After Breaking Off the Engagement, I Started Pursuing My Master

Chapter 162: Who’s More Shameless?

Back in the room, Luo Yueguan’s previously calm and elegant demeanor vanished in an instant. She sat on the bed, kicked off her shoes, and swung her feet in the air like a petulant little girl throwing a tantrum.

It was strange; she seemed to only act this way when alone with Jiang Huai. At other times, in front of others, she always maintained a calm and icy demeanor.

“So angry, so angry, so angry!”

Luo Yueguan lay on the bed, clutching the blanket, her cheeks puffing up again.

Jiang Huai looked at Luo Yueguan oddly, feeling that she was becoming increasingly unrestrained in his presence. She used to deliberately maintain a certain dignity befitting of Aunt Luo, but that seemed to have disappeared recently.

This left Wen Wanwan somewhat at a loss. Luo Yueguan looked up at Jiang Huai.

“Just sit anywhere. The Immortal Spirit Secret Realm will open again at sunrise tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Huai nodded lightly, then couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Who was that woman you were arguing with just now?”

“That’s Mu Lingwan, the second in command of the Mu family from Linglong Continent. Hundreds of years ago, I snatched an opportunity from her in a secret realm, and we’ve been at odds ever since. The man she used to like chased me for a long time, but I never gave him a second glance, and the more I ignored him, the more embarrassed she became, so she hates me,” Luo Yueguan said, her frustration seeming to lessen as she spoke.

She tilted her little face up, suddenly remembering something, and said dejectedly, “I also lost fifty thousand spirit stones to her in Go before.”

“How can you lose so much in a game of Go?”

“She tricked me. We’ve played a few games in the past, and I would win one out of five games. I don’t know how her Go skills have improved so much in the last two years. We agreed to play five games, ten thousand per game, and I lost them all.”

Thinking about it, Luo Yueguan couldn’t help but roll around on the bed in anger.

Where did this petulant girl come from? Jiang Huai watched her act this way, feeling a bit overwhelmed, and said with a helpless smile, “Alright, alright, just consider it a lesson bought. Don’t play with her anymore.”

“But it’s not just about the fifty thousand spirit stones; it’s about losing face. Jiang Huai, tell me, has your Go improved lately?”

Jiang Huai became even more helpless, “My Go skills aren’t about improving; it’s about... being invincible. Do you understand? Invincible.”

“Is that true?” Luo Yueguan’s eyes lit up.

“You’re not thinking of having me play a couple of games with that Mu Lingwan, are you?”

“You guessed right.”

Luo Yueguan’s lips curled slightly, her pink tongue lightly licking the corner of her mouth.

Jiang Huai shrank back, “I wouldn’t. The scariest thing in the world is provoking a woman.”

Luo Yueguan smiled, “So, do you think it’s scarier to provoke her or me?”

“We have a good relationship, so it should be scarier to provoke her.”

“What if I tell Chu Xianning that the woman by your side is no longer a virgin and that you’ve also lost your vital essence... What do you think Chu Xianning would think?”

As soon as Luo Yueguan uttered her threat, Jiang Huai’s face already showed an expression of ‘I knew you would say that.’

He looked helplessly at Luo Yueguan, “Even if you don’t say it, I will tell my master when I go back. And when Qingyu comes out, I will tell her too... In the secret realm, it was Wanwan who saved my life.”

Seeing Jiang Huai so confident, Luo Yueguan began to think of other ways to threaten him. Jiang Huai wanted to continue explaining.

“In the secret realm...”

“I don’t want to hear it, I don’t care. You can explain it to Qingyu.”

Luo Yueguan covered her ears and shook her head.

Whose child is this?

“I don’t care, I’ve already sent the message to your master. Do you know how much it drains the soul to send a message over such a distance? My soul is already weak, and now it’s burdened even more, and my head hurts terribly.”

“Shall I massage it for you?”

“No, go play those two games of Go with her, and my headache will go away.”

Luo Yueguan sat up, crossed her arms over her chest, and lifted her feet slightly, swinging them in front of Jiang Huai, trying to attract his gaze and sway his thoughts.

Unfortunately, Jiang Huai Jr. had changed and was no longer the naive boy he once was. Luo Yueguan’s seduction had no effect on him.

No longer the naive guy, it seemed his resistance to temptation was now at full capacity.

Of course, Luo Yueguan could tell his gaze hadn’t shifted. She pouted slightly; before, just showing her feet or squeezing her chest would always inadvertently attract Jiang Huai’s gaze. Now that the little dog had tasted meat, it was different, and she found it annoying.

“I’ll give you fifty thousand spirit stones, don’t be mad.”

Jiang Huai approached the bed, and in the next moment, Luo Yueguan lifted her long, slender legs and hooked them around his waist, pulling him to the edge of the bed. Her dress had become somewhat disheveled from rolling around on the bed earlier, and the neckline had slipped down a bit. Her eyes stared straight at Jiang Huai.

“I’ve already told you it’s not about the spirit stones, I’m just really angry.”

“You’re not a child anymore. Didn’t you realize earlier that showing anger is embarrassing?”

“But I’m still angry. Just tell me, are you going to stand up for me or not?”

