Several people came to a secluded room in a teahouse on the street.

After taking a look at the snacks on the table, Chu Yaoyao didn't move. She raised her eyes and looked at the master and disciple opposite her.

"What do you want from me?"

"Young senior..."

Chu Yaoyao quickly raised her hand to interrupt him.

"I've been wanting to say this for a long time. Don't call me that. It feels weird."

Taoist Priest Zhiben nodded in agreement.

"May I ask, young noble, what is your relationship with the master?"

Hearing him ask this, Chu Yaoyao suddenly remembered his reaction when he saw the wooden sword that day, and his uncle also said that he had a close relationship with Taoist Xuan Ze...

"Your master...could it be Taoist Xuan Ze?"

Taoist Master Zhiben raised his lips in a wry smile.

"I am ashamed to say that I am indeed overreaching to be called Grandmaster."

"I am just Master Zilin's unofficial disciple."

"Zi Lin?!"

Looking at his white hair mixed with gray, the image of the young Taoist priest who was estimated to be in his twenties came to my mind again.

Chu Yaoyao couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

It was really difficult for her to assign a master-disciple relationship to these two people.

"I originally wanted to take Qingyi with me on this trip to become his disciple, but I didn't expect that my master had already left Xiyue."

Speaking of this, Taoist Priest Zhiben shook his head and sighed with regret.

"Master, I've already said that I only want to stay by your side."

Qing Yi, who was sitting nearby, looked at him helplessly.

Taoist Priest Zhiben glared at him with disappointment.

"I have nothing more to teach you. If you continue to stay here, won't that waste your talent?!"

In response to this, Chu Yaoyao pursed her lips and didn't want to express any opinion.

[People treat you as their master, but you only want to be their nephew. This is outrageous! ]

Although she thought so in her heart, there was no expression on her face.

Well, I don't understand, but I respect it.

"Later, I vaguely calculated that the master had gone to the capital. I followed him along the road, but when he was near Yangcheng, I could no longer predict anything."

After hearing this, not only Chu Yaoyao, but even A Shi looked at him in disbelief.

[Yang Cheng? You really have some skills! ]

Chu Yaoyao thought for a moment and raised her hand, "That..."

[Is there a possibility that they are deliberately avoiding you? ]

"What advice do you have, young nobleman?"

Taoist Priest Zhiben looked very serious, so serious that she began to doubt what wise words he was saying.

How could she have the nerve to express her doubts now?

Chu Yaoyao's delicate little face wrinkled into a ball as she spoke while thinking.

"Don't you Taoists all care about chance, the right time, the right place, and the right people?"

"Perhaps, Taoist Xuan Ze feels that the time is not right yet?"

Upon hearing this, Zhiben's face instantly turned serious. He lowered his eyes and thought for a long time, and then stared at her with burning eyes.

"My dear young master, your reminder is very correct. It turns out that I was thinking in the wrong way."

After expressing their gratitude again, the master and disciple prepared to leave.

Chu Yaoyao handed the small wooden sword to them.

"This is for you. I have no use for it anyway."

After taking it with both hands, Taoist Priest Zhiben bowed again and thanked him solemnly.

"Thank you for the gift, my dear."

After watching the two walk away, Ah Shi squatted beside her and whispered, "Princess, why did you give them the wooden sword?"

Chu Yaoyao picked up a piece of pea yellow and handed it to Su Yingying. While eating, she replied nonchalantly.

"It's useless to keep it in my hands anyway."

"But... um?"

Ah Shi wanted to say something, but Yaoyao stuffed a piece of dessert into his mouth, blocking his mouth.

"Okay, this snack is very good, try it."

Ah Shi had no choice but to take a bite in frustration, then reached out to catch it himself.

The dim sum here tastes pretty good. Chu Yaoyao asked Ah Shi to pack up a few more and take them back for her second brother and uncle to try.

Ah Shi didn't dare to leave her side again. After opening the door, he shouted downstairs.

The waiter downstairs heard the voice and hurried over, "Sir, what do you want?"

Ah Shi picked out a few more snacks and asked him to pack them together.

After she gave the instructions, she was about to close the door when her vision blurred and something slipped in from beside her legs.

"who?!"

Her body tensed up and she subconsciously drew her sword.

"Little sister!"

Seeing the familiar figure, Ah Shi loosened his hand slightly.

"Puff, cough, cough, cough..."

Chu Yaoyao, who was eating with gusto, was frightened by the sound and choked. She coughed bitterly and her face turned red.

"Princess!"

Su Yingying quickly threw the snacks in her hand onto the table and hurriedly poured a cup of tea to her mouth.

Ah Shi patted her back to help her calm down.

Chu Yaoyao held the cup and took two big gulps before she came to her senses.

"Little sister, I'm sorry, are you okay?"

Jin Xiangan stood beside her apologetically.

"It's all my fault."

"It's all your fault!"

Su Yingying stood up and looked at him unfriendly.

"If you hadn't suddenly shouted, how could Yaoyao have been choked?!"

Jin Xiangan pursed his lips, his big watery eyes filled with apology.

"sorry."

Chu Yaoyao took Su Yingying's hand, motioned her to sit down, then blinked her eyes, which were slightly moist with tears, and looked at Jin Xiangan.

"you……"

"Xiao An, you're running around again!"

Jin Xiangkang's serious and mature voice came.

"You guys, why are you here?"

Speaking of this, Jin Xiangan looked at her aggrievedly.

"Little sister, does it take so many days to do it another day?"

"Next time, let's not meet another day, okay?"

Chu Yaoyao nodded, "Some other day, I guess we won't meet again."

[I will be returning to the capital soon. I probably won’t see you again.]

"Little sister, the snacks you gave me last time were snatched away by my uncle and brother!"

As he said this, Xiang An glared at Xiang Ping fiercely.

Jin Xiangkang wiped his nose slightly embarrassedly.

"What are you doing?! Let go!"

Su Yingying stood up with her eyes wide open, walked between the two of them, pulled down Jin Xiangan's hand that was on Yaoyao's arm, and then stood in the middle, separating the two of them.

"Just talk, don't make any moves!"

Jin Xiangan pursed his lips and gave her an annoyed look.

This sister is so annoying! He had no choice but to run to the other side and sit in Su Yingying's original seat, looking at Yaoyao with an expression of seeking credit.

"Little sister, I kept the toy you gave me last time very well."

Hearing this, Su Yingying felt a little jealous.

She looked at Xiang An with dissatisfaction, "Just talk, why are you standing so close to me?!"

Then, she smiled and whispered to Yaoyao, "Princess, shall we continue shopping?"

"I'm going too!"

Of course Su Yingying didn't want to, "Yaoyao and I are good friends, we won't take you with us when we go shopping!"

Jin Xiangan stiffened his neck, refusing to give in, and corrected her seriously.

"You're wrong, my little sister and I knew each other first, and we're best friends!"

Su Yingying folded her arms across her chest and glanced at him triumphantly.

"Yaoyao saved me. She is my savior. Of course we have the best relationship!"

"My little sister gave me a gift, so we are best friends!"

Jin Xiangan's face turned red and he shouted at the top of his voice.

"You're talking nonsense. My little sister and I are the best in the world!"
