EBE Chapter 267 More Than Friendship, Less Than Lovers
Chapter 267 More Than Friendship, Less Than Lovers
Le Ying interrupted Nan Haotian forcefully, leaving Nan Haotian sitting there helplessly, watching Le Ying leave.
He looked up at the sky, wondering to himself if his decision was too selfish and hadn't taken Si Nansheng's feelings into account.
"In a bad mood?" Li Tianhen looked at Si Nansheng, whose face was dark. Si Nansheng pouted and didn't say anything.
"Sigh, my little apprentice has grown up and doesn't want to talk to his master about anything anymore." Li Tianhen sighed, and Si Nansheng and Shang Ming both turned to look at his melancholy expression.
“Master, you really don’t suit that expression.” Si Nansheng sighed. “The Holy Lord wants me to stay in the Holy Domain.”
Si Nansheng hadn't intended to say these things, but he couldn't resist the question coming from Li Tianhen!
Upon hearing this, both Li Tianhen and Shang Ming's expressions turned cold.
The Holy Land wants to steal people from them!
“I refused,” Si Nansheng said again, which eased their expressions.
"What if they try to force you to stay?" Shang Ming asked, somewhat worried.
"Then let them try, unless they find life in the Holy Land too comfortable." A cold smile curled at the corner of Li Tianhen's lips.
“Master…” Si Nansheng looked up at Li Tianhen.
"It is an honor for my apprentices to stay if they wish, but no one can force them to if they do not!"
Li Tianhen's words brought a bright smile to Si Nansheng's face. Nan Qingge, who was about to come and find Si Nansheng, was even more determined not to let her parents influence Si Nansheng's decision when she saw her smile.
If we force her to stay here, she may never smile like that again.
"They're looking for you." Shang Ming looked up at Nan Qingge and the others and spoke to Si Nansheng.
"Go ahead, don't let yourself be wronged. My disciple is someone I can bully as long as I can." Li Tianhen rubbed Si Nansheng's head, and Si Nansheng nodded to go find Nan Qingge.
Shang Ming looked at Li Tianhen with disdain, but Li Tianhen didn't notice his gaze.
"What are you looking at?" Li Tianhen raised an eyebrow.
"It's fine if you bully your other disciples, but do you dare to bully your sister? Aren't you afraid those disciples will rebel?" After saying that, Shang Ming turned and left.
Li Tianhen touched his chest: That hurts!
Since he took on this young apprentice, his status among his apprentices has been declining.
"You brat, you've got some nerve, haven't you?" Li Tianhen glanced in the direction Shang Ming had left, muttered something, then lay down on the ground and took out a storybook to read.
Si Nansheng stood in front of Nan Qingge without saying a word, and Nan Qingge didn't know what to say for a moment.
Tang Tingfeng patted Si Nansheng on the shoulder: "She won't stop you from leaving. Have a good talk with her."
Then, Tang Tingfeng looked at Nan Qingge and said, "I'll wait for you over there."
"I'm sorry." Nan Qingge's first words to Si Nansheng were an apology, which surprised Si Nansheng.
"I originally wanted them to say goodbye to you properly, but I didn't expect them to want you to stay in the Holy Land."
But don't worry about what they think. I'll talk to them nicely, and they won't interfere with your decision.
If you're really angry, I support you ignoring them, but you can't talk to me!
Nan Qingge smiled gently at Si Nansheng, and Si Nansheng nodded.
Actually, she wasn't really angry; it was just that Nan Haotian's attitude in asking her to stay made her a little uncomfortable.
Ultimately, they are blood relatives, and Si Nansheng could not possibly disown them.
"Sister Qingge, am I going to have to start calling Senior Brother Tang 'brother-in-law' soon?" Si Nansheng suddenly asked, and Nan Qingge's expression froze.
Weren't they talking about Si Nansheng leaving? How did they suddenly switch to that topic?
"Isn't that right?" Si Nansheng looked at her innocently.
"I...I don't know either." Nan Qingge hesitated for a moment, but still revealed her thoughts.
Although her relationship with Tang Tingfeng was very close, it seemed like something was missing; it was like a relationship that was more than friendship but less than lovers.
"Senior Brother Tang has a rather aloof personality, but since he is close to you, it means he has feelings for you."
However, he might be a bit slow on the uptake when it comes to relationships. It might take Qingge to express her feelings first before he understands.
Think about how Tang Tingfeng avoided Liu Xuewei like the plague.
Then think about how relaxed he was when he was facing Nan Qingge, even though they were very close.
Doesn't this mean that he also approves of Nan Qingge?
"I know, you're still a child, so don't worry about these things. You'll stunt your growth." Nan Qingge ruffled Si Nansheng's hair.
"Sister Qingge, your words can be hurtful." Si Nansheng rolled her eyes helplessly, while Nan Qingge smiled gently.
Nan Haotian and Le Ying thought about it for a long time and also felt that suddenly leaving Si Nansheng in the Holy Domain for protection was not what Si Nansheng wanted. Therefore, they let Si Nansheng make the decision himself.
Should they stay in the Holy Domain, or leave with Li Tianhen and the others?
Si Nansheng's choice was naturally to leave, because she had many other things to do.
On the day Si Nansheng's identity was announced, Nan Haotian and Le Ying were entertaining guests outside, while Nan Qingge and Jiang Qiao were helping Si Nansheng change her clothes.
“Your clothes…” Jiang Qiao raised an eyebrow slightly as she looked at Si Nansheng and Bai Ye’s clothes.
“This is the sect uniform of the Four Gods Sect. If Sheng Sheng likes it, then she can wear this.” Nan Qingge smiled at Si Nansheng. Jiang Qiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled as well.
"Oh, I'm so envious of you having such a cute little sister, Sheng Sheng. How about we talk? From now on, you can be my little sister too, okay?"
Jiang Qiao moved closer to Si Nansheng and hugged her tightly. Si Nansheng tried to break free, but couldn't.
Jiang Qiao is Nan Qingge's friend, and she can't use violence. What if Jiang Qiao gets hurt?
In the end, Si Nansheng could only be held by Jiang Qiao, feeling utterly hopeless, waiting for someone else to rescue her.
"I remember you have a younger brother, right? Then don't try to take my sister away from me." Nan Qingge stepped forward and rescued Si Nansheng.
"Of course a younger brother isn't as cute as a younger sister! My younger brother is quite the troublemaker, and besides, don't you have a younger brother too?"
Jiang Qiao pouted, looking aggrieved. Nan Qingge didn't say anything, but just smiled and helped Si Nansheng straighten his clothes.
"Sheng Sheng, if some people say unpleasant things, just pretend you didn't hear them and leave it to us." Nan Qingge looked at Si Nansheng gently.
"No need, Sister Qingge, just don't get too close to me today." Si Nansheng smiled at her.
"Why?" Nan Qingge and Jiang Qiao asked, puzzled.
"Because there's going to be some excitement." Si Nansheng said with a mysterious smile.
Nan Qingge tilted her head in confusion, then suddenly remembered the incident where someone impersonated Si Nansheng, and immediately understood what Si Nansheng was up to.
"I know, be careful." Nan Qingge patted Si Nansheng's head.
"What's all the commotion? What's all the commotion? Count me in!" Jiang Qiao was anxiously pacing around, not knowing what the commotion was about to start.
"You'll see when you see it." Nan Qingge didn't intend to tell Jiang Qiao directly, otherwise, it wouldn't be interesting!
