"Will Nanzhi agree?"
Lu Jin’an smiled slightly: "Nanzhi is a sensible girl."
"Hmm." Pei Wanyu nodded, then joked, "Weren’t you worried last night that Nanzhi would suddenly co to find you?"
Lu Jin’an honestly replied, "Last night, my eyes were only on Master."
Pei Wanyu’s eyes sparkled with amusent, and she couldn’t help but reach out to ruffle his hair, "My good disciple’s mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter."
"Waterlon-flavored, definitely sweet." Lu Jin’an raised his hand to gently play with his master’s small hand, "Master thinks so too, right?"
"Just so-so." Pei Wanyu rolled her eyes at him, "Nanzhi didn’t co looking for you last night thanks to . I asked Yinruo to keep an eye on Nanzhi."
"Hmm?" Lu Jin’an looked at Pei Wanyu puzzled, even though Nanzhi had just explained that last night she was pulled into ditation by Master, but he didn’t know it was Master’s instructions to Palace Master Xiao.
"Why would Palace Master Xiao help you?" Lu Jin’an asked curiously, "Even though she’s your friend, wouldn’t she take Nanzhi’s side in this matter?"
"For an old maid like her to do this, there must be a reason." Pei Wanyu’s eyes flashed with a smile, "And that reason is related to , and also a bit to you. You might want to pay more attention to her."
She thought, it wouldn’t do to only let Yinruo notice her good disciple; it was also necessary for her good disciple to pay attention to Yinruo... Romance is a two-way street, solely one-sided efforts wouldn’t yield any results.
So it’s essential to cultivate her good disciple’s curiosity about Yinruo.
"It also has sothing to do with ?" Lu Jin’an grew even more curious, "How could soone of Palace Master Xiao’s caliber be related to ?"
"She’s not saying." Pei Wanyu’s face deliberately showed a hint of lancholy, "You know, she’s my only good friend, I think she’s hiding sothing..."
"And since you and Nanzhi are in a Daoist relationship..."
Pei Wanyu turned to look at Lu Jin’an, "Could you help observe any unusual behavior she exhibits?"
Lu Jin’an nodded, "Master’s matters are my matters, I’ll keep an eye on things."
"Such a good boy~" Pei Wanyu smiled and ruffled Lu Jin’an’s hair again, thinking that if one day her good disciple notices Yinruo’s empathy, it would be quite an amusing scenario.
Lu Jin’an stood up and reached out to Pei Wanyu, "This is the apprentice’s duty."
Pei Wanyu took his hand and stood up, advising earnestly, "Pay attention to the details; it may indeed concern the entire Qingmiao Domain."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jin’an’s expression turned more serious, "I understand, Master."
"Hmm." Pei Wanyu feigned seriousness, then quietly turned her head to the side, her eyes smiling.
’Yinruo, after you understand my disciple, don’t think you can just get away clean without any repercussions. I’m certainly not willing to let you go off with soone else.’
’Though Jin’an doesn’t know, as his master, I have to consider it for him. If Jin’an knows later and you act innocent, his heart will surely be troubled. I might as well lend a hand now...’
Thinking this, Pei Wanyu looked towards Lu Jin’an, saying as they walked, "Originally, there were Yinruo and Nanzhi, but now that Nanzhi is with you, there are certain things that she definitely won’t talk about with Nanzhi..."
"You are half a son-in-law to Yinruo, and Qingmiao Palace is Nanzhi’s maiden family, you need to help share Yinruo’s burdens."
After a pause, Pei Wanyu looked forward and said, "Just like helping and Qingyue, you need to share the burden, got it?"
Lu Jin’an responded, "Got it."
"That’s good." Pei Wanyu nodded with a smile, "She also has things she can’t handle alone."
Lu Jin’an thought for a mont and asked curiously, "Why does Master have a connection with ?"
Pei Wanyu unashadly said, "Because you’re Nanzhi’s husband."
"I see." Lu Jin’an nodded, "I’ll assist Master, as this might concern the entire Human Clan."
Pei Wanyu turned to look at Lu Jin’an, her phoenix eyes flashed with a certain brightness.
’My good disciple now also has the idea of working for the Human Clan, but in the future, he will also experience an inner struggle just like Yinruo...’
With a smile in her eyes, Pei Wanyu couldn’t help but pinch Lu Jin’an’s cheek, "Well done."
Lu Jin’an looked at Pei Wanyu’s smiling face, "Master, as long as you’re happy, I’m happy too."
