【As the saying goes, “A wise man submits to circumstances.”】

【Ji Lingqing felt that he was that wise man.】

【To give his good friend some precious space, he decisively came up with the perfect excuse to leave.】

【Fellow Immortal Ye, I am your ultimate wingman!】

【After giving Ye Yu a subtle glance that said, “my job here is done”, Ji Lingqing immediately prepared to leave.】

【But just as he turned, someone grabbed his sleeve tightly.】

【Turning his head, he saw that it was Ye Yu.】

【Ji Lingqing was confused.】

【Fellow Immortal, what’s the meaning of this? Do you want me to set up a concealment barrier for you two before I go?】

【Hmm, makes sense.】

【Everyone in Tiandi Pavilion knows Sect Master Shen Bishang has feelings for Elder Zhong Qin.】

【Brother, even if you’re a beast, there’s no need to butt heads directly with Shen Bishang!】

【Keeping things discreet is a good move.】

【With that thought in mind, Ji Lingqing decisively pulled out a formation jade stone of extremely high value and crushed it in one go.】

【A barrier instantly spread out, covering a radius of twenty meters.】

【This sudden action stunned both Ye Yu and Zhong Qin.】

【Everything was fine. Why are you throwing a barrier out of nowhere?】

【No, wait, we didn’t even say anything yet. And you already threw down a barrier—what exactly are you trying to do?】

【Before Ye Yu or Zhong Qin could ask, Ji Lingqing said very seriously: Elder Zhong, Fellow Immortal Ye—please feel free to talk here.】

【I’ll keep watch outside. I guarantee, no one will disturb you.】

【Hearing that—Ye Yu took a tactical half-step back.】

【You bastard, you’ve seriously misunderstood, haven’t you!?】

【Zhong Qin also seemed to realize what was going on, and couldn’t help but giggle.】

【That charming laugh grated painfully on Ye Yu’s ears.】

【He immediately wanted to step forward and explain to Ji Lingqing.】

【But Ji Lingqing solemnly pounded his chest and said in a deep voice, Between brothers, some things need no words.】

【I’m off!】

【Off your head!】

【Ye Yu directly pulled Ji Lingqing back when he was about to leave.】

【Gritting his teeth, he said, Can you stop jumping to conclusions? Me and Elder Zhong….there’s nothing going on. Got it?】

【Ji Lingqing blinked, then sighed softly.】

【Tilting his head back at a forty-five degree angle, he gazed wistfully at the sky, his face full of disappointment.】

【So you still don’t trust me, huh?】

【Am I not a brother to you?】

【But don’t worry. Even if you think that way about me, I still see you as a brother.】

【I swear, I won’t tell anyone about you and Elder Zhong being together.】

【Ye Yu’s breathing began to grow heavier.】

【At this point, he was ready to kill someone.】

【Yet in the end, he held it in.】

【But the anger still needed to be roared out.】

【A’Qing! I’m telling you right now—me and Elder Zhong are completely innocent!】

【This is only the third time we’ve even met! Nothing’s happened between us!】

【Can you please stop imagining things?】

【Ye Yu’s sudden outburst left Ji Lingqing standing there in a daze.】

【He seemed so worked up, it didn’t look like an act.】

【Ji Lingqing murmured in a small voice: Could it be… I really misunderstood?】

【Ye Yu answered decisively: Of course you did! If you don’t believe me, ask Elder Zhong yourself!】

【At that, Ji Lingqing instinctively turned to look at Zhong Qin.】

【Only for her to drop a bombshell with a casual smile:】

【Honestly, I don’t think there’s any need to be so nervous. Relationships like this can’t stay hidden forever anyway. Wouldn’t it be better to just admit it?】

【This sentence made Ye Yu suck in a sharp breath.】

【He looked at Zhong Qin in disbelief, only to find that her beautiful eyes were filled with amusement.】

【Alright, alright… so this is how you want to play it?】

【Can’t afford to offend, but I can definitely avoid you!】

【Ye Yu turned and broke through the barrier, leaving without hesitation!】

【At this point, he had completely given up on explaining.】

【What was the point?】

【Zhong Qin was clearly set on muddying the waters.】

【Add to that a Ji Lingqing full of misunderstandings…】

【In this situation, Ye Yu couldn’t explain his way out of it even if he had a hundred mouths. Even diving into the Yellow River wouldn’t wash him clean.】

【Since that’s the case, what’s the use of explaining?】

【Watching Ye Yu leave in clear frustration, Zhong Qin’s smile grew even more radiant.】

【Originally, she’d only come here to confirm a few details about what had happened outside the Suxin Sect.】

【And maybe ask if he had noticed anything strange.】

【If he had, then hopefully he’d keep it to himself.】

【But who would’ve thought—after arriving here, she’d end up being mistaken for something else.】

【And since things had already been said to that extent…naturally, Zhong Qin’s playful side flared up.】

【She had to admit, this was too much fun.】

【It had been a very, very long time since Zhong Qin had laughed so freely.】

【Off to the side, Ji Lingqing muttered sulkily: Running off that fast—what a bastard. I already thought something was fishy when he was talking about writing love letters.】

【Never thought it had gotten to this point, and he’s still trying to hide it from me.】

【In Ji Lingqing’s heart, he instinctively assumed that a few hours ago, when Ye Yu left saying he had to retrieve a love letter—it was just an excuse.】

【Sneaking off to meet Zhong Qin in secret was the real reason.】

【Otherwise, why would Ye Yu have been in such a hurry back then?】

【You can write a love letter at any time, but if you make the fairy wait too long, that would be a serious matter.】

【When Zhong Qin heard the words “love letter”—her interest instantly spiked, and she quickly asked: You knew he wrote a love letter?】

【Ji Lingqing shook his head and said: I didn’t see it with my own eyes, but he said he had fallen for a certain fairy and had already written a love letter.】

【I’m guessing… the person he likes must be you, right?】

【Zhong Qin didn’t say a word.】

【But come on, who else could it be but me?】

【Looks like—it really wasn’t a misunderstanding. Just one of Ye Yu’s little tricks.】

【Not gonna lie, it’s kind of cute.】

【So, Ye Yu…what was that sudden exit supposed to mean?】

【Were you embarrassed?】

【Thinking of this, the corners of Zhong Qin’s mouth once again began to curl up.】

【But just at that moment—the surrounding barrier suddenly shattered completely!】

【A figure slowly emerged.】

【The newcomer—was none other than Tiandi Pavilion’s Master, Shen Bishang.】

【Seeing him appear, Ji Lingqing’s face was filled with horror.】

【He had no idea how to react.】

【The whole point of setting up that barrier earlier—was to give Ye Yu and Zhong Qin some quiet alone time without getting discovered by Sect Master Shen Bishang.】

【But now, it was clear—Shen Bishang’s strength far exceeded what he’d imagined. The barrier meant absolutely nothing before him.】

【So now… how was he supposed to explain this?】

【Ji Lingqing’s brain immediately kicked into overdrive.】

【But unexpectedly, it was Shen Bishang who spoke first.】

【Ji family kid, go visit your old ancestor when you have time. He’s been missing you quite a bit.】

【Also, there are too many unknowns in the future. My place here might not be so safe. You might want to consider returning to the Ji family.】

【Of course, I’m not trying to drive you away. Whether you stay or leave—that’s up to you.】
