Immortal Fairies Always Have Designs on Me-Chapter 917 - 385: Aunt Ruo’s Golden Canary Revealed to Master

Inside the White Jade Palace.

Lu Jin'an was comforting Zhiyu, who was sitting in his arms, crying and full of guilt.

Aunt Ruo had already recounted what happened earlier, so he only felt heartache at this moment.

Like Aunt Ruo, he never expected Zhiyu would use self-harm to feel this pain, and now she kept sobbing and apologizing to him as her Master.

Lu Jin'an gently patted Zhiyu's back, "Don't cry, don't cry, I won't dislike you because of this, Zhiyu."

Zhiyu looked up at Lu Jin'an with teary eyes; the table full of delicacies couldn't catch her slightest attention at this moment, "Re-really?"

"Really." Lu Jin'an kissed her forehead, "Zhiyu didn't do it on purpose, right?"

"Mm-hmm!" Zhiyu nodded quickly, her tears splashing onto Lu Jin'an's lapel, "Zhiyu is afraid of pain, Zhiyu doesn't want Master to hurt!"

"So, I'm not going to blame Zhiyu." Lu Jin'an comforted gently, "So Zhiyu, give me a smile."

Zhiyu obediently showed a smile, but her teary look made her… uhh, even cuter.

Lu Jin'an's eyes flashed with amusement, "Zhiyu is so good, but you have to be stronger in the future, understand?"

"Mm-hmm." Zhiyu nodded quickly and couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you really not blame Zhiyu?"

"Of course not." Lu Jin'an shook his head, "I am your Master, protecting you is my responsibility, understand?"

"Bu-but…" Zhiyu pursed her little lips, wanting to say something but unsure how to express her inner thoughts.

Xiao Yinruo, watching from the side, chuckled softly and patted Zhiyu's little head, "Zhiyu, if you become stronger, you can protect Master from bleeding and hurting."

Upon hearing the beautiful auntie's voice, Zhiyu's heterochromatic eyes lit up, and she quickly nodded at Lu Jin'an, indicating that this was what she wanted to say.

Lu Jin'an couldn't help but smile but didn't seize the opportunity to say encouraging words; instead, he softly said, "Becoming strong is a gradual process. For now, your task is to finish this table of dishes; you haven't eaten in so long, you must be starving?"

Zhiyu stared blankly at Lu Jin'an's gentle eyes, her little nose crinkled, looking as if she was about to cry again.

Lu Jin'an rubbed her little cheek, helping her get dressed while saying, "Cry again, and you won't be cute anymore."

Zhiyu sniffed, quickly clenched her hands to hold back tears, and asked while lifting her arms and legs through the clothing, "Master, what if Zhiyu still wants to cry?"

Lu Jin'an, having dressed her, asked back, "What does Zhiyu want to do?"

Zhiyu buried her little face into his chest and muffledly said, "Zhiyu wants this."

Lu Jin'an gently patted her quivering body, "Alright, if you want to cry, come to me."

"Mm-hmm!"

Zhiyu grasped Lu Jin'an's clothing tightly, lightly snuggling in his embrace, wetting a large part of his outer garment.

Just as Lu Jin'an was about to speak again and urge her to eat, Zhiyu voluntarily left his embrace, looking up with a sweet smile, "Zhiyu is hungry; Zhiyu wants to eat something delicious now."

"Go ahead and eat."

Lu Jin'an smiled, looking at the happiness-filled face of Zhiyu. He stood up and walked to the side, both practicing alchemy and thoughtfully watching Zhiyu.

"Your mouth is very good at coaxing people."

Xiao Yinruo came to his side, sat down with her legs crossed, and smiled at him. The little rascal hadn't seized the opportunity to encourage Zhiyu to cultivate well but had left a seed in Zhiyu's heart.

She was certain Zhiyu would become more proactive in getting stronger... hmm, not just guessing.

Xiao Yinruo glanced at Zhiyu, who was eating with one hand and operating the space rules with the other, the smile in her peach blossom eyes deepening.

Lu Jin'an, refining the 'Bluff Pill,' whispered, "I merely chose the best way."

Saying this, Lu Jin'an glanced at her, "Be careful; it's all sincere."

"Aunty knows." Xiao Yinruo pinched his cheek, "'Body and mind' are both sincere, right?"

"Ahem." Lu Jin'an cleared his throat, speaking solemnly, "It's all from the heart."

At this, he couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yinruo's flat belly because she mentioned 'body and mind,' wondering what Aunt Ruo would look like with a belly.

Surely very attractive.

Lu Jin'an withdrew his gaze and looked back at Zhiyu, softly saying, "Zhiyu's verbal expression has improved a lot compared to before."

"Because she passed the 'Life Tribulation'?" Xiao Yinruo rested her hands on her legs and leaned her body against Lu Jin'an's shoulder, "The dragon blood flowing through her makes the brain more active than before; that should be it."

"Probably." Lu Jin'an took in the elegant fragrance from Xiao Yinruo, "In any case, it's a good thing."

"Mm." Xiao Yinruo closed her eyes, cherishing the short time they had together, "Do you think, with me leaning against you like this, will Zhiyu slip up and mention it?"

"I'll teach her well." Lu Jin'an chuckled, "Besides, it wouldn't matter much if she did."

Xiao Yinruo let out a soft huff, "I don't want anyone to know."

"Yes, yes." Lu Jin'an turned his head and kissed her forehead, "I respect Aunt Ruo's preferences very much."

"Mm." Xiao Yinruo's lips curled into a smile, "By the way, there's quite a bit of blood on the bedroom floor from Zhiyu; collect and refine it later.

Although Zhiyu's realm isn't very high now, the Candle Dragon's blood can still give you a bit of help... better than nothing."

Saying this, she gestured with her slender fingers, and Zhiyu's dragon blood flowed along her aquamarine spiritual power to Lu Jin'an's front, "Or, give it to that Eastern Xing Lan girl."
