“Brat, what do you think of me?”
Chu Feng was stunned for a moment upon hearing Liu Shijing’s question.
“Senior, what… what do you mean by that?”
Liu Shijing realized she had misspoken, and a flush of red immediately spread across her cheeks.
“N-Nothing! Ahem. Brat, forget what I just said!”
Her voice was flustered, her gaze evasive. It was just like she had accidentally blurted out something from the bottom of her heart.
Looking at Liu Shijing, who now didn’t even dare meet his eyes, Chu Feng was surprised. He never expected her to have such a cute side.
He was about to say, “Senior, I didn’t hear anything,”
But when the words came out of his mouth, they suddenly turned into—
“Senior, you’re actually kind of cute right now.”
Chu Feng: !!!
Crap!
Why did he say what was in his heart again?!
Wouldn’t Liu Shijing beat him to a pulp now?!
It felt like he had completely lost control of his mouth…whatever he thought just came spilling out.
When Chu Feng’s words reached Liu Shijing’s ears, her heart instantly went into chaos.
“C-Cute!? You little brat, you—!”
“Senior! What I meant just now wasn’t—”
“Then tell me, brat, between me and Xueyao me, who…who do you think is cuter?”
“Huh?”
Chu Feng wondered if he’d misheard.
Did Senior really just say that kind of thing!?
Liu Shijing herself didn’t know what had gotten into her. It just slipped out.
Why would she even want to compare herself with Xueyao?
She was Xueyao’s aunt, for heaven’s sake!
How could she have such a thought?!
Right! It was all the wine’s fault!
“If we’re talking about cuteness, I think Senior has a slight edge.”
Chu Feng said this straight from the heart.
After all, Sister Saintess had a cold and distant personality. Cuteness just didn’t suit her.
The phrase “untouched by worldly dust” was far more fitting for someone like her.
Though… if we’re talking about “gap moe”, then yes….especially when she’s drunk, the contrast is actually kind of adorable.
Liu Shijing: !!!
Chu Feng’s words sent a strange, tingling warmth through Liu Shijing’s heart, making her thoughts go fuzzy.
Unconsciously, she leaned in just a little closer.
“Then… if you had to choose between Xueyao and me… who would you pick?”
She asked the question nervously, not even sure why she brought it up.
Maybe it was because the image of Chu Feng and Xueyao being so close earlier popped into her head.
But the moment she asked it, she regretted it.
Didn’t that just outright admit she was jealous of Xueyao?!
Still, Liu Shijing couldn’t help but be curious about Chu Feng’s answer.
She hoped he would choose her. But at the same time, she hoped he would choose Xueyao.
After all, she had already given her body to this brat.
But Xueyao… was deeply in love with him too.
For a moment, Liu Shijing was utterly conflicted.
Chu Feng took a deep breath and said seriously:
“Senior, when it comes to choices like this….there’s no ‘single choice’ for me. Only ‘multiple choice’.”
“Multiple choice?”
“Yes. I want them all!”
Chu Feng couldn’t stand those who betrayed a girl’s feelings, only to act all noble afterward.
As for “true harem, no fake feelings”, he firmly supported the real deal.
After hearing Chu Feng’s response, Liu Shijing pursed her red lips.
Though it wasn’t a perfect answer, it was at least a passing one.
She gave him a slight glare.
“Such a young age, not much strength, and already such a lustful heart. Do you even realize that I’m an elder of the Yaochi Holy Land, and Xueyao is the Saintess?”
“I know. And while I may be weak now, Senior, there’s something I’ve always believed in. ‘Don’t underestimate the poor youth!’ Given time, there’s no reason I can’t stand at the peak!”
All those so-called Chosen Ones, Children of Destiny….Chu Feng wasn’t afraid of any of them.
If he wasn’t afraid of them, why would he be afraid of anything else?
After saying this, Chu Feng radiated an aura of bold ambition, causing Liu Shijing’s eyes to sparkle.
This brat… sure had guts.
Brushing a lock of hair behind her ear, Liu Shijing said:
“I’m in a good mood today. If you have any requests, just say it. Even if it’s a little unreasonable… I’ll allow it.”
Requests? Anything goes?!
Upon hearing those words, Chu Feng swallowed instinctively.
At some point, Liu Shijing had already leaned in close to him.
With her carefully done makeup, her elegant black hair framing her cheeks, fair skin, and her delicate nose above those vibrant red lips….Chu Feng, from where he sat, could even see the two silver earrings swaying slightly, sparkling in the light.
Matched with her stunning beauty, “breathtakingly gorgeous” didn’t even begin to describe her.
Chu Feng froze for a moment, her earlier words still echoing in his mind, throwing his thoughts into complete disarray.
He knew he shouldn’t… but his mind was foggy now, and his instincts were hard to suppress.
The two little voices in his head fought endlessly….until, somehow, as if guided by some unseen force, he gathered his courage and leaned in toward those tempting red lips… and kissed her.
Their lips met. They were soft and warm like honey.
“Mmph!”
Liu Shijing’s beautiful eyes widened. She never expected this brat to actually kiss her!
Her body stiffened, hands unsure of where to go.
She knew she should push him away. She wanted to push him away.
But deep down… an unfamiliar thought arose—
Maybe this isn’t so bad.
In the end, her eyes slowly fluttered shut.
What started as a young man embracing a mature beauty gradually turned into the mature beauty wrapping her arms around the youth’s neck….entwined in each other’s warmth.
Just as both of them were fully caught up in the moment, Liu Shijing’s communication token suddenly vibrated.
Her eyes shot open, and the reality of the scene hit her like a lightning bolt.
What was she doing?!
In the next instant, her eyes filled with shock and shame.
She pushed Chu Feng away with a gasp, her breathing uneven, and exclaimed in disbelief:
“You… you brat! How dare you!?”
Chu Feng: !!??
Chu Feng was stunned too. Just now, he had given in to the temptation in his heart. Coupled with what Liu Shijing had said…that he could ask for anything, his mind had gone completely blank, and so he just…
“Senior, it’s not what it looks like, I… I don’t even know how I ended up…”
As he spoke, he caught sight of the wine cup he had just finished.
Wine… Right, it was after drinking that wine that he started acting irrationally.
Chu Feng picked up the cup and sniffed it. Within the scent of the wine, there seemed to be a faint trace of medicinal herbs. He had been drinking herbal medicine daily for some time now, so he was very sensitive to the smell of medicine.
Seeing Chu Feng pick up the wine cup and even sniff it, Liu Shijing felt her heart skip a beat. Oh no… Could it be that this brat actually noticed?
If this brat really figured out that she secretly drugged the wine, she’d never be able to hold her head up in front of him again!
Just then, the communication token vibrated again. Liu Shijing picked it up. It was Mu Liuxuan, the Outer Sect Master, urgently requesting her presence, and she was told to bring along a male disciple under Chu Feng.
Take that brat along? What’s so urgent?
Mu Liuxuan had used an emergency communication.
After smelling the wine cup, Chu Feng picked up the wine pot, opened the lid, and brought it close to his nose. This time, he was sure…there was definitely some kind of medicinal ingredient mixed into the wine.
Before he could ask, Liu Shijing spoke up first: “Brat, come with me!”
Pa—
Liu Shijing grabbed Chu Feng’s hand in one swift motion.
“Wait! Senior!”
Chu Feng opened his mouth, wanting to ask, “Senior, was there something mixed into the wine?”
But before he could finish, the next moment, he experienced what it truly meant to take off on the spot.
“Slow down, Senior! We’re way too high up!”
