Chapter 81
Rice for He Chaoge
When Gu Wanquan returned from get out of class, he suddenly found an extra person in the yard.
The boy in black clothes stood in the courtyard, his originally arrogant face now showing a hint of confusion and helplessness.
It stood alone in the yard like an abandoned puppy.
Dressed in white, Gu Wanquan, with his signature harmless smile, cupped his hands towards Yin Chaoge and said, "Congratulations on Junior Brother Yin's successful Foundation Establishment!"
When Yin Chaoge, who was at a loss, saw Gu Wanquan, she felt as if she had seen a savior.
The arrogant Yin Chaoge whispered to Gu Wanquan, "Senior Brother Gu... I think I've angered Senior Brother Su!"
Gu Wanquan's smile faded slightly as he looked at Yin Chaoge and asked, "Senior Brother Su has a very good temper; he was probably just joking with me!"
Yin Chaoge shook his head and recounted what had happened after he entered the inner sect.
Gu Wanquan tapped the hilt of his longsword unconsciously twice with his fingers: "You mean, Senior Brother Su saved you, but you think his methods were too despicable?"
Yin Chaoge remained silent. Even though it was to save her, Yin Chaoge still felt there was something wrong with Su Yi's actions.
Gu Wanquan nodded and said, "That's really despicable!"
Yin Chaoge raised her head, a hint of gratitude on her face for being recognized.
But Gu Wanquan, with his hands clasped behind his back, looked at Yin Chaoge and said with a smile, "I'm talking about you, Junior Brother Yin!"
"If you throw a bone to a stray dog, it will wag its tail instead of baring its teeth!"
Gu Wanquan had a smile on his face, but his eyes flashed with coldness. His voice was gentle, but it sent chills down one's spine.
Sensing danger, Yin Chaoge leaped away from Gu Wanquan, a long sword suddenly appearing in her hand.
Yin Chaoge looked at Gu Wanquan, who was dressed in white with a sword hanging at his waist and stood there quietly, and felt as if she were being stared at by a venomous snake.
"Would you wag your tail and beg for mercy from a powerful opponent, yet draw your sword with complete self-righteousness from a friend?"
"You're truly despicable, Junior Brother Yin!"
Gu Wanquan did not take Yin Chaoge's attack stance seriously, but looked at Yin Chaoge with a slightly mocking expression and said.
Yin Chaoge said, word by word, "What I seek is nothing more than to be upright and honorable!"
Gu Wanquan, his right hand resting on the hilt of his sword, spoke with his smile unchanged: "Does your righteousness need to be built on Senior Brother Su's despicable actions?"
Upon hearing Gu Wanquan's words, Yin Chaoge's previously aggressive stance suddenly faltered.
He seemed to see those disappointed yet composed eyes from this afternoon.
Unconsciously, her fingers loosened. Yin Chaoge lowered her head in shame and said softly, "I know what Senior Brother Su did for me, but I..."

Looking at Yin Chaoge's state, Gu Wanquan felt that Yin Chaoge was not so hopeless, but a sudden surge of anger arose in his heart.
Su Yi is such a pushover; she wants to control everything and meddle in everything!
What's even more ridiculous is that after helping others, they still despise him for being despicable!
Gu Wanquan snorted coldly, suppressing his displeasure. He glanced at Yin Chaoge with disdain, then turned and went back to his room to review what he had learned that day.
Yin Chaoge was enraged by Gu Wanquan's disdainful glance, but she immediately lowered her head dejectedly.
In the courtyard, a gentle summer breeze blew, but it couldn't dispel the stubborn boy's obstinacy.
After a while of clanging and banging in the kitchen, Su Yi came out carrying a tray.
Looking at Yin Chaoge, who was still standing at attention in the courtyard, seemed a little strange.
Yin Chaoge and Su Yi exchanged a glance, then quickly lowered their heads.
Wait a minute, could it be that I overacted today and made the mute demon lord autistic?
Su Yi belatedly realized this, but she still didn't want to offend the future Demon Lord too much.
Place the tray on the stone table, and set the food on the stone table.
Although he had already established his foundation and practiced abstinence from grains, Su Yi still liked to cook a couple of side dishes to satisfy his cravings.
Moreover, since new people had arrived at the courtyard, Su Yi specially cooked two extra side dishes.
"Hey, Wan Quan, dinner's ready!" Su Yi called out to Gu Wan Quan's room as usual.
Dressed in white, Gu Wanquan walked out of the room with a book in one hand and a bright smile on his face.
Seeing Yin Chaoge still standing there, he felt a slight displeasure.
Gu Wanquan didn't understand why Yin Chaoge hadn't left yet. Did she intend to stay here as well?
Although puzzled, Gu Wanquan did not speak; they simply had different paths and could not work together.
After Su Yi and Gu Wanquan sat down, Su Yi looked at Yin Chaoge, who was still standing at attention, with surprise.
Has this silly child been tied up and gone mad?
They don't even come closer when it's time to eat?
Su Yi called out to Yin Chaoge, "What are you standing there for? Come and eat!"
Upon hearing Su Yi's voice, Yin Chaoge raised her head in a daze.
He just wanted to wait until Su Yi finished eating, say sorry, and then leave.
After all, his actions this afternoon hurt Su Yi's feelings, making it difficult for him to stay here any longer.
However, Yin Chaoge, who was arrogant by nature and suffered from social anxiety, couldn't bring herself to say an apology.
Her lips moved as if she was about to speak, but a hand grabbed her wrist.
"Hurry up, hurry up! Besides Ling Yao and Xiao Tian, you eat the most in the outer sect!"
As if forgetting what happened this afternoon, Su Yi naturally pulled Yin Chaoge and walked towards the stone table.
Yin Chaoge wanted to pull her hand back, but before she knew it, Su Yi had pulled her to the stone table.
"Sit down! You've just arrived at the inner sect; the hard times are yet to come. Eat more, don't be shy!"
Su Yi said cheerfully as she served rice to Yin Chaoge, "This courtyard is even bigger than the outer gate. Each person has their own room, so there's no need to guess Ye Zi anymore. Let me tell you, I always felt like Wan Quan was up to something last time we played Ye Zi!"
Upon hearing Su Yi's words, Gu Wanquan stiffened. How come this involves me?
Gu Wanquan was about to speak when he saw Su Yi looking at him mischievously, with an expression that said, "I know everything."
But knowing he had something to hide, Gu Wanquan simply lowered his head and ate his food.
Yin Chaoge's lips moved, and a soft voice was squeezed out from her throat: "Senior Brother Su, about what happened this afternoon..."
"Hey, buddy, let's not talk about that!" Su Yi patted Yin Chaoge on the shoulder without hesitation and said in a hearty manner.
The more open and honest Su Yi was, the more Yin Chaoge felt that he was petty and narrow-minded.
Sitting on the stone bench, looking down at my tightly clenched hands, I felt extremely tormented.
Yin Chaoge looked up when a bowl was handed to her.
What catches the eye is a pair of smiling, peach-blossom eyes, followed by the bright moonlight behind those eyes!
The bright moonlight shone into the courtyard, making Yin Chaoge somewhat dazed.
A light and lively voice rang out again, completely out of tune:
"This bowl of rice is to celebrate the successful establishment of the foundation of Chaoge!"
The boy in black clothes stood in the courtyard, his originally arrogant face now showing a hint of confusion and helplessness.
It stood alone in the yard like an abandoned puppy.
