Stop crying, I'll give it to you, okay?

Chi Buwan had gotten used to its sudden disappearance during this period. She looked up at Su Ling Shuang, who was quietly tasting pastries, paused, and then suddenly felt a little emotional.

The last person he waited for like this was Xiao Wuli, but Xiao Wuli's reaction was much cuter than Su Ling Shuang's. His eyes sparkled, like a devoted little dog, full of joy.

As he thought about it, his brow relaxed slightly, and a gentle aura unconsciously emanated from his body.

Yesterday, Xiao Wuli's eyes were bright and clear, without any impurities, filled with pure admiration... Now he probably doesn't like him anymore, right?

But how did he get so thin?

I'll ask Yundan later.

A cool breeze blew by, and Chi Buwan shivered. He bent down and took out a black fox cloak from his storage ring, putting it on and wrapping himself up tightly.

The temperature drops quickly in winter.

"Sizzle—!"

Is it too late?

He stared at the exposed skin at his collar for two seconds, then pulled his black fox cloak back up to cover it, and used a spell to change his clothes.

Only then did he realize something was wrong.

What's going on? Has Xiao Wuli arrived?

Chi Buwan turned around and searched carefully, but there wasn't even a trace of an ant, let alone Xiao Wuli.

If 337 were conscious at this moment, it would definitely scream—[Host!! Xiao Wuli, that male ghost, is right next to you, watching you!!!]

Chi Buwan withdrew his gaze, pondered for a moment, rolled up his sleeves, then looked up at Su Ling Shuang, who had almost finished eating, and got up to walk towards her.

Halfway there, he suddenly stopped and turned around to look back, only to find that there was no one behind him.

He frowned slightly, and after a long while, he turned away and continued walking forward.

"Are you full?" Chi Buwan asked Su Ling Shuang.

Su Ling Shuang nodded.

Chi Buwan watched her meditate and said, "Recall what I just said. Concentrate and follow my breath."

Su Ling Shuang: "Mm."

Chi Buwan lightly touched her brow with his fingertip, and a surge of spiritual energy entered, flowing along her meridians to her dantian.

Without the guidance of the old thing in the ring, Su Ling Shuang did everything himself, teaching him word by word. Midway through, he put away his black fox cloak, only to find that the weather was getting colder and colder, and even the big mink coat he was wearing wasn't warm enough.

Looking at Su Ling Shuang's thin coat, Chi Bu Wan asked, "Are you cold? Do you want to put on another layer?"

Su Ling Shuang shook her head.

Xiao Wuli, standing to the side, was stunned. His long eyelashes trembled as he looked at his gentle master in front of him. His dark eyes slowly changed from their original gloom to pitiful and aggrieved, and his nose tingled with tears.

His master wasn't only kind to him.

Eating a hearty meal before his breakthrough was not a sign of favoritism; he could also give others a lot of Foundation Strengthening Pills; and his master would help other disciples break through their cultivation levels. But... why didn't his master say so much to him when he broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage?

Is it because he's not good-looking? Has Master ignored me lately because he's lost weight and therefore looks even worse?

Besides, he's not a woman, so is that why Master is distancing himself from her?

Xiao Wuli lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on the lower half of the body.

Old man: ..........

Is this kid going to cut off his third leg?

"Kid, don't do anything foolish."

Xiao Wuli: [My master doesn't like men.]

The old man raised his voice: "But he never said he'd like eunuchs!"

Xiao Wuli remained silent.

Old man:........

Chi Buwan stopped, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at Su Ling Shuang, whose brows were slightly furrowed as she experienced the pain of a breakthrough and whose face was pale. He was slightly stunned.

It took him a while to realize that this was the normal reaction when breaking through cultivation level.

Xiao Wuli was too awesome, making him momentarily forget that breaking through cultivation levels was just as painful.

He got up and walked to Su Ling Shuang's side, gently pressing his fingertips on her wrist to guide her pulse. His expression was serious as he guided the disordered spiritual energy in her body, but he was worried that she wouldn't be able to break through and dared not do too much. A thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Let's leave this kind of work to Yun Dan or Xiao Wuli in the future.

Once he had finally calmed down, he breathed a long sigh of relief, sat back down at the stone table, and paused, looking at the teacup in front of him that was already filled with steaming hot tea.

?

When did he collapse?

Forget it.

Chi Buwan picked it up and took two sips.

Seeing this, Xiao Wuli, who was standing to the side, curled her fingertips slightly and subconsciously raised her hand to wipe the thin layer of sweat from his forehead.

He paused, his nose twitched, and he caught a familiar scent.

Xiao Wuli?

He subconsciously turned his head, his gaze fixed on a certain spot beside him, and reached out to touch it, but grasped nothing.

He looked at the suspicious area from top to bottom.

Xiao Wuli held his breath, staring intently at those peach blossom eyes brimming with moisture, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

Chi Buwan calmly withdrew his gaze, but inside he was screaming in frustration.

Finish the calf!

The taste, the gaze!

Who else could it be but Xiao Wuli?

Suddenly, everything went black.

Dude, there are countless beautiful women in the world, why do you keep chasing after a straight guy like me?

Hearing a sound, he turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Su Ling Shuang had successfully broken through.

He placed the teacup on the stone table, got up and walked over, then placed a large pile of Qi-strengthening pills in front of her, saying, "Don't rush into cultivation after your breakthrough; first stabilize your spiritual energy."

A rare smile of pleasure appeared on Su Ling Shuang's usually expressionless face. She nodded and added one more word: "Mm."

"I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now." With that, Chi Buwan took off running.

The next second, Xiao Wuli appeared on the spot, his dark eyes looking at her. Su Ling Shuang saw him, but her expression remained unchanged.

Xiao Wuli withdrew his gaze, lowered his head, and looked at the teacup his master had just drunk from. After a while, he reached out and took the teacup in his hand. His fingertips trembled slightly. He suppressed his excitement and turned to leave. Only after he was out of Su Ling Shuang's sight did he dare to gently touch the rim of the cup where his master's lips had touched.

After a while, he raised his hand and drank the rest of the tea from the rim of the cup his master had placed against his skin.
