Hearing Lu Yan's even more anxious tone than hers, Lin Qingying couldn't help but chuckle. Then, her slender fingers slowly turned the table, and as it turned, Lin Qingying said, "Don't worry, I have my own considerations for this matter. You're a grown man, so indecisive. I really don't know what your girlfriend sees in you."

"Hey, I'm just trying to give you a friendly reminder, and you're bringing me up again." Lu Yan looked at Lin Qingying's confident demeanor and didn't say much, after all, their relationship was a matter between the two of them. "Forget it, just keep it to yourself. Don't end up ruining our friendship. You know what kind of person Third Brother is."

Just then, Xie Wei came out of the restroom and overheard the second half of Lu Yan's sentence. Curious, he asked, "What do you know about me? What are you two secretly talking about?"

"Ah? Ah! I know you're handsome and dashing, Third Brother!" Lu Yan didn't expect Xie Wei to return so quickly, and hurriedly tried to make amends.

Seeing Lu Yan like this, Lin Qingying was secretly suppressing a laugh. Xie Wei, on the other hand, didn't think much of it. They had been brothers since childhood, and Xie Wei trusted Lu Yan completely.

As they were about to leave, Xie Wei suddenly remembered something and gave Lin Qingying a copy of the "Taiyin" manual he had copied before. "Qingying, I knew you had also embarked on this path when I saw you last time. This is a cultivation method specifically for women."

At the last annual meeting, Xie Wei noticed the flow of spiritual energy in Lin Qingying. Although it was still very faint, Xie Wei guessed that it was because Lin Qingying, as the female lead, had gained some opportunities.

Lin Qingying didn't pretend to be polite and accepted it directly. She smiled and looked at Xie Wei, saying, "Third Brother is so generous. I have no way to repay you, so I can only offer myself to you." After saying that, she pretended to be very shy and looked at Xie Wei.

Xie Wei chopped Lin Qingying with a chop, causing her to wince in pain. She cursed Xie Wei inwardly for being such a clueless straight man.

Xie Wei turned to look at Lu Yan, who waved his hand and said, "Third Brother, you know me. I've never been interested in these things since I was a child. I'm not like Lin Qingying."

Xie Wei understood that he had asked Lu Yan a long time ago if he was willing to embark on this path. Lu Yan knew about the reclusive Xie family and cultivators. In his words, since Xie Wei chose him as a playmate when he was young, his family had become an appendage of the Xie family, and he knew everything he needed to know.

Lu Yan has never been interested in anything around him since he was a child, and the path of cultivation is no exception. Moreover, he now has a beloved girl and something he cares about most, so other things are not important to him.

Everyone has their own choices. Xie Wei's thoughts were the same as Lu Yan's before, but the events of four years ago and the emergence of the system forced Xie Wei to embark on this path.
