249: Small vinegar jar Shuiyue
Chapter 249: The Little Vinegar Jar, Shui Yue
Ding-a-ling~
Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling~
Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling...
The bells swayed, emitting crisp sounds, starting from the edge of the hot spring in the backyard, then arriving at Su Han's room, the sound never stopped.
It wasn't until the next morning that the bell sound finally subsided.
Su Han let out a long sigh of satisfaction, wiped the sweat beads from his forehead, and fell into a deep sleep.
He didn't wake up from his dream until the sun was high in the sky.
"Hmm..."
Su Han stretched lazily, groggily reaching out to feel beside him subconsciously, but unfortunately, he touched nothing.
"When did she leave?"
Su Han sat up, looking at the room that only contained himself, and muttered.
Then he looked up, glancing at the sky outside through the window. At this moment, the sun was already setting in the west, the horizon dyed with orange-red clouds stretching for miles.
The evening breeze blew gently, making the tear bamboo rustle.
"Forget it, it's better she left. Otherwise, I'd still have to figure out a way to secretly go see Master."
Su Han shook his head and stopped dwelling on it.
He got up, got dressed, and prepared to go coax his Master.
"It's also fortunate that Master didn't know it was Senior Apprentice-Sister Wen Min, only thinking it was Xiao Bai, otherwise... Ugh~"
Su Han couldn't even imagine.
If she knew the truth, what kind of expression would his Master have?
Su Han waved his hand, using a Spell to clean up the water stains on the table and the floor, then nodded with satisfaction and went out.
Su Han's room was not far from Shui Yue's room, so after walking for a short while, Su Han had already arrived at the front of Shui Yue's room.
"Hoo!"
Su Han took a deep breath, "I hope I'm not too late."
Thump, thump, thump~
Thinking this, he raised his hand and gently knocked on Shui Yue's door.
There was no response.
"Not in the room?"
Su Han gently pushed the door, but found it locked.
"Strange."
Thump, thump, thump~
Su Han knocked a few more times gently, while curiously asking towards the room, "Master, are you there?"
But the result was still no response.
Su Han couldn't help but frown slightly, a hint of doubt rising in his heart.
"Normally, Master spends most of her time cultivating in her room. Why is there no movement today?"
"Could she not be in the room?"
"But if there's no one in the room, why would the door be locked?"
Thinking this, Su Han slightly mobilized his Divine Sense to check if there was anyone inside the room.
As soon as his Divine Sense probed out, a familiar aura entered Su Han's perception. It was his Master, Shui Yue.
Clearly, Shui Yue was in the room, but she seemed to deliberately not want to pay attention to Su Han.
Otherwise, with Shui Yue's strength in the Shangqing Realm, it would be impossible for her to have no reaction to Su Han's knocking, even in a state of cultivation.
"It's over."
"Is she really still sulking because of jealousy?"
Su Han rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
At the same time, he raised his hand to knock on the door again. This time, the knocking was more urgent, "Master, I know you're in there. Please open the door?"
But the result was that Shui Yue still didn't answer.
Thump, thump, thump...
Seeing this, Su Han stopped urging, but just kept knocking on the door.
He didn't believe that Shui Yue would really ignore him.
Indeed.
Seeing that Su Han was unwilling to leave for a long time, Shui Yue in the room finally opened her eyes and looked towards the door.
However, she acted as if she didn't know who was outside the door, and coldly asked, "Who?"
Seeing that Shui Yue finally spoke, Su Han couldn't help but let out a long sigh and quickly replied, "Master, it's me, Su Han."
However, Shui Yue didn't change her attitude because it was Su Han. She still spoke coldly, her tone full of distance.
"Oh, it's Su Han?"
"Shifu (Master) doesn't want to see guests right now. Please go back."
Hearing this, Su Han shook his head helplessly and murmured softly.
"I didn't expect that Master, who is usually as aloof as a celestial being, is actually a little vinegar jar."
As for leaving?
Of course, Su Han wouldn't leave just like that. After all, Shui Yue was only sulking and waiting for him to coax her because she was jealous.
If he really left, she would probably get truly angry.
Thinking this, Su Han directly used his magic power and gently pushed.
The door creaked open slowly.
Walking into the room, the layout inside was the same as always, quiet and secluded.
He saw that the Head Seat of Xiao Zhu Peak, Shui Yue, was sitting on a prayer mat with her back to Su Han.
She wore a plain white robe, her waterfall-like black hair casually tied up, fixed only with a single jade green hairpin.
A few strands of hair fell beside her fair, jade-like neck, adding a touch of ethereal charm.
Su Han had a smile on his face and quietly approached, looking at Shui Yue before him.
Her skin was delicate as snow, reflecting a faint, moist glow under the soft light in the room.
Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, long and slightly arched. When her eyes were closed, her long eyelashes occasionally trembled slightly, like the gentle fluttering of butterfly wings.
Below her straight, exquisite nose were lips that were naturally red without any makeup... Her whole person was like a secluded orchid in an empty valley.
Even just sitting quietly, her elegant posture made it impossible to ignore her presence.
It made people dare not approach easily, yet they couldn't help but be drawn to her.
"Master?"
Su Han sat opposite Shui Yue and spoke softly.
But Shui Yue acted as if she hadn't noticed Su Han's arrival, still keeping her eyes closed, focused on cultivating, completely ignoring Su Han.
Seeing this, Su Han didn't get discouraged. He raised his hand and gently traced Shui Yue's eyebrow.
"Master, are you angry?"
However, Shui Yue acted as if she hadn't heard him, showing no reaction at all.
"If you don't speak, I'll assume Master isn't angry."
Saying this, Su Han gently lifted Shui Yue and placed her on his lap.
This action finally made Shui Yue react.
She suddenly opened her eyes, a hint of annoyance flashing within them, and said in a displeased tone, "How dare I be angry with you?"
"You busy man, why do you have time to come see me, an old acquaintance, instead of accompanying your fox spirit?"
"Master, you are the most important person in my heart. No fox spirit can compare to you."
Su Han gently rested his head on Shui Yue's shoulder, smelling her natural fragrance.
"And..."
"If you're truly upset, just punish me. Any punishment is fine."
Looking at Su Han's sincere expression, the anger in Shui Yue's heart subsided a little. After all, she wasn't truly angry, just jealous.
"Hmph, all you do is sweet-talk to coax me."
Su Han smiled and gently kissed Shui Yue's cheek, "Master, my feelings for you are witnessed by heaven and earth. How could I be just coaxing you?"
"If you don't believe me, I can swear."
Shui Yue rolled her eyes at Su Han, "Who wants you to swear anything? I'm not someone who doesn't understand reason."
"It's just that you need to be more careful with your actions in the future, don't let everyone know."
Seeing Shui Yue's attitude soften, Su Han finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't worry, Master, I understand."
Immediately, Su Han struck while the iron was hot, "Master, how about I paint a picture for you? Consider it an apology."
Shui Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, a hint of suspicion flashing in her eyes, and scoffed softly.
"You can paint?"
"I've never seen you display such skill. Are you just trying to make me happy again, talking nonsense?"
Su Han looked confident, "Master, you're underestimating your disciple."
"Although I usually focus on cultivation, my painting skills are also quite accomplished."
"Today, I will showcase my skills for Master and will definitely open your eyes."
"However, I also need Master to cooperate a little..."
