Who hasn't been harmed by a white lotus, a holy mother bitch, a green tea bitch, or a schemer bitch?
Yet, these people pretend to be kinder than anyone else.
Cheng Ye accepted a mis...
Qi Yu followed Cheng Ye into a private room on the second floor, while Feng Yuxuan, lacking status and qualifications, could only sit in the lobby on the first floor. He watched Qi Yu and Cheng Ye go up to the second floor, but he was stopped. He bit his lower lip until it turned white, but he could not call out to Qi Yu in public, otherwise the rumors that he and Qi Yu had broken up would be further spread.
Feng Yuxuan and a group of wandering cultivators lived in the lobby. Because there were so many people and it was so messy, even though they used cleaning techniques, the smell was inevitably a bit strong. A look of disgust appeared on his face, and he tried his best to keep a distance from the people around him.
This caused dissatisfaction among the people around him, and some even laughed sarcastically: "Who was it I thought? It turned out to be Master Qi's fiancé. Why? Sitting with us?"
"Ha, this is that audacious liar. He's amazing! He offended both the Qi and Cheng families in one fell swoop. Everyone says she's pretty, but I think that's all."
"So he's a liar. No wonder. I just saw Young Master Qi and Young Master Cheng go up to the second floor together. How come my fiancé is hanging out with all of us?"
Feng Yuxuan's face turned pale and blue, but he was just a weapon refiner, his cultivation was far inferior to the other party's, so he could only endure it.
Back inside the private room, Cheng Ye narrowed his eyes and looked at Qi Yu who had come in through the crack of the door. He said impatiently, "What's wrong with you? Wasn't what I said last time clear enough?"
Qi Yu's round eyes made all the tendons in his body go soft.
Qi Yu pursed his lips: "Ye Zi, I don't mean anything else, I just want to..." look at you, and I want you to look at me, and I want to tell you that I really like you.
Seeing that he was speechless, Cheng Ye pulled Cheng Xi to sit at the edge of the round table. He propped up his cheek and looked down boredly. He happened to catch a glimpse of Feng Yuxuan being humiliated at the ordinary table. He said in a cold tone, "Is it really okay for Master Qi's future Taoist partner to be so brazen in public like this? Shouldn't he be invited to the private room as well?"
Qi Yu naturally noticed Feng Yuxuan's pretentiousness. He used to think he was a clean man, but now he couldn't stand it at all. He denied it with a strong desire to survive, "Don't talk nonsense. Our engagement was never established. We have no relationship at all."
"Heh—" Cheng Ye sneered with an ambiguous tone and called out to Cheng Xi, "Xiao Xi, when you grow up, don't be such a heartless and ungrateful person. It's really disheartening."
Before Qi Yu could explain, Cheng Xi's slightly hoarse voice deliberately rose slightly: "If I like someone, I will never mistake him. I can recognize him by his figure, voice, and even smell."
"Really?" Cheng Ye thought thoughtfully.
666 knew that he had suddenly remembered the previous worlds. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Cheng Ye ask calmly, "If I admit my mistake, does that mean it's not true love?"
"If it's true love, why would you admit your mistake? Can a person have two true loves?" Cheng Xi asked back.
"Hahaha, that's true." Cheng Ye suddenly smiled as if relieved, and patted Cheng Xi's forehead lightly. "You are just a kid, you don't know how to practice all day long, why are you thinking about these things? You want to find a Taoist partner? It's too early for you."
A few words stopped Qi Yu from explaining anything else, and the two of them ate the snacks such as fruits, peanuts, and cakes provided on the table as if no one was around.
Cheng Ye peeled a few peanuts, rubbed off the red skin, revealing the slightly yellow peanut kernels. A faint salty aroma lingered at the tip of his nose, but he looked preoccupied and even forgot to put them in his mouth.
Cheng Xi saw him "disfigure" the peanut kernels and tightened his cheeks.
Cheng Ye suddenly realized and followed his gaze to look at his hands. He found that the peanut kernels were almost turned into peanut powder. He laughed awkwardly: "What, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" This child must be reborn. His sharp eyes make people's tailbone feel cold.
Cheng Xi took his wrist and put the peanut, which was tortured to the point of not looking like a peanut, into her mouth with Cheng Ye's hand. She pursed her lips and said, "It's not as delicious as the braised peanuts at home."
The wet and hot tip of the tongue swept across the fingertips. Cheng Ye was startled and suddenly withdrew his hand, looking at Cheng Xi in amazement.
Cheng Xi still had a look of expressionlessness on his face. He just tilted his head slightly and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? I thought you didn't like it?"
"!" Then you don't have to do this. Cheng Ye rubbed his fingertips carefully, and half of his body was covered with goose bumps. However, when he met Cheng Xi's "childish" gaze, he felt that he was overthinking it. The child was just not used to wasting food. He forced a smile on his lips and said, "Haha, right? If you don't like it, try something else. There are also milk-flavored melon seeds over there. Try it."
