“Ah… This, this… Not right… Isn’t it… How could you suddenly ask… I’m not prepared at all… No… No, no, no…”
Chu Xianning’s words caused Jiang Huai, who had already rehearsed a thousand possible scenarios in his heart, to have his brain instantly shut down.
Not only Jiang Huai, but even Luo Yueguan was stunned for a moment. No matter how shameless she was, a faint blush still rose on her cheeks at this moment. She first cast a shy and annoyed glance at Chu Xianning, but saw that Chu Xianning’s expression was cold and aloof.
She had known Chu Xianning for hundreds of years and could clearly see that her expression was merely cold and aloof, an attempt to hide her inner thoughts, but not anger or accusation. A strange sense of anticipation suddenly welled up in her heart.
“Will you belittle and look down on me in front of me to please your Master?” Her fingertips lightly clenched the clasp at the front of her dress, her body becoming somewhat tense.
“Why did Master suddenly ask this?”
Jiang Huai, who had finally managed to get his brain working a little, began to use his usual tactic: first throwing the question back to Chu Xianning and then finding an opportunity to change the subject. However, having been tricked by Jiang Huai too many times, Chu Xianning was now immune. Her eyes remained calmly fixed on him, “You just need to answer yes or no.”
Jiang Huai’s mind began to struggle and panic. What kind of answer did Chu Xianning expect him to give? His eyes darted around, afraid to look at Chu Xianning, and in his panic, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the hint of unease in Luo Yueguan’s eyes.
“Yes,” Jiang Huai lowered his head and replied very, very softly.
“I can’t hear you,” Chu Xianning, for once, was persistent.
Jiang Huai looked up at her. At this moment, Chu Xianning’s eyes did not waver at all, but stared directly at him, waiting for him to say it again. Cold sweat trickled down Jiang Huai’s forehead, but this was not a time for timidity. Perhaps he could have said “no” to make Chu Xianning happy, but if he said “no,” Luo Yueguan would be sad.
However, even if he said “yes,” Chu Xianning wouldn’t be sad.
“Yes.”
Jiang Huai finally repeated it softly.
“What’s good about it?” Chu Xianning seemed to have no end to her questions.
“Sweet and smooth, with a rich milky fragrance.”
Triggered.
After Chu Xianning completely shattered Jiang Huai’s thick skin, he entered his shameless mode.
Chu Xianning stared at him without blinking for several seconds. A moment later, she turned her head to look at Luo Yueguan and said very, very softly, “Do you understand now?”
Luo Yueguan was startled and shook her head, asking in return, “Understand what?”
Chu Xianning leaned close to Luo Yueguan’s ear and said faintly, “Some things are not useful just because I say them, so I never need to say them. If he is willing to make you sad to make me happy, then he is not him.”
Luo Yueguan slowly came back to her senses, but after a moment, she couldn’t help but feel amused and exasperated. Was this Chu Xianning’s way of testing Jiang Huai? But why did she come up with such an embarrassing method?
Jiang Huai, who was listening from the side, was confused and quickly asked, “What are you talking about?”
Chu Xianning replied coldly and directly, “You don’t need to know.”
Jiang Huai lowered his head in frustration. Chu Xianning had already stood up and walked over to him. Hearing her movement, Jiang Huai looked up. Chu Xianning reached out a finger and gently tilted his chin up.
“I’m going home first.”
“I just came to pick Master up to go home.”
“I thought you were going to stay at Luo Yueguan for a couple of days before leaving.”
“Hmm… How about Master sits for a while longer, and we leave together later?”
Jiang Huai had also considered staying to spend a day or two with Luo Yueguan and Luo Qingyu, but for some reason, he always felt a sense of unease. He felt that Luo Qingyu had already guessed many things clearly. He was always worried that if he stayed alone, he would completely fall into Luo Yueguan’s arms within two days for a night of passion.
He wasn’t entirely against it, but he just felt… it wasn’t time yet.
Perhaps out of some small intuition, Jiang Huai wanted to wait until he was more powerful before doing anything bad with Luo Yueguan. Luo Yueguan always made him feel like a lovable kitten. He hoped that when they officially confirmed their relationship, he would be stronger than Luo Yueguan, capable of protecting her from any harm.
In any case, their relationship was a little ambiguous at the moment, but it wasn’t bad. Luo Yueguan wouldn’t be so insecure anymore, and they still had plenty of time for those jumbled thoughts to be smoothed out by time.
“What? Are you afraid she’ll do something to you?”
Luo Yueguan said unhappily from behind, “Chu Xianning, you’re getting more and more improper.”
“Who is the one who’s always improper?” Chu Xianning turned back, but eventually sat down on the chair again, picked up her tea, and took a sip. Jiang Huai got up and placed more tea and snacks on the table, chatting casually with them. As they chatted, Luo Yueguan started to act spoiled again, saying that she had been sleeping too much lately and her body felt weak, wanting Jiang Huai to knead her.
Jiang Huai sat there like a needle on a cushion. After receiving a cold glance from Chu Xianning, he still stood up and went behind Luo Yueguan, gently placing his hands on her rounded, fragrant shoulders, and gently kneading her through her dress.
Chu Xianning sat there, and for some reason, Jiang Huai felt as if a cold air was condensing, and his heart was pounding. After kneading Luo Yueguan, when he went behind Chu Xianning and tried to reach out, Chu Xianning had already said, “You’re not allowed to touch me.”
Jiang Huai bent slightly and leaned close to Chu Xianning’s ear, asking very, very softly, feigning ignorance, “Why not?”
