Chapter 75 Chapter 75 (Exposed Shoulders) Does it look good? ...
Hearing his senior brother's words that sounded like he was coaxing a child, Ji Chu wanted to laugh, but at the same time he felt even more aggrieved.
"I'm not okay at all."
She looked away, deliberately avoiding looking at her senior brother's expression:
"I defeated Kong Huiduan before the Immortal Questioning Conference, and then killed Xue Xianchen during the conference."
Meng Yuci recalled for a moment and said with understanding:
"They are both...it's okay. They are not upright people. Winners are kings and losers are bandits. There is no way to criticize them."
Ji Chu was a little surprised. He turned his eyes back to look at him, then quickly turned away.
"I still hate Elder Shen. If I could beat him, I would still want to beat him."
Meng Yuci pinched her cheek without showing any displeasure. Instead, he said:
"Then don't be lazy in your training. With your talent, you will have an opportunity soon."
“…”
Ji Chu was really surprised this time.
She turned her gaze back completely and stared straight at Meng Yuci, hoping to see an expression of anger or disappointment on his face:
"What if I hate Xue Wanning and I want to drive her away? Wouldn't you be angry too?"
Meng Yuci rubbed her face, smoothing away the red marks he had left, and chuckled:
"Then it depends on your own ability. Why should I be angry? Do you really want my senior brother to help you drive them away?"
Ji Chu frowned, took a breath, and let it out like a sigh. Then he stopped talking and stared at him with a pout, as if he wanted to poke two holes in his face.
Meng Yuci pretended to be confused and raised his eyebrows slightly in response to her gaze.
Ji Chu looked at him for a while, and apart from finding that his senior brother was good-looking no matter what, he couldn't find any other problems.
But she didn't feel relieved.
After a while, she had seen enough and her eyes were tired, so she looked away and said in a sullen voice:
"No matter what, when you find out that I'm not good enough, you won't say that. You will say..."
As she was speaking, she suddenly stopped, lowered her head, and didn't continue.
"What would I say?"
Meng Yuci rubbed her face with his fingertips, his movements were gentle and his tone was especially gentle, as if he was enticing her to continue speaking.
Ji Chu didn't want to say it at first, but her senior brother's touch made her feel like a cloud that was carefully gathered. She couldn't help but want to shrink in her senior brother's fingertips and never go out.
So she took a deep breath and mustered her courage and said:
"You will say that I am your enemy and you will kill me."
Meng Yuci paused.
His expression froze for a moment, his brows furrowed, as if a huge shadow had suddenly cast a shadow in front of him, causing his dark eyes to dim and become bottomless.
But he soon returned to his normal appearance, gently put his arm around Ji Chu's shoulders, and gently pressed her onto him;
His other hand gently stroked her hair until his fingertips touched the feathery flowers on the back of her neck. He then spoke in a low voice:
"sorry."
Ji Chu did not resist and leaned obediently on his senior brother's chest.
She put her nose against her senior brother's clothes and smelled the cool fragrance on him again.
It smells so good, like diving into fluffy snow and being wrapped up in it from front to back. You don't feel suffocated, but you feel a sense of peace and security, away from everything and without being discovered.
When the senior brother spoke, a muffled vibration would come from his chest, and along with his heartbeat, it would reach Ji Chu's ears.
Like the dull beat of a drum, Ji Chu's eyes felt sore and his breathing became stagnant and trembling.
After listening for a while, she suddenly didn't want to do this anymore.
"Why do you want to apologize, brother?"
She buried her head in his arms, quietly reached out and grabbed the clothes around his waist, listened to his heartbeat, suppressed the sour, aggrieved, and complicated emotions in her heart, and interrupted the topic with a nonchalant tone:
"It's not you who said that, brother."
“…”
Meng Yuci fell silent, his fingers stopping at the back of her neck, deftly running through her hair, finding the protruding bone.
His fingertips gently rubbed that place, and the warmth from her body gradually spread to his fingertips.
He traced the shape of Kong Yu Fu Hua with his fingertips for a long time, then whispered:
"Um."
Ji Chu couldn't help but use his fingers to grab the clothes around his waist and make them into a mess.
She felt like she was trapped in a huge whirlpool, with the force pulling her down. She didn't know whether there was a dangerous abyss ahead, but she still couldn't help but reach out, wanting to know what she would encounter in the abyss.
It’s too dangerous…
She closed her eyes, feeling the touch on the back of her neck.
On one side is the senior brother who seems to be reliable and trustworthy, and on the other side is the disappointment and despair of the previous life.
A voice in her heart said:
You can't allow yourself to fall back into the same situation as in your previous life.
If you have expectations, you will be disappointed. If you don’t have expectations, you won’t be disappointed.
We agreed to keep our distance and be just ordinary brothers and sisters. What are you doing now?
…
Ji Chu opened his eyes, was silent for a moment, let go of his senior brother's clothes, and took a step back.
Meng Yuci felt empty inside.
He did not stop her, but watched her stand still, and then said to him with determination:
"Brother, what I just said was nonsense. I won't hit Elder Shen, and I won't provoke Xue Wanning. Don't take it to heart."
She glanced at the bloodstains on his neck:
"As for the sword wound... I'm sorry. I'll go into seclusion and meditate when I get back, reflecting seriously. I won't be lazy at all!"
As she said this, she turned around and wanted to run away.
Meng Yuci felt like he was about to hold his breath and before he could catch his breath, she hit him back with this look.
He was speechless and helpless for a moment.
Look at Ji Chu's expression. He refuses to see him for several days. Is he trying to avoid him?
