These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

"Let me go... So many people are watching... How can I face anyone if my senior brothers and sisters see this...?"

Su Mi said with a slight hint of complaint, but the smile on her face was undeniably radiant.

Wei Tu smiled and looked down at the girl in his arms.

"Then you shouldn't be a human being."

"What else can you do if you're not a human being?"

"You like keeping cats, so why don't you be my cat?"

"No way..."

Su Mi blushed and pouted coquettishly.

Wei Tu, however, seemed to have already begun to fantasize about that scene, gazing at the girl's perfect face and imagining what it would be like if this girl grew two cat ears.

"There's nothing wrong with that. Being a cat is great. I'll feed you, sunbathe with you, cuddle with you every night, and bathe you..."

"Oh dear, senior brother!!"

Su Mi was so embarrassed that he stomped his feet on the spot.

Wei Tu laughed heartily, and then loosened his grip on the girl slightly.

He had her stand in front of him, and she shyly straightened her clothes.

When Wei Tu watched her live and perform every action in front of him, he felt an overwhelming sense of joy and satisfaction.

It was as satisfying as if one had gained the comfort of having no more need for anything else in the world.

She's still alive, she's still smiling in front of me, she still belongs to me... that's the best thing.

Then he smiled, as soft and gentle as a spring breeze.

"Have you missed me?"

Su Mi stood in front of him, at a position where he had to stand on tiptoe to look at her at eye level.

Her eyes were like sparkling stars, but since it was daytime, they were like the warm yet gentle sunlight as it shone on her long hair.

And so the whole story came to an end, and all the waiting and expectations became reality.

It seemed that only in this way could the boy reconcile with the whole world.

The girl's face was flushed, and her beautiful eyes were bright and hopeful.

"What kind of senior brother talks like that the first thing we do after not seeing each other for so long?"

Wei Tu also smiled, her lips curving into a smile.

"But this stinky senior brother really misses his fragrant junior sister, really, really misses her."

His words seemed to possess a magical quality, accompanying his deep voice.

The girl couldn't help but take a step forward, and then instinctively reached out and grabbed his collar.

Her delicate hand clenched into a fist and gently pounded his chest, but did not strike again.

She looked at the boy with a reproachful expression.

"Who told you, you stinky senior brother, to be gone for so long... Thinking about it, I should have done it, as long as I don't want to die."

Wei Tu chuckled.

"Have I been gone for half a month?"

"I think so... or maybe not, anyway, it's been a long time. Who told you to leave me for so long? You're not allowed to leave me for this long again, you hear me?"

It seemed that only at this moment would the girl truly speak her mind, revealing a touch of domineering arrogance.

But all the boy could hear was deep affection.

Just like their name suggests.

When the last bloom of the rose fades, spring is over. But the flowers continue to bloom, and so spring lives on in its full glory.

This is their small but significant connection, yet it is also the greatest connection in the world.

Wei Tu nodded, then bent down slightly and lowered his head.

His forehead was pressed against the girl's forehead.

Wei Tu liked this action very much because it made her feel that their thoughts and ideas would become exactly the same, as if their souls were one.

"Okay, I got it. Will you take me with you wherever we go from now on?"

Upon hearing Wei Tu's words, Su Mi's first reaction was not joy or emotion, but rather a smile, as if she had realized something.

Her eyes suddenly took on a playful look, which, combined with her alluring expression, made her even more captivating.

"Senior brother... won't this disturb your love life?"

Wei Tu was stunned for a moment, then immediately tried to straighten up.

"What peach blossoms..."

But the next moment, Su Mi reached out and pressed the back of Wei Tu's head, so Wei Tu's forehead was now pressed against the other person's forehead, just like that.

However, Wei Tu wanted to break away, because with Su Mi looking directly into his eyes at such close range, as if nothing could be hidden, if he wanted to tell a lie... it would probably be futile in front of this girl who knew him so well.

Su Mi stared straight into the boy's eyes.

It was as if even their aura was suppressing the young man.

"Senior brother is really good at pretending. What peach blossom... of course, it's about marriage with a woman."

Wei Tu immediately made a guarantee.

"I can assure you, my junior sister, that my heart belongs only to you, and nothing else..."

