Mu Yunsheng - Part One! Thanks to [Changhuan Sect of Huaibei Slope] for the character summon!
Xu Changqing's sudden move plunged the reception hall into dead silence.
Qin Ye's eyes widened. He nearly failed to steady the teacup in his hand, his face filled with disbelief.
The Xu Changqing he knew had always been shrewd and composed. Even before elders of the Immortal Sect, he carried himself with ease. Yet now, he was actually acting cute toward Eldest Senior Sister.
The contrast was too shocking for him to adapt to.
Mu Ning's little mouth fell open, her eyes brimming with shock. Then she leaned close to Qin Ye's ear and muttered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Third Senior Brother, shouldn't I be the one acting cute?
Sixth Junior Brother actually stole my job!"
There was surprise in her voice, along with helpless amusement.
But the most shocked person was none other than Eldest Senior Sister, Bei Qingtang.
Feeling him gently tug at her sleeve, an unnatural flush suddenly rose on her cool cheeks, and her gaze turned strange.
In all her life, no man had ever dared to act cute toward her.
That strange feeling in her heart was like a stone tossed into a lake, sending ripples spreading outward.
She froze for a moment, then came back to herself and gently pulled free of the sleeve he held. Avoiding Xu Changqing's expectant gaze, she said somewhat awkwardly, "Let go first... I'll think about it."
Seeing that she had not refused, Xu Changqing's eyes immediately lit up. Grinning like a child, he said, "Thank you, Eldest Senior Sister!"
Qin Ye and Mu Ning exchanged a glance, each seeing the same feeling in the other's eyes: they had lived long enough to see something truly unheard of.
The group sat for a while longer, chatting idly about various trifles on Azurewood Peak.
