YM778.TV Chapter 240 - Yiyi's Foul Mouth
Yun Yiyi was lying on the bed with a scented candle burning by her pillow to help her recover. Although her face was still a little pale, it had improved a lot compared to the day she was brought back by Hu Tianyue.
These days, in the three peaks, Flowing Water, Night Tide, and Sword Wine, Sword Sect disciples in the Core Formation stage were patrolling everywhere. Not to mention a person, even a mosquito trying to fly in, couldn\'t do it.
"Cough cough--"
Two coughs broke the silence in the room.
The two Core Formation female cultivators guarding the door immediately poured tea and walked to Yun Yiyi\'s bedside to check her condition.
Seeing her slowly opening her eyes, they hurried to help her up. "Miss, are you awake? Have some water to quench your thirst. You\'ve been sustained by spiritual liquid for three days; your throat must be sore."
Yun Yiyi looked at the two disciples she was not familiar with and felt slightly wary, but she did not have much energy to resist, so she still sat up from the bed with the help of the two.
She took a sip of water and asked after a moment, "Who are you?"
"I am a disciple of the Middle Peak and study under Elder Hu. You can call me Sister Yu." One of the disciples introduced herself, then motioned to the other person. "This is my younger sister, a disciple of Elder Tianxing. She is Sister Xu."
Hearing Elder Hu\'s name, Yun Yiyi felt slightly relieved.
She lowered her head and looked at the face reflected in the bowl of clear water in her hand. After reminiscing for a while about Jade Snow Peak\'s situation, she suddenly widened her eyes and hurriedly asked, "How is my second sister?"
"The Second Miss\'s condition is slightly worse than yours but still stable. She should be recuperating at Sword Wine Peak now, with several Core Formation disciples watching over her."
"What about... Jade Snow Peak? I remember... there was a big fire on the mountain... and Elder Zhuang..."
"The earth spirit fire has been extinguished with the help of the Elders. Third Miss is now overseeing the follow-up matters."
"Yun Xi..."
"Yes." Sister Yu nodded and sighed helplessly. "Third Lady was not seriously injured, and the earth spirit fire burned the demonic beasts\' nests on the mountain. As a result, the beasts fled in all directions and clashed with beasts in other places, so in the past few days, the Third Lady has been leading her disciples to destroy the demonic beasts everywhere.
"... These days?" Yun Yiyi caught onto that phrase. "How many days have I slept?"
"Three days have passed since Elder Hu brought you back."
"Three days..."
Yun Yiyi murmured, with the nagging feeling that something was forgotten and a lingering sense of unease in her heart. After thinking for a while, the name "Ye Anping" finally popped into her mind.
"Ye Anping... Where is Young Master Ye?!"
"Young Master Ye?"
Sister Yu and Sister Xu exchanged glances. Apparently, they didn\'t know this "Ye Anping" Yun Yiyi was talking about. After all, her engagement to Ye Anping had not yet been made public.
Seeing their expressions, Yun Yiyi\'s heart tightened. She bit her lip and got out of bed barefoot, running toward the door.
The two were startled, and they quickly chased after her, stopping her before she went out. "Eldest Miss, what are you doing? You still need to rest."
"..."
Probably having slept for too long, Yun Yiyi was still a bit confused even now, and she didn\'t know how to explain it, so she only frowned and scolded the two. "Let go."
And at this very moment, Huang Quan\'s voice came from outside the house.
---"Young Master, please walk slower, I... I have short legs and can\'t keep up."
Young Master?!
The moment she heard Huang Quan\'s words, Yun Yiyi\'s mouth opened, her pupils contracted, and she immediately opened the main hall door.
In the courtyard outside the main house, Huang Quan was holding a red wax-paper umbrella with both hands, standing beside a young man in white. The young man\'s face was bandaged, but his deep purple eyes were extremely clear.
Ye Anping heard the door opening, turned his head, and saw Yun Yiyi standing barefoot inside the main hall\'s gate. A hint of joy appeared on his face but quickly turned into guilt.
"Miss Yun..."
Ye Anping was about to greet her, but before he could take a step, Yun Yiyi came straight out, stepped on the accumulated puddles on the ground with her bare feet, and flew toward him.
Splat-splat---
Her bare feet splashed water in all directions.
Yun Yiyi threw herself into Ye Anping\'s arms and pressed her face tightly against his chest.
"Anping..."
Seeing her Young Lady wake up, Huang Quan felt a little lost, thinking that she might not be able to spend the whole day with her master, but she still dutifully held the umbrella above their heads while she stayed outside in the rain.
Ye Anping looked at Yun Yiyi\'s tearful eyes, reached out to gently pat her back, and said, "Sorry, as your husband, I should have protected you. But... that night, I was negligent; some people came into my room and released a strong poison. I almost lost my life..."
"No~~" Yun Yiyi shook her head as she tightly grasped Ye Anping\'s collar. "I am the one who should have protected you. That night, after I heard that person say that you were dead... I...I ... sob..."
Actually, it was me who said it... Ye Anping pursed his lips awkwardly and asked, "Someone said I was dead?"
"No..." Yun Yiyi quickly covered Ye Anping\'s mouth with her hand, shaking her head. "Let\'s not talk about it. It\'s not auspicious. As long as you\'re still here, it\'s all good."
Two large tears squeezed out from the corners of her eyes as she broke into a smile and hugged Ye Anping tightly again, feeling his body temperature and smelling his scent...
Drip drip---
The light rain fell on the paper umbrella, and the two people underneath embraced each other in silence for a long time.
After a while, the two disciples who were guarding the main house also came out in the rain. They looked at Ye Anping and were amazed at his appearance, thinking that this young man was truly as handsome as a painting.
Having guarded for so long, they hadn\'t even noticed such a person in the Cloud Mansion.
As Ye Anping saw them, he hurriedly patted Yun Yiyi\'s back to alert her and awkwardly nodded in greeting. "Greetings Senior Sisters. I am Ye Anping."
Yun Yiyi slowly let go of Ye Anping, but immediately grabbed his hand, took a deep breath, and said, "Sister Yu, Sister Xu. He is my husband. We are already engaged."
The two looked a little regretful but quickly cupped their hands in return.
After that, Yun Yiyi ignored them, looked at her bare feet standing on the blue stone tiles, and then simply stepped on Ye Anping\'s feet. She smiled and asked, "Husband, can you carry me back to the room?"
"Of course."
Ye Anping sighed, then put his arms around her waist and bent down to pick her up. However, she seemed to be waiting for the moment he leaned over.
Yun Yiyi\'s eyes narrowed slightly, and she directly pressed her lips onto Ye Anping\'s lips in a gentle kiss.
Mwah~
Ye Anping\'s eyes widened, and his cheeks flushed slightly.
"..."
Seeing him blush, Yun Yiyi found it very cute. She smiled and asked, "Well? How was it..."
---You didn\'t wake up for three days. Do you know what taste is in your mouth? And you\'re still asking me how it is?
Ye Anping swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, forced a smile, and said, "Miss Yun, you have slept for three days. Have some water first."
"Ah..." Yun Yiyi seemed to come back to her senses, and her face suddenly paled. She lowered her head to take a deep breath and then turned even paler. "...This... Young Master Ye... I..."
"It\'s okay."
Ye Anping replied calmly as he picked her up princess-style, walked into the main house, and placed her back on the bed before pouring her a cup of tea.
