They're eating what's in their bowl while eyeing what's in the pot.

Ling Yushuang didn't speak, she simply vanished from Chu Xinghe's palace.

After brewing the medicine, she carried the bowl into Lin Wentian's room.

A voice came from inside the room.

"Senior Brother, why didn't you say you were injured sooner? I should have come to see you much earlier."

Ling Yushuang paused in her tracks.

She raised an eyebrow.

No wonder Chu Xinghe told her to come over.

So this was the opportunity.

This Lin Wentian was quite calculating.

He actually thought of using a woman's jealousy as a tactic.

She walked in carrying the medicine.

Inside the room, Lin Wentian was still lying in bed.

A smile played on his pale face.

Seeing Ling Yushuang push the door open, his smile faded, replaced by an unnatural look.

Although he knew this was an act.

He didn't know if it would actually work.

The woman sitting by the bed was dressed in plain clothes, with a wooden hairpin in her hair.

She wore no makeup, yet her face was beautiful and her skin was snow-white.

Ling Yushuang was somewhat surprised after taking a look.

This was a woman whose appearance was not inferior to her own.

That ethereal temperament was perfectly displayed in this person.

This Lin Wentian was indeed quite meticulous.

If he had found a woman inferior to her, she naturally wouldn't have been qualified to make her jealous.

Now this scene was starting to look a bit interesting.

"Yushuang, let me explain..."

Looking at the silent Ling Yushuang.

Lin Wentian thought Ling Yushuang was angry and hurriedly tried to sit up to explain.

However, as soon as he exerted strength, he gasped in pain.

"Senior Brother, are you alright?"

The woman sitting by the bed rushed forward to comfort him.

Ling Yushuang pulled back the step she had taken forward.

"I came to see how you were doing."

"Drink this medicine in a moment."

Ling Yushuang set down the bowl and prepared to leave.

"Wait."

At that moment, Luo Qingshui, who was sitting by the bed, spoke up.

Ling Yushuang turned back to look at her.

"Is there something?"

"My Senior Brother saved you, after all. Is this your attitude?"

Ling Yushuang pursed her lips, killing intent surfacing in her heart.

Saved me?

Who is he putting on this self-directed show for? Truly disgusting.

But now was not the time.

"Thank you."

After saying that, she turned and left.

Luo Qingshui felt like she had punched a bale of cotton.

She turned her head to look at the dazed Lin Wentian.

She felt a bit depressed.

She originally thought Senior Brother belonged to her.

Who would have thought he'd fall for an iceberg?

"Senior Brother, she's already gone, and you still haven't snapped out of it. That Young Master was right, you really are a simp."

"What nonsense are you talking?"

"Bring the medicine over, I want to drink it. Didn't you see just now? She was going to come over too. If you hadn't been a step ahead, she might be taking care of me right now. Can't you have some situational awareness?"

Luo Qingshui gave an "oh".

"Her opinion of me has changed now. I really have to thank Brother Tianming."

Luo Qingshui's eyes darted around.

"Senior Brother, I want to meet that Destiny you keep talking about."

Hearing this.

He was about to readily agree, but the words reached his lips and he suddenly didn't want to say them.

He didn't know why such an emotion had surfaced.

"Senior Brother, are you mute? He helped you so much, I want to thank him."

Lin Wentian hesitated for a moment and could only reluctantly agree.

"Fine, help me up. I'll take you to see Brother Tianming."

A smile returned to Luo Qingshui's face.

When the two arrived at Chu Xinghe's room.

Chu Xinghe was playing chess with Dragon One and the others.

Naturally, it was Chu Xinghe against the nine of them, from Dragon One to Dragon Nine.

"Heh, Dragon Nine, do you think I'm blind? I've lost three chess pieces in just a moment."

"Master, you can't blame me. These pieces have minds of their own; they didn't want to stay on the board and begged me to take them away. I could only help the chess pieces for my own pleasure."

Chu Xinghe opened his mouth.

