Chapter 293: When they met, Li Daoyuan was terrified.
Next morning in the Li Residence dining hall, dishes on the table were sumptuous and fragrant. Few of them were eating.
"Husband, eat more." Xiao Qingge picked up a piece of meat and placed it in Li Ran's bowl. "This is the silver deer meat I personally cooked this morning. It's very nourishing."
Li Ran nodded. "Alright, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard." Xiao Qingge's eyes curved into a smile as she served him dishes from time to time.
Compared to their sweetness, the other two were embarrassed and dumbfounded.
Chu Lingchuan glared hatefully at Li Ran as she gritted her teeth.
She couldn't wait to flip the table.
"You still have the face to say that you are full of integrity? I think you’re shameless to the extreme!"
She regretted living next door.
She recalled the scene she had sensed last night and wished she could clean her eyes.
But this was, after all, Li Residence, so that she couldn't say anything.
In the end, she could only close her senses and stare blankly until dawn.
"Damned guy, he must be using this method to retaliate against me!" Chu Lingchuan broke into a mouthful, her eyes filled with embarrassment.
Meanwhile, Li Daoyuan was a little dazed.
Where did this girl come from?
Why was there an extra person in the manor the moment he woke up?
"Li Ran, is this girl your friend?" he asked doubtfully. "Aren't you going to introduce me?"
Li Ran raised his head and mumbled, "Oh, she's Se…"
Before he could finish his sentence, Chu Lingchuan interrupted, "My surname is Wan, and I am Sheng Zi Li's' friend'."
She bit the word "friend" very hard as if it was squeezed out of her teeth.
"Ah?" Li Ran looked at her curiously.
Chu Lingchuan said, "Don't tell anyone about my identity to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Although she didn't care about rumors and gossip, after all, her identity was there. If word of it got out, it would probably attract a lot of attention.
One more thing was better than one less thing.
Li Ran nodded. "Alright."
Li Daoyuan rubbed his chin and said, "So it's Miss Wan… It seems like Central City doesn't have a family with the surname Wan, right?"
Chu Lingchuan said casually, "I'm not from Central City. I'm from East Ocean."
"East Ocean?"Li Daoyuan looked at Li Ran and said in a low voice, "Kid, could it be that she's the Saintess of another sect?"
Li Ran shook his head. "You're overthinking it. She's not a sect disciple."
"That's good." Li Daoyuan heaved a sigh of relief.
As long as she wasn't a sect disciple, everything was fine.
Previous visits of the Holy Maidens almost scared him out of his wits.
This time, a normal person finally appeared.
Li Daoyuan said warmly, "Miss Wan, eat more. Don't be polite. Look at how thin you are."
Chu Lingchuan forced a smile and said, "It doesn't matter. I just need to drink."
"How can you drink so early in the morning? That will hurt your stomach."
"I'm used to it."
At that moment, Li Daoyuan noticed something and asked curiously, "Why isn't Miss Wan wearing shoes?"
Chu Lingchuan said, "This… Personal habits."
Li Daoyuan shook his head and said, "This isn't good for your body. When cold air enters your body, it's easy to dilute. Someone, bring Miss Wan a new pair of shoes!"
Chu Lingchuan's mouth twitched. "I thank you."
Li Daoyuan smiled and said, "You're welcome…"
Just then, a servant's voice came from outside the door. "Reporting to Master, Young Master, Miss Yue is here."
"Miss Yue?" Their movements froze at the same time.
Li Ran and Xiao Qingge looked at each other, panic flashing in their eyes.
It must be Yue Jianli.
But Chu Lingchuan was still here. What if she found out about their relationship. Li Ran couldn't help but shiver.
Following the sound of footsteps, a young girl in green walked into the dining hall and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to disturb you Li…"
Ahem!
Li Ran coughed hard and blinked frantically.
Yue Jianli was a little confused, and his heart almost jumped out when he looked out!
"Teacher, Master!"
Why did Master appear in the Li family?
Chu Lingchuan was also a bit surprised, "Jianli? Why are you here?"
Air froze instantly.
"Disciple…" Yue Jianli looked flustered and said, "I heard Master is in the Li Residence and wanted to come over. I didn't expect you to really be here."
"Is that so?"
Chu Lingchuan revealed a puzzled expression.
She had only come to the Li Residence yesterday, and only a few people knew. Where did she hear about this?
"You…" Yue Jianli interrupted her and asked, "Master, why did you come to the Li residence? After all, there's a difference between the Righteous and Devil. If this matter were to spread, it might not have a good effect, right?"
As expected, Chu Lingchuan's attention was diverted, and she awkwardly said, "I came here for business. What effect can it have? Cough, cough, don't just stand there. Come and sit together with us."
"Okay…" Yue Jianli heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Master's mind wasn't too bright. Otherwise, she would have really exposed herself this time.
Five of them sat together, feeling a little awkward.
Li Daoyuan was completely dumbfounded.
He looked at Yue Jianli and then at Chu Lingchuan, unable to turn his head.
"Chief Yue, why did you call Miss Wan Master?"
Yue Jianli was stunned. "Miss Wan? This is my Master, the Sect Master of Myriad Sword Pavilion."
"What? You… You said she is the Sect Master of Myriad Swords Pavilion!"
Li Daoyuan's eyes were wide open, and his face was filled with disbelief.
Chu Lingchuan could not hide it anymore and helplessly said, "My surname is indeed not Wan. I am Chu Lingchuan from the Myriad Sword Pavilion."
Li Daoyuan's throat was dry.
He stiffly turned his head and said, "Kid, didn't you say she wasn't a sect disciple?"
Li Ran nodded. "She's indeed not a disciple."
"I f*cking…" Li Daoyuan's face was ashen, and his legs were a little weak.
Girl eating with him was actually a top-tier sect leader, a superpower who could suppress the vast land.
And he actually taught the other party how to maintain her health, and he even said that it was easy for the other party to lose their health!
He felt like his heart was about to stop.
Chu Lingchuan said, "Clan Leader Li, there are some matters between Li Ran and me that have not been resolved yet. I need to stay in the Li Residence for a few days. Please forgive me if I am disturbing you."
"It's related to Li Ran?" Li Daoyuan shuddered.
Could it be that his relationship with Yue Jianli had been exposed, and his master had come to find him?
His back was drenched in a cold sweat.
"This day has finally arrived…"
