Wu Chang Jie

Xie Bi An panicked. He pushed Fan Wu She away from him and said seriously, "This is a private matter, how can I talk about it with outsiders?"

Fan Wu She raised his eyebrows, "Is this a private matter between brothers? Didn't you say that you'd treat me as your own younger blood brother?"

"You ..." Xie Bi An rose to his feet, "The tea is getting cold, I'm going to read a book."

But Fan Wu She tugged Xie Bi An's wrist, and he also followed and stood up, "Senior brother."

"What are you doing?" Xie Bi An turned around and realized that Fan Wu She was really almost as tall as himself, at this age, had he really grown up so fast?

"Brother, I've read all those books you gave me, but there are still things I don't understand, can we talk about them?"

Xie Bi An's eyes were rounded like deer eyes. He was embarrassed and annoyed. This kind of thing was not understood by anyone, instead it was secretly understood. Would he ask Zhong Kui when he did not understand? Why is this kid not ashamed at all? He lowered his voice sheepishly, "You can just look at it yourself, why ask me?"

"If you want me to read it, don't you want me to understand it? Since senior brother knows, why can't you tell me directly?" Xie Bi An's shy look tickled Fan Wu She's heart. He grabbed that slim but strong wrist without letting go, his thumb even rubbing the slightly raised pulse intentionally or otherwise. When thinking of this hand, which could give him the gentlest of strokes, and also exert the Zongxuan Sword Technique so exquisitely and invincible, it made his heart flutter.

"I don't really understand it either, you will, you will know it by heart."

"Is that so ..." Fan Wu She rolled his eyes and added, "I know half of it, but I do know that I did something disrespectful to senior brother that night."

Xie Bi An's face turned red almost instantly, and he shook Fan Wu She's hand away with force, "It's not true, you're overthinking it. You're just confused from sleeping."

"But I remember that I was erect and senior brother felt it too. Does senior brother blame me?"

Xie Bi An was about to explode. He panicked, "Don't talk nonsense, no one blames you, and you should stop asking such nonsense questions. Cut out these distracting thoughts and cultivate properly!" He abandoned Fan Wu She behind and hurried away.

Fan Wu She stared at the handsome back of Xie Bi An's slender waist and long legs. The tip of his tongue slowly licking over his dry lips, a deep and undisguised desire in his eyes. Sooner or later, he would be able to hold this person whenever and wherever he wanted, just like he had in his previous life.

For the whole day, Xie Bi An kept avoiding Fan Wu She. He had never known that raising a younger brother would be so troublesome. He thought that by keeping his younger brother well-fed and warm, supervising his martial training and protecting him outside. He had fulfilled his duty as an elder brother, but he had never expected that he would have to face all the embarrassing problems of a young boy growing up.

Moreover, he didn't know if he's being oversensitive, but from time to time he can feel Fan Wu She staring at him with all sorts of meaningful eyes, sometimes even making his heart shiver. It was as if there was some other karma between the two of them which he didn't know.

However, there was no way he could keep avoiding Fan Wu She. They have to practice their swords together at night.

When they met again, Fan Wu She looked normal, but Xie Bi An looked uncomfortable and was a bit distracted during the fight.
