Chapter 23 Expressing My Feelings: The person I like can't be wrong. ...
It felt as if someone was churning inside Shen Jiuxu's heart, forcefully digging out every hidden thought and exposing it to the light of day, leaving nothing to hide.
He wanted to forcefully take the person away and hide them in a private place, but Miss Yu taught him to pretend to be wronged and look at the person pitifully, preferably speaking in a coquettish tone.
“Young Master Shen, you are so handsome, you should make good use of your face. I believe your partner is definitely not as good-looking as you.”
"And which of you two is older?"
Shen Jiuxu didn't know when his friend had automatically become him. He didn't know Jiang Feiwan's age, so he had no way to compare them.
“He already has a Daoist partner, so he must be older than you who has nothing. So, when you talk to him, soften your voice and call him ‘brother’ or something.” Yu Xingchi was about to demonstrate for him on the spot, so that the guest wouldn’t feel that the money was not well spent.
"No, no, no, don't call me."
Shen Jiuxu immediately waved his hand, so Yu Xingchi could only teach him something else: "You need to learn to compare yourself to his Daoist partner unintentionally and show your advantages."
Shen Jiuxu suppressed the agitation in his heart. What should he do now?
Yu Xingchi looked confidently at her newly graduated student when she bumped into Lian Quesheng across from her. They realized from their eyes that they should be allies and began to look at the two outstanding-looking people with satisfaction.
Jiang Yu circled around Shen Jiuxu, "Young Master Shen, you seem to be having a lot of fun?"
He really didn't understand why Shen Jiuxu suddenly came here. He used to avoid places like this at all costs. Could it be that he has changed his personality after losing his memory?
"I was just... passing by."
After thinking for a long time, Shen Jiuxu realized that this was the only excuse he could come up with. Seeing that Jiang Yu did not answer, he knew that he did not believe him. "Just now, Li Ye and the others went to buy food and did not come back for a long time. I was worried about them, so I went out to look for them, which is why I passed by here."
"oh--"
"Lian Quesheng, the disciples of your Starry Sky Palace are really a handful. How can something you bought just disappear into thin air?" Jiang Yu said irritably, his expression remaining unchanged, making it impossible to tell whether he believed it or not.
"...We Star Palace don't care where our disciples go, and how can we find Spring Breeze Pavilion when we're looking for someone? It's really strange. When I see Li Ye and the others later, I'll definitely give them a good scolding."
Lian Quesheng, always eager for a good show, said, "I'll send them a message right away. It's been several hours already, I wonder where they've gone?"
Shen Jiuxu shifted slightly, and Jiang Yu noticed, giving a soft "humph." "No need to send word. Young Master Shen knows where they are. You can go find them. I'll head back now."
"Alright, you can go back now."
Lian Quesheng waved his hand, saying as he tried to pull Shen Jiuxu away. He held on for a while, his arm aching, but Shen Jiuxu remained motionless. Lian Quesheng blushed and rubbed his wrist. "Come on! What are you doing standing here?"
“I…” Shen Jiuxu hesitated for a long time.
Jiang Yu turned and left without a second thought, like a fleeting breeze under the eaves of a summer house, showing no mercy. If Shen Jiuxu had only glanced at him once, he would have vanished without a trace.
"I have something to tell you." Shen Jiuxu made up her mind, grabbed his arm directly, and said resolutely, "Jiang Feiwan, just for a moment, I have something very important to tell you."
“You can talk about it later. He said he has something to take care of, so just let him go.” Lian Quesheng chuckled from behind, until Shen Jiuxu ignored him completely, pulled Jiang Yu away on his sword, and disappeared in a short while.
Where are they?
"I'm the only one left? Is this funny?" Lian Que was furious and wanted to jump three feet high to pull the two of them down from the sky. In the end, she could only huddle together with Yu Xingchi. "Girl, what does he want with you?"
"You have to pay money to get information."
Yu Xingchi recognized him; just by looking at his foolish, rich face and his flamboyant clothes, he knew who he was.
"Here, here, here. Is that enough? If not, I'll go to the money exchange and get some more." Lian Quesheng always believed that problems that could be solved with money weren't really problems. "Can you tell me now?"
Can you tell me now?
Jiang Yu looked around and, seeing no one around, wondered where Shen Jiuxu had taken him. "What important thing does he have to say?"
"I really didn't do anything."
I gave her some silver.
After Shen Jiu finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. "No, I only gave her some silver."
"Besides money, what else do you want to give?" Jiang Yu retorted. He picked up a twig from the ground, but then heard light footsteps.
"I went to see her... for you." Shen Jiuxu turned her face to face Jiang Yu so that he could look at her directly. "I just wanted to ask her how I could make you like me?"
After he finished speaking, his heart was pounding so hard it was almost deafening. He was waiting for Jiang Yu's reply when Jiang Yu suddenly pulled him down to squat down. "Shh, someone's here."
"Elder, you truly live up to your reputation. You can even use such methods. That young man, Jiang Yu, is no match for you."
The speaker was a man who sounded to be in his twenties or thirties. “I can’t use this move. It would hurt the enemy a thousand but also hurt myself eight hundred. If Shen Wuke’s disciples are all gone, how can we still call ourselves a sect?”
"They're just disciples anyway. Once I become the sect leader, I can recruit some new ones who will be even more obedient, won't they?"
It was Lian Feng's voice. Could it be that he was the one who killed those disciples?
Jiang Yu thought of something and looked up. He saw a masked man in black standing with Lian Feng. He originally thought that Lian Feng only colluded with the people of Yunshui City, but he did not expect that there were people from other sects.
"Then I hope Elder Lian won't forget our deal. Our Lord is waiting."
“Of course, I will deliver Jiang Yu to you in three days.” Lian Feng smiled. “Please accept this gift, my lord.”
What are they going to do to themselves?
Jiang Yu was momentarily confused about who that master was. When he was arrogant and unruly before, he seemed to have offended some people, but it was just a verbal dispute and nothing serious happened.
If he truly had a grudge, he would settle it on the spot. Unlike these people, who only resort to underhanded tricks behind people's backs.
Shen Jiuxu nudged Jiang Feiwan, who was still in a daze, and said softly, "The person is gone."
"How can they be so shameless?" Jiang Yu wondered. "Can't they just say what they want on the spot? Why do they have to resort to such petty tricks? Young Master Jiang is such a good person, upright and highly cultivated, handsome and kind-hearted. I've never heard a bad word about him."
Shen Jiuxu: ...
If Lian Quesheng were here, he would probably be defeated by his shamelessness and collapse to the ground on the spot, shouting, "Jiang Feiwan, where's your face?"
Unfortunately, Shen Jiuxu knew nothing at the moment and could only go along with what his beloved said, "Young Master Jiang is such a good person, he can't be wrong."
"You've never seen him before?"
"I've seen you, that's enough. The person I like can't be wrong." There's absolutely nothing wrong with praising someone like that; that's how it's taught in storybooks and by Miss Yu.
Before Jiang Yu could react, Shen Jiuxu blushed deeply. He was too thin-skinned; he had already rehearsed those words hundreds of times in his mind before he could say them.
A cool hand touched his face, and Jiang Yu's soft laughter reached his ears, "Are you blushing?"
