Chapter 29: Annoying, Always Flirting!:
Now, he could trick Gu Shengyan into giving her a chance to Su Xinyue.
"Alright, I'll give it to you!" Gu Shengyan agreed without hesitation.
As she spoke, she pulled off the jade pendant and handed it to Ling Ye.
After all, she had just picked it up; it wasn't valuable! Let him have it then!
Ling Ye took the jade pendant and nodded, "Alright, this matter no longer concerns you. You can leave now."
"Okay, okay!" Gu Shengyan nodded quickly and turned to leave. But suddenly, she stopped and looked back at Ling Ye, "Why did you help me?"
'Could it be that this guy likes me?'
'Otherwise, why would he help me so much for just a small jade pendant? '
'He's supposed to be cold-hearted, but he helped me!'
'Maybe he's got feelings for me? '
'But then, why didn't he catch me when I fell and even said it was on purpose? Could it be a trick to attract me?'
Ling Ye, seeing Gu Shengyan's expression, knew what she was thinking.
He didn't answer her stupid question, just said calmly, "Aren't you leaving? If the Sect Master comes, you won't be able to leave."
Hearing this, Gu Shengyan quickly dismissed her thoughts and hurried away. "I was never here; this is all on you guys. You promised!"
As Gu Shengyan's fleeing figure disappeared, Su Xinyue frowned slightly. "Master, why did you help her?"
She couldn't understand why her master would help Gu Shengyan. Why help her?
Ling Ye just smiled faintly, "Put away these Golden Spirit Fruits, they're all yours!"
"This..." Su Xinyue was shocked and then felt deeply touched. So, Master did it all for me!
"But what if the Sect Master blames us..." Su Xinyue hesitated. She couldn't bear the blame if the Sect Master found out.
"She's my woman, what are a few fruits?" Ling Ye chuckled.
Forget a few fruits, even if he uprooted the whole tree, Ji Ziru wouldn't complain.
Hearing this, Su Xinyue lowered her head slightly.
Yes, the Sect Master was Master's woman; she wouldn't care if he took a few fruits.
"Of course, Your Majesty's request is my command!" A voice suddenly rang out, and Ji Ziru appeared from a distance, landing in front of Ling Ye.
"Greetings, Sect Master!" Su Xinyue greeted quickly, frowning slightly.
Your Majesty?
Again with this title!
The Sect Master, like my mother, addresses Master as 'Your Majesty!'
So, they're both Master's concubines. I wonder if Master has any other concubines besides them?
"But... I did spend several years caring for these Golden Spirit Fruits. Even if they're taken, it still hurts a bit!" Ji Ziru approached, wrapping her slender arm around Ling Ye's. "Shouldn't Your Majesty compensate me?"
She had arrived earlier and knew it was Gu Shengyan who took the fruits. But since Ling Ye had resolved the issue, she wouldn't pursue it further.
"What kind of compensation do you want?" Ling Ye asked, wrapping his arm around Ji Ziru's waist without hesitation.
Seeing this, Su Xinyue quickly averted her gaze.
'It was annoying, I can only watch Master flirt with other women! When will it be my turn? Divine Spirit Realm! I need to work hard and reach Master's requirements soon!'
"Your Majesty, you smell like another woman." Ji Ziru whispered, noticing a detail only women would.
"This scent, could it be..." Ji Ziru wrapped her arms around Ling Ye's neck and turned to look at Su Xinyue. The scent was quite similar to hers!
Noticing Ji Ziru's gaze, Su Xinyue blushed. "Not... it's not me!" Although she wished it were her, it was actually her mother's scent. Her mother's scent was indeed similar to hers!
"You take this," Ling Ye tossed the jade pendant to Su Xinyue. "In a few days... this will be very useful."
"Very useful?" Su Xinyue didn't understand. How could a small jade pendant be so useful? But she still caught it. If Master says so, there must be a reason!
Ling Ye then picked up Ji Ziru and headed to the room.
"Haha, weren't the other women outside able to satisfy Your Majesty?" Ji Ziru teased. "Or is it that... I suit Your Majesty's taste more?"
Su Xinyue watched Ling Ye and Ji Ziru leave, pouting.
"Annoying, always flirting! When it's my turn, I'll cling to Master every day. Day and night!"
