“Ah!” Upon hearing Chu Rui’s words, Po Kong cried out in alarm, though he only let out half a scream before he regained his composure.

But by the time he wanted to remedy the situation, seeing Chu Rui’s confirming expression, he knew…

it was all too late.

Once she had confirmed her suspicions, Chu Rui pouted her rosy lips, looked at Xin Yun, as well as Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying standing to his left and right, and revealed a devilish smile.

Feeling Chu Rui’s mischievous gaze, Xin Yun stiffened abruptly, and before he could turn his head, Chu Rui’s voice mischievously rang out, “Sect Master, there’s a question I’ve always wanted to ask but never found the time for.

I wonder…

is it inconvenient to ask about the sect’s rules now?”

Hearing Chu Rui’s words and seeing her gaze darting towards Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying, Xin Yun cursed his luck under his breath, knowing…

that today, everything he had arranged had been seen through by Chu Rui, and there was no avoiding it…

she had come looking for a scene.

As he pondered, Xin Yun firmly shook his head and said, “No…

it’s not convenient!

We haven’t seen each other for such a long time, it’s better to catch up on old times, and we can talk about other matters later.”

“Hehe…” Seeing Xin Yun’s worried look, Chu Rui couldn’t help reminiscing about her own earlier embarrassment, thinking…

what goes around comes around, and this time, it was Xin Yun’s turn to be embarrassed.

In her contemplation, Chu Rui shook her head and said, “That won’t do, this matter is very important, and the implications are significant.

We must reach a conclusion as soon as possible!”

Having said this, Chu Rui didn’t give Xin Yun a chance to interrupt, continuing, “All this time, whether it’s disciples from the Inner Sect or the Outer Sect, everyone has been unclear.

In the end, is Yi Luo Xiang the Sect Master’s wife, or is it Yan Qingying?

Honestly, even I am confused.”

Upon hearing Chu Rui’s words, Xin Yun heaved a heavy sigh, knowing that today’s matter was truly ruined.

Since it had already been asked publicly, even if he wanted to refuse to explain, he was likely unable to.

Otherwise, it would be disrespectful, not just to Yan Qingying, but also to Yi Luo Xiang!

As he mulled it over, Xin Yun shook his head bitterly and said, “Alright, since you’ve asked, I’ll tell you.

Although we’re not married yet, in the near future, Yi Luo Xiang will walk down the aisle with me!”

Hearing Xin Yun’s words, Chu Rui’s eyes brightened.

In fact…

before she asked all those questions, she had already understood very clearly that between Xin Yun, Yi Luo Xiang, and Yan Qingying, it was a complete mess—undoubtedly far more complicated than Po Kong by ten thousand fold!

The reason she asked despite knowing it all was not out of malice.

Chu Rui was well aware that in such a situation, all three of them were in pain, yet unsure how to deal with it.

Therefore…

an outsider’s help was needed for a chance at a perfect resolution to the entanglement.

However, no matter what, an outsider could only play a guiding role.

The real solution to all these troubles could only come from one person, and that person was Xin Yun.

Only he could resolve his own problems.

Others were of no use, because…

no one else could possibly make any decisions for him!

During her reflections, Chu Rui slightly narrowed her eyes and continued, “Oh!

Just as I expected, Yi Luo Xiang is indeed the Sect Master’s wife, but I’m curious, what does Sister Yan Qingying mean to you?”

“You!

I!

She…” Hearing Chu Rui’s words, Xin Yun could no longer stay seated—though he wanted to stand up and flee, he also knew that now was not the time to run, otherwise he would hurt both girls.

Watching Xin Yun’s restless demeanor, Yan Qingying sighed, bravely lifted her head, and said solemnly, “No need to ask further.

Yi Luo Xiang is my Main Mistress, and I, Yan Qingying, am a slave bought by Xin Yun, nothing more.”

“What!” As soon as Yan Qingying’s words fell, Po Kong let out a shocked cry, staring incredulously at Xin Yun and the two women, unable to believe his ears.

“Shut up!” At that moment, Xin Yun shouted angrily, standing up furiously, and said firmly, “Qingying, I’ve told you…

you are not anyone’s slave.

True, I did buy you, but from the day I bought you, I’ve told you that you are my partner, never a slave!”

Looking at the angry Xin Yun, Yan Qingying smiled gently, content as she gazed at him, and softly said, “Why be angry, why be upset?

For me…

as long as I can be by your side, nothing else matters.

Partner or slave, it’s just a title, and not important at all.”

As she spoke, Yan Qingying gently cradled Xin Yun’s left hand, holding it devoutly to her chest, and said dreamily, “As long as I can be with you, nothing else truly matters.”

Listening to Yan Qingying’s heartfelt words, Xin Yun couldn’t help but weep, for although he had already decided that in this life, he only wanted Yi Luo Xiang, facing such love from Yan Qingying, how could he utter the words of rejection!

Meanwhile, at Xin Yun’s right side, Yi Luo Xiang’s delicate body trembled violently, staring blankly into the distance, muttering to herself, “Yes…

as long as I can be with him, do the other things really matter?

Isn’t it quite good as it is now? freewebnoveℓ.com

Why must we change all of this—do we have to drive Yan Qingying away, make Xin Yun unhappy, in order for me to be happy?”

Recalling everything from the past, Yi Luo Xiang’s expression gradually changed.

She knew…

that everything Yan Qingying had said was true.

She had always adopted the mind-set of a slave, never trying to compete, always being on guard, wary, and worried; whereas Yan Qingying had always silently protected them, never asking for anything, without complaints.
