Warm Evening (Part 1)
"There will be a chance, I'll think of something for you …" Lin Yi said.
"Haha, alright, I'll be waiting then." Boss Bai didn't take it seriously. After all, although Han Jingjing's injuries were serious today, Boss Bai thought that it was just Little Eleven's torture, and her meridians weren't broken, so Lin Yi healed her. Maybe it was because of the Little Huan Pellet and some miraculous Jinchuang. He didn't think too deeply about it.
"It's getting late, I'll be heading back then." Lin Yi said, "Zhang Liju's notes as a refiner, I'll have Jing Jing send it to your email."
"Alright, there's no rush." Boss Bai said, "She needs to recover first, it's fine if she doesn't come to school these few days, I'll give her some time off."
Lin Yi nodded- he knew Han Jingjing's situation the best, and it could be said that she was fine now. However, he didn't want to brag, so he just nodded and left.
He came to the living room downstairs, and Guan Xin and Master's wife were watching TV, waiting for Lin Yi and Boss Bai to come downstairs. Both of them stood up upon seeing them.
"Yi, you're leaving?" Master's wife asked with a smile.
"Yeah, Master's wife, I'll be leaving first, I'll come visit another day!" Lin Yi said.
"Xin Xin, you see Lin Yi off," Boss Bai said to Guan Xin.
"Okay!" Guan Xin was overjoyed and nodded excitedly, quickly running to Lin Yi's side.
"Haha …" Boss Bai smiled faintly. He was afraid that Lin Yi and Guan Xin wouldn't get along, after all, the thing he hated the most in his life was disharmony between his disciples. It was like that between him and Xuanchen, so he cared even more when it came to his disciple. It seemed like there wouldn't be any problems between Lin Yi and Guan Xin, and this made Boss Bai very happy.
After leaving the villa with Lin Yi, Guan Xin let out a sigh of relief, "You …"
"You …" Unexpectedly, Lin Yi also spoke in unison. Lin Yi smiled and said, "You go first."
"I … What did I want to say?" Guan Xin was a little nervous. She hadn't seen Lin Yi in a while, so she wasn't as casual as before.
"Then I'll go first. I really didn't expect that you would become Bai laoshi's disciple and learn alchemy!" Lin Yi said, "I thought that you were studying medicine!"
"I'm surprised too. I thought I wouldn't be able to help you with alchemy, but it seems like you're studying alchemy as well …" Guan Xin suddenly thought of the girl called Jing Jing. She was also an alchemist, and a second level one at that. Did that mean that Lin Yi didn't value her that much?
Lin Yi paused when he saw the change in Guan Xin's expression. "What's wrong? Why aren't you talking? "
"Nope, I think I need to work harder. I'm only a first level alchemist right now, I probably won't be able to help you …" Guan Xin said self-deprecatingly. She felt that she was pretty useless.
"First level alchemist and second level alchemist aren't that important. As long as you're willing, I can make you a second level alchemist anytime!" Lin Yi said.
"Ah? A second level alchemist has to be at least a mystic class cultivator, right? I'm only a golden class, I'm still far from it. That's why I keep failing when I try to make second level pills! "Guan Xin was a little confused by Lin Yi's words.
"Peak late phase golden class?" Lin Yi nodded as he looked at Guan Xin's strength. "You're just one step away from mystic class. You'll be able to break through after eating a small qi gathering pill."
"You can see my strength?" Guan Xin was a little surprised, but she didn't think much about it. She thought that Boss Bai had told Lin Yi about it. What she cared about was Lin Yi's following words. "Ah, I remember now. You have a second level alchemist with you. Indeed, if he could make some small qi gathering pills for me to eat, it wouldn't be impossible for me to become an earth class early phase cultivator. Then, with a second level cauldron, I'd be able to make second level pills."
"That's true." Lin Yi nodded and smiled. "But, there's no need to go through all that trouble. Give me your hand!"
"Hm?" Guan Xin paused, her face blushing. Did Lin Yi want to hold her hand? Guan Xin's heart sped up at the thought, and her palms started to sweat. But she still reached out her hand in happiness and nervousness, waiting for Lin Yi to hold it.
This was a scene she'd been looking forward to for a long time. She didn't think that they'd meet again after such a long time. This heartbeat, this moment of happiness, made Guan Xin feel that all the hardships she'd suffered these past few days were worth it. Her separation from Lin Yi was for a better reunion.
Lin Yi was a little surprised to see Guan Xin's expression, but he quickly understood that Guan Xin had misunderstood! Lin Yi had a good impression of Guan Xin, but there was still Wang Xinyan's matter to be settled. Plus, it'd been a long time since they last met, and it was too sudden for Lin Yi to think too much about it.
But Guan Xin had misunderstood, and Lin Yi didn't have the heart to crush her confidence. He could only hold Guan Xin's hand first.
Feeling Guan Xin's nervousness, Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat as well. The feelings he'd been suppressing in his heart surged up in this cold, yet warm night. Lin Yi held Guan Xin's hand tightly.
Some things had to be faced, and some people couldn't be let go.
Lin Yi didn't know what his future would be like, and he didn't know if the road ahead would be dangerous or stable. But, along the way, there were bound to be some unforgettable companions … At this moment, Lin Yi thought through many things.
Although there was still a huge gap between him and the Five Elements Sect, Lin Yi wouldn't run away anymore.
He thought of a girl he couldn't forget. He thought of the past. How was Xiao Ning?
Lin Yi was a little emotional. He never would've thought that one day, his strength could make all the hidden houses, including the hidden House Yu, not dare to act rashly. Even three hidden houses had become his underlings!
The leap in their strength made it so that the gap between them was no longer as insurmountable as he had imagined. But many years later, things remained the same, but people changed.
Although Yu Bing had told Lin Yi some information about Yu Ning, he didn't know what the situation would be like when they met again.
Would he bring her disappointment when he ran away? How good would it be if life was like the first time they met? But how could the Lin Yi from back then have predicted the height he was at now? The level of the hidden houses couldn't threaten Lin Yi anymore.
