One of my fairy-like friends

No wonder, the Supreme Elder had said before that she was waiting for him to come to her, but after waiting for so long, Ming Yan still hasn't come... If the positions were reversed, it's normal for Ming Yan to think that the Supreme Elder is angry.

"Senior brother, it seems Master is angry with you. He's been quite unhappy these past few days whenever I've talked about you." Liu Mengli secretly transmitted her voice to Ming Yan. "Senior brother, did you offend the Supreme Elder somewhere? Tell me, and I'll put in a good word for you."

This little girl... Mingyan felt a warmth in his heart. He replied, "I promised her I would come to see her, but I've been a bit busy lately, so... it's normal for your master to feel angry because I stood her up."

"Is that so?" Liu Mengli blinked. She sensed something strange. Why was Master angry because Senior Brother stood her up? Did Senior Brother mean a lot to Master?

Although Master valued Senior Brother quite a bit before, it doesn't seem to have reached this level.

Could it be that the relationship between Master and Senior Brother has secretly improved?

"Aunt Yue..." Mingyan looked at Yue Qingyou's back and called out softly, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting..."

Apologize first to put yourself in an unassailable position.

Chapter 256 Isn't this a bit inappropriate?

Hearing Ming Yan's straightforward apology, Yue Qingyou indeed didn't continue to turn her back to him. She turned around, seemingly somewhat surprised, "Yan'er? When did you arrive?"

Her behavior made it seem as if she hadn't known Mingyan had arrived at all.

Liu Mengli blinked, thinking this was too unbelievable. How could her master only find out that her senior brother had arrived? Although the doors of the Huang family had the ability to block information on both sides, her master would have been able to find out once her senior brother came in. At such close range, if her master couldn't find out, then what kind of person was she to greet him?

However, Mingyan clearly didn't care about any of that. He secretly smiled to himself, knowing that Yue Qingyou was giving him and herself a way out, but he still looked apologetic, "I'm sorry, Aunt Yue..."

"It's okay, I know you're busy." Yue Qingyou smiled slightly, seemingly not minding at all that Ming Yan took so long to come to see her. If Liu Mengli hadn't secretly told Ming Yan beforehand that Yue Qingyou was angry, Ming Yan might have actually been fooled by Yue Qingyou.

Ming Yan looked at Liu Mengli and said, "Junior sister, why don't you go out for a bit? I have something I want to talk to your master about."

"Huh? Do you want me to leave?" Liu Mengli pointed to herself with her jade finger, blinked, and was a little confused. She didn't know why she had to leave when her master was talking to her senior brother.

Yue Qingyou looked at Liu Mengli and nodded slightly. Upon seeing this, Liu Mengli pouted and reluctantly turned and walked out.

After Liu Mengli left, Ming Yan closed the door behind him.

The reason for letting Liu Mengli leave was simple: Yue Qingyou didn't seem to have any plans to reveal her relationship with Mingyan yet. Of course, they didn't have any relationship now, but Mingyan was pursuing her after all.

In addition, with Liu Mengli, his disciple, present, there were many things that were difficult to say. This was true for Yue Qingyou, and it was also true for Ming Yan.

So even though Liu Mengli has now become Mingyan's close confidante, Mingyan still has to let his junior sister leave first.

“Aunt Yue…” Mingyan moved closer.

"So, you told me last time that you would be well-prepared when you came to see me next time," Yue Qingyou said with a smile as she observed Ming Yan. "Can I expect some surprises from you?"

Mingyan sighed softly, "I originally wanted to give Aunt Yue a gift, but after learning a lot about her, I found that she didn't seem to have any particular interests, so I gave up on the idea."

"So, you weren't 'well-prepared' enough to come see me this time?" Yue Qingyou looked at Ming Yan with a half-smile.

"That's not entirely true." Ming Yan smiled and shook his head. He took out a small glass bottle. Yue Qingyou was a little surprised. She really thought that Ming Yan was dead and had come to her with a stiff upper lip.

"This is...?"

“This is a product from a planet my sister once visited, a place called Earth,” Mingyan said with a smile. “She brought back many things from there, and this is one of them. Its name is perfume.”

"Perfume?" Yue Qingyou tilted her head. "Does it live up to its name?"

"It lives up to its name," Mingyan said with a smile. "However, it wasn't brought directly from Earth; we brought back the method of making it. This bottle is a perfume made here."

"So...did you do it, or did your sister do it?" Yue Qingyou tilted her head and asked.

"I made it." Mingyan lied. He had been too busy to make perfume lately. His sister made it herself. But he couldn't be honest now. There would be plenty of opportunities to be honest later. It wouldn't make a difference if he did it this time.

