Chapter 60: You used your words quite well!
No! A fox tail!!!
Jingyou suddenly remembered that his brother had said that only a demon's tail could be touched by its mate. His brother had also said that only his master could touch it.
So, the person I was just holding...
Jingyou's pen fell onto the table with a thud.
Holy crap! Immortal Venerable Hanluo!!!
When did Immortal Venerable Hanluo arrive?! Didn't I just say before that Immortal Venerable Hanluo didn't know he liked him?!
That's it?
Or did he get the Immortal Venerable drunk?
He saw it when he was cleaning up; a whole jar of wine was gone.
If that's really the case, when Immortal Venerable Hanluo wakes up, will he beat me to death?!
This time, Jingyou's gaze towards Jingshu's room was no longer filled with gossip, but rather with worry.
As the first hint of dawn appeared in the east, the nascent soul flew out of Jing Shu's body and transformed into the form of a human.
Looking at Jingran's sleeping face, Yuan Ying did not disturb him. He just stood there for a while before pushing the door open and leaving.
"Brother? Wait a minute!"
Jingyou, who had been watching the door, saw that it was Yuan Ying who came out. He didn't have time to wonder why his older brother had come out, and hurriedly called out to Yuan Ying who was about to leave.
"What's wrong? Have you finished copying the Heart-Cleansing Mantra?" The Nascent Soul frowned slightly as it looked at Jing You's furtive appearance.
"Are you doing something like a thief?"
"Hey, no." Jingyou shook his head, pointed to the ruins of the wall and the strange building, and asked in a low voice, "Did my brother do this yesterday?"
"Hmm. There's no need to speak so softly; the room has already been soundproofed."
Jingyou then asked, "Did my brother drink yesterday?"
"He didn't drink it. Why are you asking these questions?" Yuan Ying looked at Jing You with a puzzled expression, who seemed to be deep in thought.
"Brother," Jingyou said in a heavy voice, "was the person my brother was hugging yesterday Hanluo Immortal Venerable? Did my brother trick Hanluo Immortal Venerable into drinking yesterday? And, my brother, did he force himself on me last night...?"
"!!?"
The Nascent Soul cultivator's emotions were in turmoil. The first two guesses were so accurate, but the last one... how could it be so...?
The nascent soul beckoned to Jingyou, and Jingyou came over as well.
Just as she was wondering what her brother was going to say to her, the familiar slap landed on her head once again.
"Ah—!" Jingyou cried out, clutching his head. "Brother, why did you hit me?!"
It hurts so much again this time! They really didn't hold back at all.
Yuan Ying laughed angrily, "Do you think I'm that kind of person? Forcing myself on you? You've got a good word to use!"
"Ah? No... That's good!" Jingyou breathed a long sigh of relief, finally putting his mind at ease.
"Who is Immortal Venerable Hanluo? If you dare to do that, Brother, Immortal Venerable Hanluo might expel you from the sect." Jingyou didn't dare to say that what he initially thought was that the first thing Immortal Venerable Hanluo would do upon waking up was to beat his brother to death.
But Jingyou's words, "I'll expel you from the sect," once again struck a nerve with the Nascent Soul. The Nascent Soul slapped Jingyou on the head again.
"What nonsense! My master would never expel me from the sect!"
"Jing Shu is right! What have you been thinking about all day?! Go and copy the Heart-Clearing Mantra two hundred times, I'll check it when you get back!"
"No! Brother! I was wrong! I haven't finished copying it a hundred times yet!" Jingyou cried out, holding his head and begging the Nascent Soul to let him go.
He's been copying all night; if he keeps going, he might not see the sun rise tomorrow!
Seeing Jing You's appearance, the Nascent Soul cultivator finally gave in. There was no other reason; it was simply too humiliating.
"Never mind, I need to investigate something now. You come with me," the Nascent Soul said speechlessly.
Let's take Jingyou away. If he stays here any longer, who knows what other ideas might come to his head?
"Okay!" He'd do anything as long as he wasn't asked to copy anything again!
The Nascent Soul cultivator took out a mask and put it on. As a Nascent Soul cultivator, he couldn't consume the Transformation Pill and hadn't cultivated the Transformation Technique, so this was the only way to conceal his appearance.
"Let's go."
"Ok!"
After the two left, the courtyard returned to tranquility. The sun rose fully, and warm sunlight streamed into the house through the windows.
Jingran woke up, but didn't open her eyes. She just instinctively nuzzled her head towards the source of warmth.
So warm and cozy, it's been so long since I've slept this soundly...
As she gradually regained consciousness, Jingran realized something was wrong and suddenly opened her eyes. What came into view was a patch of fair skin.
"!"
Jingran was so startled that her mind went blank for a moment. When she slowly came to her senses, she realized that she had grabbed the other person's clothes and forcibly ripped open the collar.
Not only that, he even put his leg on top of the other person's leg! It was like he was glued to the other person!
Compared to him, Jing Shu's sleeping posture was far more proper.
Jingran carefully lifted her leg off Jingshu and removed her hand from Jingshu's clothes.
Jing Ran looked at his clothes and roughly understood that Jing Shu had taken care of him after he got drunk last night.
Since this was Xue Niang's residence, Jing Shu couldn't arbitrarily arrange for him to stay in another room. So, the two of them slept in the same room, but his sleeping posture was terrible.
Looking at Jing Shu's exposed chest, Jing Ran's ears turned slightly red, and she tried to pull up Jing Shu's collar while suppressing her embarrassment.
Jing Shu woke up just as his fingers touched his clothes.
Jing Ran: "......"
Jing Shu looked down at the hand on his collar, then looked at Jing Ran.
Jing Ran's actions at this moment resembled those of a lecherous man attempting to rape a virtuous young woman.
"you......"
Just as Jing Shu was about to speak, Jing Ran suddenly pulled hard on his collar, covering Jing Shu's exposed skin back up.
"N-nothing! I just noticed your collar was open and wanted to pull it back up for you!"
Jingran hurriedly tried to explain, but it only made things worse.
However, Jing Shu couldn't bear to embarrass him for too long, so he chuckled softly.
"So, thank you very much."
"No, you're welcome. Get up, it's getting late, we need to rush to the private school." Jingran abruptly changed the subject.
"Okay." Jing Shu stood up, handed Jing Ran's clothes over, and then turned his back to Jing Ran to straighten his own clothes.
“This is someone else’s home, and I couldn’t make an exception for another room. So you had to sleep with me last night. Please forgive me if I offended you,” Jing Shu explained.
"It's okay, I know," Jing Ran replied, trying to appear calm. Besides, he was the one who had been offended.
"Um, I didn't go out and damage anyone's yard after I got drunk last night, did I?" Jingran asked tentatively, still dressed.
He couldn't guarantee that after he had damaged someone else's yard, he would still encounter kind people like Mr. and Mrs. Xu.
"No, Aran was very well-behaved after getting drunk and didn't go out."
After tidying his clothes, Jing Shu heard that Jing Ran had finished dressing, and then turned around to look at Jing Ran.
"Ah Ran?!" Jing Ran exclaimed in surprise. "Why are you calling me that?"
"Don't you remember, Aran?" Jing Shu asked, looking puzzled. "It was Aran who asked me to call you that after she got drunk yesterday."
