Chapter 332 Pantothenic Acid
Brother Jiang Ming, Brother Jiang Ming.
He calls her Hall Master Jiang in public, but in private he always refers to her as Brother Jiang Ming.
It was somewhat intentional.
Shen Yao's IQ suddenly spiked, and she saw right through Mu Ling'er's little scheme.
Isn't it just that they're afraid she might also like Jiang Ming?
I'm sorry, but she really does like it.
But she didn't say.
Mu Ling'er thought Jiang Ming was good to her, but that was a misunderstanding.
It was just that Jiang Ming, who had been aloof and violent since childhood, didn't tell Mu Ling'er to get lost because Mu Ling'er was the most beloved granddaughter of Mu Qingxian.
From then on, Mu Ling'er believed that Jiang Ming treated her differently.
Every year during festivals, she would pester Mu Qingxianzu to take her to the True God Sect in Emperor Immortal City to present gifts, so that she could find an opportunity to talk to Jiang Ming.
But Jiang Ming isn't there every year.
Even when she's around, she might not have the chance to get close to him.
Jiang Ming's impression of her was limited to acquaintance; he didn't dislike her.
As the eldest daughter of the Mu family, Mu Ling'er was bound by strict etiquette, learned to be upright and proper, and very reserved.
In her own opinion, it was already quite outrageous for her to take the initiative to greet Jiang Ming, and she would never pester him to exchange tokens.
The exchange of tokens with Wang Xu took place a hundred years ago when Wang Xu came to Jinsha City on business.
Upon learning that she liked the sect leader, Wang Xu was happy to play matchmaker and would often tell her how good the sect leader was.
Later, after discovering that the head of the hall had no intention of finding a fairy partner, Wang Xu reduced the number of times he communicated with her.
After meeting Shen Yao, Wang Xu rarely replied to Mu Ling'er's messages anymore.
This time, Mu Ling'er came to the Chongcheng branch sect. When she arrived in Chongcheng, she also sent a message to Wang Xu, asking him to take her into the branch sect.
She sent the message at a convenient time, just as Jiang Ming was injured and Wang Xu was rushing back to Fengshen Hall. He read the message and then put away the communication token without replying.
Mu Ling'er stayed at the Chongcheng Inn for one night. She sent two messages to Wang Xu, one in the morning and one at noon, but received no reply.
At that time, Wang Xu was focused on watching over the unconscious hall master. When he saw that the message was from Mu Ling'er, he didn't open it to read it.
She waited until the afternoon before coming to the branch sect on her own. She happened to meet the Tiger Gate Envoy who knew her, who let her in and gave her directions to the Wind God Hall.
Coincidentally, I ran into Shen Yao again at the entrance of Fengshen Hall.
When they reached the third floor, Shen Yao reminded Mu Ling'er to avoid her being shocked and losing her composure when she suddenly saw Jiang Ming injured: "Hall Master Jiang is injured, and quite seriously. When you go in, don't get too excited."
"Brother Jiang Ming is injured?!" Mu Ling'er immediately became anxious: "Where is he injured? How did he get hurt?"
Shen Yao told her to keep her voice down and comforted her, "It will be fine in two or three days. Don't worry, don't spread it around. This matter hasn't been told to anyone."
Mu Ling'er nodded in agreement: "I won't tell anyone, don't worry."
Shen Yao thought to herself, "Isn't this pretty obedient?"
Was he acting all fierce at the door just for her?
After walking a few steps, Mu Ling'er suddenly said, "You are a good disciple. When I become your master's wife, I will treat you well too."
Shen Yao almost couldn't help but drop the food box in her hand.
She gripped the handle of the food box tightly and forced a fake smile: "Then thank you very much, Master's wife."
She quickened her pace, shaking off Mu Ling'er, and strode to Chenfeng Pavilion. With a 'bang,' she pushed open the door, walked in with a sullen face, shoved the food box into Wang Xu's hand, and then walked out with another sullen face.
Jiang Ming and Wang Xu were both bewildered. What was going on?
In the Wind God Hall, is there anyone foolish enough to provoke her?
Mu Ling'er stood at the door, looking at the walls covered with portraits of Shen Yao, feeling sad and having some thoughts of leaving.
At the Feng family's treasure appraisal event, she noticed that Jiang Ming had feelings for Shen Xianzi that were unusual. Later, when she heard that they were together, she gave up on the idea.
Later, when she heard that Fairy Shen had disappeared in the Thunder Secret Realm, she was worried for a while.
