Everyone's all smiles on the surface but secretly cunning, but the junior sister only wants to

Upon hearing a sound, Jiang Shiliu immediately darted out of the house like a happy little rabbit. At the same time, her third senior brother, Song Shiyue, also happened to turn his gaze in their direction, and their eyes met in mid-air.

For a moment, time seemed to freeze. They stared at each other silently, neither uttering a word, simply standing there motionless. An unsuspecting observer might have thought they were playing some kind of mysterious game of "statues"!

Just then, a figure descended from the sky—it was Yun Che, who had just returned to Tianyan Peak. Looking at the two locked in a stalemate, he asked with a puzzled expression, "What are you two doing? Why are you both frozen in place like you're under a spell?" He then smiled and walked towards Jiang Shiliu, gently patting her head. Turning to Song Shiyue, he introduced her, "Little Shiliu, come here, this is your third senior brother, Song Shiyue. Shiyue, this is your junior sister, Jiang Shiliu. You all should get along well from now on!"

Song Shiyue's eyes quickly regained their clarity, and a bright smile bloomed on his face. He hurriedly cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, Master! We did receive the message you sent to your disciples before, but at the time, we found it hard to believe and even mistook it for a joke. That's why we were standing there dumbfounded."

Upon hearing this, Yun Che shook his head helplessly and sighed deeply: "Sigh...you brat, do you really think of your master as someone who loves to joke around? Your master is not like your grandmaster, who always likes to fool his own disciples!"

Hearing this, Song Shiyue scratched his head sheepishly, smiled apologetically, and quickly explained, "So that's how it is. It seems that I have indeed misunderstood Master. Please don't blame me, Master." Then, he turned his gaze to Jiang Shiliu beside him, bowed slightly, and said politely, "Greetings, Junior Sister. I am Song Shiyue. I hope you will take good care of me in the future."

Upon seeing this, Jiang Shiliu's face immediately lit up with a cheerful smile. She gave a light bow and replied crisply, "Greetings, Third Senior Brother!" In her heart, she was secretly delighted: This Third Senior Brother seemed gentle and kind, and appeared to be easy to get along with!

At this moment, Yun Che smiled and looked at the two of them, suggesting, "Alright, alright, you two little ones, stop standing here chatting. Shi Yue, you've just returned, you probably haven't eaten yet, right? How about we go and have dinner together?"

“Yes, Master.” Song Shiyue nodded, then looked at Jiang Shiliu, “Junior Sister, let’s go.”

"Okay!" Jiang Shiliu responded, skipping and hopping along with them towards the dining hall. Along the way, Yun Che and Song Shiyue chatted incessantly, while Jiang Shiliu listened curiously from the side, occasionally chiming in with a few words, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

"Ah! Oh no! I completely forgot something so important! I completely forgot to invite Second Senior Brother and Eldest Senior Sister to dinner with us!" Jiang Shiliu exclaimed, her hurried steps faltering as she approached the dining hall entrance, then abruptly stopped, frozen in place as if struck by lightning. She raised her hand and slapped her forehead hard, turning to Yun Che with a look of utter regret, and cried out urgently, "Master, what should we do? Should I run back and call them?! If Second Senior Brother and Eldest Senior Sister miss dinner, I'll be a sinner!"

Yun Che frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said slowly, "It was indeed my oversight that I didn't inform them in advance. But it's alright, I have a communication jade pendant, I can contact them directly and ask them to come as soon as possible. Let's go in first to get the dishes, find a seat and wait for them." After saying that, he stepped into the dining hall.
