Chapter 241 Trust
Seeing Qu Xinyu's serious expression, Ye Lin had no choice but to retract his steps to leave.
He crushed the note.
"Cousin..."
When Master Xueyu's voice came out, there was no expression on Ye Lin's face.
After all, he didn't have any strong feelings towards the Ye family.
But what Master Xueyu said afterwards made his emotions fluctuate like never before.
"There is one thing that I have been keeping in my heart. For so many years, I have been thinking about it day and night, and even practicing has made me unable to calm down. So I decided to tell you everything I know..."
As Master Xue Yu told Ye Lin everything he knew, the expression on his face did not change much.
But Qu Xinyou could clearly feel that the spiritual energy fluctuations around him were constantly changing.
"...That's pretty much all I know, cousin. I know that the Ye family is sorry for you and cousin, but the Ye family had no choice back then..."
[Bah! What's the point of having to do this? A big family actually uses the younger generation of the same family to exchange for resources and opportunities to cooperate with the Fang family. Aren't they afraid of being ridiculed? ]
Without waiting for Ye Lin and Qu Xinyu to say anything, Gua Gua started to feel indignant.
Although it had known about this for a long time, it did not prevent it from standing up for Ye Lin and Ye Qiulan after hearing it.
After all, Ye Lin is Youyou's master.
Qu Xinyu did not respond, but just kept paying attention to Ye Lin's current condition.
Seeing that Master Xueyu's voice had disappeared from the note, Ye Lin remained silent, and her heart was slightly lifted.
"Master..."
"Where did this note come from?"
Qu Xinyu thought about it and decided to answer truthfully.
"I found it in the pond in your cave that day..."
Speaking of that day, Ye Lin naturally still had an impression of it.
At that time, Qu Xinyu said that his senior brother was looking for him, but when he went to look for him, his senior brother said no.
He did not doubt Qu Xinyou at that time. Later, when Qu Xinyou entered his cave and stood by the pond in a disheveled state, saying that he liked to collect water, he did not doubt it.
Later, when he passed by various water sources, he often helped Qu Xinyou collect water.
Now that I think about it, it was just a lie told by my apprentice to dispel his suspicion.
but--
"why?"
Why did he secretly take the note? Why did Qu Xinyu know what was inside the note without opening it?
Why didn't you tell him the truth when you knew it?
He stared at Qu Xinyou, with an unprecedented coldness on his face.
[No, he wouldn't suspect that you and the Ye family have something going on, right? You tell him the truth, why would he suspect you? I wouldn't have told him if I had known! ]
Qu Xinyou lowered his eyes, without much emotion on his face.
She didn't seem to have any emotion because of Ye Lin's attitude, but if you look closely, you can see that the muscles on her face are slightly stiff.
[Normal.] She said: [If it were me, I would also be suspicious.]
Although the tone was quite normal, Gua Gua could still sense that something was wrong.
Especially Yaya who was standing next to her, she clearly felt that her master was in a bad mood, and she kept rubbing Qu Xinyou's face worriedly.
"Master, don't be sad, don't be upset..."
[Youyou, don’t worry about it...]
Guagua discovered that it didn’t know how to comfort Qu Xinyou.
Yaya was also very panicked. For a moment, it couldn't help but hate Ye Lin a little. It floated in front of Ye Lin, grinning, and even wanted to use its spiritual power.
【I'm fine. 】
At the same time, Qu Xinyou said to Guagua and Yaya.
She's really fine.
It's just that I'm a little disappointed.
It turned out that her master, who believed in her unconditionally and treated her well, would doubt her without hesitation when faced with something that he cared more about...
But only a little bit. Really just a little bit.
She could understand that even her biological parents would not believe her unconditionally, let alone her adopted master?
Qu Xinyou pursed her lips, suppressed the slight ripples in her heart, and was about to speak.
"Sorry, Xinyou." Ye Lin suddenly said, "Did I scare you?"
Upon hearing this, Qu Xinyou was stunned.
Then Ye Lin continued:
"I just want to know whether this matter is true, and whether Master Xueyu has lied to you..."
After listening to Ye Lin's explanation, Qu Xinyou finally understood.
It turned out that the reason why the master asked her this and had such a cold expression was because he was targeting Master Xueyu and the Ye family.
Not towards her.
From the beginning to the end, what he cared about was whether his disciple had been deceived by Master Xueyu.
He wanted to know why Qu Xinyou told him all this only now, whether it was because of the instigation of Master Xueyu or someone else.
After all, in his eyes, Qu Xinyou was just a sensitive but obedient child.
[Uh, it turns out that I misunderstood him. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted Ye Lin! ]
It said, how could a person like Ye Lin doubt his disciple and Youyou just because of a few words!
Guagua changed his words so quickly that even Qu Xinyou was speechless.
But she didn't say anything. After all, even she just...
She pursed her lips, looked up at Ye Lin's worried expression, and felt a strange feeling in her heart.
At this time, what Ye Lin cared about was not the truth, but whether she was deceived.
Under Ye Lin's worried gaze, she said calmly:
“I can guarantee the authenticity of this matter. If Master doesn’t believe it, you can go ask Uncle Yuze.
I stole the note and told you now because I felt it was not the right time..."
After a pause, he continued to explain:
“And how could I know what the note said without opening it? I can’t tell you the truth.
But Master Xueyu did not deceive me, all of this is true."
If it were before, she might have chosen to continue lying.
With Ye Lin's trust in her, it is estimated that the other party will not doubt anything she says.
But somehow she didn't want to continue lying.
She couldn't tell a lie, nor could she tell the truth, so she chose this statement.
With a little bit of trepidation, she looked at Ye Lin.
Will Master believe her?
Or will I still get to the bottom of it...
But Ye Lin nodded seriously.
"I see."
His tone and attitude were the same as always, and he seemed to trust her completely, even though she didn't tell him the reason or even produce any evidence.
He believed in her unconditionally.
Qu Xinyou opened his mouth and closed it again. He wanted to say a lot, but in the end he said nothing.
Seeing this, Ye Lin said gently: "Don't worry, I know what is important and what is not. The demons are about to attack Yuqing Sect.
Yuqing Sect needs me, my brother and you need me, I will not lose my mind regardless of the consequences."
He saw what Qu Xinyu wanted to say, and also roughly guessed why Qu Xinyu chose to tell him now.
However, he was not dissatisfied. Instead, he felt that his apprentice was as sincere as he thought.
Qu Xinyou's expression was somewhat complicated.
"Master, aren't you curious about where I know these things?"
