Ye Qingxuan certainly didn't want to be spoken of like that by her Junior Brother.
She never intended to be like that with her Junior Brother; it was only because the bad guy used his status as her younger brother that she couldn't bear to refuse him.
Gently pushing away Yun Ming's hand that had snuck into her clothes, she pretended nothing had happened and then opened the door to the other room.
The little blue-haired one was very alert; hearing the sound, he hid himself aggrievedly, his little bottom sticking out, like a baby ostrich burying its head.
"Bad Brother, Ling'er doesn't want to talk to you."
"Even if you hug Ling'er to sleep tonight, and tell Ling'er you're sorry, and promise to take Ling'er out next time, and then kiss Ling'er, Ling'er still won't forgive you."
"..."
On the bed, Ling'er covered herself with the blanket, listing all her conditions in one breath, making one chuckle.
This little one, quite cute, huh?
Yun Ming asked with a smile.
"Then if I hug Ling'er to sleep tomorrow too, and kiss Ling'er tomorrow too, and take Ling'er out to play more often after that, can Ling'er forgive me?"
"Really?"
The little one peeked out, tears still on her pretty face; it was clear she was truly sad just now, as she wasn't usually so willful.
But today, today, she didn't know why.
She just couldn't help it.
She always wanted to act spoiled and throw tantrums with her Brother.
Wait, why was Senior Sister here too? Brother was utterly bad, making Ling'er a laughingstock again.
"Ugh, Brother is a bad egg, a bad egg, a bad egg!!!"
"..."
Ye Qingxuan couldn't help but laugh out loud; she had heard everything just now. Ling'er wouldn't compete with Senior Sister Qing Xuan for Brother.
Ling'er was a clever little ghost... she knew quite a lot. Her child was indeed too good at reading expressions. She even seriously suspected that Ling'er knew before she did... about all those things Yun Ming felt for her... "Alright, Senior Sister has already taught him a lesson for you."
"How about Ling'er forgives Brother?"
She quietly lifted the small blanket, and the little girl took advantage of the situation, slipping into Senior Sister's embrace, her cute nose wiggling.
It was the familiar scent, no doubt!
Ling'er's eyes turned red again, full of jealousy.
"Senior Sister was secretly hugging Brother behind my back."
She was so sad, yet they were flirting next door just now; no one loved Ling'er anymore.
She ran out.
Barefoot, she came before Yun Ming, opening her arms.
"Ling'er wants a hug too~"
"Brother Yun Ming isn't allowed to hug Senior Sister anymore tonight, only Ling'er. Hmm, and you have to coax Ling'er to sleep. This is Ling'er's punishment!"
Yun Ming felt a headache coming on. Had the boomerang come back so quickly? He had planned to find Martial Uncle tonight, but it seemed impossible now.
"Ling'er has become a little vinegar concentrate (jealous spirit)."
"Brother is scolding me again."
Snuggle, snuggle, snuggle~
Ling'er loved being in Yun Ming's arms, and only after snuggling for a while did she feel satisfied. After that, she smiled at Senior Sister, sticking out her tongue apologetically.
"Senior Sister can hug me too, Ling'er said something wrong just now."
"Senior Sister won't hug you~"
Ye Qingxuan glared at the fickle little one, annoyed. She got her hug, and now she immediately betrayed her and started scheming for Brother?
Dream on.
She seriously suspected that Ling'er would press Junior Brother's hand onto her, and then pretend to be asleep.
"Go to bed early, I'm staying next door tonight."
She said, leaving without lingering, though she couldn't help but sigh in relief after stepping out. She had to do laundry again tonight, couldn't let Junior Brother find out... that she had washed clothes.
Only then did she approach the bed Junior Brother had slept in, unable to resist gently picking up a corner and sniffing it. The familiar scent brought a sense of peace.
Was she going to sleep here tonight, just like being held by Junior Brother? She felt a little... no, she had just changed clothes!
Ye Qingxuan, oh Ye Qingxuan.
What are you thinking about all day!?
Coincidentally, though the other person was holding Ling'er, he was doing the same thing. Top-tier inhalation, this was truly top-tier!
Where was that scent from, it was so hard to guess!
It's not perverted to feel a bit antsy for your beloved, right? This is called foreplay, it's all because of love!
