But soon, Wu Lingyu's smile disappeared. Following that, his aura slowly turned cold and incomparably … bitter!
Ever since she opened the book, she hadn't raised her head even once!
She didn't even look at him …
He glared at her. Finally, a certain someone couldn't take it anymore. She looked up and said, "Aren't you hungry? Why are you staring at me instead of eating?"
Wu Lingyu regretted giving her this and wanted to snatch it back.
"You don't even look at me anymore," he complained. "Is it better looking or am I better looking?"
Sima Youyue could not help but roll her eyes. How could he compare himself to a book?
"It looks better than you," she answered honestly.
"Is it as good-looking as me?" Wu Lingyu's tone turned cold. She looked at the book as if she was looking at an enemy.
Sima Youyue glanced at him and kept the book in case he tore it.
"Are you still eating or not? If not, I'm going to pack up."
"Eat, why wouldn't I? I'm not full yet." Wu Lingyu saw her put away the book and continued to eat the porridge with satisfaction.
After finishing the porridge, he asked Sima Youyue to set up a tent for him and prepare a bed for him to rest on.
Sima Youyue wanted to say no, but seeing how weak he was, she went along with it.
Just treat him like a little kid like Little Tu!
He set up a tent, arranged a bed, and helped him up to rest. Then, he prepared to leave and continue reading his book.
However, a certain someone obviously didn't want her to leave. One moment, he wanted her to do this and the next moment, he wanted her to do that. He just wouldn't let her go.
In the end, she couldn't help but flip out. "Wu Lingyu, if you don't behave yourself, I'll leave you here and go back by myself!"
She had always thought that he was injured because of her, so she had always been patient with his requests. She didn't expect that this guy would open a dyehouse after giving him some face!
When Wu Lingyu saw that Sima Youyue was about to explode, she put away her little thoughts and said, "I won't ask you to do anything. Just read on the soft couch."
Sima Youyue rolled her eyes at him and sat down on the couch. She took out a book on array formations and started reading.
Wu Lingyu saw that she was reading quietly and stopped teasing her. He sat cross-legged on the bed to repair his soul.
Although he had taken Sima Youyue's pills and a drop of Soul Fluid, his soul was still rather weak. It was time to recuperate.
Thus, one of them sat on the bed to cultivate, while the other sat on the soft couch to read. They were quiet and did not disturb each other.
He stayed there for ten days.
In these ten days, the Sima family had thought of looking for Sima You Yue, but they had no idea where she was. Sima You Lin, who knew where she was, pondered for a while before keeping the jade stone away.
She could have resisted when she was taken away, but she just let them take her away.
She must have her reasons.
Ten days later, Wu Lingyu opened his eyes for the first time. He immediately saw her figure immersed in her calculations, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Done?" Sima Youyue raised her head and asked.
"Mm." Wu Lingyu came down and walked to her side. He grabbed a strand of her black hair and said, "You've been here for the past few days?"
"Mm." She pulled back her hair.
"You've been reading this book?"
"The arrays in this book are much more complete than others. It's harder to learn." Sima Youyue said, indirectly answering his question.
She kept the book and said, "I've asked Mo Sha. As long as I reach the divine rank, I will be able to break the contract with him and you can fuse. At that time, you won't have to be troubled by this. "
"Okay. Since that's the case, I'll stay by your side before you reach the divine rank. It'll prevent any trouble in between. "Wu Lingyu said.
"You're the holy son of the Sage Pavilion. What's wrong with you following me?" Sima Youyue disagreed, saying, "I'll ascend to the divine rank as soon as possible and go up to find you."
"You're chasing me away so quickly. You really don't have a conscience." Wu Lingyu said.
"I have my own things to do. You have nothing to do here." Sima Youyue said.
"I'm willing." Wu Lingyu said, "Then it's decided."
Those people from the Sima family knew that she was a girl. What if they came to harass her? He had to stay by her side during this period of time.
This girl was the kind of person who was unmoved. Once she was moved, she would be dead set on it. Although she didn't like anyone now, what if she fell in love with someone else when he left?
So he had to stay by her side and declare his sovereignty.
Sima Youyue didn't know what Wu Lingyu was thinking. But since he insisted, she let him be. After all, he had found so many precious books for her. She couldn't chase him away.
So, after being kidnapped for ten days, she brought Wu Lingyu back to the clan.
The goddess in their hearts brought back an evildoer. It was even the person who had kidnapped her back then. The entire Yi Lin clan was shocked. They watched as she brought that man back to her courtyard.
"Youyue?" Bei Gong Tang and the others were surprised when they saw Sima Youyue bring Wu Lingyu back.
Sima Youyue shrugged, saying, "He said that he wants to stay with us for a while."
"Then where will he stay?"
"Naturally, he'll stay with Junior Brother." Wu Lingyu said with a smile.
Stay together?
Fatty Qu and the others were stunned. Stay with her? How was that possible?!
But Sima Youyue nodded, saying, "Prepare a room for him in my courtyard."
Because there were more people in the clan, they still chose to use this kind of compound courtyard. A few people stayed in the same courtyard. But Sima Youyue's position in the clan was higher. She had many secrets, so she lived alone in a small courtyard.
Now she was actually willing to let Wu Lingyu stay in her courtyard. Wouldn't that mean that they would be together day and night?
In the past, it didn't matter if they didn't know that she was a girl. But now that they knew, the people in the clan didn't feel at ease letting Wu Lingyu stay with her.
But the other party's identity was special. Sima Youyue also agreed. They could only watch as Wu Lingyu moved into her courtyard.
Sima Youyue couldn't do anything when she saw their disapproving gazes. This guy insisted on staying by her side. He said that if anything happened to her, she would be able to find out in time.
She scoffed at his excuse. But when she checked his body, she agreed to his request.
It wasn't because of what if anything happened to him. But when she checked his soul, she thought of the trauma he had suffered and couldn't bear to reject his request.
Seeing that their goddess agreed to let a stranger stay with her, the young men's hearts broke.
But those who went to Sheng City had seen Wu Lingyu and knew his identity. Compared to him, they had no chance of winning.
As a result, the number of people loitering outside Sima Youyue's courtyard gradually decreased.
Seeing this effect, Wu Lingyu smiled in satisfaction.
