Fairy, please have some self-respect. I am not the reincarnation of your deceased husband.

Chapter 127 Night Raid Part 2, The Annoying Little Thing

"Senior sister is in seclusion?"

Chen Lianshu was quite surprised.

He had guessed that Mu Qianxue would be in seclusion for some time, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon, without even coming to tell him.

Why didn't you call me?

She doesn't want to disturb your rest.

Pei Wanyun's expression remained calm, but as she recalled the scene of seeing Mu Qianxue off, a hint of melancholy crept into her voice.

"That girl has always been like that; once she makes a decision, she never delays."

She took a sip of the spiritual tea, her gaze fixed on the tea leaves floating in the cup, as if talking to herself, or perhaps confiding in someone: "Qianxue—she always keeps everything to herself."

"————"

Chen Lianshu didn't reply, but just listened quietly.

The atmosphere at this moment is just right.

The only one who ruined the atmosphere was Su Jiu'er.

The little one was busy having a great time, still rubbing against her husband, trying her best to leave her scent on him.

"Waaah!"

Finally, the task was completed. Su Jiu'er gave a satisfied hum, raised her little head, and settled down obediently in her husband's arms.

The two men couldn't help but chuckle at her adorable appearance.

What a lively character!

Chen Lianshu gently rubbed her head, then turned to Pei Wanyun: "Did Senior Sister give me any instructions?"

"Of course there are."

Pei Wanyun put down her teacup, turned slightly to the side, and smiled as before: "She entrusted you to me, asking me to take good care of you and not let you suffer any grievances."

"Take good care of yourself, focus on your cultivation, and don't worry about her."

She added almost all of these words herself.

That girl is shy and has a deep mind; how could she possibly say such a thing to someone's face?

Moreover, these are words that are so beneficial to her.

Pei Wanyun paused, then suddenly changed the subject, asking quite abruptly, "Lian Shu, what do you think of your senior sister?"

"?"

Chen Lianshu was slightly taken aback.

However, the answer was obvious, and he almost blurted it out.

"My senior sister has been very good to me. She has taken good care of me since I entered the outer sect."

"Is it just taking care of them?"

Pei Wanyun spoke softly, her gaze fixed on him, as if guiding him or reminding him of something.

The atmosphere became subtle.

Even Su Jiu'er and Xiao Xueyan quieted down, waiting for Chen Lianshu's answer.

""

Chen Lianshu remained silent for a moment, not giving a direct answer, but instead throwing the question back at him: "Why does Master ask that?"

Pei Wanyun brushed it off with a smile, shook her head, and said casually, "It's nothing, I was just asking."

After saying that, she picked up the teacup again, but put it down just as she touched it to her lips. Then she felt it was inappropriate and picked it up again.

She, who was usually calm and gentle, seemed a little uneasy and quite unnatural at this moment.

"Pity the Book".

"Um."

"I have something to tell you."

"Please speak, Master."

Pei Wanyun considered for a moment, then asked, "Would you mind coming with me to Lingjian Peak tomorrow?"

"Can--"

Chen Lianshu agreed without hesitation, but was still somewhat curious: "I wonder what business Master has going to Spirit Sword Peak for?"

"Peak Master Qi is an old friend of mine. She has been wanting to meet me, her newly accepted disciple, ever since I mentioned you."

Pei Wanyun naturally wouldn't say that Qi Yuan was specifically there to help her vet the candidates.

However, she was not worried.

After all, Qi Yuan has always been her biggest supporter.

In her memory, it was the other person who helped her get together with them.

"I see."

Chen Lianshu nodded in understanding.

And this conversation lasted for an entire day.

Pei Wanyun glanced at the sky outside the window. Although she was reluctant, she still spoke.

After all, her husband was going to Qi Yuan's place with her tomorrow and needed to rest well.

"It's getting late."

She stood up and straightened her sleeves: "You should get some rest too."

"Um."

Chen Lianshu responded and stood up, holding Su Jiu'er: "Then this disciple will go back first."

"Go."

Pei Wanyun nodded and saw him to the door.

She wanted to watch her go a little longer, but Su Jiu'er clung tightly to Chen Lianshu's neck, spread her nine tails, and firmly blocked her view.

She chuckled helplessly and eventually returned to her dormitory.

Upon entering the side hall, Su Jiu'er became excited.

This is my husband's room.

The little one jumped down from her husband's arms and wandered around the palace, sniffing and smelling everything, like a lion surveying its territory.

She soon noticed the nest in the corner.

She had initially thought it was prepared for her, but she quickly realized that her husband didn't know her before entering the secret realm.

I leaned closer and took a sniff; sure enough, it was the lazy scent of a certain silly cat.

"snort!"

With a soft snort, she jumped onto the bed.

She excitedly rolled around on it, and after rolling around enough, she burrowed into the blankets and curled up a bit more.

Finally, it poked its head out and squinted its eyes contentedly.

Seeing the little one's excited and adorable appearance, Chen Lianshu couldn't help but chuckle: "So happy?"

"Waaaaah!"

Su Jiu'er nodded vigorously.

The reason she doesn't transform into human form is because she wants to exploit an information gap—

Taking advantage of Pei Wanyun's perception of her as just an ordinary spirit pet, she would revert to human form at night to cultivate a relationship with her husband.

This is a trick that works every time she tries.

Aside from suffering a loss at Shen Yueli's hands, he has never failed.

At least not on Mu Qianxue's side.

Noticing that the little guy was reluctant to leave, Chen Lianshu glanced around and finally landed on the nest that originally belonged to Xueyan.

Obviously, we can't let Jiu'er stay there.

Since that's the case, we have no choice but to go along with the little one.

After all, they were the same way in the secret realm.

"alright."

Chen Lianshu rubbed Su Jiu'er's head, lifted her out of the quilt, placed her beside the pillow, and covered her with the quilt.

"It's time to rest."

"We're going to Spirit Sword Peak tomorrow."

"Waaah—"

Although Su Jiu'er was somewhat unwilling, she still obediently lay down on the pillow.

Of course, she also had her own little plan: after her husband turned off the lights, she would revert to human form and lie down with him, giving him a big surprise!

However, Chen Lianshu did not immediately undress and lie down. Instead, he lit the incense burner next to him and introduced it to the little fox, saying, "This incense has the effect of calming the mind and soothing the soul, which helps with sleep."

But Su Jiu'er nodded absentmindedly, her mind preoccupied with how to surprise her husband.

This time, the Calamity Bell was stored in the storage space and could not be used.

Therefore, Chen Lianshu also gradually felt sleepy.

I must say, this fragrance is indeed very effective.

He blew out the lamp, undressed, and lay down.

"Waaah—"

For some reason, after lighting the incense, Su Jiu'er felt increasingly sleepy.

She had already rested and should have been full of energy, ready to cling to her husband all night and enjoy his embrace.

How could this be—

Before long, before her husband could even get close, she had already fallen into a deep sleep.

However, before losing consciousness, she wrapped her tail around his wrist before closing her eyes in peace.

Outside the side hall.

After calculating the exact time, a figure in moonlight waited patiently for a while longer.

Once the breathing of the person and the fox on the bed had become even, he gently pushed open the door.
