At the dining table, two charming old virgins each harbored their own thoughts.
The ’daughters’ raised by them secretly competed against each other.
Meanwhile, the core of their conversation, Lu Jin’an, naively brought up topics.
Thus, in the tranquil evening where the sun set and the moon rose, dinner was not wasted.
After eating and drinking to their fill, Pei Wanyu hadn’t managed to extract much useful information, as Xiao Yinruo firmly claimed it was to interfere with her attempts to seduce her disciple.
Pei Wanyu had no solution, but she didn’t give up. With a quick turn of her eyes, she had another idea.
"Yinruo, how about we take a walk? It’s been so long since we’ve seen each other, and this brief time isn’t enough to catch up." Pei Wanyu leisurely stood up, her slender long dress outlining her sexy and curvaceous figure.
Xiao Yinruo intended to refuse, but her wrist was already pulled by her friend as they walked out of the Moon Reflection Pavilion.
"Nanzhi, Senior Sister, why don’t you take a walk too? I’ll do the washing..."
"I’ll wash." Mu Qingyue interrupted her junior brother’s voice, casually ’glancing’ at the dishes he used.
Lu Jin’an smiled: "There’s really no need, I always finish what I start."
"I’ll wash with my husband～" Zhu Nanzhi winked at him, Mu Qingyue snorted lightly: "Are you sure you’re not washing something else?"
Zhu Nanzhi hummed: "Just a trivial matter, it doesn’t waste time～"
As she spoke, her already bright azure eyes seemed even brighter, and she moved gracefully to Lu Jin’an’s side, whispering: "I’ll wash the dishes, and my husband will stand behind...
If I don’t wash well, my husband can discipline this disobedient wife, okay?"
She paused for a moment, her eyes becoming even more watery, twisting her little waist: "My husband can say ’Even this small task can’t be done properly, you’re supposed to be a Holy Daughter, how can you be so useless,’ and then... hehe～"
As she spoke, she chuckled slyly.
Lu Jin’an looked at the flirtatious Holy Daughter of Qingmiao Palace, for a moment really believing she had some sort of psychological m-tendency... but in the end, she just wanted to play roles.
Still the ’useless Holy Daughter wife needing proper education’ kind of role-play.
"What are you thinking every day?" Lu Jin’an helplessly poked her smooth forehead: "Where did you learn this from?"
"Gift!" Zhu Nanzhi puffed her chest, saying proudly: "I just naturally understood after meeting my husband～"
"Shameless." Mu Qingyue snorted coldly: "You’re practicing the Forget Love Path and still so coquettish, why not switch to the Yin-Yang Dao?"
"Can’t I practice both?" Zhu Nanzhi tilted her head at Mu Qingyue: "The spiritual Forget Love Path and the physical Yin-Yang Dao...invincible, right～"
She paused, then added: "Oh～ definitely not invincible in front of my husband～"
With that, the Cold Saintess lowered her eyes, looking shy as a young girl.
But when combined with her demeanor as Lu Jin’an’s ’wife,’ it created an inexplicable allure between the two.
Lu Jin’an suppressed his impulsive thoughts and simply said: "I’ll wash them myself, you two should take your walk, take your bath, and go to bed early!"
He thought, tonight Master was going to treat him to watermelon after all, and Master might end up tasting her own fruit too.
So he began to clear the dishes and headed to the kitchen: "Don’t follow me."
Seeing that her husband (junior brother) had made his decision, Zhu Nanzhi and Mu Qingyue did not stop him.
Zhu Nanzhi looked at Mu Qingyue, then took brisk steps towards Qingyi Palace.
’I’ll take a bath first, then warm the bed for my husband...hm hm.’
With her hands behind her back, she cheerfully skipped along.
Mu Qingyue ’watched’ her back, lowered her head to look at her own outfit of the day, thinking she couldn’t let today’s outfit go to waste just like that.
"It’s already summer, Junior Brother needs a ’cool bed’..."
She muttered to herself, patting her chest: "No, I still have to wait, but I can’t let Nanzhi succeed again..."
Mu Qingyue stepped directly towards Fuyao Inn of her junior brother, fully confident she wouldn’t be discovered by him or Zhu Nanzhi.
Lu Jin’an was carrying a tray of dishes and hadn’t entered the kitchen yet, when four girls led by Qiu Ye blocked his way.
"There’s no need for the Saint Heir to take my job～" Qiu Ye said crisply: "You just go rest～"
Lu Jin’an just opened his mouth to speak, when Xia Ming chattered: "The Deputy Sect Master is looking for you!"
Lu Jin’an instinctively turned around to look, and the dishes in his hands were quickly taken away by the four girls. He indeed saw his approaching Master.
The kitchen door closed, Lu Jin’an smiled helplessly, then turned around to face Pei Wanyu and asked: "Master, didn’t you go for a walk with Palace Master Xiao?"
"No rush～" Pei Wanyu thought of Xiao Yinruo who escaped to sleep with an excuse, and said while standing in front of her good disciple, reaching out to caress his cheek with a slight apology in her voice: "Jin’an, Master won’t be with you tonight."
Lu Jin’an was taken aback for a moment, then immediately said: "You want to catch up with Palace Master Xiao?"
"Yes." Pei Wanyu nodded, determined to find out tonight why Xiao Yinruo was trying to seduce her disciple!
"It’s alright." Lu Jin’an smiled: "Master, go ahead and do what you need, the disciple is very obedient."
Pei Wanyu glared at him affectionately, happy with her good disciple’s understanding, yet realizing there was still a long way to go for her good disciple to become a rebellious disciple...
With that thought, she suddenly lifted the strap of her thin long dress off her shoulder, then pulled Lu Jin’an’s head into her left embrace, gently stroking his head as she softly said: "Such a good disciple you are～"
Saying this, she looked down at her already experienced good disciple, her eyes softening, and she murmured softly: "But sometimes you can try being a bit naughty～"
Lu Jin’an listened, marked it in his heart, but took no action.
Obedient or not, rebellious or not... he actually had his own sense of it.
His Master’s refined dish is best savored slowly over time.
