Although they weren't going to discuss official business today, Mu Qingren didn't care about anything else in order to get Jing Zhe away. She even casually mentioned Jing Zhe's name, which made the sect leaders very curious. Yu Bo and the other two were even more shocked: How come even Pavilion Master Mu knows him?
Such an opportunity is rare and hard to come by. Jing Zhe even suspected that Mu Qingren was all bark and no bite and was deliberately helping him!
So he stood up with a smile.
But Qingqiu didn't get up to let him have his way. Instead, she held her chopsticks in her hand, her gaze somewhat vacant.
"Fairy Maiden, Fairy Maiden!"
Jing Zhe patted Qing Qiu on the shoulder.
As the only one in the know, Wang Yingqiu sighed inwardly. What was bound to happen would happen eventually; she could only hope that her man would have a good time.
However… I seem to be in some danger myself.
After all, he's his friend's younger brother...
At this moment, Qingqiu suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with emotions that Jing Zhe had never seen before, and asked in a low voice, "You... what's your name?"
"Um... Jing Zhe..."
Jing Zhe scratched his head and laughed somewhat guiltily, "That Ah Kun was just my pen name, so it's not like I lied to the Fairy! After all, the Fairy never asked for my real name!"
"Smack!"
Qingqiu's mind went blank for a moment, and the chopsticks in her hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
She looked up again, her eyes filled with an unusually complex expression.
It seemed that shock, joy, confusion, bewilderment, and other emotions were all mixed together, leaving Jing Zhe completely dumbfounded.
Before he could even ask "What's wrong?", Qingqiu suddenly stood up, then swayed slightly and walked out alone.
Jing Zhe stood there, at a loss.
Upon seeing this, Yu Bo immediately got up and followed him out.
"Stop looking, come sit down!"
After Qingqiu left, Mu Qingren dared not let Jing Zhe stay, giving him and Wang Yingqiu a chance to meet alone.
Jing Zhe thought for a moment, then winked at Wang Yingqiu, signaling her to go out and take a look.
Wang Yingqiu immediately understood. After Jing Zhe followed Mu Qingren back to the next room, she also got up and went out, though she had a bitter smile on her face.
What can I say about something like this, a woman who stole her best friend's brother?

PS: Writing today was a bit tough. I just finished and won't divide it into chapters anymore, so I'll combine them into one. Subscribers can refresh the page in a few minutes to read it. I'll add a separate chapter below later, which won't count towards the word count, so I won't put it in the separate chapter (I feel like it's not good to keep posting separate chapters). I did some silly things today, and I'd like to share them with you guys (well, those of you who use Qidian probably already know). *facepalm*
They've arrived.
It's not a separate chapter.
Recently, the big fans who are following this book have been asking for me to write a self-destruction scene every day. I also want to write one, but as I write, I feel like: Damn, why is this so hard to write?
Before I knew it, we were at today's stage (mainly because the updates were so slow, otherwise we would have reached the martial arts tournament by now).
However, I still exposed myself today (I'm sure I'll get a lot of flak for this, but I still need to think about what to do next).
I finally had a day off today, but it took even more time. I only managed to write 6,000 words in half a day. The rest of the time... I drove with my wife, it was kind of exciting, yeah.
Later, in the authors' group, I saw them saying that investing in Silver-level characters now was a good deal, and I had a brain fart. I secretly transferred my royalties from the past two months to Qidian in batches without my wife's knowledge...
Okay, next up is my silly move: I created a Silver-tier character for myself...
Actually, I've been dreaming of having one, which is why I acted so impulsively. It's not for the reward money; the main reason is that this book doesn't have many recommendation resources. It's been almost two months, and it's getting worse and worse. At least a Silver rank would get a site-wide splash screen effect, which could give it a lifeline...
But recently there have been too many people giving tips across the entire site. When my collection didn't move for half an hour after I gave a silver tip, I was completely stunned.
This is... ridiculous.
But since we've already started fighting, there's only one problem I'm struggling with now.
How am I going to explain this to my wife tonight?
I can imagine what she would say.
Others make money writing books, why are you putting money into it?
That's really a bit silly.
Let's wait and see how it goes tomorrow, and see if we can salvage it.
Yeah, the plot has been dragging a bit lately. I need to organize the outline more carefully and try to speed things up...
Same as always.
