Chapter 22 Chapter 22 Brother Returns, Jealous
Decades have passed, and Ruan Mingyu is no longer afraid of him as he was before. His anger and timidity have no effect in front of this person.
"Senior brother, what do you want to talk to me about?" Under such circumstances, he said the word "senior brother" very calmly.
Chen Yanyuan looked at him for a long time, and then said:
"Have you been doing well these years?"
"Okay, of course it's great. It's a free and easy life, and everything I do is comfortable." Ruan Mingyu smiled at him calmly.
Shen Yanyuan stood outside the door for a long time, motionless. He stared at Ruan Mingyu's face almost greedily. He wanted to see a trace of the same gaze that chased him in his eyes back then.
No.
His eyes would never linger on him again.
"Why don't you just stay here?" he asked persistently.
Ruan Mingyu was tired from refining the elixir and stretched out his body: "I am not your pet. I don't need to ask your wishes about where I go."
Shen Yanyuan said stubbornly: "Come back with me. I know you don't like snow. I will melt all the snow on Lufeng Mountain. You will never have to see snow again."
Ruan Mingyu stood there without moving. He was no longer the boy who allowed himself to be manipulated by him.
"Sorry, I'm not interested."
"I brought you up the mountain." He suddenly said, thinking of something.
"So what?" Ruan Mingyu shrugged. "Brother, my name is Ruan Mingyu, not Ruoyue."
Chen Yanyuan didn't say anything else. Ruan Mingyu had grown taller, and the way he looked at him had changed. He could no longer be the same young man who had begged him to take him up the mountain.
Shen Yanyuan took out a bottle of medicine and placed it in Ruan Mingyu's palm.
"Your spiritual body is deficient. You need to take this pill regularly."
If it were someone else, Ruan Mingyu might have accepted it, but he didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.
Ruan Mingyu smiled and said, "I appreciate your kindness, Senior Brother. But I am now an alchemy practitioner, and the last thing I lack is elixirs."
"Brother, please go back."
Not knowing what had irritated him, Shen Yanyuan suddenly became sinister. "Please go back? Go back where? If you're going back, it should be you and me."
At this point, Shen Yanyuan's forced calmness disappeared. He rushed forward, grabbed his shoulders, and asked frantically, "Did you take over Ruoyue's body?"
He tore off Ruan Mingyu's clothes, trying to find any signs of possession from him, but disappointingly, there was none.
"I don't know what method you used to make it unnoticeable."
Ruan Mingyu dodged him sideways and wrapped her clothes tightly around her. Not wanting to argue with him any further, she frowned and said, "If you keep doing this, I'll scream!"
Shen Yanyuan's eyes were red, and the coldness on his face was gone. He muttered to himself, "How could this happen?" He forcibly injected his spiritual consciousness into his body, stubbornly trying to find evidence that he was not Ruoyue.
Seeing that Shen Yanyuan showed no intention of letting him go, Ruan Mingyu shouted, "This is molestation! Senior Brother Shen Yanyuan is an old man who wants to molest a young boy like me. Is there any law or justice in the Seven Star Sect?"
Chen Yanyuan never expected that such words would come out of Ruan Mingyu's mouth. He covered Ruan Mingyu's mouth. Ruan Mingyu bit him hard, and a bloody tooth mark suddenly appeared on his hand.
In a hurry, Shen Yanyuan actually forgot to use magic. When he came to his senses, he quickly cast a silencing spell on Ruan Mingyu.
Ruan Mingyu couldn't make a sound, and even calling for help was impossible. He was definitely no match for the person before him. His heart skipped a beat, wondering what on earth this person was planning to do.
It seems like all the attackers in the book have some serious brain disease.
The spiritual consciousness was injected into Ruan Mingyu's body, and his body instantly softened and his face turned pale. The two spiritual consciousnesses merged together, and Ruan Mingyu felt a burning sensation in his heart, but this person did not intend to let him go and continued to explore.
The person in front of him finally calmed down. Shen Yanyuan hugged him. After exploring him with his spiritual consciousness, he looked lost. He was still the same person, but his heart had changed.
In fact, he would rather be someone else.
Shen Yanyuan lowered his head and looked at Ruan Mingyu sadly.
After Ruan Mingyu regained his strength, he pushed him away without thinking.
Shen Yanyuan looked at him steadily and said after a long while, "I'm sorry."
Ruan Mingyu was speechless and gestured for him to leave.
Shen Yanyuan nodded. Ruan Mingyu thought he had changed his personality, but he didn't expect that the next second he would be carried on the man's shoulders by the waist!
Let him go, not let him take yourself away!
I’m really impressed!
Ruan Mingyu resisted fiercely.
Shen Yanyuan hugged him tightly and brought him back to Lufeng.
-----------
When they arrived at the place, Ruan Mingyu rushed to the door as soon as he was put down.
A rope flew over and tripped him, binding his entire body.
