A small independent cultivator without any sect or school, but made a deal with the Heavenly Dao

Qian Yao didn't expect that before Si Yunzhou said anything, her senior brother jumped up and disagreed first.

She directly defended herself, "Brother, this is my own business. No matter what Daoyou Zhou looks like, he is still my husband, and I don't dislike him."

Pei Cangli wanted to laugh when he heard this. He hadn't even agreed yet, but he was already insisting on it. He was worthy of being a member of the Qian family.

She whispered to Si Yunzhou, "Friend Si, I won the bet this morning." She told him not to trust her judgment.

Si Yunzhou's somewhat helpless voice came, "Okay, since you won, I am willing to admit defeat and accept your punishment."

"Forget about the punishment. Just buy something on the street and give me a small gift."

Sun Shang was still trying to argue, "Junior sister, you've only been with him for one day, how can you be sure that he is your destined one?"

"Brother, Brother Zhou is not my destined one, could it be that you are?"

"Junior sister, why can't I be your destined one? We are all cultivators. I have been in the Qian family for so many years, and you know me inside and out. How can the friendship we have had over the years not be as good as that of a newcomer like him?"

"Shang'er, okay, let's not talk about that today. My dear nephew Zhou, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"Master Qian, what are you talking about? Fellow Daoist Sun is a man of character and can understand. However, Miss Qian and I cannot get married for the time being. I must first heal my junior brother's injury before I can consider other things."

"I swore this in front of Master before I left, so I will not consider anything else until Junior Brother's injury is healed."

Pei Cangli took the opportunity to perform, pulling Si Yunzhou's sleeve and saying, "Brother, it's all my fault that I delayed your important life event. It's you who is holding you back."

The head of the Qian family was more optimistic about Si Yunzhou. He looked at him approvingly and said, "Nephew Zhou, I was right about you. You are such a kind and righteous person. I will be relieved if Yao'er follows you in the future."

"Master Qian, thank you for your compliment."

When Sun Shang saw that he still had a chance, he immediately calmed down and sat there thinking about countermeasures.

The meal ended with several people harboring ulterior motives. After the meal, they arranged houses. Qian Yao wanted to give one to Si Yunzhou and one to Pei Cangli, but Si Yunzhou refused on the pretext that he had to take care of his injured junior brother.

They could only arrange a larger room for the two of them, which was not far from Qian Yao's yard, making it convenient for her to go find Si Yunzhou.

The servant of the Qian family is quite discerning and knows how to please his master.

Pei Cangli and Si Yunzhou returned to the room and set up the formation, thinking that their hearts would still ache tonight.

Pei Cangli said, "Friend Si, today is the first night we will stay at Qian's house. I will be the one keeping watch. You can rest first."

After saying that, without waiting for Si Yunzhou to answer, he took a stool and sat next to the table.

"Cang Li, do you know that your deception skills are not good at all? I know you are afraid of getting me hurt, but you saved me so many times before and I didn't say anything. Don't you want to give me a chance to repay you?"

"Friend Si Dao, you think too much, that's not what I meant."

"Then go to bed and rest obediently. There is no need to keep watch. As for your heartache in the middle of the night, I will accompany you."

"Fellow Si Dao..."

"Cang Li, if you refuse again, I will come and carry you to bed myself."

After saying this, Si Yunzhou's ears had already turned red. God knows how much courage it took for him to say this.

Pei Cangli could only lie on the bed dejectedly. While lying down, she was still wondering when Si Yunzhou was able to control her?

Sure enough, it was not even midnight yet, and a pain even more severe than last night swept over Pei Cangli. He did not move, fearing that he would wake Si Yunzhou up again.

Unfortunately, as they were both cultivators, Si Yunzhou did not sleep at all. He was always paying attention to her movements. When he sensed that her breathing rhythm had changed, he immediately sat up.

He helped her sit up, poured her a cup of spiritual spring water and asked her to drink it. The sweat on Pei Cangli's forehead dripped directly down her cheeks.

"Cang Li, why is it worse than last night? Can you still bear it?"

Pei Cangli nodded. She didn't dare to speak, for fear that once she opened her mouth she would expose her teeth that were clenched tightly in pain.

Looking at the handkerchief that was already torn by Pei Cangli's hand, Si Yunzhou held her hand again. Since he couldn't relieve her pain, he would feel her pain together.

Pei Cangli looked at Si Yunzhou and shook her head, continuing to hold the handkerchief tightly, not daring to let go. She knew that she was in too much pain tonight and would definitely scratch Si Yunzhou, and the wound would only be deeper than yesterday.

But Si Yunzhou moved gently and carefully, as if he were treating a treasure, removing her fingers from the handkerchief one by one and then placing them in his own hand.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s too painful, but Pei Cangli’s willpower is lower than before, and he can’t resist Si Yunzhou’s gentle attack at all.

Soon another round of pain came and Pei Cangli fainted. She only remembered that before she fainted, Si Yunzhou's hand was pinched by her and blood was flowing out.

Si Yunzhou simply dealt with the blood and ignored the wound on his hand.

Seeing Pei Cangli fainted from the pain, Si Yunzhou originally planned to put her on the bed, hoping that she would feel better lying down.

Unfortunately, as soon as she was put down, Pei Cangli's body unconsciously shrank into a ball, as if someone was knocking on her heart.

Si Yunzhou could only hold her like he did last night, holding her with one hand and holding her from behind with the other hand to prevent her from slipping.

Originally Si Yunzhou was a little shy, feeling that he was taking advantage of her, but after seeing this posture, Pei Cangli felt better and didn't think too much about it.

While Pei Cangli was still asleep, Si Yunzhou used his spiritual power to simply treat the wound on his hand. Otherwise, when Cangli woke up tomorrow morning and saw it, he would only feel more guilty.

The next morning, when Pei Cangli woke up, one of her hands was holding Si Yunzhou's hand. The wound didn't seem that obvious. She clearly saw his hand bleeding before she fainted last night. Did she see it wrong?

And the other hand actually reached around from behind and was hugging Si Yunzhou's waist, while she hugged him tightly, pressing against his heart.

What did she do last night? Why did her hands go to the back? And why did she hug Si Yunzhou?

Pei Cangli wanted to continue pretending to be unconscious. She didn't want to face this embarrassing scene. She had just rejected someone not long ago, and now she was hugging him tightly. Wasn't she shameless?

Who can tell her now, how should she face Si Yunzhou next? Is it because she didn't get married in her last life, so she has become a bad woman in this life?

Closing her eyes, Pei Cangli planned to continue pretending to be unconscious. She didn't want to face this socially dead scene at all. Let the thunder come again and kill her at the same time.

"Cang Li, although I also want to continue staying here with you, if we don't leave, the Qian family will become suspicious."

Hearing Si Yunzhou's gentle voice, Pei Cangli quickly got up from his arms, then lay on the bed, covered his face with a quilt and said, "Friend Si, I don't feel well today, so I won't go out for now."

"Cangli, where do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want me to help you take a look?"

"No, just get out now."

Listening to the muffled sound under the quilt, Si Yunzhou was sure that Pei Cangli was shy and therefore did not dare to see him.
