Chapter 1308: Something went wrong while busy
Ayu knew he had made a terrible move.
He originally intended to use his timid and unpresentable image to get Lin Fan to drive him away, so as to avoid losing face for Changtianmen in front of the Youye Sect members, thereby reducing contact.
Since he was caught in the study last time, he has noticed that Su Ze is paying more attention to him.
He knew that Su Ze was Lin Fan's spy, and as if he had truly repented, he focused all his attention on cultivation.
At the same time, he finally took this opportunity to deliberately release his long-suppressed cultivation into the Qi Refining stage.
This provides him with an extra layer of protection, both in terms of his status and his personal talent—even if he can no longer stay in Yinyuewu in the future, as a qualified inner disciple, he can still maintain a good quality of life in Changtianmen.
I originally thought that Lin Fan's departure would take at least a year and a half, or even longer.
In time, as long as he doesn't continue to be caught making mistakes, his insignificant errors will eventually fade into the past and be forgotten.
Who would have thought that before a single season had even ended, the person was back?
Which legitimate disciple goes out for training for the first time and then returns to the sect every few days?
Ayu didn't understand, but he could only accept it.
But along with the pressure came exciting good news—Lin Fan was poisoned and his life might be in danger.
If she were to die, A-Yu would probably be the only person in the entire Changtianmen who would feel truly relieved.
Since arriving at Yinyuewu, he realized that he had greatly underestimated that silly girl.
No, how could she be considered stupid? Her learning and adaptation speed amazed even A-Yu, who considered himself intelligent.
The reason people misunderstand her as being foolish is because her past life environment made her too ignorant, like a fool.
If she had been given the right support, her abilities would never have been discovered at such an advanced age.
Lin Fan's gradually revealed intelligence and keenness made A Yu wary, but the favorable natural conditions of Yin Yue Wu, with few people and little trouble, were indeed a rare and suitable place for him in Chang Tian Men.
Fortunately, Lin Fan was focused on his studies and didn't care much about things outside of cultivation.
Ah Yu always behaved himself and was cautious in front of her, thus gaining a period of the easy life he had always dreamed of.
If Lin Fan hadn't suddenly returned and exposed his true colors, A Yu would have hoped that Lin Fan would continue to do well.
The better she is, the more freedom he will have as a servant of Yinyuewu.
However, his disguise was accidentally torn, and although he quickly patched it up, the stitches were still being watched by people.
Danger!
Ayu's initial composure was shattered. On the surface, he remained as docile as before, but inwardly he remained tense. He wanted to deliver Su Ze's message to Lin Fan with his best performance.
He hoped the matter would fade with time, but traces remain. The scene of his arrest replayed repeatedly in his mind, like a stain on a blank sheet of paper—how could anyone not care?
If only this had never happened! But turning back time is too difficult.
Then the only hope is for the disappearance of the person with whom the relationship exists.
Su Ze was unimportant; he was merely a servant and not enough to trigger his sense of crisis.
So every day, A-Yu prayed in his heart that Lin Fan would get into trouble.
It would be best if he died. If that's not possible, it would be best if he suffered a fatal injury, limiting his abilities and stopping at the Qi Refining stage.
Even the most talented person becomes useless if they can't continue cultivating. Changtian Sect will no longer give Lin Fan much attention, so he no longer needs to fear her.
Of course, death is still the best option, ending it all.
But he also knew in his heart that with Lin Fan's abilities, the treasures she possessed, and the people she was with, the possibility of something going wrong was extremely small.
But in the journey of cultivating immortality, opportunity and danger always coexist. Perhaps if he thinks too much, his thoughts will be sensed by the Heavenly Dao?
Ah Yu had once thought this way by chance, but when it actually happened, he began to doubt whether he had the ability to use words.
Unfortunately, his happiness didn't last long.
People from the Youye Sect arrived, and Lin Fan was rescued...
Just as Ayu was overwhelmed by the overwhelming surprise, he was suddenly met with a precipitous reversal. His emotions fluctuated wildly like a roller coaster plunging from the clouds, and he almost couldn't maintain his long-held facade.
Fortunately, at that moment, everyone in Yinyuewu was focused on Lin Fan. When Su Ze's gaze swept over, he, like the others, looked relieved.
It was indeed a pity that Lin Fan didn't die. A Yu decided to continue with his previous plan—to minimize his presence and stay as far away from Lin Fan as possible to avoid reminding her of him.
Su Ze's advice not to appear in front of Lin Fan was exactly what he wanted, but Antonio's appearance ruined his plans.
He was, after all, a servant, and if he refused to do his duty without cause, it would only attract Su Ze's attention. So he devised a way to harm himself. In any case, his image was deeply ingrained in people's minds, so it was logical for him to be fearful in the face of trouble.
He knew that most people in the upper class couldn't stand this timid demeanor, but that was exactly what he wanted.
If the people of the Youye Sect find him repulsive, they could tell him to leave. Or perhaps Lin Fan finds him shameful. In any case, he can achieve his goal of leaving as soon as possible and getting away from Lin Fan.
But to his utter surprise, the two of them didn't play by his rules at all.
