"It's too late to be polite now. Let me check your pulse, and then I will tell you what you want to know." The old man did not take Mu Xianning's words to heart at all. He stretched out his hand and took Mu Xianning's hand.
.
A strange temperature came into contact with Mu Xianning's wrist. Mu Xianning was stunned for a moment and forgot to resist.
This super-cold body temperature is not what a normal person should have at all. How can there be a person with such a low temperature? Or... he is simply a dead person?!
"Don't worry, I'm not." The old man seemed to find Mu Xianning's idea ridiculous and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
Mu Xianning suddenly frowned, could this old man read minds? How could he know what she was thinking? Can he still answer?
She used to think that mind reading was quite fun, but if her thoughts were heard by others, it would not be fun. She would even feel irritated.
Who is this old man? Why did he look down and out when I saw him twice before? And now he appears here again?
"Gongque." The old man seemed to be diagnosing his pulse and said two words unnoticeably.
Mu Xianning was stunned for a moment, her eyes narrowed slightly, "What did you say?"
The old man did not repeat it, but carefully checked her pulse.
But there was a huge wave in Mu Xianning's mind.
Palace...
She had heard this name more than once, in Li Xie's mouth and in Hui Qiansheng's mouth!
In an instant, Mu Xianning's eyes were filled with astonishment, "You are Gongque!!"
The old man raised his head slightly, put down Mu Xianning's hand, and just smiled with a noncommittal look on his face.
His smiling face formed a huge contrast with Mu Xianning's surprised face.
Mu Xianning never thought that the legendary ancestor Gong Que, who almost killed her due to Li Xie's betrayal a month ago, would suddenly appear in front of her after her long sleep!
This is simply too unbelievable and unbelievable.
"There is nothing unbelievable about this. I already know all your actions. However, a month ago, I just went into seclusion. Unexpectedly, I thought you would be safe in Nitian for a while. I didn't expect that you would leave Nitian and be killed.
Hui Qiansheng sneak attack." Gong Que was still smiling as he spoke, as if he was an old friend who knew everything about Mu Xianning, but Mu Xianning was completely unaware of his existence or his concern!
Why does he care about her? Could it be that he paid attention to her several times before and did it deliberately?
"That's true. As for the reason...because you are my descendant."
The way of communication between Gong Que and Mu Xianning seemed to be accustomed to Mu Xianning being able to answer what she was thinking without opening her mouth, but Mu Xianning only deepened her look of surprise again and again.
It turned out that she was really a descendant of Gong Que. She had thought before that maybe everything was just Hui Qiansheng's instigation. It seemed that she was really connected to a grudge and grudge that happened three hundred years ago.
Understanding all Mu Xianning's thoughts, Gong Que's eyes inadvertently flashed a hint of darkness and depth.
She is not just related to the grudges from three hundred years ago... but actually, she is part of it...
Mu Xianning didn't notice the flash of light in Gong Que's eyes. She was just immersed in her thoughts, and her mind was confused for a while.
Gong Que no longer answered questions and answers, but spoke quietly.