Yue Qingyou looked at the small glass bottle, and Mingyan handed the perfume to her. She hesitated for a moment, then took it.

“This is the first perfume I’ve ever made. I hope Aunt Yue will like it.” Mingyan smiled and said, “Perfume is essentially used to add fragrance and cover up bad smells, but for Aunt Yue, covering up bad smells is completely unnecessary, so it only serves to add fragrance.”

The rest of Mingyan’s words were irrelevant to Yue Qingyou, but the first sentence touched her slightly. This was the first bottle of perfume that Mingyan had made.

"Didn't you make one for your master too?" Yue Qingyou asked with a smile, holding the perfume bottle.

"I haven't had time yet," Mingyan smiled slightly, without saying anything more.

This also confirms that Mingyan had the idea of ​​giving Yue Wuxia perfume. The perfume in his hand would then have a different meaning. Giving it to her alone might not necessarily mean anything, since it is a novel item. But since he was going to give it to Yue Wuxia, then in Mingyan's opinion, it might be a very worthwhile gift.

She looked down at the perfume bottle in her hand. The liquid inside was a pale blue color, very similar to Feng Lingyueying's uniform.

She opened it and took a sniff. She found the fragrance inside to be delightful—subtle, yet lingering around her nose, bringing her joy...

This surprised Yue Qingyou somewhat. She had smelled many fragrant things, but this perfume had a very unique scent...it was quite intoxicating...

She stared at the perfume bottle for a while, then smiled slightly, "I'm very satisfied with this gift, so I'll accept it."

“Giving perfume as a gift on Earth signifies that I have feelings for you. Accepting it means that Aunt Yue has accepted my feelings,” Mingyan said with a smile. “Of course, Aunt Yue is unaware of this, so there’s no need to worry about it.”

“If you really wanted me to not care, you wouldn’t have said it now.” Yue Qingyou rolled her eyes at Ming Yan, but then smiled and said, “However, I’m happy to accept your affection for me.”

Mingyan chuckled, "It seems my preparations have satisfied Aunt Yue?"

"Hmm...you pass." Yue Qingyou didn't really expect Ming Yan to satisfy her, after all, he already had so many women around him, he was bound to be overwhelmed, so she was quite tolerant of him. But she was really quite satisfied and liked the perfume...

It seems Mingyan really put in a lot of effort; this was a gift from another star system...

Yue Qingyou looked at the perfume bottle in her hand, reluctantly putting it away, and then looked at Ming Yan, "So, Yan'er, how do you plan to pursue me?"

"Aunt Yue's directness makes me a little embarrassed," Mingyan said, scratching his head.

"You're still shy?" Yue Qingyou chuckled. "Can't you just be direct?"

"This...this isn't a good idea, is it?"

"What's wrong with that? Well, I'm in a pretty good mood right now, it would be a waste if you didn't do something, wouldn't it? You don't seem like the type to be so timid, do you?"

"...Aunt Yue, are you sure?" Mingyan asked tentatively.

"Hurry up, you gave me a gift, you should take action now." Yue Qingyou nodded.

Mingyan blinked, then walked up and pulled Yue Qingyou into his arms.

Chapter 257 Aunt Yue, who couldn't wait

Although Mingyan's actions did not frighten Yue Qingyou, they still gave her a slight surprise, causing her delicate body to stiffen slightly.

However, she quickly realized what was happening, and her body went limp.

After all, it was she who made Mingyan do something, and she even said he was cowardly because he didn't do anything. Now that Mingyan has actually done something, is she going to blame him?

After she relaxed, she felt Mingyan's strong embrace, and her stunning face flushed slightly, feeling hot.

Whenever an ambiguous relationship developed between her and Mingyan, she would involuntarily think of the generational difference between them.

This feeling was so shameful that Yue Qingyou found it difficult to speak of it.

Despite constantly reminding herself that seniority didn't matter, that Mingyan wouldn't care about seniority at all, and that if we really went by seniority, Mingyan was actually many generations older than her, so even if it were an older man dating a younger woman, it would be Mingyan dating the younger woman...

Mingyan found it somewhat amusing that Yue Qingyou did not object.

The Supreme Elder is really interesting. He told Mingyan to pursue her, but she felt that she herself was actually a little impatient.

How to describe Yue Qingyou's state of mind? She was probably a little lost and expectant, wanting to see what Mingyan would do, not because she liked Mingyan that much...

Yue Qingyou must have some feelings for him, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to the marriage. But how to double those feelings is something Mingyan needs to work on himself.

Mingyan released Yue Qingyou, but did not hold her for long.

