The reason for Xie Hanyi's dissatisfaction with Zhan Qingfeng is obscure and cannot be stated directly. Whether as an elder or as the head of a village, he couldn't do too much. At most, he could only say a few sarcastic words.
In fact, speaking of it, Xie Hanyi was only in his thirties, only ten years older than Zhan Qingfeng. But because he became famous at a young age, he was of the same generation as the leader of the Qingcheng Sect and others.
"Master Xie is an elder, so it's only natural for him to give me a lesson." Zhan Qingfeng smiled to smooth things over.
Xie Hanyi glanced at him indifferently, said nothing, and took Ye Wuji straight out of the Huxin Pavilion.
Zhu Tan was waiting by the lake. When he saw Ye Wuji, he smiled and winked at her. Ye Wuji made a face at Xie Hanyi behind him.
Xie Hanyi seemed to have eyes behind him, and he hit Ye Wuji on the head with his backhand.
"Ouch, Master, why did you hit me?"
"You're a girl, you look weird and don't look right."
"Humph!" Ye Wuji wrinkled his nose, "Master, you favor boys over girls! Just because I am a girl, you don't love me now."
Xie Hanyi glared at him, but before he could say anything, he heard Zhu Tan yelling from the side: "Xiao Shisan, you have no conscience for what you said. If master doesn't love you, then we will all be picked from the garbage heap. That's right. Master even sent away the son of an old friend for you! Now don't run away from home just because you are jealous of a child!"
Ye Wuji's cheeks turned red and he rushed forward to tear Zhu Tan's mouth apart.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Who, who is jealous! How could I be jealous of a child!"
"Ouch, you're not jealous, just don't be jealous! Hey, don't pull my hair! It took me an hour to style my hair."
Xie Hanyi watched them playing around with a smile on his lips.
Zhan Qingfeng set off back to Qingcheng Sect that afternoon. Before leaving, Zhan Qingfeng suddenly stepped forward and hugged Ye Wuji.
"Wuji, what I said to you that day was all serious. After I have settled the affairs of the sect, I will propose marriage. Will you marry me?"
"Brother Zhan, let me go first." Ye Wuji was held by Zhan Qingfeng, and he didn't know where to put his hands.
Zhan Qingfeng let go of his hand as instructed.
"I think so," Ye Wuji tidied up his words, "Brother Zhan, you may have just made a mistake about your feelings. You see, we are good brothers who have experienced life and death together, and our friendship is extraordinary. Tell me honestly, Did you feel like me before you knew I was a woman?"
Zhan Qingfeng shook his head honestly. He was not Duanxiu. How could he like Ye Wuji when he thought he was a man.
"Look. So if you like me, you don't really like me. It's just because I'm a woman and the only woman around you who has experienced life and death with you, so you put that brotherly love in your heart. Friendship is regarded as the relationship between men and women."
"I'm not..."
"You are. Just imagine, if I were a man, would you still want to marry me, would you still be happy with me?"
"This, this is not the same thing. You are not a man."
"This is the same thing." Ye Wuji said firmly.
Zhan Qingfeng was so stunned by her that he didn't know what words to use to prove his sincerity.
"Okay." Ye Wuji patted his arm, "It's time for you to set off. From now on, don't mention this marriage proposal again."
Zhan Qingfeng got on the horse in confusion. After walking for a while, he straightened out his thoughts, turned around and shouted to Ye Wuji: "Wuji, you are wrong! I am happy with you, no matter what you become in the future No matter how you look at it, my feelings for you will not change! It doesn’t matter if you don’t accept me now, I will definitely let you accept me in the future!”
Xie Hanyi, who was walking out of the door, turned dark when he heard this. He flicked out the sandalwood bracelet beads on his wrist with a flick of his finger.
The ball hit Zhan Qingfeng's cheek, and he almost fell off his horse with an ouch.
"Master, you are really..."
Before Ye Wuji finished speaking, Xie Hanyi flicked her forehead with his finger.
"Have you finished your homework this afternoon?"
"Oh, Master, look at the beautiful weather today! It's so blue!"
"Go back and copy the Tao Te Ching twenty times."
"No, Master!"
"Thirty times."
