"I've tried using the Plum Blossom Divination Technique to look for clues, but it needs time and isn't so easy," Yu Longting said, clearly thinking I had eaten too little, and personally fed me a skewer, "Lin Qianshan taking Lin Xintang away definitely has another purpose and plan. Within three days, we should be able to see his next move."
My heart tightened, and I bit haphazardly into the skewer in his hand, "Let's go back to the Lin Family. Grandpa mentioned he would ask Qing Li about Lin Xintang's background, maybe we can find some clues there to deal with Lin Qianshan's schemes."
"Anyway, you're determined to meddle in the Lin Family's affairs, once we've finished eating, your husband will accompany you," Yu Longting indulged in anything I wanted, peeling a small shrimp and placing it in my bowl.
I knew that if I ate too little, it wouldn't be good for Dumpling.
Yu Longting wouldn't let that pass either.
For the time being, setting aside my worries, I picked up my chopsticks and started eating and drinking with gusto.
Suddenly, a pure white Jade Tablet attacked from the void.
I thought it was a UFO, or perhaps a hidden weapon!
Just as I was about to dodge,
I saw Yu Longting remove the disposable glove from his hand.
He stretched out his slender hand, and the Jade Tablet landed in his palm.
Afterwards, his expression became gravely serious.
I observed the text on the Jade Tablet, which was the rarely seen Qin Seal Script, "Is this Jade Tablet sent from your sect?"
"You understand the writing on it?" Yu Longting was quite surprised.
I shook my head, "I can't understand it, but there were rubbings of Qin Seal Script in high school textbooks. I figure if they are still using such an ancient script, it must be from a sect with a long history."
"Hmm, I underestimated this girl's intelligence before," Yu Longting stored the Jade Tablet in his sleeve.
Just like that, a sizable Jade Tablet disappeared.
It was only the sleeve of a shirt, yet he made it seem like Lord Lao's cosmic sleeve, encompassing everything. I stared at the cuff of his sleeve for a moment and said, "You can't go too far from me. You haven't been back to your sect for a long time, right? Even if there's nothing urgent from your sect, you should still visit."
"But I need to stay with you," Yu Longting glanced at me, a look on his face that said nothing else mattered as much as his wife.
I sat closer to him and nudged him with my body, "I'll go to the Lin Family by myself; I don't need your company. I'm not a three-year-old, and since the Lin Family's crisis is over, there probably won't be anything serious enough to require your intervention..."
"How can there not be? Old Man Lin intends to make you the Sect Master, and he's constantly trying to drive a wedge between us, hoping to separate us," Yu Longting said defensively, "What if he arranges a matchmaking for you with someone of similar background while I'm away?"
"Matchmaking? That can't be. Me, pregnant as I am, going to matchmaking? Someone would have to be willing to do that too,"
I found it particularly funny; Yu Longting really treated me as if I were in high demand. Seeing the seriousness and sternness in the depths of his eyes, I became serious, "Yu Longting, don't you know how I feel about you by now? Mountains may crumble, rivers may dry. Winter thunder shakes, summer rain and snow. Heaven and earth unite, I would dare to part with you only then. Nobody can shake my firm heart!!"
"Say it again," Yu Longting insisted, his gaze nearly piercing through me.
No wonder he reacted so...
In the past, it was mostly Yu Longting who took the initiative to speak sweet nothings; my personality is somewhat slow to warm up, so I rarely did it. But now, I feel like I have an endless supply of these words for him.
All of a sudden, I remembered, this guy used to make me call his name over and over.
At the time, too timid and bullied to the point of losing my voice from shouting,
With this lesson in mind, I picked up my phone, opened WeChat, held down the voice button and slowly repeated, "The words you want to hear, you can open and listen to them anytime you want from now on."