He hurriedly pushed the small plate in front of Cheng Xi, and accidentally met Cheng Xi's eyes again. Those deep eyes stared at him so intently that Cheng Ye's already restless heart beat faster, and he subconsciously dodged away.
Cheng Ye: “…” It seemed even more awkward.
Qi Yu was even more confused, and his gaze towards the two of them gradually became uneasy.
There was an auction list on the table. It would take some time for Cheng Ye to get what he wanted. The atmosphere in the box was very awkward. Cheng Ye didn't know what to say, so he had to concentrate on eating melon seeds.
He ate the melon seeds very quickly, biting the tip of the seed with his upper and lower front teeth, and with a click, he pushed the melon seed kernel into his mouth with the tip of his tongue. He pinched the empty melon seed shell that was still connected with his fingers and threw it away. The pink tip of his tongue retracted and retracted, which made Qi Yu immediately think of the cave in the back mountain. It was this clever little tongue that entangled with his deep kiss. His throat tightened and his mouth was dry.
Qi Yu hastily withdrew his gaze, picked up a cup of cold tea and took a quick sip. The cold air entered the hot air pipe, and he immediately choked and started coughing violently, his face flushed red.
Cheng Ye: “…” If you didn’t know, you would think he ate too many melon seeds.
Originally, he didn't want to care about him, but seeing him coughing so hard that tears came out, Cheng Ye asked nonchalantly, "Are you okay?"
Qi Yu was speechless, but after hearing his concern, his eyes and eyebrows were obviously filled with joy. He quickly shook his head and swallowed his saliva: "It's okay, it's okay."
After finally stopping his cough, Qi Yu was flattered and asked, "Ye Zi, are you concerned about me?"
Cheng Ye rolled his eyes: "I'm just worried that if something happens to you in my box, the Qi family will come and cause trouble."
Qi Yu felt a little disappointed, but he obviously didn't completely believe what he said, and even had expectations.
Just when he wanted to use this opportunity to continue talking to Cheng Ye, Cheng Xi suddenly stood up and stood between them: "I want to eat peanuts."
Cheng Ye then realized that in addition to a pile of melon seed shells, there was also a mountain of peanut shells on the table. He looked at Cheng Xi in shock, somewhat unbelieving that this child had eaten a whole table of peanuts. "You, don't you feel sick of it?"
Tired? How could that be? Peanuts are a classic snack that goes well with alcohol. With the wine in Cheng Ye's dimples, he could keep eating them.
But Cheng Xi naturally couldn't say this now.
Cheng Xi licked her slightly dry lips and said, "It's okay. I still want to eat the kind at home, but there is definitely no such thing here."
Cheng Ye rang the bell, ordered a few more plates of peanuts and sunflower seeds, and said with a smile: "Yes, we have been out for a long time. After we buy something, we should go back and take a look."
As soon as he arrived at the Cheng family, he didn't believe that Qi Yu had the ability to hang around in front of Cheng Ye so frequently. Cheng Xi looked at Qi Yu provocatively.
Qi Yu: “!” The weird feeling in his heart became more obvious, and a bold idea gradually took shape.
Qi Yu finally understood why this child was so hostile towards him and had been trying hard to stop him from talking to Cheng Ye.
Qi Yu turned his head and glanced at Cheng Ye's curved and slender willow-shaped eyebrows, a pair of watery and clever big eyes shining with luster, a small nose that was not high but very cute, and pink and soft lips that looked like the best pastries, exuding a sweet temptation. Her face, the size of a palm, was white and flawless, with two touches of cherry blossom pink on her cheeks.
Who made the person he liked have a face that everyone would covet?
Although the other party was just a child, Qi Yu did not feel relaxed at all. Instead, his sense of crisis became stronger.
He knew that Cheng Ye had a special attitude towards this child. Besides, the one who is close to the water gets the moon first.
As for Cheng Xi, when the peanuts were delivered, he pulled his stool further and sat down almost in Cheng Ye's arms. Facing Qi Yu's intimidating gaze, he spoke calmly, "My finger hurts a little, can you help me with it?"
Before, Cheng Ye often introduced his favorite snacks to Cheng Xi and had fed him countless times. Cheng Ye didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He immediately touched a plump peanut, squeezed the joint with both hands, and the round red fruit rolled out. It was especially obvious on his slender fingers. He rubbed two fingers together to reveal the white peanuts inside, and threw one into his mouth first.
He puffed up his cheeks and chewed a few dozen times, then his small and delicate Adam's apple rolled up and down a few points and he swallowed it: "It tastes okay, but it's a little lacking in flavor." Then he put the other peanut in his hand on the plate and slowly helped the child peel it.
Qi Yu: “…” He was like an outsider.
Although I sit at the same table with them, it seems as if there is an invisible aura surrounding them, and no one can get in.
