My junior sister pretends to be good and deceives people every day

It’s Yan Linghuan.

Hearing the intimate "Qiao Qiao", Yan Zhiqiao suddenly stood up and cast a subtle look towards the outside of the courtyard gate.

Not only Yan Linghuan, but Gu Qingyan, Feng Liyu and Xi Shili also came.

Yan Zhiqiao could clearly feel that the way they looked at her had changed.

Everyone, including Feng Liyu, who had always been wary of her, seemed to be much closer to her.

It seems that the trip to the demon world was very effective.

Yan Zhiqiao's eyes flickered slightly.

The mission was going smoothly, so she should be happy, but for no reason she felt a little bored.

Not very challenging.

It’s more fun to tease the third brother.

Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, Yan Zhiqiao stepped forward to greet them.

"Senior sister, senior brother."

Jiang Ciyuan, who was sitting on the swing chair, came to his senses and clearly felt the incredibly high temperature of his ears and face.

And that unsteady heartbeat...

Jiang Ciyuan took a deep breath, not daring to look at Yan Zhiqiao's figure again, and stood up from the swing chair.

As soon as Yan Linghuan entered the room, she immediately grabbed Yan Zhiqiao and asked about his well-being.

"Qiao Qiao, how do you feel? Are you still feeling unwell?"

"I'm all right."

Yan Zhiqiao looked relaxed, but Yan Linghuan was still worried and pulled her arm over to feel her pulse.

After confirming that her internal breath was normal, the heavy stone that had been weighing on her heart for half a month finally fell to the ground.

The next moment, Yan Linghuan's expression suddenly changed.

Both hands were raised and pinched Yan Zhiqiao's fleshless face as if as punishment.

Yan Zhiqiao's guard suddenly increased, but his watery deer eyes showed a bit of confusion.

"Master...Senior Sister?"

"Yan Zhiqiao!"

The tenderness of the previous second seemed to vanish into thin air, and Yan Linghuan gritted her teeth and read out Yan Zhiqiao's full name.

"Who asked you to give me the artifact?"

Her angry questioning made Yan Zhiqiao really confused.

Her face was pinched, causing her speech to be slightly slurred.

"Then...who should I give it to?"

Whoever holds the artifact will become the target of concentrated attack.

Yan Zhiqiao thought about it and believed that Yan Linghuan was blaming her for forcing the "pressure" on her at that time, so she patiently apologized.

"I'm sorry, Senior Sister... I just wanted you to leave first. I didn't mean to make you... a target."

After these words were spoken, Xi Shili was the first to lose his temper.

He looked at Yan Zhiqiao with a look that was difficult to describe.

"Junior sister, aren't you usually quite smart? Why are you being so stupid right now?"

While he was speaking, Yan Zhiqiao's face was severely ravaged by Yan Linghuan, who was even more angry.

You know what, even though there’s not much meat in it, it feels pretty good.

Yan Zhiqiao: “???”

What else could it be?

He couldn't be angry at her and asked her to take the Sanqing Ding away first, right?

Unfortunately, this is exactly the reason.

Seeing Yan Zhiqiao being ravaged so miserably, Jiang Ciyuan was about to burst into tears. He couldn't bear it, so he quickly rescued him from Yan Linghuan and pulled him to his side.

Yan Zhiqiao pretended to be aggrieved and afraid, and hid behind Jiang Ciyuan. Then he grabbed Jiang Ciyuan's arm and carefully popped his head out from his left side, looking at Yan Linghuan with watery eyes.

"Sister..."

Facing that obedient and bullied look, Yan Linghuan couldn't continue to be angry.

In fact, rather than being angry with Yan Zhiqiao, it would be more accurate to say that she was angry with herself.

It’s useless to be angry at yourself!

Yan Linghuan raised her hand and rubbed her brows, sighing softly.

"Qiao Qiao, I know you wanted to protect me at that time, but you have to understand that your safety is equally important."

Yan Zhiqiao was stunned. He never expected that Yan Linghuan would actually be angry about this.

"But my cultivation is higher than yours..."

She wanted to explain the reason, but was interrupted by Yan Linghuan with a serious face.

"I know, but in the face of danger, it is not your responsibility to take the risk for us."

When Yan Linghuan returned to Dead Moon Mountain and learned that Jiang Ciyuan and Yan Zhiqiao were still alive, she didn't know how fortunate she was.

Then an overwhelming sense of guilt came over me.

Especially to Yan Zhiqiao. Not to mention that the trip to the Demon Realm was all thanks to her, everyone was able to successfully retrieve the artifact.

The fact that she disregarded herself and left her the chance to escape in the moment of crisis was enough to make Yan Linghuan remember it for the rest of her life.

"If you encounter this situation again in the future, you must remember that your first priority is to protect yourself."

Yan Linghuan has always played the role of protector. At that time, she felt that it was natural for the strong to protect the weak.

But when she was suddenly protected by Yan Zhiqiao and even seriously injured Yan Zhiqiao, her thoughts changed and she became hypocritical.

Yan Zhiqiao reacted quickly and couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

Why are the personalities of these protagonists so weird?

One doesn't want her magical power, and the other doesn't want her to save him.

So complicated!

He secretly complained in his heart, but said that Qiao Zhiyuan walked out from behind him and shook his head seriously to refuse.

"I don't agree."

She looked seriously at Yan Linghuan, who had a frown on his face.

"If my cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment stage at that time, would Senior Sister let me take the artifact and leave first?"

Without a doubt, yes.

They have a natural desire to protect the weak.

Their outstanding talents have allowed them to always stand in the position of strength, which has changed their mentality and made their self-esteem very strong.

To the extent that when they suddenly fall into the position of a weak person and are protected by others once, they will feel a huge gap in their hearts and think that they are holding others back.

Seeing someone else get hurt because of this undoubtedly adds to the pressure on my heart.

Seeing that Yan Linghuan remained silent, Yan Zhiqiao spoke again.

"Senior Sister, when you protect others, you also have the right to be protected."

As soon as these words came out, Yan Linghuan's hard yet soft heart seemed to be hit hard by something.

She suddenly understood what Yan Zhiqiao wanted to express.

Whether you are strong or weak, you must learn to accept your own weakness.

Because the world is so big, there will always be someone stronger than you before you reach the top.

Being weak occasionally is not a failure or a mistake. Instead, as long as you adjust your mindset, you will be motivated and become more motivated.

Yan Linghuan suddenly felt that the state that had been stuck in the early Nascent Soul stage for a long time had loosened.

For a moment, the desire to return to Yaofeng to practice reached its peak.

Yan Linghuan suppressed the surging emotions in her heart, pulled Yan Zhiqiao over, and slapped her face again.

"Sister Qiao, I am the one who got paranoid. Thank you."

"I found that my realm has loosened a bit, so I'm going to go back and meditate and practice first!"

After saying this, Yan Linghuan was rarely as calm as usual and left the courtyard in a hurry.

Yan Zhiqiao: “…”

The other four people: "..."

The courtyard was quiet for a moment. Yan Zhiqiao numbly reached out and touched his face which was hurt by being rubbed, then looked at Gu Qingyan and the others.

Although Gu Qingyan, Feng Liyu and Xi Shili were also protected by Yan Zhiqiao, they did not feel it as deeply as Yan Linghuan.

Their mentality is also very stable. They have not fallen into paranoia. They are simply stimulated to practice harder.
