191: Chapter 189: The Dwarf Wants to Be an Older Sister?
Fang Geyu had never been gazed at with such eyes before.
Her expression twisted awkwardly and then she raised her eyebrows pretentiously, feigning annoyance.
She put her hands on her hips and said, “You little pervert, why are you staring at us so intensely?”
Lin Yuan protested discontentedly, “Don’t talk nonsense, Si Chen is not a little pervert.”
“Family?”
Baili An didn’t care about being called a ‘little pervert’.
His voice was gentle, and he lowered his head to rest his chin between Afu Tu’s ears, his dark eyes flickering like unstable starlight.
“If I had family, they would definitely be the person I need to protect, the best person in the world.”
Baili An didn’t notice that the rabbit in his arms twitched its ears, and the shy blush under its fur faded away, turning pale.
“So…” Baili An raised his head and looked at the bemused Fang Geyu, smiling slightly, “If you call me ‘brother,’ I will give you all those things that I can’t let others have.”
His demeanor suggested that if you recognized him as a brother, he would scour the world for wonderful things to give you.
Under the candlelight, the red mole on Fang Geyu’s white jade-like earlobe seemed about to drip.
Yet she snorted and, with habitual sarcasm, lifted her lips and mocked, “Things you can’t let others have?
What are those?
If I wanted the Mountain Seal of Kongcang Mountain, would you also give it to me?”
Clearly, he would rather give it to Lin Guiyuan than to her before.
Baili An’s eyes gleamed, “Call me brother, and I’ll give it.”
It surely was a profitable deal.
Fang Geyu thought this way.
If she had known he was so easily cajoled, that acting cute and coquettish could get her the Mountain Seal, she wouldn’t have bothered to bring him here looking for ‘Immortal Tears’.
Just a couple of calls as ‘brother’—that she could do as many times as needed.
Although Fang Geyu was reckless, lawless, and accustomed to frivolity, when it came to acting coquettish…
This was a skill every girl knew.
Piece of cake.
The word ‘brother’ nearly slipped out.
But then…
“Humph, how shameless!”
She tossed her head disdainfully, “Don’t think you can take advantage of me.
It’s not even certain who’s the elder between us.”
Lin Yuan’s eyes rolled playfully and he chuckled, “I remember Fang Geyu, you’re only sixteen, right?
Si Chen is definitely older than you; he’s lived for hundreds of years.”
Fang Geyu, always quick with a retort, instinctively snapped back, “Has he lived hundreds of years?
With that tiny physique, even you, Lin Yuan, are almost taller than him, his facial features still not fully grown.
Does he even look fifteen or sixteen?
So, does lying in a coffin for a few hundred years count as age?”
Fang Geyu’s venomous mouth successfully inflicted a sharp pain in Lin Yuan’s heart.
Seeing Lin Yuan’s face turn pale.
Fang Geyu was startled and realized her words might have been too harsh.
And Baili An, too, slowly furrowed his brows, lost in thought.
Ultimately, speaking of life and death was a taboo.
Having never experienced death.
Not knowing its pain, its cold, its loneliness.
A hint of remorse rose in Fang Geyu’s heart as she awkwardly thought about how to apologize…
“So Fang Geyu, you don’t want to be a sister, but prefer to be an elder sister?”
Baili An appeared troubled and his expression grew discouraged.
“One Lin Yuan sister, one Wen sister, so I already have two sisters, and now you also want to be an elder sister…”
He looked at her unhappily, “I’m a bit unwilling, you little dwarf.”
Fang Geyu: “???”
Little… dwarf?
Who’s the little dwarf?
Me, Miss Fang Geyu?
The prickle of pain and soreness in Lin Yuan’s heart was erased by that ‘little dwarf’ remark.
She leaned on the table, laughing heartily, “Exactly right, Fang Geyu, you’re just a little dwarf, dreaming of being an elder sister.
Even if Si Chen isn’t taller than me, he’s still taller than you.”
Fang Geyu felt an itching irritation, “What are you proud of?
It’s not like I won’t grow taller.”
Baili An looked at her with great concern, “With you being so picky with food, it’s hard to grow taller.”
“I’ll hit you, you know!”
Baili An smiled and didn’t reply, instead, he picked up the Glazed Umbrella leaning beside him and opened it to summon the Heroic Spirit White Tiger.
Fang Geyu clicked her tongue, “Why are you letting this ghost creature out so late at night?”
“If it’s not your two brothers’ person, then all is well,” Baili An crouched down and patted the stomach of the Heroic Spirit White Tiger.
The Heroic Spirit White Tiger opened its mouth and spat out a heavy Xuantie Token, clanging loudly as it hit the ground.
Baili An picked it up, “Fang Geyu, do you know what this is?”
Fang Geyu looked down and her brow furrowed slightly, saying, “My father’s Xuanfeng Token.”
“Xuanfeng Token?”
“That’s the covert assassination unit raised secretly by my father.
Not even the seven elders in the city know that he has such an elite force under his command.”
She shared this secret, unknown even to the seven elders, simply with Lin Yuan and Baili An.
Fang Geyu laughed self-deprecatingly, “Surely my father doesn’t intend to kill me?”
Baili An pondered for a moment and then said, “A clear tactic to sow discord.”
Fang Geyu’s expression was indifferent, her voice tinged with desolation, “If not for this bond of blood being unstable, how could external forces come to provoke?”
“A tactic to sow discord?” She laughed mockingly, “How ironic.”
It was quite ironic to think that people believed that in Tiangge City, where the most esteemed and loving father and daughter resided, discord could be sown between them in such a silent mockery.
Baili An didn’t respond to her words, instead turning to look at the night sky.
“It’s getting late, let’s rest early?”
Lin Yuan looked at Baili An, knowing that even into the night, he couldn’t find peace in sleep.
Throughout the long night, as they all slept,
How would he, alone, endure this lonely night?
Baili An walked outside, “I’m going to let Lin Guiyuan out for some air.”
…
…
For this trip to Xianling City, only the little deer and Jin Sheng were left in the Mountain Realm.
The little deer was in a crucial period of stabilizing its demon core; it wasn’t good to take it around carelessly.
Within the Mountain Realm, the Spiritual Power was stable, quite suited for it to focus on cultivation.
Lin Guiyuan, now in the form of a mountain ghost, wrapped in Ghost Qi and unafraid of sunlight, still shouldn’t be too conspicuous.
Fang Geyu had a spiritual bag specifically for storing Spiritual Objects.
Her own Unicorn was usually kept inside it, perfectly concealing its aura and Spiritual Power.
Knowing Lin Guiyuan had inconveniences, she had also given Baili An a spiritual bag.
They left the inn and stepped down the stairs to the courtyard.
The night grew darker, the clear moon now absent.
In the trees, the flickering light marks reflected the falling snow covering the steps, and two pots of wine were quietly placed atop the snow-covered stone table.
Chai Ye had clearly been waiting for a long time.
He was alone.
Baili An said, “I don’t drink.”
Chai Ye paused, then smiled and uncorked a pot, taking a hearty swig, “No matter, I can drink alone.”
