I Just Won’t Play by the Book

"Senior brother, thank you very much for saving me last time in Luoxia Town. This is a thank you gift I prepared, please accept it."

In front of a bronze mirror, Fang Qiuyao, who was bending over to salute, slowly raised her head, looked at herself and the gift in the mirror and sighed.

It has been nearly two weeks since the two churches cooperated, but they still haven't seen Senior Brother Jiang once, as if he is not a disciple of Lanxintang at all.

"Ugh……"

With a sigh, Fang Qiuyao lay down on the willow round table, and she couldn't help recalling the serious profile of her senior brother when he took her pulse.

She couldn't help showing a smile, and Fang Qiuyao took out a small red porcelain bottle and poured out a cyan elixir from it.

At that time, Jiang Beiran gave her three Qingxin Pills, but when she ate the last one, Fang Qiuyao couldn't bear to put it in her mouth, so she secretly hid it.

Put it on the tip of the nose and smell it, the fresh aroma is still there.

‘I don’t know why this medicine is so different, brother. ’

"Dong dong dong."

Just when Fang Qiuyao was intoxicated by the familiar fragrance, there was a sudden knock at the door.

Quickly stuffing the Qingxin Dan back into the porcelain vase, Fang Qiuyao asked, "Which one?"

"It's me, Qiu Yao, are you asleep?"

"Oh, Sister Zijin, I haven't slept yet." After speaking, he got up and walked over to open the wooden door.

Holding up the food box in his hand, Liu Zijin smiled and said, "I can't sleep, so I brought some snacks to chat with you, didn't I bother you?"

"Sister Zijin, look at what you said, there is nothing to disturb, come in quickly." Fang Qiuyao said and pulled Liu Zijin into the hut.

Sitting in the hut, Liu Zijin opened the food box and took out a plate of pea yellow inside.

"I just made it, try it."

"Wow, Sister Zijin, you really can make any kind of dessert." He couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth. After chewing a few bites, Fang Qiuyao nodded: "It's delicious."

"As long as you like it."

Looking at Liu Zijin's gentle smile, Fang Qiuyao asked halfway through the meal, "Sister Zijin, are you actually here to comfort me?"

After finishing their daily performances in Xianxinzhai today, the auditorium announced the disciples who will participate in the Yingjie Youth Association this time. Fang Qiuyao and Liu Zijin thought that they had just entered the school for less than a year, so they could not be selected, but they didn't. Thinking that not only Liu Zijin appeared in the final list, but even the three sisters of the Yu family were selected, but only Fang Qiuyao was not on the list.

For such a result, Fang Qiuyao said that it was impossible for him not to lose, but it was only a little bit.

Putting the remaining half of the pea yellow in his mouth, Fang Qiuyao swallowed it and said with a smile: "I'm a little lost, but I'm more happy for you guys. Sister Zijin, you play the pipa so well. It's a problem if you don't get selected."

Seeing that Fang Qiuyao didn't seem to be trying to be brave, Liu Zijin responded with a smile: "Actually, Qiuyao, you are also very good at playing the guzheng. Otherwise, Protector Yu wouldn't have specially come to point you at that time. You are really talented."

"Sister Zijin, please don't comfort me. In fact, I like to practice martial arts more than playing the piano, but now..."

Liu Zijin's expression suddenly became a little lost. Since she met the "Ghost Crying Woman", her heart that used to be a swordsman has cooled a lot, and the "life plan" that was originally clear has now become blurred.

'I really want to ask senior brother what his ideals in life are...' Fang Qiuyao shoved another piece of pea yellow into his mouth.

...

The next morning, Jiang Beiran quietly came to Tinglan Waterside Pavilion as usual, greeted Xiaoduo and walked into the main hall.

Shi Fenglan, who had already heard Jiang Beiran's voice, ran out immediately and shouted, "Xiao Beiran, Xiao Beiran~"

"Meet Hall Master Shi." Jiang Beiran cupped his hands.

Running to stop in front of Jiang Beiran, Shi Fenglan coughed and said, "I have great news, do you want to hear it?"

As soon as Shi Fenglan finished speaking, three options popped up in front of Jiang Beiran.

[Option 1: "I don't know what the Hall Master is referring to?" Completion reward: Scarlet Rainbow Palm (Lower Profound Grade)]

[Option 2: "I don't want to.". Completion Reward: Completion Reward: Random Basic Skill Point +1]

After choosing the second, Jiang Beiran shook his head and said, "I don't want to."

"Hmm!" Shi Fenglan suddenly puffed up, "Just say you want to hear it!"

"If the hall master insists on saying it, then the disciple will leave first."

Shi Fenglan was about to speak again when she heard Yu Manwen's voice coming from behind.

"Teacher, don't talk about it, or he will really turn around and run away."

"It's obviously a good thing." Shi Fenglan pouted in disbelief.

"Who doesn't have any quirks, right, Jiang Beiran?" Yu Manwen looked at Jiang Beiran and asked.

"Thank you for protecting the law." Jiang Beiran bowed to Yu Manwen.

After being choked by the two of them singing together, Shi Fenglan lost her excitement at the beginning, so she gave up and said, "Okay, let's play chivalry..." Halfway through, Shi Fenglan thought of Yu Manwen Before leaving, he quickly changed his mind and said, "Xia Zhu..."

Yu Manwen didn't expose it either, and left after saying "no nonsense".

As soon as Manwen left, Shi Fenglan immediately "revolted", took out the chain fairy who had slept all night and shouted: "Xiao Beiran, quickly take out the betting table! Today's winner must still be me!"

"Do business first." Jiang Beiran walked towards the flower room after saying that.

At night, just as Shi Fenglan threw a six to let her iron beggar leave the sect, she looked up and saw Yu Manwen walking in quickly.

"We just started playing..." Shi Fenglan explained immediately.

But Yu Manwen didn't talk about her this time, but looked at Jiang Beiran next to her and asked, "Are you agreeing to go to the Yingjie Youth Club organized by the Covering Moon Sect?"

"Yes." Jiang Beiran nodded calmly.

"You... how could you agree to such a thing!?" Yu Manwen asked in astonishment.

"As a disciple of Guixin Sect, shouldn't you fight for the honor of Guixin Sect?"

"I believe what other disciples say, you... As long as the Guixin Sect is not facing a crisis of extinction, it is absolutely impossible to come forward!"

'Ok! ? Is this a woman's sixth sense? It really made her guess. ’

However, Jiang Beiran still said calmly on the surface: "Yu Hufa, you have misunderstood me too deeply. I don't touch on many things just because my strength is too low. This time I'm just going to test my chess skills. I will naturally do my part."

Although Yu Manwen still had a look of disbelief, he couldn't find anything to refute Jiang Beiran for a while. Shi Fenglan, who was beside him, saw that Yu Manwen didn't speak, so he interrupted and said, "Xiao Beiran, you are going to participate in that young hero meeting. Your small body is really dangerous in the past, do you want this hall master to give you some magic weapon to protect yourself?"
