She lightly furrowed her brows, losing some sharpness, gaining some softness.
"Back then, I waited for you for a long time. It wasn’t that you broke a promise, but you never intended to come see me... I guess you deceived me once, we are even now, right..."
It’s even now.
Li Luo, after all, is Zhou Zhiruo, won’t indulge too much in her own emotions, then stopped her tears.
"If I had to choose again, I’d probably still deceive you."
Sui Yi’s fingers paused slightly, would rather sacrifice herself as eagle’s meat than let her offer blood?
She turned her face, pressing against Li Luo’s abdomen, just like in that lifetime when the foolish Ah Dai was comforted by Luoluo...
"Then... are you still looking for Zhao Min?"
Uh... it’s clearly quite a beautiful and moving scene...
Once she said this, the imagery changed.
Li Luo’s body stiffened, pursing her lips: "If found, then what?"
"Hmm... help you defeat Zhang Wuji and snatch her."
Snatch her.
Elegant and composed.
Li Luo’s eye twitched, emotions instantly drained away, she let go and said casually: "I’ll be watching."
Uh....
Seems like she’s not too happy.
Sui Yi slightly tilted her head, chuckled, suddenly hearing the phone ringing on the mat nearby...
With a flick, the phone was in her hand.
It was a call from Su Zimu.
"Middle of the night, you really have to play with water? Can’t a person get some sleep..."
Su Zimu seemed to have just woken up, still raspy, half complaining, soft and gentle, incredibly enticing.
And Sui Yi and Li Luo glanced briefly at the far floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor of the house... through the drawn curtains, seeing Su Zimu in pajamas, a helpless expression.
But!
Seems like the sound of Sui Yi playing with water wasn’t that loud...
Li Luo looked down at someone rolling up their pant legs, revealing their entire calf...
"Hehe."
She chuckled, then walked away.
Su Zimu naturally heard the sound, her gaze pulled away from the roof person’s bare, long and white calves that even reflected light, face burning, quickly pulling the curtains shut.
Sui Yi: "..."
So, it’s only when she’s the High Priest that these ladies show her some respect?
————————
After a day or two of probing, it finally was confirmed the High Priest had indeed left, mainly proved by someone’s attitude.
Gong Jiu and the others breathed a sigh of relief, yet felt some reluctance, they said, the High Priest’s presence and charisma were exceptionally powerful, bending people like mosquito coils in a moment...
As for Sui Yi... get bent like a sweet donut.
"Sui Yi Sui Yi, darling Sui Yi..." Gong Jiu began to flirt playfully while holding Sui Yi’s arm, but it was actually about serious business.
Nothing more than wrapping up the affairs between the official and private fronts from a few days ago.
The Imperial Guards and Central Prison reached an understanding, fully controlling Peach Blossom Source and Cherry Snow Forest, the Ghost Party first-rate was scared stiff by the High Priest, didn’t need the officials to issue any deportation papers, rolled up their things and left, as for the Noble Clan side, Mo Ke and Mo Tu rarely joined hands with Qi Xun and other promising youth to overthrow the older generation, seizing power, of course, a large number of people were injured and couldn’t leave the Capital City for fear of being ambushed mid-way by enemies, however resting quietly has its own risks, some died, some families collapsed, inevitably freeing up resources, leading to another surge of hidden currents as people vie for them...
"I reckon, Sui Yi, your good roommate Miss Mo’s status will be quite different next time she visits."
Among the Noble Clan, the initial upheaval was greatest in Mo Family, but Miss Mo turned things around astoundingly, emerged as the leader, with Jhiang Family fallen, Mo Family’s positive energy and strength secured the top spot among the Noble Clan.
"I heard the Patriarch Mo has been confined by the Elders Council... truly a single misstep can’t be afforded."
Although discussing someone’s father behind their back isn’t very dignified, Miss Mo even overthrew her father, they don’t really need to avoid it now.
Even Huang Long, who was resting here with Sui Yi, perked up his ears to chat about the gossip.
And Sui Yi, hidden in the sofa reading, merely responded with one sentence.
"It’s not a misstep, but deliberate, father does not fall, how can the child ascend."
With one simple sentence, a chill ran through everyone present.
Meaning... that dignified and solemn Family Head deliberately...
Everyone suddenly recalled his shared smile with Sui Yi at the Peach Blossom Source.
Whoa!
This sly old fox is so slick he could be used as aircraft carrier fuel!
Of course, most importantly, the Sect Master aligned with this sly old fox from the start.
