Chapter 239: Awkward Situation (1/2)
”Uhh- Elder Shan?”
Yang Wei held a nervous expression when Elder Shan remained still for the past few minutes.
Elder Shan seemed to be frozen in place, almost like a statue without any hint of life emitting from it.
”What should I do now?” Yang Wei muttered softly to himself as he doesn't know how to deal with this situation.
'Why did I lose concentration in the surrounding area when I focused my mind?' Yang Wei blamed himself for causing Elder Shan to turn into this state.
Although Elder Shan seemed to be flirtatious, Yang Wei knew it was just on the surface when in reality, Elder Shan was the conservative type.
Living his second life, Yang Wei had seen multiple kinds of people in life so that he wouldn't be a naive fool when dealing with others.
Sometime later, Elder Shan finally snapped out of her daze as she slowly touched her lips with her hands.
She rubbed it gently before the scene of her being kissed by Yang Wei flashed upon her vision.
She started gasping for breaths as she took a seat down. Her action also made Yang Wei realize she had regained her senses.
However, Yang Wei didn't dare to approach her carelessly at the moment and remained a certain distance.
Standing from afar, Yang Wei started explaining himself and how he didn't have any nefarious intent toward her.
”E-Elder Shan, I really didn't mean to take advantage of you.” Yang Wei said.
And he continued, ”If you want to punish me for it then this Yang Wei is really to accept any kind of punishment.”
As a man, this matter was his fault and there's no way he would forgive himself if he didn't try to salvage this awkward situation.
Meanwhile, Elder Shan bit her rosy lips softly as she glared at Yang Wei.
”Are you really willing to accept any form of punishment?” She then asked him.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
”I'm serious about this.” Yang Wei added, showing his sincere expression as he wanted to apologize for his action.
Elder Shan smiled briefly. ”In that case, you are going to be in charge of investigating the traitors in the sect. Although this could be a scheme created by Tang Xin, it doesn't mean those traitors should be let off easily.”
”Understood, I will do my best.” Yang Wei didn't refuse this time since he was in the wrong. As he prepared to leave the room to begin his investigation, Elder Shan halted his movement.
”Not so fast Yang Wei.” Elder Shan shouted. ”That is just the first punishment or did you really think that stealing a maiden's kiss is this easy?”
Yang Wei laughed awkwardly as he walked back and asked her in a low tone. ”What other form of punishment does Elder Shan have for me?”
”Who knows but lately, I have been overworking a lot.” Elder Shan replied as she massaged her shoulders lightly.
It was clear that she was indicating her shoulders have been sore for a long time due to working as an elder.
