These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

"But Senior Sister's is so big..."

Wei Tu rubbed his temples.

That old man isn't dead yet, and things are still largely the same, proceeding according to the course of his previous life...

We absolutely cannot slack off.

Wei Tu raised his head and looked at the gloomy clouds.

"But Senior Sister is so young..."

"Senior brother~~"

Before Wei Tu could fully and deeply reflect on his mistakes, a light and cheerful voice came from afar.

The boy quickly adjusted his expression and turned around.

Then I saw a girl in a maroon dress walking briskly across the mud.

Her bright eyes and the smile on her beautiful face made it seem as if autumn itself was turning into spring.

Wei Tu wanted to open his arms and wait for her to rush into his embrace, just like in the scene deep in his memory.

But it seems that it's not possible to do that right now.

Some things are bound to happen sooner or later, and that's completely different from them happening earlier.

Wei Tu knows that she is currently enjoying the period before this flower blooms, and she will patiently wait for its full bloom.

The girl's arms swayed at her sides like a fluttering butterfly, her fists slightly clenched and raised.

She stopped only when she reached Wei Tu, lowered her hands, and her breathing was still a little rapid, with a noticeable flush on her cheeks.

"Junior sister, what brings you here?"

Wei Tu looked at her slightly disheveled appearance, which did not detract from her beauty, and asked with a smile.

Seeing the boy smile made Su Mi's heart race uncontrollably.

It wasn't like this when I was little... ever since my senior brother started getting more and more handsome...

She composed herself and smiled playfully.

"Does Senior Brother not want me to come? Or is Senior Brother hiding other women here?"

The little girl squinted as she looked Wei Tu up and down.

Wei Tu seemed completely unfazed, and said with a smile, "You can't say things like that. There's only Elder Mu here, and she has a bad temper. Be careful, she might punish you with a beating."

Su Mi pouted.

"If anyone should be punished, it should be my senior brother. What kind of logic is it to punish me? I won't let him be punished."

Su Mi smiled and tiptoed, trying to subconsciously close the distance between them, but then she caught a faint, almost imperceptible fragrance.

So Wei Tu watched as Su Yan's charming smile changed little by little.

She moved closer to his embrace and twitched her nose.

Then he frowned and looked at Wei Tu.

"Whose scent is this... It's neither floral nor herbal..."

Uh… Wei Tu didn’t expect that this girl could also clearly perceive his senior sister’s elegant fragrance, and he was instantly a little embarrassed.

"Ah...would you believe me if I said this is my senior brother's body scent?"

Which woman was it?

The girl's eyes suddenly turned cold, and her entire demeanor changed, as if the weather had changed... Wait, it seems like it's a cloudy day today.

Wei Tu coughed and carefully pulled the girl's arm.

I sat down right by the pool.

"I cleaned Elder Mu's room today, so there's bound to be a lingering smell..."

Su Mi looked at Wei Tu with suspicion.

"What? You want me to clean her room?"

"Elder Mu is very lazy. He only does alchemy, eats, and sleeps. Besides, Senior Brother is currently living under someone else's roof, so it's normal for him to do some small tasks. Don't overthink it."

Su Mi snorted and gently took off her shoes, ignoring the boy beside her, and dipped her fair feet into the pool water, gently swaying them.

The pond water was very clear, and there were several beautiful carp in it.

But ever since Su Mi's feet appeared in the water, even the carp seem less appealing.

Wei Tu sat down next to the girl.

Listen to the joyful, subtle sound of water splashing underfoot.

He enjoyed the tranquility of the moment. Neither of them spoke until the girl seemed to grow tired of it and gently pulled her feet back.

But it seems there's nothing to wipe your feet with.

So he looked at Wei Tu in a huff.

"Wipe it off for me."

Wei Tu looked at Su Mi calmly.

"Who are you calling? There's no address at all?"

"Oh, senior brother~ wipe my feet for me, it's so hard to dry them in this weather."

This kind of thing might be considered improper in society, but actually, the two of them often did this when they were younger.

