830. Chapter 830 Uneasy(1/2)
Chapter 830 It’s hard to calm down
On the quiet corridor of Tianxiao Pavilion, Yan Yueque, who was also regarded as one of the popular contestants, was lingering for a long time in front of the gorgeous carved door.
What is more eye-catching than his perfect appearance is his cool temperament, which is as cold as snow in mountains and rivers. And the gentleness that flows in his eyes is like the warm sun falling in the sky, melting away the coldness of ice and snow.
At this time, his good-looking eyebrows frowned slightly. After hesitating for a long time, he finally raised his hand and gently pressed the door panel that symbolized nobility and status.
"Xuemeng, are you asleep? Can I come in?"
He asked a little cautiously, and then waited with bated breath, as if waiting for a crucial answer.
After a long while, a soft voice came from the other end of the door, as clear as a spring in an empty valley.
"Brother Yueque, it's getting late. If you have anything else, let's talk about it tomorrow."
The luster in Yan Yueque's eyes dimmed instantly, he smiled wryly at himself, and nodded with difficulty: "Then... you have a good rest, I will go back first."
However, before he could turn around and leave, the voice behind him stopped him again.
"Wait a minute, brother Yue Que, you came to me so late...is there something important?"
As if she had thought of something, Yan Xuemeng's voice suddenly became anxious, "Is there news about my sister? Has she also come to take the assessment?"
"Yan Xueying?" A trace of contempt flashed in Yan Yueque's eyes, and he did not hide his disgust, "She is the traitor of Tianxiao Pavilion! Why are you mentioning her?"
Yan Xuemeng's voice suddenly rose: "You are not allowed to say that about my sister!"
"Did I say something wrong?" Yan Yueque said plausibly, "She voluntarily abandoned the family. Our Tianxiao Pavilion has long been without such a figure! Even if she died outside, it was her own fault!"
As a member of Tianxiao Pavilion, he has a strong sense of family honor and has always regarded his birth as a supreme honor. If anyone takes advantage of this honor, even if it is the sister of his sweetheart, he will never tolerate it!
At this point, he is often upright and even a little silly, but no matter what, this is his principle!
"Yan Yueque, you are just a child of a branch family. Pay attention to your identity!" There was obvious anger in Yan Xuemeng's voice. The majesty of being the daughter of the clan was naturally revealed.
Yan Yueque was shocked. His identity as a separated family was his weakness when facing Yan Xuemeng. He did not expect that one day this weakness would be pinched by others, and the person who controlled his weak point was exactly
The noble and flawless goddess in his mind.
"Yes... I am a descendant of a branch family..." Yan Yueque smiled sadly, "I know there are some things I am not qualified to say... That's why I work so hard to pass the exam. I want to enter the Tiangong Gate,
To be appreciated by Lord Yuanzu... I want to be worthy of you!"
Yan Xuemeng was silent for a long time. Just when Yan Yueque thought that she would no longer reply, the voice in the room unexpectedly rang again.
"Why do you have to be appreciated by others?"
"A friend of mine told me that the purpose of our efforts is for ourselves, not to gain recognition from others! As long as you don't look down on yourself, no one has the right to look down on you! Whether it's a family division or a clan, it doesn't matter.
I have never treated you with prejudice. I also hope that you can respect yourself."
"Friend...?" Yan Yueque's eyes moved slightly, and a shadow quickly melted away in his heart.
That night, when he walked out of this corridor, he was surrounded by surging sadness. The lights on both sides were dim and intertwined, and his body was like a dark insulator, allowing the light to leak through the body and being invisible.
Devoured by sorrow.
Xue Meng said that she had no prejudice against her, but at the critical moment, she did not use her clan identity to suppress her. So, she still minded after all...
In his life, the most important person besides the Yuanzu and his family is Yan Xuemeng. She is the person he has been secretly in love with for many years, and she is also the dream lover of countless young talents in Tianxiao Pavilion.
He valued them, but he did not have a sufficient identity to approach them and protect them.
The purpose of your efforts is indeed for yourself, but if you are not recognized by others, your efforts will still be in vain.
If you are a stone and no professional says you are a jade, you will always be a stone.
Career, title, fame, all of these are not external gilding.
How can the realization of personal values be separated from the recognition of society?
…
On the other side, in Jiuyou Hall.
Chu Tianyao was reading a book in his room, when someone suddenly knocked on his door.
"Lord Nine, can I come in?" As soon as he opened the door, he saw the "charming" Jiang Caini.
At this time, she was dressed even hotter than during the day. She was only wearing a close-fitting bellyband and a black gauze cover. The gauze was soft and almost transparent, and the faint spring light could be vaguely seen.
A strong fragrance emanated from her body and hit her face. The smell was like strong liquor, alluring and intoxicating.
Chu Tianyao glanced at her, his eyes still calm, he just smiled and turned slightly: "Please."
There was a flash of joy in Jiang Caini's eyes, and she boldly stepped in, deliberately closing the door. Then, she walked through the hall under the leadership of Chu Tianyao, looking around with interest.
"This room is really comfortable. It seems that Lord Nine is a person who enjoys life very much." Jiang Caini praised in a slightly exaggerated tone. At the same time, in her heart, her evaluation of him also rose a few points again.
