335 He Took His Bird ou (1/2)
In the adjourning room, Su Yan's eyes widened and he turned to look at Nie Chang incredulously. ”The Sect Master is right. Elder Yue really knows how to sweet-talk someone! How is the Sect Master good-looking? You're much more good-looking than him!”
Nie Chang reached over and ruffled his darling's head. ”Seems like Elder Yue isn't the only one who knows how to sweet-talk someone. You also said that quite nicely just now.”
Su Yan beamed. ”Naturally! I'm a naturally sweet person.”
”Mn. The best boyfriend I could have found.”
Su Yan's lips curled up even further and he leaned over to give Nie Chang a kiss. Just when their lips were about to touch the people next door spoke up again. Or, well, Xue Chang Fu did.
”Mn! Ah Gang!”
Su Yan stopped and waited for what else he would say but there was nothing. Su Yan frowned. ”What are they doing? Do you think things are progressing? Will we finish the special mission until tomorrow?”
Nie Chang looked away. This Sect Master … Couldn't cultivators put down some formation that would block sounds? Why hadn't they done that if they really wanted to start things? Weren't they afraid of people hearing them? Nie Chang only considered that question for a moment before rubbing the spot between his brows. Naturally, Xue Chang Fu wasn't worried about such a thing at all. He might be like Su Yan a lot but he was even more prone to stirring up trouble and felt like the whole world should follow his words. Coupled with the fact that he didn't seem to think clinging to a man and making hidden insinuations all day was shameful, he would probably feel that this wasn't a big deal. In fact, with that kind of personality, he'd probably laugh if someone asked him and respond that he had such a nice voice, it was only natural people wanted to listen to it.
”Ah Chang!” Su Yan tugged at his boyfriend's sleeve again. ”What are they doing? Do you think Elder Yue really wants to punish the Sect Master? Then shouldn't we go and intervene after all?”
Nie Chang turned back with a sigh. ”Darling, that's —”
”Ah!” A yelp from next door interrupted him. ”Ah Gang! Mn … Yes!”
Nie Chang cleared his throat. ”Uh … It doesn't sound like he's being punished.” At least not in the way Su Yan thought he was.
Su Yan blinked and tilted his head. That had really not sounded as if the Elder was punishing him. But what were they doing then?
Nie Chang could already see the impending question. Now, what was he supposed to do? Tell him that Elder Yue had taken his bird out right after Xue Chang Fu asked him to punish him? He really was afraid what kind of thing his darling would come up with. But he couldn't lie either. After all, Xue Chang Fu was so talkative. Who knew what he would be saying tomorrow on the way back to the sect? If he gave things away, Su Yan would be angry. And he would be right to do so. He shouldn't lie to him just to make things easier for himself. That left the question of what he should do instead though. He didn't want to start a lengthy explanation either.
”Ah Gang …”
Nie Chang stood up and grabbed Su Yan's hand. The longer they stayed here, the more likely it was for him to ask anything. He better shouldn't risk it. ”Uh … Let's go for a stroll.”
”Ah?” Su Yan looked to the window and frowned. ”But it's already getting dark.”
”That …” Nie Chang cleared his throat. ”Taking a moonlight stroll is really romantic. I'm sure the system will count it as a milestone of our relationship.”
”Really?”
”Really.” Nie Chang didn't wait for Su Yan to decide and pulled him out of the room. Unfortunately, the corridor was right outside of the rooms and the door wasn't thick enough to prevent sounds from leaking out. Xue Chang Fu's voice could still be heard clearly.
”Ah Gang! Mn! Faster!”
Su Yan stopped and turned to the door.
Nie Chang suppressed a curse. ”Darling …”