“...It feels so childish.”

“You’re the childish one! You don’t understand women at all. Women take these things very seriously. If she hadn’t found a partner who was good at Go, there’s no way she could have beaten me. I don’t care, I don’t care. If you don’t stand up for me today, I’ll...”

“You’ll what?”

“I’ll kiss you and then tell Chu Xianning that I kissed you.”

“You’re truly unbeatable when it comes to being disgusting.”

Jiang Huai helplessly reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her hand away, “Alright, alright, I’ll accompany you later to play two games with her, okay?”

Luo Yueguan’s face lit up with joy in an instant, her lips curving into a smile. But moments later, she became doubtful again, her dark eyes shifting.

“But her Go skills have really improved a lot. Are you sure you won’t lose?”

“Sigh, doubt, sigh, then I guess I won’t go through with it.”

“I’ll trust you, okay? Really...”

Luo Yueguan reached out to pinch Jiang Huai’s cheek, pulling him in front of her, “Alright, now it’s time to tell me, what’s the deal between you and this Junior Sister Wen Wanwan?”

“Don’t you not care?” Jiang Huai replied irritably.

“Then won’t I have to help you coax Qingyu later? Don’t I have the right to know?”

Jiang Huai’s face showed helplessness, but he still sat on the edge of the bed and softly began to recount his encounter with Mo Dan and the accidental dual cultivation with Wen Wanwan. Sitting on the side, Wen Wanwan seemed somewhat at a loss. She had been brewing tea on the table, but now her hands trembled slightly.

After Jiang Huai finished speaking, Wen Wanwan picked up the tea bowl, came in front of Luo Yueguan, and said softly.

“Sect Master Luo... please have some tea.”

Her tone was especially humble and respectful, and Luo Yueguan glanced at her indifferently, showing no fault, even though she sneered inwardly. However, she sat up straighter, took the tea from Wen Wanwan’s hands, and said with a gentle smile.

“Thank you, you should have some too. If it weren’t for you this time, this fool Jiang Huai might have died in the secret realm. Don’t worry, I’ll say a few good words for you to Qingyu. Qingyu is not a girl who can’t distinguish right from wrong. She won’t hold a grudge against you over this.”

“Shut up,” Jiang Huai muttered, giving Luo Yueguan a sideways glance.

“What? I’m not bullying anyone.”

“No, it’s just that this isn’t your business, and you don’t need to help. I have a feeling that the more you try to help, the worse it gets.”

“Who do you look down on? Silly kid, let me tell you, don’t think that just because I’m casual in front of you, you can treat me like a child. I’ve lived over five hundred years more than you, I’ve crossed more bridges than you’ve walked roads...”

“Enough,” Jiang Huai teased with a chuckle.

“Your emotional intelligence depends on random updates. Normally you’re fine, but when you get heated... you know what you’re like.”

Luo Yueguan was about to pounce in anger, but Jiang Huai had already anticipated it, placing his hand on her shoulder.

“Alright, alright, is your head really hurting or are you faking it? If it’s really hurting, I’ll rub it for you.”

“Of course it’s really hurting.”

Luo Yueguan’s lips curved into a smile, and she shifted her body to lie straight on the bed, resting her head on Jiang Huai’s lap, who was sitting on the edge. Jiang Huai looked down and gently massaged her head.

Luo Yueguan’s lips curled up, her eyes fixed on him without blinking. Jiang Huai looked down into her bright eyes, and for a moment, he felt as if it was Luo Qingyu lying on his lap, her eyes also watery and tender with a hint of affection.

Damn it, damn it, damn it!

How was he supposed to lower Luo Yueguan’s affection for him without intentionally disgusting her and making her sad?

What if her affection kept growing and she ended up falling in love?

With Luo Yueguan’s crazy temperament, Jiang Huai had a terrible premonition that his life would become a chaotic mess.

The thought was terrifying!

...

“My neck needs a rub too.”

“...”

“My shoulders need a rub too.”

“...”

“My waist and legs need a rub too.”

“Do your breasts and butt need a rub too?”

Jiang Huai sneered, but at that moment, Luo Yueguan, who had just laid down with her chest facing the bed, turned her head, her eyes colder than his, “Showing your true colors, huh? I’m Qingyu’s mother! Keep your status in mind, and don’t speak out of turn. This is the only warning, don’t let it happen again!”

After speaking, she huffed, seemingly finding it particularly amusing to pierce through Jiang Huai’s defenses of shame. Unfortunately, the next second, Jiang Huai had already slapped her plump buttocks.

Luo Yueguan’s body trembled, almost instantly... becoming limp and powerless.

“I have different thick skins for different people. For someone shameless like you, I can be shameless too,” Jiang Huai huffed, but unexpectedly, he didn’t hear Luo Yueguan’s retort.

At this moment, Luo Yueguan, with her chin on the pillow, slightly squinted her eyes. The curve of her waist and buttocks was excessively exaggerated. Jiang Huai thought she would continue to argue, but now... Luo Yueguan just squinted her eyes, and it might have been his imagination, but it seemed like her buttocks perked up a bit more, as if tempting him... to hit again.

No, no, no, Jiang Huai Jr., what have you done!

Why reward her?!
