Chapter 387 Stars
"Yun Ci!"
Yun Ci looked in the direction of the sound.
At the door, Ye Qingqing was waving with a bright smile.
Su Wanqing, Xu Tianwei, and Yu Dongsheng, who were standing next to her, also looked delighted.
Yun Ci immediately put down the communication device, a delighted smile spreading across her face.
I didn't expect that Senior Sister Qingqing and the others had just said they had arrived at the sect, and now they've arrived so quickly.
"Junior Brother Yun."
"Yun Ci!"
"Yun Ci, ahhh, I miss you so much!"
Ye Qingqing stood in front of Yun Ci, looking at him with her eyes reflecting the stunningly handsome young man before her. "Yun Ci, you look so good."
As she spoke, the amazement in her eyes was almost overflowing.
Although she often looks for images of Yun Ci shared by others in the group, at this moment, she wants to say that no image can be as vivid as a real person!
In the blink of an eye, with a glance upwards, everything came alive.
Su Wanqing's eyes also held a look of amazement.
Unexpectedly, four years have passed, and Junior Brother Yun has grown into such a stunningly talented man. Just his presence here makes the restaurant shine even brighter.
Yun Ci said with a smile, "Senior Sister Qingqing and Senior Sister Wanqing have become even more beautiful."
Ye Qingqing looked down at herself and couldn't help but happily spin around. "Really? There's no change, but I think I've lost weight."
Ye Qingqing huffed, "It must be because you didn't eat properly."
Su Wanqing said in a serious tone, "Yes, I didn't eat properly. Last night I ate a big bowl of spicy hot pot and dozens of fried skewers."
"Ugh, Wanqing, you're ruining my chance!"
Yun Ci was amused. "You've had a long and tiring journey, so I've prepared a welcome feast for my senior brothers and sisters."
As she spoke, Yun Ci winked at Ye Qingqing, "I promised Senior Sister."
Upon hearing this, the expressions on their faces instantly became even more excited.
"Ahhh, Yun Ci, you're so kind!"
"Thank you for your trouble, Junior Brother Yun."
"Yun Ci, you have no idea how worried I was about you! In the beginning, Wan Qing and I cried every day." Ye Qingqing seemed to have endless things to say as soon as she saw Yun Ci.
Su Wanqing, "...I didn't."
Ye Qingqing: "You're undermining me again! Who's always sighing in front of the dressing table!"
Xu Tianwei said, "At first we were really worried because things happened so suddenly, but fortunately, Junior Brother Yun is a lucky person."
Yu Dongsheng: "Yes, it's good that Junior Brother Yun is back safe and sound."
Yun Ci said, "I was also confused when I was pulled into the secret realm."
As they entered the private room, they were accompanied by voices.
The upstairs was filled with the joy of reunion, and the downstairs was just as lively.
......
In the box.
Xu Tianwei and Yu Dongsheng were gnawing on the crystal pork knuckle. The skin of the knuckle, soft and tender with plenty of collagen, was crystal clear and melted in their mouths.
Xu Tianwei, Yu Dongsheng, and three other inner disciples were practically crying from the deliciousness!
Su Wanqing also ate one bite after another, putting food into her mouth while talking.
Yun Ci and Ye Qingqing were munching on a large plate of spicy stir-fried chicken feet in front of them. Yun Ci had also added rice cakes and fish cakes to the plate.
Ye Qingqing's lips were red and swollen from the spiciness, and she hissed as she asked, "Is Chu Ziming not at the sect today?"
Yun Ci, who was also gnawing on a chicken foot next to him, nodded and mumbled, "Yeah, he had something to do today and went out."
Cough cough, it's too spicy.
Yun Ci picked up the juice.
Ye Qingqing also took a sip of juice. "Yun Ci, are you still living with Chu Ziming?"
Yun Ci was taken aback. "We haven't been in the same room lately. What's wrong?"
Previously, Senior Sister Qingqing had never asked about Chu Ziming, but now that she had specifically mentioned him, Yun Ci was somewhat puzzled.
Ye Qingqing immediately let out a breath.
It's good that we don't live together.
What Chu Ziming has done over the past four years has made her and Wanqing increasingly suspicious... Chu Ziming has gone mad!
"Yun Ci, Chu Ziming treats you more specially than others. Have you ever thought... that Chu Ziming likes you?" Ye Qingqing asked tentatively.
"Ugh, cough cough cough... cough cough cough cough cough cough..." Yun Ci choked.
No, how did Senior Sister Qingqing know?
Looking at the others, they all seemed to have known all along. Yun Ci covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed, picking up her juice in shock, wondering if everyone already knew.
