Chapter 148 It’s all a show~

Early the next morning…

When Ji Bochang went out, he glanced at the door and saw that it was locked. He thought about what happened yesterday and couldn't help but sigh.

With Ruan Yingying's help, his cultivation has advanced to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

He has been seeking immortality with several beauties for many years, and he is no longer the Ji Bochang with five lines of pseudo-spiritual roots.

With the current qualifications, it can be said that if you just spend some time and elixirs in retreat, the foundation building will be successful!

He originally thought about retreating to break through the foundation building, but after thinking about it and thinking about Baibao Pavilion and Ruan Yingying, he was not in a hurry to retreat at this time...

First of all, the business of Baibao Pavilion is now busy, and I have agreed to shopkeeper Hu to take care of Baibao Pavilion for a few months.

Now that Shopkeeper Hu hasn't come back yet, if he abandons the business of Baibao Pavilion and goes into retreat, wouldn't he be breaking his promise?

Secondly, the matter of Ruan Yingying has not been decided yet.

He knew that although there were some misunderstandings between him and Ruan Yingying, it was indeed him who took away her innocence. This was an indisputable fact.

He also knows that he is not a man of courage.

Whether it was possessiveness or male chauvinism, even if he had no feelings for the time being, he could not see Ruan Yingying committing herself to anyone else in the future.

Besides, feelings are inherently mutual and can be cultivated slowly.

Yesterday, I said that I would be responsible for others, but the matter has not yet been finalized. It would be really inappropriate to retreat without seeing anyone today...

Ji Bo often went to work as usual and went to the Baibao Pavilion for a tour. After confirming that everything was fine, he went to the alchemy room to start refining the Hongluan Jingxin Pill.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye...

He handed the refined Hongluan Jingxin Pill to his beloved wife, and repeatedly told her that her own safety was the top priority in everything she did. If she didn't mean it, don't force it...

When Gan Yujing saw that her official's heart was tied to her, she covered her lips and laughed. After some relief, she picked a few peaches and put them in a fruit basket and carried them out the door.

He went to the door, knocked on the door, and called softly: "My neighbor has taken the liberty to drop by. Can Fellow Taoist Ruan be at home?"

"..."

At this time, Ruan Yingying was sitting at the table in despair. Compared to a few days ago, her eyes seemed to have lost their luster.

Suddenly I was awakened by a knock on the door and fluctuations in the formation, and my baby face with a little baby fat instantly tensed up nervously...

Her breath froze, and the man's figure subconsciously appeared in her mind, and her little hands that were clenched until the joints turned white trembled.

Just when she was thinking about how to refuse to see that person, she suddenly heard a female voice coming from outside the door.

"Neighbor? Woman?"

Ruan Yingying murmured, as if she had thought of something. The string that had just been loosened tightened again, and her heart beat much faster.

'Could it be that person's Taoist companion who came to me to hold him accountable?'

She thought about those days when Uncle Ji often said that he had a family, a lovely wife at home, and that he had no face to face his lovely wife when he got home. She felt panicked, and she felt more and more that the other party was here to hold her accountable.

She bit her lower lip with a look of misery on her face...

Thinking that not only had I lost my innocence, but now I had to be questioned by Taoist priests, and the key was indeed my fault, I felt aggrieved and tears welled up in my eyes...

"I...Why am I so miserable!"

She sobbed in a tearful tone: "Mom, I...I will never...run out again."

outside the door…

Gan Yujing didn't know that her trip had scared people to tears. Seeing that there was no movement at the door, she knocked on the door again and called out: "Fellow Taoist Ruan, I have sent elixirs to you on behalf of my officials."

"..."

Not long after, Ruan Yingying opened the door with red and swollen eyes, looked straight at the woman outside the door, and asked with a choked voice: "You...are you Ji Bochang Taoist monk?"

"yes…"

Gan Yujing was slightly startled when he saw her posture. After recovering, he nodded and said, "I am Gan Yujing, and I have come here to deliver elixirs to fellow Taoists on behalf of my officials."

"Okay, stop pretending..."

Ruan Yingying wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said calmly: "I didn't mean to seduce your man. If you want to scold you, just scold you. I won't retaliate."

"..."

Gan Yujing blinked blankly, and when he saw her eyelids were red and swollen and she was mumbling, as if she could not fight back or scold her, he realized that she had gone astray.

She suppressed a smile and said: "Fellow Taoist Ruan has misunderstood. I am delivering elixirs to fellow Taoist officials on behalf of my family members. I also want to apologize to my family members for their wrongdoing."

"ah?"

Ruan Yingying was slightly startled when she heard this, even her little hand wiping the corners of her eyes paused, and she asked with a look of surprise on her face: "Aren't you here to hold me to account?"

