After joining the furry rescue system, I became rich

Chapter 94 Confession
"Wait..." Jiang Ning was a little confused: "What do you mean by consciousness is the essence?"

She had always thought that Xie Jingyuan and Qinglong had some kind of strange master-servant relationship, but Qinglong was the master...

Una subconsciously looked at Xie Jingyuan in the cabin, also a little confused: "Don't you know? Considering your relationship, I thought Xie Jingyuan had already told you."

Hearing Una's words, the green dragon's tail wrapped around Jiang Ning's wrist stiffened, and it tried to slip away quietly, but Jiang Ning grabbed it by the tail.

It shook its beard and made a decision almost instantly. It would rather die than let its fellow Taoist die. It was just that Xie Jingyuan wanted to pretend to be a little white flower. What did it have to do with it?
So it wrapped itself around Jiang Ning's wrist with a clear conscience, and said aggrievedly: "In fact, I only have instincts, everything is controlled by him, the same is true for the Dragon God Contract, in fact, only the original body can form a contract.

"He said that he wanted to gain more of your sympathy or something, but I have never been to the human world, so I don't know what the use of this sympathy is..."

Jiang Ning raised her eyebrows and followed Una's gaze to look at Xie Jingyuan in the cabin.

Xie Jingyuan seemed to feel her gaze. He raised his head and gave her an innocent smile, completely unaware that all his secrets had been exposed by Una and Qinglong.

Una probably guessed something from Jiang Ning's attitude and coughed lightly: "Well, I'm going to watch Wen Yao go fishing."

After saying that, he slipped away with the white tiger.

Qinglong followed Jiang Ning into the cabin, looked at Xie Jingyuan who knew nothing, and silently lit a candle for him.

When Xie Jingyuan saw Jiang Ning coming to find him, he showed a hint of joy and greeted her: "Ningning, you..."

Jiang Ning held his head against his chest with a cold face: "Consciousness? Why don't you explain the Dragon God Contract?"

Xie Jingyuan froze, and stared directly at Qinglong who was coiled on Jiang Ning's wrist pretending to be dead: "Did Qinglong tell you this? Ningning, listen to my explanation..."

Jiang Ning gave a fake smile: "Well, then you explain."

Qinglong winked at Xie Jingyuan frantically, his beard pointing in the direction of Una, almost shaking into waves.

Xie Jingyuan suddenly realized what was going on. He didn't expect that his secrets were exposed by Una.

He instantly changed his expression to a pitiful one: “Ningning, I didn’t mean it… At that time, I was trapped with the original body, and its pain would only be more obviously reflected in my weaker human body.

"When I opened my eyes from the darkness, the first person I saw was you. Maybe you don't believe it, but to me at that time, it was like seeing the only ray of light in the abyss of despair.

"Later... I watched you jump into the crack in the ground without hesitation and slowly approach me in the darkness. I actually felt a little bit of despicable joy in my heart.

"Whether you believe it or not, when I signed the Dragon God Contract with you by relying on the Heart Protecting Scale, I did not recover my previous memories of sleeping as a Azure Dragon. The decision to sign the contract was purely instinctive."

At this point, Xie Jingyuan's face no longer had the pitiful expression he had before, but instead he said in a very serious tone: "The Heart Protector Scale heard the truest wish in my heart, so it chose to protect you. After the contract was signed, my memory was completely restored, and I realized what the Dragon God Contract was..."

Jiang Ning suddenly looked directly into Xie Jingyuan's eyes when she heard this: "So, you like me because I saved you?"

She finally understood why she hesitated even though she had already sensed Xie Jingyuan's feelings. It was because she had always had this worry in her subconscious.

If I fall in love with him just because I saved him, what will I do if I meet someone else who saves him in the future? Will I love everyone I save?
Upon hearing this, Xie Jingyuan grabbed Jiang Ning's hand and said anxiously, "I was afraid that you would think this way, so I didn't dare to tell you the true meaning of the Dragon God Contract.

"Ningning, I know this is hard to explain clearly, but it's really not what you think. There are so many ways for the divine beast to repay its gratitude, there's no need to get yourself involved!
"If I just want to repay you, the blessing of the divine beast Azure Dragon is enough to protect you. Do you still remember the dragon blood that bathed your body when you came out of the crack in the ground?"

Jiang Ning looked puzzled for a moment, then she remembered that the burning sensation that had caused her so much pain seemed to be caused by Qinglong's blood.

Xie Jingyuan gently held Jiang Ning's shoulders, not avoiding her gaze at all: "The blood and your tears blended together and were not rejected. I... I admit that I am mean in my bones. I was attracted by your eyes and your courage to move forward. Before I realized it, I wanted to circle you into my territory.

"But I know you won't agree. The Dragon God Contract is an ancient guardian contract. Although it connects our destinies, it only binds me.

"So I think, if I still can't impress you in the end, then the Dragon God Contract will be the last thing I can leave for you. It's just protection, it will never be a bondage."

Xie Jingyuan finished speaking in one breath, then looked at Jiang Ning's expression nervously, and added carefully: "I don't know how to tell, because like you said, our relationship did start because you saved me.

"I just want you to know that my love for you is not so cheap. Ningning, I can feel that you are...at least not against me, right? Don't worry about the contract. Even if we don't end up together, you will always be free."

After hearing Xie Jingyuan's last words, Jiang Ning found that her previous uneasiness was actually alleviated a lot.

In fact, she also knew that she was being a little too picky.

There are many reasons to fall in love with someone. Even if Xie Jingyuan was really attracted to me because I saved him, it doesn't mean that the feelings are fake, right?
Perhaps because of her childhood experiences, Jiang Ning is not so sensitive to matters of the heart, but she is not stupid.

She saw everything Xie Jingyuan did for her. She even cared about the reason why Xie Jingyuan liked her. Wasn't it because she cared?
After figuring this out, she breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed Xie Jingyuan's face in anger: "What else are you hiding from me?"

"It's gone, it's gone!" Xie Jingyuan said immediately.

Qinglong, who witnessed everything, rolled his eyes silently.

Although the Dragon God Contract does bind the dragon, it is because the dragon's power is too strong, so it is willing to be bound and share power with its lover.

Therefore, to put it bluntly, the Dragon God Contract is indeed used by the dragon clan to identify their partners...although it is a unilateral identification.

After all, if the other party doesn't admit it, the dragon can do nothing.

All I can say is that it was indeed because Xie Jingyuan's memory had not recovered at that time, and it was also thanks to Jiang Ning's good impression of him.

Otherwise, there will be another dragon in this world destined to be alone because of a random contract...
