The teapot in Hua Tingxuan's hand made a light "click" sound, and the cracks spread rapidly, but no one noticed this small detail. Ye Bailu asked in surprise: "How do you know the name of the little sister?"
Hua Tingxuan also suddenly looked at Chu Danfeng, and even forgot to repair the teapot, letting the tea drip down.
Chu Danfeng: “…” Damn, he spoke too fast!
While Chu Danfeng was thinking quickly about how to explain, Ye Bailu suddenly asked himself, "Huang Changtian said that, right? No wonder I saw you two whispering together this morning. When did your relationship become so good?"
Chu Danfeng secretly exhaled and said vaguely: "We are all fellow disciples. Third Senior Brother is well-informed."
Ye Bailu wanted to say something else, but Chu Danfeng quickly changed the subject: "I wonder who will take care of my junior sister this time. Xuan'er happens to be alone and has no playmates..."
As expected, before he finished speaking, Ye Bailu glared at Chu Danfeng with her almond-shaped eyes and pinched his face hard, "You little brat, have you grown wings? How dare you tease your senior sister!"
Then it was blown away like a gust of wind.
Chu Danfeng rubbed his face with a grin, looking at her back, but couldn't help laughing: This is to fight for custody. By the way, why does Senior Sister like children so much
Anyway, the heroine is finally going to appear!
Lin Shu'er could be considered his "former goddess", but when this name was mentioned, Chu Danfeng felt no emotion at all.
In his previous life, he did his best to be a bootlicker and tried to please Lin Shuer in every way, but he failed to win the heart of the beauty. Even according to the plot, after his death, Lin Shuer would give the Soul-Reading Pearl that he exchanged for his life to Hua Tingxuan, whom she admired.
But Chu Danfeng did not resent her.
There is no need for a reason to dislike someone. Just because you have given something does not mean that the other person must respond to you. Chu Danfeng understands this. Besides, he is just doing a mission and has not given any real feelings.
However, without this "villain" of his to mess things up this time, their relationship should be smoother. Knowing each other at such a young age, they are truly childhood sweethearts. They have grown up from little babes into graceful young girls and handsome young boys, growing up and experiencing things together. It's a beautiful thought.
Chu Danfeng looked at Hua Tingxuan lovingly and asked curiously, "Do you want to meet Junior Sister?"
Little Dumpling's face darkened visibly: "I don't want to!"
"Tsk." Chu Danfeng continued to crunch the melon seeds, complaining in his heart: the child's sense of crisis. After the junior sister entered the sect, Hua Tingxuan was no longer the youngest child in the sect.
But it’s not his fault. Isn’t it the nature of young cubs to compete for favor
"Tsk, you will regret it later, the new junior sister is your future wife." Chu Danfeng thought.
"You really don't want to go and take a look? It's still not too late to catch up with Second Senior Sister now."
Lin Shu'er had just been brought back and should be at her master's Qingshanju now. It was not far from Xufeng and it would only take an incense stick of time to walk there.
"Forget it. If you don't go, I'll go by myself." Chu Danfeng patted the melon seed crumbs on his body and said eagerly.
Come to think of it, he hasn't paid close attention to what his junior sister looked like when she was a child. In his previous life, in order to be able to fully "secretly love his junior sister", Chu Danfeng tried his best to avoid contact with Lin Shuer when she was young.
After all, it's hard to develop romantic feelings for someone if you're deeply impressed by the way she looks when she's changing her diaper.
Otherwise it would be too abnormal.
As soon as Chu Danfeng stood up, he felt someone pulling at his collar. He lowered his head and saw that the little girl was pursing her lips tightly, with a face so gloomy that water could be wrung out of it.
"Don't go!"
His junior brother has always been well-behaved and obedient. He would never go west when his senior brother points the way east, or chase a dog or a chicken when he is told to. He has been even more submissive these days, and would readily agree to any request made by Chu Danfeng. This was the first time that Chu Danfeng spoke in such a tough tone. The little boy had extremely low air pressure all over his body, and he looked like a storm was about to come.
But Chu Danfeng was not afraid of the little brat's threats at all. Instead, he was amused: "What? I went to see my junior sister, are you jealous?"
Hua Tingxuan lowered his eyes and pursed his lips.
Jealous, so jealous that it is unbearable, so jealous that you want to cut the grass completely and not give her the chance to grow up and seduce you.
"Okay, okay, Fifth Brother promises you that I still like Xuan'er the most, okay?" Chu Danfeng thought that the little boy's jealous look was a little cute and rubbed his little head.
Hua Tingxuan still tightly grasped his clothes, "Brother, do you really want to see it?"
Chu Danfeng thought it was fun to tease children, so he deliberately said, "You must watch it."
Hua Tingxuan: "... Then I'll go with my brother." He didn't want Chu Danfeng to meet Lin Shu'er alone, even though Lin Shu'er was still just a baby.
Chu Danfeng smiled and said, "Let's go."
You see, children are children. When they hear that there are new friends, they actually want to get close to them.
The big and the small, each with their own thoughts, walked along the bluestone path towards Meng Cangyu's Qingshanju.
There was a lush bamboo forest outside Qingshanju. When two or three children in the yard saw Chu Danfeng, they stopped playing, but they didn't show much respect to him. They just nodded from a distance as a greeting.
Chu Danfeng didn't care. In the world of cultivation, the strong are respected, especially in a big sect like Shuangji Sect, which values strength more. An inner disciple who stopped at the foundation-building stage is not as well-known as some outer disciples. Even the little boy knows how to judge people by their status, so no one intends to go in and report for him.
