39. The Beautiful Sect Master is Angry!
Yan Zhen tried hard to think but still couldn’t remember, feeling a little uneasy.
He moved, trying to get up, but it woke up Instructor Yu Xuan, who was sleeping lightly.
The beauty who was sleeping like a begonia in spring slowly opened her eyes. Seeing Yan Zhen staring at her blankly, her pretty face carried the laziness of just waking up. She asked softly, “You’re awake, Yan Zhen. Does your head still hurt?”
Yan Zhen stared at her with his clear, watery eyes. “It’s much better now.”
“Really? That’s great. You almost scared me to death this morning.”
Instructor Yu Xuan seemed to be still frightened. Her slender hand stroked Yan Zhen’s cheek, her thumb gently sliding. Her sapphire-like beautiful eyes were full of tenderness.
“It’s good that you’re okay.” She murmured, and in the end, she smiled lightly. Her smile was infinitely gentle, like a friendly girl next door or a kind auntie from the neighborhood, the kind that could easily stir the heartstrings of a pure-hearted boy.
Fortunately, Yan Zhen had experienced the daily baptism of the beautiful sect master, so he had developed a strong resistance to this. He was only slightly moved.
“Sorry for worrying you, Instructor… Did the instructor stay here to take care of me the whole time?”
“Mm, eh?” Instructor Yu Xuan probably finally came to her senses. Her long eyelashes fluttered like the flapping of butterfly wings. She looked at Yan Zhen’s face that was close at hand, then at her legs that were still wedged between his knees. Her jade-like face instantly turned red like she had applied too much rouge.
She suddenly tensed up her slender and plump body and explained incoherently, “Yan Zhen, don’t misunderstand. I didn’t do it on purpose. It’s because, it’s just that…”
It was the first time Yan Zhen had seen Instructor Yu Xuan in such a flustered state, like a little girl who had made a mistake and felt guilty. It was quite adorable.
He definitely couldn’t laugh in this situation, right? But Yan Zhen really found it hard to hold back his smile.
“Instructor, why don’t you calm down first?”
Instructor Yu Xuan saw his half-smiling expression. She covered her burning cheeks with both hands and said somewhat self-abandonedly, “It was you who said you wanted me to hug you to sleep, so that’s why I held you like this and laid down on the bed.”
It was true, but why would I… Yan Zhen felt a bit embarrassed and smiled slightly, “I thought so. Thank you, Instructor.”
Instructor Yu Xuan’s heart beat a few times faster, and her mood also brightened up involuntarily, as if her body and mind were both easily swayed by Yan Zhen.
— Don’t smile at the instructor like that, you little rascal who loves to provoke people.
She turned her face away, put on her shoes, and got out of bed. Her movements were so fast, as if her bottom had been scalded.
“Since you’re okay now, I’ll be going.”
“Okay.”
Growl.
Yan Zhen’s stomach suddenly made a loud sound, like a hungry beast roaring to the sky after waking up.
Instructor Yu Xuan paused her steps and looked back at his troubled expression as he rubbed his belly. She instantly felt like she had regained the upper hand and said with some amusement, “I’ll go to the kitchen to cook. Yan Zhen, why don’t you take a bath first? There should be food ready by the time you’re done washing.”
With that, she left Yan Zhen’s room with light and cheerful steps.
Yan Zhen patted his cheeks and sat up, feeling like there was still something important he hadn’t done, but his mind was still dizzy, and he couldn’t remember it for a moment.
Might as well not bother.
He took clean clothes from the wardrobe and dragged his heavy steps to the bathroom.
After rinsing under the faucet, Yan Zhen stepped into the bathtub and immersed his body in the hot water.
“Phew—” Yan Zhen let out a long sigh, as if trying to expel all the fatigue from his brain.
At this moment, the crystal pendant on his neck suddenly turned hot, and a summoning intention from the beautiful sect master was transmitted into his mind.
Yan Zhen finally realized what he had forgotten to do: he didn’t explain to the beautiful sect master why he didn’t go back last night to receive her head massage.
