”Eldest Miss, Servant Bai Wei …”
”Eldest Miss, Servant …”
”Eldest Miss, Servant's Artemisia selengensis ….”
Everyone introduced him in a respectful manner until the last person said, ”Eldest Miss, Servant Lv Zhi …”
When Lian Si Yue heard the last voice, she put down the bowl in her hands and raised her head. She saw maidservants kneeling in front of him with a water like silver red coat and indigo vest, all of them with respectful expressions, but this Lv Zhi however had a calmer and more composed expression than the others, especially her eyes. Although they seemed respectful, they were calm without any ripples, not like a servant who only knew how to lower her head.
Lian Si Yue saw through the most hypocritical aspect of the world.
She glanced at Lv Zhi indifferently and instructed, ”Bai Wei and mama tai will be staying in the inner room, the rest of you wait outside.”
”Yes.” Everyone stood up and returned to their respective seats. Lian Si Yue's gaze was fixated on the back of the snow twig, and then slowly moved down, stopping at her feet.
After they left, she got up and walked to the window to look at the Begonia flower under the window. Although the autumnal equinox was approaching, the Begonia flower was still flourishing with leaves, causing her heart to freeze, she suddenly remembered that she had not seen Lian Jue for the past few days, and asked:
”Eldest Young Master has been here for the past two days.”
Qing Dai stepped forward, ”That day when young miss was drunk, Eldest Young Master did not come to visit again after leaving this place.”
”Oh?” Lian Jue had always been attached to her, so it was rare for him to suddenly disappear like this.
”Servant heard that Master invited experts to teach Young Master martial arts. Eldest Young Master needs to read and learn martial arts, maybe he is extremely busy.” Jiang Xiang said from the side, and her eyes shone a little when she mentioned Lian Jue.
Lian Si Yue raised her head and looked at the sky, at this time, there were no clouds in the distance, the sky was clear, she suddenly became interested and said, ”I will go and see him.”
All the way to Lian Jue's Wen Hua Yuan, before he even entered the courtyard, he heard the sound of people training their swords — —
”The young master, he...” Just as Jiang Xiang was about to speak up in excitement, she raised his hand and stopped her.
”You may leave.”
Lian Si Yue stood at the door, looking at the young man in white who was practicing his sword, his gaze was like a torch, firm and cold, holding onto a treasure sword, his sword techniques were sharp and ruthless, his techniques were ever-changing, although he was not close, but he could already feel a strong Sword Qi, only then did Lian Si Yue realized, that Lian Jue was already so powerful, her face slowly revealed a smile.
But, as she looked, her heart suddenly jumped, she realised that something was amiss with Lian Jue, the sword technique looked sharp and fierce, but was actually … His aura was in disorder —
What's wrong? Did he have something on his mind?
She stood there all the time, quietly watching him practice the sword, watching him practice until his forehead was covered in sweat and his gown was soaked through.
Lian Jue retracted his sword, and turned to look at Lian Si Yue, his eyes flickering.
”Elder sister …”
Lian Si Yue walked forward with a smile on her face and took out a handkerchief from her sleeves. She looked at him seriously and wiped the sweat on his forehead gently.
The two of them stood under the banyan tree. The silhouettes of the sunlight fell on their bodies, giving them a feeling of purity and beauty that would last for many years.
Lian Jue looked at Lian Si Yue. When the wind blew and his long hair brushed against his eyes, it seemed as if there were thousands of words in his eyes.
Lian Si Yue felt this gaze, and her hand paused, and she asked: ”Jue Er, do you have something on your mind?”
Lian Jue suddenly held Zhu Le Ta De's hand, causing her to stop wiping his sweat, and asked: ”Big sister, will you leave me?”
Lian Si Yue was startled, ”Jue Er, what happened? Why did you suddenly ask such a stupid question?”
”Answer me.” Lian Jue, on the other hand, was like a sincere child, insisting on an answer.
Lian Si Yue raised her eyes and looked at him, and said: You are my brother, how can I leave you, I will never leave you.
”If... Not my brother? ” Lian Jue paused, and an undetectable sense of loss flashed past his eyes as he asked.
”Jue Er...” Lian Si Yue looked at him in surprise.
”Haha, it's fine. I was thinking that if I were the elder brother, I would be able to protect you even better.” Lian Jue suddenly burst out laughing.
Lian Si Yue was startled, then laughed: ”Truly mischievous.”
The haze in Lian Jue's eyes seemed to have disappeared in an instant. He casually gestured with the treasured sword in his hand and said, ”Master said that my sword technique has improved very quickly. Elder sister, should I teach you?”