.Compared with those slovenly brothers of Xie Feng Sect, such a person looks like a real noble.
"Of course you have to be responsible for your own life." Chu Tianyao replied calmly. He motioned for her to sit down on the sofa opposite, lifted the teapot on the table, and poured her a cup of tea.
Jiang Caini happily took the tea cup and took a small sip pretending to be obedient. Then she looked at him with timid and shy eyes and a sweet voice.
"Nine Lords, can I discuss with you... some cultivation issues?"
He took out a secret book, leaned slightly and spread it out in front of him, "I can't quite understand this secret book, so I would like to ask the Nine Masters for guidance." After saying that, he paused deliberately and said, "I won't delay your rest.
Bar?"
Chu Tianyao casually scanned the scroll and replied, "It's okay."
Then, under Jiang Caini's questions one after another, Chu Tianyao patiently explained it to her. But Jiang Caini's attention had already flown away from the secret book, and her extremely aggressive eyes looked up and down his body.
"Oh, it's so hot..." After a long time, seeing that Chu Tianyao never made any further move, Jiang Caini took the initiative and took advantage of the opportunity of pulling the collar to lower the collar all the way, showing off her snow-white neck, her mouth opened slightly, haha
Qi Rulan said, "Jiu Zun, don't you feel hot?"
At this time, she gently raised her right foot, and the low hem of her skirt quickly slipped down with her movement, revealing a pair of slender white legs that swayed rhythmically under the soft light.
"A calm mind naturally cools down, you are too impetuous." Chu Tianyao seemed to turn a blind eye to the "scenery" in front of him, and just gave a faint reply.
Jiang Caini was secretly annoyed, barely suppressing her anger and planning her next plan.
After a while——
"Nine Masters, it's such a beautiful night, shouldn't we do something more meaningful?" This time, Jiang Caini had already hinted bluntly.
Chu Tianyao seemed to have thought about it seriously, nodded and said: "That's right. It's getting late, it's time to get ready to rest, so let's end today's discussion here."
As he said that, he stood up and made a "seeing off" gesture.
Jiang Caini's eyes widened. She didn't believe that the other party was so confused, but now... what should she do?
Seeing her stunned look, Chu Tianyao was silent for a long time and sat back on the sofa. But this time, he was no longer polite as before, but more condescending and arrogant.
"Let me put it bluntly, you are indeed beautiful and charming, but I have no interest in losers."
"Loser?" Jiang Caini felt insulted, "It's only the first day, how can I become a loser?"
Chu Tianyao said calmly: "You came to me tonight, and I know the reason why. Since you subconsciously think that if you can't pass the test with your own ability, you must cheat, then you have already set yourself up for failure.
In the position of the winner. I said, I will not choose a loser."
Jiang Caini sat stiffly in her position, feeling a burning sensation on her face. So... he knew from the beginning that he knew what he was thinking, but he deliberately did not expose it, just like watching a monkey show, watching his various performances...
Although her clothes were still intact, at this moment, she felt that she had been completely exposed by him. An unprecedented sense of shame also welled up from the bottom of her heart.
"Then, what the Nine Masters mean..." After a brief moment of embarrassment, Jiang Caini also made up her mind, and with a twitching smile, she once again revealed a smile that confuses all living beings, "If I pass the assessment, by that time, I can
"What do you want to do?" He raised a hand and covered the back of his hand that was leaning on the table, his voice was so soft that it made people tremble, "...is that what it's like?"
Chu Tianyao raised his head and responded with an unfailing smile. At the same time, An Ran withdrew his hand: "I'll wait and see."
Jiang Caini smiled at him and bowed, then walked all the way to the gate with arrogant and elegant steps.
When she opened the door panel, she turned her eyes again and looked at the elegant figure leaning on the sofa, quietly sipping tea, and a gleam of unwillingness to admit defeat flashed in her eyes.
He was still the first person who was indifferent to her beauty, but the more this happened, the more determined she was to hunt him.
"Nine Masters, let's wait and see!"
…
When she quickly returned to the room, she was surprised to see that the candle was still on.
"Senior sister, did the Nine Masters reject you?" Jin Siqi, who was in the room with her, was still neatly dressed. She sat up from the bedside and looked at her with a half-smile.
Jiang Caini was shocked: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Jin Siqi smiled sarcastically: "Otherwise, you should just stay there for the night. Why did you come back so early?"
So, is she waiting here on purpose to see her laugh? The humiliation of being rejected made Jiang Caini furious, and she said bitterly: "The Nine Lords belong to me, you'd better not have wishful thinking."
!”
Jin Siqi rolled out of bed without fear and said coldly: "I knew you would say that. So I waited for you to come back just to tell you that I never thought about stealing your boyfriend from you! Do you like Jiu Zunzhe?
It’s your own business, don’t impose your will on others.”
Jiang Caini sneered and raised her arms leisurely: "Really? Back then, weren't you and Gu Feipeng very much in love with each other?"
Hearing that name, the momentum that Jin Siqi had accumulated for a long time seemed to be evacuated in an instant. That person was the first person who loved her, but time passed and when she heard his name again, her feeling was not sweet, but
