Chapter 2517 Side Story 21: Wait
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
The entire night was silent.
The second day, Lady Shiyi and Lady Shi’er came to Xiao Ba’s courtyard. They were stunned when they saw Xiao Ba, who kept stopping in her tracks.
“Eighth Sister, what’s the matter?”
The two ladies rapidly went forward and saw that one of Xiao Ba’s feet was bare, and it was wrapped.
Xiao Ba said, “Quick, help me to the side to rest.”
Lady Shiyi and Lady Shi’er followed her instructions and helped her to the lounge chair in the courtyard.
After lying down, Xiao Ba sighed. “Sigh…”
“Eighth Sister, what’s the matter? Why do you look so tired?” asked Lady Shi’er rather worriedly.
Xiao Ba waved her hands weakly. “Nothing much. My heart is tired.”
Lady Shiyi and Lady Shi’er exchanged glances. Eighth Sister’s appearance is rare…
“Eighth Sister, weren’t you fine yesterday? How did you get injured?” asked Lady Shiyi as she sat beside her.
Xiao Ba sighed deeply. “I accidentally hit it.”
Lady Shi’er saw the patches of black underneath Xiao Ba’s eyes, as if she did not sleep well. Originally, she wanted to ask further, but seeing the latter’s appearance, she did not know how to initiate the question and changed the topic instead. “Eighth Sister, I brought some phoenix-butterfly flowers for you.”
Xiao Ba looked to the side and saw blossomed flowers in the basket. They were vibrant and looked very pleasant.
She lazily acknowledged it. “Thank you, Sister Shiyi, Sister Shi’er.”
Then, she closed her eyes as if she were very tired and also as if she were troubled by something.
Lady Shiyi and her twin exchanged glances and saw the confusion in each other’s eyes. Eighth Sister usually cares about such items the most. Now, for some reason, she can’t be bothered to look at it?
Lady Shiyi hesitated for a moment before asking, “Eighth Sister, why… are you troubled?”
After a temporary pause, Xiao Ba widened her eyes, sat up, pointed at her face, and asked, “Am I pretty?”
The two of them were taken aback, but they still nodded. “Yes.”
In the entire Fantasy Divine Palace, who doesn’t know that Eighth Sister is beautiful and mesmerizing?
“Exactly…” muttered Xiao Ba. I’m already so pretty and willingly sent herself into his arms, yet… Yan Qing was unaffected?!
She rubbed her temples.
The scene from the previous night surfaced before her eyes.
Offended? Of course, she did it on purpose.
She was different from Yan Qing and different from the other women. Since she had already detected his slight interest, she had to immediately take action. However… she never expected Yan Qing to be as firm as a steel wall!
In the middle of the night, they leaned so close to each other. Logically speaking, any man wouldn’t be able to hold himself back.
However, Yan Qing did not move. No, to be more accurate, he did move—he pulled her away, pushed her back to bed, and even covered her with the blanket! He even said: “Thank you for teaching me. Rest well.”
Then, he left.
He left?!
When he left, he didn’t forget to help her close the door.
Even when his figure completely disappeared, Xiao Ba did not recover her senses for a long time. Then, she almost didn’t sleep the entire night.
Utter humiliation!
In the past, it was always other people who chased after her. Since when did she have to take the initiative? However, she tried it for the first time and was directly defeated.
Xiao Ba was so angry that she grinded her teeth. Of course, she wasn’t angry at Yan Qing’s reaction but… the meaning behind it!
Xiao Ba held her chin with one hand and was beyond frustrated. It’s really very rare for a man to be unaffected. The reason… is undoubtedly because he doesn’t like me anymore. It’s even more so for Yan Qing’s character.
She claimed she was angry, but she was more disappointed and regretful. Yan Qing doesn’t even like someone like me. Then, who does he like?
“If I knew this, I should have touched him a little more…” she said softly with hatred.
“Eighth Sister, what did you say?” asked Lady Shi’er in confusion.
Xiao Ba laid down in annoyance. “Nothing. I was just thinking that some men are really not men…”
Lady Shi’er was confused.
However, Lady Shiyi seemed to have thought of something. She leaned in and softly asked, “Eighth Sister, it’s not very nice of you to say that about Young Master Yun, right?”
Xiao Ba was stunned. “Who?”
Lady Shiyi was instantly stunned. “Not him? Who is it then?”
Lady Shi’er also immediately reacted and covered her mouth. “Ah! It’s really not Young Master Yun? T-then—”
I’ve told the Right Divine General something wrong!
Xiao Ba looked at the two of them, able to tell their thoughts. She could not help but shake her head helplessly. “What are you thinking about… Of course, it’s not him.”
“Then, who is it?” Lady Shiyi knitted her brows.
Lady Shi’er could not help but mutter, “…In this world, is there anyone who doesn’t like Eighth Sister?”
Xiao Ba was hurt.
“He must be blind.”
…
Yan Qing was practicing his sword.
Yu Mo walked in from outside but did not go close to him. He leaned against the wall and crossed his arms as he laughed and asked, “Hm, you came back at midnight. What did you do last night?”
Yan Qing paused in his actions and retracted his sword as the sword light cut through the sky. He said, “I couldn’t sleep, so I took a walk.”
Yu Mo smiled without speaking. He raised his brows and had a deep meaning in his eyes.
Yan Qing knitted his brows and planned to leave.
When their shoulders brushed past each other, Yu Mo nudged him with his elbow and softly said, “Well, how does it feel to guard Eighth Deity’s door the whole night?”
Yan Qing paused in his tracks and finally looked at him.
Yu Mo shrugged his shoulders. “Sigh, what were you doing back then? You didn’t even notice that I was there?”
Yan Qing’s gaze flickered, but he did not speak. He was thinking…
“You really can hold it back.” Yu Mo patted his shoulders. “Tsk, I can only say one last thing. Once the chance is gone, it will be gone forever.”
Yan Qing kept quiet for a moment. “I’ll go see the Emperor.”
After walking for a distance, he saw a soldier-looking person walking over.
“Left Divine General.” That person bowed with cupped fists and had a very respectful attitude. “Something happened to the God Residence Realm. Kindly take a look.”
Yan Qing thought for a moment before nodding.
He looked in a certain direction, as if he could still hear her seemingly smiling tease.
He turned around and walked in another direction. “Show me the way.”
…
Phoenix Mountain.
After a period of reworks, the current Phoenix Mountain didn’t have the previous disheveled appearance. There were no more tall mountains but vibrant grass.
Tuan Zi sat on a rock. There was a transparent red-golden ball of light before her.
Miao Zhen returned to Godly Dragon Island the day before. Before he left, he returned Zi Chen’s soul, saying that the problem was settled and that she just had to wait patiently. Thus, she had been waiting here.
“Hm… Zi Chen, why haven’t you woken up yet…” She held her face with two hands and softly muttered.
“Sigh…”
Her eyelids started struggling to stay open, and she became slightly dazed. Thus, she did not see a ray of purple light flashing across the ball.