In fact, there was no need to report. The next moment, Meng Cangyu's voice came from inside the door: "Danfeng, Tingxuan, come in."
Upon hearing this, Chu Danfeng respectfully replied "yes", but Hua Tingxuan lagged behind him by a few steps and did not follow in immediately. Instead, he walked towards the direction of the children.
Chu Danfeng didn't notice Hua Tingxuan's little action at all. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lin Shuer at a glance.
The junior sister was very different from what he remembered.
Chu Danfeng's impression of Lin Shu'er remained that of a slim and pretty girl, but now, the little girl was only four or five years old. She was wearing a pomegranate red double-breasted jacket, with two small buns on her head. She was sucking her fingers with relish, and suddenly saw a stranger and shyly hid behind Ye Bailu.
I didn't expect that the second senior sister had become familiar with the little girl.
Today, Master's Qingshan Residence is particularly lively. Except for Fourth Senior Brother Fang Qingya who is still in seclusion to recuperate, all other Senior Brothers are present. No wonder, she is the child of the Master's clansman and a closed disciple, so the pageantry is naturally much bigger than that of Hua Tingxuan... Wait, where is Hua Tingxuan
Only then did Chu Danfeng realize that his junior fellow apprentice did not follow him in.
"Shu'er, nice to meet your fifth senior brother." Just at this moment, Meng Cangyu spoke.
Lin Shu'er was still very shy. Ye Bailu coaxed her for a long time before she poked her little head out from behind her and walked slowly to Chu Danfeng.
Just when everyone thought that the child would at most timidly call out "Senior Brother" and then run back to Ye Bailu, the little girl suddenly smiled sweetly at Chu Danfeng, stretched out her short hands, and said softly, "Fifth Senior Brother, hold me!"
It was at this time that Hua Tingxuan entered.
The words "Fifth Senior Brother" melted Chu Danfeng's heart.
Ahhhh, is this the joy of raising a daughter
Are all little girls so good at acting cute?! They seem to be more cute than boys.
Chu Danfeng half-knelt down, still a little nervous, always feeling that the little girl was more delicate than his own brat. He carefully opened his arms and was about to hug her, but saw a white shadow flash in front of him, and the little girl in the mini disciple uniform pushed Lin Shuer away: "Don't touch my brother!"
Lin Shu'er, who was pushed away, cried out "Wow". The little girl was soft and sweet when she was begging for a hug, but she didn't expect that her crying would be so earth-shaking that the flower-protecting bells under the eaves even jingled.
Chu Danfeng was in a state of confusion, feeling quite guilty that his son had gotten into trouble. He wanted to strip Hua Tingxuan of his pants and give him a good spanking on the spot.
Chu Danfeng's face darkened: "How could you bully Junior Sister?"
But Hua Tingxuan flattened his lips and said aggrievedly: "Junior Brother, you are lying! You just said that even if you have a junior sister, you still like Xuan'er the most."
"..." Chu Danfeng's momentum suddenly weakened. It was true, but...
The little girl was crying so hard that she almost hiccupped. Chu Danfeng became serious again: "But you can't make a girl cry. Look how pitiful Junior Sister is crying."
Hua Tingxuan: “…”
Hua Tingxuan pursed his lips tightly, as if he was making some important decision.
Chu Danfeng felt that letting children say "I'm sorry" was also an important education, so he patiently said, "Look, Xiao Shu'er is crying so hard that it makes people feel sorry for her. Even Senior Brother feels sorry for her." Senior Brother feels sorry for her, so you are her future husband, shouldn't you feel even more sorry for her? Go and apologize to Junior Sister immediately. The skill of coaxing girls should be learned from childhood!
Hua Tingxuan finally made up his mind, looked at the brothers and sisters around him, and opened his mouth as if he had given up...
Under Chu Danfeng's expectant eyes, she burst into tears with a sound even louder than Lin Shuer's.
Chu Danfeng: “… ?!” Shouldn’t this be an apology? What are you doing
Lin Shu'er was also confused by this operation. She blinked her round eyes and looked at Hua Tingxuan blankly. Suddenly, she took a deep breath, and as if in a competition, she cried even louder.
For a while, the crying of children in Qingshanju was heard one after another. Meng Cangyu liked quietness, and he could not stand the crying of the children. In less than half an incense stick of time, he waved his hand and sent all his disciples out.
When he walked out of the courtyard with Hua Tingxuan, the children guarding the door suddenly bowed deeply to Chu Danfeng in unison. This respectful attitude really scared him, but Chu Danfeng didn't have time to think about why they were so rude at first and then respectful. He saw Xiao Shuer turn back somehow and stubbornly opened her little hands to Chu Danfeng: "Hold me!"
Xiao Hua Tingxuan stood in front of his junior brother, and his tone was so cold that it could freeze someone to death: "Get out of the way."
Xiao Shuer was frightened and burst into tears again, but she still bravely said in a sobbing voice: "Fifth Senior Brother is handsome, Shuer likes Fifth Senior Brother!"
Chu Danfeng: “… …” I never expected that the word “like” that I had tried so hard for my whole life in the previous life but never heard, would now come to me without any effort.
But the gold content is very low, and this 10,000 percent is that the little girl is deliberately trying to anger Hua Tingxuan.
Moreover, the word "like" came from the mouth of a baby with snot bubbles coming out of his eyes. There was no sense of accomplishment at all. Chu Danfeng felt that the last bit of "admiration" he had for Lin Shuer was shattered along with the snot bubbles.
