Chapter 12: Junior Brother, Is That Really What He Thinks?
If I want to live comfortably under Luo Jiuyan in the future, I definitely need to strengthen my relationship with her.
If things are going to be as intense as they were during the day, where just talking to another woman leads to life-and-death situations, how am I supposed to get by in the future?
Therefore, Ye Shu had no choice but to start working on winning over Luo Jiuyan.
And right now, he was at a loss on how to further develop his relationship with his master, Luo Jiuyan.
But isn’t someone coming to his door with a brilliant idea?
“Not bad!” Ye Shu looked at the two passes.
If it were something too outrageous, Luo Jiuyan would definitely not agree.
If it were too casual, he wouldn’t get any real benefit.
But these Lantern Festival passes could create endless possibilities!
Through shopping, eating, and maybe even some intimate moments, they could deepen their bond.
The upper limit could be a wild night of passion, while the lower limit would at least be a beautiful memory.
In any case, it’s a win-win situation!
Ye Shu was extremely grateful to Bai Rourou for bringing him such a brilliant idea. “Senior Sister Bai, you really understand me!”
“W-what?” Bai Rourou covered her red lips, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief, and she instinctively lowered her head.
At this moment, her heart was in turmoil. What does he mean by that? Did he already have such plans? No way, how could he have such thoughts?
To verify this thought again, Bai Rourou timidly asked, “Do you really like these two passes?”
“Like them? Of course, I like them!”
Ye Shu nodded with conviction.
Thinking about strolling through the streets with Luo Jiuyan, eating snacks, watching the lanterns, and spending a beautiful time with her—how could he not like it?
“Ah, this…” Bai Rourou was momentarily speechless.
Is this for real? Is he really this bold? He’s already saying it outright.
Doesn’t he care about the sect rules at all?
Seeming to notice that Bai Rourou was acting a bit strange, Ye Shu quickly added, “Senior Sister Bai, don’t misunderstand! I’m taking these passes with no strange intentions! I’m going with a respected elder who’s older than me!”
“Ah, you!”
Bai Rourou raised her head, her cheeks flushed, and she slapped Ye Shu’s arm in frustration.
She let out a soft huff.
In her heart, she was cursing him for being an idiot! If he hadn’t said anything, it would’ve been fine, but now he’s made it obvious who he’s talking about!
Thinking this, Bai Rourou covered her burning cheeks and closed her eyes.
Isn’t she the respected Senior Sister he’s talking about, the one who’s older than him? Though “elder” might be a bit of an exaggeration.
Junior Brother really doesn’t know how to keep things subtle. He had to say it so plainly.
Ye Shu looked at her expression, feeling puzzled.
What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?
Isn’t Master Luo Jiuyan the most respected elder in my life?
Are you jealous?
At this moment, Bai Rourou raised her head and frowned as she asked, “Do you really think she’ll agree to go with you?”
At the same time, she couldn’t help but laugh inwardly. “I won’t agree to something like this so easily! If something were to happen, wouldn’t that violate the sect rules? If you don’t give me a satisfactory answer, don’t even think about me agreeing!”
“She’ll probably agree.”
Ye Shu thought about how Luo Jiuyan had promised him a favor. She probably wouldn’t refuse something like this.
He slowly said, “Although she can be a bit temperamental at times, sometimes cold and distant, and quick to discipline people.”
“Huh?” Bai Rourou frowned and clenched her fists.
What does that mean? Is that how I seem in your eyes?
But then again, thinking about what happened during the day…
It’s kind of true…
Ye Shu continued, “But she’s also understanding, kind-hearted, and treats me very, very well. If it weren’t for my fear of her, she’d be a perfect woman!”
Thinking about Luo Jiuyan’s figure.
Ye Shu came to this conclusion.
To be honest, Luo Jiuyan is really great! She was willing to lower herself and break her own rules because of her disciple’s inner demon, even getting entangled with me.
Just for that alone, Ye Shu had nothing more to say.
Plus, she’s stunningly beautiful and incredibly powerful. If it weren’t for his fear of her, Ye Shu would give her full marks without hesitation.
“You!!”
Bai Rourou bit her lip, her face trembling uncontrollably.
Her pupils shook as she stared at Ye Shu.
She felt like she was going crazy!
She never expected that in Junior Brother’s eyes, she would be such a perfect woman!
Bai Rourou almost burst into tears on the spot, her eyes already glistening with moisture.
As a Senior Sister, she held onto her dignity and didn’t let herself cry out loud.
She didn’t know what to say.
All she knew was that her heart had been deeply touched.
In her twenty years of life, this was the first time she had heard such sincere and heartfelt words. She felt like she was in a fairy tale.
“Senior Sister will be gentler with you from now on!” Bai Rourou could only say this.
She was filled with guilt.
She shouldn’t have given Junior Brother such a hard time!
Junior Brother is such a good person. I was wrong to misunderstand him!
Ye Shu was completely baffled, thinking to himself, Senior Sister, are you feeling okay? Why are you so emotional all of a sudden?
“Sigh, she’ll probably agree, right?” His thoughts were still on Luo Jiuyan, thinking that she probably wouldn’t refuse this request.
At this moment, Bai Rourou shyly said, “Don’t worry! She’ll definitely agree!”
In her heart, she cooed, I can’t believe you! Fine, I’ll agree. But you shouldn’t praise someone so openly like that. You’re such a fool~
Hearing Bai Rourou’s words, Ye Shu felt encouraged and nodded. “Yeah, I think so too.”
Then, Ye Shu felt there was nothing more to say and prepared to see her out. “Senior Sister Bai, thank you for coming all this way to give me such a great gift. I don’t know how to thank you. If there’s anything you need in the future, just let me know.”
“Oh, alright.”
Bai Rourou stood up reluctantly, feeling a bit displeased.
They had just been talking so passionately, and now he was kicking her out.
Ye Shu opened the door. “Senior Sister Bai, I won’t see you off. Feel free to come by again when you have time.”
As soon as he said this, Ye Shu wanted to slap himself.
Come by again? For what?
If Luo Jiuyan finds out, I’m done for!
Bai Rourou walked to the door but didn’t leave. Instead, she turned around and glanced back, looking like she still had something to say.
It seemed like there was still something unresolved.
“Why hasn’t he made it clear yet? Why hasn’t he given me one of the passes? What’s Junior Brother playing at?” Bai Rourou complained inwardly.
She was already at the door.
It would be strange if he didn’t give her one of the passes.
“Senior Sister Bai, what’s wrong?” Ye Shu asked.
“I…”
Bai Rourou hesitated for a moment, then mustered her courage and asked with a red face, “Junior Brother, when are you planning to give it to her?”
“This matter?”
Ye Shu felt it was strange. Senior Sister is too nosy, he thought. “I’ll give it to her when I have the chance.”
It’s not like I can rush to Luo Jiuyan’s palace in the middle of the night.
“Oh, I see.” Bai Rourou couldn’t help but smile.
She thought to herself, How can there be such a silly Junior Brother in the world?
Did he think Senior Sister didn’t know? Was he trying to keep it a surprise?
Fine!
Senior Sister will play along with your little act.
After all, you did say such nice things about Senior Sister.
Bai Rourou covered her mouth, hiding her smile as she left.
Her figure was filled with an indescribable joy.
Under the moonlight, Ye Shu watched her leave, scratching his head in confusion.
This feeling is so strange!
What’s wrong with Senior Sister Bai tonight?
Did she take the wrong medicine?
Whatever.
Ye Shu looked at the Lantern Festival passes in his hand, a slight smile forming on his lips.
“Master, you’d better be ready for your disciple’s relentless charm offensive!”
