"Third junior brother, you should apologize to fifth junior sister right now." Feng Heyun pulled Lu Shiqing. "You were so worried when fifth junior sister was in trouble, and you even scolded the little junior sister."
"Why haven't you said a word to your fifth junior sister now that you've seen her?"
A moment of embarrassment flashed across Bai Mumu's face; she wished she could sew Feng Heyun's mouth shut.
Shen Sanruo raised her eyes and looked at Lu Shiqing with great interest.
She had always thought that Lu Shiqing loathed her and wished her dead.
After all, he could use the Seven Emotions Gu on her twice, so he must hate her to the extreme, right?
But judging from his reaction after thinking she was dead, it seems that he didn't simply dislike her.
At least he still cares about her.
He once said that he would never have any feelings for someone as unconventional as her, nor care about her at all, so as not to let her develop feelings for him that she shouldn't have.
To prove his indifference towards her, he even did many things that hurt her.
But now he has slapped himself in the face.
How can a person be so despicable?
Ha, how ridiculous.
When she no longer felt any affection for them, watching their strange and eccentric behavior became quite amusing.
Shen Sangruo, like a superior without joy or sorrow, coldly watched their every word and action, which were like ants.
When Lu Shiqing met her bright, probing gaze, he surprisingly looked away.
He seemed embarrassed by being seen through, and his aura was no longer as strong as when he faced Shen Sangruo.
"Third junior brother, say something!"
Feng Heyun looked anxious, fearing that he would be implicated by Lu Shiqing.
“Shi Qing.” Wen Xuan also looked at Lu Shi Qing.
Lu Shiqing remained silent for a moment, then spoke with the same attitude: "Why should I apologize to her? I have done nothing to wrong her."
The Seven Emotions Gu was used to help Shen Sangruo control her emotions; he did nothing wrong.
“She’s the one who should apologize,” he retorted, turning his attention directly to Shen Sangruo.
"You're deliberately faking your death to get our attention."
"Chen Sangruo, you really have some impressive skills, willing to risk your own life to set this up."
"Someone as scheming as you is not worthy of being our junior sister, and you are not even a fraction as good as our junior sister."
Lu Shiqing leaned close to Bai Mumu, looking extremely disgusted with Shen Sangruo and protective and concerned for Bai Mumu.
If the system hadn't given any indication of increased favorability, Bai Mumu would have thought that Lu Shiqing had truly changed his attitude towards her.
Bai Mumu: ? ? ?
Was she some kind of prop in their game?
But she could only manage a soft smile.
Lu Shiqing's utterly illogical words left Feng Heyun and Wen Xuan completely stunned.
How could Shen Sangri be faking her death on purpose?
Such a far-fetched reason is completely illogical and utterly sophistry.
He targeted Shen Sangruo specifically.
The two completely different attitudes made them suspect that Lu Shiqing might be possessed by an evil spirit.
Lu Shiqing himself knew how outrageous his words were, but he could only do so to maintain his usual image.
He said this, but in reality, he was extremely conflicted.
It wasn't just because of what he had said before that made him feel embarrassed and change his attitude towards Shen Sangruo.
There was also a lingering concern, a concern that was deeply ingrained in his heart.
What if he gets better to Shen Sangri and they repeat the same mistakes?
He still felt he shouldn't be too nice to Shen Sangruo, and shouldn't get too close to her.
His attitude towards Shen Sangruo, who ruined the pure affection between them, should be one of disgust.
But after this incident, which may have caused him some hesitation, he began to waver.
People always learn to regret things only after they've lost them.
It also made him think about whether he should try to improve his relationship with Shen Sangruo.
Moreover, Shen Sanruo's attitude towards them was too strange, and no matter how much prejudice he had against her, he couldn't ignore it.
His eyes flickered, and an idea came to him.
He'll know whether it's an act or not once he tries it.
But until the results are in, he still won't give Shen Sangruo a friendly look.
"What are you talking about, Third Junior Brother?" Feng Heyun shouted.
"Shi Qing, your prejudice against Xiao Ruo is too great." Wen Xuan shook his head in disappointment.
They knew how stubborn Lu Shiqing was.
Judging from his demeanor, he clearly wasn't going to apologize.
Feng Heyun and Wen Xuan hesitated, looking very anxious.
"You can continue. I have no intention of arguing with you about right and wrong, truth and falsehood. Whatever Third Senior Brother thinks is what it is," Chen Sangruo waved her hand.
Aren't there enough charges being leveled against her already?
"The eldest and second senior brothers don't need to say anything."
The time for her to apologize has long passed.
It's not that their apology will erase all the grudges between them.
Does she have to forgive me just because I apologized?
"Xiao Ruo, aren't you coming back to the sect with us?" Wen Xuan quickly stopped her when he saw her about to leave.
“We came here specifically to find you, so you have to come back with us,” Feng Heyun said. “Otherwise, how will we explain to Sect Master Shen and our master?”
"When did I say I wanted to return to the sect?" Shen Sangruo said coldly. "Why would the sect leader and master blame me for leaving the sect to train?"
With Shen Sangruo currently enjoying great momentum, this is a good time for her to continue training and improving her cultivation.
"Then we'll go with you..."
Wen Xuan's voice was immediately interrupted by her. She said impatiently, "I didn't know that my senior brothers had such leisure time. What is the reason for the disciples under Lingxiao Zhenren not to cultivate diligently, but to chase after people all day long?"
"Don't you have things to do yourself?"
"Besides, if you're injured, you should immediately return to the sect to recuperate; staying behind will only be a hindrance. Surely my senior brothers don't need me to tell them this?"
Shen Sangruo's disdain was undisguised.
Wen Xuan felt utterly ashamed by her words.
It turns out that being rejected and pushed away by someone you care about is this painful.
They seemed to realize how wrong they had been to Shen Sangruo in the past.
Bai Mumu's gaze shifted, and she collapsed weakly, unable to grasp Wen Xuan's robes. "Second Senior Brother, I feel so bad."
She was determined to make them all return to their sect and stay away from Shen Sangruo!
This group of people would act crazy whenever they were in front of Shen Sangruo.
Bai Mumu finally understood that only by staying away from Shen Sangruo could she successfully complete her mission.
She was on the wrong track from the start; completing the mission was the most important thing, and she shouldn't have wasted too much energy on Shen Sangruo.
Once she completes her mission and attains immortality, even a hundred Shen Sangruos wouldn't be able to be controlled by her.
But she has already etched this grudge into her heart!
"Your most beloved junior sister looks like she's about to die, aren't you going to take her back to the sect?" Shen Sanruo said with a smile, looking like she was watching a show.
After hesitating for a long time, Wen Xuan said, "Xiao Ruo, we'll come back to you after we've healed."
Chen Sangruo breathed a sigh of relief, finally managing to shake off those people.
