Chapter 17 Chapter 17 "Junior brother is the best at making me happy"...
Ruan Mingyu worked with his senior sister and senior brother Xiuhua to make pills every day. He smiled sweetly and became familiar with them in a few days.
Ruan Mingyu and Song Chenxi both called Cen Tao Senior Sister, only Senior Brother Xiuhua called her by her name.
Ruan Mingyu asked her why?
The elder sister said, "Because we went up the mountain on the same day, neither of us would give in. He refused to call me elder sister, and I refused to call him elder brother, so we had no choice but to call each other by our names."
Ji Ying said coldly, "What are you talking about? Hurry up and make the elixir."
Ji Ying is not as easy to get along with as her senior sister, but she is still a good person.
Cen Tao: "Why are we so serious about not calling each other senior brothers and sisters? Let's chat together. Just refining pills is so boring."
In fact, they normally wouldn't be that tired. The reason they are refining pills day and night is that a heavenly-level secret realm is about to open, and the brothers and sisters in the sect are looking forward to their pills to save their lives.
"We make so many pills every day, so we must earn a lot of spirit stones, right?" Ruan Mingyu asked curiously.
Senior Sister: "It's only worth selling it to others. Giving it to other disciples in our sect is just to make back our investment. What kind of materials are they? Don't the spiritual treasures of heaven and earth cost money?"
The senior sister chatted with him while refining the elixir: "Junior brother, you've been a disciple for almost three or four years now, right? Are you twenty this year?"
Ruan Mingyu: "Next year."
Senior Sister: "Being young is good. I calculated that Song Chenxi was born on the Spring Equinox, so he is only one or two years older than you."
Ruan Mingyu: "Really? I thought he was a hundred or two hundred years older than me."
"Master Brother's behavior is indeed not what one would expect from someone his age. Junior Brother is more innocent and adorable. However, you should learn more from him. It's a good idea to be more careful in everything. The people of Yuantai Peak are too honest and kind-hearted, and they always get cheated."
"What did you cheat on?" Ruan Mingyu asked.
Ji Ying coughed and said, "Still talking, the pills are almost gone."
The senior sister glanced at Ji Ying, smiled, and didn't say anything else.
Not long after, Ruan Mingyu felt something furry under his feet. The fear of being dominated by rats in the cave came back to him, and he immediately took two steps back in fright.
After a closer look, I found that there was a black cat under my feet, which was the one that I saw standing on my senior sister's shoulder without moving or running at the beginning.
The cat circled around Ruan Mingyu as if he were a pillar, then jumped onto his head and sat down.
Senior Sister said: "Xiao Hei seems to like you very much"
Ruan Mingyu didn't dare to move. He was always afraid of these furry creatures. He said to his senior sister with a stiff neck, "Senior sister, please let this little guy down from my head."
"Don't worry, our Xiao Hei doesn't bite people." said the senior sister.
The black cat seemed to know that Ruan Mingyu was afraid of him, so it deliberately played tricks on him. It jumped onto his shoulder again and wrapped its tail around his neck, looking like a cat scarf.
Ruan Mingyu was so upset that he wanted to cry but had no tears. He asked his senior sister to take the cat away, but when he turned around, his senior sister was gone. He didn't know where she had gone.
Ruan Mingyu ran out and tried to take the cat off his neck. The cat seemed very satisfied with the position on his shoulder and refused to leave. Ruan Mingyu did not dare to touch it and begged for mercy: "King of Cats, please let me go. I will go to the kitchen and steal a chicken for you later."
The little black king swung his tail and completely ignored the chattering human.
Ruan Mingyu ran into Song Chenxi head-on, and he ran over like he had found a savior. His voice trembled as he shouted, "Brother, cat!"
Before he finished speaking, Song Chenxi knew his intention and went over to pick up the cat.
Ruan Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief, and Song Chenxi held the cat like a baby.
"You're a coward. It's ok to be afraid of mice, but you're also afraid of cats."
He wanted to show Ruan Mingyu the cat, but Ruan Mingyu dodged.
"He won't bite you, what are you afraid of?"
"Whether it bites me or not, I'm afraid."
Song Chenxi held the cat and played with it for a while, and from time to time he pretended to ask Ruan Mingyu to hold the cat, which made Ruan Mingyu almost cry. So she stopped teasing him, let go of the Cat King, and let it play by itself.
Song Chenxi reached out and touched Ruan Mingyu's shoulder. Ruan Mingyu didn't know what he was going to do, so he turned his head to avoid it.
Song Chenxi gestured to him to see that there was still cat hair on it.
Ruan Mingyu stopped and let him brush his hair.
Song Chenxi is really not a good guy. He plays tricks on him every time.
He didn't dare to say this, so he pretended to be a brother and asked him, "Brother, are you going to the secret realm too?"
Song Chenxi: "Why are you asking this?"
