Chapter 62 Su Shuangning
Pei Cangli felt a little puzzled when listening to the two people's self-introductions. He looked at Ji Feng and asked, "What happened to your senior brother today?"
Ji Feng said disapprovingly, "Isn't it because you met your rival? You started to get anxious, afraid that your treasure would be snatched away by someone else?"
"What treasure? Where is the treasure? Isn't Tian Xinhai's treasure still not revealed? Are the two of them already competing with each other?"
"Friend Pei, you don't understand this. Wars between men are often on the verge of breaking out. Anyway, you are here, so they can't fight. Don't worry."
Pei Cangli thought about it and realized that it was true. Men are naturally combative and they would definitely want to fight with a strong man when they meet one. However, even if the two of them fought, he could pull them apart.
Another cheerful greeting came, "Friend Pei, long time no see. I finally see you again today."
"Friend Mu, Friend Su, long time no see." It turned out to be Mu Yao and Su Yingyue from Luoshui Sect, who also came to Xianrenju.
Mu Yao ran up to Pei Cangli in a familiar manner and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Pei, if you don't mind, I will call you Senior Sister Pei from now on."
Ji Feng said without thinking, "Fellow Daoist Mu, if I remember correctly, you are older than Fellow Daoist Pei, and you still call her Senior Sister. Isn't your Senior Sister standing here?"
"So what? It's okay for me to like Pei Daoyou. Besides, Pei Daoyou's cultivation is higher than mine, and I'm only in the middle stage of foundation building. What's wrong with calling her Senior Sister?"
"Besides, Senior Sister Su didn't say anything. Why are you talking so much? Mind your own business."
Pei Cangli looked at Mu Yao holding her arm, not knowing how to refuse for a moment, and then she heard Mu Yao speak again, "Fellow Daoist Pei, you may not know yet, ever since you won first place in the selection competition for independent cultivators, there have been rumors that you are so amazing, you must be the illegitimate daughter of our sect master. So, it is only right for me to call you Senior Sister."
Xuan Shang looked at the female cultivator holding Pei Cangli's arm, and his heart was filled with jealousy. The little white flower was too popular, which was not a big deal. He not only had to be wary of men, but also women. He really wanted to kidnap her and hide her.
Seeing Pei Cangli not answering, Mu Yao announced on her own, "Okay, since Fellow Daoist Pei has agreed to this by not saying anything, I will call you Senior Sister Pei from now on."
After greeting each other, the group exchanged information. Knowing that Tian Xinhai's treasure would appear in the world in a few days, they made an appointment to go to the restaurant to have something to eat.
Mu Yao held Pei Cangli's arm along the way. On the other side, Si Yunzhou and Xuan Shang were secretly competing with each other, both wanting to be closer to Pei Cangli. The remaining Ji Feng and Su Yingyue walked silently behind.
Su Yingyue looked at Si Yunzhou in front of her and asked Ji Feng, "Fellow Daoist Ji, have you and your senior brother been with Fellow Daoist Pei since you came out of the Rain and Mist Secret Realm last time?"
"Not really, I just happened to meet him this time." Ji Feng remembered what his senior brother had told him, that he must not let others misunderstand Fellow Daoist Pei again, so he answered like this.
Su Yingyue was delighted and continued, "So, are you coming to Xianrenju this time to look for the treasures of Tianxin Sea?"
Ji Feng thought that the treasures of Tianxin Sea were not as attractive as Pei Daoyou's. If he didn't know that Pei Daoyou's location was shown in this direction, who knows where his brother would go. But he still said, "Yes, yes, who doesn't want treasures?"
"Can my junior sister and I team up with you guys for this treasure hunt?"
Before Ji Feng answered whether he wanted to form a team, Mu Yao turned around and said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, I have already made an agreement with Senior Sister Pei. We will all go to the sea together when the time comes."
After getting the answer she wanted, Su Yingyue stopped talking to Ji Feng, and silently thought to herself that she must perform well in front of Si Yunzhou this time and let him see her good side.