Mainly, she had a good impression of Shen Yao at the treasure appraisal event; she really liked that arrogant female immortal.
Moreover, she was worried that Jiang Ming was too heartbroken, because she had heard that he had been searching for Shen Yao in the secret realm.
Knowing full well that he already had someone else in his heart, she didn't entertain any further fantasies.
Until recent years, when evil cultivators became rampant, her grandmother sent her to the True God Sect, where she cultivated under the guidance of the sect's second elder for two years.
During this time, she heard rumors that Shen Yao had abandoned her husband and child after having a son with Jiang Ming.
Rumors also say that Master Jiang has given up hope and has never contacted Shen Yao again.
Her mind, which had been at ease, began to stir again, and she finally made up her mind to come to Chongcheng to find Jiang Ming.
She wanted to boldly confess her feelings and give herself a chance.
But now, seeing the walls covered with portraits of Shen Xianzi, she finally understood how deep Jiang Ming's feelings for Shen Yao were.
Mu Ling'er stood dumbfounded at the door. Shen Yao forced a smile, went over and pulled her in, saying calmly, "Master's wife, please come in quickly."
Mu Ling'er was startled, her face flushed red, and she scolded in a low voice, "You little brat, it's still early, don't call me that."
Their conversation was clearly heard by the two immortal lords inside the room.
Wang Xu's mind went blank. What was going on? Mu Ling'er had actually come to his door!
Jiang Ming was completely unaware of the inside story; Wang Xu had been communicating with Mu Ling'er all these years without telling him anything.
He craned his neck to look at the doorway to the inner room, wanting to know who Shen Yao's master's wife was and what had she done to offend her.
Mu Ling'er was very shy and lingered in the outer hall, too embarrassed to go in.
Wang Xu stood rooted to the spot, not daring to utter a sound. This trouble was caused by him, and he had a premonition that he himself was about to face a great calamity.
The repairman outside hadn't come in for a while, so Jiang Ming asked, "Yaoyao, who's here?"
Mu Ling'er looked at Shen Yao in confusion: "Aren't you called Yanzhou?"
Shen Yao wanted to know what the relationship was between Mu Ling'er and Jiang Ming, so she decided to keep up the act: "My name is Yan Zhou."
Mu Ling'er wanted to ask why Jiang Ming called her Yao Yao.
Before she could ask, Shen Yao pulled her into the inner room.
Wang Xu dared not utter a sound.
Seeing that the visitor was Mu Ling'er, Jiang Ming was puzzled: "Why are you here?"
To Shen Yao, it was clear that they were indeed very familiar with each other.
Mu Ling'er was very shy, and first gave a proper bow: "Greetings, Hall Master Jiang, greetings, Wang Xianfan."
Oh, you're not calling me Brother Jiang Ming anymore.
He was well-behaved, dignified, and elegant, a stark contrast to his fierce demeanor towards Shen Yao at the gate.
Indeed, love makes even the brave timid.
Shen Yao silently took out the bedside table and placed it in front of Jiang Ming. She then took the food box from Wang Xu's hand, took out the food, and arranged it on the table.
Then he asked Mu Ling'er, "Has Master's wife eaten yet?"
Wang Xu roughly guessed the reason, his head was buzzing, and his legs inexplicably felt weak.
Mu Ling'er blushed even more. She twisted her fingers, lowered her head, and said shyly, "I've already eaten. You can just call me Ling'er."
Jiang Ming was truly baffled. How could Mu Ling'er be Shen Yao's master's wife? She had absolutely no connection with Zong Changheng.
Just as he was about to ask Shen Yao, Mu Ling'er stepped forward to offer her concern: "Hall Master Jiang, you're so badly injured, does it hurt?"
Shen Yao turned her back, rolled her eyes, and silently mimicked: "You're so badly injured, does it hurt?"
Because he couldn't figure out the relationship between Mu Ling'er and Shen Yao, Jiang Ming was very polite to her: "It's alright, thank you for your concern."
Mu Ling'er's face lit up with joy; Jiang Ming was indeed treating her differently.
She still has hope!
She suddenly felt bold, picked up the serving chopsticks on the table, and diligently served food to Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming was puzzled and found it very strange.
He held the bowl with a frown, eating whatever Mu Ling'er picked up for him.
Today's food was particularly strange, and the taste was really mediocre.
Looking at their polite and respectful manner, Shen Yao felt a sour feeling rise from her spleen to her throat.
Very well, she's definitely going to be jealous today!
