Chapter 118 Chapter 118 25
"You're back? Didn't your Sect Master Yu want to see you for something? How come you're back so soon?" Ruoruo heard footsteps and came out, opening the door a crack and sticking her head out.
The candlelight in the room was dim, but the sky outside the door had already darkened. Looking at her like this, Ruo Ruo's skin looked even more fair, her face was white and her lips were red, and her eyebrows and eyes were curved. Yu Heyan's heartbeat stopped, and the coldness between his eyebrows and eyes disappeared instantly, and in the blink of an eye, he was filled with innocence.
"Nothing special. He just recently made a new batch of calming pills and gave me a few. He also gave me some advice."
Yu Heyan said this without changing his expression. As he spoke, he even took out a small jade bottle of elixir from his bosom and showed it to Ruoruo.
Ruoruo blinked, opened the door, and when she lowered her head, she raised her eyebrows calmly, and the corners of her mouth also rose.
After Yu Heyan pushed the door open, he discovered that Ruoruo was wearing extremely thin clothes. His gaze fell on the exposed area above her chest, his eyes vague and incredulous.
She was so white, so white that Yu Heyan felt his mouth dry and even felt timid. In fact, Ruo Ruo was wearing quite a lot, but when Yu Heyan was himself, he even had a hard time talking to her, let alone such a thing - such a thing... Yu Heyan blushed and lowered his head.
"What's wrong with He Chen? Weren't you very brave just now?" Ruoruo approached him and looked straight into his eyes.
Hearing the word "He Chen", Yu Heyan instantly became much more sober and no longer avoided looking away, but the redness on her cheeks would not fade away.
But he didn't expect that Ruoruo would get closer and closer, and he only needed to stretch out his hand slightly to hug her in his arms.
But he didn't do that. Instead, he took a step back, feeling bitter.
It seemed like everything he had was stolen. Even now, with the beauty in front of him, he kept calling out the names of Yu and Chen.
He just didn't want anything to happen between Yu Hechen and Ruoruo. As for himself... he had originally come with the idea of getting close to Ruoruo, but he didn't expect to get so close.
In this way, Ruoruo, Yuhechen and others will hate him, he thought to himself.
But when Ruo Ruo drooped her eyes and said pitifully, "But isn't this what being a Taoist couple is all about? He Chen, are you lying to me?"
Yu Heyan's persistence collapsed in an instant, or perhaps he didn't have much persistence to begin with, and retreating was just a superficial action, but in his heart he was screaming at himself not to be patient.
"I'm not lying to you - Taoist couples can indeed do such things, but once they do such things, they really become Taoist couples. Ruo Ruo, are you sure you won't regret it?" Yu Heyan's eyes flickered, with an inexplicable brilliance in his pupils.
When he said this, his expression was serious and earnest, unlike the expressions Yu Heyan usually showed.
But Ruo Ruo still seemed unaware, she just smiled and tilted her head to look at him, "But I already agreed to become a Taoist partner with Chen today!"
Yu Heyan's expression darkened noticeably, and he even coughed twice on purpose, unable to bear it any longer.
"Weren't you eager to try it just now? Why are you acting like this after I've already finished reading the book?" Ruoruo pushed him unhappily and threw the book hidden on the bed onto the table.
Yu Heyan took just a quick glance and then looked away in panic, secretly cursing what Yu Hechen had learned outside the sect during this time, and how - how could there be such a book?
But in reality, even holding hands made her blush, and Yu Hechen, feeling very satisfied, said: ...
Even if one day he were asked in the face, he would definitely say with a blank look on his face: "I don't know either!"
Ruo Ruo didn't care what he was thinking. She followed the movements in the book and moved closer to him step by step. She reached out and grabbed his collar, pulling him towards her.
She didn't use much strength, but Yu and Yan were pulled over by her just like that.
As she moved, Yu Heyan's collar loosened, revealing the attractive little mole on his collarbone. Ruo Ruo tilted her head to the right, moved closer, and her lips touched his collarbone.
It's very cold, with an innate chill.
In fact, Yu Heyan didn't know that he had always been different from Yu Hechen. Yu Hechen's body temperature was warm, often even boiling hot, but he always had a kind of coldness that could not be erased or concealed by disguise.
But it was precisely because of this coldness that Ruoruo chose him between the two of them, instead of exposing him and staying away from him from the beginning.
This is because such weakness can alleviate the problem of difficulty in leaving offspring caused by cultivation.
Moreover, the sick beauty pretended to be healthy, which naturally had a different flavor in Ruo Ruo's eyes.
Unlike Ji Binyang's pretended weakness, Yu Heyan was truly weak, or even sickly. Even though he could pretend to be normal at other times, he could not pretend to be normal on the bed.
But precisely because of this, Ruoruo can gain more initiative.
With a smile in her eyes, she teased him little by little, watching him beg with red eyes and sweat, and then she slowly gave him some sweet water.
…
The next day.
The two did not wake up naturally, but Yu Hechen knocked on the door with red eyes, ignoring others' attempts to stop them.
