lady

"Is this Yin Heng? He's so big now." The man looked Yin Heng up and down, his face almost smiling, and he stroked his beard.

"Yes." Yin Jingyi held the teacup and put it down gently, letting Yin Heng and Xiao Yuan sit down.

The woman opposite sat upright, lowering her eyes as she sipped her tea. She instantly met Yin Heng's gaze. She had delicate features, but the indifference in her eyes was identical to Xiao Yuan's. She was graceful and elegant, truly unlike any other woman.

"Since Yin Heng is here, I won't beat around the bush. I brought my daughter, Li Qingqian, here today to act as a matchmaker for the two of them."

Yin Heng glanced at Xiao Yuan and thought: Ah Han is really right.

Xiao Yuan, who was standing aside, had a calm expression and showed no emotion. He lowered his head and pulled a strand of Yin Heng's hair.

Since last night, Yin Heng has injected spiritual power into it again, and now it has turned back into the appearance of a bracelet. To others, it seems that he is just touching the bracelet.

Yin Jingyi pondered for a moment, a little hesitant, "My son is now at an age... it's not time to rush into marriage."

Father Li smiled cheerfully, "No rush! Isn't this a good opportunity to cultivate our relationship? If it really doesn't work out, let my daughter stay here for a few days and see if we can get along."

Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Yin Jingyi could only look at Li Qingqian and said, "Then stay."

Before Yin Heng could refuse, Yin Jingyi accepted. He stared at Yin Jingyi with a look of resentment, while the man sitting in the hall ignored him. Then, Li's father left in a triumphant manner, leaving Li Qingqian to stay temporarily.

Yin Jingyi looked a little tired. He had been feeling down lately. He would retreat at this time every year, and the time was almost up. Rubbing his solar plexus, Yin Jingyi asked Yin Heng, "Do you have any vacancies in your Yujie Courtyard?"

Yin Heng suddenly felt something was wrong. "Yes, I do..." "Are you going to live with me?" "Dad, you agreed to it yourself. If I want to live with you, then I'll live with you!" Then, he pretended to look aggrieved and looked at Xiao Yuan eagerly, but Xiao Yuan ignored him.

"Then ask someone to clean up and let Qingqian live with you." Yin Jingyi said this and ran away, leaving the three people looking at each other in bewilderment.

Li Qingqian leaned forward slightly and said, "Thank you for your help, young master." Her voice was clear, like the gurgling of running water.

Xiao Yuan pretended to stand up and walk out. Yin Heng said to Li Qingqian, "It's okay, come with me, young lady." Then he followed Xiao Yuan.

Li Qingqian followed the two of them and listened to countless disciples' discussions along the way, discussing who she was and what she was doing.

"Hey, look who this woman is."

"I guess she's the apple of someone's eye. Look at her delicate skin and tender flesh. She doesn't look like a cultivator."

"Don't judge a book by its cover. What if they are even better than you?"

"Say it again and see what happens!"

Yin Heng was already annoyed by the noise and was overwhelmed by the crowd. He pulled out a disciple at random and said, "You seem to be having a good chat. Are you free? Then go and help me clean up the house."

He dared not disobey the young master's words, and ran to the Jade Cleanliness Courtyard to clean up. When they arrived at the Jade Cleanliness Courtyard, the disciple worked with another person to quickly and roughly clean out a room. It was originally unoccupied, and many things were still unfinished. Yin Heng added a few things and asked Li Qingqian, "Miss, if you need anything else, please let me know. I am sorry that you have condescended to come to my humble abode."

He speaks politely without hesitation, he is really worthy of being Yin Heng.

"Young Master, you are too polite. It's very nice. You can just call me by my name from now on. May I know what this young master's name is?" Li Qingqian looked at Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan spoke in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Yuan."

In order not to appear abrupt but not too intimate, Yin Heng finally decided to call her "Miss Qingqian".

When they left, they told her to have a good rest and walk around if she felt bored.

