After the black cloth was removed, Luo Qiu stood up.
“It’s you.”
Shen Hua: "It's me."
The remaining people looked at each other, confused and not understanding what was going on.
With a gesture from Luo Qiu, they all withdrew.
How did you end up here?
Luo Qiu didn't sit down this time, but walked over to Chen Hua with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
"Of course I need to talk to you about something."
Shen Hua lowered her head as if she were afraid, and also moved a little distance away from him.
"Something wrong? What is it? Or is it just an excuse the kid is using because he's playing around?"
Chen Hua: ...
Luo Qiu must have gone mad from cultivating! What kind of talk is that?
She looked at Luo Qiu with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot, forcing him to act normal.
"Okay! What is it?"
You shouldn't have believed those underlings; they were completely useless.
“Here, look for yourself,” Chen Hua said, handing him something before picking up an apple and starting to eat it.
Luo Qiu took the item, looked at what was inside, and immediately became serious. "So, you really know my master?"
Shen Hua: "I don't know it, I don't know it. It was just something the Venerable One asked me to bring when I was passing by. I can't see what's on it."
Luo Qiu stared at her for a long time, and seeing that she was still focused on eating the apple, he believed her, thinking that she wouldn't dare to lie to him.
"Since you're here, let's look at something together. I just discovered it recently, and I'm sure you'll find it interesting."
Since Shen Hua had some free time, she immediately nodded and said, "Okay, but you have to provide meals."
Luo Qiu chuckled and agreed.
"What would you like to eat? I'll have someone prepare it before you look at it."
"You can prepare whatever you want; let's look at what you suggested!"
Her apprentice had something good to share; if she hadn't come, she wouldn't have seen it.
Luo Qiu instructed his underlings on what to eat, then led Chen Hua to a room. Inside, besides a row of seats, there was a large screen in front of each seat.
It looked quite impressive, but the big screen was black at the moment. Luo Qiu turned it on after they sat down.
As soon as the screen turned on, many small animals appeared, the most eye-catching of which was a bird.
Shen Hua kept looking at it because she found that the screen was so big that even though she was just looking at it, she felt like she was actually there.
However, Luo Qiu changed the channel, and after a while, Xiang Shi Yue Tang appeared on the big screen.
Chen Hua: ...
To be honest, seeing herself so close up was quite a shock to her. After Luo Qiu switched to Xiang Shiyue Tang, she sat down.
Shen Hua didn't know if he did it on purpose, but he still had a faint smile on his face, and even when changing channels, he didn't change it, as if he had originally intended to play Xiang Shi Yue Tang.
Shen Hua immediately became alert. Her apprentice was very shrewd. Now that he had released this and invited her to watch it together, there must be some conspiracy involved. Perhaps he had already guessed something.
"What do you think? The recently released TV series has incredibly good-looking actors and amazing acting skills."
He didn't even need to say that; Shen Hua himself already knew.
"Well, it really is good. I can watch it here by myself. You should hurry up and do what your master told you to do."
Luo Qiu looked at her, a half-smile on his face, and said, "Can't you see it? How would you know what my master instructed me to do?"
Chen Hua: ...
I was careless.
"That's easy. I can't see it, but the Venerable One sent me a message. I'm familiar with Willow Village, so I can help out in the future."
"Okay! I'll have to trouble you from now on."
Chen Hua: ...
She felt that Luo Qiu was acting strangely today, making her feel unhappy even in front of such a big screen.
"It's no trouble at all."
The two of them sat there watching TV. There was nothing wrong with the silence, but she was familiar with the TV series and had already finished reading the novel. She couldn't concentrate on watching something she already knew a second time, so she started to drift off.
"Luo Qiu, may I ask why this place has suddenly become so heavily guarded?"
Luo Qiu paused for a second before speaking, "I'm not entirely sure about that either. After our gang's overall strength increased, it seems like a mysterious force wanted to infiltrate. The people coming are all sorts of people, and they're very cautious about what they're up to, so we haven't been able to find out."
"There's still this kind of trouble?" Shen Hua thought. "Luo Qiu has already handed over the method, and it's still like this. I guess those people's purpose is not for body-training techniques."
"Hmm! That sounds pretty scary, so you guys better be careful."
"Yes! I will, thank you for your concern."
Luo Qiu looked at her, unsure of what to say, and ultimately remained silent.
Chen Hua: ...
Is it really necessary to be so hesitant to speak? He's her apprentice; it's perfectly normal for her to care.
"Sister, sister, is that you?"
Just then, a small figure ran towards Chen Hua; it was none other than Luo Yi.
He ran over quickly and grabbed Shen Hua's arm. If Shen Hua hadn't been sitting, he would have grabbed her leg instead.
"Hmm, is Xiaoyi being good now?"
Luo Yi nodded vigorously and said, "Xiao Yi is very well-behaved now, and he is still a good child praised by the teacher. He just misses his sister."
This time, he didn't pester her to teach him any skills like he did last time. Instead, he focused on studying the textbook knowledge, which shows that Luo Qiu has put in a lot of effort.
"Hey, sister, are you and brother watching TV?"
Luo Yi looked at the people on TV with curiosity, then innocently asked, "Sister, that brother in there looks just like you!"
Two pairs of eyes looked over at the same time, and Shen Hua almost lost her composure.
You can even spot the resemblance in this? Impressive.
"Xiaoyi is mistaken. The guy in the picture is so handsome. How could I possibly look like him?"
"That seems true!"
Luo Yi was deep in thought, while Luo Qiu gave her a meaningful look before looking away.
...
That day, Shang Wenwen, who was usually not very talkative, suddenly became talkative.
"Chen Hua, is the Venerable One truly a cultivation fanatic?"
"Chen Hua, what does Your Excellency usually like to do?"
"Chen Hua, how did the Venerable One test you before?"
Wait, wait.
Shen Hua watched as she applied the ointment and bombarded her with questions, feeling utterly overwhelmed.
Only then did she realize that one lie requires many more to cover it up.
After thinking for a while, she finally spoke, "Yes and no. After all, a Venerable One is a Venerable One. How could we possibly see through him? As for what he likes to do..."
Shen Hua thought about herself at this moment. It seemed that she loved making money, and it seemed that Shang Wenwen knew about this. She said she was helping her make money, but now she was asking again. Was she asking about something else?
"What do you like to do?" Shang Wenwen asked impatiently.
"I don't know either. The Venerable One is so powerful, we can't see what she does, so asking me is almost the same as not asking at all."
