Transmigrated as the Destined Villain, My Senior Brothers Are Chasing After My Love Chapter 124

Chapter 124: You, You Like Men?

Ye Zhanxiu glared at him. “Didn’t you say you wanted immortality back then? Why do you view these worldly possessions so heavily now?”

“Master, living long in poverty and living long with good food, drink, and riches—can they be the same?”

Ye Zhanxiu: “…”

He wanted to scold him a bit, but was afraid of scaring the child. Ye Zhanxiu shut his mouth in silence. After a long while, he said to Ye Jingxian, “Master thinks your Little Junior Brother’s recovery time should be extended by another two months.”

Lin Qingyue: ???

“Master, no need, right?”

Another two months? How long would he be recovering? Lin Qingyue hurriedly said, “Master, recovering for so long—isn’t this questioning Uncle-Master Su’s medical skills? Uncle-Master will definitely be the first to disagree.”

He would really tell Uncle-Master Su that Master doubted her medical skills and didn’t believe her, insisting he recover for two months.

Ye Zhanxiu chuckled lightly. Playing mind games with him. He said calmly, “She is only your Uncle-Master, but she is my Junior Sister.”

Lin Qingyue: Why did he hear a sense of showing off??

A wise man submits to circumstances; able to bend and stretch. Lin Qingyue coughed lightly and said grievously, “Master, I know I was wrong.”

Regardless of whether he was wrong or where he was wrong, admit the mistake first.

Seeing him like this, Ye Zhanxiu and Ye Jingxian didn’t extend the recovery time, but the medicine to be drunk couldn’t be one bowl less. Saying recover meant really recover.

bringing Si Yi to Guicang Peak, Su Ling stopped in her tracks. An imperceptible smile rose on the corner of her mouth, and she said to him, “Let’s go back. We’ll come another day.”

Si Yi, who had just found an opportunity to see Lin Qingyue, didn’t know why Master wanted to go back. “Master, aren’t we going to see Senior Brother Lin?”

Su Ling: “He’s fine, no need to worry.”

That’s not the point, Master.

“Send the medicine over to Qingyue and the others in a while.”

Su Ling spoke. Si Yi’s eyes lit up, and he promised with a smile, “Master rest assured, this disciple will definitely deliver it.” It would be fine even if he delivered the medicine every time in the future.

Seeing him happy, Su Ling said, “You knew them before; do you like them that much now?”

“Of course I like them. Qingyue and the others are this disciple’s saviors.” Si Yi smiled. “We are all martial brothers; delivering medicine is what I should do.”

Hearing this, Su Ling just smiled.

On the fifth day of recovery, bored to death, Lin Qingyue heard Yu Qianqian came to see him. He shot up from the recliner; at least she had a conscience.

“Lin Qingyue, are you okay?”

Yu Qianqian really thought he had been injured by Uncle-Master Qi. She truly felt Yun Jinzhou was a disaster star; whoever got close had bad luck.

Lin Qingyue was truly too miserable.

But seeing Lin Qingyue eating and drinking well with glowing eyes, she said in surprise, “Has Uncle-Master Su’s medical skill reached this level? Such heavy injuries healed in a few days?”

Such a smooth talker; Yu Qianqian should go talk to Master.

“I wasn’t seriously injured at all,” Lin Qingyue said. “I’m being forced to recover now.”

“Yu Qianqian, are we friends?”

“Of course we are!” Yu Qianqian said without thinking.

Lin Qingyue smiled. “Shouldn’t friends help each other?”

When he said this, Yu Qianqian became alert, narrowing her eyes slightly. “What do you want to do?”

“This is a great tonic. I’m sharing it with you to drink. Don’t say I, this friend, don’t care about you. Good things naturally must be saved for you.” Lin Qingyue took out the medicine he hadn’t drunk today and gave it to her.

Yu Qianqian took a good while to react, putting her hands behind her back and retreating two steps.

“If you’re a good friend, down this bowl.”

“Are you really okay?”

At first, hearing he was okay, Yu Qianqian believed it. Now she suspected: was he really okay? He didn’t look like it.

“Could it be… actually, your brain was injured?”

Lin Qingyue: “…”

“I’ve seen people persuade others to drink alcohol, but this is the first time encountering someone persuading others to drink medicine.” Yu Qianqian was very confused. “Mainly, you get injured and make me drink medicine; this is also a first for me.”

Lin Qingyue’s face twisted for a moment. “You didn’t listen to a word I said earlier, did you?”

“Yu Qianqian, this is a great tonic! I’m only giving it to you because you’re a friend. Ordinary people wouldn’t get it even if they begged.”

He spoke too seriously; Yu Qianqian started doubting herself.

“Really?”

“Of course it’s real. Why would I lie to you?” Afraid she wouldn’t believe, Lin Qingyue hurriedly added, “This is a great tonic prescribed by Uncle-Master Su in cooperation with my Master. Do you want to try?”

He was telling the truth; there was no trace of falsehood. Yu Qianqian believed it and felt a bit embarrassed. “It’s not good if I drink it; this is your medicine.”