“I have a feeling I’m going to get scolded.”
Yan Zhen was no longer in the mood to soak in the bath. He planned to go back to his room immediately to admit his mistake.
He was about to get up from the water when he felt a warmth in his palm. The Star Shifting Fire Seal activated on its own, generating secret power and sucking him into the crystal space.
“Oh no, the beautiful sect master is angry!”
With a splash, Yan Zhen fell onto the stone bed in the central altar with his wet naked body. His head happened to hit a pair of beautifully curved legs.
His chin was resting on the white, soft, and plump leg flesh. It didn’t hurt at all, but instead felt very comfortable.
Yan Zhen raised his head. His gaze followed the black silk nightgown upward, passing the G-peaks that could be considered transcendent existences, until it met the beautiful sect master’s gaze. He couldn’t help but swallow.
“Sect Master…”
Chen Xi’s face was expressionless. She calmly looked at her disciple who was lying on her lap and said lightly, “Zhen’er, where did you go? Your master has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Yan Zhen tried his best to act cute and obedient. “Sect Master, I was wrong.”
“What’s wrong?”
Chen Xi flicked her finger, and profound power fell on Yan Zhen’s wet body, evaporating all the water droplets on his body.
His body became dry. Yan Zhen said without hesitation, “I shouldn’t have stood you up without a word, Sect Master, and let down your kind intentions.”
Chen Xi’s expression didn’t change. Her five fingers gently stroked Yan Zhen’s head, combing his smooth hair like treating a little pet.
“Then why didn’t you come back, Zhen’er?”
“Because, because it was too late after eating the late-night snack. I didn’t want to disturb Sect Master’s rest. Moreover, the symptoms weren’t so obvious this time, so I planned to try to endure it. I didn’t expect that I couldn’t endure it, so I slept for a day.”
Yan Zhen confessed everything, hoping that the beautiful sect master could be lenient.
Chen Xi grabbed Yan Zhen’s shoulders and used a little force to turn him over.
“Sect, Sect Master?”
Yan Zhen was very embarrassed, his face flushed red. After all, he wasn’t wearing clothes now. It was fine to lie face down, but if he was lying face up, the long-nosed little elephant wouldn’t be able to hide.
Yan Zhen immediately joined the crotch-covering faction, but he saw the beautiful sect master grab the blanket beside him and cover his body.
“Are you sure you slept for a day? Logically speaking, Zhen’er, you should have been woken up by the pain in the morning.”
Chen Xi said while starting to massage Yan Zhen’s temples. Obviously, she was well aware of his condition.
As the beautiful sect master’s five fingers lightly pressed and heavily kneaded, the dizziness and pain in his head that were like a hangover immediately improved significantly, like biting into a cold watermelon on a hot day. The coolness rushed through his entire body, making him slowly relax.
Yan Zhen lightly exhaled and secretly glanced at the beautiful sect master. Seeing that her face was still expressionless instead of her usual silent smile, he didn’t dare to let his guard down. He said even more obediently than a puppy, “Reporting to Sect Master, this disciple woke up for a while in the morning due to the pain, but fell asleep again very quickly.”
— Little slick, he even referred to himself as a disciple.
The corner of Chen Xi’s mouth curved up into an imperceptible arc.
“Since you woke up from the pain, why didn’t you come to find your master?”
“Hehe, I didn’t think of it at the time.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Zhen’s ear was pinched by the beautiful sect master. Her delicate fingertips rubbed back and forth on his earlobe. It was a bit itchy, but it seemed like she could pinch it off at any time.
— Oh my God, wrong answer!
A drop of cold sweat appeared on Yan Zhen’s forehead. He quickly understood:
Not thinking of the beautiful sect master first meant that he didn’t put her in the first place in his heart, which was a failure as a disciple!
But the beautiful sect master hadn’t punished him yet, which meant he still had a chance to answer again.
— Come on, my brain, start spinning!
