Chapter 172: A Touching Reunion? Yeah, Right!
Suddenly, time seemed to stop.
Only the noisy wind continued to caress every leaf in the forest.
Mu Jixue’s face froze up instantly due to her worry for Yun Zhonghe, while Lin Zhongyu could only stare with eyes wide open.
“Yun Brother… What’s going on?”
Seeing the disheveled girl in Yun Zhonghe’s arms, Lin Zhongyu greeted awkwardly.
Facing her question, Yun Zhonghe replied naturally, “I saved her by chance while I was looking for you guys. She should also be one of the new disciples going to the sect.”
“Oh… Now I get it…”
Lin Zhongyu acted as if she had fully understood.
But in reality, her brain was a mess, like a hurricane was brewing inside her head.
She had so many questions but didn’t know where to start or how to approach Yun Zhonghe.
All she could think of was the image of Su Xiaoxiao tightly embracing Yun Zhonghe. From this, Lin Zhongyu could imagine that Yun Zhonghe must have come to her rescue when she was desperate.
Just like he always did when Lin Zhongyu encountered troubles, he would step forward fearlessly.
This made Lin Zhongyu feel a blockage in her heart.
Was Yun Brother always like this to every girl? Always willing to help?
Felt a huge gap and sadness when she realized it wasn’t exclusive to her.
No no no! Stop thinking such silly thoughts! Yun Brother is just that kind of person; he never does anything extraordinary unless he genuinely wants to.
It was her own petty-mindedness wanting to monopolize him.
Thinking this way made her feel even worse. Especially when she saw the impressive bosom of the lady, she felt instantly inferior.
Why do they grow so big?!
What did she eat as a child?!
Mu Jixue remained silent.
Not because she didn’t want to speak, but because she was unsure what to say.
She was extremely mad, but could not explain why.
She felt like she lost something important too.
But she couldn’t express her anger because she had decided to change, and Yun Zhonghe was merely doing his duty as a cultivator.
Looking at the tall girl in Yun Zhonghe’s arms, Mu Jixue felt extremely uncomfortable.
Another one? Why another one?
At the same time, Su Xiaoxiao was the most bewildered one.
She never imagined Yun Zhonghe would bring her to Mu Jixue and Lin Zhongyu!
Feeling their intense gazes, Su Xiaoxiao became extremely nervous.
What the heck is going on?!
Who are these girls and why did Yun Zhonghe bring her here?
Are they friends of Yun Zhonghe too?
Su Xiaoxiao tried hard to stay calm.
She failed.
Social anxiety hit her like a truck—she felt drained and weak when facing strangers.
Terrifyingly, she also sensed unprecedented pressure from Mu Jixue.
This girl is scary!!
Never met before, neither remembers each other. Plus, they look completely different now.
The touching reunion has become tense, almost bordering on hostility.
“Little Miss Su, let me introduce them. These are my good friends, Mu Jixue and Lin Zhongyu. We’re all new disciples at Xuantian Sect.”
“The reason I brought you here is because it’s safer if we stick together.”
“Moreover, both Mu Jixue and Lin Zhongyu are incredibly strong.”
“Especially Mu Jixue. Though she looks small and cute, she’s actually the strongest among us.”
“So you can relax. Even if the crows attack again, we’re prepared.”
Before ending, Yun Zhonghe reminded, “Also, note that we’re all from Cangzhou City.”
Hearing details like Mu Jixue and Cangzhou City, Su Xiaoxiao might recall this is the childhood friend she knew before.
After this “touching reunion,” Su Xiaoxiao will cling to Mu Jixue, and Mu Jixue will take care of her gently. Their relationship will evolve beyond mere friendship!
Alright then! Let’s all live happily ever after, I’ll be your lookout.
Come on, give me some fan service!
In an instant, Yun Zhonghe thought about many things. A smile crept up involuntarily, as if the beautiful future was beckoning him.
But when he looked at Su Xiaoxiao, he saw her collapse, frothing at the mouth.
Too scary, this girl is terrifying! I don’t want to be with her, feels like I’ll d*e with her.
Yun Zhonghe: Huh???
Come on, shouldn’t the next part be a touching reunion? Why is Su Xiaoxiao acting like a terrified little hamster who just saw a giant cat?
Meanwhile, Mu Jixue’s mind was preoccupied with Yun Zhonghe bringing back another girl. She felt vexed and didn’t react to Su Xiaoxiao’s name.
She only gritted her teeth and muttered angrily, “d*mn yellow-haired, anyone can be your friend?”
Yun Zhonghe repeatedly hinted to Mu Jixue about Su Xiaoxiao, but Mu Jixue paid no attention, still fixated on Yun Zhonghe carrying a n*ked big girl.
Of course, Yun Zhonghe likes bigger ones, right?
With that intimidating body, it’s starkly different. She’s tiny and petite; obviously, Yun Zhonghe doesn’t feel anything towards her.
“Ugh… why did it have to be like this…”
Mu Jixue was completely at her wit’s end, especially after understanding Yun Zhonghe’s feelings back then. Thus, she felt more distressed.
The body of the other girl seemed to steal everything from her, making it harder to accept Su Xiaoxiao as a person.
She came first though!
At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao regained some consciousness.
Lin Zhongyu wrapped her in a coat, but because Mu Jixue’s size hardly matched, Lin Zhongyu’s was barely enough. Especially around the chest area, a lot of effort was needed to fit everything in, leading to the coat popping open.
Lin Zhongyu cried inwardly.
How can two girls who look alike be so different?
Once done, Lin Zhongyu sighed and said, “I’ll go think about life over there.” She sat silently nearby with a somber silhouette.
Yun Zhonghe was baffled, puzzled.
Wait, isn’t this supposed to be a deeply moving reunion?
This is the first time his plan backfired.
Su Xiaoxiao was a bit unhappy too, but was too afraid to complain.
Yun Zhonghe was her new friend.
“Yun Brother… Why didn’t you tell me?”
Just thinking about her awkward pose being seen by others made her feel uneasy.
Even if they were girls, she felt super awkward.
Her gloomy aura intensified.
Though shy, she could still feel upset, but kept it subtle.
But Yun Zhonghe’s response snuffed out any lingering resentment.
“We were in a rush. I didn’t have time to think; I just felt I had to get you somewhere safe.”
Clouded by her emotions, Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t meet Yun Zhonghe’s gaze.
Now Mu Jixue completely ignored Su Xiaoxiao. So Yun Zhonghe focused building up personal favor instead.
His voice remained calm but full of sincerity.
Glimpsing his earnest gaze, Su Xiaoxiao could sense his sincerity.
Such strong and passionate feelings overwhelmed her.
Yet her social anxiety made her struggle.
Tall stature, yet smaller capacity compared to Mu Jixue. With just a touch of warmth, she felt filled to the brim.
Shying away, Su Xiaoxiao instinctively played with her hair, trying to hide her eyes.
Whispering softly, “Thank you…”
“You’re welcome.”
Yun Zhonghe nodded calmly.
That must have added to his favor.
But boosting his favor alone was pointless; he also needed to make Mu Jixue and Su Xiaoxiao reconcile properly.
And Huan Aotian didn’t seem well-adjusted; might need soothing?
Feels exhausting, dealing with the issues for this white-haired girl.
Shouldn’t he get some sweet favors to balance this stress?
Yun Zhonghe’s mind raced, contemplating the next steps for this chaotic reunion.
