The two started arguing again. I felt a splitting headache and secretly groaned inwardly. Then I shouted, "Help me go and rest first, okay?"
My voice became sharp due to anxiety. After hearing what I said, my second brother and Su Qiyuan were both slightly stunned, and a hint of hesitation appeared on their faces.
The second brother was the first to react. He nodded slightly, still looking at Su Qiyuan with caution in his eyes, and said, "Okay, little sister, let's find a place for you to rest first."
After saying that, he carefully supported me and prepared to take me away.
Su Qiyuan didn't move, his eyes were fixed on me, as if he was thinking about something.
After a moment, he said, "I'm going with you. I'm worried."
When the second brother heard this, his eyes widened with anger and he shouted, "Why are you so persistent? I will take care of my younger sister, and there is no need for you to interfere!"
The two of them started to get on edge again. I sighed helplessly, my irritation growing stronger. "Could you please stop arguing?"
At this time, my second brother and Su Qiyuan felt a little embarrassed when they heard what I said and stopped talking.
Finally, at my insistence, my second brother and Su Qiyuan, although reluctant, still helped me go back to rest.
Along the way, both of them had tense faces, neither looked at the other, only occasionally glancing at each other out of the corner of their eyes, and the atmosphere was very awkward.
When I arrived at my place, I sat down on the chair tiredly and rubbed my temples.
The second brother and Su Qiyuan stood aside, still looking at each other, as if they were about to quarrel again in the next second.
I looked at them, feeling helpless. "You two should go out first. I want to be alone for a while."
The second brother said with some concern: "Little sister, this..."
I said, "Brother, I'm fine. You guys can go out first and let me rest for a while."
The second brother hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, turned and walked out.
Su Qiyuan didn't move. He looked at me quietly, his eyes full of concern and confusion: "Are you really okay?"
I nodded slightly: "I'm really fine, you can go out first."
Su Qiyuan looked at me deeply, as if he wanted to say something, but finally turned and left the room.
The room finally quieted down. I leaned back in my chair, closed my eyes, and thought about everything that happened today. My heart was still beating wildly.
After Su Qiyuan walked out with steady steps, he sternly ordered the disciples guarding the door to keep a close eye on the place and not to slack off in the slightest.
After hearing his unquestionable words, the second brother was immediately furious, his cheeks flushed red, and he was about to rush forward to argue with him, loudly demanding: "Why are you looking at us? What's the logic behind this!"
Su Qiyuan just glanced at his second brother lightly, with a hint of indifference in his eyes, and did not say anything else. He turned around, his clothes fluttering, and disappeared from his second brother's sight.
Soon, the competition in the square was over.
Baili Yanran, Senior Shangguan, and the others were filled with anxiety and hurried over. Baili Yanran asked anxiously, "Sister Ling'er, how are you?"
The second brother replied, "Maybe I was frightened just now. That Holy Son of Lingxu Palace is really too much!"
Then, Baili Yanran frowned slightly, pointed a slender finger at the disciples in the courtyard who were staring at her eagerly, and said, "What...what on earth is going on?"
The second brother snorted coldly and said angrily, "It was the order of the Holy Son of Lingxu Palace. He insisted on watching us. I don't know what his plan is!"
Then, the second brother said with a face full of confusion and anger: "You said we don't know him, why would he be like this when he saw my little sister? It's so inexplicable!"
Baili Yanran held her chin with her hand, thought for a moment, and then said slowly: "It seems that the Holy Son knows Sister Ling'er, otherwise he would not act like this."
By this time, Puyang Yu's injuries had healed considerably, but his face still held a lingering anger. "Sister Ling'er, it's obvious you don't know him. He's being so persistent and nagging me. It's truly disrespectful."
At this time, the second brother stepped forward and said to Baili Yanran with concern: "Sister Yanran, we can't stay here for long. We plan to go to Grandpa's place."
Now that things here have come to an end, I would be worried if I let you return to the sect alone.
Moreover, judging from the situation today, the Holy Son of Lingxu Palace will probably not let us go easily, and many troubles may ensue.
So, I plan to leave immediately after my younger sister gets better.
After hearing what the second brother said, everyone nodded in response, expressing their agreement with this arrangement.
Su Qiyuan returned to his residence looking a little tired. As soon as he stepped into the room, Yun Zhongzi hurried over.
Yun Zhongzi quickly walked up to Su Qiyuan, bowed, and said respectfully, "Daoist Ancestor, today in the square..."
Before he finished speaking, Su Qiyuan raised his hand to signal him to stop and said softly, "It's just what you think."
When Yun Zhongzi heard Daozu's words, he was stunned at first, and then a bright smile instantly broke out on his face.
The face that was originally full of wrinkles was now wrinkled with laughter, and he said excitedly: "Congratulations, Daozu, I've finally waited for it!" After that, Yun Zhongzi tactfully withdrew.
After Yun Zhongzi left, Su Qiyuan paced slowly in the room alone, and every step seemed to step on his uneasy heart.
His brows furrowed tightly as he thought to himself, "Given my junior sister's personality, she's always been timid and stubborn. If I were to rashly reveal the truth today, she definitely wouldn't believe it."
Based on my understanding of her, she would definitely think that I was deceiving her, and might even develop a grudge against me and avoid me even more from now on, unwilling to have any contact with me again.
I waited for so many years and finally found her trace.
But now... am I really going to trap her by my side again, not allowing her to contact anyone like a caged bird?
Her lively eyes and sweet smile involuntarily emerged in his mind. They were his only comfort in the long years.
"But if I don't do this, if she disappears from my sight again, how will I bear the pain of loss?"
When Su Qiyuan thought of this, his heart felt like it was being pricked by thousands of needles, causing him severe pain.
But if I do this, she will definitely hate me, and how can I bear to see her unhappy?
Su Qiyuan's eyes revealed deep helplessness and intense anxiety.
He paced back and forth in the room, his steps becoming increasingly hurried, his mind constantly running through various possibilities.
Trying to come up with a plan that would allow my junior sister to accept me without any reservations.