"The officer told me what happened that day..."

Gan Yujing smiled nonchalantly and said, "The fault lies with the officials in my family. It's too late for me to apologize, so how can I talk about accountability?

"..."

Ruan Yingying blinked blankly.

Although I didn't know what she meant when she said the fault was with her own officials, I couldn't help but feel relieved when I saw that her tone and attitude were very sincere, and she had a very friendly aura about her.

"You...you're really not here to hold me to account?"

"It's really not..."

Gan Yujing smiled and shook her head, lifted the fruit basket in her hand, and said: "The official felt that he was too shameless to face fellow Taoist Ruan, so he asked me to deliver elixirs to fellow Taoist Ruan.

I heard from officials that fellow Taoists like peach trees, and thinking that the peaches from the peach trees at home were all ripe, I specially picked some and sent them to you, hoping that fellow Taoists would not dislike them."

"Ah, this..."

Ruan Yingying saw that her attitude was friendly and her posture was very low, and she even sent her spiritual peaches. This was quite different from the accountability she had imagined, and for a moment she felt at a loss.

She hurriedly took the fruit basket and saw that he was still standing in front of the door with a smile. She hurriedly turned to the side and said, "Um...fellow Taoist, why don't you go into the hospital to talk?"

"Then it's annoying..."

Gan Yujing followed her into the courtyard with a smile.

When I sat down at the guest table, I saw him hurriedly trying to make tea, but showing a bit of embarrassment. At that moment, I seemed to understand something.

"I don't like tea, Taoist friends, don't worry about it."

As she spoke, she took out the peaches from the fruit plate and took a few bites, then took out another one and handed it over. She said with a smile: "The peaches at home are fresh and sweet, why don't you Taoist Ruan try them too?"

"Ah, okay, okay..."

Ruan Yingying lives alone and does not have any tea for entertaining guests at home. She is relieved when she says she doesn't like tea.

Seeing the spiritual peach handed to him again, he took it and took a sip. His cheeks were bulging and he muttered: "Your big peach tree has not yet reached the maturity stage, but the fruit it bears is already so beautiful. What will it bear in the future?"

The quality of the spiritual fruit must be excellent."

"Then I'll borrow Ruan Daoyou's auspicious words..."

Seeing her posture, Gan Yujing became more and more convinced that she was not deeply involved in the world, and now she had some concerns in her heart.

She took out the bottle of Hongluan Jingxin Pill and put it on the table, and said sincerely: "Actually, when I came here this time, I not only wanted to deliver the pills to the officials, but also wanted to make amends for the officials and fellow Taoists."

After that, she stood up and went to the side to salute...

"What is this for?"

Ruan Yingying saw that she was about to bow to her and apologize, so she hurried over to support her, and said inexplicably: "What did Ji Bochang tell you? Why do you want to apologize to me on his behalf?"

"this……"

Gan Yujing pretended to be surprised and said: "The official said that he sent elixirs to fellow Taoist a few days ago. When he saw that fellow Taoist was alone at home, he had evil thoughts in his heart and did something wrong to his fellow Taoist. Is there anything wrong in that?"

"..."

Ruan Yingying heard that Uncle Ji often took matters into his own hands, and she couldn't help but feel good about him.

She also thought that if the person took the matter on herself, she would definitely be misunderstood by the Taoist companions, which made her feel unhappy.

She hesitated for a while and said with evasive eyes: "Actually, Ji Bochang is not to blame for that. It was my own cultivation that caused the problem."

"ah?"

Hearing this, Gan Yujing pretended to be confused and blinked her eyes, and asked: "Ruan Daoyou, you mean, it wasn't my officials who made the mistake first?"

"no…"

Ruan Yingying nodded with a red face, and explained very embarrassedly: "It's my fault, it's because I have a problem with my own practice. When I saw him coming alone, I cast a spell to force him."

"this……"

When Gan Yujing heard this, she looked a little guilty and murmured: "Then I wrongly blamed the official."

"..."

Ruan Yingying nodded calmly.

"That's my fault..."

Gan Yujing sighed and said with a wry smile: "The official said that when he saw that Taoist friend Ruan had problems with his practice, he had evil thoughts in his heart and took the opportunity to destroy Taoist friend Ruan's innocence. I heard about this and scolded him. I never thought that there would be something wrong with him. Such a secret."

"..."

Ruan Yingying was silent for a while after hearing this, and asked: "Then what is he doing now?"

"I must be pacing nervously in the courtyard..."

Gan Yujing sighed and said: "After that incident, the official was scolded by me and couldn't sleep for several days. Every time he thought about it, he would sigh.

I thought the official was feeling guilty and didn't know how to face his fellow Taoist, so I asked him to refine the elixir and I would make amends with him..."
