Immortal Fairies Always Have Designs on Me

Xiao Yinruo took a small step back and heard Pei Wanyu's voice in her ear: "Have you forgotten how you promised me back then?"

Xiao Yinruo's expression slightly changed: "It's a matter of urgency..."

"What are you anxious about?" Pei Wanyu sneered: "Standing up for that girl Nanzhi?"

"No, otherwise?" Xiao Yinruo looked at Pei Wanyu sternly: "Nanzhi isn't your match, of course, I, as her Master, should stand up for her."

Pei Wanyu chuckled lightly and turned to Lu Jin'an: "Good disciple, you should go take a bath first."

Lu Jin'an wasn't sure what the two had said through sound transmission, but he understood that his Master probably intended to 'deal with' Aunt Ruo...

He was a bit curious to see, but considering Aunt Ruo's image as Qingmiao Palace Master, he cupped his hands and exited the room.

Pei Wanyu raised her right hand, the Time Path revolving, and under her power of the Dao, the broken door returned to its original state, isolating the bedroom from the corridor.

She then set up a soundproof barrier and began to walk towards Xiao Yinruo, preparing to lay the groundwork between her good disciple and close friend.

On the way back, she had already drafted her speech.

Pei Wanyu stopped, her sharp gaze on Xiao Yinruo: "Standing up for Nanzhi, is that true?"

"I promised you, naturally not... you!"

In a fluster, Xiao Yinruo quickly pressed down her skirt, looking at Pei Wanyu with embarrassed anger: "What are you doing?"

Pei Wanyu sneered: "You didn't empathize with me, Qingyue didn't do anything, so how do you explain the marks on your pants?

You aren't cultivating the Forget Love Path for long-lasting affection, so how do you still have feelings?"

"You truly have shocked me!"

With both hands pressing her skirt, Xiao Yinruo explained: "I didn't empathize with you, but I had to judge the timing, so I listened to the whole thing..."

"Just admit whether you were moved or not?"

"..." Xiao Yinruo glared at her in shame and anger: "Can you be reasonable? I'm a woman too!"

"You're a woman cultivating the Forget Love Path." Pei Wanyu said lightly: "And you've seen everything of my disciple, even tasted him...

Previously in Jing'an City, you hugging him gave him hope, and now this has happened. Do you think he won't overthink it?"

"I..." Xiao Yinruo bit her lip: "I will explain everything clearly to him!"

After a pause, she continued: "Once Nanzhi has confirmed all the truths from the Wandao Sect, I will apologize to you. You don't have to forgive me, so he won't have any misguided thoughts about me."

"Misguided thoughts?" Pei Wanyu chuckled: "Who's having misguided thoughts about whom?"

Xiao Yinruo moved to the other side of the table but still held her skirt: "I don't believe he wouldn't listen to you. When we talked in Jing'an City, he tried to restrain his feelings for me through you. If you step in now, there must be a way!"

Listening to Xiao Yinruo's words, Pei Wanyu couldn't help recalling the conversation in Jing'an City, which always amused her.

Much like tonight's incident, her friend's mind worked in interesting twists.

Pei Wanyu's lips twitched, and she quickly pinched herself behind the leg. This wasn't the time to laugh; she had to continue 'performing.'

"He'll listen, but..." Pei Wanyu said softly, settling her emotions: "Everything you did tonight was for Jin'an, coupled with our years of friendship, I can't not forgive you just because of that reason.

We've had plenty of battles on the Immortal Path before; do you think I'd dwell on you trying to steal my man tonight?"

Xiao Yinruo understood. The woman in front of her was most worried about them becoming real 'sisters.'

"Let me ask you again." Pei Wanyu slowly said: "How did it feel when you tasted Jin'an?"

Xiao Yinruo was taken aback, about to refute when she saw Pei Wanyu's serious look: "Answer my question honestly."

Xiao Yinruo's red lips moved as she recalled the earlier scene, her peach-blossom eyes showing a hint of discomfort.

'So that's what it tastes like... not very tasty.'

Xiao Yinruo lowered her gaze, not daring to tell Pei Wanyu, even though she truly had no other thoughts, she knew Pei Wanyu wouldn't believe it.

"Don't dare to say?" Pei Wanyu's voice pressed.

Xiao Yinruo saw the slight tension in Pei Wanyu's eyes and suddenly felt a certain confidence: "You're scared?"

Pei Wanyu was stunned: "What am I scared of?"

"You're scared I'll take him away." Xiao Yinruo smiled: "To you, both Nanzhi and Qingyue are little girls, but I'm different.

We're of similar age, similar build... in your words, we're mature women, and Jin'an likes this type, so you're afraid I'll take him away, right?"

"Nonsense!" Pei Wanyu denied: "Scared of you? Me? For what reason?"

"So lacking in confidence?" Xiao Yinruo's eyes gleamed playfully: "Does that even sound like you?"

Pei Wanyu squinted her eyes: "Utterly ridiculous! Jin'an would never like a reckless woman who breaks in without understanding anything like you!"

"Then what are you worried about?" Xiao Yinruo propped one hand on the table: "Oh~ you're afraid after he's had enough of you, he'll take an interest in me and ignore you, right?"

"You think you can?"

"What about me?" Xiao Yinruo countered: "Am I ugly? Is my figure bad? I even have an obedient 'daughter,' and have something in common with 'daughter,' isn't that attractive to him?"

"You indeed have bad intentions towards my disciple!" Pei Wanyu's face darkened: "As the Qingmiao Palace Master, do you not keep your word?"