Lin Qingyue hid the joy in his heart and said solemnly, “What is our relationship? We are good friends, friends who share blessings. It’s just a bowl of medicine; however many bowls is fine.”

Yu Qianqian felt something was wrong somewhere. “Really?”

“Really.” Lin Qingyue shoved the medicine into her hand. “Drink it, it’s fine. Down in one gulp; don’t waste it.”

Yu Qianqian inexplicably drank the medicine. The result—as soon as the medicine entered her mouth, she almost lost her teeth from the bitterness.

“No, why is it so bitter?”

“It’s all medicine; how could it not be bitter? Would it be medicine if it weren’t bitter?” Lin Qingyue said matter-of-factly.

Realizing what happened, Yu Qianqian widened her eyes. “This bitter medicine is yours; why am I drinking it?”

“Lin Qingyue, you’re bullying me.” She suspected, “You just didn’t want to drink medicine and wanted me to help you drink it, right?”

Lin Qingyue smiled innocently. “Hehe, good friends, helping each other, isn’t it?”

Wasn’t it just seeing her come and being so easy to fool, giving it a try?

“Since you drank it, drink it all. Don’t waste it.”

Yu Qianqian: “…”

After finishing a bowl of bitter and astringent medicine, Yu Qianqian drank several mouthfuls of water.

“Cough cough. Actually, I need to leave the sect for a trip, but you know my dad has been controlling me very strictly lately.”

“What do you mean?”

“Just… I want to leave the sect.”

“You call that strict control? Is it as miserable as me? Forced to recover, drinking two bowls of medicine every day.”

Speaking of this, Lin Qingyue shed bitter tears. His Eldest Senior Brother supervised him every day; he couldn’t escape at all.

“So you want to go out?” Yu Qianqian looked excited. “I’ve already thought of a method. Let’s go together. Coincidentally, the Hehuan Sect is recruiting disciples recently. Shall we go take a look together?”

Lin Qingyue understood. Seeing him was reason one; wanting to leave the sect was reason two.

“You just want to go out and play.” Why didn’t he believe this? Lin Qingyue stared into her eyes. “Nothing else?”

“Of course.”

Hearing the guilt in her voice, Lin Qingyue didn’t believe it at all. Something’s wrong, very wrong.

“Yu Qianqian, confess honestly. Are you hiding something from me?”

“Aiya, actually nothing else. Just… just that I want to go out and find people to compete in saber techniques with.” She spoke with some embarrassment.

“You haven’t fought in the Sect Competition, and you can still go to the Tower of Trials; there are plenty of people to fight you. Why go out? You aren’t telling the truth.”

Lin Qingyue didn’t believe her words. Frowning, his gaze intensified. “Yu Qianqian, confess honestly.”

“Aiya, fine, I’ll tell the truth. I just found out my mom actually arranged a betrothal for me when she was pregnant with me.”

Lin Qingyue’s radar pinged. “What did you say? Child betrothal? You just found out?”

The fiancé came about just like that?

“You aren’t leaving the sect to find this so-called fiancé, are you? You like him?” Lin Qingyue frowned deeply. “Did you forget what I told you back then? You have a love tribulation.”

He wished he could shake Yu Qianqian awake right now, immediately. Do not attempt to fall in love with a man you haven’t even met, and do not spend effort on him, or you’re done for.

Lin Qingyue stared at her. If she dared say yes, it was over.

Yu Qianqian: “Aiya, no. I’m looking for him for nothing else. I don’t even know him; how could I like him? I just want to tell him I don’t like him, I have someone I like, and our engagement doesn’t count.”

“You have someone you like!”

Lin Qingyue’s voice was a bit agitated. “Yu Qianqian, think carefully about what I said before.”

He truly felt resentful that iron didn’t become steel. Yu Qianqian was startled by his volume rising a notch.

She asked somewhat uncertainly, “Senior Brother Lin, could you be…”

Clang! A sound startled both of them. They looked towards the door. Ye Jingxian withdrew his gaze from the broken bowl on the floor and said to them indifferently, “Hand slipped.”

“Eldest Senior Brother.”

Looking at the spilled medicine on the floor, joy flashed across Lin Qingyue’s face. Eldest Senior Brother’s slip of hand was truly excellent.

“It doesn’t matter, Eldest Senior Brother.”

A smile floated onto his face. Trying hard to suppress the corners of his mouth, he said to Ye Jingxian, “Thank you for your trouble, Eldest Senior Brother. Not drinking this medicine today won’t affect anything. I already finished the previous bowl, so I won’t trouble Eldest Senior Brother.”

So don’t bring him another bowl. Lin Qingyue wore a smile, his eyes full of pleading. But Ye Jingxian only saw his dazzling smile, feeling inexplicably stifled in his heart.

“Junior Sister Yu.”

Meeting Ye Jingxian’s gaze, Yu Qianqian felt uncomfortable all over. Why was Senior Brother Ye’s aura still so scary?