"What about Senior Sister Jiang?"

"Plus a senior sister."

"Think it over carefully, think it over again, do you want to add other people? If you don't say it now, you won't have another chance later."

Wei Tu looked at the girl who was staring straight at him and still smiling faintly.

He felt a chill run down his spine.

Heaven knows how sweet and loving their words were just now, even the sunlight felt warm, but now... why does the sky seem to be covered with dark clouds?

Where is the light?!

Where is my light?!

Wei Tu swallowed hard. He actually did have someone in mind... but it didn't seem appropriate to say it out loud. He felt that the girl was bluffing him, as if he would be forgiven if he spoke up. But maybe... she was just waiting for him to speak up so she could settle the score.

So the atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and the situation became tense.

Wei Tu tried to look away as much as possible, but the other person's gaze remained fixed on him.

Su Mi pressed down on the back of his head, and even the collar of his clothes was pulled by her.

"Say something, senior brother, why aren't you saying anything...? The way you look... you seem to have had a good time in the mortal realm, haven't you?"

Wei Tu immediately spoke, almost as a subconscious, reactive response.

"Of course I'm not doing well. I can't see my junior sister every day. I feel like I'm dying. I'm like a fish out of water, and I can't even breathe."

"Really? Why do you smell like other women?"

"I went to Xiaoyuan Peak first this morning, and then met with my master to report my journey. It should be hers, right?"

Just a few words, yet they seemed to brush past like flashing swords!

Only Wei Tu knew the extent of his brief, almost instantaneous reaction. It was as if any hesitation, any momentary pause, or any wrong word would have led to utter ruin.

Su Mi was still smiling, but her eyes were no longer sparkling.

It was as if another person lived inside her body, always surfacing and taking over her body at crucial moments when facing such problems.

If it weren't for that old man Ruoyuan being absolutely certain that she was dead, he would have thought he had traveled to the wrong time.

"Really? But you all smell so much, and you're sitting so close together?"

"Junior sister, what are you saying? She is the master who raised me and taught me everything. If I were closer... wouldn't I serve tea to my master? That's perfectly reasonable and understandable, right? How can you doubt the master-disciple relationship between me and my master? It's absolutely not what you think. Even if I were a scoundrel, I could never be that scoundrel."

Wei Tu was sweating profusely.

If Su Mi knew what was going on with the body-forging she was doing for Lu Qingyan... wouldn't she take a sword and stab herself with hundreds or thousands of holes?

"Hehe, you can even deceive your own senior sister... why can't you deceive your master? Hmm, I've been thinking about it, senior brother, what if you took both your senior sister and master into your room... wouldn't that be too exciting? Master and disciple together... don't you like that?"

Wei Tu almost blurted out that she liked him.

As a complete man, no man wouldn't fantasize about such a scene.

This must be acknowledged, even if it seems terrible or despicable, but it must have existed.

After all, Lu Qingyan's beauty was irresistible to anyone, and she was the first fairy to appear before his eyes; she was indeed a woman like a fairy.

Of course he liked it, but for now he could only think about it. He couldn't say it out loud, nor could he make any great effort to bring about such a relationship. Not only could he not do it, but Lu Qingyan would definitely not agree to it either.

He immediately regained his composure.

"Junior sister, you've misunderstood your senior brother. Although I admire beautiful fairies like you, there's only one Su Mi, and no one else catches my eye. Besides, don't you know how self-disciplined I am? I practice swordsmanship a thousand times every day to clear my mind of distractions."

Women only slow down my sword-drawing speed, except for Su Mi!

Furthermore, I am a very principled person; how could I do something so unethical? Junior sister, you've misunderstood your senior brother.

Hearing Wei Tu speak so logically and even eloquently, Su Mi seemed somewhat bewildered for a moment.

Am I being too suspicious? Or am I being too possessive of this man?

She frowned and glanced at Wei Tu.

"is it?"

Wei Tu nodded, then, seizing the opportunity... what seizing the opportunity? He was still confused, so he grabbed the girl's shoulders.

He stared intently into her beautiful eyes.

"Yes, don't doubt my feelings for you. I will never leave you."

As a result, Su Mi's momentum weakened, and she even felt that she might have gone a bit too far.
