In the pavilion, within the cool shadow, the drizzle lightly fell as Miss Yun leaned against the railing to rest.
Not far from the pavilion was the Inner Lake of Mu Yu Peak, which, due to rising waters, had rged with the streams, flooding to the very edge of the small pavilion. Yun Qian only needed to stretch her foot slightly to touch the flowing water.
The scenery of overflowing water was incredibly beautiful, mingling with the sound of rain to bring peace to the mind.
Yun Qian quietly admired the surrounding landscape, her expression very serious.
She felt a little stuffy, so she removed her veil, taking a few breaths of fresh air.
Then, Yun Qian reached out toward the outside of the pavilion, only to feel the warm breeze, a touch of smoke rain caressing her face, and the colorful lanterns on the distant boat reflecting on the water.
Before Xu Chang’an left, he left a stream of Spiritual Qi for her, protecting her from being affected by the cold.
Yun Qian didn’t know how to describe this matter...
She gazed at the raindrops ward by her hand, her eyes flickering with a trace of conflict.
Being protected by the Spiritual Qi, should she be happy?
Miss Yun couldn’t understand.
Because if she caught a cold, Xu Chang’an would take care of her with great care, and Yun Qian enjoyed that feeling... besides, her body was indeed very weak, so in Xu Chang’an’s eyes, she had a constitution prone to minor ailnts, though not major ones.
As for why she never had a major illness, it was naturally because she couldn’t bear to make Xu Chang’an too worried. She handled the balance well over the years.
With this Water Spirit Qi on her, she wouldn’t catch a cold anymore, naturally wouldn’t fall ill to experience the warmth of being sick.
But this feeling of being protected, she also liked.
Mutually contradictory, it was impossible to have both.
But asking Yun Qian to choose between these two experiences, she truly couldn’t make up her mind.
Speaking of which.
There was another matter that required her serious consideration.
——
Yun Qian in the pavilion propped her hands on the railing, her gaze sweeping the surroundings, taking everything in as the confusion in her eyes deepened.
Xu Chang’an was now at the Dining Hall of Mu Yu Peak, buying ingredients to entertain Li Zhibai.
What Yun Qian didn’t understand wasn’t why Xu Chang’an didn’t take her along. Although she wanted to go, her physical strength didn’t allow it; after all, they still had to return to Celestial Bright Peak later, so she was resting here, waiting for Xu Chang’an to return.
What Yun Qian didn’t understand was the scenery.
When Xu Chang’an left, he said the scenery here was nice and told her to look at it a while longer.
Yun Qian couldn’t comprehend what was so beautiful about this scene of a flooded lake, smoke rain, and a group of girls secretly watching her?
Without him, any scenery seed to not exist in her eyes.
Conversely, as long as Xu Chang’an was beside her, even the starry sky, already seen often while boating, was so dazzling.
However, because Xu Chang’an told her to appreciate it for a while, Yun Qian naturally listened and tried to let herself have eyes that discovered beauty.
"..."
The scenery-watching Yun Qian was unaware that she had beco the finest scenery in the eyes of the girls on Mu Yu Peak.
The weather was getting colder, yet around her, many won had secretly gathered.
On the lake, the boats that usually sailed were all silently anchored, coincidentally appreciating the distant scenery.
Compared to those on the lake, the girls on the shore appeared much more bedraggled, each drenched, looking like drowned rats.
Rain fell from the sky, and they couldn’t do anything with the rainwater, as opening umbrellas while stealthily watching wasn’t an option.
Truly, if umbrellas were opened, this place might soon beco a mushroom field.
"Look, she’s taken off her veil!"
"Hiss..."
"Hey, wasn’t it said that this sister beca beautiful because of Junior Brother?" a woman whispered. "Why do I think she’s even more beautiful now that Junior Brother has left?"
This comnt quickly resonated with many, clearly not just one person thought so.
"What are you thinking? Since she is Junior Brother’s wife, she should have long been harmonized with him. How could she revert to an ordinary person just because he left?"
"Harmonized?"
"I an the synchrony in their energy flows."
"Oh, I feel she’s just beautiful, and it has nothing to do with Junior Brother. It’s simply a case of a talented man and a beautiful woman."
"This Miss Yun reminds of the Master..."
"..."
"Where’s Junior Brother? Where has he gone? Who accompanied him earlier?"
"Oh, Junior Brother went to the Dining Hall to buy food; seems like he plans to cook personally."
"Cook personally?"
"He can cook?"
"I’ve heard from the sisters at the Steward Hall that he’s good at cooking and even better with snacks... Wait, it’s not a secret, how is it that you, Senior Sister, don’t know Junior Brother can cook?"
"All I knew was that there was a man on our mountain, nothing else," the woman said awkwardly.
Evidently, she was attracted by Yun Qian today, seeking to learn about Xu Chang’an for the first ti...
And it seed there were quite a few won like her, foretelling that after today, Xu Chang’an, this Junior Brother, would truly beco a hot topic on Mu Yu Peak, and it wouldn’t fade any ti soon.
"I sowhat envy Ms. Yun, curious about what Junior Brother’s cooking tastes like."
"Why do you call her Ms. Yun? You’re old enough to be her grandmother."
"Age doesn’t matter; isn’t it all about looks deciding seniority here?"
"That’s you Hehuan Sect’s wicked won, don’t include ; I’m a new disciple."