As soon as Yin Heng walked out of the house, he took Xiao Yuan's hand and clung to him, insisting on walking next to him. Xiao Yuan couldn't stretch his legs and feet, so he impatiently restrained him, "Yin Heng, can you please walk properly?" Yin Heng lowered his head and pecked his lips, saying in a sly manner, "No."

The two of them took a long time to walk back to the house.

The next day, the disciple from yesterday discovered that the new woman was actually living in the Young Master's courtyard. This news spread overnight, spreading from mouth to mouth, with the disciples discussing it all. Then, somehow, the rumor spread that Li Qingqian was Yin Heng's unmarried Taoist partner. Some female cultivators who had been there longer, noticing Yin Heng and Xiao Yuan's frequent companionship over the years, also spread the rumor that Yin Heng and Xiao Yuan were in love, but that, due to the matchmaking of their elders, Yin Heng was forced to marry the woman.

Later, those naughty disciples even started placing bets. One side bet that Yin Heng and the woman would become a couple, while the other side bet that Yin Heng and Xiao Yuan would become a couple. The two factions were incompatible.

Yin Heng slept in late, and when he woke up, he saw Xiao Yuan sitting at his desk, copying a booklet. Yin Heng, half-drowsy, walked over and put his arm around Xiao Yuan's waist from behind. He spoke lazily, his voice raspy with the sound of someone just waking up, "You're up so early." Yin Heng nuzzled his shoulder.

Yin Heng has become more and more clingy these past two days. He would hug him and refuse to let go at any time, like a child who got a new toy and couldn't let it go.

Maybe I've been enduring it for too long. Maybe it will get better in a few days.

"Let go and put on some clothes, or you'll freeze to death."

The weather was getting colder. Last night, I slept with Xiao Yuan in my arms. I felt hot, so I took off my clothes. But Yin Heng, that fool, hugged Xiao Yuan's waist and didn't feel the cold at all. Xiao Yuan half-heartedly let Yin Heng change his clothes, and then continued to copy the book.

Yin Heng was too lazy to cook for himself, so he ran out to the canteen to get some pastries and brought them back. Along the way, he always felt that a group of people were staring at him.

He came back carrying pastries, with an expression as if he had seen a ghost, "Ahan, guess what I heard when I went out?"

"I don't know. You look like you've seen a ghost." Xiao Yuan didn't even glance at anyone, but lowered his eyes and silently turned the pages of the book.

Yin Heng placed the cakes on the table. "Those people along the way were staring at me like they were on my body. I asked anyone at random, and guess what? They actually said Miss Qing Qian was my future Taoist partner! It's so terrifying. If they have time for gossip, they should spend more time practicing!"

Xiao Yuan's main policy was to stay out of the situation and let them talk as they pleased. Yin Heng took out a peach-shaped pastry and pushed it to Xiao Yuan's lips. A layer of icing on the side stained his mouth. Xiao Yuan opened his mouth slightly and took a bite. A sweet taste stimulated his taste buds.

There is also some crushed red beans mixed in here, which is very sweet.

Yin Heng watched him eat, and he was happier than himself. He smiled and asked him softly, "Is it sweet?"

"You'll know if you try it yourself." Xiao Yuan was about to wipe the icing off his lips.

Yin Heng pinched his chin, lowered his head and kissed him, licking his lips. When they separated, a smile still hung on the corner of his lips, "Sweet."

shameless.

Yin Heng was still smiling at him, "I haven't finished yet. They also said...you and I are in love with each other. With the help of our elders, I have no choice but to marry Miss Qing Qian."

The first half is correct, but what the hell is the second half? Some people really can't keep their mouths shut.

When Li Qingqian went out, some brave people on the street would call her "Young Master's Madam" when they saw her. At first, she tried to explain, but those people didn't listen, thinking that the girl was shy, so she just let them call her that.

At noon, Yin Heng dragged Xiao Yuan to the dining hall for lunch. Yin Heng was wearing a white shirt with a hint of indigo at the tail. Xiao Yuan had her hair untied, and the wind blew against her face, making her feel itchy and alluring.