He had seen shameless people, but never anyone this shameless.

"Then what about these extra pieces?"

Dragon Eight coughed.

"Master, as I see it, Ninth Brother helped them escape just now, and to thank him, they turned from white to black."

Chu Xinghe was so angry he laughed.

Truly impressive.

Today his eyes had truly been opened.

There was actually someone—no, a Dragon—more shameless than him, Chu Xinghe.

"Then tell me, why did these white pieces of mine fall under the board?"

Dragon One pondered for a moment.

"Master, these white pieces didn't want to be controlled by you. They wanted to break free, so they dug holes and ran away on their own."

Chu Xinghe stood up.

Whack, whack, whack.

Dragon One through Dragon Nine looked aggrieved.

Looking at Chu Xinghe, who was hopping around clutching his fists.

They were speechless.

If you weren't our master, we could sit on you and crush you to death.

But Master had all the good stuff, so they had to protect him well.

"You nine bastards."

Dragon Two pulled Chu Xinghe back down to sit.

"Master, don't be angry."

"Master, although your strength is a bit weak, your Physical Body is a bit poor, and your looks are a bit lacking, you are still an invincible existence in our hearts."

Chu Xinghe didn't want to deal with these blockheads.

My goodness, my mood is like a roller coaster.

"Brother Tianming, are you there? I'm coming in."

Dragon One through Dragon Nine returned to normal.

Sitting in their positions, an Aura of natural dignity was revealed.

The two of them held back their laughter as they entered.

They hadn't expected to see such a petty side of Destiny.

Chu Xinghe glared at the nine Dragons.

"Brother Lin, what brings you here?"

Before Lin Wentian could speak.

Luo Qingshui was already impatient.

"You are Destiny?"

Chu Xinghe looked at Luo Qingshui, then turned to look at Lin Wentian.

"Brother Lin, you certainly have quite the luck with women."

Hearing Destiny's words, Lin Wentian's expression was a bit awkward.

He knew his Junior Sister had feelings for him.

In his eyes, Luo Qingshui was no different from a sister.

If it were before, he would definitely have explained.

But this time he didn't explain; he just gave an awkward smile.

Even Luo Qingshui was surprised.

She sized up Chu Xinghe from head to toe.

Handsomer than Senior Brother, taller, better temperament.

His strength should be great too, though she didn't know his background.

She didn't know what kind of abilities this guy actually had.

"Senior Brother, you go back first. I want to talk to him."

Lin Wentian was a bit hesitant.

He was afraid Chu Xinghe might have designs on his Junior Sister.

This Chu Xinghe in front of him understood women too well.

What if he spirited his Junior Sister away with just a few words?

"Oh, Senior Brother, hurry back. Nothing is going to happen."

Lin Wentian stood outside the door, his mouth twitching.

Was this still his cute little Junior Sister?

Dragon One and Dragon Nine had already left, spreading out around the area.

To prevent anyone from eavesdropping.

"I heard from Senior Brother that you are very good at chasing girls. If you met someone like me, how would you plan to pursue me?"

Chu Xinghe had a strange expression.

"I don't chase simps."

Luo Qingshui's expression froze.

Just now he had called her Senior Brother a simp.

Now she was being called a simp in return.

"The two of you, Senior Brother and Junior Sister, are quite interesting. Both are simps. What did your sect teach you?"

Luo Qingshui hesitated and stammered, not knowing how to answer.

"You came here for nothing more than to ask me how to pursue your Senior Brother, and because you don't like that Ling Yushuang."

"What makes you even more uncomfortable is that you've realized your Senior Brother brought you here to use you as a pawn."

"Looking at Brother Lin's behavior, if it were among your fellow disciples, he would frequently explain that he and you are just in a Senior Brother-Junior Sister relationship, yet in front of me, he actually didn't explain."

"What is he afraid of? He's afraid I'll steal you away."

"Brother Lin is quite greedy, eating from the bowl while eyeing the pot."
