So straightforward, so without a guilty conscience?
Ye Qingxuan didn't know how to respond.
After all, she hadn't called a stop just now, and hadn't expected that Yun Ming could really commit the crime under her gaze.
She turned around and grabbed Yun Ming's hand, not allowing him to move, and said with delicate anger.
"How old are you?"
"Thirteen..."
So honest, but don't I know that?
Ye Qingxuan was silent for a while.
Although her heart felt helpless, she didn't feel disgusted at all.
If Yun'er were so proactive at other times, she would have hugged him into her arms long ago, oh, she wants to now too.
Yun'er is so cute... Her pursed lips finally opened.
Her pearly teeth gently bit her red lips, and she said something a little shy.
"...Then we can only hold hands indoors, don't mess around outside."
"Why?"
Why are there so many whys? Wouldn't holding hands outside cause misunderstandings, with so many fellow Apprentices watching.
But she couldn't say these words.
"Yun'er, are you pretending to be stupid with me on purpose? If you tease Senior Sister again, Senior Sister will get angry."
"Oh... then we'll hold hands indoors."
Yun Ming was like a child who had obtained a novel toy, continuing to play with that slender hand, his fingertips stroking and caressing every line.
That feeling became even stranger.
"Yun'er!"
Ye Qingxuan noticed the other party's strangeness and quickly retracted her hand, pretending to be angry and standing up.
"What do you take Senior Sister for! ?"
"You little pervert, next time I should really ask Shishu and Shifu to discipline you properly!"
After saying that, she walked towards the outside of the house.
If she stayed any longer, she always had a feeling that something would happen.
She hadn't realized it before, but was her situation so dangerous? But perhaps this was also her responsibility.
After all, she was the one who insisted on bathing together in the first place... But how could Yun'er have such thoughts about her?
Ye Qingxuan regretted it, but there was no regret medicine to take in the world, and the person following behind her was like a ghostly shadow, his footsteps silent.
"Senior Sister, I was wrong..."
"I just like holding Senior Sister's hand, but usually I can't... Can't I today either?"
That voice was very low, like a lost person.
"I don't have any other thoughts, I just wanted to tease Senior Sister... Senior Sister's hand... Can I not hold it in the future?"
"..."
Yun Ming's last sentence was almost so weak that it disappeared, and something seemed to suddenly crack in the silence.
Crack... Was it a mirror falling to the ground and shattering into pieces?
The room was still silent, with no response.
"I see... I will listen obediently."
"Wait..."
Ye Qingxuan suddenly turned around, but the young man took a step ahead of her, rushed out the door, and when he turned around again, he still had a bright smile.
As if nothing had happened just now.
"Senior Sister, come out and take a look at the three little guys' new clothes, what are you doing standing there?"
Outside the door were smiling junior sisters, surrounding Yun Ming, like flower fairies frolicking... so lively, so joyful.
But why—
Her heart seemed to be clenched tightly by an invisible hand, choking, sour and depressed.
Ye Qingxuan was usually swift and decisive.
She never hesitated or procrastinated in doing things, but now even lifting a foot seemed to be tied with ten thousand catties of iron chains, extremely difficult.
Junior Brother, was he doing it on purpose?
She couldn't help but guess like this. Usually, Yun'er was magnanimous and straightforward, or he would just joke around and play some tricks.
When would he act like a young girl?
Even if he was affected by his mood today, she was still the person who knew Yun Ming best. Even if he had any ideas.
Even if it was just a look.
Ye Qingxuan could guess what the other party was thinking, but in the past, one was deceiving herself and the other was pretending to be stupid.
She guessed right, but so what... Almost uncontrollably, her body had already taken action before her reason, and the deep doting hidden in the woman's eyes emerged.
She generously walked towards her junior brother.
Holding her head high proudly, the narrowed eyes burst out with a sharp light, like a treasured sword hidden for many years being unsheathed.
Her aura was compelling.
The woman stopped half a meter in front of the young man, neither too close nor too far.
Just as the young man opened his mouth to say something.
She took the lead and messed up Yun Ming's flowing black hair as if to vent, and then gently combed it neatly.
But she still scolded in her mouth.
"Walking so fast, you don't even wait for me..."
"You don't listen to people finish speaking, you just like to play little tricks with me, but Senior Sister is generous and won't bother with you."
"Next time if you do this again, Junior Brother, you should think carefully ~"
Ke Ke stood aside, feeling a little dazed.
