In fact, there is more than that. Bing Nandong has a lot of things he hasn’t said and doesn’t know how to start.
He brought Fan Zhiyi to his side out of kindness since childhood. He thought he was being good to Fan Zhiyi and that they were friends, but he had no idea what kind of life Fan Zhiyi was leading in Tianyunmen. Until Fan Zhiyi's hatred at the back cliff of the bamboo forest, everything that Bing Nandong thought was beautiful was torn apart.
He didn't understand why Fan Zhiyi hated him so much. Even after being pushed off the cliff, he couldn't figure it out. He also felt wronged and resentful.
When he came back alive from the cliff, he still didn't give up and wanted to clear up the misunderstanding first, but Fan Zhiyi avoided him. The only time they met, he just said coldly, "If you want me to forgive you, I will kill everyone in your Tianyun Sect, including you."
At this point, Bing Nandong and Fan Zhiyi finally became strangers. He hadn't even told Lu Changfu about what had happened on the cliff behind the bamboo forest.
However, when he saw Fan Zhiyi being bullied by his fellow disciples, Bing Nandong subconsciously tried to rescue him, but was stabbed in the back by Fan Zhiyi.
Bing Nandong still didn't understand why Fan Zhiyi treated him like this, but it didn't matter anymore. There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart. Bing Nandong lost the last bit of affection he had for Fan Zhiyi.
He severely punished those disciples who bullied their fellow disciples. As the eldest brother of Tianyun Sect, he had to be fair and not emotional. He used this incident as an example to warn the disciples of Tianyun Sect that they must be friendly and help each other.
As for Fan Zhiyi, no matter how much Fan Zhiyi hated him, Bing Nandong would always pay attention to the follow-up of this matter, that is, pay attention to Fan Zhiyi.
During this period, Fan Zhiyi poisoned him several times. One time, the incident was so serious that the head of the sect punished Fan Zhiyi, and his fellow disciples also blamed Fan Zhiyi for it.
Bing Nandong scolded them and told them not to use this as an excuse to cause trouble, and to focus on cultivation. After observing for a few days and seeing that no one was making things difficult for Fan Zhiyi, he no longer paid attention to him.
Come to think of it, they haven't seen each other or spoken to each other for several years since they were assigned to the Xue residence in the same group as Fan Zhiyi.
During those years, Fan Zhiyi never gave up on making things difficult for him. Bing Nandong pretended not to know, but he was not a fool. He had to greet those who wanted to kill him with a smile and maintain goodwill.
It was also because of going to Xue's house that Bing Nandong gradually learned the inside story, gradually understood why Fan Zhiyi hated him so much back then, and understood everything that Fan Zhiyi had suffered.
Coming to Tianyunmen was not salvation for him, but a step into another hell.
The fellow disciples who were so friendly to him treated Fan Zhiyi like a devil; there was another hidden story behind holding the candidate competition; the gradual changes in Tianyun Sect, all the affairs of Guimen, as well as the Sect Leader, Lu Changsheng, Qin Shuan and others... the things he had been protecting with all his strength and regarded as a part of his life, seemed to be different from what he thought.
From the sympathy for Fan Zhiyi in childhood to the affection for him as a junior fellow student, to the subsequent pain, sadness, resentment, disgust, self-blame and guilt, these emotions were all born with Fan Zhiyi on Bing Nandong's growth path.
Later on, he didn't know where the love that came from took root and sprouted like a seed that had been buried in his body long ago.
Bing Nandong didn't intend to say this, and perhaps he didn't intend to tell Fan Zhiyi, as this would only make things difficult for both parties.
If "Fan Zhiyi" had not become Fan Zhiyi, everything might have been easier than imagined.
But the words he said were a well-considered impulse, and Bing Nandong did not regret it.
He likes Fan Zhiyi and wants to be with Fan Zhiyi. To do this, he needs to resolve many things, including his own guilt.
Of course, it has not been resolved yet. If it were not for this disaster, Bing Nandong would probably have endured it for a while. He never expected that when he rushed here in a hurry, he would hear that Zhuang Yujing wanted to poach people. He was so angry that he confiscated Fan Zhiyi's communication tools.
Now that things have developed to this point, Bing Nandong feels that he and Fan Zhiyi need to have a good talk.
However, Fan Zhiyi's past was too complicated to be judged simply, and he could not completely blame others for the mistakes. After all, it was all caused by him.
Fan Zhiyi looked at Bing Nandong and found that his eyes showed the complicated emotions that only appeared when he mentioned Fan Zhiyi's past.
Fan Zhiyi asked, "Before I pushed you over the cliff, and from then until I was abandoned at the Xue residence, you had no idea what the Tianyun Sect disciples did to me, right?"
Bing Nandong pursed his lips. Although it sounded ridiculous, it was the fact. But Bing Nandong was afraid that Fan Zhiyi would not believe it.
Fan Zhiyi looked at Bing Nandong and said, "You just need to answer yes or no. As long as you say it, I will believe it."
"...Yes." Bing Nandong closed his eyes. This answer seemed to be very difficult for him. When he opened them again, his eyes were forced to regain their usual calmness.
Fan Zhiyi only wanted to know this answer. He had no answer to the rest. He was not the original body and had no qualifications to respond on behalf of the original body in this matter. According to the original body's personality, he should want to kill all those who bullied him and Bing Nandong.
Fan Zhiyi sighed. In just such a short period of time, he already felt exhausted. He wondered what else Bing Nandong would ask.
Bing Nandong observed his expression and then asked, "Do you have anything else to ask?"
"Will you answer everything I ask?"
Fan Zhiyi had asked this question before, and the answer he received was the same as always: "Not necessarily, Fan Zhiyi, there are some things I promised others not to tell."
Fan Zhiyi nodded: "You go ahead."
Ending this heavy topic seemed to make Bing Nandong feel much better. "Fourth, I have already dealt with Yue Tang's matter. I thought you would be eager to know the result and come to me these days."
Fan Zhiyi had never really thought about this problem. He just subconsciously felt that Bing Nandong would get things done, and would definitely tell him if there was any problem.
"Fan Zhiyi, have you missed me at all these days?"
Fan Zhiyi stared blankly at Bing Nandong who asked the question. The other party asked cautiously and sat with his back straight. He was always so upright.
Bing Nandong was not in a hurry. After waiting for Fan Zhiyi's answer for a long time, he said, "Then let me change the question. Fan Zhiyi, do you like me?"
Fan Zhiyi felt his heartbeat quicken. He was about to blurt out a rejection, but Bing Nandong quickly stopped him. "The person I like is timid, so he only needs to give this one answer, and I'll take care of the rest. That should be fine, right? His answer is enough to support me in walking up to him. But three times, Fan Zhiyi, I'm not the type to pester you. If you reject me three times, I won't pester you. So think carefully and follow your heart."
