Why didn't you avoid it?

"Because I'm not afraid."

Why aren't you afraid?

"Because you're not very strong."

He spoke with such seriousness that you were momentarily speechless.

"Yay!"

As if remembering something, a slight smile appeared on your lips. You gasped in surprise, your legs suddenly gave way, and you tumbled into the arms of the person before you.

【"Gulp~"】

You clearly hear a barely perceptible swallowing sound. Looking up, you see a handsome face flushed, and even his neck is lightly blushing.

Hehe~ Still so innocent?

[Brother Su Yu~]

Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, you deftly reached into your sleeve, seized the jade box, and promptly stood up straight, turning to leave.

"Wait...wait a minute!"

Su Yu snapped out of her daze, her fingertips unconsciously twirling slightly; the feeling of being enveloped in warmth and fragrance just now was truly wonderful.

"What's wrong?"

Turning around, you tilted your head and asked, feigning ignorance.

[Because you overdid it a few days ago, you're trying to salvage your image.]

Today you specially wore a long, wide-sleeved pink gauze dress, with several strings of delicate pink pearls hanging from your waist, and a simple white flower ornament in your hair. You looked both pure and well-behaved.

"My name is Su Yu."

Seeing his forced composure, yet his embarrassment barely concealed between his brows, a sense of doubt arose in your heart.

[Su Yu doesn't seem to have run into you by chance, so there's only one possibility.]

【The Purple Demon Lord!】

What did she mean by putting her nephew in front of her?

Looking at his excessively handsome face, your lips twitched slightly; the answer was already clear in your mind.

Wow, this is a classic case of using a handsome man to seduce someone!

First came the "Hehuan Order," and now it's about sending off a nephew.

[As a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, and backed by the city lord, a powerful local figure, if she's interested in him, why doesn't she take forceful action?]

【unless...】

[You've been reminded of that stunningly beautiful woman—Feng Qianyue!]

[So it turns out a big shot has stepped in.]

Although you don't yet know her identity, within the Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty, even disregarding her unfathomable cultivation level, just based on her status alone, how many people wouldn't give her face?

Thinking of this, you instantly felt incredibly safe. Your gaze fell on the somewhat bewildered Su Yu, and a mischievous smile crept onto your lips.

With a slightly flushed face, you slowly moved back to him, lowered your head, and timidly asked:

"So... what does Brother Su want to do to me?"

"I would like to invite you to join the Hehuan Sect."

Remembering her aunt's instructions, Su Yu adopted the demeanor of a Foundation Establishment cultivator and spoke righteously.

【Oh~】

You reached out and tugged at his sleeve, your large eyes filled with a mixture of innocence and naivety.

"Why did you join the Hehuan Sect?"

Seeing that he didn't speak, you took advantage of the situation and slowly reached out to touch his chest.

"Does he want Qianqian to be his Daoist partner?"

【"Heh~"】

You hear a very soft, cold laugh, and when you look up, you meet Su Yu's eyes, which have suddenly calmed down.

He may be somewhat naive when it comes to matters of the heart, but he's not stupid. Your behavior is practically blatant seduction.

The next instant, you felt your body lighten, your toes quickly leaving the ground, and you landed in a warm embrace.

You instinctively reached out and wrapped your arms around his neck, the movement so practiced that it silenced both of you.

[After a moment, you suddenly asked:]

Have you ever had a Daoist partner?

After all, more than four years have passed since their first meeting. If the other party has already lost their virginity, then there's no need to waste time.

[Su Yu, who was about to stride away, paused, gritting her teeth and saying:]

【"No!"】

【"oh..."】

That's fine.

You obediently shut up and nestled in his arms without saying another word.

【"And you?"】

Upon hearing Su Yu's question, you immediately gave him a blatant eye roll.

[I almost blurted out: Didn't your aunt tell you that I'm now Mrs. Bai in name only?]

[But you've always loathed this identity. In your heart, marriage should be a natural product of love. It's just... you're no longer qualified to touch something so pure.]

[The so-called marriage is nothing more than Bai Shouzhuo's wishful thinking and verbal declaration; you're just playing along.]

There was neither a marriage contract nor a vow.

So the words, once on the tip of my tongue, came out as:

"Then don't worry about it."

【"......"

Seeing him standing there in a daze, you gently breathed into his ear.

"Brother Su~ Are you planning to hold me here and stand here forever?"

Your sweet, soft voice is so gentle it seems to drip with moisture.

"Didn't you say you wanted them to join the Hehuan Sect? Or... are you not good enough?"

These words, coupled with your elegant and refined appearance today, and your pure and innocent look with eyes like autumn water, are just as damaging as spreading rumors that he is gay.

【"snort!"】

Su Yu's face darkened, and after a cold snort, he picked you up and strode out of the treasure vault.

You nestled your face against his shoulder, your eyes crinkling with a smile, and out of the corner of your eye, you met the stunned gaze of Han Xuan in the distance.

You raised an eyebrow at him, a hint of warning flashing in your eyes:

You're dead if you tell anyone!

Han Xuan's expression stiffened, and he subconsciously took two steps back, making a gesture to seal his mouth.

Hehe~ Bye-bye~

You mouthed something to him silently, the ambiguous meaning of which made Han Xuan feel a little regretful. He should have been more proactive.

It's just a pity that when he heard you were already married, and given your assertive behavior at the time, he backed down...

【...】

[A night of absurdity.]

When you wake up the next day, you look at the mess on the floor and feel a little emotional. The first day of your reunion with your best buddies has turned out like this—it's certainly been a bit intense!

[After getting dressed and ready to sneak away, a pair of large hands pinned you down.]

【? 】

You turn around and look at your best friend, whose eyes are filled with resentment, and feel inexplicably guilty.

"Haha... Good morning!"

You manage an awkward but polite smile.

"Where to?"

Su Yu didn't hold it against you for not being a virgin.

"I have important business to attend to back here!"

Your gaze is firm and unwavering.

"Didn't you say yesterday..."

You raised your hand to interrupt him.

"Yesterday is yesterday, and today is today; how can they be conflated?"

[Su Yu: "??????"]

He almost lost his temper and tried to subdue you on the spot; I've never seen such a shameless person!

Unfortunately, my aunt had already asked me not to do anything...

"Alright, I'll come visit you at the Hehuan Sect when I have time, sweetie~!"

You smiled and ruffled his hair, then turned and left, satisfied, under Su Yu's indignant gaze.

Outside the door, you look up at the rising sun on the horizon, the suppressed excitement in your eyes finally bursting forth.

This time, I will definitely succeed in Foundation Establishment!!!
