Chapter 209 Cunning and Scheming



Qinglu couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

So this is what the little female wanted to talk about last time.

Does her wanting to move so soon mean she's been bullied for a long time?

And when he first met her crying on the way, was it also because of this incident?

Qinglu felt extremely annoyed that the little female had been bullied for so long without his knowledge, and that he only came to protect her when things came to a head.

He should have been more attentive. If he had been more observant and noticed the way the females treated Yu Wanwan, she wouldn't have been bullied.

Yu Wanwan felt that Qinglu's gaze towards her was very strange, filled with sympathy and pity for the weak.

She felt that in Qinglu's eyes, she was like a homeless vagrant, in the dead of winter, not knowing where to go.

However, Yu Wanwan felt that she was not so miserable, so she found Qinglu's gaze very strange.

"Wanwan, if you encounter something like this again in the future, you must tell me." Please don't cry in secret.

Yu Wanwan nodded: "Don't worry, I know."

If something happens within someone else's jurisdiction, it must be very troubling for them, especially since it involves a major issue concerning females.

Qinglu comforted her for a long time, and only when he saw that Yu Wanwan looked tired did he help her lie down, and then go to arrange her accommodation.

Yu Wanwan pulled the blanket tighter around herself.

The blanket has a pleasant scent, like a sleep aid, and it makes me sleepy as I smell it.

She yawned, and before falling asleep, she was still thinking that Qinglu was so responsible. As an elder, he not only mediated disputes, but as a teacher, he also cared so much about his students. His character was absolutely outstanding and beyond reproach.

As an elder, Qinglu's image grew increasingly tall and imposing in Yu Wanwan's mind. This image began to radiate a golden light after Qinglu tirelessly and personally took care of everything for her.

So much so that for a long time afterward, whenever Yu Wanwan saw Qinglu, she had to squint her eyes to avoid being blinded by his brilliance.

The new place that Qinglu arranged for her was not far away at all; it was right in Qishan, next door to her.

Yu Wanwan was quite surprised by this location. After all, Su Hui had said that his elders had lived alone for many years because they preferred peace and quiet. Now that she was living so close to him, what if she disturbed him?

Seeing the doubt on Yu Wanwan's face, Qinglu explained, "There is no suitable place to stay on Dragon Island for the time being. This place is the only one that can be left. You can come to me directly if you need anything. And since you are staying next to me, no one will dare to bully you anymore."

Yu Wanwan twitched the corners of her mouth, thinking that although she had been bullied once, it didn't mean she would always be bullied.

Before he could even open his mouth, Qinglu went out. When he came back in, he was carrying a large bundle on his back: "These are all your things. I've organized them all for you. Take a look, and if anything is missing, remember to let me know."

When Yu Wanwan heard that he had finished tidying up, her heart skipped a beat. Taking advantage of Qinglu's inattention, she rummaged through the bundle and found a pile of wood fragments.

These are fragments of wood carvings, ravaged beyond recognition, and many are missing.

At this moment, Yu Wanwan was somewhat grateful to the females. Fortunately, they had gone all out; otherwise, if the dragon elders had recognized the wooden snake, she would have been in serious trouble.

After all, she dared to gamble that the females didn't recognize the snake's beast form, but she didn't dare to gamble that a knowledgeable elder might recognize it.

......

The cave was a wonderful place, and Yu Wanwan quickly accepted living next to the elder, happily tidying up her things.

For her, as long as there are no people she can't get along with, it doesn't matter where she lives.

Moreover, Yu Wanwan soon discovered how fortunate she was to live next to a conscientious, responsible, and considerate elder.

In the new cave, he helped prepare all the furnishings, whether Yu Wanwan had thought of them or not, everything was arranged perfectly.

Moreover, when Qinglu speaks, his eyes are focused and his tone is very gentle. He is not at all like the cold-faced elder that Su Hui and Yue Yang described. He is very easy to get along with.

Yu Wanwan sighed more than once that their prejudice against Qing law was too deep.

Qinglu carried a bouquet of flowers into Yu Wanwan's cave. She was busy tidying her clothes when she saw Qinglu enter. She smiled at him and said, "Elder."

Qinglu was dazzled by her smile, and his heart skipped a beat: "This cave has been uninhabited for a long time. I found some flowers for you so you can be more comfortable."

"Thank you, Elder."

It's really not easy to find so many flowers blooming so well in such cold weather. Apart from some evergreen plants, most of the other plants she saw outside had almost no leaves.

Yu Wanwan took the flowers and put them in a bottle.

"Elder, thank you for what happened before. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do now."

Qinglu had heard her say thank you several times already. Although her voice was very pleasant, this was not what he really wanted to hear: "It's okay. It's all because of my mismanagement that this happened."

Seeing the look of guilt on his face, Yu Wanwan quickly said, "No, it has nothing to do with you."

This elder had an incredibly strong sense of responsibility. Although she had said countless times that it wasn't his fault, he would feel extremely guilty every time the matter was brought up.