If this wasn't Ruoruo's door, Yu Hechen would have kicked it open, but now he could only wait outside with red eyes, knocking on the door again and again.
"Young Master, the Young Master really isn't in there. It was really the Sect Master who sent me to call you last night. You...why don't you believe it?"
The panicked voices of Yu Heyan's subordinates were heard, and Yu Heyan, who was woken up by the noise, twitched the corners of his mouth.
Is this how it is explained? Didn't he order Xiao Si to do this? Why is it Xiao Wu's voice now? Is this something Xiao Wu can handle clearly? Yu Heyan sighed deeply.
He turned to look at Ruoruo, who still had a confused look in her eyes.
"Are you awake?" Yu Heyan pursed his lips. Last night he had planned to confess his guilt to Ruoruo today. Now it seemed that there was no need for him to confess. He just had to wait for Yu Hechen to come in, and everything would be revealed.
No, even if Ruoruo had woken up early and listened to Xiaowu's words, she should have been suspicious by now.
Thinking of this, his face turned pale.
Ruoruo rubbed her body and looked outside with a puzzled look, as if she had not heard what Xiaowu had just said.
Yu Heyan breathed a sigh of relief, but then there was a more urgent knock on the door.
Yu Hechen didn't know what expression he should have now.
Last night, Xiaowu came to see him. Although he was reluctant to leave Ruoruo, he thought about the long time to come and followed without thinking too much. But halfway through the journey, he felt something was wrong, because his father was looking for him, so why would Xiaowu, who was with his eldest brother, come to call him?
He also asked if Xiaowu's elder brother was at his father's place, but Xiaowu hesitated and couldn't explain clearly.
As a brother, he also had some understanding of the subordinates around Yu Heyan. He had previously teased Yu Heyan about how Xiaowu couldn't even lie. Every time he told a lie, he would stammer and stammer, and his expression was more guilty than if he had killed someone. No, he didn't feel guilty about killing people, but he felt guilty about lying.
And now, his expression was typical of someone who was extremely guilty.
No matter how naive or foolish Yu Hechen was, they could still detect something wrong in his expression.
Thinking of how often their brother had appeared in front of them and Ruoruo in recent times, Yu Hechen always felt uneasy. They turned around and wanted to run back, but Xiao Wu covered their nose and mouth with his hands expressionlessly, and they fainted in an instant.
Before he fell into coma, an idea popped up in his mind: this Xiaowu can't lie, but he is very good at doing this kind of thing.
What Yu and Chen didn't know was that it was Xiao Wu who did this, otherwise he wouldn't have fainted for just one night. Only Xiao Wu, who was meticulous in his work, would have gone to such great lengths to ensure the effects of the medicine he used would last only one night.
Yu Hechen fainted, but Xiao Wu did not forget to take Yu Hechen to a place far away from Yirongju, and then began to practice quietly beside the unconscious Yu Hechen. After practicing for a whole night, he began to face Yu Hechen's questioning again early in the morning.
The first place Yu Hechen went to was Yu Heyan's room. He just wanted to ask his elder brother whether he also liked Ruoruo, so he used this method to separate him and Ruoruo last night.
Although Yu Hechen was angry at that time, he understood what his elder brother did. After all, that was Ruoruo, and it was normal for his elder brother to like her when he saw her.
But he will never give in.
This time, no matter what happens, he will not back down or give up what he wants.
But when he opened the door, he found that the room was empty.
"Where is the eldest brother?" Yu Hechen turned around and asked Xiaowu who had followed.
Xiaowu shook his head and said nothing. If you didn't know him, you would think he was mute.
"Where did Xiao Si go?"
Xiao Wu spoke only after hearing this question, "His bottleneck suddenly loosened yesterday. I don't know where he broke through." Some people need opportunities to break through at certain stages. If they can't wait for the opportunity, they may be stuck there for many years. If they wait for it, they can make rapid progress.
And yesterday, Xiao Si sensed that opportunity.
Yu Hechen sneered, "So if it wasn't a coincidence yesterday, the person who came to stop me and informed my father that he was looking for me was Xiao Si, right?"
Xiaowu stopped talking again.
Yu Hechen was almost laughing because of him, but the fact that he didn't say anything and didn't answer his questions was very telling.
So he hurried to Ruoruo's door. There was no formation here to fortify it. He only needed a spell to open it easily, but he didn't dare to do that. He could only knock on the door again and again, praying that Ruoruo would open the door for him with a smile as before, and ask why he came to see her so early in the morning.
But Ruoruo didn't.
Soon, voices were heard in the house.
It was clearly a male voice, a tone he was very familiar with.
So he knocked on the door even harder. He told himself over and over in his heart that it was impossible, and he wanted to close his senses and not listen to the noise inside.
Someone came to open the door.
But it was not the Ruoruo that Yu Hechen was thinking about, but an extremely familiar face.
Even the clothes, accessories, and styles of shoes on his feet were so familiar to him.
He looked down at his clothes, then at the person inside, his brows filled with endless bitterness and sorrow.
"Hehe." Yu Hechen tried hard to pull the corners of his mouth.