The boys and girls who liked to slack off were always helped by Wei Tu to clean the girl's feet.

Looking at the still dripping, fair feet, Wei Tu reached out and pulled the other person's legs directly into his arms.

"ah……"

Su Mi's slight gasp, caught off guard, was probably due to not expecting the other party's movement to be so exaggerated.

He simply lifted both legs up.

Before tucking the delicate soles of her feet into her lower abdomen, Wei Tu didn't rush to wipe them but instead smiled and reached out to stroke the other person's smooth calves.

"It's a bit damp here too."

Su Mi, her face flushed, braced herself with her hands beside her, her expression pale as she turned her head to find something to lean on.

"No... Senior brother is playing tricks on me..."

"I was talking about the calves... Why is it my senior brother who's up to no good?"

The boy's ambiguous smile made Su Mi feel breathless.

She glanced at Wei Tu shyly.

"My senior brother has changed. I can no longer play in the water in front of him."

Wei Tu pinched the other person's calf as they tried to pull it back.

He makes the girl unable to move, yet she's reluctant to exert too much force; in front of him, resisting seems like a very difficult thing.

Hasn't he realized that he's not a little girl anymore, and that he can feel shy about it...?

They really have no compassion for people...

Unexpectedly, Wei Tu gently began wiping her feet.

Looking at the girl's fair and delicate feet, Wei Tu didn't mind that his hands touched them, and even held them in his palm.

A heartfelt sentiment.

"Su Mi, please forgive my lack of words, because I really can't think of any more eloquent phrases to praise you."

The girl blushed and didn't dare to look the boy in the eye.

"Who...who told you to say that? You're just making fun of people."

Wei Tu gently pressed on the girl's soles, and the heat from it almost made Su Mi unable to support her body. She felt the burning sensation from the soles of her feet spread all the way up, even scalding her heart.

The girl squinted her misty eyes and unconsciously bit her lower lip, which resembled a cherry blossom petal.

Wei Tu said in a low voice.

"If this is just teasing, I'll keep teasing you, Junior Sister, for a very long time, maybe even for the rest of my life. Are you scared, Junior Sister?"

Su Mi raised her head defiantly, but the blush had spread all the way to her neck. Watching Wei Tu gently massage her toes, not to play with them, a tender feeling welled up from the bottom of her heart.

Thinking of the past, thinking of him now, and the future... I want to do even more shameless things with him... The thought brought forth the true words in my heart.

"Who doesn't know how to play pranks... I'll play pranks on my senior brother just as well!"

"Really? Senior brother is actually looking forward to it."

"Hey, senior brother's a pervert~ Ouch, stop rubbing, it tickles... Hehe... Let go..."

-

"Is this all you've done?"

The somber sound seemed to echo through the empty Baoguang Hall.

In the shadows of the Baoguang Hall, where no candles were lit, a young woman knelt respectfully, her hand adorned with a jade thumb ring.

"Please calm down, Ancestor... I have considered this matter carefully."

"Considerations?! Your considerations are to put a seventeen-year-old piece of trash who hasn't even reached the Fusion Realm on the list? This is a disgrace to the Yuanjian Sect! Or is it for your own selfish desires? Heh... I heard that although that kid is weak, he is extremely handsome. Could it be... that you have designs on him?"

"Ran Xinxue, oh Ran Xinxue, after you've done this for me, you'll have no shortage of good men to grovel before you. Yet now you're wasting your time on this kind of thing; you truly can't shake your ingrained baseness!"

Ran Xinxue lowered her head, her face somewhat embarrassed.

But she still insisted on speaking.

"No, that's not true... Ancestor, please believe your disciple. He absolutely did not do it for personal gain. In fact, I think it was no accident that he was able to defeat Li Hanyang. He must have been hiding his strength. Sure enough, I recently saw him... He has already reached the third level of the Fusion Realm."

"so what?"

The other person's voice was devoid of any emotion, neither joy nor sorrow.

Ran Xinxue spoke very quickly.