Qi Yu held the teacup and stared blankly at Cheng Ye, who had been speaking coldly to him, and the child who was laughing together. The tea sliding down his throat was extremely bitter.
"This headband was made by the female monk Ziyuan. It's exquisitely crafted, especially the talismans on both sides, which look like embroidery. It's very beautiful. The starting price is 200 spirit stones."
Qi Yu casually glanced at the audience below, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
A plain white headband lay quietly on the mahogany, elegant and simple.
"Five hundred!" Qi Yu glanced at Cheng Ye while bidding. At first glance, he felt that this headband was very suitable for Cheng Ye.
If Cheng Ye could always carry the gifts I gave him, he would probably remember me when I am not around.
But Cheng Ye obviously didn't think too much about it. He just felt that the dignified Young Master Qi could be so elegant - after all, this was an ornament for a female cultivator, and the bidders were all female cultivators.
Suddenly a male voice came out, and everyone thought that this person was bidding for his wife, and there was unstoppable envy and sighs from below.
How could Feng Yuxuan not recognize Qi Yu's voice? He frowned deeply, feeling strong hostility and malice towards this "female cultivator" who appeared out of nowhere and to whom Qi Yu was going to give a gift.
Qi Yu knew nothing about this. There were not many people bidding for the headband, and Qi Yu quickly bought it for 800 spirit stones.
The price is not too expensive, but it suits Cheng Ye's temperament very well.
Cheng Ye's skin is very white, as if she doesn't see the sun often. Her body is two shades whiter than her face. When she is naked, her whole body is pink, which is very cute.
If this plain headband is tied on Cheng Ye's body, whether it is on the wrists, ankles or other places, even if it is just tied on the hair, it will look good.
Qi Yu narrowed his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
Just as Qi Yu was happily waiting for the auction house to deliver his spoils and organizing his words to tell Cheng Ye, Cheng Xi said to Cheng Ye, "Young Master Qi is really sentimental. It's not been long since he got a new confidante. It seems that she is so charming that she can attract Young Master Qi regardless of gender."
Cheng Ye glanced at Qi Yu, with gossip hidden in his eyes.
“No, I bought it for…”
Cheng Xi rushed to ask, "Could it be a male cultivator? Master Qi has really peculiar taste. This is a female cultivator's ornament. If Master Qi gives it away rashly, what if the other party misunderstands you as humiliating him?" After saying that, he touched a peanut and stuffed it in his mouth, nodding at Cheng Ye, "Isn't it."
Actually, it doesn’t matter, but seeing Cheng Xi arguing with Qi Yu, Cheng Ye inexplicably found it a bit funny.
When did the young master of the Qi family get taught a lesson by a child like this? He suppressed his laughter and nodded seriously: "Yes, Young Master Qi, no wonder Feng Yuxuan couldn't bear to part with the beautiful women who surrounded him before after being with you. I just thought he was not satisfied, but I didn't expect that the problem would lie with Young Master Qi."
Qi Yu: "..." He still couldn't explain it until the headband was brought to him.
Qi Yu pinched the hairband and met Cheng Ye's curious eyes: "...It's a gift for my mother."
In the end, Cheng Ye didn't care who he was giving it to, as long as it wasn't him. What's more, he couldn't see it clearly because the distance was far, and only now did he realize that the plain white headband was edged with pink silk thread. It was plain yet a bit playful. No wonder so many female cultivators were fighting for it.
But I’m afraid this color is not suitable for the elders.
Cheng Xi's eyes also looked a little strange, and she pursed her lips and said, "I heard that Miss Feng likes pink very much."
Qi Yu: “!”
Cheng Ye suddenly realized: "So it was given to my sister-in-law, no wonder."
Mentioning Feng Yuxuan's arrogant sister, Cheng Ye subconsciously leaned towards Cheng Xi, as if wanting to shield him from the hurt and torture he had suffered over the years. A hint of bitterness flashed across Cheng Xi's eyes, and she shrank obediently to Cheng Ye's side.
The two of them, one protecting him and the other leaning against him, completely ignored Qi Yu.
Qi Yu felt bored being alone, and he swallowed his saliva while watching Cheng Ye eat. Then, he started to peel peanuts and melon seeds. He didn't hesitate and put them all on an empty white porcelain plate.
Seeing this, Cheng Xi raised his eyebrows, led Cheng Ye to look outside, and kept pestering Cheng Ye to tell him about the items being auctioned.
Cheng Xi was already half a head shorter than Cheng Ye when he was sitting, so Cheng Ye had to lower his head slightly every time he spoke to him. In addition, all his attention was on Cheng Xi, and he didn't pay any attention to Qi Yu at all.
Seeing Qi Yu gritting his teeth in hatred but not daring to say anything, Cheng Xi's young face suddenly raised a provocative smile, of course, at an angle that Cheng Ye could not see.
Qi Yu: “…”
The author has something to say: Qi Yu: Okay, okay, I have nothing to say.
