"Ye Tian~ Don't mind Yue'er. Her brain might not have developed properly."
Qian Renxue went around Jin Yue'er and came before Ye Tian.
Perhaps she was still upset.
She bluntly voiced the conclusion she had reached years ago.
"Is, is that so?"
Ye Tian's expression turned strange.
It seemed that was the only explanation for Jin Yue'er's condition.
Hopefully, the Marrow Cleansing Pill could cure her brain.
"Yes."
Qian Renxue nodded and hurriedly pleaded.
"You're not allowed to tell Yue'er."
"Mm, I promise!"
Ye Tian smiled. Whether it was said in anger or not, he took it seriously anyway.
"Thank you~"
Qian Renxue said softly as her Phoenix Eyes looked Ye Tian up and down, taking in his outfit. Curious, she asked, "Your new clothes look so nice. Did you just buy them?"
"Haha~ Yes, they were custom-made last night."
Ye Tian explained with a smile, reaching back to close the gates of Wisteria Residence.
They had only known each other for a few days.
Ye Tian Didn't know what to talk about with the two young girls.
So he could only get straight to the point and ask:
"Little Xue, what did you come to see me for?"
As he spoke.
Ye Tian looked towards Jin Yue'er, who had finished her seizure, and glanced at the empty bottle in her hand.
Qian Renxue understood Ye Tian's cleverness and apologetically said, "Yue'er was greedy and finished all the medicine. She wanted to get some more from you."
"That's right!"
Jin Yue'er suddenly charged out from behind Qian Renxue and nodded heavily.
Looking at Ye Tian, she said with a beaming smile:
"Ye Tian, my Grandpa said that as long as you can ensure I safely awaken my martial soul, he can do one thing for you unconditionally~"
"Oh?!"
A gleam flickered in Ye Tian's eyes. He had not expected Jin E to make such a promise.
Its value far exceeded Jin E's cultivation.
To a certain extent, it could also be seen as a promise from the entire Worship Hall.
"That's right!"
Qian Renxue nodded and added:
"But the premise is that it cannot harm the interests of our Spirit Hall."
"I understand that."
Ye Tian beamed with joy and readily accepted.
"Then please thank Your Excellency Jin E for me. I won't let him down!"
"Yay!"
Jin Yue'er cheered and directly held out the small porcelain bottle in her hand.
"Ye Tian, hurry and fill it up for me~"
"Uh, keep it down. Teacher is cultivating."
Ye Tian rolled his eyes and took the porcelain bottle from her.
"By the way, how long until you awaken your martial soul?"
"Half a year."
Qian Renxue shot Jin Yue'er a glare as she covered her mouth and answered first.
"Then there should be enough time."
Ye Tian nodded, then suddenly noticed Qian Renxue's hesitant expression.
"Little Xue? Is there something else?"
"..."
Qian Renxue nodded gravely.
Jin Yue'er did not interrupt again, merely staring eagerly at the bottle in Ye Tian's hand.
After a long while.
Qian Renxue finally looked towards Ye Tian with a face full of sorrow and helplessly asked:
"Ye Tian, what am I supposed to do?"
"Can you help me? Think of another way to cure her?"
"..."
Ye Tian's movements as he filled the Pill bottle paused, and he fell silent.
To be honest.
If he had not initially wanted to use Qian Renxue, this rich young lady, to build connections.
He would never have wanted to wade into this muddy water.
The heavenly cycle turned, and retribution never failed.
Right and wrong were not for any one person to decide.
Bibi Dong made a mistake and had her innocence defiled;
Qian Xunji committed evil and left behind calamity. Sooner or later, he would suffer the consequences.
Even if he talked himself hoarse.
He was currently just a small Spirit Master. Anyone could crush him to death. Within Spirit Hall, siding with either of them would bring him no benefit.
The only thing he wanted now was to become stronger.
To steadily build up a solid foundation, including connections.
But when faced with Qian Renxue's question.
Ye Tian had no way to avoid it.
Because, just as Qian Renxue had said, they had already become Good Friends.
Besides.