As soon as he entered, Yin Heng spotted a graceful figure. Li Qingqian was there, helping the cook in the cafeteria. He tugged at Xiao Yuan's sleeve, "Let's go over and take a look."

They walked side by side, Li Qingqian chatted and laughed with the cook, "Miss Qingqian, why are you here?" Yin Heng asked with confusion.

Li Qingqian smiled and put down what he was doing. "I should do something when I come here. I can't just eat and live for free."

Xiao Yuan spoke calmly, without any emotion, "Miss Qingqian is a guest, so don't do these rough jobs. Take a break."

"Thank you." Li Qingqian shook off the water droplets on her hands and bowed to the two of them. Xiao Yuan nodded slightly. Then, Yin Heng told the cook not to let Li Qingqian do the rough work and took Xiao Yuan away.

The gossipy disciples nearby couldn't hear what the others were saying, but they could guess a little by looking at their actions.

"I told you, this girl is the young master's future Taoist partner. I feel so sorry for her when I see her working!"

"Tsk, just wait and see, the young master will definitely pick up some food for Xiao Yuan later. They are true love!"

"Stop arguing, both of you! Look, look!"

Yin Heng sat next to Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan had a bad stomach, so Yin Heng didn't let him order more spicy dishes. He tried to pass the cabbage from his plate to Xiao Yuan, but Xiao Yuan stopped him in time, "Take it away! I don't want to eat it!"

"Then you're not allowed to eat so much spicy food."

Xiao Yuan got anxious when he heard this, "Why?"

"Since you have a bad stomach, I will take care of you when you have a stomachache."

Xiao Yuan threw the cabbage back and said unhappily, "You don't need to take care of it!"

Xiao Yuan was stubborn, so Yin Heng had no choice but to lean over to his ear, oblivious to the surroundings, and whisper, "Then when you feel pain, don't hug me and cry."

Xiao Yuan pinched him, and Yin Heng shut up in pain. "It's better for you to hug me and cry now. If you keep talking, I'll go back to my room and sleep."

It's over, we've gone too far.

The young disciple's gossip spirit was ignited. Although he didn't know what was said, he still shook his head and clicked his tongue.

"I told you, the young master will definitely pick up some food for him. Believe it or not. I advise you to quickly suppress them."

"They have a deep brotherly love, you know nothing."

"That makes sense, I'll go change the pressure now!"

"Hey, you idiot!"

The disciples were arguing heatedly, while one side was flirting with the other. The two parties involved were still unaware of what was happening. Yin Heng was secretly rubbing against Xiao Yuan, making him itch. Xiao Yuan tilted his head and glared at him, but Yin Heng didn't hold back, his eyebrows curved and his eyes looked at him.

On the way back, the disciples passing by were discussing the lunch, saying things like "The dishes cooked by the young master's wife are delicious, she is so virtuous." What the hell is going on? Why did they even invite the young master's wife?

However, Yin Heng did feel that today's dishes tasted different, more delicious than usual. Especially the fish soup, which was rich in color, without any fishy smell, and tasted extremely fresh.

Hearing this address, Xiao Yuan suddenly sneered, "Young Master's Madam? They really have wild imaginations, even calling her Young Master's Madam."

Yin Heng put his hands behind his back and turned sideways to look into his eyes. He saw that the corners of his eyes were stained red, and the light in his eyes was concentrated in them. He could never get tired of looking at them.

"Young Master's wife... I already have a choice." Yin Heng quickly walked up to him, pressed against his chest, and leaned close to his lips.

"Ma'am, are you willing?"

"Be your wife? What will you marry me for?"

"I'll give you this entire peak as a betrothal gift. If that's not enough, I'll give you myself as a betrothal gift as well. How do you think?"

Xiao Yuan stroked his cheek and smiled faintly, "Think about it."

Yin Heng placed his hand on the back of his hand, kissed his lips, and licked them gently.

"Don't even think about it, Akan."

I want to marry you and let everyone know that you are my wife.