He was not the kind of person who would sit and wait for death. He could also feel that now that things had come to this, if he really let Ji Chu run away, he was afraid that the next time they met, she would pretend not to know him again.
If he suddenly can't figure it out, maybe even his fellow brothers and sisters won't want to work with him anymore.
He always felt that this was what she intended.
"Ji Chu."
Meng Yuci suddenly called her.
Ji Chu paused and subconsciously wanted to speed up his escape.
"You scratched me with a sword, and all you have to do is say sorry?"
A faint voice came from behind me, that of my senior brother.
Ji Chu finally stopped and looked back at him nervously, his eyes repeatedly looking at the bloodstain on his neck, his expression full of annoyance:
"I'm so sorry..."
Although she thought this minor injury might be healed tomorrow, it was her fault after all, so it was better to deal with it as soon as possible, so she said:
"Then, shall I go find some medicine for Brother's injuries?"
Meng Yuci had no expression on his face:
"Xunzhen is not an ordinary sword. Ordinary medicine cannot cure it."
"What about using spiritual power to heal injuries?"
"I was injured by the thunder and the injury has not yet healed. It is not advisable to use too much spiritual power."
"Heavenly thunder..."
Ji Chu opened his mouth but didn't say the rest of the sentence:
Didn’t you say “it’s nothing serious” at that time?
And wasn't he just practicing swordplay with her? He didn't look like he was "still seriously injured"?
Besides, the sword wound on his neck was just a small wound. How much spiritual energy could it waste? Couldn't he even heal himself?
"Then what should I do..."
Ji Chu knew that he was in the wrong, so he could only swallow his rebuttal and hope that the wound would heal on its own.
But she hesitated for a long time, looking at his wound again and again, and found that it was still bleeding and there was no sign of healing at all.
She became increasingly annoyed, not knowing what had gotten into her mind at that moment. Why had she resorted to violence?!
She wanted to hit herself on the head a few times.
Meng Yuci took a step closer to her and deliberately raised his hand to rub the wound on her neck.
Then he lowered his eyes to glance at the blood on his fingertips, wiped it away with his thumb, and looked at her again:
"I can find someone to help heal my wounds, but their cultivation level is not as high as mine, so it will take more effort."
Ji Chu's expression became more and more conflicted.
Secretly, she didn't want to stay with her senior brother for too long.
After all, the wound is on the neck, and if it is treated, it will inevitably be too close, and it will take "more effort", which will be endless.
But if she said she didn't want to, it would seem that she was unreasonable. After all, she was the one who caused the wound.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Meng Yuci continued:
"Not as good as you..."
“Senior Brother!”
Ji Chu got excited and didn't respond to the question of healing. Instead, he interrupted him and suggested:
"I regret injuring my brother so much that I wish I could die in his place. How about you, brother, strike me with your Xunzhen Sword?"
When Meng Yuci heard this, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at her, seeing that she was indeed not joking, but sincerely wanted to get even with him in this way, even summoning the Xunzhen Sword and holding it in her hand.
Would you rather hurt yourself than get too close to him?
He was so angry at her that he wanted to laugh, but his face remained cold, his eyes locked on her face, and he asked word by word:
"Ji Chu, who do you think I am?"
Ji Chu was swept by his cold gaze, and the courage that he had just felt in a rush of excitement immediately disappeared. He realized that he had gone too far.
Senior brother... he is my senior brother after all.
Even if a stranger was accidentally injured by her, she couldn't be so irresponsible!
So she quickly put away her sword:
"I'm sorry, Brother, I was just talking nonsense..."
Now that things have come to this, she can no longer avoid the problem.
"Let me heal my brother. I'm free and have plenty of time."
*
Ji Chu half-closed his eyes and controlled himself not to look at his senior brother's shoulder.
But because the sword wound was below the collar, the senior brother simply took off half of his clothes to make it easier for her to deal with it.
Although she was careful enough, she still caught a glimpse of a cold jade-like white out of the corner of her eye.
The muscles and bones are well-proportioned, the clavicle is clear, and the well-defined muscles extend vertically deeper into the body, faintly visible...
"Does it look good?"
Caught off guard by his senior brother's words, Ji Chu suddenly realized what he was doing. His face flushed red, and he closed his eyes and turned his head away, pressing hard on the wound with one hand.
Meng Yuci let out a muffled groan from his throat, as if he was enduring pain.
This sound was also very sexy. Ji Chu couldn't help but scratch his fingers and felt the muscles under his hands tense for a moment.
The next moment, his wrist was grabbed and lifted into the air.
Meng Yuci pulled her hand away from his wound, glanced sideways, and saw a pool of blood.
He laughed and couldn't help saying:
"Ji Chu, are you healing?"
Ji Chu also saw the blood on his fingertips and felt extremely ashamed:
"...I'm sorry, brother."
She really didn't mean it. Who made her senior brother take off his clothes and expose his shoulders... and suddenly speak to scare her?
Seeing that her senior brother was still staring at her, she moved her bloody fingers suspended in the air and assured him:
"Brother, please give me another chance. I will definitely not be distracted this time."
Ji Chu was standing and his senior brother was sitting.
This angle neutralizes his overly delicate and sharp facial features, making him look more approachable.
Hearing this, Meng Yuci glanced at her sideways, with the corners of his eyes slightly raised, his thick long eyelashes half-covered, outlining an arc that was so beautiful that it was almost enchanting, and a faint light was flowing in the bottom of his eyes.
He did not let go of her hand, but said:
"You haven't answered me yet."
Facing Ji Chu's puzzled and focused expression, he turned his head slightly, his eyelashes trembling, as if he smiled, his voice unspeakably soft.
"Does it look good?"