Pei Wanyu turned sideways and kissed him on the cheek, "As long as you’re here, your Master is happy."
"Then can the disciple have a kiss too?"
"No..." Pei Wanyu quickly raised her hand to protect her face, "You’ve already gotten enough from your Master, still want more?"
Before Lu Jin’an could respond, Pei Wanyu reached out and pressed Lu Jin’an’s face, "No excuses, hurry and take a bath... you’re covered in sweat!"
"Is Master not coming with ?" Lu Jin’an held Pei Wanyu’s wrist, "You’re sweating too."
Pei Wanyu glanced at him, "Aren’t you afraid of Nanzhi?"
"Don’t you want to avoid being discovered by Nanzhi, Master?" Lu Jin’an asked curiously.
Pei Wanyu narrowed her eyes slightly and pinched Lu Jin’an’s ear, "Are you testing your Master?"
"Can’t hide anything from Master." Lu Jin’an admitted openly, "Otherwise, why would Master not say anything at all?"
"Does Master have to personally compete in a rivalry with a little girl?" Pei Wanyu rolled her eyes at him, "This is Qingyue’s matter... Besides, Master has Master’s reasons."
"From your tone, I can tell you won’t tell ."
Pei Wanyu said plainly, "Balance."
Lu Jin’an suddenly understood, "Is it to diate between Nanzhi and Senior Sister?"
Pei Wanyu glanced at him but said nothing.
Lu Jin’an thought he was right, but he didn’t say, "Given the current relationship between Nanzhi and Senior Sister, there’s no need for diation."
Because Nanzhi doesn’t know about Master yet.
Thinking this, Lu Jin’an bowed to Pei Wanyu and smiled, "Thank you, Master."
"If you’re grateful, thank next ti while lying on the floor." Pei Wanyu crossed her arms and chuckled, "Of course, Master will lay down a carpet first, so it won’t be hard for you."
Lu Jin’an thought Master had awakened so strange hobby, so he went along and said, "That’s fine, but I also have a request."
"Speak."
"Next ti, Master could lie on the edge of the bed like a frog, is that okay?"
Pei Wanyu imagined the position and, embarrassed and annoyed, glared at him, "You dare to make conditions with your Master?"
"Then Master shouldn’t try to step on either."
Pei Wanyu sneered, "What will you do to resist your Master?"
"Then, this way, you can only get my body." Lu Jin’an spoke calmly.
"You!"
Lu Jin’an watched his Master’s chest heave and thought of sothing as his gaze swept over her skirt’s hem, "By the way, why didn’t I see silk stockings on the floor when I got up, I rember they were thrown there last night."
Pei Wanyu rolled her eyes at her increasingly rebellious disciple, "Master put them away."
"You had the thought to put them away?" Lu Jin’an looked at her in surprise, "Didn’t you fall asleep pretty quickly?"
"Master felt embarrassed, okay?"
"Okay, okay." Lu Jin’an smiled and said no more.
At first, he thought it was his Senior Sister who secretly took them since closing a retreat could an coming out. He didn’t expect that Master had kept them...
But why did Master bother to put away worn-out silk stockings; why not just dispose of them?
As he was thinking, he heard Pei Wanyu speak again, "There’s sothing I need to tell you."
"What is it?"
"The Wandao Sect has reached a cooperation agreent with the Qiu family of Qingqiu. In a few days, so Fox Demons will co to Wandao Sect for study... If all goes well, there will be mutual exchange programs for disciples thereafter."
Listening to Master’s voice, Lu Jin’an asked in surprise, "The Human Clan and the Demon Clan have different cultivation systems; what can be learned?"
"I’m not sure." Pei Wanyu pursed her lips, "You are the senior disciple of Wandao Sect. At that ti, try to figure out the intentions of the Qingqiu Fox Clan; this is also the Sect Master’s wish."
"Understood."
Lu Jin’an nodded, "Fox Clan, huh..."
He couldn’t help but think of the Fox Demon Emperor he encountered in Jing’an City’s Zuiyan Building. Her presence in Jing’an City was likely connected to the Yun family or the Qiu family of Qingqiu. He wondered if she was from the Qiu family...
"Also, later organize and submit your findings from the Mist River Cave Heaven."
"Okay."
"Go take a bath." Pei Wanyu glanced in the direction of Qingyi Palace, with a playful look in her eyes.
Yinruo, the old maid, was really active; she’d gone back to Qingyi Palace again.
Hehe~
How could I let you complete all your empathy so easily?