How long had they been together?
She came out and seemed like a different person. She clearly also tried to coax him just now, so was it because she didn't love her... Wuwu, Eldest Senior Sister doesn't love Ke Ke anymore.
Okay, Ke Ke was just thinking about it. She naturally knew that Senior Sister and Junior Brother had a deep friendship, and the one who tied the bell must untie it.
Shifu often said that.
Moreover, Eldest Senior Sister was unspeakably dazzling now, like the light she usually concealed.
Today, it bloomed unintentionally.
At this time, she remembered that for a long time... Ye Qingxuan, Yun Kui Mountain's Eldest Senior Sister.
Her talent was extraordinary, suppressing the current era.
Even Yun Ming's cultivation only surpassed her last year, but compared to Yun Ming, she was not only proficient in scriptures.
Spells, swordsmanship, medical skills, alchemy, and weapon refining.
All were somewhat accomplished.
Perhaps she was still not as good as Shifu, but after all, she was still young and had a promising future.
Therefore, she was able to become the person in charge of Yun Kui Mountain's internal affairs on weekdays, and Eldest Senior Sister handled everything that wasn't a major event.
Ke Ke hugged Ling'er, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
As expected of her Senior Sister ~
Ling'er also smiled, for no other reason than that she saw her Senior Sister actually taking Yun Ming's hand.
This was incredible!
Ling'er really wanted to know what exactly happened in the room just now, if only she had secretly taken a look.
At this moment, Yun Ming was also stunned.
Senior Sister inadvertently took his hand. He looked at Senior Sister, but Senior Sister looked at him with a questioning look.
"What's wrong?"
Just like the red bean that day.
Hand... But Yun Ming wouldn't ask knowingly this time, he just smiled foolishly and praised.
"Senior Sister is so beautiful."
As a result, he honestly got hit again. It seemed that Senior Sister was not in a good mood today, Yun Ming didn't dare to speak dejectedly.
If he took advantage and acted cute... Senior Sister might really ignore him for several days.
"What, you're not talking? Do you have a problem with me hitting you?"
"No, Senior Sister can hit me whenever she wants..."
"Ew, Brother's words are so mushy."
Ling'er came up in a timely manner, covering her mouth and snickering, while Yi Jiang also looked at the pair of hands holding each other in confusion.
Was this right?
"Shifu can hit Yi Xuan whenever she wants, Yi Xuan will never talk back again!"
Yi Xuan was cute and innocent, wearing new clothes and only having the most sincere love for Shifu, but these words stirred up a thousand waves.
Ye Qingxuan frowned immediately, "You hit your Apprentice?"
"No, that was..."
"Hmm? Yi Jiang and Yi Xuan are so well-behaved, how could Junior Brother be willing to? Even if Yi Xuan always sleeps during Shifu's class, you can't hit the children!"
Ke Ke echoed.
She blinked her eyes, waku waku!
It seemed a little exciting.
It had been a long time since she had seen Eldest Senior Sister clean up Yun Ming, she missed it a little... Sure enough, the hand that was warmly held just now, and even secretly intertwined by Yun Ming, immediately took the opportunity to let go.
Ye Qingxuan pulled the two little ones over.
"Yi Xuan, Yi Jiang, come and tell Senior Sister, how did your Shifu hit you?"
"Umm..."
"It's okay, with me here, he won't dare to mess around."
Yi Xuan glanced at Shifu, and Shifu glared at her.
She puffed out her mouth, Shifu was so fierce.
She hit her, and she had already forgiven Shifu and was willing to be hit by Shifu in the future, but Shifu didn't admit it.
Ye Qingxuan glanced at Yun Ming coldly and grabbed his ear, although she knew that Junior Brother was not a bad person.
But after all, he had no experience in educating children.
"Speak, I'll avenge you."
Yi Xuan originally wanted to let Shifu off, after all, what if she got beaten again when she went back? Although she had said she was willing to be beaten.
But her butt was made of flesh, and it would hurt.
She was just expressing her position ~
She glanced left and right, Ye Qingxuan coaxed her patiently, Senior Sister shook her head helplessly, but Ling'er gave her a thumbs up.
It seemed that the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.
She said the fatal words timidly.
"Shifu had me and Senior Sister lie on the bed, one on the left and one on the right, and spanked our butts."
"..."
Ye Qingxuan was silent.
