Endless Grievances With No One to Confide In
"I did drink it! But! But I only drank a little! Sis! You, you don't believe me?!"
Xu Xuanyu looked at Xu Qingying with disbelief. "You don't believe me! You can go ask Sister Yun!"
Xu Qingying sighed, extended her finger, and with the gathering of Spiritual Qi, used a mysterious technique to lightly touch Xu Xuanyu with her fingertip.
"See for yourself..."
An image appeared in Xu Xuanyu's mind.
This was exactly what Xu Qingying had seen and heard last night.
After reading this memory, Xu Xuanyu was struck dumb, muttering to himself in a frenzy, "Impossible! How could Yun-meimei..."
"Sister! Yun must have been forced into this!!"
"Xuanyu! Stop talking!"
Xu Qingying's feelings were extremely complicated.
Firstly, since everyone on that side was in agreement, even if she trusted her brother completely, there was nothing more she could do.
Moreover, she was able to prioritize the overall situation...
Xu Xuanyu looked at Xu Qingying and felt increasingly unfamiliar with Xu Qingying; his pupils were filled with shock.
"Sister! You..."
Just as Xu Xuanyu was about to say something, several figures suddenly entered the room.
The one who led the way in was Lin Qingxue.
Three people followed behind her.
They are the head of the Nangong Household, the head of the Huangfu Household, and Huangfu Qi!
"Xuanyu, how are you feeling?" The head of the Nangong Household asked with a concerned expression.
It was as if Xu Xuanyu was his son.
"Thank goodness you're alright, my dear nephew, otherwise it would have been a terrible sin!" The Huangfu Household head's expression was the same as the Nangong Household head's, but the next moment when he turned to look at Huangfu Qi, his expression turned cold, and he scolded, "You unfilial son! Why don't you come over here and apologize for your recklessness?!"
"Xuanyu, I'm sorry, I was reckless and didn't know what I was doing. I hope you can forgive me!"
Huangfu Qi pretended to be very serious and bowed deeply in front of Xu Xuanyu's bed.
When Xu Xuanyu saw Huangfu Qi, his face contorted with rage. "Huangfu Qi! I'll kill you!!!"
"Xuanyu!" Lin Qingxue said in a deep voice.
Xu Xuanyu was startled by Lin Qingxue's voice and was momentarily stunned. Then, he exchanged a glance with Huangfu Qi.
In that glance, he saw a deep sense of amusement and mockery flash in Huangfu Qi's eyes.
It's as if it's saying, "You're useless, what can you do to me?!"
Xu Xuanyu fell silent, glanced at Lin Qingxue, then at the three members of the Nangong Household, and finally looked at his sister.
When he looked into his sister's eyes, he noticed that she had her head down, seemingly deep in thought.
At that moment, he felt utterly helpless!
"Where is Sister Yun?! Where is Sister Yun?!" Xu Xuanyu suddenly realized something and quickly looked at the head of the Nangong Household.
As long as his sister Yun is here, it proves that what he said is true!
"Xuanyu, Yun'er was frightened last night and doesn't want to see you again, so she didn't come this time..." The Nangong Household head looked deeply at Xu Xuanyu, shook his head, and sighed, "You child, how could you let drinking cause trouble? But I won't make things difficult for you, let's just pretend nothing happened..."
"Oh, by the way, this is a letter Yun'er wrote to you. Take a look."
The Huangfu Household head said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, let's not disturb Xuanyu any longer. Let him rest well."
Their visit was merely a formality.
Xu Qingying took a deep breath and nodded.
As he left the room, Huangfu Qi turned and glanced at Xu Xuanyu one last time.
The two stared at each other for a moment, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
Xu Xuanyu clenched his fists and quickly opened the letter to read it.
It is indeed Nangong Yun's handwriting!
But the contents were completely unfamiliar to him!
"I was drunk? I forced you to elope? I..."
Xu Xuanyu's hands were too weak, and the letter fluttered to the ground. He lay listlessly on the bed, his eyes vacant.
Why...
Why...
Tears streamed from the corners of his eyes, falling silently onto the bed.
Seeing her younger brother like this, Xu Qingying felt distressed and clenched her fists. But just then, her master's instructions echoed in her mind.
Prioritizing the overall situation...
"Sis, are you sure you won't avenge me?"
Xu Xuanyu felt his vision blur and didn't turn to look at his sister. His voice was choked with sobs, like a child who had been bullied.
Xu Qingying remained silent.
Xu Xuanyu smiled, his eyes welling up with tears, which he then wiped away forcefully.
