"It was when I was facing those black bees that I accidentally let them slip through my defenses."
“A black bee crawled in through my sleeve, and then…”
Chi Yuan pointed to a piece of flesh on his back and muttered to himself.
"It's nothing, just a minor issue, nothing serious."
Shen Yulou was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and sat down next to Chi Yuan.
The curve of her lips was almost impossible to suppress.
Why aren't you looking at me? Are you embarrassed?
"I'm afraid you'll think I'm useless."
Chi Yuan lowered his head even further, and his ears turned red.
Hehehe, red ears~
Shen Yulou was secretly overjoyed.
But he still maintained that aloof and detached demeanor, as if everything was insignificant to him.
Everyone makes mistakes sometimes.
"A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit."
"After this experience, I believe you will be more cautious and face this competition as a better version of yourself."
He gave Chi Yuan a passionate speech, and then the fox's tail couldn't wait to show itself.
"So, do you need me to apply the medicine for you?"
He gently stroked Chi Yuan's back, seemingly caressing his injured area.
The warmth of her skin seemed to reach Shen Yulou's fingertips even through the thick clothing.
"Hmm? Do you want to or not? Say something."
Is the distance between the two of them now really that of a proper master and disciple?
What kind of master speaks right up to his apprentice's ear?
He was holding the person's shoulders and touching their back with both hands.
"Master? Did you do this on purpose last night?"
Just as Shen Yulou was enjoying teasing him, Chi Yuan suddenly looked up and grabbed his hand.
Don't be fooled by the red ears; the face is serious.
Facing Chi Yuan's calm and composed eyes, Shen Yulou felt as if he had suddenly discovered another blind spot.
This person can control the color of their ears?
That's amazing.
Moreover, even under these circumstances, Chi Yuan still had room in his mind to think about these issues.
Chi Yuan in this dimension is indeed different.
Shen Meiren never doubted her own charm, so it can only be blamed on Chi Yuan being too clever in this dimension.
Chi Yuan from other dimensions: What are you doing, pretending to be some kind of fragment in front of my beautiful Shen? You're just showing off!
Only someone who doesn't love enough would overthink things. Yes, stop reading, that's you!
They're going to file a joint appeal!
Chi Yuan inexplicably felt a chill attacking his body. Was it emanating from his master?
Seeing Shen Yulou's dazed eyes, Chi Yuan assumed he was feeling guilty after being discovered.
"Master, I have only one question for you: did you take me as your disciple because of my good looks, or because of my talent?"
"Is this how you trick me into revealing information?"
Shen Yulou snapped out of her daze and reached out her finger to hook his hair.
"Forget it, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. Whatever I say is wrong anyway."
He sat down and started talking to himself, his back to Chi Yuan.
While he didn't fully grasp the essence of "Dream of the Red Chamber," Shen Yulou did manage to imitate Lin Daiyu's sharp wit and charm in her sharp retorts.
"That's not what I meant. I just wanted to know what Master was thinking."
"If you choose to take me as your disciple because of your beauty, although it is inappropriate, it still makes me happy."
"If it's just for talent, then I feel sorry for Master's inner struggle. So Master, what is your reason?"
Shen Yulou couldn't contain his joy and satisfaction at that moment.
I initially thought that whatever I said would be wrong, but with Chi Yuan's words, everything he said seemed to be right.
Still so glib and smooth-talking.
He turned around and brought his face close to it.
Not for beauty, not for talent, but only for the love I have for you in my heart.
Shen Yulou grabbed Chi Yuan's hand and pulled it to her chest.
These words made Chi Yuan's heart tremble.
But he still rationally suppressed the turmoil in his heart.
"I've never met my master, so how could I have feelings for him?"
"Love at first sight, destiny, I can't live without you, my love will never change."
