Xu Qingyan lowered his head slightly, not meeting her gaze, and spoke in a normal voice.
"What do you want to talk about, Master?"
Hearing such obviously cold and unfamiliar words, her brows slightly frowned.
Even the sound was shaking uncontrollably.
"Let's talk about... why we are like this."
In fact, Lin Yan has been thinking all along the way.
With every step she took, she seemed to be thinking, what should be the first sentence she should say to him?
Should I ask him why he went to Xueyu Mountain again?
Or should I ask him what he did in that bamboo house?
Or...what is the relationship between him and Pei Yu now?
But it seems that asking any question is not my style, and if I ask him, he will probably give the same answer as before.
'The disciple's private affairs have nothing to do with the master'.
She didn't want to experience that kind of gap and bitterness again.
She said this without any prior thought, as if it was the question she wanted to ask most after seeing the other person's expression.
Why did it suddenly become like this?
Why did so many changes occur after a retreat that I had to pay attention to?
Why did he look at me like this, alienating me, ignoring me, and even wanting to escape from me?
Xu Qingyan didn't expect the other party to ask this.
Because in my impression, whether in my previous life or in the original work, Lin Yan should be a person who is quite reserved and good at hiding her emotions.
At least she should be calmer, and not get so emotional and say things she has never heard of like she has in the past few days.
"What does Master mean...isn't it right for us to do this?"
Hearing Xu Qingyan's answer, he did not show any strange expression.
Lin Yan couldn't help but sneer, as if mocking herself.
"Is that right? You don't tell me anything now, you don't say anything to me... Do you still regard me as your master? Is everything still the same as before?"
Like before?
Xu Qingyan looked at the woman in front of him who always looked extremely attractive no matter what time it was, even in the previous life when she swung her sword to end the karma between them.
"Master, I am not a child anymore. So I will take care of many things, so as not to trouble you."
His answer was quite normal, and others might even feel relieved.
But this is something Lin Yan cannot accept.
She looked straight at Xu Qingyan.
"What if I want you to rely on me more... and need my help more?"
Xu Qingyan smiled.
"What if I lose today and fail the sect exam? Will Master help me solve it?"
"..."
The sky was dark, and the rays of sunset had long since disappeared.
The moonlight was cold and desolate, just like her peach garden at this moment.
When it shines on her face, it looks so pale, not as bright as it should be.
How should she answer this question? She seemed unable to answer.
The hesitation at that time seemed to have become an irrefutable flaw now. Even if I said I would find a way... would it be convincing?
Looking at Lin Yan now, Xu Qingyan did not feel disappointed at all.
People will consider their own interests. In the final analysis, it was just that I was too stupid at the time and took the bait voluntarily.
There is no reason to blame the other person too much, but this can be a reason for yourself not to repeat the same mistakes.
"It's getting late, and it's not good for me to stay here, so..."
"Qingyan, do you drink?"
When Xu Qingyan was about to find a random excuse to get away, the other party suddenly said this.
"drink wine?"
Xu Qingyan looked at Lin Yan.
I don't know what Lin Yan was thinking about, but her expression seemed to have calmed down, without that kind of emotion or shame.
She even took out a jar of dusty old wine from the side couch.
She stood up and sat down at the table, looking a little tired, and raised her beautiful eyes tenderly.
"Well, let's drink. Didn't you say that you would consider your own destination after this sect exam? If you really don't stay in Chenjian Mountain, our master and disciple will never have a drink together. Don't you think it's a pity?"
She actually smiled.
It's like giving up something.
She is still like in her previous life, not really thinking how important she is. Once she gets used to the gap, maybe she will return to her original self.
Xu Qingyan just thought about it and nodded.
"I can't drink much, I hope I won't spoil Master's mood."
He didn't insist on leaving, so let's have a drink.
If possible, it would be a period to put an end to the entanglements in the previous life.
It also allows you to free yourself to do what you want to do.
After opening the mud seal, the aroma of the wine naturally wafted out.
She used a bowl instead of a wine glass, as if to foreshadow a possible drunkenness.
"Come on, cheers."
She held the bowl full of wine towards herself, with a strange smile on her face.
Xu Qingyan didn't know whether she had completely given up or was thinking of doing something else, but now he had no reason not to toast.
He also raised his wine bowl.
"boom."
It was a crisp collision sound.
Then, almost at the same time, he pushed the drink down his throat.
It tasted good, but unfortunately Xu Qingyan didn't have much experience in tasting alcoholic beverages, so he couldn't explain why.
He just noticed that Lin Yan, who had finished the drink in one gulp, refilled the glasses for her and himself.
The young man frowned and saw her raise the wine bowl again.
"Master, don't drink too fast. You'll get drunk easily."
Lin Yan smiled and looked at Xu Qingyan casually.
"Is it bad to get drunk? The purpose of drinking is to get drunk, so that you can stop thinking about those troubles, and you can get through the uncomfortable moments more quickly."
Lin Yan would never say such a thing in the past.
Speaking the truth after drinking? No... She was just letting out her emotions.
But she will also be sad because of this?
Xu Qingyan didn't believe it.
If she wants to drink, I will drink with her.
Even if it means getting drunk, it is better than having any more entanglements.
When she finished the second bowl, she poured the third bowl. Her face was already slightly flushed, and her fair face was as gorgeous and charming as a red plum blossom blooming on the snowy field.
"Have you decided where to go?"
She seemed to have accepted the fact that Xu Qingyan was leaving, or perhaps the alcohol made her seem more relaxed and natural.
Xu Qingyan is still very sober.
"I don't know. I haven't thought about it much yet."
"Isn't it Xueyu Mountain?"
She smiled, as if mocking her own pretense.
So Xu Qingyan also laughed.
“Xueyu Mountain is indeed a good choice.”
"Of course it's a good choice. It's more popular than Chen Jianshan, and it seems like it will have more opportunities. What's more... there's also Pei Yu, right?"
This is obvious irony.
Did she think that the reason she left Chen Jian Mountain was because she wanted more opportunities to stand out? Was it because of Pei Yu's beauty?
But misunderstanding is misunderstanding, it makes no difference.
After all, sometimes the truth hurts more.
"Well, Master Pei is indeed a graceful woman."
So Xu Qingyan agreed with the other party's words.
It was this sentence that made Lin Yan frown.
She held the wine bowl even tighter, as if she wanted to crush it.
It was because of that bitch...
So she looked at Xu Qingyan.
"Do you know what kind of person Pei Yu is?"
Xu Qingyan smiled indifferently.
"I don't know him well, I've only met him a few times."
"You've only met her a few times, and you think she's so charming and graceful. Are you willing to leave Shenjian Mountain for her?"
I listened to her words that were clearly starting to sound wrong, and watched her finish a bowl of wine in one breath.
Xu Qingyan shook his head calmly.
"I didn't leave Shenjian Mountain for her, so I'm not so foolish as to be so obsessed."
"Haha... wishful thinking..."
She said this sarcastically, then picked up the wine bowl and drank another bowl.
This is the fourth bowl.
Her face became even more rosy.
But she poured herself another full bowl, not caring whether Xu Qingyan was drinking or not, she was going to drink the fifth bowl in this short time.
"Don't drink anymore, you'll really get drunk."
Xu Qingyan reached out and held the woman's white wrist.
Lin Yan raised her head. There was a kind of resentment in her eyes that Xu Qingyan had never seen before, a kind of fiery paranoia, like the first signs of madness.
She spoke each word with emphasis.
"You think it's wishful thinking to have feelings for her... Then what do you think of me?"
Xu Qingyan slowly let go of his hand.
"As a master."
"Snapped!"
