“I have never ignored my own feelings!” Chu Yang said heavily. “But when things have developed to this point, what can I do?”
Feng Yuru frowned slightly.
Indeed, even if both of them had feelings for each other, and even if Chu Yang planned to come back for you, Wu Qianqian had already promised herself to another. What could Chu Yang do about it?
However, why did Wu Qianqian still have such deep feelings for Chu Yang?
In Feng Yuru's view, this was something that should not be. It wasn't that Chu Yang shouldn’t feel this way, but rather that it was her own disciple who shouldn't!
You are already someone else's wife! And you have verbally promised someone else. You've even told Chu Yang face to face, so why are you still clinging to him? A married woman... yet entangled with another man?
Even if you were deeply in love before, you shouldn't be entangled like this anymore. But Wu Qianqian clearly had not let go... it was still the same as before.
Yet, her disciple should absolutely not be that kind of shameless woman!
But why was that?
Yue Lingxue felt a headache coming on.
So strange!
Chu Yang also sighed, his throat moving as he swallowed several times, and said hoarsely, “Now that we've reached this point, the senior should understand... Hehe, bringing up old matters now with Senior Sister listening by my side, I probably shouldn't say it so bluntly, but unfortunately, these words have been stuck in my heart for a long time, like a fishbone in my throat—I just needed to get it out!”
“I am a man, and I consider myself to have feelings and loyalty!” Chu Yang forced a smile, but his eyes grew a bit fierce. “It’s not just women who have dreams! Men also have their own dreams.”
“However, when I see the woman I've grown fond of about to marry someone else, and both of them are willing participants, and that person is my good brother... what do you expect me to do?”
Chu Yang chuckled, “What else can I do but escape?”
“What else can I do?”
“At that time, I couldn’t even give a promise!”
“Now, when the wind sovereign asks me why? Hehe… I understand your concern for your disciple. Chu Yang forced a bitter smile, his expression somewhat tragic. “Should I go and snatch my good brother's wife and say, 'This is my woman?'”
“Not to mention, she is the revered empress!”
“I’ve been hesitant to say this before, and I felt awkward about it,” Chu Yang said deeply. “But looking at today’s situation, if I don’t speak out, the wind sovereign will probably keep me here.”
He looked up lightly. “Actually, the wind sovereign wants to kill me. No matter what, you want to kill me, don’t you? First, to strengthen Elder Sister Wu's resolve, and second, you just don’t like me. I can sense the killing intent from the wind sovereign.”
He smiled. “This is understandable. If I were in your place, I would feel the same. After all, a newly started disciple with exceptional talents could likely surpass me in the future; such a bright future would be too regrettable if they married and had children now.”
The coldness in Feng Yuru’s eyes gradually faded, replaced by a sense of appreciation and confusion.
“Very good.” Feng Yuru smiled faintly. “Your perceptions are sharp and sensitive. You assess the situation exceptionally well; your strategies and intelligence are quite adept... you can be considered a rising star of this generation.”
She spoke softly, “Earlier, I truly wanted to kill you, but now I’ve changed my mind. I only ask you this: Are the words you’ve just spoken from your heart?”
Chu Yang forced a bitter smile. “I wouldn’t go so far as to deceive myself. Besides, since things have come to this, what does it matter whether it’s true or false? At this point, do you think the wind sovereign believes there’s a need for such lies?”
Feng Yuru laughed.
Turning to Wu Qianqian, she asked, “Qianqian, what’s going on?”
Wu Qianqian's expression became complex and sweet. She glanced at Chu Yang, her cheeks flushed, and said, “Master, the reasons behind this... are complicated, hard to explain. Moreover, it involves others' matters. One day, Chu Yang... will know.”
