Food Fairy Lord

Chapter 537 Mind
Pei Ye looked at the face in front of him cautiously.

Even in Fenghuai City when he was young, there was only one girl who ran after him when he was a child, but when he grew up a little, there was no one left.

This strange feeling is really a bit distant. For a long time, the boy has been accustomed to the fact that the whole world is a stranger. Especially after coming to Shenjing, his only connection with his hometown has become so weak that it is almost non-existent.

It's not that his friends would treat him as an outsider. Even Lord Di and Miss Xie, whom he had just met, were trustworthy partners. Although Yan Feiqing didn't say much, he did not refuse such a dangerous battle. Miss Zhangsun and Miss Cui were both preciously sincere... Not to mention Master Xu. Although he always had a cold tone, he had no dissatisfaction with the chaos he caused in Shaolong. He poured almost all his own resources into him without hesitation and rescued him in the fastest and safest way within three days. Even then, he had a smooth journey in Shenjing. Behind the scenes, he had silently paved everything.

Just by looking at the situation of Li Yuxi, who had such amazing poetic talent, one can tell that he had unknowingly crossed many thresholds that were unattainable for others.

Li Yuxi's statement that he was trying to get close to Miss Cui was nonsense, but if you said that he was trying to get close to Master Xu, then he would probably have to pretend he didn't hear it.

But this doesn’t actually affect the way a teenager treats the world, that is, before everything begins... you must face everything with vigilance, because every relationship with anyone starts from "zero".

Even if you have established a friendship, you still have to be wary of changes in the world and spend energy to manage it...The subtleties of it are actually difficult to explain to others.

Because most people enjoy a luxury that teenagers don't have - that there are always some people in the world with whom you have a fixed value. You may be able to do something unpleasant to offset it, but it is often impossible to erase it.

The boy had always been quite sensitive, so at this moment he immediately felt this subtle and unfamiliar sense of "security" or "burden", and was actually a little nervous and uneasy for a moment.

If he hadn't known Master Xu, Master Xu wouldn't have been angry about his betrayal.

If he hadn't known Miss Ming, she wouldn't have worried about his safety.

In fact, if he didn't know Piao Qing, Piao Qing wouldn't care what a man named "Pei Ye" did.

But he and the girl in front of him had never met or known each other, and she would be excited, disappointed, or sad because of what the name "Pei Ye" did.

Because he is the "worldly brother".

It is a blessing to hold power that is not lived up to. There should always be at least one other person in the world who will feel sad for him. Now Pei Ye knows that even if he has never left Fenghuai and lived in seclusion in the mountains, he is not actually alone. There will be people from afar who will come to see him because they care about him.

Of course it is a precious emotion.

Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help laughing twice. To outsiders, he stared at the girl's face for three full breaths before grinning foolishly. Cui Zhaoye coughed lightly and said, "Young Master Pei, it seems that Jiang Zhenchuan is also a sword student of the Sword Academy this year. It happens that you can take her to report to the Sword Academy at dawn."

"Oh, no problem." Pei Ye was a little cautious. Although he couldn't be cold, he was also afraid of appearing too enthusiastic.

Jiang Yin'er was very polite when she saluted, and her expression was very serious when she spoke, but she was also a little unfamiliar and nervous: "Thank you, Brother Shi."

The night sky was indeed getting darker, and the stars were gradually fading. The few people left Xunfang Garden. Pei Ye and Li Zhaoxie walked through the hall to take over the head and tail, and took the kitten back.

The matter involved the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, whose power and position were of course far beyond the scope of Jingzhao Prefecture. The newly appointed Lord Di was only a third-rank official. In other words, what they found was not a mastermind behind the scenes, but the entire sky curtain. Why did the Transportation Department know nothing about anything, and why did the Sixteen Guards refuse the transfer order from Jingzhao Prefecture... They were all in the Southern Court.

The case has probably reached a dead end at this point, or it has jumped to another level that is beyond the reach of "investigating the case."

Naturally, he still had to ask the woman on the top floor of the small building about how to proceed in the next game, but now the Jingzhao Prefecture would report to her, so Pei Ye didn't care. He said goodbye to the two of them and turned back to the warm carriage.

Then I saw that Jiang Yin'er was the only one there.

He sat upright on the couch with his back straight, his bag and sword on his knees.

Pei Ye found that the girl had very nice manners, but she was not the type who followed strict etiquette. It was just that her body shape, which had been cultivated through Taoist meditation and exercise since childhood, was actually quite casual and natural.

But at this time, he glanced around twice: "...Where are the two of them?"

"Miss Cui said it was not on the way, so she lent us the carriage first. She and Mr. Li went to talk somewhere else." Jiang Yin'er hesitated for a moment, looking at him with her almond eyes, "I... declined, but she said it was Brother Shi who wanted it." "...Oh, okay."

"Wouldn't that be impolite?"

"It's okay, Miss Cui is not fussy about trivial matters. We are all good friends."

"Oh." Jiang Yin'er looked thoughtful and said nothing more.

The carriages and horses moved forward, and the streets of Shenjing were quiet even in the sleepy state. The girl sitting quietly by the window really looked like an orchid or a young crane. Pei Ye tilted his head to look at her from time to time, opened his mouth and closed it again, thinking that this girl was really elegant, clean, and beautiful... Turning his head, he met the kitten's narrowed green eyes.

"……what?"

"Didn't I just leave you for an hour?" Black Cat asked seriously, "Or is it that one day outside the building is one year inside?"

“…Is that even possible?”

"No, you've never peeked at anyone like this before. The last time was with Li Piaoqing." Black Cat said seriously, "You're not going to start twisting like a maggot on the bed again, are you? Pei Ye, you and I still have a great cause to accomplish..."

Pei Ye pinched its face.

"..."

"..."

"Black Kitten, I warn you solemnly, he is the true disciple of the Master of Shenxiao Dao, and he came all the way to Shenjing to call me 'Brother'." Pei Ye pursed his lips, "He is one year younger than me."

The black cat rolled his green eyes slightly.

"I want to show a good image. Don't mess me up. Got it?" Pei Ye lowered his head sternly.

"understood."

"...Brother Shi." Jiang Yin'er suddenly said in a low voice.

"Hmm?" Pei Ye turned back with a smile and gently rubbed the kitten's ears with his hands.

"Actually..." The girl seemed to have a rare look of embarrassment on her face, but she still said seriously, "Brother Shi's image already makes me admire him. Just now, he drew his sword at the Huanlou Banquet, and he was a swordsman with a heart of chivalry. He was decisive and responsible... He is the best man I have ever seen."

"..." Pei Ye froze.

"..." The black cat froze.

"Well... I was born with [mind's eye], if someone is close and thinks of me without hiding anything... I will hear it." Jiang Yin'er whispered, "Master told me that this secret must not be told to others... Please keep it secret, brother Shi."

"Fuck! There is such a thing."

"Use the [Que Shou] first."

Jiang Yin'er lowered her head and tapped lightly on the hilt of the sword, pretending not to hear the two voices.