The group came to this restaurant near Tianxin Tower. After all, there were so many people, so they had to find a good private room, and this restaurant looked very large.
As soon as I stepped into the door of the restaurant, an enthusiastic waiter came up to greet me, "Dear guests, please go upstairs. It happens that our young master is here today, so you are in for a feast for your eyes."
After hearing the waiter's inexplicable words, everyone was confused. It was Xuan Shang who spoke up, "Why? Is your young lady performing in the restaurant today?"
The waiter said happily, "Exactly. Sir, you have good eyesight. You can tell at a glance that she is the young lady's follower."
After Pei Cangli finished speaking, before he could react, Xuan Shang's face suddenly turned even paler. He hurriedly explained, "What nonsense are you talking about, man? I just heard someone talk about it before."
Si Yunzhou looked at Xuan Shang jokingly. He deserved it for letting him show off. Now Cangli should see what kind of person he is.
Before Si Yunzhou could finish his joy, he saw a veiled woman approaching him. She bowed and said, "Friend Si, long time no see. Do you still remember me?"
As he spoke, he asked the waiter to go downstairs and took the group to the private room upstairs. Before Si Yunzhou could reply, he heard Xuan Shang say, "Friend Si Dao is still popular. I just heard that Friend Si Dao actually knew Miss Su before."
Si Yunzhou looked at the woman in front of him with a bewildered look on his face, and said, "Miss, you must have recognized the wrong person. I don't know you."
Pei Cangli was originally being asked questions by Mu Yao and hadn't paid any attention. But when he heard the name Miss Su, he looked up and saw that it was Miss Su from Tianxin Tower. It turned out that this restaurant was also their family's property.
Pei Cangli saw Su Yingyue seemed a little unnatural from the corner of his eye. He thought, since they both have the surname Su, could they be from the same family? So he asked, "Fellow Daoist Su, could this Miss Su be from the same family as you?"
Miss Su also took off her veil at this time and was looking at Si Yunzhou affectionately, trying to see something from Si Yunzhou's face. When she heard Pei Cangli's question, she turned around and found that they were indeed a family. This was the cousin from her second uncle's family who entered the sect.
Miss Su pretended to be shocked and said, "Cousin, you came to Xianrenju, but why didn't you come to see me? Although my second uncle and the others are all in their hometown, we are cousins after all. Could it be that you look down on me, a cousin who does business?"
Su Yingyue's face turned pale, and she said timidly, "I just arrived at Xianrenju, and I haven't had time to report to my cousin yet. I hope my cousin can forgive me."
Miss Su glared at him and said, "What are you talking about? It's as if I'm bullying you. This is the family rule, and I'm just asking about it as a routine."
After saying this, she was worried that Si Yunzhou might misunderstand her, so she explained softly, "Don't get me wrong. It's not easy for our Su family to open a restaurant and auction house in Xianrenju. In order to prevent anyone in the family from not understanding the rules, all clan members who come here must report in advance."
After saying that, Miss Su saw Pei Cangli standing next to her, and her expression changed instantly, but it was so fleeting that almost no one noticed it. However, Xuan Shang did see some clues.
If she just likes Si Yunzhou, then he can fulfill her wish, but if she dares to attack Pei Cangli, that would be challenging his bottom line, and he doesn't mind sending her off personally.
After Miss Su went out to prepare for the performance, Su Yingyue said, "Her father and Miss Su's father are brothers. Because Miss Su's father had a talent for business, he went out on his own. Unexpectedly, he really made a name for himself."
Through Su Yingyue's narration, everyone learned that this Miss Su, whose name was Su Shuangning, had come here since her father had settled down in Xianrenju. With Su Shuangning's continuous efforts, the business of their Tianxin Building was getting better and better.
Su Shuangning's father also became the patriarch of the Su family. Everything had to be approved by the patriarch. Su Shuangning also had a large number of followers in Xianrenju. At every auction, a large number of cultivators came for her.
Pei Cangli understood this deeply, but why did she stare at him last time?
