Forsaken Immortals Chapter 176 - Relations

Chapter 176 - Relations

Little Chu was woken up by a shriek, but while he was still somewhat dazed, he suddenly felt how a ceramic vase crashed into his head.

Had he not been a cultivator, then he would have likely been injured, but the crash caused his mind to sober up, and he slowly stretched his hand out to gently rub the place where the vase had hit.

Qin Huiling did not realize what she had done before the vase had left her hands, and as she observed it falling on Little Chu's head, she suddenly felt her heart quiver. She did not intend to harm him, but she was too shocked, and acted before she could think about her actions.

Seeing the dazed Little Chu, who was rubbing his head, Qin Huiling hurried off the bed and went to his side. She quickly kneeled beside him and removed his hand, only to touch his forehead herself, to ensure that there were no fractures or other injuries.

The sudden closeness made Little Chu stunned. He could smell her womanly scent, which lingered around his nose, and the gentle touch on his forehead was also causing ripples to appear in his heart.

He was not one who liked to be beaten, but seeing the worry that was clear in Qin Huiling's eyes; he felt that this sacrifice was worth it.

However, while he was delighted to know that this little lady was worried about him, he also felt somewhat uncomfortable to see her so concerned, so he quickly grasped her hand and said with a serious voice, "do not worry about me. I am fine."

Seeing his serious expression, Qin Huiling also calmed down somewhat, and it was not before now she realized what crazy actions she had made.

While it was true that Little Chu had been sleeping in the same room as her, he had been sleeping on the floor, rather far away from the bed.

He had done nothing to wrong her, and she had thrown a vase right at his head, causing a small patch of his skin to turn red.

Even though she had acted this way, the young man had not gotten mad at her, but had instead patiently rea.s.sured her that he was fine. She could not help but feel how her face was flus.h.i.+ng red in embarra.s.sment, and she quickly withdrew her hand before she stood up and fled into the washroom.

Here she found a clean set of clothes in her qiankun bag. She washed up quickly and then wore the new clothes before coming out. However, the blush on her face was not easy to get rid of.

Little Chu looked at her bashful appearance, and a gleam of tenderness flashed past his eyes.

While he was not as deeply in love with this woman as Li Moyun was with Bai Rouyun, he still had positive feelings towards her, and felt his heart turn soft.

Before, he had never thought that he too would fall for this thing called love, but now he understood that when one was planted, there was almost no escape. The more time he spent with this little lady, and the more he got to know her, and the more important she became in his heart.

She had already taken root within it when she had been living here with Bai Rouyun, but now that he saw her again, he truly began understanding her importance to him.

If this had happened previously, before Li Moyun had met Bai Rouyun, he would have crushed such emotions while they were still weak, but now things had changed, and he understood that love was not always a drawback.

The feelings that it brought were enough to cause happiness and peace of mind.

"Want to go out and eat?" Little Chu smiled gently at Qin Huiling after the two had gotten cleaned up and dressed. Qin Huiling was somewhat shy and did not understand why she could not be mad at the smiling young man in front of her.

"Okay," she nodded after thinking for a moment. She already knew Little Chu quite well. Initially, when they met each other, she had been scared of him. He was the most powerful cultivator she had ever encountered, and she could not help but look at him with admiration, but after spending time together, she also realized that he was human, just like anyone else.

He had emotions and a bright personality. She found that they could be friends, but the moment she had woken up and found him by her side, she had been so embarra.s.sed that she did not know what to do.

Now that things had settled down, she was not one who would dwell on past events, and she felt that she should spend time together with Little Chu.

She felt that they could be friends; even if they were not equals, she still had faith in their relations.h.i.+p.

Smiling sweetly, Qin Huiling looked at Little Chu, and the two of them left the mansion, heading for the bustling city.

On the busy streets, Qin Huiling and Little Chu picked a restaurant to eat their meal, but the moment they entered, they were extremely stunned upon noticing that Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun were also seated in the restaurant, eating their breakfast.

Little Chu was quite astonished, and suddenly felt somewhat unsure of how to act.

Li Moyun was his lord; Bai Rouyun was his recognized sister. Qin Huiling was his good friend. The relations.h.i.+p was truly messed up.

Seeing his confusion and uncertainty, Li Moyun could not help but smile. Little Chu had changed drastically from the stoic and taciturn person he used to be, to a warm and inviting individual.

He quickly understood the somewhat unique situation that Little Chu was in, and he could not help but smile and say, "Come and join us."