When it came to connections, who could compare to Qian Renxue?
No matter how he looked at it, Ye Tian had to answer this question.
And he had to answer it beautifully!
"Ye Tian~"
Qian Renxue nervously watched Ye Tian.
She Didn't know when it had started, but no one was willing to support her in approaching Bibi Dong anymore.
Now, Ye Tian was the only one!
He meant something extraordinary to her.
"I'm here~"
Ye Tian smiled, came back to his senses, and tightened the stopper on the bottle in his hand.
He had already thought of an answer.
Jin Yue'er had long since become impatient.
The moment she saw that the Pills had been filled, her eyes lit up, and she readied herself to pounce.
Under Qian Renxue's expectant gaze.
Ye Tian pinched the porcelain bottle and said with a smile:
"Little Xue, I think distance can sometimes make the heart grow fonder."
"What?"
Qian Renxue looked confused.
"Like this."
Ye Tian did not waste any time and immediately demonstrated.
He raised the porcelain bottle high into the air, pretending that he was about to throw it.
"Ah! Ye Tian!"
Jin Yue'er instantly grew anxious, lunging and grabbing wildly.
"Haha. See? A proper distance can make someone even more desperate for it."
Before the words fell.
The porcelain bottle flew from his hand, tracing a perfect arc.
It looked as though it would land on the grass before the gate.
Jin Yue'er hurriedly ran after it.
"Ah, my medicine!"
"..."
Qian Renxue was utterly stunned.
Even if Yue'er really had something wrong with her brain, Ye Tian could not treat her like that, could he?
Qian Renxue wanted to laugh, but could not. She could only awkwardly glare at Ye Tian and scold, "Ye Tian, you've gone too far! You actually, actually treated Yue'er like a dog on a leash~"
"Ahem, don't talk nonsense. I didn't mean it that way. I was only giving you a demonstration."
Ye Tian coughed twice and hurriedly denied it.
"Well, then. Let's get back to business."
"Pfft, all right."
Qian Renxue couldn't help laughing a little and sat down on the steps with Ye Tian.
"So what does distance make the heart grow fonder mean?"
"It's simple."
Ye Tian smiled and explained, "When she gets used to your presence, then one day she can't see you anymore, she'll naturally start to miss you."
Hearing this.
Qian Renxue furrowed her delicate brows.
"But Mother doesn't even want to see me right now."
"But I want to see you!"
Ye Tian grabbed Qian Renxue by the shoulders and Solemnly Vowed.
"W-what?"
Qian Renxue was caught completely off guard by the flirtation and stared at Ye Tian in confusion.
A faint pink blush spread across her face.
"Oh, I mean, Teacher can't possibly stop you from coming to see me, right? Starting tomorrow, use seeing me as your excuse to come and go from Wisteria Residence! You'll be able to see her, and she'll also get to see you."
"In the name of seeing you?"
"That's right, see her in the name of seeing me!"
"Will that really work?"
"Of course!"
Ye Tian could not care less about anything else now. Nodding was the right answer!
"Habit is a terrifying thing. Once she gets used to seeing you, if she doesn't see you one day, she'll naturally feel as though something is missing from her heart."
"..."
Listening to Ye Tian's explanation.
Qian Renxue suddenly felt a little muddled.
Her head felt hot.
According to Ye Tian.
If she came to see Ye Tian every day, then whenever Ye Tian could not see her.
Would his heart also feel empty?
And what about herself?
Would she think of this guy Ye Tian every day too?
Under the sunset, Qian Renxue's noble and beautiful face became fiery and scorching hot. She could not help lowering her head.
Ye Tian's arm was already draped over her shoulder.
It looked as though he was holding her.
"In short, companionship is the most enduring confession. It more or less means that."
Ye Tian continued talking at length.
Without noticing the flush on Qian Renxue's face.
The one offering advice.
Had not realized that he himself would also become a player in this game.
"Companionship... is the most enduring confession."
Qian Renxue murmured, lightly biting her pink lips as she anxiously clutched the hem of her clothes.
She seemed to understand a little.
And what she understood was a little beyond the lesson.
