Senior brother, how can you fall for such a beautiful junior brother!

The more Lian Li thought about it, the more embarrassed and ashamed he felt. He lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Yun Huizhou.

Seeing him with his head hung as if he had done something wrong, Yun Huizhou, who had originally wanted to take the things and leave, felt softened in his heart, but became even more annoyed.

This person did nothing wrong. At least when he was sober, he always took care of his emotions and behaved as usual.

But this is what annoyed Yun Huizhou. It was obviously he who had the problem, but he made the other party be so cautious.

There was silence in the room. Just as Lian Li was thinking about how to break the awkward silence, his stomach suddenly made a growling sound.

Although the silence was broken, Lian Li felt even more embarrassed.

He touched his belly, mustered up the courage to look up, only to see Yun Huizhou already walking up to him.

Lian Li looked at him and whispered, "Yun Huizhou, I was drunk before, and I may have done some strange things and said some strange things. Don't take it to heart. When you are drunk, you will always say some nonsense."

Yun Huizhou had a complicated expression and said, "But there is a saying that the truth comes out when you are drunk."

Lian Li suddenly felt guilty. He actually roughly understood the logic behind why Yun Huizhou wanted to stick to him after getting drunk but didn't allow Yun Huizhou to touch him.

Because I like the other person, I want to hold him/her back and not let him/her leave, but I also know that the other person is female, so I cannot be too close to him/her, otherwise I would be taking advantage of him/her without knowing it.

When a person is drunk and not sober, all the entanglements and contradictions in his consciousness are reflected in his behavior. Fortunately, his behavior is contradictory and strange enough that he can explain it away by saying he is drunk.

Fortunately, he didn't just hug Yun Huizhou and kiss her, or confess his feelings directly.

Otherwise, he would really be too ashamed to see Yun Huizhou.

"I...maybe I was just talking nonsense after drinking." Lian Li said in a low voice.

His behavior was so strange and his words were so strange, but it was okay to say he was talking nonsense. Thinking of this, Lian Li felt a little more at ease.

Yun Huizhou lowered his eyes and looked at him, not wanting to dwell on whether what he said after drinking was what was hidden in his heart or just nonsense.

He wanted to speak his mind, but for the first time he felt afraid that he could not even maintain the current relationship.

But it was really not his style to be so cautious, and he hadn't thought clearly about what to say.

Should I just tell Lian Li that I think I like the way you dress up as a woman?

He felt that if he said it directly, Lian Li might get really angry because of his sometimes bad temper.

And, most importantly, when he looked at Lian Li wearing men's clothes, he would subconsciously soften his heart.

He was a little confused about what was going on with him.

Lian Li saw Yun Huizhou come back without saying anything for a long time, so he reached out and tugged at the hem of his clothes.

Yun Huizhou came back to his senses and looked down at him: "Yeah. Uncle Master went out. I don't know what he went to do. We will prepare to go back after he comes back."

Seeing that Yun Huizhou changed the subject, Lian Li didn't bother about what happened after he got drunk. He climbed down from the bed and was about to tell Yun Huizhou what he had heard from Master Dong about the things in the Spiritual Sect.

Just when he wanted to change the topic completely and ease the awkward atmosphere, Yun Huizhou spoke again.

His voice was a little hesitant: "When you were helping me get my clothes, did you see the book?"

Although Yun Huizhou asked this, he knew in his heart that Lian Li must have seen the book, but he didn't want to say it directly. He wanted to see Lian Li's reaction after he mentioned this matter.

"Book?" Lian Li looked puzzled: "What book?"

Lian Li's reaction was completely beyond Yun Huizhou's expectations, and he couldn't help but suspect that Lian Li was pretending to be stupid on purpose.

But seeing Lian Li's confused expression, it didn't seem fake. Yun Huizhou was a little unsure. Could it be that he really didn't see it?

That shouldn't be the case. He put the book in the bag that contained the clothes. If it was Lian Li who took the clothes and Lian Li who sorted his things, it is impossible that Lian Li didn't see it.

Even though he knew that it was more likely that Lian Li was pretending, he couldn't help but ignite a glimmer of hope in his heart. Maybe he really didn't see it. Maybe Lian Li really didn't know anything?

Were those strange behaviors before just coincidences?

He couldn't help but speak in more detail: "The clothes I'm wearing now were placed in the same bag, and I've been carrying them on the ice. Did you bring these clothes?"

"I took it." Lian Li said, "I really didn't see any books when I took it. I was the one who sorted out your other things. Apart from the Beauty List that I put in your bag, I didn't see any other books."

"Are you sure?" Yun Huizhou looked at him steadily, seeking confirmation again.

"I'm sure." Lian Li said with certainty and then asked him, "Could it be that we left Ta Bing outside when we entered the Spiritual Sect and Ta Bing accidentally lost it? Is it a very important book? How about we ask our master uncle to accompany us back to look for it while he's here?"

Yun Huizhou kept staring at Lian Li's expression, not missing any details.

Lian Li is a very simple person. Yun Huizhou knows it well. If he really wants to judge Lian Li's expression to determine whether he is lying, he can still make a judgment with a high degree of accuracy.

However, during the entire process, there was really no abnormality in Lian Li's expression and tone of voice.

This made Yun Huizhou relax his tense mood, and he finally felt at ease.

After confirming that Lian Li really hadn't seen the book, he smiled and said, "It's not an important thing. If it's lost, it's lost. There's no need to look for it."

Lian Li saw him smile, observed his expression, and felt relieved when he knew that he was no longer angry.

He jumped off the bed and sat down at the table, patted the seat next to him and said, "Come here quickly, I'll tell you about the origin of Senior Sister Qu and the Spiritual Cult."

Yun Huizhou saw that he had regained his energy and threw away the mess in his mind. Since Lian Li didn't see it, he would just leave it at that for now.

He always has to think things over.

He came and sat down next to Lian Li, pretending to listen attentively.

Yun Huizhou was actually not curious about this matter, otherwise he would have gone there with Lian Li and Zhao Honglan.

But since Lian Li wanted to tell him, he would not spoil the fun.

Lian Li repeated everything that the East Island Master said, and said, "It feels quite different from the story I made up. It's not as bloody as I made it up."

"However, I always feel that they will not give up so easily." Yun Huizhou thought about it, and then felt that this was not something he should worry about. Qu Tingquan and Zhao Honglan had already suffered a loss once, and if they fell into trouble again, there would be nothing he could do.

Anyway, even if he gets tricked next time and goes to look for someone again, he will definitely not bring Lian Li with him.
