Chapter 277: In Love with Her? (1/2)
“It was obviously you who made a move first. Now you want to dishonor my reputation, and defame my heroic image? I had yet to ask you for the damage you caused me and you came asking me for compensation?” Cheng Yu laughed.
“Shameless! What reputation do you have? Even if there is one, it’s certainly a bad one. Is there a need for me to defame you? But you broke my sword and everyone saw it. You have to compensate me,” Ning Xue looked at Cheng Yu in disdain.
“Are you hungry?” Cheng Yu did not reply to her question, but changed to another topic.
“Huh…not hungry!” Ning Xue was startled. She was talking about compensation but why was he asking her another question? His line of thoughts had changed too fast, right?
“Hmm! Here!” Cheng Yu hummed before throwing a piece of roasted meat over to Ning Xue.

“…” Black lines immediately appeared on Ning Xue’s forehead. Didn’t this person understand her? She had clearly stated that she wasn’t hungry. However, when the roasted meat’s aroma assailed her nose, her stomach grumbled. Still, she spoke out firmly, ”I said I wasn’t hungry!”
“Stop being overly sensitive. I didn’t say it’s for you. I’m asking you to pass it over to small steamed bun,” Cheng Yu replied.
“You…hmph! If you want to give it to her, give it to her yourself. I’m not gonna do it for you,” Ning Xue blushed. She felt that Cheng Yu was purposely playing tricks on her.
“If you aren’t gonna do it, forget it. Since you aren’t going to help me, forget about your compensation,” Cheng Yu replied unconcernedly.
“You…then if I pass it over to her, will you compensate me for my sword?” Ning Xue was furious. This person was too shameless. He was clearly threatening her, yet he made it sound as if he was doing something out of goodwill.
“Maybe,” Cheng Yu replied nonchalantly.
“No. You must compensate me,” Ning Xue retorted firmly.
“Alright. I will consider it. But you have to deliver it first!” Cheng Yu did not raise any objection to her request, and instead stuffed the roasted meat into Ning Xue’s hand.
“Hmph! You better keep your promise. Otherwise, I will certainly not let you off!” Ning Xue looked at the roasted meat in her hand before walking off.
“Senior Brother, why did you give them roasted meat? Don’t tell me you have really taken a fancy to that girl!” Tian Xing enquired curiously.
“If I don’t give it out, can you finish all of it yourself? Besides, look at Huaxian Valley disciples. Each and everyone of them looked so exquisite and refined. Why would I not befriend them? In the future, if you wish to look for a wife, at least I can be a matchmaker for you,” Cheng Yu chuckled.
“Ah? I don’t need it. Thank you, Senior Brother, for your goodwill,” Sensing Tian Xue’s sharp glare, Tian Xing quivered as he replied hastily.
“Coward,” Cheng Yu replied disappointingly.
“Senior Brother, why are you calling that woman small steamed bun? Could it be that’s her childhood name? But why would Senior Brother know her childhood name?” At that time when Cheng Yu address Ning Xue as big steamed bun, his voice wasn’t very loud. So, they didn’t manage to hear it. Thus, Tian Xing still had yet to figure out the meaning behind it. Besides, childhood names were something very secretive. Especially for ladies, they wouldn’t randomly tell anyone their childhood name unless their relationship was very close. However, Cheng Yu had declared that the two of them did not even have any relationship. Wasn’t this a contradiction? Could it be that there was a secretive relationship between them?
“*Cough cough cough!* You are still young, so stop asking about it,” Cheng Yu choked when he heard Tian Xing’s words. Following that, he took a glance at Tian Xue’s chest, unsure if her’s were small or big steamed buns.
“Acting so mysterious. Just a look and I can tell it isn’t anything good!” Tian Xue commented icily.
“Heh heh. Women would never understand what men think of,” Cheng Yu laughed.
“Senior Sister, didn’t you get him to compensate your sword? Why did you bring a roasted meat back? Don’t tell me that’s the compensation for your sword?” Seeing Ning Xue had brought such a big piece of roasted meat back, Ning Zi inquired curiously.
“Hmph! This is for Junior Sister Wushuang,” Ning Xue voiced out her resentment.
“Wah! Senior Sister Wushuang, you still dare to say that there’s nothing going on between the two of you? See how caring he is for you,” Ning Zi cried out.
“Junior Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? Senior Sister, what’s going on?” Ning Wushuang was taken aback. She couldn’t understand what Cheng Yu was trying to do.
“How would I know? Alright, once I pass this to you, I have accomplished my mission. I’m going back to get my compensation,” Ning Xue replied ill-manneredly as she walked off.
