Chapter 59: Very Considerate

Chapter 59: Very Considerate

“W- why aren’t you eating?” Qin Shi Meng felt weird and shy from Ye Yong’s gaze, but she didn’t find it to be repulsive.

“I’ve already eaten.” He had spent so many transcend points buying a full cooking set, so he could eat whenever he wanted to.

Qin Shi Meng could finish the two dishes by herself, and she could even eat a couple more dishes. If it wasn’t because Ye Yong was afraid that Qin Shi Meng’s divine soul would be harmed due to consuming too much divine soul nourishment, Ye Yong wouldn’t have minded giving her a whole feast. “You have to finish it, don’t waste any food.”

“Mmm…” Qin Shi Meng continued eating with her head down. She ate slowly, taking small bites each time, worried about leaving a bad impression.

Ye Yong didn’t say anything and just watched her silently.

Qin Shi Meng finished eating and wiped her lips with a handkerchief. Ever since she broke through the 7th layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, she hadn’t eaten so much food at once. Not only was this food incredibly delicious, but it also nourished her divine soul and helped her mind recover, so it was a meal that cultivators could only dream of.

“Thank you for the food.” Qin Shi Meng said.

“No need for thanks. Remember to come back often in the future.”

“Mmm…” Qin Shi Meng lowered her head and responded in a small voice.

“My lady!” Lil Huan called out to Qin Shi Meng at the door of Wu Xue’s room.

Qin Shi Meng understood what Lil Huan meant and beckoned at her, and Lil Huan immediately came over to her side.

“Bro- Brother Yong.” Qin Shi Meng had always been unsure how to address Ye Yong properly. She thought that calling him Young Master Ye felt too distant while using his full name didn’t reflect their friendship. He’s one year older than me, so it should be fine to call him Brother Yong, right?

“What’s wrong?” Ye Yong didn’t care how Qin Shi Meng addressed him. He might just get a little excited if Qin Shi Meng called him hubby.

Seeing that Ye Yong didn’t mind her addressing him that way, Qin Shi Meng mentioned Lil Huan’s desire to cultivate.

In the novel, Lil Huan didn’t have much part in the novel, but knowing her in person, Ye Yong felt like she was a “girl next door” who had just grown up. She was about half a head taller than Wu Xue and had a cute appearance that was quite pleasing to the eye. At the very least, during the past four days when Qin Shi Meng was in enlightenment, Ye Yong thought that she was smart and diligent. She competed with Wu Xue for housework, and she was even unhappy that Wu Xue beat her and did all the chores. Unfortunately, she didn’t have a part in the novel, so Ye Yong didn’t know if she could cultivate.

“Have you thought about letting her cultivate before?” Ye Yong decided to gather some information first.

“Yes. Unfortunately, she has the lowest rank water spiritual root, and her physique isn’t very good, so my family wouldn’t let her cultivate. I have secretly given her some resources to help her forge her physique, but she failed every time.” Qin Shi Meng answered.

“I see.” No wonder Lil Huan didn’t have much part in the novel. The novel focused on women who were strong, whether they were righteous or evil. With those circumstances, Lil Huan isn’t suitable for cultivation at all. If Lil Huan had to be given a part, then the dog author would most likely just have Qin Shi Meng lament about the shortness of mortal life after Lil Huan died of old age.

In fact, in the novel, after Qin Shi Meng had become the Immortal Empress, she did mention missing Lil Huan. However, since the novel was already in its later parts, Ye Yong had forgotten that Qin Shi Meng had a personal maid and only remembered once he reread the novel.

Now that Lil Huan was alive in front of him, helping Qin Shi Meng’s favorite maid cultivate would most likely increase her favorability of Ye Yong. Besides, in the Physique Forging Encyclopedia, there was indeed one physique that suited her spiritual roots.

Before that, Ye Yong decided to check her physique first to see if she had something blocking her spiritual veins and was the type that couldn’t cultivate at all. “Come here for a moment.”

Although Lil Huan had been with Ye Yong for four days, she had never disturbed him or dared to appear in front of him. Suddenly being asked to come over made her nervous, not because she was afraid Ye Yong would eat her, but because to her, Ye Yong was basically her oshi. No one wouldn’t be nervous when approaching their oshi.

Step by step, Lil Huan slowly moved toward Ye Yong. Without giving her a chance to react, Ye Yong took her hand and injected spiritual energy into her body.

