_ _ _ _ _

Sizhui was helping Jingyi walk to his chamber when Feng Zi caught up with them.

"Yuan-ge! Come with me for a while" Feng Zi pulled Sizhui away from Jingyi.

"Wait! I have to bring Jingyi to his chamber first" Sizhui protested.

"A-Ling will come here in a few moments to bring Jingyi-ge" Feng Zi dragged Sizhui away harshly that the latter didn't even get to say anything to Jingyi.

"Eh! Sizhui!"

"No loud noises inside the Cloud Recesses" a familiar voice spoke behind Jingyi.

"What are you still doing here?" Jingyi asked as he turn to face the young man. "I thought you're going to meet with Lord Xue?"

Instead of answering, Yang took out a charm bell nd gave it to Jingyi.

"Take it"

"Eh? Isn't this the one you showed to master Lan back in Lanshi?" Jingyi took the bell and examined it "He looks like he was afraid of this bell. What is it?"

"It's just a charm bell made in Yiling" Yang looked away, trying to avoid Jingyi's eyes.

"Then why are you giving this to me?"

"All of us have it" Yang gave an alibi "And you're always with Yuan-ge so I figured you should have it too, in case you came to Yiling with him"

"But Sizhui never goes to Yiling . ." Jingyi didn't get to finish what he was saying cause Yang suddenly vanished.

Soon, Jin Ling did came and took Jingyi to his chamber.

. . .

Another day of lecturing in Lanshi and Lan Qiren is in usual self again. Walking around as he read the lesson from the book.

That day, Guangyao and Xichen went out to check on the water ghouls if they were really taken cared of by Yang.

When Lan Qiren passed by the second row, he stopped as he noticed that Jin Ling wasn't listening and was looking at somewhere. And when he followed his gaze, Lan Qiren immediately boiled in anger.

Jin Ling was staring at none other than Sizhui.

"Young childe Jin!" Lan Qiren called him.

Flustered by the sudden call, Jin Ling jolted up and bowed to Lan Qiren.

"Yes, master Lan?"

"Since you think you're good enough not to pay attention to me, let me ask you a few questions"

"Ah?" Jin Ling's face looks like he just ate something bitter.

"What can you not find in the mountain of Handu?"

"Men"

"What is the profession of Qinghe Nie sect's founder?"

"A butcher"

"What do you call a person who uses wicked tricks in cultivating?"

"Jiujiu" Jin Ling answered unconsciously without thinking.

Everyone had to cover their mouths to hide their laughter. Lan Qiren on the other hand was about to explode.

"Jin Rulan!" Lan Qiren pointed at Jin Ling with great anger.

"Master Lan!" Feng Zi stood up to save Jin Ling "What's wrong with A-Ling's answer?"

"I asked a serious question and I expect a serious answer!"