"If it were my second sister, she would definitely believe me... she would definitely avenge me..."
Xu Qingying looked intently at her younger brother, her eyes filled with an extremely complex expression.
"Xuanyu, it's not that I don't believe you, but for me, everything is very important right now. You... you have to be patient for a while and wait for me..."
Before Xu Qingying could finish speaking, Xu Xuanyu shook his head with a smile, and said dejectedly, "Sister, you can go out now. I want to be alone..."
Xu Xuanyu fell silent again.
After a long silence, Xu Qingying stood up and said, "I'll arrange for someone to take care of you. You should rest and recuperate at home during this time..."
Xu Xuanyu remained silent.
Xu Qingying walked outside.
Just then, Xu Xuanyu suddenly said something else.
"Zhengran at the Azure Robe Academy, right? Don't tell him about this; I don't want to affect him."
Xu Qingying gave a soft "hmm".
The room fell silent, eerily quiet.
Until Xu Xuanyu's choked voice could be heard again.
He remained lying in bed, then suddenly pounded his fist on the bed frame, roaring helplessly into the void.
He stopped only when he was completely exhausted.
At this moment, overwhelmed with endless grievances, he had no one to confide in. Holding the Sound Transmission Jade Slip, he hesitated for a long time before finally deciding not to put Spirit Stone into it.
Right now, he doesn't even have the ability to input Spiritual Qi into the Sound Transmission Jade Slip!
Only Spirit Stone can be used!
In the end, he couldn't resist throwing Spirit Stone into it.
"Second sister..."
In a courtyard far away in the Demon Domain.
It was just dawn here, the weather was clear, and the birds were singing merrily.
Xu Yunyi was tying Lu Miaomiao's hair; they would be going to the Demon Willow Academy together later.
"Huh? Why are you sending a telepathic message so early in the morning?"
"Auntie, is that Uncle sending a telepathic message?" Lu Miaomiao asked.
"Yes, I guess I've been missing you all," Xu Yunyi said with a smile.
"Hmph, it's no use for my uncle to miss us. I still dislike him a bit," Lu Miaomiao said.
"Oh dear, your uncle is just a bit foul-mouthed, but he's a good person. Miaomiao, don't be angry with him, okay?"
"Alright, for my aunt's sake, I'll reluctantly call him uncle today," Lu Miaomiao said.
"Okay, thank you for giving your aunt face, Miaomiao!" Xu Yunyi smiled. She was in a good mood recently because she was combing Lu Miaomiao's hair at the moment. So she infused her Spiritual Qi and played the sound Sound Transmission Jade Slip slip aloud.
"What's wrong, little brother?"
"Second sister... I miss you..."
Xu Xuanyu's voice rang out. It sounded a little hoarse, but he had controlled his emotions and there was nothing particularly unusual about it.
"Why are you being so mushy?" Xu Yunyi shook her head and smiled, then realized that her younger brother's telepathic message was probably about her husband, so she said, "I apologized to your husband for you last time, and he doesn't seem too angry with you. He treats you like a child. I've always said that your husband is very magnanimous, so you should be secretly happy."
"Oh, that's good..." Xu Xuanyu said.
"By the way, Miaomiao is right here. Is there anything you want to say to Miaomiao?" Xu Yunyi asked.
"Uncle." At this moment, Lu Miaomiao fulfilled her promise and shouted into the Sound Transmission Jade Slip slip.
Although the shout had a hint of arrogance, it was indeed shouted out.
Xu Xuanyu, who was over there, was stunned when he heard Lu Miaomiao's cute shout.
After Lu Miaomiao turned one year old, the little girl stopped calling him "uncle."
But it was because of that "uncle" that his lips twitched, and he couldn't hold back any longer.
"Did you hear that? Miaomiao finally called you 'uncle'! Remember to be nice to your brother-in-law from now on, and Miaomiao might completely accept you as her uncle," Xu Yunyi said with a smile.
"That's right! Humph! As long as you stop calling me 'Dad,' I can reluctantly keep calling you 'Uncle'!" Lu Miaomiao said, tilting her head slightly as she raised her chin.
Xu Xuanyu lay on the bed, unable to hold back any longer. Overwhelmed by endless grievances and complex emotions, he burst into tears.
Although he quickly covered his mouth, Xu Yunyi still heard his crying.
Xu Yunyi and Lu Miaomiao were both stunned for a moment, then exchanged a glance.
Xu Yunyi thought her younger brother was moved to tears, but then she changed her expression.
"Hey bro! Did something happen over there?"
