Chapter 503: Different Lingxuzi 2
"Something's wrong, something's wrong!"
Seeing Lingxuzi's abnormal behavior, Bai Yue's heart was filled with alarm bells - why did the man who used to be so cool and aloof act like a clingy big dog today?
"Da Zhuang, your master means well, so just try it!"
Just at this moment, Shen Xingmian suddenly spoke, breaking the subtle awkwardness.
"Yes! This is someone's kindness, don't be ungrateful!"
As Shen Xingmian's "number one bootlicker", Ming Jingxing naturally agrees with whatever his beloved says.
Bai Yue had no choice but to move closer and take a bite of the tofu pudding with the spoon Lingxuzi handed to her.
"good to eat!"
The tofu pudding was sweet and tender in her mouth, and she couldn't help but exclaim in praise.
Lingxuzi seemed to be greatly encouraged, and immediately scooped another spoonful and handed it to her, his tone full of excitement.
“If it tastes good, eat more!”
"it is good!"
Bai Yue was not pretentious. She took what he fed her and finished the whole bowl of tofu pudding in just a few bites.
"Ahem, Master! It's time for you to take a medicinal bath!"
Ruo Miao suddenly coughed lightly, abruptly interrupting the interaction between the two.
"Medicated bath?"
Lingxuzi frowned slightly, obviously not taking this matter to heart.
"The scars on your body can only fade away with regular medicinal baths! Master was afraid you'd forget about them when you went out, so he specifically asked me and my senior sister to keep an eye on you!"
Ruo Miao hurriedly explained, her tone a little anxious.
"Then we'll talk about it tonight."
Lingxuzi's eyes never left Bai Yue.
When Ruomiao heard this, she immediately shook her head.
"Master said that this medicinal bath is most effective only when taken at noon! Master, you've missed the time. If Master knew about this, he would definitely..."
"I won't tell her."
Lingxuzi interrupted impatiently, his tone full of perfunctory - at this moment, let alone taking a medicinal bath, even if the sky fell, it would not be as important as the person in front of him.
When Ruo Miao saw that he couldn't persuade Lingxuzi, he rolled his eyes and immediately turned his target to Bai Yue.
"Brother Ruozhi, please persuade the Sect Master! This medicinal bath really can't be delayed!"
"Master, Ruo Miao is right. The body is the foundation. You still..."
Before Bai Yue could finish her words, Lingxuzi immediately turned around and gave Ruomiao instructions.
"Go prepare the medicinal bath."
The contrast between before and after is so great that anyone with a discerning eye can see that he only listens to Bai Yue.
"Yes! Let's get ready now!"
Ruoxu quickly pulled Ruomiao upstairs, and before leaving, he secretly made a "thank you" gesture to Baiyue.
Lingxuzi brought another bowl of tofu pudding to Bai Yue's mouth, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Eat more?"
"Master, I've eaten too much and can't swallow any more!"
Bai Yue quickly waved her hands and refused the other party's feeding.
In order to divert attention, she pointed to Ruo Chi who had not said a word from beginning to end.
"By the way, Junior Brother Ruochi likes sweet food, why don't you feed him some?"
"Nonsense! Who said I like sweet things?"
Ruo Chi quickly put down the pear blossom pastry in her hand and glared at Bai Yue with dissatisfaction, with a suspicious blush on her cheeks.
"Since you sat down, you've already eaten five pear blossom cakes and ten pineapple cakes. You even added three spoonfuls of them to your soy milk..."
Before Bai Yue could even utter the word "sugar", Ming Jingxing suddenly slammed the table and glared at her.
"You little brat! Why are you peeping at the Taoist priest eating when you have nothing better to do?"
He frowned, and suddenly showed an expression of "I understand", and his tone became more angry.
"Don't tell me you think I'm handsome, so..."
Before the five words "old cow eats young grass" were uttered, Bai Yue interrupted quickly with an innocent look on her face.
"No, Grandpa! It's just a habit! Look, Grandma Shen just had a bowl of tofu pudding and two meat buns, and you had two bowls of wontons, three steamed buns, and..."
She rattled off a list of how much each person at the table had eaten, even not forgetting who had added half a spoonful of extra vinegar.
"Wow! Dazhuang, you are so amazing! Do you have a photographic memory?"
Shen Xingmian immediately applauded, his face full of admiration.
"Of course! This is my grandson! He's just as smart as me!"
Ming Jingxing felt proud instantly and raised his hand to pat Bai Yue's shoulder to show off.
But before his hand touched Bai Yue, a whisk firmly wrapped around his wrist.
Lingxuzi's eyes were cold and his tone contained a hint of warning.
"Don't touch her."
"Hey! You little brat, I'm her grandfather, what's wrong with touching her?"
Ming Jingxing exerted a little force on his hand, and the whisk broke into two pieces with a "snap".
Then, he picked up the chopsticks on the table and held them against Lingxuzi's throat like a sword, his eyes as sharp as a knife.
"Is this... Tianyi Sword Technique?"
The other person's pupils suddenly shrank, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Are you Elder Tianyi?"
"The little Taoist priest is quite knowledgeable."
Ming Jingxing sneered, his tone full of disdain.
"Even if your master came, he wouldn't dare to act rashly in front of me. How dare you, a young boy, stop me?"
"Grandpa! He's my master, just let it go for my sake!"
Bai Yue quickly rushed forward and stood between the two to smooth things over, fearing that a fight would really break out.
"Count? That won't do!"
Ming Jingxing stiffened his neck.
"He actually dared to attack me. Even if the stinky old Taoist Yi Nian came to plead for mercy today..."
"Brother Ming, forget it."
Shen Xingmian's voice suddenly sounded, with a soft tone.
"Xingmian said forget it, so of course forget it!"
Ming Jingxing immediately put down his chopsticks and sat back down next to Shen Xingmian, his tone becoming eight degrees softer.
"If you're done eating, I'll take you to the market, okay?"
"Okay!"
Shen Xingmian's eyes lit up and he instantly became interested.
"Then let's go!"
Ming Jingxing immediately turned into a flower-guarding messenger, and the two of them walked out of the inn chatting and laughing.
"Um... I'm done eating too. I'm going back to my room to rest."
Bai Yue stood up and tried to escape, but Lingxuzi suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time, you..."
Lingxuzi suddenly stopped talking in the middle of his words, his eyes instantly covered with a layer of mist, and he was about to cry.
"Master! Didn't we agree last night not to cry? Why did you change your mind after going out?"
Bai Yue quickly took out her handkerchief and wanted to wipe his tears.
"Master, the medicinal bath is ready. Please soak in it while it's hot!"
Ruo Miao's voice suddenly came from upstairs, breaking the atmosphere.
"Yes, Master, go take a medicinal bath first. It's not too late to talk after you're done."
Bai Yue quickly agreed, hoping to take the opportunity to escape.
Lingxuzi did not let go, his eyes filled with pleading.
"Then you must wait for me in the room. I'll come find you after I'm done soaking, okay?"
"Forehead……"
Bai Yue looked at his eager eyes and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her waist.
But seeing that Lingxuzi's tears were about to fall again, she could only nod quickly.
"Ok, I will wait for you."
So the two of them walked up to the second floor together. When they passed by Ruo Miao, a hint of gloom flashed in the girl's eyes.
At this time, Ruo Chi was the only one still sitting in the hall. He picked up a piece of osmanthus pastry, stroked the pastry with his fingertips, and suddenly laughed softly.
“He can actually tell that I like sweet things… This Senior Brother Ruozhi is really a bit scary.
