"Do you understand? What happened?"
"She likes you."
"...?"
Zhu Pingniang blinked, even more confused.
LuâEr likes me...?
She knows that.
LuâEr doesnât just like her, she also likes Xu Changâan, and also likes Yun Qian.
Moreover, when she suddenly apologized and cried on her lap, what does that have to do with liking her?
She gave a peculiar glance at the serious Yun Qian, thinking to herself if Yun Qian really understood what was happening?
Probably not, otherwise why would she say something everyone knows.
This Ms. Yun seems naive like Ah Bai from back then, even the things she herself doesnât understand, how could she expect Yun Qian to comprehend them.
"..."
Next to her, Yun Qian watched Zhu Pingniang fall silent, without any intention to explain.
She could see clearly, Miss Lu was deeply moved, while Zhu Pingniang was a slow woman, not even offering a comforting word, as in novels, women like this often miss their chances.
Tilting her head.
Yun Qian thought that Xu Changâan was quite good, he always considers things well, looks ahead and behind, yet when it comes to her issues... heâd never hesitate, heâs decisive when needed...this pleases her greatly.
"Ahem." At this moment, Zhu Pingniang came back to her senses, with a strange expression, she said: "Ms. Yun, that girl wasnât really sad while crying, so actually sheâs just acting spoiled with me...right?"
Yun Qian thought for a moment, then nodded.
Zhu Pingniang sighed in relief and spat: "That darn girl, surprised me... already an adult, still clinging to my leg acting spoiled, does she think itâs twenty years ago..."
Then, Zhu Pingniangâs voice stilled for a moment.
Exposing the young girlâs age seemed inappropriate?
However...
Zhu Pingniang secretly glanced at Yun Qian.
Eh?
She could actually talk well with Ms. Yun.
So, all it takes is not discussing her own matters with Yun Qian?
Zhu Pingniang suddenly felt confident, watching Miss Lu in the lower area, she started disciplining the girls one by one, helplessly said: "Sheâs also... going down there with her tears still not dried, logically speaking... someone who bursts into tears should have no authority, yet those girls are just afraid of her... really strange... donât know whatâs wrong."
After speaking, Zhu Pingniang attempted to involve Yun Qian in this topic to ease the atmosphere and continued.
"Ms. Yun, what do you think the reason is."
"What," Yun Qian looked at her.
"I mean, she clearly descended without much ability, yet the girls didnât look down on her for crying, but still obediently listened." Zhu Pingniangâs tone carried some indignation: "Clearly theyâre not afraid of me, yet fear that crybaby Lu Ni."
"Because they like her," Yun Qian said.
Zhu Pingniang: "..."
No words left.
Whatâs called hitting the nail on the head.
This is what a married woman is like.
When talking about feelings, there is no hesitation, straightforward and precise.
Yun Qian is never embarrassed.
On the contrary, listening on the side, Zhu Pingniangâs face blushed, unsure of what to say, she had a vague feeling that if she continued chatting with Yun Qian, she would be hit hard sooner or later.
At this moment, Yun Qian said, watching those women from Flower Moon Building below.
The girls in the banquet hall were all quite good-looking.
Indeed, girls who are not good-looking canât do this line of work.
Yun Qian heard some girls discussing Xu Changâan in private, seemingly very looking forward to the banquets with him.
She curled her lips gently, looked at Zhu Pingniang once more, thought these insightful girls must have been taught by Zhu Pingniang.
Very good.
"...?"
Zhu Pingniang was inexplicably glanced at by Yun Qian, subconsciously swallowed, then said: "Ms. Yun... letâs... letâs continue."
With Yun Qian looking over, Zhu Pingniang slightly lowered her eyes: "The thing about checking your elixir field, Lu Ni has already given us some space...naturally we must focus on the main task."
"Sure." Yun Qian nodded, extending her hand again.
To Yun Qian, this was not a big deal, after all, helping her check cultivation meridians, Wen Li, Wen Liâs master, and Li Zhibai had all done it.
But for the "scheming" Zhu Pingniang, it was somewhat heart-stirring.
She looked around the banquet table, seeing that only she and Yun Qian were alone.
Then glanced at Miss Lu still strutting below.
Finally, her gaze stopped on Yun Qian.
Not to mention Yun, sheâs truly... beautiful, even though sheâs a woman, just a glance felt captivating.
The most important thing is, Zhu Pingniang feels Yun Qianâs personality resembles Li Zhibaiâs when she was young, making her see Li Zhibaiâs past through Yun Qian.
This was even more heart-stirring.
Zhu Pingniang watched Yun Qianâs fair wrist beneath her silk sleeves, her dark eyes trembled slightly, while a blush crept up her neck.
Earlier with LuâEr watching from the side, now alone, this two-people world without overseers made Zhu Pingniangâs thoughts a mess.
Yun Qian: "...?"
Just then, Zhu Pingniang noticed Yun Qian looking at her in confusion, she immediately coughed lightly, putting her hand back on Yun Qianâs wrist, somewhat guiltily explained:
"I...I shall thoroughly inspect sisterâs Spirit Road, hoping, hoping itâs not a problem with the divine soul... Um, sister, rest assured, even if thereâs really a problem with the divine soul, I have ways to heal you."
