After becoming a Taoist partner with my senior sister, my master changed

Chapter 172 Two Women Leave

"What do you mean? Does Qin Lang have many Taoist companions?" Qing Shu frowned slightly and stared at Lin Chuan meaningfully.

"..."

Knowing that he couldn't escape today, Lin Chuan nodded helplessly.

"I wonder what your name is, sister? I am Qin Lang's Taoist partner and senior sister. If you don't mind, you can call me Sister Qingshu."

Qingshu withdrew her gaze, was silent for a moment, and then smiled faintly at Jiang Wanying.

"But really?"

Jiang Wanying's voice trembled slightly, and her delicate lower lip was tightly bitten by her pearly teeth, as if only with such force could she barely control her sadness. Tears flickered faintly in her beautiful eyes as she stared at Lin Chuan, as if demanding an answer from him, or silently accusing him of something.

"Yeah." Lin Chuan nodded weakly. Just as he was about to say something, another figure rushed in.

"Ying'er, listen to your master..."

The voice suddenly stopped. Xu Hanyi's steps stopped instantly, and his eyes turned cold and stared straight at Qing Shu who was sitting beside the bed.

"It's you again." Xu Hanyi spoke coldly, with frosty sword intent surging wildly around him.

"It seems like Qin Lang hides his sisters very well on weekdays."

Qing Shu curled her lips slightly and ignored Xu Hanyi who suddenly broke in. She just looked at Lin Chuan with a resentful look on his face. There seemed to be a hint of jealousy in her tone, and it seemed as if she was hiding a lot of helplessness.

"Uh……"

"Would you...would you like to sit down and listen to my...explanation?" Lin Chuan opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice revealing an obvious lack of confidence.

"You can do whatever you want. I'll wait for you to find me."

Qing Shu spoke softly, her words full of helplessness, and then she turned into a stream of light and rushed away into the distance.

A complicated look flashed across Xu Hanyi's narrow eyes. He looked deeply at Lin Chuan who was standing there and Jiang Wanying with red eyes. His eyes seemed to be filled with blame and heartache.

Then, she swung her sleeves violently, tightly gripped the sword in her hand, and chased in the direction of Qing Shu's departure like a sharp gust of wind. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared from everyone's sight.

The guest room, which had been a little crowded and filled with a tense atmosphere just now, suddenly became deserted. Only the cautious breathing of Lin Chuan and a faint sob could be heard.

"Sister, I..."

Looking at Jiang Wanying in front of him, her eyes were red and her originally lively eyes were now covered with a layer of sad mist. Tears were rolling in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to fall. She just lowered her head and remained silent. Lin Chuan felt as if his heart was being pulled hard, and his face was full of guilt.

"I hate you!"

Jiang Wanying bit her lip, her voice choking with sobs. As she finished speaking, she turned abruptly, tears finally welling up in her red eyes, trickling down her cheeks. She rushed out the door, transforming into a streak of light, and vanished from Lin Chuan's sight in the blink of an eye.

"Senior Sister!" Seeing this, Lin Chuan became anxious and immediately chased in the direction Jiang Wanying left. However, he was only at the peak of the foundation building stage and seemed unable to catch up at all.

……

riverside.

Qing Shu stood there quietly, a gentle breeze blowing through her hair, carrying a few strands of her hair through the air. She was slightly bent over, her hands behind her back, staring at the fish swimming happily in the river with great interest.

"What is your purpose in pestering Chuan'er?"

A cold voice as if wrapped in frost suddenly sounded behind Qingshu. The fish that were originally swimming happily in the river suddenly seemed to sense the breath of danger and became panic-stricken in an instant.

They waved their tails and fled everywhere, splashing the originally calm river surface. After a while, the fish disappeared without a trace, leaving only circles of ripples slowly rippling on the water.

"You really are like one."

"The look, the tone, the attitude."

Qingshu slowly turned around and looked at Xu Hanyi with a complicated emotion in her eyes, as if she was lost in long-lost memories. She murmured to herself, her voice very soft, but with an unquestionable certainty.

"But you're better than her. You wouldn't keep your thoughts to yourself. If I'm not mistaken, you're not only Qin Lang's master, but also his Taoist partner, right?"

Qing Shu raised her eyebrows slightly, a hint of meaning curling up at the corner of her mouth, and looked directly at the other person. Her voice was full of a special kind of clarity, as if she had already seen through everything.

"Qin Lang..."

Xu Hanyi recalled the somewhat bizarre dream he had before. In the dream, Qingshu did have a lover named Qin Lang, and it seemed that Qin Lang's master also liked him, but she had always kept her feelings buried deep in her heart and never revealed them until her death.

Influenced by the dream, Xu Hanyi didn't want to end up like Master Qin Lang, so he expressed his feelings to Lin Chuan regardless of everything.

"Chuan'er is Chuan'er, not the Qin Lang you are looking for."

Xu Hanyi took a deep breath, suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and spoke to Qingshu in a cold voice.

"He is Qin Lang. I met him earlier than you did. I am his first Taoist partner. You all came later."

"Qin Lang is very outstanding and looks very likable. Because of my health problems, I have been sleeping for many years. It is inevitable that there are some beautiful women around him. I don't blame him, and I don't blame you either."

"I know you can't accept it for a while, and you all want to monopolize Qin Lang, because I think so too."

"But I won't show it as obviously as you guys. I hope Qin Lang is happy more than my own feelings."

……

Qingshu sat quietly by the river, with her back to Xu Hanyi, and whispered these words from her heart. The breeze blew, gently ruffling her hair, but it could not blow away the deep affection in her words.

"What if I insist on having him all to myself?"

Xu Hanyi's voice suddenly grew colder, revealing a sense of determination and toughness, her words carrying an unquestionable tone. She narrowed her eyes slightly, a cold glint flashing in her gaze as she stared intently at Qingshu's back.

"The girl in the room just now is also your apprentice, right?"

Qing Shu did not have too much emotion because of Xu Hanyi's tough words. She still sat quietly by the river, just tilted her head slightly, and asked in a flat tone but seemed to contain a mystery.

"Ying'er..."

Xu Hanyi whispered softly, her voice filled with complex emotions: love, pity, and a hint of unspeakable guilt. Thinking of that red-eyed, aggrieved look, her heart felt like it was being pricked by a sharp needle, stinging slightly.
