Upon hearing the second half of the sentence, coupled with Pei Yunxi's genuine emotions, Jing Zhe seemed to understand something.
She stood up and walked to Pei Yunxi's side, saying softly, "Fourth Sister, what I told you about practicing martial arts that night—or rather, what I told Third Sister about healing my injuries—was just an excuse! If I didn't care about you, how could I dare to say I was practicing martial arts?"
"..."
Pei Yunxi pursed her lips and looked at him without saying a word.
Jing Zhe continued, "Of course, my feelings for Third Sister weren't for healing. Back when I didn't even know she was Third Sister, we already had feelings for each other. Otherwise, Fourth Sister wouldn't think that Third Sister, given her personality, would accept having a relationship with me even if it was just for healing."
"..."
Pei Yunxi remained silent, but seemed to have acknowledged what Jing Zhe had said. She knew her third sister's personality well, which was why she had never understood why the two of them had developed feelings for each other so quickly. Now she understood that they had already had feelings for each other after they met, and healing was just a way to push them to the final step...
She breathed a sigh of relief for Qingqiu, but at the same time, she suddenly felt a little empty...
"So, it's not what Fourth Sister thinks. Can Fourth Sister understand us now?"
"oh."
Pei Yunxi gave a listless reply, her expression revealing neither joy nor anger.
So Jing Zhe pushed Pei Yunxi and made her sit on the bed.
"Alright, if you came here just to tell me about your relationship with Third Sister, then I know. You can go back now."
After Pei Yunxi sat down, she became somewhat depressed, and her tone of voice turned cold.
"Wait a minute, Fourth Sister, I have something important to tell you!"
"What important matter is it?"
"It's the competition this afternoon..."
"That one..."
Pei Yunxi looked up at him and thought to herself, "At least you still have some conscience and know to care about your fourth sister!"
"Don't worry, Qiu Qianqian's cultivation level is only at the peak of the fifth level. She's no match for me and won't pose any threat to me!"
"Yes, I know that."
Jing Zhe twisted his hands, suddenly displaying a shyness that was quite out of character for him, which puzzled Pei Yunxi.
"You know? If you know, then why are you telling me?"
Pei Yunxi said with some dissatisfaction, thinking to herself, "This guy is usually so sweet-talking when he talks to Third Sister Qingqiu, so why does he become so sarcastic when he talks to me?"
Would it kill you to say a few caring words?
How stupid!
"Um, I wanted to tell my fourth sister..."
Jing Zhe hesitated for a moment, then finally mustered his courage and said, "Actually, I want Fourth Sister to not go too far in the martial arts competition this afternoon. Just stop when you've made a point, and that's enough!"
"..."
Pei Yunxi stared at Jing Zhe for a long time, and some guesses suddenly came to mind, but she felt that it was unlikely: Although he was thick-skinned, he shouldn't be so bold, right?
"Why? What's your relationship with Qiu Qianqian?"
"Fourth sister, Qiu Qianqian is your sister-in-law..."
"Sister-in-law..."
Pei Yunxi chewed repeatedly, her expression changing.
"She's my woman! So Fourth Sister, please don't go too far during the competition this afternoon, lest our own people hurt each other!"
"..."
Pei Yunxi's breathing became rapid. Without saying a word, she turned around and looked around.
"What is Fourth Sister looking for?"
Where is my sword?
"..."
Jing Zhe was startled and immediately noticed the sharp longsword on the stool beside the bed. Just then, Pei Yunxi, gritting her teeth, also saw it—
In the nick of time, before Pei Yunxi could react, Jing Zhe stepped forward, not removing his sword, but instead steeling his heart and tightly embracing Pei Yunxi…
"Let go of me!"
Pei Yunxi was furious!
It's one thing that this guy doesn't come to see her on ordinary days—as far as she knows, he's been to Qingyun Sect several times, but only to Kunlun Mirror twice, and one of those times he didn't even know her identity. After they recognized each other, he only came once!
Even if you like Third Sister Qingqiu, you shouldn't treat her so obviously differently, right?
This time they came on their own initiative, but what was the result?
Telling yourself that Qingqiu is his woman and Qiu Qianqian is his woman—is this just a deliberate attempt to annoy you?
So Pei Yunxi went berserk.
Jing Zhe isn't stupid; how could he dare let her go at this moment?
Instead of letting go, he hugged her even tighter. And because they were pressed so tightly together, every time Pei Yunxi struggled, her voluptuous figure would be squeezed hard against him. The intimate feeling was something she had never experienced before.
Jing Zhe couldn't help but shudder, reminding himself to be careful...
Pei Yunxi tried several times, but still couldn't break free.
In terms of gender, she is a woman and Jing Zhe is a man, so she is clearly inferior in a physical contest.
As for her internal energy cultivation level, she is now a level weaker than Jing Zhe, so after struggling several times, apart from her breathing becoming heavy, it seems that there is no other effect.
Oh, if feeling hot or experiencing some other unusual sensation counts...
"Let me go!"
"Then Fourth Sister promises to listen to me quietly and not get angry!"
"Okay! I promise you!"
Pei Yunxi gritted her teeth and said, "Then can you let me go now?"
"..."
Seeing Pei Yunxi's expression, Jing Zhe felt that letting go of her wasn't a wise choice, but he had already said it, and it would be a real slap in the face if he didn't let go...
After hesitating for a moment, I finally decided to be a man of my word.
"I've let go, Fourth Sister, you absolutely must keep your word, you absolutely can't—hey hey hey—"
The moment Jing Zhe released Pei Yunxi, Pei Yunxi lunged at the long sword, startling Jing Zhe so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.
This is where the advantages of light-footed skill become apparent.
He caught up with her in one step, wrapped his arms around Pei Yunxi from behind, and pulled her back to sit on the bed...
"Fourth Sister, I kept my word and let you go, why don't you keep your word?"
"Because I'm a woman, and your sister at that, if I don't keep my word, do you have a problem with that?"
Yes, but I dare not say.
Jing Zhe silently repeated the words to himself, but tightened his grip, afraid that Pei Yunxi would run away again.
The two were now in a somewhat ambiguous position, as Pei Yunxi was sitting on Jing Zhe's lap and struggling to break free from his grasp...
"Fourth Sister, don't move!"
"..."

(I worked the night shift last night and was busy all morning today. I didn't wake up until 5:30, and I was still groggy when I opened my eyes... When I checked my phone, I was even more confused to see that many chapters had been blocked. I'm going to work hard to revise them tonight. As for the external translation, I'll just have to wait. If the blocked chapters aren't fixed, it will affect the reading experience of other legitimate readers. I hope everyone can understand.)
Well, I sent my wife and child back to her parents' house at noon. I'll have time for the next two days, and I can take the bus and resume my regular updates...
Well... that's all for today...