Lately, Chu Xianning’s frequency of jealousy seemed to be steadily increasing.
“No means no.”
“What will happen if you touch me?”
“I’ll punish you.”
“How will you punish me?”
As Jiang Huai asked, he gently placed his hand on Chu Xianning’s slender shoulder. Chu Xianning turned her face away, and in the end, didn’t say anything more, only her delicate pink lips seemed to pout slightly.
Jiang Huai’s movements were careful and serious. His fingertips touched Chu Xianning’s snow-white, slender neck. When he thought that Chu Xianning no longer had any means to punish him, and that she already understood that any punishment was a reward, Jiang Huai couldn’t help but hum happily in his heart.
She always had a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
Chu Xianning’s skin was delicate. Jiang Huai’s fingertips lightly touched her neck for a while before he let go. Just as he sat back down, Chu Xianning took out a Sound Recording Stone.
Jiang Huai’s hair stood on end for an instant. Before he could speak, Chu Xianning said faintly, “Luo Yueguan?”
“Hmm?”
“I’ll show you something.”
“Hahahahaha, you guys chat first, you guys watch slowly. I have something to do, I’m going out for a walk. The weather is too hot, hahahaha, I’m going out to cool off and I’ll be back later, hahahaha.”
The moment the words fell, Jiang Huai stood up and ran, disappearing without a trace. Luo Yueguan looked curiously and surprised at the Sound Recording Stone in Chu Xianning’s hand and asked, “What’s inside?”
But Chu Xianning put the Sound Recording Stone away, the corners of her delicate pink lips curling up slightly.
“I won’t tell you.”
***
Jiang Huai actually wandered outside for quite a while before coming back. If he had been present when Chu Xianning released that Sound Recording Stone, he probably would have wished he could bore a hole into the ground and hide. How could she do this! She could do whatever she wanted with me in private, but how could she let others see…
When he returned to the courtyard, Luo Yueguan was still pestering Chu Xianning, acting spoiled and asking what exactly was in the Sound Recording Stone. When Chu Xianning didn’t say, Luo Yueguan turned her gaze to Jiang Huai.
Jiang Huai scratched his head and then realized. Chu Xianning was just trying to scare him. He then calmly explained, “It’s nothing, I was imitating a puppy.”
Luo Yueguan immediately looked at Jiang Huai, then at Chu Xianning. Perhaps even she hadn’t imagined that this Master and disciple pair would actually… in private…
“Goodness, Chu Xianning, you’re really so…”
Chu Xianning didn’t blush, but calmly glanced at Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai couldn’t resist and once again slipped into the kitchen to prepare dinner for them. After that, he went to the tranquil Spirit Spring and found Luo Qingyu, who was meditating and adjusting her breathing.
Upon hearing him arrive, Luo Qingyu opened her eyes and came to him, a playful smile in her eyes.
Jiang Huai gently grasped her hand and tickled her palm with his finger, but said nothing.
He said nothing because he knew it was unnecessary. Qingyu had already guessed everything she needed to guess. Since she hadn’t confronted Jiang Huai earlier, it meant she tacitly approved of everything.
Lunch started harmoniously, but Jiang Huai noticed that under the table, a pair of white and tender little feet were stealthily rubbing against his calf. Judging by the direction, Jiang Huai quickly determined it was Luo Yueguan, who was sitting opposite him.
Mischievous.
But as they were eating, Luo Yueguan’s body trembled slightly. She noticed another pair of white and tender little feet approaching her and teasing Jiang Huai along with her. But after touching her little feet, they didn’t back away. Judging by the direction, Luo Yueguan quietly glanced at Luo Qingyu, who was sitting beside her. Luo Qingyu, however, looked incredibly well-behaved, her cheeks puffed out as she held her bowl, looking pure and cute, without any sign of guilt.
Instead, Luo Yueguan, feeling guilty, retracted her white and tender little feet.
This lunch left Jiang Huai trembling with fear, his legs shaking as if he wanted to flee. After eating his fill, he said he was going out for a walk. Luo Qingyu followed him, and they walked to the lawn on the mountaintop, leaning against the cliff, taking in the entire scenery of Qingxuan Sect in the distance.
Even though there was a tacit understanding between him and Luo Qingyu at this moment, Jiang Huai hesitated for a moment before asking, “When did Qingyu guess?”
Luo Qingyu tilted her head. After a moment, she looked at him innocently and said, “Why would I need to guess?”
“Huh?”
“If Mother didn’t like you, why would she have peeped when Jiang Huai Gege and I were doing bad things? Mother usually hates men the most.”
Jiang Huai finally came to his senses. Indeed, it was a simple truth.
Luo Qingyu suddenly started counting on her fingers. Jiang Huai looked at her curiously, hearing her muttering softly. He leaned closer and finally heard her say, “Wanwan, Fufu, Bai Li, my Mother, Qingyu, Xu Qing… Hmm… And Bai Li’s mother. I don’t know why, but I feel like there will be more people in the future.”
“There won’t be,” Jiang Huai said immediately, straightening his back and answering solemnly.
“Doesn’t that fox count?”
“There isn’t much affection between her and me. She didn’t have me, and I didn’t have her, so of course she doesn’t count.”
“Who can say for sure about feelings developing over time?” Luo Qingyu tilted her head. Jiang Huai looked into her eyes. “I always feel like Qingyu has changed a lot.”
“As long as Jiang Huai Gege isn’t biased, Qingyu doesn’t mind so much now,” Luo Qingyu said charmingly. “Of course, it would be even better if you could be a little more biased towards Qingyu.”
