Quick Wear: When a Delicate Beauty Becomes Cannon Fodder

Female Cultivator of the Hehuan Sect (18)

  Yun Mian watched Xie Chaoshi carry the person into his house, which was a place she was not allowed to enter.

  She bit the soft flesh inside her lip, and the salty smell spread in her mouth, but she seemed to feel no pain.

  The joy she had just felt when she saw her master coming back quickly faded from her eyes. The figure in white with his back to her raised his knees, and the feet exposed between the hem of his skirt swayed slightly with the movement.

  They were very close.

  Who is she?
  Today is the day for recruiting new disciples. Could the person Master brought back be his new disciple, her junior sister?
  From now on, will it be not just her and Master here?
  But why did he bring her back with him?

  Yunmian's thoughts were complicated and he couldn't do anything else, so he just stood quietly outside the palace.

  She couldn't wait to get things straight.

  Inside the palace.

  Xie Chaoshi put the person down on the bed.

  Ruan Ruan looked at him with tears in her eyes and her nose twitching.

  There were no outsiders around at the moment, so she finally couldn't help it and spoke in a trembling voice.

  "...It's all your fault. How can I face people in the future? They must have remembered it..."

  Big tears fell, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and they were slightly curled up by the water droplets, and her vision was blurred.

  There was a water stain on Xie Chaoshi's chest, his wide sleeves hung down at his wrists, and his big hands with distinct joints were close to her cheek.

  The cold fingertips touched her skin directly, tapped it lightly, and then wiped across the water marks on her face.

  "It's my fault. Don't worry. They won't dare say anything."

  The tone was cold, but soothing.

  Ruan Ruan looked up at him, with some mist still in her eyes.

  "Really?"

  "If anyone dares to gossip about me, I will stop him from speaking again."

  There was no trace of murderous intent in him, but no one could doubt what he said.

  Ruan Ruan calmed down, but the redness and swelling around her eyes did not go away in a short time, and there was also a red spot on the tip of her nose.

  After thinking about it, she apologized proactively, a little quietly.

  "In fact, I didn't stand firmly. You can't be blamed for everything... Brother Chao Shi, I shouldn't have lost my temper with you. I'm sorry. Can you forgive me?"  

  "I'm not mad at you."

  After a moment of silence, Ruan Ruan tugged at his sleeve.

  "Just now you said you wanted to take me as your apprentice, so do I have to call you Master from now on?"

  "Master?"

  After washing, her eyes became clear and sparkling as she looked at him, as if he was the only one in her eyes.

  Xie Chaoshi nodded softly.

  "Master, can you help me? My eyes hurt so much..."

  His magic can heal wounds, so red and swollen eyes are no problem either.

  The bony palm covered her eyelids with a cool feeling, and soon the soreness disappeared.

  At the same time, Yunmian was waiting anxiously outside the palace.

  He had clearly already adapted to the cold here, but at this moment he felt as if he was immersed in ice water, with cold hands and feet and cold sweat coming out of his back.

  Even the joints between my bones felt cold.

  When the door reopened, she only saw Xie Chaoshi.

  She lowered her eyelids, hiding all the emotions in her eyes. Her face remained calm, but her heart was beating fast.

  "Master, would you like to clean up a room for me?"

  "Junior sister, is she okay?"

  "No need, she's fine."

  Yun Mian felt a little uncomfortable. She was really going to have a junior sister...

  In the future, perhaps she will live in the master's palace.

  She didn't dare show any abnormality in front of Xie Chaoshi. In her confused thoughts, she heard herself asking in a seemingly calm voice.

  "Junior sister, is she going to live with Master?"

  ...