Shen Yanyuan picked him up from the ground and put him on the couch.
Ruan Mingyu wanted to speak but could only make a whimpering sound. He shook his head violently, signaling Shen Yanyuan to let him go.
Shen Yanyuan said to him, "Three days, you only stay here for three days, and I will let you go. If you agree, I will lift your silence spell."
Did he have a choice? Ruan Mingyu nodded.
Shen Yanyuan broke the curse for him.
Ruan Mingyu was a little confused: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Shen Yanyuan: "You and I are now fellow disciples, are you still afraid of what I might do to you?"
Ruan Mingyu: "What on earth do you want to do? Stop beating around the bush here."
Shen Yanyuan looked away: "I just want to confirm my feelings."
He pleaded, "Just stay here for three days. After three days, you can leave or stay, it's up to you."
Ruan Mingyu: "Your words sound nice, but what if you don't let me go?"
Chen Yanyuan said: "I can swear."
Ruan Mingyu was completely unable to defeat him now. It was obvious that the other party had the upper hand. Hearing him say this, Ruan Mingyu compromised: "Okay, you stand."
Shen Yanyuan spoke and made a vow.
Ruan Mingyu always felt relieved. If he didn't let him go, he really wouldn't be able to do anything to him for a while.
With a clear mind, Ruan Mingyu began to take advantage of Qiao: "You delayed me for three days. How do you calculate the loss of work and mental damages? I want to charge you."
Shen Yanyuan nodded: "I can give you as much as you want."
Ruan Mingyu: "Really? I want 1 billion."
Shen Yanyuan remained silent.
--------------
After returning here, Ruan Mingyu still lived in the same yard as before. The yard was cleaned very cleanly and was no different from before he left.
Xiaowei, the former maid, was surprised and delighted to see him: "Master Ruoyue?"
Ruan Mingyu smiled and said, "Just call me Ruan Mingyu." In the past, she was worried about not being discovered and had been suppressing herself and not daring to speak. Now, Ruan Mingyu let go and started chattering with her.
Xiaowei asked him how long he planned to stay.
Ruan Mingyu said, "I'll be leaving in three days. If you don't let me go, your boss will be struck by lightning." He took out a small box from under the bed. There were his savings in it. He left in a hurry and forgot to take it with him.
He grabbed a handful of spirit stones and gave them to Xiaowei: "Little sister, thank you for talking to me on the mountain before, otherwise I would have gone crazy a long time ago."
Xiao Wei said in panic, "I feel unworthy of this."
Ruan Mingyu stuffed it into her hand and said, "Although it is important to have a clear conscience, what is a clear conscience? It means that you should not do anything that would make you feel guilty, and you should not dare to walk the streets at night. You should be worthy of others as well as yourself. You should live while you have life, and make money while you have profit. As the saying goes, if you don't make money when you have it, you are a bastard! Just take it if it's given to you. It's not money that would make you feel guilty."
Xiaowei was so amused by him that she covered her mouth and laughed.
Xiao Wei said, "Once I have saved enough money, I want to go down the mountain and open a teahouse."
Ruan Mingyu: "Me too. I want to open a clinic when I save enough money."
----------------
Three days is neither short nor long. If we were refining the elixir at Yuantai Peak, the time would pass in a flash. But now we are in someone else's territory.
Shen Yanyuan often sat in his room, doing nothing but looking at Ruan Mingyu.
Ruan Mingyu treated him as if he were air and went about his business. But his gaze was impossible to ignore.
Ruan Mingyu couldn't bear it any longer and tried to persuade him earnestly.
"Why do you have to hold on to me? If you really like Song Chenxi, just tell him directly. You are brothers in the same school, not brothers. If you can't speak up, I can do it for you."
Shen Yanyuan shook his head: "I don't like him."
Ruan Mingyu's eyebrows jumped, and he hurriedly asked, "Then you said you didn't like Song Chenxi, so why did you bring someone who looked similar to you up the mountain?"
Chen Yanyuan looked at him. "I don't know what love is. Before you came, my emotions would fluctuate only when I talked to my junior brother. But since my junior brother wasn't often in the mountains, I brought Ruoyue back. It wasn't until you came that I realized the feeling seemed different. When I talked to you and you ignored me, I finally understood what the so-called 'sourness' in the book meant."
Ruan Mingyu said, "I won't die without love, but I will die without money. I think you are just asking for trouble by insisting on understanding what love is. I want to be as powerful as you, with a rich family background. I don't care whether he loves me or not. I will be happy alone."
Shen Yanyuan looked at him and suddenly asked, "Can I give you money so that you can stay with me?"
Ruan Mingyu: "Stop, don't tempt me with money. No matter how much you give me, it won't work. Birds always yearn for the sky."
Ruan Mingyu didn't want to stay with him anymore, so he took his fishing rod and sat on the riverbank. As he said, it would not snow here anymore. He could fish without breaking the ice.
