Chapter 2666: Turning Tables
“I know it isn’t hard for you to fall into a deep sleep. I feared things would get harder for you if I woke you up, so I chose not to disturb you,” Zu An explained.
“What’s the point of sleeping for a long time if you aren’t around? I’d rather wake up and spend each day with you slowly.” Chu Chuyan glared at him grudgingly. She took his decision not to wake her to heart.
Yan Xuehen was surprised. She had never seen Chu Chuyan speaking in such a manner. The latter had always been cold-natured, and everyone in the White Jade Sect said Chuyan resembled her master the most. Who could have known she could utter such sweet words?
But then again, even her own Unshakable Daoist Heart had wavered, let alone Chu Chuyan’s.
Even so, it feels weird seeing this young couple murmuring such sweet nothings to each other, especially when the man is my man, too. She was shocked when that thought popped into her head. She hurriedly drove it out.
While embracing Chu Chuyan, Zu An noticed Yan Xuehen’s discomfort. He was also feeling uncomfortable, especially since he could tell Chu Chuyan was intentionally doing this as an act in front of her master.
Yan Xuehen will probably explode if she finds out that I helped Chu Chuyan fool her, but if I reveal it now, it’ll also cause an uproar...
He could only try his best to balance both sides. He broke the awkwardness with a light cough and asked, “Chuyan, how did you know I was here?”
Chu Chuyan chuckled. “I’d be as good as dead if I didn’t hear a thing when you were speaking so much. However, it takes some time for me to wake up. A certain fellow had already left when I last woke up, leaving me to deal with this Oblivion River alone.”
Sensing her grudge, Zu An felt apologetic. “I should have just woken you up if I'd known.”
“I was worried you’d leave right after seeing me again, so I set up a formation to wake myself up as soon as you arrived. It’s a relief that I did that, or else you might have left after seeing me once more.” Chu Chuyan eyed Yan Xuehen as she spoke, thinking to herself that Zu An had likely brought the latter here to tour the area.
Haaa, why would someone as incredible as my master fall for this pig?