When Lin Fan pointed out that he was afraid of her, A Yu's heart almost jumped out of her throat.
He didn't have time to consider whether this "fear" referred to his pretense or whether Lin Fan had already seen through his true feelings. Afraid that further probing would uncover his deeper malice, he quickly made up an excuse.
But as soon as the words left his mouth, he knew he was in trouble. There was no turning back now; even knowing it was wrong, he couldn't easily change his mind.
Sure enough, the red-haired guy from the Youye Sect stuck to him like a snake clinging to a stick.
Ayu could only continue with his persona, trembling all over, unable to kneel down, his eyes red with anxiety, and he spoke helplessly with tears welling up in his eyes.
“I… I misspoke. I… I just… Jin Tong and we’ve known each other since we entered the sect. She… no, I shouldn’t have said anything about her. I just… Senior Sister, please forgive me. I’m just worried that one day I might suddenly die in a strange place. I’m just afraid… I… I’m sorry, Senior Sister…”
Ah Yu's words were incoherent, and he started wiping his eyes as if he was about to cry.
Lin Fan and Antonio both looked at him indifferently, showing neither sympathy nor annoyance at discovering something.
What's going on with these two people?
Ayu dared not look any longer, covering his eyes with his hands, already letting out a "whoosh," while cursing inwardly.
"Hey, what's going on?" A pretty female voice suddenly broke the deadlock.
Antonio looked up and saw a round-faced girl emerge from behind a wall at the end of the path. Her cheerful face looked slightly bewildered at the sight before her.
It was none other than Wu Yi, whom we hadn't seen in a long time.
Guan Ying, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, squinted at the scene not far away, her brows furrowed.
Su Ze quickly leaped out from behind the inner wall, which was some distance away, and walked in front of the two to lead the way: "Senior Sister Wu, Senior Sister Guan, it's been a long time. Please forgive me for not greeting you properly."
"No need to be so polite," Wu Yi said with a smile, waving her hand and following him toward the stone table. "When we lived here before, we treated this place like our own cave and troubled the dormitory manager quite a bit. You go about your business, no need to make special arrangements for us."
Su Ze knew that they were from the same village as Lin Fan, had a good relationship with him, and had lived here for a year, so they were indeed familiar with each other. Therefore, he did not stand on ceremony.
When he led the person to Lin Fan, he bowed deeply to Lin Fan with a serious expression and apologized: "I'm sorry, it was my fault for not doing my job properly and it affected the mood of my senior sister and our distinguished guest. I'll take the person away right away and bring someone else..."
He grabbed A-Yu's hand tightly and pulled him behind him so that no one could see his dead state.
“No need,” Guan Ying said, holding a slender-necked jade bottle in one hand and several cups in the other, raising them to Su Ze. “You go about your business, we can take care of ourselves.”
“Yes, yes.” Wu Yi also brought out a bunch of snacks and placed them on the stone table, and said with a smile, “The dormitory manager can go ahead and do his work. We have a lot of questions we would like to ask the seniors of Youye Sect.”
Su Ze knew they wanted to be alone, and smiled in agreement. But as soon as he turned around, his face fell, and he grabbed A Yu's arm and quickly disappeared into the courtyard.
Wu Yi plopped down next to Lin Fan, grabbed her hand, and patted her chest, saying, "You really scared me to death."
Antonio had already taken Guan Ying's glass, squinting as he watched her pour the wine, and teased with a smile, "You, Lin Jian, are tough as nails, which King of Hell would dare to take her?"
On the 8th day of my diet, I've lost 7 pounds.
It's true that controlling your diet can lead to weight loss.
I wasn't that hungry. I just hadn't eaten any snacks.
Breakfast is a cornbread bun and a yogurt. Lunch is a piece of fruit, and after my afternoon nap, I have a bag of nuts. Dinner is a big bowl of winter melon and kelp soup. Anyway, I'm not hungry. I might have another piece of fruit in the evening. I've been eating like this for the past few days.
During that time, I was on my period, so I did light exercise at home for half an hour each day.
I feel okay today, probably because I don't do physical labor and don't feel noticeably weak.
I started with a pound a day, now it's half a pound a day. Once the numbers stop dropping, I'll have to increase my exercise.
I hope I lose weight quickly so I can eat again!
Haha, dieting just to eat. I'm really something else.
Actually, that's not entirely true. It's because I can't fit into the clothes I bought when I was thinner. In recent years, I've reduced my spending, buying clothes that cost only ten or twenty yuan. I have a lot of clothes in my closet that cost hundreds of yuan, and they don't fit anymore. Plus, the older I get, the less suitable my style becomes. I want to quickly lose weight back to my former weight so I can still wear clothes and not waste my resources. Hahaha.
Eating is so enjoyable, but dieting is so hard.
I specifically asked AI today, and they said my weight should be between 110 and 120 pounds, which is a standard healthy range, and it was indeed my weight back then. I just don't know how long it will take to reach that point.
The hardest part is that I haven't been able to eat all sorts of delicious food in so long!
Yeah, I'll try my best, keep going! I can do it!
