Jun Shiyan let out a low laugh and reached out to scratch the tip of her nose. “I got it, little baby.”
Ling Sheng mumbled to herself. She was not a baby!
Third Master had said that she had probably come to this time period because of the lit aromatherapy candles. When the candles extinguished, she should return then.
However, she did not return even after three days had passed.
“Sometimes, the passage of time is different from your inherent belief in it,” Jun Shiyan explained as he looked at the young lady.
“Does that mean something like ‘a day in heaven equals a year in the living world’?” Ling Sheng reacted quickly.
Jun Shiyan nodded and looked at her with an indulgent gaze. “Yes, that’s about it. However, I’m not sure how long it will take either. When the candles over there finish burning, you can go back.”
If he had not guessed wrong, the candles of this era had brought her here. It was like having a dream. After waking up from the dream, all she had done was sleep. The sun would rise, and it would not affect her at all.
“Then, what are you doing here?” Ling Sheng frowned.
The Third Master should still be a child now. Why was he already so grown-up?
“What do you think?” Jun Shiyan smiled.
“You’re…” Ling Sheng came to a realization instantly. “You’re here to matchmake my parents?”
Jun Shiyan nodded in admiration and tapped on the tip of the young lady’s nose lightly. “Your parents don’t have any opportunities together either. If I weren’t here, the two of them would have missed each other.”
Ling Sheng said, “Then, exactly why did the two of them break up back then? They obviously still care about each other. Why did things end up like this?”
Jun Shiyan listened to her yammering on. He only knew what happened at this moment and not what would happen in the future. However, he knew that two people who loved each other deeply could not forget each other so easily.
“Then, aren’t my parents like the two of us?” When Ling Sheng said that, she felt a little upset inside. “But since they’re not fated to meet, how did they get together and give birth to me?”
“The world in this book has been revised countless times. The content had already been revised when you were reading the book. If you look at it again now, you’ll find that the content is still changing continuously.” Jun Shiyan heard her mention the two of them. “Have you met Ji Xing?”
“Yes.” Ling Sheng nodded vigorously. “Is he a good or bad person? Is the matter really like he said?”
After listening to Ling Sheng’s recount, Jun Shiyan frowned. “That’s more or less the gist. However, he was lying to you when he said not to let Si Chengluo and Song Yiyan awaken.”
Ling Sheng clenched her small fists angrily, bearing an indignant expression that said ‘I just knew it!’. “He’s indeed a liar! He even tried to scare me. He said that if Song Yiyan and Si Chengluo were awoken and discovered by the trash fish, we would all die.”
“Don’t worry. When I see him, I’ll definitely punish him and seek revenge for you. How dare he lie to you? He has a death wish.” Jun Shiyan played along, the expression in his eyes growing gentler. However, he added immediately, “However, he did this to protect Song Yiyan as well. Once she awakens, she might go and find him.”
“Is Song Yiyan that capable?” Ling Sheng thought of the little white bunny who was always quick to cry. No, that’s not right. After she awakens, she should be quite impressive.
“She’s different from you. She’s disobedient and has a fiery temper too. Back then, to cooperate with our plan, Ji Xing schemed against her without her consent and got her into the book. If she finds out, she’ll chase him to the ends of the earth and kill him,” Jun Shiyan said casually.
Ling Sheng asked, “You mean I’m very obedient?”
Jun Shiyan had always known that women liked to twist things out of context. He looked at her and said, “Then, why didn’t you say that I also meant that you have a good temper and are gentle?”
Ling Sheng glared at him. “What about Si Chengluo then? What’s his relationship with me?”
Jun Shiyan said, “He’s your younger brother.”
Ling Sheng’s eyes widened in disbelief. When she had been saved by Si Chengluo on the stage, he had called her ‘Big Sister’. “Surely, we’re not biologically related, right?! Why do I feel like he holds other thoughts about me?”
Jun Shiyan paused for a moment. “He’s your half-brother. Your parents passed away early, and you brought him up. His feelings for you are deeper than ordinary younger brothers toward their sisters. Before you met me, his possessiveness was stronger.”
“Then, what about after I met you?” Ling Sheng let out a cough. Seems like they did have some sort of biological relationship? As siblings from the same mother, they were indeed related by blood.
“He surrendered to my charm, so naturally, he handed you over to me.” Jun Shiyan’s narrow eyes were full of sparkling laughter.
Of course, he was beaten into surrendering!
Morality would not allow him to covet his own biological older sister!
Neither would he ever agree to him coveting his woman!
Look at how well-behaved he was now, after he was put in his place. He would do whatever he was told to do. He definitely had no objections, especially when it came to matters regarding his sister. He would always step forward, even if he was told to die for her.
“Liar.” Ling Sheng could tell from his expression that it definitely wasn’t that simple.
Judging from Si Chengluo’s sudden transformation both times, he definitely wasn’t a good, obedient child. He was a sinister and obsessive kind of person.
…
Huo Ci did not skip class. After returning to the classroom, he leaned against the chair and slept. His feet were propped on the table like some big shot.
The atmosphere in the class was very strange. No one dared to breathe loudly and everyone moved with utmost care like they were afraid to provoke him.
The news had already spread in school that Brother Ci’s girlfriend, that new little beauty, had left with another man!
They did not know which blind man had the guts to touch Brother Ci’s woman. He must be tired of living.
Until the last class of the afternoon, the teacher was teaching on the podium. The class was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Then, she saw Demon King Huo, who was sleeping, rush out of the classroom after letting out an irritated curse.
The teacher only took a calm look before continuing with the class. Who was that? The little tyrant of the capital. Even if the principal came, he would not dare to control him, let alone a teacher like her.
Upon seeing him leave with a murderous look, how could the lackey sitting in the back row let his boss go out alone? After informing the teacher, he threw a meaningful look and five to six boys in the class followed him out.
Lu Yubai had been called out by a lackey, who had said that there was a problem. Sixth Brother might have gone to find Jun Shiyan to get his girl back. He told Lu Yubai to quickly talk to him. When Lu Yubai ran over, he happened to see Huo Ci get on the motorcycle and stopped him hurriedly. “Sixth Brother, what are you going there for?”
Was he really going to find Third Master Jun for a little girl? The little girl had already said that she was Third Master Jun’s wife. What could he do even if he went?
She had only called him ‘Dad’ before. Did he really regard himself as her father?!
“Why would I go to Third Master Jun? I said I was going to find her and get my phone back.” Huo Ci let out a cold laugh. After putting on his safety helmet, he looked handsome and domineering. He reached his leg out and kicked Lu Yubai. “Scram!”