Ruan Mingyu: "Is it not okay to just ask? I'm concerned about you, Senior Brother."
Song Chenxi looked at him for a long time and then smiled: "Are you calculating when I will leave so that you can have the bed all to yourself?"
Ruan Mingyu: "Nowhere."
Song Chenxi: "Soon, in half an hour, you can sleep in a bed by yourself."
He suddenly asked again: "Do you want to go to the secret realm with me?"
Ruan Mingyu shook his head like a rattle. According to the plot in the book, he followed Song Chenxi to the secret realm. Unlike others who went there for cultivation, he went there to find a chance to kill Song Chenxi, his love rival. However, he ended up losing more than he gained, as if he had been poisoned by some incurable poison.
Song Chenxi smiled and snorted, "Forget it."
Time passed quietly and a few days went by before I knew it.
Today is the Spring Equinox, and I remembered that my senior sister said that Song Chenxi’s birthday is around the Spring Equinox.
Ruan Mingyu went down the mountain early and bought two huge longevity peach buns at the foot of the mountain. He originally wanted to make a cake, but he found that he didn't know how to make one.
In the evening, he went back early, placed the longevity peaches on the table, and put two small candles on them.
Song Chenxi returned to the house. There was no light on, so he thought Ruan Mingyu had gone to bed. However, he found that Ruan Mingyu's breathing was obviously not that of a sleeping person. What did he want to do?
As soon as Song Chenxi came in, Ruan Mingyu lit the candles on the birthday buns and said to him, "Brother, where we are, we always have cakes for birthdays." He was too lazy to explain to Song Chenxi what cake was, and said, "It's the same with birthday buns."
Is today his birthday? Song Chenxi himself couldn't remember clearly. He had been in the mountains for so many years and had never celebrated his birthday. Firstly, he was an immortal cultivator and had little worldly ideas. Secondly, he himself couldn't remember when he was born.
Ruan Mingyu said to him, "Brother, blow out the candles."
Why put a candle on the birthday peach? Song Chenxi didn't know why, but he did as he was told. The candle was blown out, and the room fell into darkness again.
Then he heard Ruan Mingyu's voice: "Senior Brother, happy birthday!"
In the darkness, his eyes were fixed on Ruan Mingyu. He looked at him for a long time without moving. Ruan Mingyu stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes.
"Senior Brother?"
He leaned over, rested his head on Ruan Mingyu's shoulder, and hugged him tightly with his arms.
The arms kept tightening.
He hugged her so tightly that Ruan Mingyu could hardly breathe. She patted his back gently, but felt something wet on her face.
"Are you crying?"
He reached out his hand to the back of Ruan Mingyu's head, stroked his hair, and there was a smile in his voice.
"No, don't talk nonsense."
Ruan Mingyu freed one hand to light the candle. He held the candle in front of his eyes and saw that Song Chenxi's eyes were red with tears flashing in them.
Ruan Mingyu seemed to have discovered a new world: "You said you have never cried, you are a liar."
"Ruan Mingyu, you're so funny. No one ever remembers my birthday."
Although he was reluctant to admit it, he was able to escape from Shen Yanyuan and become a disciple of the Seven Star Sect, largely with the help of Song Chenxi.
He said, "I am very grateful to you for bringing me out of the cage. I, Ruan Mingyu, am a person who knows how to repay kindness. If someone treats me well, even if I can't repay them tenfold, I can still return two points."
Song Chenxi wasn't as moved as before: "Just to repay a favor?"
Ruan Mingyu immediately made up for it: "I just wanted to celebrate my senior brother's birthday. I don't want anything else."
Song Chenxi chuckled: "As expected of my junior brother, he is the best at making me happy."
Ruan Mingyu said, "Birthdays are meant to be happy."
Song Chenxi looked at him deeply and whispered softly, "Ruan Mingyu, you really are good at manipulating people's hearts."
---------------
After a few days, Song Chenxi asked Qi Chen to go to the secret realm.
He packed his bags and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he said to Ruan Mingyu, "I don't even know when I'll be back. You don't have to worry about what Shen Yanyuan will do to you after I leave. You're also a disciple of the Seven Star Sect, and Yuantai Peak is your support. If he comes out and forces himself on me, and you come crying and beg me when I come back, I might just give in and fight him and get you back."
Ruan Mingyu knew he was joking: "Go ahead, don't worry about me."
Song Chenxi said one thing and meant another: "Who cares about you?"
Ruan Mingyu sent him out the door: "Then go quickly, the bed belongs to me from now on."
Song Chenxi shook his head: "You little sparrow who turns his back on you." He called for his flying sword and was about to fly away.
Ruan Mingyu looked at Song Chenxi rising in the air, waved to him, and shouted, "Brother, have a safe journey! Don't miss me too much!"
Song Chenxi looked back at him, with a smile on his lips, and flew away on his sword.
