein Seeking at the Xianyang Ancient Tomb, Gu Xu was utterly dumbfounded. "So you're saying that all of this is because of that pearl and the ring in your hand?" After a few seconds of silence, just as Huo Sining's heart was filled with anxiety, Gu Xu suddenly spoke. He lifted his head, looked seriously at Huo Sining, and asked. Gu Xu's face immediately darkened: "Are you an idiot? You shouldn't flaunt your wealth. With such important items, you ought to hide them well. If you participate in something like the Spring Festival Gala and get discovered, you'd be placing yourself in danger. Don't you value your life?!" Huo Sining was taken aback, then suddenly lowered her head with a gentle smile. The man's reaction made her heart overflow with innumerable bubbles of joy, surging one after another. Most people, upon learning that she possesses such heavenly cheats as the Heavenly Eye and Storage Space, would inevitably want to claim them for themselves. But Huo Sining saw no trace of greed in Gu Xu's eyes. His gaze was pure, devoid of any wicked thoughts, showing only a frustration and concern for her not living up to expectations, and worries for her safety, without any inquiry about her financial sources. Having been reborn, she handled everything with calm and reason, using her past life's experiences as a warning. Only with Gu Xu, it's like quenching her thirst with poison, retreating step by step under his advances, finally falling into a gentle whirlpool. In the past, Huo Sining questioned whether accepting Gu Xu was worth it. But Huo Sining was unsure, as she didn't know the answer herself. However, today all uncertainties vanished with Gu Xu's instinctive reaction, and Huo Sining's heart gave her an answer. It's worth it; everything is worth it. This man gave her the best and is worth her reciprocating with her best. Huo Sining lifted her head, staring intently at Gu Xu. Her eyes were misty, with an indescribable gleam, and Gu Xu could even see his reflection in her gaze. Gu Xu was captivated by Huo Sining's bright black eyes, and before he realized it, Huo Sining had already tiptoed, pressing her warm, moist lips directly against his. Gu Xu was momentarily stunned, but quickly came to his senses. Seeing that his wife intended just a fleeting touch, like a dragonfly skimming the water, pressing her lips heavily against his before retreating, Gu Xu couldn't let it end so easily. He quickly reached out, pulling this young girl back into his embrace, reclaiming the lead. In an instant, a kiss more fierce than wildfire and more enduring than flowing water overwhelmed Huo Sining, like rain after a long drought. Gu Xu held her tightly, moving intimately with her. Huo Sining felt as if her lips and teeth were burning, searing her heart like fire, yet bewitching like poppies. In her previous life, being betrayed by the scumbag Zhao Mingcheng, even losing her life because of it, she never admitted it openly, but she knew in her heart, once bitten by a snake, she was afraid of ropes for ten years. This deeply scarred her, causing her to no longer have complete faith in love. But now, entwined with this man, Huo Sining felt a joy in both body and mind, without any hesitation or fear. The past is like smoke, dissipating like fleeting clouds. Since they've been given this chance in this life, they shall not part easily. Instinctively, Huo Sining clung to Gu Xu's shoulder, telling herself silently, it's him, it's this man, no other man is more suitable. As the kiss ended, Huo Sining lay entirely limp against Gu Xu's chest, gasping for breath. Gu Xu knew that neither the timing nor the place was appropriate now, yet he too was stirred. He could only control the desire within him, and his amber eyes stared steadily at Huo Sining. "Are you happy?" Huo Sining glanced at Gu Xu in fake displeasure. Gu Xu nodded; he was indeed happy. After waiting so long, he finally saw his wife open her heart fully to him, his mind was filled with joyous emotions, wanting the whole world to know. If they weren't in Miji Jungle right then, but in the Imperial Capital, he would probably be lost in happiness. Seeing Gu Xu's look of excited satisfaction, Huo Sining seemed to feel his emotions too. Pressing her lips together, she couldn't help but smile. Feeling the robust heartbeat of the man before her, and his unique scent with scorching body temperature, experiencing the unconditional warmth in his eyes and wholehearted affection, Huo Sining's heart turned soft as moonlight. Their eyes met, and both seemed to see sparks in each other's gaze. "Thank you," Huo Sining sighed softly. Gu Xu instantly chuckled in surprise, instinctively pulling the woman in front closer, teasingly said, "Silly girl, why are you thanking me?" Huo Sining smiled slightly without explaining, just instinctively wrapping her arms around Gu Xu's waist. Only she knew what she truly wanted to thank him for. Thanking the heavens for her rebirth, thanking fate for allowing her to meet this man, thanking this man for loving her, and for his complete devotion and patience. With such genuine love, what more could one wish! Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs nοvelfire.net