He had just set up his fishing rod when he turned around and saw Shen Yanyuan appear again.
Shen Yanyuan sat next to him. He obviously wanted to talk to Ruan Mingyu, but he didn't know what to say.
His voice was cold, emotionless. After all, he and Song Chenxi were fellow apprentices, but Song Chenxi was different. There was always a hint of laughter in his voice, whether he was relaxed or angry.
Ruan Mingyu was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice Shen Yanyuan coming over to hold his hand, so he quickly moved his hand away.
Chen Yanyuan said, "That's not how you fish." He took the fishing rod and threw it, and soon a fish was caught.
Ruan Mingyu came to the river to fish just for fun. He actually just wanted to daydream. As for whether he could catch any fish, it was up to him.
After fishing for an entire afternoon, the fish I caught filled a bamboo basket.
They said they were here to fish, but in reality, most of the fish were caught by Shen Yanyuan. Ruan Mingyu sat on the shore and soon fell into a doze. He propped his head up with one hand, and his head drooped from time to time. Perhaps he had a nightmare, his brows knitted slightly, and his long eyelashes fluttered.
Shen Yanyuan looked at him and supported his chin with his hand to prevent him from falling to the ground.
He maintained that posture, regardless of the fish being hooked and the fishing rod being pulled continuously. For him, it seemed that the most important thing now was for Ruan Mingyu to have a good sleep.
Ruan Mingyu slept for a long time. When he opened his eyes and saw Shen Yanyuan's enlarged face, he was so scared that he fell backwards and almost fell into the pond. Fortunately, Shen Yanyuan was quick to grab his arm.
Ruan Mingyu smiled awkwardly.
Shen Yanyuan: "Continue to sleep?"
Ruan Mingyu couldn't sleep any more: "No."
He packed up and walked back. Chen Yanyuan was behind him, at a distance, and only stopped when he saw him return to the room.
Shen Yanyuan looked at him and suddenly called out, "Ruan Mingyu."
Ruan Mingyu pretended not to hear and quickly closed the door.
The three days were finally up. Ruan Mingyu took all the things he had accumulated and Shen Yanyuan sent him to the door.
Before leaving, Ruan Mingyu took the initiative to talk to him for the first time. He asked, "Do you know when your junior brother will be back?"
Shen Yanyuan: "Which junior brother?"
Ruan Mingyu: "Of course it's Song Chenxi!"
Shen Yanyuan: "I'm out of quarantine, I think he should be here soon."
Chen Yanyuan said: "If you want to come back, you can come back anytime."
Hasn't he had enough of the good life? He goes back to be locked in a cage.
Ruan Mingyu just smiled and said nothing.
Shen Yanyuan: "Can I have a hug? Just for once."
Ruan Mingyu: "No need."
He took out a bag of spirit stones, and Ruan Mingyu's eyes widened.
"It's not impossible. Just hug me as agreed."
Shen Yanyuan carefully held him in his arms. His cold heart suddenly seemed to beat rapidly.
Ruan Mingyu was held in his arms, and he raised his head: "It's time."
Shen Yanyuan's breathing became heavy: "Right away, just a little while, just a little while..."
Just at this moment, I heard the sound of rustling wind not far away, as if someone was moving quickly towards me.
Soon, Ruan Mingyu heard a very familiar voice. Although it was smiling, it was not difficult to hear the suppressed anger in it:
"Hey, did I interrupt you two old lovers' reunion? Ruan Mingyu, who told you to be so affectionate with him behind my back?"
The author has something to say:

Mingyu Diary:
I just hugged my employer that day, and Song has been acting weird for three days straight. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have gone and stabbed his senior brother. Why is that? [Chin in hand]
I'm posting a preview of "The Beautiful, Strong, Tragic and Traitorous Minister Reborn", please add it to your collection [Please]
Gentle and dark-hearted shou x careless and white-cut black gong
In his previous life, Jiang Linfei played power games and his hands were stained with blood. He did not die at the hands of the enemy, but died at the hands of his closest family members.
In his new life, Jiang Linfei only wanted to protect himself and stay away from disputes. He no longer wanted to shoulder the responsibility of revitalizing the family.
He wears gold and silver every day, treats himself to delicious food and drink, and lives for the moment.
I didn't expect that I took such good care of myself that I was noticed by the young general who was returning from the expedition!
-------------
The young general is young and strong, with plenty of power and means. Now that he has set his eyes on the son of a powerless minor official, it will be easy for him to capture him.
The young general was so reckless that he went straight to the door and said, "I like you. Are you willing to be with me?"
When he barged in, Jiang Linfei was playing the guqin, looking confused: "Is the young general drunk?"
Major General: "I'm serious, I like you."
Jiang Linfei was surprised: "We have only met a few times. I wonder what the general likes about me?"
The young general watched his slender white fingers stroking the guqin, his throat rolling: "Your guqin is very white..."
Jiang Linfei: “?”
