Chapter 392 A Reunion Hug



Jian Ci subconsciously sent the address to Lu Boyan, and then sat in the lounge waiting.

As time passed, the sky outside the window became increasingly gloomy.

After a while, it started to drizzle.

About an hour later, Lu Boyan appeared at the door of the lounge.

Jian Ci, who was sitting there with her forehead supported by her hand and her eyes closed, opened her eyes when she heard the noise.

I saw that he was wearing a slim and straight coat with some rain on it, and he looked tired.

She immediately stood up, suppressed her slight discomfort, and called out, "Big Brother."

Although Lu Boyan didn't notice, he noticed her abnormality at a glance, "Why do you look so bad?"

Jian Ci didn't dare to reveal it, and just brushed it off lightly, "Maybe he was tired from the surgery just now."

Then he stood up and prepared to go downstairs.

But Lu Boyan opened his arms slightly at this time, "Don't you want to hug me? I haven't seen you for so long."

Jian Ci was stunned by Lu Boyan's words, "Huh?"

After all, she has been in the sect for so many years, and the eldest senior brother has always been steady and there are rarely such moments.

Before she could react, Lu Boyan had already taken the initiative to step forward and gently embraced her in his arms.

His hug was just right, with the right measure.

After a brief pause of two or three seconds, he let go.

It really seemed like it was just a hug between two senior and junior brothers and sisters who were reunited.

"You're still too thin. You need to eat more." Lu Boyan said with a bit of tenderness in his expression.

Jian Ci came back to her senses and joked, "Haven't you heard that a good woman is no more than a hundred years old?"

But Lu Boyan immediately frowned slightly, and his tone unconsciously became a little serious. "That's just a distorted aesthetic that men have set for women to satisfy themselves. How can you believe those words?"

Jian Ci: “…”

Well, it turns out that I can't tell this kind of joke to my senior brother.

She nodded immediately, "Oh, I see."

Seeing his junior sister lowering her eyes and looking obedient, Lu Boyan finally realized that his tone was a little too serious.

So he immediately softened his tone and said, "Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat."

Jian Ci nodded, "Okay."

The two of them walked down the stairs side by side.

After getting into the car, Jian Ci casually asked, "What are you planning to do in Kyoto this time, Senior Brother?"

Lu Boyan started the car, gripped the steering wheel, and said, "Nothing."

Jian Ci was a little puzzled, "Then why did you come to Kyoto?"

Lu Boyan drove out of the hospital and into traffic before turning his head to look at her. "I came here specially to see you."

Jian Ci's expression paused.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that her senior brother's attitude towards her seemed a little strange after not seeing him for half a year.

But she sat there calmly, saying casually, "I'm fine, no need to come here specially."

Lu Boyan smiled lightly, his tone gentle and teasing, "I came to see you on Master's orders. I heard that you've been on a killing spree in Kyoto recently, and the internet is full of news about you."

When this matter was mentioned, Jian Ci's expression relaxed and she said nonchalantly, "It's Xiongchuan Xiaoquan who is too annoying."

Lu Boyan chuckled, then asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Jian Ci said without hesitation: "Let's go to Jinghailou to eat. They have a new type of dim sum there recently, and it's quite delicious."

"good."

Lu Boyan turned on the navigation and headed towards Jinghai Tower.

When Jian Ci brought Lu Boyan into Jinghai Building, the lobby manager rushed over immediately, his face full of respect, "Miss Jian, you are here."

But when she saw Lu Boyan following behind her, that smiling face suddenly froze.

Why did they change people?

Where is Mr. Qin Wu?

The manager subconsciously glanced towards the door, and after making sure that he didn't see Qin Wuye, he had to secretly look at Lu Boyan again.

Although he is not as handsome and elegant as Master Qin Wu, he also looks very gentle and kind.

And most importantly, this person obviously cares about Miss Jane.

At that moment, his eyes became slightly alert.

But Jian Ci didn't care about this and just asked, "Manager, is there any room left?"

After the manager came to his senses, he nodded repeatedly, as if he was deliberately speaking for Lu Boyan to hear, and said, "Of course, ever since the Fifth Master knew that you loved the food here, he has reserved a private room all year round, saying that it is convenient for Miss Jian to come anytime."

At this moment, Lu Boyan glanced at the other person seemingly inadvertently.

In an instant, the other party felt a chill down his spine and didn't dare to speak anymore.

Under inexplicable pressure, after sending the person into the box, the man immediately left.

Lu Boyan watched Jian Ci pull out a chair and sit there with a familiar look on her face. He asked, "Do you come here often?"

Jian Ci poured the tea and nodded, "Yes, the food here is delicious."

Then he handed over one of the cups of tea.

Lu Boyan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then asked calmly, "Are you coming with someone else?"

Jian Ci didn't think much about it and just nodded.

Lu Boyan's lips curled up slightly, "It feels like I've missed a lot of things about you in the past six months."

"It's okay." Jian Ci didn't think too much about it. She just replied casually and then asked, "Is Master okay?"

Lu Boyan calmly replied with two words: "Not good."

Jian Ci paused while drinking tea, her expression slightly nervous. "What's wrong?"

Lu Boyan drank his tea calmly. "His apprentice accepted someone else as his master, and didn't even come back to apologize during the New Year. He was so angry that he drank several more glasses of wine."

After hearing this, Jian Ci finally relaxed, leaned back in her chair, chuckled, and said, "He clearly wants to drink, but he's using me as an excuse."

Seeing her leaning there lazily, Lu Boyan spoke in a calm tone with a hint of doting, "Master misses you very much. When do you plan to go back?"

Jian Ci stroked the cup, a dark look appeared in the depths of her eyes for a moment, and after a long while she spoke, "I'll go back after a while."

Lu Boyan looked at her expression and immediately thought of something, "I heard your grandfather is ill, how is he now?"

When mentioning the old man, a faint smile appeared in Jian Ci's beautiful eyes, "He's still lying there, eating and drinking for free in bed every day, and even tricking me into working for free."

Lu Boyan was a little surprised, "What do you mean?"

Jian Ci curled her lips, "The old man pretended to be sick and even teamed up with Senior Sister to deceive me, thinking I didn't know."

When Lu Boyan heard this, he realized that this was indeed something that Grandpa Jian Ci would do. He couldn't help but chuckle and then asked, "What about you? How is your health?"

The curve of Jian Ci's mouth slightly stiffened, and she pretended to be casual and said, "It's fine."

Lu Boyan looked at her straight in the eyes and asked again: "Are you still taking the medicine?"

Jian Ci lowered her eyes, looked at the cup on the table, and hummed without showing any emotion.

The atmosphere in the room gradually quieted down.

Fortunately, the manager personally brought in the food and broke the strange atmosphere.