Lil Huan instantly felt a warm flow from Ye Yong entering her body. As the warmth spread throughout her body, she felt as if Ye Yong saw her whole body and felt extremely embarrassed.

Letting go of Lil Huan’s hand, Ye Yong in a low voice, said, “You can cultivate, but it may be more difficult for you compared to ordinary cultivators.”

“It’s okay! I can endure hardships!” Excited at the prospect of being able to cultivate, Lil Huan forgot her shyness. As long as she could cultivate, she could live a little longer and accompany Qin Shi Meng for a little longer.

“Alright, I’ll prepare some materials first and notify you to come over to forge your physique when I’m done preparing.” Ye Yong could forge Lil Huan’s physique right now by buying the materials with transcend points, but it was better to buy things with spirit stones when possible. Although he had plenty of transcend points left, it didn’t mean that he could just waste them.

“What materials do you need? I’ll go and prepare them.” Qin Shi Meng felt that Ye Yong was already doing her a big favor by helping Lil Huan forge her physique, and she thought that it was too much to also have Ye Yong prepare the materials.

“You should go back and cultivate in seclusion for a bit, and digest and review what you’ve learned. Then we’ll talk about it.”

“Mmm…” Qin Shi Meng lowered her head. Ye Yong seemed to be considerate of her all the time, and she felt happy but apologetic. There were many things she wanted to say, like why Ye Yong was so nice to her, but when the words got to her mouth, they all got reduced to just “thank you”.

“I’ve been here for four days. I- I’ll go back now.” Actually, Qin Shi Meng wanted to stay here for longer, but she felt somewhat strange today as she could no longer properly look at Ye Yong’s eyes as she talked.

“Alright. Take this with you. It’s something I drew and may help you in comprehending sword intent.” Ye Yong took out a piece of paper and handed it to Qin Shi Meng.

Qin Shi Meng was a little curious about it, but she didn’t open it in front of him. She thanked him again, put the drawing into her sleeve, and hurriedly bid farewell to him with Lil Huan.

When she returned to Treasure Sword Mountain, Qin Shi Meng was immediately summoned by her master.

An Yu Fang looked like a mortal woman in her fifties, with beautiful features, indicating that she must have been a woman loved by male cultivators when she was young. However, her beauty had been partially obscured by the wrinkles on her face.

“Shi Meng, I heard you spent four days with Ye Yong in the Music and Art Hall?”

“Yes,” Qin Shi Meng nodded.

“Neither of you are married, so these kinds of news spreading aren’t very good. You may not know, but because you’re very talented, there are many people who envy you. Luckily, you just stayed in the pavilion and not his room; otherwise, even if there wasn’t anything going on between you two… anyway, words can be terrifying.”

Everyone knew that Qin Shi Meng had gone to see Ye Yong that day. As time passed, bad rumors started spreading, but because Qin Shi Meng was staying in the gazebo and because Yi Bai and the other Music and Art Hall disciples vouched for their innocence, the bad rumors didn’t spread too far or too long.

Qin Shi Meng was stunned. She hadn’t thought about it at all. She remembered when she went to see Ye Yong that day, he had invited her to the gazebo instead of into his room. He probably did it because he thought of it. A single woman spending four days in a single man’s room would surely lead to terrible rumors.

Suddenly, Ye Yong’s figure appeared in Qin Shi Meng’s mind. Brother Yong is so considerate. Not only did gift me an enlightenment, but he also took into account my reputation.

Favorability +5.

“What did you gain from being in enlightenment for 4 days?” An Yu Fang didn’t intend to interfere with her disciple’s private matters, but since Ye Yong and Qin Shi Meng weren’t in a confirmed relationship, she thought it was best for there not to be rumors about them.

“I did gain some small insights.” Qin Shi Meng didn’t dare to say that she had comprehended the [Frozen Heart Sword Art] to the introductory level because that progress was way too fast.

“Oh? What’s in your clothes?” An Yu Fang suddenly noticed a hint of sword intent emanating from Qin Shi Meng’s sleeve.

Qin Shi Meng took out the scroll that Ye Yong gave her before she had left.

Without waiting for Qin Shi Meng to answer, An Yu Fang urged, “Can you open it and let me see?”

Qin Shi Meng hesitated for a moment but still opened the scroll. As soon as she unfolded it, she was greeted with a sharp sword intent.
