Guangnan Yan family’s girl is quite good. But speaking of this, I’m going to scold you again, you’re so stupid! If you want to protect her, why not ask a reliable person to help? You ask that old fellow’s disciple to secretly follow her, you’re such a pig-head! His disciple can’t be trusted either!”
“Master…” Qu Yao was speechless.
That old fellow’s disciple had already fallen for the Yan girl along the way. I happened to encounter her, personally saw her being taken back by her family, and thus saved my future daughter-in-law. Otherwise, when that old fellow invites my master and disciple to drink wedding wine, I would be too embarrassed!”
“Master!” Qu Yao’s eyebrows twitched. “Please return the jade pendant to me.”
The woman played with it for a while, then casually tossed it into the air. Qu Yao instantly used her light martial arts to carefully catch it, then heard her master chuckling: “Your light kung fu is still impressive. What are you nervous about? If you can’t catch it, I have a way! Moreover, how could you casually accept such a precious personal item from someone?”
“Disciple knows her limits,” Qu Yao felt her blood vessels jumping impatiently. Her master always had such a mischievous taste! Because of her cold and rigid personality, her master found her uninteresting and tried various ways to tease her.
“Don’t deny it! Since you started learning martial arts from me, you’ve only been loyal to the Qu family. Many good men in the mansion have caught your eye, but you’ve ignored them. But for a sudden, strange woman, why did you help her, betray your sect to save her, and even harm yourself to heal her? Worried about her safety on the journey, you even requested secret protection?
Gave away the sword you’ve used for ten years? My disciple, you’ve fallen in love with her!”
The woman ignored Qu Yao’s shocked, restrained, and embarrassed expression, patting her shoulder earnestly, gazing far away with a deep sigh.
After a long while, Qu Yao spoke in a calm voice: “Master, why are you telling me these things? You’re usually so mysterious…”
“Alas! The jianghu is lonely. I suddenly want to drink a cup of hot daughter-in-law tea!”
