After Recklessly Courting Death, I Caught the Attention of a Yandere - Chapter 36

When Xiao Yueqing heard Yun Dan’s words, he was completely stunned.

“Beauty? Where did you see such things?”

He felt that there definitely shouldn’t be such things in his manor, so where did she learn this nonsense?

Seeing that Xiao Yueqing showed no signs of anger, Yun Dan became a bit bolder.

“That’s right, little beauty. Coming to a flower thief’s place in the middle of the night like this—it’s like someone bringing you a pillow when you’re sleepy. Aren’t you afraid of delivering yourself right into a den of thieves?”

Xiao Yueqing showed no fear whatsoever, instead provocatively saying, “Then may I ask, little bean sprout, what exactly do you plan to do to me?”

He then put on a very frivolous appearance, looking Yun Dan up and down, and said, “With you? I’m afraid you couldn’t arouse my… interest.”

He deliberately emphasized the last two words.

However, the thin-skinned Yun Dan actually became embarrassed.

She had only intended to tease Xiao Yueqing and hadn’t thought about anything else at all.

Living ten extra years really had made his skin thicker.

“Those ten years of yours all went to your face, didn’t they? What kind of master are you?”

Xiao Yueqing shot back without hesitation.

“Look at yourself right now—is this how a disciple should act toward their master? Which disciple would sit in this position? Look at yourself, see exactly where you’re sitting right now.”

Yun Dan had thought he was joking.

However, when she looked down, she discovered that she actually was…

Like a thief caught red-handed, she struggled to get down from Xiao Yueqing’s body.

But Xiao Yueqing caught her at that moment, causing Yun Dan to roll to the innermost side.

At this moment, Yun Dan didn’t dare to breathe.

However, Xiao Yueqing had no intention of blaming Yun Dan.

He simply placed his hand on Yun Dan’s waist and actually closed his eyes directly.

This move left Yun Dan completely bewildered again.

What exactly was this great demon king trying to do?

“Aren’t you leaving?”

“I don’t want to leave. I’m tired, I’ll rest here for a while.”

But Yun Dan couldn’t fall asleep.

She nudged Xiao Yueqing with her elbow, “Hey, this is Mingyue Manor! Have you lost your mind sleeping here? Dongfang Wuchen gets up very early. If he comes here and discovers you, both you and I will die! Didn’t you want me to be your spy? If I’m exposed directly now, wouldn’t you lose a strategist right away?”

Actually, what Yun Dan was thinking was that this was Mingyue Manor, and if they discovered she knew Xiao Yueqing, she wouldn’t be far from death.

But Xiao Yueqing was acting like a child having a tantrum.

He nuzzled Yun Dan’s back with his head and mumbled, “Don’t want to leave. Tianqing Manor is too cold, it’s warmer here with you.”

“Cold?”

For a moment, Yun Dan thought Xiao Yueqing’s brain might really be fried.

It was almost summer, so hot she could die from the heat—how could it possibly be cold?

However, she belatedly realized that with Xiao Yueqing leaning against her like this, she didn’t feel hot at all.

How strange.

Could he be a human-shaped refrigerator?

“If you don’t go back, won’t Tianqing Manor look for you?”

A light laugh came from behind her ear.

“Hehe, Tianqing Manor belongs to me. If anyone dares to gossip about me behind my back, I’ll kill them. Xiao Yun, if you don’t behave, I wouldn’t mind killing you either and finding a new chess piece.”

After hearing Xiao Yueqing’s words, Yun Dan didn’t continue this topic.

However, she was still puzzled about what happened in the morning, so she pushed Xiao Yueqing and asked him, “This morning I heard Dongfang Wuchen talking with his subordinates. They said the Shu Sect was wiped out. The Shu Sect was the sect that attacked Dongfang Wuchen that day, right? Did you do it?”

“So what if I did?”

Yun Dan felt goosebumps all over her body.

But she still told herself internally that she absolutely couldn’t panic, couldn’t let Xiao Yueqing see anything.

She really hadn’t expected that those people’s guess was correct.

It really was Xiao Yueqing who did it.

“I thought that day’s assassination was arranged by you, just so I could have a chance to meet Dongfang Wuchen.”

Before Yun Dan could finish speaking, she received a knock on the head from Xiao Yueqing.

“You’re so stupid, little disciple. If I really wanted to arrange for you to meet Dongfang Wuchen, I absolutely wouldn’t have sent people to assassinate you both. Didn’t you think you could have died then?”

Yun Dan thought about it and realized this possibility really existed.

After all, swords have no eyes—one careless moment could really result in death.

“But what about you? Why did you rush out to block the sword for Dongfang Wuchen? Without regard for your own life—could it be you really fell in love with him?”

“Master, how can you think of me like that? I don’t know him at all, and we’re not familiar with each other. Just from chatting, it couldn’t be love at first sight, could it? I was trying to warn him, but had bad luck and fell down, which resulted in me getting injured instead.”

However, she didn’t forget to praise Xiao Yueqing.

“But thanks to Master’s medicine, my wound doesn’t hurt anymore. The ointment Master gave me is so much better than anything that Divine Physician Sect disciple had. Thank you, Master.”

Although he knew she was just flattering him.

Xiao Yueqing still felt a sense of accomplishment.

This was something that hadn’t happened in the past twenty-eight years.

He carefully examined Yun Dan.

Pretty was pretty, but not to a degree that would amaze him.

It’s not like he hadn’t seen truly beautiful women before.

In the past, he always felt this person had no abilities and didn’t even know if she could complete her mission.

However, it seemed quite nice to raise such a cute and innocent little disciple.

Just like the little dog his father had given him to raise when he was small, very cute and adorable.

It’s just that later…

“Don’t worry too much about the Shu Sect matter. Tomorrow someone should come to discuss this matter with the Dongfang father and son, and perhaps also about the treasure map. You absolutely must not reveal your master. After all, if you betray me, I’ll kill you directly.”

Yun Dan cooperatively nodded, “Master, rest assured. I’ll definitely act like I know nothing about this matter. Besides, I’m just a guest at Mingyue Manor. They probably won’t let me listen in either. I’ll try to get some information out of Dongfang Wuchen and then pass it on to you.”

Naturally, Xiao Yueqing was very pleased with Yun Dan’s cooperation.

He reached out and patted Yun Dan’s head, saying, “Why does it feel like you never grow up? I’ve raised you for a month, but you still haven’t gained any weight. People who don’t know might think I’m abusing my disciple. You really are just a bean sprout.”

“By the way, Master, your name sounds really nice. Does it have any special meaning?”

Yun Dan felt she absolutely couldn’t continue with that topic anymore, or she’d be driven to death by Xiao Yueqing sooner or later. It would be better to divert attention.

After all, she had been curious about Xiao Yueqing’s name last time.

The setting moon stirs emotions, filling the riverside trees..]