"Brother Yun Ming, you're so perverted..."
Ling'er was a bit disgusted, did he really like Senior Sister that much?
Hmph, he was clearly holding Ling'er, big bad guy~
It was very warm under the covers, but very comfortable in winter... Held in his arms, she wiggled her body, secretly crawling down and then snuggling into Yun Ming's clothes, pressing against his waist.
What bad intentions could Ling'er have?
She just wanted to sleep with Brother, plan complete!
Snuggle, snuggle, snuggle... But suddenly, her body stiffened. She encountered an unprecedented emergency, and Brother Yun Ming didn't seem to notice anything unusual.
Perhaps it was because he completely treated her as a child.
But... she wriggled out, her small face crimson.
In the darkness, she slapped Yun Ming, not saying a word, as if she had suffered a great grievance.
After a long while, with Yun Ming looking utterly bewildered.
The girl explained, flustered, with a crying voice.
"Brother, sleep well, don't think about messy things! Otherwise, Ling'er won't talk to you..."
This was the first time Ling'er truly realized.
She was a girl, and Brother Yun Ming was a boy; they were completely different. So, when a sister grew up, she couldn't cling to her brother to sleep anymore.
So that's how it was... Yun Ming didn't speak. So that's why!
A smart and precocious child like Ling'er should sleep in her own bed early. He was afraid this day would come.
After all, the little one was like a hugging pillow.
Who would subconsciously see this cute little loli as the opposite sex? In short, it was over... His glorious image as a brother had fallen.
That night, Ling'er slept half a meter away from Yun Ming, and the old brother's heart was bitter... But after falling asleep, the little girl eagerly snuggled up again.
Cheek against cheek, very dependent.
"Brother is my favorite..."
From her sleep-talking, it wasn't hard to guess what the little girl was dreaming about; her smile was very sweet. Good night, silly girl.
See you tomorrow~
...Yun Ming didn't cultivate and slept through the night.
When he woke up in the morning.
Ling'er had slipped away early. When they met, she seemed normal, but her intimate gestures were a bit constrained.
Something was off!
Ye Qingxuan grabbed Yun Ming's ear and demanded a clear explanation.
Yun Ming was embarrassed to say, but he had no choice. He confessed the truth and honestly took a beating. In the end, Ling'er, feeling distressed, accompanied him to face the wall in contemplation.
She softly apologized.
The young man was very magnanimous, waving his hand and saying it was all minor.
The beating was worth it.
At least the little girl would now understand why she couldn't keep clinging to him. Senior Sister would beat people, after all, who could bear to blame the little girl?
After his contemplation, Yun Ming rushed angrily towards Sui Bian Temple.
Why was he discovered by Ling'er?
Wasn't it because Martial Uncle had ambushed him, causing him to come here?
Why were Senior Sister and Ling'er in a strange mood? It must also be Martial Uncle causing trouble.
Ultimately, it was all Martial Uncle's fault!
Yun Ming embarked on a journey to find the culprit.
"Little Martial Uncle, come out here!"
"Senior Brother, Little Martial Uncle said she won't see you for now, even if you call her... Mama, she won't see you. Please don't make things difficult for us."
At the entrance of Sui Bian Temple, beside the two stone lions.
The gate-keeping disciple stepped forward helplessly, blocking this Second Senior Brother, who looked like he wanted to kill someone, and was also the Young Sect Leader.
Bai Xian had specifically instructed them to stop him no matter what.
No one on Yun Kui Mountain wanted to provoke or disobey the perpetually cheerful Little Martial Uncle. Hadn't Second Senior Brother been suppressed with a single hand?
Although rumors said that the relationship between Second Senior Brother and Martial Uncle... some said it was a PY transaction.
Some said it was an older woman-younger man romance.
The Ye-Yun faction strongly opposed this, as reliable intelligence analysis indicated that Martial Uncle was at least 50 years old, so how could it be an older sister-younger brother relationship?
Relevant personnel were subsequently dealt with by Martial Uncle, using the Great Amnesia Spell.
In short, better to provoke Second Senior Brother than Little Martial Uncle.
"You really won't let me in?"
"Really won't! Or, Senior Brother, how about you beat me down?"
