Morax is dead, Liyue will fall into my hands.

So please don't be tempted, okay? I'm begging you.

Li Ye felt a chill run down his spine, especially when he saw the expectation flickering in Ning Guang's captivating eyes, which made him even more panicked.

What should I do, Xiaomei? This woman is seducing me!

Li Ye swallowed hard and said, "Miss Ningguang's criteria for choosing a partner may seem vague, but upon closer inspection, it is indeed true."

Admiring the strong, pursuing beauty, and desiring wealth are all natural human feelings.

However, people like Ms. Ningguang no longer adhere to these rules.

So no matter how outstanding a person is, that's their business and has nothing to do with Miss Ningguang.

Since they are unrelated people, how could they possibly win over Miss Ningguang's heart?

Ningguang nodded, agreeing with Li Ye's statement: "Chatting with Boss Li is really relaxing and pleasant."

Li Ye thought to himself, "I'm not relaxed at all!"

If all else fails, I'll wait until I get back to Jiaxuan Teahouse and tell everyone about it, asking for their advice.

Ningguang is a woman of such high skill that I'm finding it hard to keep up.

"Since Miss Ningguang has said so, it seems that my friend is truly destined to be apart from me."

Li Ye, unable to express his grievances, quickly added, "We've been chatting about so many trivial family matters without realizing it, I almost forgot about the important matter."

Hearing Li Ye change the subject so abruptly, Ningguang guessed that he felt a little embarrassed after being rejected by her, so he wanted to end things and leave as soon as possible.

Well, even if Li Ye wasn't sincere towards her, being rejected like this to her face was still hard to bear.

It's truly remarkable that he can maintain this mindset. Let's end our chat here for today.

Later in the chat group, I'll try to persuade Li Ye again, in my capacity as Boss Ji, to relax and not overthink things.

Given Li Ye's mental fortitude, he will likely only experience a brief period of adjustment and will recover quickly soon.

Thinking of this, Ningguang nodded and said, "It's time to get down to business."

The interview was relatively simple. Li Ye simply asked Ningguang about the process of discovering the money exchange business and her thoughts on it.

Then they chatted about some gossip and rumors, but didn't get to the deeper business topics.

On the one hand, these things are unlikely to be published in the newspaper; on the other hand, even if they were published, the vast majority of readers would not be interested in reading them.

Those who read newspapers are most interested in gossip and interesting tidbits.

So the whole process went very smoothly, and in just half an hour, we had covered almost all the topics for the interview.

Ningguang saw that Li Ye immediately took his leave after the interview and did not try to stop him. She simply asked Baixiao to use the floating stone to escort him back to Jiaxuan Teahouse.

Then she took out her phone and started thinking about how to comfort Li Ye.

After an unknown amount of time, a message suddenly popped up in the chat group.

"Who in the world doesn't know Ye?" said Ye: "Everyone, something big has happened! That woman Ningguang really has designs on me!"

Ningguang: ? ? ?

Chapter 129: Ningguang has feelings for you? Then accept them!

For a moment, Ningguang thought she was seeing things.

What do you mean?

Wasn't it you, Li Ye, who tried to pursue me and was then politely rejected by me?

How did it suddenly turn into "I have feelings for you"?

Before Ningguang could even speak, Keqing had already eagerly jumped out to join in the gossip.

"Beef Offal Chef": "What's going on? What exactly happened? Ningguang, that woman, actually has feelings for you? Really? Or are you just imagining things?"

Keqing knew that Li Ye was indeed very outstanding, but she never expected that Ningguang would be so proactive towards him.

Could it be because of the "Great Sage Who Subdues Demons" that Ningguang mistakenly thought Li Ye was a celestial being?

That doesn't make sense either. Ningguang is a very proud woman, and she is neither humble nor arrogant when facing immortals.

Even if Li Ye wasn't a celestial being, or even if he were, or even the new Rock God, given Ningguang's arrogant attitude, she would definitely have some thoughts about him.

Li Ye was immediately unhappy when he saw that Ke Qing actually doubted him.

Do you know how much temptation I resisted?

Do you know how high Ningguang's level is?

You have no idea!

"Who in the world doesn't know Ye?": "Of course it's true, it couldn't be more true."

Today, Ningguang specifically asked Baixiao to come to Jiaxuan Teahouse so that I could interview her in person.

And guess what happened?

When I met Ningguang, this woman immediately changed the subject and wanted to chat with me about everyday things when she heard that I wanted to interview her.

There were only the two of us in the room at the time, and I realized something was wrong, but I didn't expect her to be so open. She told me without any hesitation that she liked children and even asked me how I planned to raise my children in the future.