"Are you alright, Yun Ci?" Ye Qingqing quickly patted his back.
Yun Ci shook her head and put down her cup. "You... how did you know? No, I can't say that. Why do you think that?"
He and Chu Ziming are best friends, best brothers, and they haven't done anything that would give people pause for thought.
No, is there?
Ye Qingqing wanted to talk about various aspects.
At this moment, Xu Tianwei spoke up, "In the past four years, Junior Brother Chu has been very active in the sect, often going to Mount Jiuxiao. The journey is long and he would be gone for several months at a time. Later, Elder Chengxuan asked Junior Brother Chu to focus on cultivation. Senior Brother Chu used his amazing talent and endurance to complete Elder Chengxuan's task. Every time he completed the task, he would disappear from the sect the next day. Everyone knew that Chu Ziming had gone to Mount Jiuxiao again."
Yu Dongsheng looked at Xu Tianwei in surprise, somewhat puzzled as to why Brother Tianwei would specifically tell Yun Ci about this.
Then, remembering the special relationship between Junior Brother Yun and Junior Brother Chu, he understood a little.
One of the inner disciples of the Weapon Refining Peak who went with Xu Tianwei to exorcise the demon said, "Every time Senior Brother Chu comes back, he goes to live in the back mountain and rarely returns to the Weapon Refining Peak."
and also.
The sect also knew that Elder Chengxuan once went to the house on the back mountain in the middle of the night and brought the "mad" Chu Ziming back to the Weapon Refining Peak.
But no one dared to speak out or discuss it; even if they knew, they pretended not to know.
Once, a disciple of a senior master said that Yun Ci might not be coming back. Chu Ziming happened to overhear this and rushed over to beat the man up. It is said that the man did not leave his cave for several months.
As Yun Ci listened, he began to drift into a daze.
He remembered that Chen Ce had told him about seeing Chu Ziming in Maple Leaf City.
He seemed to see the figure standing under the eaves when he first returned, and he also seemed to see the figure walking through spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Seasons change, but the journey remains the same.
"So, we all feel that Chu Ziming treats you...specially compared to others."
Seeing Yun Ci's stunned expression, Ye Qingqing quickly added, "But we were just guessing, Yun Ci, don't worry, we haven't told anyone."
Yun Ci murmured that it was nothing.
......
night.
Chu Ziming didn't arrive until the staff finished eating and cleared the tables.
Yun Ci closed the door of the restaurant, returned to Qingyun Peak, greeted his master, went back to his room to get a change of clothes, and went to Lingquan Peak.
When Chu Ziming returned, he noticed that the room in the attic was still dark.
Can't help but feel a little confused.
Has Yun Ci not returned yet?
Without hesitation, Chu Ziming immediately turned around and prepared to go to Lingxiu Mountain.
The evening breeze blew.
Chu Ziming turned around with a smile and saw Yun Ci, whose hair was casually tied up with a ribbon. "Yun Ci, you're going to take a shower?"
Yun Ci remained silent.
Chu Ziming scratched his head and walked over. "What's wrong, Yun Ci? Yun Ci, you haven't spoken to me for two days."
Chu Ziming looked dejected, like a large dog that had fallen into the water.
Yun Ci remained silent, looking calmly at Chu Ziming.
Chu Ziming started to get anxious. He was willing to be Yun Ci's dog, even if Yun Ci hit him or scolded him, or even if Yun Ci called him a dog like yesterday. He was willing to be Yun Ci's dog, but Yun Ci had to ignore him!
Chu Ziming spoke anxiously, "Yun Ci, you..."
As the evening breeze blew by, Chu Ziming's Adam's apple bobbed as he looked at the person holding him.
Yun Ci murmured, "Silly girl, just wait for me to come back. Why go through all that trouble?"
If he can't get out of the secret realm, does this guy have to keep going to Mount Jiuxiao?
If he hadn't returned on time that day, would this guy have set off for Jiuxiao Mountain again?
Chu Ziming gently patted Yun Ci's back, a tender smile on his face.
"Hehe, I'm fine, Yun Ci, don't worry." I was just missing you then, really missing you.
"But are you feeling sorry for me?"
Under the night sky, Chu Ziming was beaming with pride, his smug expression witnessed by countless stars.
Yun Ci felt sorry for him; Yun Ci had him in her heart!
The stars blinked hard, as if glaring at this smug fellow.
Yun Ci fell silent, suddenly realizing the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, and awkwardly began to let go of her hand.
At this time.
Chu Ziming leaned close to Yun Ci's ear, his hot breath washing over her.
"Yun Ci, please only feel sorry for me, okay?"
