3211 She didn’t want to give up
While he was deep in thought, he noticed that the man who was sitting and looking out the hall stood up and went outside to greet someone. The great elder raised his eyes to the hall’s door.
“Qianhua.”
The man stepped forward quickly, overjoyed to see Wanyan Qianhua enter. He inspected her from head to toe and asked, “Is your injury getting better? Since it’s been so long since I’ve seen you, I am very worried.”
Wanyan Qianhua acknowledged him with a slight nod of her head. “Thank you for your concern, Brother Xie. I am fine.” She kept her distance from him, and as she walked inside, she looked at the seated middle-aged man.
“Qianhua has met Seventh Uncle.” She saluted the middle-aged man and greeted him.
“Mm.” The middle-aged man looked at her and nodded his head slightly. “It seems that your injuries are pretty much healed.”
Wanyan Qianhua smiled. “It’s all thanks to Insouciant Lord, who looks after me. I wouldn’t have recovered as quickly if it hadn’t been for him.” She nodded to the elder on that side. “Hello, Elder.”
When the middle-aged man heard this, he remarked, “You should return now that your injury has healed. You can’t always disturb the Insouciant Sword Master. We came specifically to pick you up this time.”
“Yes, everyone in the clan is worried about your injury, Qianhua. You should go back with us now that you’ve recovered from your injury.” The man paused and looked at the elder. “This is, after all, the Insouciant Sect. You are not a member of the sect. It is not appropriate to stay here for an extended period of time.”
When Wanyan Qianhua heard this, she smiled. “Seventh Uncle, I can’t go back to the clan with you now.”
“Why?”
Before the middle-aged man even began to speak, the young man eagerly asked, “Qianhua, when we first entered, we overheard many disciples discussing you and the Insouciant Sword Master. Do you know how your reputation will be affected if you continue to stay here?”
“Ahem, ahem.”
The elder, who had been pretending not to listen to them, coughed in embarrassment when he heard this. He set his teacup down and stood up, saying, “So, why don’t you speak first? Please stay here for the night if you are not in a hurry to leave. I’ll ask my disciples to make arrangements for you later.”
With that, the elder smiled, cupped his fists to salute the middle-aged man, and turned away. He was too embarrassed to stay with the guests any longer, afraid of hearing something he shouldn’t hear, which would make him embarrassed.
After the elder left, the middle-aged man looked at Wanyan Qianhua, who was sitting across from him and asked slowly, “Qianhua, you always have your own opinion, and I know you won’t do reckless things. However, what do you intend to do here this time?”
The man looked at her nervously, afraid of hearing something from her that he didn’t want to hear.
Wanyan Qianhua pretty much ignored the young man. “Seventh Uncle, Insouciant Lord saved me,” she said to the middle-aged man. “He is my benefactor. I have to repay his kindness.”
She paused and then said seriously, “Also, there’s no doubt that I’m attracted to Insouciant Lord. For the first time in a long time, I’m interested in a man. I don’t want to give up, even though I know there’s a gap between us and if we get together, we’ll have to face a lot of criticism and challenges.”
Hearing this, the man on the other side seemed to have taken a significant blow.