Yue Qingyou looked at Ming Yan, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "I want to ask you some questions."

"Aunt Yue, just say it." Mingyan smiled slightly.

"If, if the two of us really get together, what do you plan to tell Mengli?" Yue Qingyou looked at Mingyan with a serious expression.

"How should we tell Mengli?" Mingyan was somewhat surprised, not expecting Yue Qingyou to ask this question.

"Or are you planning not to tell Mengli?" Yue Qingyou continued to ask.

“Of course we should just tell Mengli directly. There’s no need to hide it, and we can’t hide it anyway.” Mingyan shook his head. “Or does Aunt Yue think it’s shameful for Mengli to know?”

Yue Qingyou sighed softly, "You should know very well that Mengli likes you very much."

“I know.” Mingyan nodded. “But Mengli should be aware of my relationships with other people by now… I don’t know how far my junior sister and I can go, but if she hasn’t changed her mind, she will definitely accept this. So Aunt Yue doesn’t need to worry about Mengli.”

"..." Yue Qingyou remained silent. Although she said not to worry about it, she knew very well that her disciple liked Ming Yan, and yet she had beaten him to it...

Even though there's only a slight chance that things will work out between him and Mingyan, if it actually happens, he'll truly be letting his disciple down...

Sigh, now is not the time to think about these things... Yue Qingyou put away her chaotic thoughts and said, "Are you planning to stay in the Huang family like this indefinitely, and not go back to Fengling Yueying?"

“There’s no such idea at the moment. Does the Supreme Elder want to go back? Actually, there’s no need to worry about Feng Lingyueying,” Mingyan said, spreading his hands.

“I know, I know your sister will help keep an eye on Feng Lingyueying, but that’s not what I care about… What I care about is your future. Right now, do you consider yourself a member of the Huang family, or do you consider yourself Feng Lingyueying’s holy son?” Yue Qingyou shook her head, interrupting Ming Yan who wanted to say something more.

"Can't they all be the same?" Mingyan asked curiously.

"..." Yue Qingyou smiled helplessly, "You really are greedy..."

Mingyan laughed and said, "I thought Aunt Yue already knew this."

"..." Yue Qingyou's face flushed slightly. "Yes, if you weren't greedy, how could you have so many women around you... Sometimes I really don't understand, what is the purpose of your cultivation... Is it to pursue the ultimate Dao, or is it for women..."

Ming Yan chuckled, “Aunt Yue seems to have some misunderstanding about me. Of course I pursue the ultimate Dao, but the purpose of proving the Dao is not to pursue my own limit, but to save my mother.”

"Hasn't your mother already come out?" Yue Qingyou, who had already met Ming Huiyin, asked with some surprise.

“My mother’s situation is very complicated. She is not the complete person she is now.” Mingyan shook his head. “Only when I become emperor can I truly save her.”

"..." Yue Qingyou was silent for a while, then said, "I'm worried about you leaving Feng Lingyueying."

“I will not leave Fengling Yueying, because Master is here, Senior Sister is here, Junior Sister is here, and the Supreme Elder is here as well.” Ming Yan shook his head. “Although I have only been with Fengling Yueying for a few years, there are too many people here who are extremely important to me. How could I leave?”

Hearing Mingyan mention Yue Wuxia, Yue Qingying, and even Liu Mengli, Yue Qingyou felt a pang of disappointment. It seemed her own name hadn't been mentioned? Yet, her name appeared last... A slight smile involuntarily crept onto Yue Qingyou's lips...

"But it seems there are many other people who are very important to you as well?" Yue Qingyou tilted her head. "Would you do this for them..."

“That’s why I say I’m both the Holy Son of Feng Ling Yue Ying and a member of the Huang family. If necessary, I wouldn’t mind taking on the name of Yao Chi.” Ming Yan smiled slightly. “I’ve always wanted it all.”

When Yue Qingyou was interrupted and heard Ming Yan's response, she felt both helpless and amused.

How can someone justify their greed so readily? And yet, she can't even get angry...

Yue Qingyou is ultimately a member of Fengling Yueying, and she hopes that Mingyan can succeed her. However, Mingyan's growth has been terrifying. Mingyan is currently staying in Fengling Yueying only because of people like them. Will Mingyan still stay in Fengling Yueying in the future?

Perhaps, as he said, he won't leave...

Yue Qingyou sighed softly. Actually, she didn't want any entanglement of interests between herself and Mingyan, just like this matter. She didn't really want to say that she deliberately got close to Mingyan to make him stay; she hoped their relationship could be pure, but in reality, it was impossible to be that pure...
