At this mont, Yun Qian rembered that Xu Chang’an had previously advised her to find an opportunity to get closer to Wen Li.
The reason...
Was it to absorb so of Wen Li’s good fortune, hoping her own talents could improve?
Her husband referred to this feeling as taphysics, sothing Yun Qian couldn’t quite comprehend, yet she could sense Xu Chang’an’s unease... his worry about her potential talents.
For this reason, even if it was just to ease Xu Chang’an’s anxiety, she would comply with his words.
This was Yun Qian’s small gesture of ’sha’ towards Xu Chang’an.
After all, whether it was out of wanting to be protected or not wanting to burden her husband, her talent was destined not to improve significantly. As long as she could cultivate, could logically and without flaw seem healthier to him... that was enough.
Yun Qian’s only short-term goal wasn’t to find soone to share his affection or to closely observe the won around him, but rather...
To get through this quarter of an hour.
——
"...?"
With elegant movents, Wen Li drank her sweet porridge and quickly noticed Yun Qian staring at her, feeling a bit perplexed for a mont.
What does Junior Sister Yun want from looking at her like this?
She couldn’t understand.
But... had she been rude?
Upon reflection, Wen Li felt she had done everything perfectly since the banquet began—she hadn’t involved herself in the elders’ affairs, hadn’t disturbed the junior sister’s and junior brother’s world, and had responded amicably to Miss Lu’s occasional gazes.
Paying full attention to her al showed her respect and admiration for the junior brother’s culinary skills.
Wen Li, who perford nearly perfectly, left no room for anyone present to find fault.
She shook her head.
Wen Li continued eating her al, indifferent to what Yun Qian could be thinking.
After all, according to Wen Li’s understanding of Yun Qian, if her junior sister wanted to say sothing, she would have certainly spoken out, regardless of the surrounding environnt and atmosphere.
Since she hadn’t said anything, it surely wasn’t anything important.
Wen Li thought perhaps her current quiet deanor was too eye-catching, so it was no big deal for Junior Sister Yun to take a few more astonished looks.
She continued drinking her porridge.
——
"..." Yun Qian lowered her head and gazed at her hands.
Xu Chang’an didn’t specify how she should get close to Wen Li or how to absorb her joy... so Yun Qian had to think for herself.
Get close, huh?
Just as she thought, judging by the scene on the table, it seed the best way to get close was... feeding?
Like how her husband fed her food.
Like how Zhu Pingniang fed Li Zhibai.
Is this the best way for a girl to express closeness?
This was Yun Qian’s logic, supported by sothing else extrely favorable... Yun Qian always learned everything from Xu Chang’an, like copying handwriting.
Yun Qian tilted her head and glanced at Xu Chang’an, who was finally beginning to eat.
At this mont, after being busy for a long ti, he finally had ti for a good al himself, naturally enjoying it to the fullest.
Yun Qian withdrew her gaze from the spicy red oil in Xu Chang’an’s bowl and pondered.
Speaking of which, her husband often fed Xiaohua.
She took another look at Wen Li.
Clearly, the Li Hua nad Xiaohua was utterly afraid of Miss Yun, so much that when she held it, it nearly fainted, trembling and almost dirtying her skirt.
In such a situation, even if one demanded it risk its life, that Li Hua wouldn’t have the courage to let soone else feed it.
Indeed, Wen Li was the only option.
No, now she should be called Senior Wen.
Determined, Yun Qian didn’t rush into action, as she had a more important matter at hand—she wanted to watch her husband eat his al.
After she savored this sight, she’d have the energy to focus on Wen Li.
Xu Chang’an, enjoying his al, suddenly sensed Yun Qian’s gaze, looked down at the red-hot chili in his bowl, and instinctively said, "Miss, you can’t eat this."
Yun Qian: "..."
Who said I was going to eat it.
——
At this point, Zhu Pingniang contentedly put down her chopsticks and gently wiped Li Zhibai’s mouth with a napkin.
Her mont of intimacy was temporarily over.
"Are you satisfied?" Zhu Pingniang smiled.
"Mm." Li Zhibai thought that Chang’an’s culinary skills were excellent, but paused for a mont before saying with a hint of helplessness, "And you? Are you happy now?"
"Happy." Zhu Pingniang grinned, her brows and eyes filled with laughter.
Her mood was truly great. Ah Bai’s willingness to indulge her in front of the younger generation signified her importance in his heart.
Realizing this was far more delightful than rely eating around Li Zhibai.
"Ah Bai."
"Hmm?"
"If..." Zhu Pingniang smiled lightly, "If you had refused to be intimate with earlier, I would’ve developed a Heart Demon."
"Using Ms. Yun and Chang’an as a pretext, how can that be considered scheming?" Li Zhibai sighed. "You’ve already entered the Taixu Celestial Realm, Ni Zi, so why does your Heart Demon get triggered so easily? Where have the years of cultivation gone?"
re refusal to let her feed him would result in a Heart Demon being too trivial.
"To , it’s not trivial at all." As if guessing Li Zhibai’s thoughts, Zhu Pingniang seriously said, "A Heart Demon would truly arise."
"You..." Li Zhibai rubbed his forehead and asked, "Then if you develop a Heart Demon, how would you get better?"
