Chapter 291: You Scared Her
Jin Zijin’s words were indeed a reminder for him. Yes, Tianzong and Xuanzong had developed deep-seated enmity many years earlier, and this feud had been passed down for generations, as deep as the sea. Yet, in the last two generations, with the disappearance of the Youying Pearl, and both sects’ members searching for it for many years, their relationship had somewhat eased. They were almost forgetting the deep-seated enmity that once existed between their sects.
Gu Youyou only looked at Jin Zijin with a meaningful but unclear expression, attempting to discern from his face what was true and what was false.
Even though neither option was desirable, Gu Youyou would still choose Jin Zijin, for if she fell into Xuanzong’s hands, she would suffer an even worse fate.
With this in mind, she leaned her head into Jin Zijin’s chest on her own, shivering with fear. Her voice was as pleasant as the calling of a colorful bird, saying, "Husband, I don’t like this strange person."
Jin Zijin was slightly surprised, knowing she was up to mischief again, but still felt an inexplicable softness in his heart.
To play along with her, he looked at the strange person with an even more profound gaze, and anger that he couldn’t fully conceal displayed on his face.
"You’ve frightened her."
The warning was even more apparent. Zhuo Qing knew that if he continued to be insensitive, Jin Zijin might not be so amiable.
