Yue Qingqing had no idea that although her third senior brother didn’t speak, his thoughts were racing.
He went from thinking "love is indeed an ethereal thing" to "love can decide life and death."
He also reminisced about the many girls he had heard of in both this life and his past life, who were willing to die for love, and those who would become possessed or self-destructive because of it.
Then, he thought about how young Qingqing was now, and how she might still suffer the pains of love in the future.
At this thought, Yan Sinian once again became fiercely protective, fearful that someone would bully his little junior sister.
Then, he considered that when compared, that Jiang lad didn’t seem too bad after all.
At least, if he left Qingqing, he would surely be cursed with misfortune—there would be no need for Yan Sinian to act personally as Jiang Jingze would inevitably be the architect of his own undoing.
But as much as he thought about it, now was not the time.
Yan Sinian would never allow his little junior sister to be deceived by that bastard boy before her mind was mature.
At the very least, she needed to meet more outstanding youths before making her choice.
However, that was a matter for the future; for now, Qingqing needed to study hard and grow up happy and healthy.
All these scattered thoughts came together to form that one sentence: "No dating allowed."
Yue Qingqing was utterly confused, unable to follow her senior brother Yan’s train of thought, and could only look at him blankly.
Yan Sinian stroked Yue Qingqing’s head with an expressionless face.
Qingqing, innocent and oblivious, felt rueful, thinking about how her senior brother was becoming weirder by the day.
Could this be what grandma referred to as puberty?
This senior brother is so difficult to manage.
Cui Wu called, heaping high praise on Yan Sinian’s actions, believing him to be a good senior who held the nation in his heart and had boundless love.
He also commended Yan Sinian’s significant contributions and superb acting during the operation.
A barrage of flattery, as if it cost him nothing, suggested he wouldn’t hesitate to present a banner of honor for any disagreement.
Yan Sinian, however, was completely immune to the sugar-coated bullets and responded coldly, "If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up. Don’t bother me in the future."
Cui Wu listened to the dial tone, his face a picture of embarrassment.
Cui You consoled him, "If there’s a one and a two, then there will be a three and a four. I think senior Yan is just a bit icy on the outside but actually quite warm-hearted."
Cui Wu agreed, "Exactly. He says he won’t help, but he’s on the phone within two minutes. I think senior Yan is just..."
He thought hard for a while, finally drawing inspiration from a novel his daughter recently read.
"Although he’s a high-level cultivator, he’s still quite young at heart and definitely a warm and compassionate fellow."
If Yan Sinian knew this, he would certainly face them with his poker face.
Don’t just drink, why can’t you order some dishes?
Yan Sinian wouldn’t meddle or bother with the remaining tasks.
He left them entirely to the police and the Supernatural Management Bureau to handle.
You Fangxin would be taken back to the Supernatural Management Bureau, where she would be tried according to the bureau’s laws.
Chi Wencheng gradually recovered from his grief and began to help Zhuancheng’s police with the wrap-up work.
They used special methods to extract a list from You Fangxin’s confession.
They would go from house to house to destroy the Wood Carvings.
Since You Fangxin’s cultivation base had been destroyed, these Wood Carvings no longer held much power.
But since they were the artifacts of an evil cultivator, it was safer to reclaim them.
The wealthy ladies had originally refused to give them up, but they also noticed that the Wood Carvings seemed to have lost their effect over the past few days, and began to wonder in secret.
Plus, the Supernatural Management Bureau had its own set of persuasive tactics, both soft and stringent.
These tactics forced those people to give up their possessions.
Jun Feifei was still waiting for classmates to find a solution when the Supernatural Management Bureau turned up at her door...
