In the end, Feng Shao, accompanied by Shao Yunqing, met the junior brothers and sisters with whom he had been separated for several months.
Of course, out of the instinct of “protecting one’s food”, Lin Xiaoran also followed them.
From the beginning to the end, Lin Xiaoran never let go of Feng Shao’s arm, as if once she let go of his arm, her beloved big brother Shao would fly away.
In regard to her actions, Shao Yunqing did not react at all. But what she thought of it in her heart, only she knows.
When the fellow disciples met, there was a lot of excitement.
After learning that Feng Shao was engaged, the juniors congratulated Feng Shao one after another, and took the initiative to call Lin Xiaoran their “sister-in-law.”
Lin Xiaoran was very happy when she heard their words, and couldn’t help but look at Shao Yunqing like she was showing off.
On the other hand, Shao Yunqing had a calm smile on her face, which made Lin Xiaoran unsure of what was going on with her.
Among all the people gathered, only Lu Qingyuan’s expression was quite complicated. She seemed to have a lot of things to say to Feng Shao, but she swallowed them all in the end.
As for Feng Shao, he didn’t notice anything wrong from the beginning to the end.After returning to the Yunjian Pavilion, as a show of friendship of the proprietress, Lin Xiaoran hosted a banquet for the Taiwei Sect disciples.
After hearing that Feng Shao’s fifth and seventh junior brothers had their dantian abolished because of their conflict with Ye Chen, Lin Xiaoran graciously gave away a whole bottle of restoration pills.
As the little princess of Yunjian Pavilion, Lin Xiaoran is naturally doted on by its members like stars taking care of the moon.
Jia Chan, the head of Qingxing Hall, would give Lin Xiaoran a lot of pills every once in a while, so much so that Lin Xiao Ran could still eat them even in her next life.
So to her, a mere recovery pill is nothing at all.
However, this move won the goodwill of Feng Shao’s junior brothers and sisters, and everyone respected this sister-in-law who was younger than them even more.
While everyone was busy, Shao Yunqing came to Lu Qingyuan, who was drinking alone.
Shao Yunqing poured herself a glass of wine, and after taking a sip, she said casually, “Miss Lu, you seem to have a special impression of young master Feng!”
Lu Qingyuan glanced at her and remained silent.
But Shao Yunqing didn’t mind her silence and laughed as she said, “Miss Lu, if you have anything on your mind, you might as well tell me. I’ve always been a tight-lipped person, so I’ll be a good listener for you.”
Lu Qingyuan said flatly, “Miss Shao, I’m afraid you won’t understand my affairs.”
“If you don’t tell me, how do you know I can’t understand them?”
Lu Qingyuan shook her head but did not speak.
Shao Yunqing looked at Lu Qingyuan, and suddenly said, “If I’m not wrong, Miss Lu, don’t you also like young master Feng?”
Lu Qingyuan glanced at Shao Yunqing calmly, and said, “Miss Shao used the word ‘also’ very well!”
Shao Yunqing did not deny it and sighed, “Young master Feng once saved my life. Since then, I have no way to forget young master Feng. But now, when we met again eight years later, I found out that he was engaged. Do you know how sad I am?”
In response, Lu Qingyuan burst into laughter, and said, “Everyone says that the holy maiden of Jiuyin Sacred Land is pure and refined, unstained by mortal dust, and can only be seen from a distance like the flowers on a high mountain. Why is it that today’s Jiuyin Sacred Land holy maiden is a bit different from the legend?”
Shao Yunqing also laughed, “People in the world only know my appearance, but they don’t know my heart. The flower of the high mountains is just a disguise. I am also a woman, and I do not practice the way of abandoning desire and emotions. I have someone I admire in my heart. And I’m not afraid to tell you that young master Feng is the man I admire.”
Hearing her declaration, Lu Qingyuan couldn’t help but take another look at Shao Yunqing.
It has to be said that Shao Yunqing looks extremely beautiful.
Even though Lu Qingyuan is very confident in her own appearance, she is still a little ashamed in the presence of Jiuyun Sacred Land’s holy maiden.
However, this clean and icy goddess in the minds of countless male cultivators in the Upper Domain actually said so bluntly that she admires a man?
This feeling is like watching a towering mountain collapse right in front of her.
Suddenly, Shao Yunqing took the initiative to hold Lu Qingyuan’s hand and said softly, “Miss Lu, in fact, I can probably guess some of your thoughts. Young master Feng is such a talent, so it’s not surprising that other women also admire him. Although young master Feng is engaged, it is not impossible for you and me to have a chance.”
Lu Qingyuan smiled wryly, and said, “For senior brother Feng, I still have more respect and thankfulness in my heart. As for admiration, I am not worthy.”
Seeing Shao Yunqing looking at her full of doubt, Lu Qingyuan could only explain, “Miss Shao, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. It’s just that in senior brother Feng’s heart, the crush and admiration as well as the so-called puppy love has never been his concern. Now that he has won a spouse, this junior sister is also sincerely happy for him. As for other things, I’m sorry but I can’t help you.”
Perhaps it was because she was reprimanded harshly by Feng Shao last time, which made Lu Qingyuan involuntarily recall Feng Shao’s past behavior repeatedly.
In the end, she discovered that Feng Shao had never been a person who focused on his own gains and losses.
And her previous assumptions about him were purely her looking at him with a villain’s heart.
After understanding Feng Shao’s actions, Lu Qingyuan suddenly realized that what she had done and thought before was really petty.
At this point, Lu Qingyuan naturally felt ashamed. As for how she feels towards Feng Shao now, she herself can’t tell whether it’s respect or affection. She only knew that no matter what Feng Shao asked her to do in the future, she would do it without giving up.
Because she believed that Feng Shao would lead them on a different path.
As for the so-called love… just let it go!
After reaching such a conclusion, Lu Qingyuan smiled brightly and said, “Miss Shao, instead of being obsessed with emotional gains and losses, why not try to approach senior brother Feng from other aspects? Maybe after getting along for a long time, you will know a different senior brother Feng!”
Looking at Lu Qingyuan’s open-minded smile, Shao Yunqing couldn’t help but be thoughtful.