I swear to Morax, all of this is true!

Ningguang: Huh?

"Unemployed": "Shameless! Absolutely shameless! How could Ningguang do this?"

Gan Yu was furious when she saw the chat group's contents. As the dignified Tianquan of the Seven Stars, Ningguang's identity and image represent the Seven Stars of Liyue. How could she have no sense of propriety at all?

Ningguang: This?

Ke Qing was shocked again when she saw Li Ye's revelation.

Things turned out to be far more interesting than I had imagined.

However, considering Ningguang's personality—she's passionate and decisive, and even dared to use the Jade Pavilion to attack the Demon God at crucial moments—it's understandable that she would say such things if she had feelings for Li Ye.

Conversely, if Ningguang didn't have any special feelings for Li Ye, she would never have said those things.

In the past, many young and wealthy businessmen spent billions of dollars to place orders for Ningguang in an attempt to win her favor, but they couldn't even get a smile from her.

In Ningguang's own words, she is a businesswoman, a member of the Seven Stars of Heavenly Power, not a prostitute who sells smiles.

King You of Zhou's act of lighting the beacon fires to amuse the feudal lords might have won Bao Si a smile, but if Ning Guang had seen it, she would have given King You a contemptuous look and called him an "idiot."

If King You of Zhou were to become enraged, Ningguang would dare to smash the Qunyu Pavilion directly at him.

So if what Li Ye said is true, then Ningguang probably really does have some special feelings for Li Ye.

"Beef Offal Chef": "Anything else? Is there anything else?"

This melon is big, juicy, and sweet. I've lived in Liyue Harbor for so long, and I've never eaten such a good melon before.

Not only Ke Qing, but Zhong Li, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun, and Granny Ping also picked up their phones and started enjoying the gossip, some even wanting to join in and urge others to join in.

Only Xiao became wary upon seeing Li Ye's revelations.

Does Tianquanxing really have an illicit relationship with Li Ye?

It seems my warning to Keqing to be careful of Tianquan Star was indeed correct.

"Who in the world doesn't know Ye?": "Of course there are. When I heard this, I realized something was wrong."

But fearing that he might be imagining things, he deliberately tested the waters.

I told Ningguang that many of my friends admire her.

Unexpectedly, Ningguang became unhappy immediately after hearing this.

"Kind-faced old woman": "It seems Ningguang really has feelings for you, otherwise she wouldn't be unhappy about this."

"The Great Inventor": "That makes sense, that makes sense."

"Guest of the Hall of Rebirth": "From the perspective of general theory, it seems that this is the only explanation."

Ningguang: No, I didn't. The friend he was talking about was clearly Li Ye himself.

Before Ningguang could figure out how to explain, Li Ye was already leaking more information in the chat group.

"Who in the world doesn't know Ye?": "Later I asked Ningguang what her criteria for choosing a partner were. Actually, I just wanted to ask her what she liked about me, and I could change it if necessary."

Unexpectedly, she said that her criteria for choosing a partner was someone who would make her heart flutter.

This wouldn't have been a problem in itself, but she kept trying to seduce me with her eyes. Don't you think that's a sign she has feelings for me?

Gan Yu realized that she could no longer keep a low profile. If things continued like this, not only would her home be raided, but her internet cable would be cut off. She had to strike hard!

Even Keqing, upon seeing the content in the chat group, couldn't help but admire Ningguang's daring and decisiveness.

If I met someone I liked, would I be as bold as Ningguang in pursuing them?

It's probably difficult; in this respect, we've definitely lost to Ningguang.

Oh, Keqing, you should know shame!

Ningguang was the only one who was feeling incredibly wronged.

She did give Li Ye an encouraging look at the time, but that was to tell him that if he wanted to pursue her, he should try to do something that would make his heart flutter.

Who knew that once it reached Li Ye's mouth, it suddenly tasted different, making it seem like he was seducing her.

"Who in the world doesn't know Ye?": "Although I politely refused Ningguang this time, I think that a woman like Ningguang, once she makes up her mind, will definitely not give up easily."

Please give me some advice. What should I do if she continues to tempt me?

Ningguang watched as Li Ye continued to pour out his grievances in the chat group, and suddenly seemed to understand something.

Could it be that Li Ye was too embarrassed to admit his rejection, so he deliberately said in the chat group that she had feelings for him, but he had righteously rejected her?

Are they trying to cover up their failure using this method?

After all, in his view, no one in the chat group could come to him to verify anything, so naturally no one could expose his lie.

That's right!

It must be so.

Li Ye, you're so despicable now!

Hmph, do you really think that just because I can't reveal my identity in the group, I can't expose your lies?
