After being forced into marriage, the metaphysical master became the darling of the richest family.

Chapter 288

Lu Hui glanced suspiciously at Si Tang, then at An Jiuxi.

He knew Si Tang's personality all too well.

They've probably set their sights on this promising talent!

When Lu Hui came, he also thought this girl was a promising talent.

But upon first meeting her, I felt that An Jiuxi was too cold and ruthless, and full of arrogance.

If Si Tang really takes him as a disciple, he'll probably cause a lot of headaches in the future!

“Yes, Yuwei has already made arrangements for you, so why did you go to Shuiyun Residence?” Lu Hui, who had been angry just moments before, stepped forward and patted Si Tang on the shoulder.

A dark glint flashed in Si Tang's eyes, which he subtly avoided. "I'm willing."

This eccentric personality made An Jiuxi take a second look at him.

Seeing the old man's angry and glaring expression, she chuckled to herself.

His master's face flashed through his mind, and then he thought of the figure he had just seen, and his expression darkened.

Even the smile had vanished.

Could it be... no, it can't be my master.

If Master really wanted to harm her, why would he wait until now?

She had been learning martial arts from her master since she was a child. If her master really wanted to kill her, he would have plenty of opportunities!

Correct!

It can't be the master!

An Jiuxi was lost in thought and did not hear the sounds outside.

When she came to her senses, Si Tang stared at her with a smile, "Then your nod means you agree. I'll go back with you in a bit."

"what?"

An Jiuxi's bewildered reaction made Si Tang's lips twitch.

So this girl didn't hear his passionate speech at all?

Upon seeing this, Yuan Xiaofei stepped forward and repeated what Si Tang had just said.

"Please wait a moment, I want to check this area again." An Jiuxi pointed to the black ash that Song Chuntao had turned into when she died, not far away.

There were some things she wanted to look at more closely. Logically speaking, Song Chuntao wouldn't be able to absorb that yin energy for no reason.

It's unclear who was behind this!

"Row."

Si Tang also found Song Chuntao's sudden madness somewhat strange.

An Yuwei, who was standing aside unnoticed, had a hint of nervousness flash in her eyes when her gaze fell on the pile of black ash.

“I’ll go, Miss An, you should rest.” An Yuwei stepped forward first, preparing to approach the pile of black ash.

Unexpectedly, someone reached out and stopped him.

Upon recognizing that the person blocking her way was Shi Wenfu, An Yuwei couldn't help but curse inwardly!

This is a contemporary essay!

Ever since she went to the capital with Madam Xia, this person has not only given her a cold shoulder, but has also hindered her at every turn!

Shi Wenfu's cold gaze swept over them, "Since it was An Jiuxi who did it, it's best if she does it, in case any residual spiritual energy causes unnecessary wounds."

An Jiuxi stepped forward and smiled calmly, "An Yuwei, you weren't this enthusiastic before."

Meeting her meaningful gaze, An Yuwei had no choice but to hide her thoughts.

Take a step back to create distance.

An innocent expression appeared on her face. "I just wanted to help you, Miss An. Why are you being so aggressive towards me?"

Looking so aggrieved, anyone who didn't know better would think An Jiuxi had done something to her.

"Yuwei, please come back. You're trying so hard to help, but others don't appreciate it!"

Lu Hui snorted coldly, his words laced with sarcasm.

An Yuwei smiled apologetically, lowered her head, and returned to her teacher's side.

Si Tang glanced at the displeased little girl and lowered his voice, "Don't take it to heart, Lu Hui is just that kind of person with a bad temper."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Lu Hui threw out another cold snort.

Perhaps it was because there were many people around that she controlled her temper and didn't argue with Si Tang.

"I see."
