Chapter 930: Chapter 930: Explain to Her

“Don’t worry, once you’re done explaining, I’ll leave and won’t cling to you.”

Upon hearing her words, Rong Shaoze’s eyes darkened, his jaw tightened.

What did she mean by that?

Was she saying that once she heard his explanation, she would part ways with him and each would go their separate paths?

This can’t be; things between them would never end!

“Xinlan, are you willing to trust me?” Rong Shaoze asked.

Lin Xinlan nodded without hesitation, “Of course, I believe you. No matter what your explanation is, I believe you.”

Rong Shaoze breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

As long as she was willing to trust him, that was enough.

“I have my reasons, but it’s definitely not because I fell in love with Xuanyuan Wushuang,” Rong Shaoze tried to say.

“Xuanyuan Wushuang helped me deal with Yuan Ye, but the condition was to marry her and become one of the Xuanyuan Family.”

Feng Yunliu had told her this reason before…

Seeing her listening quietly, Rong Shaoze continued to explain, “Don’t worry, Wushuang hasn’t developed feelings for me either. We’re just friends; we’ve always been innocent in that regard.”

Lin Xinlan looked up in surprise, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

The man smiled faintly, “You’re confused. Since she doesn’t like me, why insist on marrying me, right?”

“Yes.”

“That’s because the Xuanyuan Family’s secret skills cannot be taught to outsiders. Only by marrying her can I learn them. However, Wushuang isn’t helping me for nothing. She needs me to do something, but whether I can accomplish it depends on Tao Hua’s abilities.”

“I don’t understand what you’re saying?” Lin Xinlan was even more puzzled.

Rong Shaoze sat down beside her, explaining to her from a closer distance.

“I’ve only recently found out that the Xuanyuan Family members don’t live past twenty-seven. In Wushuang’s generation, she’s the only bloodline left.”

“She’s currently twenty-two, with five years of life left. So, she’s asked Tao Hua to cure her illness. If he can cure her, she’ll divorce me. If not, after she dies, I’ll take over the Xuanyuan Sect as her husband.”

“The thing she wants you to do is to help her take over the Xuanyuan Sect?” Lin Xinlan asked blandly.

Rong Shaoze didn’t notice her indifferent expression and nodded, “She’s a member of the Xuanyuan Family, as is my grandmother. I’m considered half a member of the Xuanyuan Family.”

“After thinking it through, the only way to honor the ancestors is to let me take charge of the Xuanyuan Sect. If I don’t take over, after her death, the Xuanyuan Sect will fall into the hands of the Ouyang Family.”

“The eldest son of each generation of the Ouyang Family becomes the Grand Elder of the Xuanyuan Sect. The current Grand Elder is ambitious, always waiting to control the entire Xuanyuan Sect after Wushuang’s death.”

“Wushuang doesn’t want the Xuanyuan Sect to fall into his hands, so she made a deal with me to help her.”

By this point, Lin Xinlan had generally understood everything.

The explanation went like that.

It meant that regardless, Rong Shaoze had to maintain a five-year marriage with Xuanyuan Wushuang.

Five years, does she have time to wait?

After five years, who can ensure whose heart will belong to whom…

“Xinlan.” Rong Shaoze held her hand, his gaze soft, speaking gently to her.

“I know what I’m doing hurts you greatly. But I can’t stand by and watch you and Xiaocong face any danger.”

“If dealing with Yuan Ye alone was all, I definitely wouldn’t make a deal with Xuanyuan Wushuang.”
