After parting in the secret realm, Ji Yu traveled day and night to rush back to the academy, arriving two days earlier than Yaoyao.
So when Ji Yu returned to the place of seclusion and pretended to practice, Yaoyao came to him.
"Yaoyao, why are you here?" Ji Yu raised his head and looked at her with clear and bright eyes.
Shu Yaoyao looked at Ji Yu's tired appearance and asked, "Have you been in seclusion here all this time?"
Ji Yu nodded obediently and said, "Yes! It's so tiring to practice in seclusion."
Yaoyao rubbed Ji Yu's head, but couldn't help but recall the appearance of the eighteen-year-old boy in the illusion.
"Our Ah-yu is really handsome."
Ji Yu couldn't help but rub the place where Yaoyao had pinched her, and then muttered softly: "If you pinch me a few more times, my face will get fatter and it won't look good."
"Practice well. I will go into seclusion again after I come back this time. I will try to come out before the New Year, and then we will go home together."
Ji Yu scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "My master and I are going back to Liangzhou to celebrate the New Year this year. I'm afraid I won't have the chance to go back with you."
"Is that so..." Yaoyao's tone was filled with undisguised disappointment.
"Yaoyao, I will miss you." Ji Yu hugged Yaoyao's legs, and the little kid spoke like an adult.
"Yeah, I will miss you too." Yaoyao also imitated him and coaxed the child.
Ji Yu pulled Yaoyao's sleeve and motioned her to squat down.
Then when Yaoyao squatted down, Ji Yu quickly kissed her on the cheek.
"Yaoyao, when I grow up, I will marry you." Ji Yu said in a loud voice.
Shu Yaoyao poked his little head, then said nonchalantly: "I'm your sister, why should I marry you?"
Shu Yaoyao didn't take the child's words to heart at all and always thought he was joking.
"You are not my sister. My last name is Ji and yours is Shu. We are not siblings. You are my wife and I am your adopted husband." Ji Yu's senior sisters always teased Ji Yu, saying that he was a adopted husband brought back by the Shu family.
When they were in the secret realm, Yaoyao seemed to be very concerned about the age difference between the Taoist companions, so Ji Yu's words were also to test the waters in advance.
I hope Yaoyao doesn't mind the age gap too much. If he brings it up a few more times, maybe Yaoyao will let down her guard.
Shu Yaoyao was completely confused by what he said. What child-raising husband, what wife, who taught the child bad things.
"Who taught you to say that? You are not my child husband. We are siblings." Shu Yaoyao corrected.
"But I don't want to be Yaoyao's younger brother!" There was not a trace of lies in the boy's clear eyes.
Yaoyao patted his head and said firmly: "You are my younger brother."
But in her mind it was always like a fantasy, in which she hooked her arms around the boy's neck and called him Brother Xiao Ji.
Thinking of this, Shu Yaoyao inevitably looked at Ji Yu with a little more shyness in her eyes.
In the end, Shu Yaoyao left Ji Yu's yard almost as if she was fleeing in panic.
"Yaoyao, fly slower." Following Ji Yu's shout, the figure in the sky staggered a bit.
…………
As the year draws to a close.
As promised, Ji Yu followed Liang Churou to the Liang family.
When they arrived at the Liang family that night, all the elders gathered together in the courtyard, respectfully waiting for Liang Churou to come home.
"Meet your grandfathers." Liang Churou pointed at several elders and instructed Ji Yu.
Ji Yu was also unambiguous and immediately bowed respectfully: "Hello, grandfathers."
The elder flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "I am from the Ji family, I cannot accept this courtesy."
Ji Yu was bewildered and looked at his master with some doubt in his eyes.
Liang Churou didn't indulge the old men and stood directly in front of Ji Yu: "Uncle, I call you uncle to give you face. You should know who is the patriarch now. Don't take your anger out on the child."
"Even though our Xiaoyu has half Ji family blood in her body, the other half belongs to Ling'er after all. It doesn't matter whether her last name is Ji or Liang. What matters is that I am the child's mother, and the person sitting in the position of clan leader is the child's uncle."
After Liang Churou finished speaking, the attitudes of the elders softened a lot.
Then Ji Yu followed Liang Churou to meet his uncle whom he had never met before.
The man sitting high up in the hall was dressed in a black robe with gold thread, and he looked to be less than thirty years old.
"Hello, uncle." Ji Yu spoke in a low voice, fearing that he would be as angry as the old man just now.
Liang Chufeng waved at Ji Yu with a smile: "Come here, Xiao Yu."
Ji Yu obediently walked to his side. Liang Chufeng rubbed Ji Yu's head and praised her, "You really look like your sister."
"Just stay in the Liang family! I was raised by my sisters, so I should raise their children." Ji Yu always felt that Liang Chufeng had other meanings when he mentioned staying in the Liang family.
Sure enough, Ji Yu’s premonition was correct. When Liang Churou was about to return to college, she left him at the Liang family.
Ji Yu tugged at his master's sleeve tightly and said pitifully, "Master, take me back with you!"
Liang Churou pulled his hand away and explained: "Stay in the Liang family and learn all the unique skills of the Liang family, and I will naturally take you back."
All the unique skills!! These five words were like a thunderclap, which made Ji Yu feel shocked.
The Liang family is the leader of the five major cultivation families! There is more than one building for the collection of books. How long will it take him to learn all the unique skills?
"Master, are you sure you are not joking?" Ji Yu gave a very ugly smile.
"Yeah." Liang Churou wanted to keep him. Learning martial arts was one purpose, and another purpose was to let Ji Yu get along well with the Liang family.
After developing a deep relationship, even if Ji's family comes looking for him, Ji Yu will not leave with them.
In other words, if the Liang family and the Ji family fought one day, Ji Yu would be able to consider their past friendship and not stand against the Liang family.
"Get along well with Feng'er. He is the closest to your mother and will naturally not treat you unfairly." Liang Churou left after saying this.
Ji Yu cried like a baby on the spot, and no one could say a word about how affectionate and loyal Ji Yu was.
In fact, Ji Yu just felt that he could not go back. Yaoyao was such a gullible girl, and he was afraid that his wife would be deceived.
That night Ji Yu sat in Liang Chufeng's room.
"Uncle, how did my mother and father know each other? Why do you all say that my father is a bad person?" Ji Yu asked curiously.
Ji Yu also asked Liang Churou this question, but Liang Churou kept her mouth shut and refused to reveal a word.
In fact, Liang Churou was just afraid that Ji Yu would run away after telling him his father's identity.
In fact, these were all Liang Churou's excessive worries. Compared with blood ties, Ji Yu cared more about moral principles.
If Ji's father was really a bad person, Ji Yu would not sympathize with him.