She looked at Lin Qingyue guiltily. “Senior Brother Lin, I’ll come see you another day.”

While speaking, she winked at him. She didn’t want Senior Brother Ye to know, or her dad would lecture her again.

Before Lin Qingyue could speak, Yu Qianqian slipped away quickly, leaving only Lin Qingyue and Ye Jingxian.

He hadn’t finished warning her, and the person was already gone. Lin Qingyue couldn’t say anything even if he wanted to.

“Coming and going like the wind, always in a rush.” Was his Eldest Senior Brother that scary? She ran as soon as he came.

He muttered a sentence. Ye Jingxian’s hand inside his sleeve clenched subconsciously. “Little Junior Brother likes Junior Sister Yu very much.”

Hearing nothing wrong, Lin Qingyue smiled and said, “Junior Sister Yu is quite cute.”

If she knew Yu Qianqian ran away because she was afraid of him, would his Eldest Senior Brother be hurt? Lin Qingyue looked at him and decided to change the subject.

“Eldest Senior Brother, betrothals in the cultivation world can be unilaterally dissolved if no oath was made to the Heavenly Dao, right?”

Ye Jingxian heard some of what they said. Now that Lin Qingyue asked about Yu Qianqian’s betrothal, he suddenly regretted it; he shouldn’t have waited back then.

“Little Junior Brother.”

The sudden serious tone made Lin Qingyue look at him. “What is it, Eldest Senior Brother?”

“Does our previous bet still count?”

“Of course it counts; I accept my loss. What does Eldest Senior Brother want me to do?” Lin Qingyue asked.

It was agreed back then; he wouldn’t go back on his word.

“Good. My first request is that I want Little Junior Brother to wait for me at Liaowang Pavilion (Pavilion of Gazing Afar) at Shenshi (3-5 PM) today and listen to me say something.”

“That’s it?” Lin Qingyue listened in disbelief. “Eldest Senior Brother, just that?”

“Mn, just that.”

He knew Eldest Senior Brother wouldn’t make things difficult for him, but Lin Qingyue hadn’t expected it to be this simple.

“Eldest Senior Brother, it’s just some words; you can say them anytime. No need to specially use up a promise.”

Such obvious leniency made him embarrassed.

“Little Junior Brother, this is my request. The remaining two will be redeemed later.”

He insisted, so Lin Qingyue simply accepted and nodded. “Alright.”

Lin Qingyue arrived at the place he mentioned. Watching the gradually setting sun, he sat down, brewed a pot of tea himself, and tasted it leisurely.

After waiting only a quarter of an hour, Ye Jingxian arrived.

Today he wore green robes, his figure tall and slender. The green shirt was plain and light like fresh bamboo, his charm graceful like a cloud crane. His clothes fluttered like ripples on emerald waves, cool and untainted by dust.

Orchid lapel, bamboo charm; a divine being from Gushe Mountain.

Lin Qingyue was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he had seen such a solemn and different Eldest Senior Brother.

He stood up and called out, “Eldest Senior Brother.”

“Little Junior Brother.”

Low, gentle, and magnetic—the melodious voice called him. Lin Qingyue was curious about what he was going to say.

What exactly was he going to say to be this formal?

“Eldest Senior Brother, what did you want to say?”

Ye Jingxian’s gaze was focused. Lin Qingyue’s silhouette was reflected in his eyes. Sensing the other’s burning gaze and the restrained, surging emotions in his eyes, Lin Qingyue seemed to detect a clue.

“Eldest Senior Brother.”

He opened his mouth, calling him softly.

Ye Jingxian revealed a gentle smile. “Little Junior Brother, I never thought there would be a day when my emotions would be swayed by one person, where all my joys, sorrows, and heartbeats would change with him at every moment, where everything would be beyond my control.”

Hearing up to here, Lin Qingyue understood. His eyes widened, shock in their depths, somewhat incredulous. Ye Jingxian actually has someone he likes.

He ran through his mind but didn’t find anyone fitting his description. Suddenly, he dared not breathe.

Usually, they didn’t have contact with many junior or senior sisters. Lin Qingyue was a bit confused.

“When I first realized I liked him, I thought it was just pity, just taking care of a fellow disciple. But soon I discovered it wasn’t so. I seem to truly like him—the kind of like where I want to become Dao companions with him in the future.”

Lin Qingyue’s throat moved. Startled by his sentence-after-sentence confession, he didn’t know what to say.

Meeting Ye Jingxian’s eyes, he was frightened by the scorching, burning emotions inside and hurriedly looked away.

“Little Junior Brother, I like you.”

“My first request is that I want you to listen to my feelings.”

Lin Qingyue’s brain had crashed. He subconsciously took a step back. A trace of hurt flashed in Ye Jingxian’s eyes, along with some panic, afraid of scaring him.

“Wait, wait!”

Suspecting he was hallucinating, Lin Qingyue looked up at him. Meeting the other’s sincere eyes, he realized he wasn’t joking.

He was somewhat at a loss. “You… you like men?”
