Gave In, Gave In

While gently instructing Bai Luoming, Jingliu subtly glanced at Jing Yuan, wondering why he was still there if nothing was wrong.

Jing Yuan's presence here is somewhat affecting her performance.

Jing Yuan noticed Jingliu's glance and felt even more desolate. He hadn't expected that his junior brother had only just arrived and his master had already forgotten about his eldest disciple. He had even been trying his best to delay the Nameless for her.

Jingliu naturally had no idea what Jing Yuan was thinking, but even if he did, he wouldn't care. After all, this wasn't his junior brother; he was clearly his master's father-in-law.

This concerns one's own happiness, so making some necessary sacrifices is only right.

Thinking of this, Jingliu's last bit of guilt towards Jing Yuan completely vanished.

Seeing that Jing Yuan was still standing there, she felt a little annoyed. She whispered to Bai Luoming to go practice on his own, then turned her gaze to Jing Yuan and said coldly:

Is your workload that light now?

"... Of course not, I even had to squeeze out time to see my master."

"Aren't you going back to handle official business?"

"I'll go right away."

After saying this, Jing Yuan Jingliu Liu and walked towards the courtyard gate. However, Jing Yuan turned back halfway and looked at Jingliu, saying in a low voice, "Master, I'm really curious, what do you think of this junior brother?"

Upon hearing this, Jingliu turned his gaze to Bai Luoming, a hint of tenderness appearing in his eyes. Seeing that Bai Luoming's attention wasn't on them, he then said, "You'll understand later."

Seeing Jingliu's expression, Jing Yuan understood Jingliu's thoughts, so he cupped his hands and said to Jingliu, "Then I'll take my leave, but Master, please be mindful of your behavior."

After saying that, Jing Yuan strode towards the outside of the courtyard and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Jingliu watched Jing Yuan leave, feeling relieved. She couldn't let Bai Lu leave yesterday because of her Bailu, but Jing Yuan was different; she wouldn't be polite to him at all.

But she didn't react immediately. Instead, she sat quietly on the stool, watching Bai Luoming his sword moves while eating the breakfast he had brought.

As for Jing Yuan's last words, she didn't take them to heart. At her age, she no longer cared about worldly fame; she was now enjoying the present moment more.

And so, one of them practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard, while the other sat quietly eating breakfast, occasionally offering suggestions, creating an atmosphere of serene contentment.

Time flowed by slowly, and no matter how substantial the breakfast Bai Luoming bought was, it would eventually be finished.

Jingliu stared blankly at the empty bag in his hand for a moment, then realized what was happening, put the bag on the table, and stood up.

She watched Bai Luoming practicing his swordplay to the side, licked her lips, and noticed that the breakfast Bai Luoming had brought was delicious and suited her taste perfectly.

However, this could only satisfy her physical hunger; her heart remained constantly consumed by hunger.

Now that she's full, she's going to start looking for food.

Bai Luoming was completely unaware of this. In between practice, he was secretly relieved that his current Jingliu was still perfectly normal, whereas yesterday's Jingliu was clearly a manifestation of his Mara-Struck.

Thinking of this, Bai Luoming felt a little relieved. He really didn't know how to face these people who claimed to be his future girlfriends.

Although Bai Luoming didn't know them most of the time, he always felt a strange sense of guilt when he was around them. This feeling was like a leech, lingering in his heart for a long time.

He quickly noticed Jingliu's actions, but he didn't pay much attention to it, since Jingliu seemed perfectly normal at the moment.

Even when Jingliu stood up and walked towards him, Bai Luoming only thought that he had done something wrong and that she wanted to give him some pointers.

When Jingliu arrived at his side, Bai Luoming stopped what he was doing and respectfully greeted Jingliu, "Master."

"Um."

I wonder if I did something wrong?

Jingliu's red eyes widened slightly as she stared intently at Bai Luoming's face. After a long while, she finally spoke, "Disciple made a mistake. Come, let me demonstrate it for you."

Upon hearing this, Bai Luoming naturally offered his sword to Jingliu, but Jingliu waved his hand and refused his offer.

Seeing this, he was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Master, is it not necessary to use a sword in the demonstration?"

"No need."

After saying that, Jingliu reached out and grabbed Bai Luoming's wrist, twisted his body, and appeared directly behind him.

Jingliu stood behind him, his broad chest pressed against his back, his hands gripping his wrists, and said softly, "Disciple, feel it well."

"Master, what you've done..."

"Don't speak, just feel it."

As Jingliu spoke, he held Bai Luoming's hand and demonstrated his sword techniques, but after only two moves, Jingliu frowned.

Because Bai Luoming's body was stiff and he wasn't cooperating with her at all, she leaned closer to Bai Luoming and whispered in his ear.

"My disciple, why won't you cooperate with your master?"

"Master, this is... a bit too exciting. I don't know how to cooperate."

Bai Luoming never expected that Jingliu's so-called demonstration would be like this. He tried to struggle, but it was clear that with Jingliu's monstrous strength, he could not succeed.

Seeing this, Bai Luoming stopped resisting. He figured he could just give it to her; he already had enough emotional debts, so what was the harm in having more?

Even though he thought that way, the hormonal aura emanating from Jingliu still made him somewhat distracted, his body stiff, and he was completely unable to cooperate with Jingliu.

Upon hearing this, Jingliu's lips curled up, and he said to Bai Luoming, "But it's very difficult for your master to demonstrate this, disciple."

Jingliu rested her head on his shoulder, her breath sweet as orchids, and as she spoke, she kept exhaling warm air that brushed against Bai Luoming's ear, making him feel a ticklish sensation.

Bai Luoming leaned back slightly, but as soon as he did, he bumped into Jingliu and said helplessly, "But Master, it's hard for me to move like this."

His words seemed to move Jingliu. After a moment's thought, she said to Bai Luoming, "Indeed, since my disciple is working so hard, then I will teach her something easier."

Upon hearing Jingliu's words, Bai Luoming Jingliu overjoyed and asked, "I wonder what Master wishes to teach?"

At this moment, in Bai Luoming's mind, whatever kind of play Jingliu wanted to play, even if he wanted to sleep with Dua Lang, it would be better than the current situation, at least he could get rid of this indecisive state.
