Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

Chapter 418 Flowers are beautiful, but they will wither.

Ningguang followed Su Xun's gaze and her eyes froze. She couldn't help but recall the last time she accidentally tripped over this stone brick and then Su Xun hugged her.

After Su Xun left, she somehow used the power of rock element to make the color of the stone brick more vivid, as if she was deliberately keeping the memory of that moment.

Thinking of this, Ningguang's cheeks flushed slightly. She coughed lightly to hide her discomfort, and then slowly said: "This is not the base of the barrier array, it is just a special decorative stone brick."

Su Xun looked at Ningguang's slightly flushed cheeks, and a trace of suspicion flashed through his mind.

Why are you blushing if it's just a decorative stone brick?

Besides, such a striking color is not suitable for decoration, right?

He looked down at the golden stone brick again, and suddenly a sense of familiarity emerged in his heart.

Then he remembered the unexpected moment a few days ago. The soft touch and faint fragrance of Ningguang in his arms seemed to linger around him again.

Su Xun suddenly understood.

He raised his eyes to look at Ningguang, and at this moment Ningguang happened to be looking at him. Their eyes met, and instantly a subtle atmosphere filled the air.

"Ahem!" Su Xun coughed lightly and pretended not to know and said, "Is that so? Then this decoration is really unique."

Seeing that Su Xun looked a little strange, Ningguang naturally understood that he had noticed something, and she suddenly felt a little embarrassed and ashamed of having her secrets exposed.

But she quickly adjusted her mood, regained her usual composure, and did not continue the topic.

"Okay, let's go in. Come to think of it, you haven't been to my collection room the last time you came. As a friend, this time I will take you to appreciate my collection." Ningguang said, and then pushed open the door of the main hall and walked in first.

Su Xun looked at Ningguang's back with a puzzled look, then chuckled and followed her in.

The interior of the main hall is gorgeously decorated and magnificent, and every detail reveals Ningguang's taste and wealth.

There are exquisite murals on the walls, soft carpets on the floor, and various precious decorations can be seen everywhere.

At the same time, secretaries in uniform were busy sorting out various documents and items.

Seeing Ningguang and Su Xun come in, they all stopped what they were doing and bowed slightly.

"Lord Ningguang!"

Ningguang nodded slightly, signaling them to continue working, and then took Su Xun through the main hall to the door of the collection room.

The door of the collection room was closed, and it was carved with exquisite patterns, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.

Ningguang waved her hand gently, a ray of light flashed, and the door slowly opened.

"Hi~"

Su Xun took a deep breath, the scene before him shocked him.

The interior of the collection room is spacious and bright, and the walls are filled with various precious collections.

The ancient-style utensils exude mysterious power fluctuations; the exquisite porcelain has a warm glaze and exquisite craftsmanship; the precious calligraphy and paintings are full of vigorous strokes and profound artistic conception.

Each piece looks priceless and exudes charming brilliance.

A rough count of these collections reveals that there are hundreds or even thousands of pieces.

"Are these all your collections?" Su Xun exclaimed.

Ningguang raised her chin slightly, her eyes full of pride: "Yes, these are all treasures I have collected over the years. Each one has its own unique value and story."

Su Xun walked slowly into the collection room, as if he was in a fantastic treasure house.

To be honest, as a disciple of the immortal family, he was considered a worldly-wise man and had seen many rare treasures, but Ningguang's collections still opened his eyes.

Everything he had seen and nothing he hadn't seen was here.

Each collection reveals Ningguang's taste and vision, as well as her control over wealth.

All I can say is that he is worthy of being the richest businessman in Teyvat, and no one can match his financial resources.

Su Xun paced slowly in the collection room, looking at those precious collections with a gleam in his eyes.

"How is it? Are these collections pleasing to your eye?" Ningguang looked at Su Xun's astonished expression, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a bright smile.

"Haha, just kidding. If these collections are not pleasing to my eyes, then there is probably no other treasure in the world that can impress me. Your collection, both in quantity and quality, is amazing." Su Xun praised sincerely.

Ningguang smiled even more, and was very pleased with Su Xun's praise.

She said with a sweet smile: "Since you like them so much, why not pick a few that you like and take them away."

Su Xun was slightly stunned when he heard this, then waved his hand and said with a smile: "How can this be possible? These are all your treasures, how can I take away someone else's love?"

Ningguang smiled gently, her eyes moving as she said, "How can there be any talk of competing for love between friends? If you like them, it is their honor."

"..."

Su Xun looked at Ningguang's watery eyes which contained an elusive meaning and was speechless for a moment.

He thought Ningguang was just joking, but he didn't expect her to be serious.

Why? They are just ordinary friends. Even if they have traded with each other a few times and are quite close, they shouldn't give each other such expensive gifts, right?

Could it be that Ningguang really has some special feelings for him?

This thought flashed through Su Xun's mind, but he immediately denied it.

Who is Ningguang? One of the seven stars of Liyue, Tianquan Star, a symbol of wealth and power, how could she be interested in him, a married disciple of the immortal family?

What's more, he is a playboy, surrounded by beautiful women. He is proud of Ningguang for building such a huge business from scratch, so it is even more impossible for him to share the same man with others.

Su Xun shook his head and threw this ridiculous idea out of his mind.

"Ningguang, I appreciate your kindness, but these collections are too valuable and I cannot accept them." Su Xun said seriously.

Ningguang was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect Su Xun to refuse again, and a trace of disappointment flashed through her heart.

She pursed her lips, then smiled slightly and said softly: "Well, since you insist on not doing it, I won't force you."

Ningguang lowered her eyes slightly, then turned around and slowly walked towards a corner of the collection room, where there was an exquisite glass vase with a few elegant flowers in it.

Su Xun couldn't tell what Ningguang was thinking at the moment, but he could sense that she seemed a little sensitive.

The atmosphere was somewhat silent for a moment.

Su Xun hesitated for a moment, then stopped admiring the collections around him and followed.

In a corner of the collection room, the two of them were silent, quietly gazing at the flowers in the glass vase.

After a moment, just when Su Xun couldn't help but try to find a topic, Ningguang spoke.

"Su Xun, you know that although these flowers are beautiful, they will eventually wither."
