A few monotonous sentences such as "Thank you, young lady", "Thank you for your help, young lady", "I am ashamed that You Su's painting skills are not good enough to depict the essence of my senior sister/sister, so I cannot keep you as a person in my painting." Luo Jiujiang's ears were numb from listening to them for the whole afternoon, but You Su still smiled gently without any impatience.
In addition, Luo Jiujiang also understood why he and Shang Hanjiao had been treated differently before - the people who were left in the building by You Su to bathe, change clothes and receive meals were all men.
Luo Jiujiang had been on guard before, so he was distracted. You Su's behavior was very easy to understand from the perspective of etiquette: what's the big deal about leaving a girl alone to take a bath!
Most girls waited a day simply to exchange a few words with Master You and receive a flower from him. Some came prepared, leaving You Su with a few scrolls of calligraphy and paintings, and a food box. Those who could go upstairs to see You Su in person were mostly women from the academy. They were quiet and reserved, and they knew You Su's habits, so they didn't stay long.
Just when Luo Jiujiang thought that this meeting with a fixed procedure was about to end, the female cultivator in the pink dress suddenly leaned over and grabbed You Su's hand.
Luo Jiujiang sat up straight.
The girl still had a childish face, her features still undeveloped. Her face was flushed but her eyes were determined. She held You Su's hand and was shaking with excitement. "Master You... I, I met you when I entered the sect last year."
You Su looked clearly bewildered. The moment his skin touched the girl's, his expression went blank. He could only listen blankly as she continued, "You were sitting on the lotus platform with Master Yingyun at the time. The senior sisters below were calling you repeatedly, and a senior brother nearby was annoyed by their noise... You heard it, so you threw a handful of spiritual mist at us... I had a gardenia bud in my hair that day, and it blossomed when it touched the spiritual mist, and you even smiled at me..."
At this point, the girl tugged You Su towards her, causing him to blush all the way to his neck. The girl looked You Su straight in the eyes, not allowing him even a moment of evasion, and tremblingly said, "Mr. You, I admire you."
You Su's eyes dodged, his ears flushed crimson. His eyes darted around, and his usually gentle voice became dry: "Girl, please let go... You, you're still young."
The girl in pink did not let go as You Su wished.
She pressed the back of You Su's hand against the table, then leaned forward, buried her face in You Su's arm, and cried three times, "Young Master." After crying, she pushed You Su's arm away decisively, straightened her hair, stood up, and bowed gracefully: "Cai Cai curling ears, not even enough to fill the basket. My name is Lian Cai Cai, young master, please don't forget me."
She walked out of the house briskly, without any hesitation, and her expression seemed to indicate that she would never come back.
You Su was left alone, staring blankly at the desk, his face still burning red.
Seeing him like this, Luo Jiujiang felt sympathy for him and called a maid to fetch water for You Su to wash his face. You Su changed his clothes again, and the red on his back had finally faded a little, but his eyes were still a little dazed.
"I've packed everything, you can ask them to come in," he said softly.
"Wait a minute." Luo Jiujiang couldn't bear to see it anymore and stopped him, "Brother You, you are in this state now, are you still going to continue to meet those beauties downstairs one by one?"
You Su raised his eyes. Although his expression was still humble, his temperament was actually a little pitiful. "They have been waiting for a whole day."
If You Su was a seasoned lover, adept at navigating the world of women, Luo Jiujiang wouldn't have stopped him. But seeing how he was so overwhelmed yet still forcing himself to meet people seemed a bit soft-hearted. He patiently said to the bewildered You Su, "What were you thinking about that girl just now...Brother You?"
These words were like lighting a fire in the medicine barrel. You Su's face, which had just been cooled down by ice, turned red again.
"She shook my hand." You Su murmured unconsciously, half-clenching his hand: "She shook my hand."
Luo Jiujiang: "..." So innocent?!
Ever since meeting You Su, Luo Jiujiang couldn't help but feel in disbelief. He sighed fatalistically and asked helplessly, "Brother You, has no girl ever done this before?"
You Su looked at him in panic, his eyes clear and black. His innocent gaze was so devastating that Luo Jiujiang couldn't help but raise his hand to shield his eyes: "...I understand."
"Don't see those girls anymore. It's not easy for you to talk now." Luo Jiujiang made a decision for him and casually placed his hand on his palm. "It's okay. It's not unusual to touch hands. I saw that the girl had forgotten about it when she left. You shouldn't take it so seriously."
You Su whispered, "But they are still waiting..."
"This matter? It's easy." Luo Jiujiang almost laughed out loud when he saw that his face was so hot but he was still worried about this. He asked the maid to bring You Su's flower basket filled with intact flowers. He walked to the window in three or two steps and pushed it open. The silk curtain and his handsome head stuck out of the window, which was indescribably eye-catching.
"Mr. You is as gentle as jade, unparalleled in the world. There is no need to ask this. I also ask all the senior sisters and junior sisters to look at me, so what?"
Even though the women in the academy tended to be more elegant, those who could chase him downstairs to Yousu Tower to see him were often lively. Now that they saw Luo Jiujiang sitting upstairs in Yousu Tower, they thought he wasn't a bad person, so they all joked about him.
"Junior brother, you are so handsome that we are overwhelmed by your beauty."
"You have such a charming temperament, you are already 80% as good as Mr. Shangyou!"
"I'll lend you the mirror. Take a look for yourself and see who the handsome man in there is."
Luo Jiujiang accepted all the teasing with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, senior sisters and junior sisters! Master You and I hit it off right away. I only regret that we couldn't have a good chat right away. I hope you can lend me a little favor with your handsome face and give me a chance to have a drink with Master You, okay?"
