Was it you that night?

Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Seductive Beauty```

Shen Qinghe couldn't deny her disappointment, but she also understood why Xiao Chen refused to teach her—it was within reason. She would just have to figure it out on her own, considering her unique situation was quite rare.

Though Shen Zhiyao was angry, for Qinghe's sake and her ability to cultivate normally, she unusually humbled herself and persuaded again, "Qinghe is, after all, the Big Senior Brother's Junior Sister. Normally, my father holds the Big Senior Brother in such high regard. Now that he is in a deep sleep, can't the Big Senior Brother temporarily take my father's place and teach Qinghe a bit?"

Xiao Chen remained unmoved, without glancing to the side, "I'm too busy."

Shen Zhiyao, already irritable, couldn't bear it any longer and slammed the table as she stood up, "Xiao Chen, you have time to accompany Nan Sheng, that flirtatious woman, yet you claim to have no time to teach Qinghe—isn't that blatantly unfair?"

Her roar drew the attention of everyone present, yet Xiao Chen was still unaffected.

Shen Qinghe hurriedly pulled Shen Zhiyao to sit down, "Elder Sister, don't get worked up. I can cultivate on my own."

It wasn't a big deal; she could formally cultivate once Elder Shen woke up. For now, if she re

Such beauty was truly distracting, and she didn't understand what exactly the situation was now.

Before, although Dongfang Wuya had been watching her, it was not as direct as it was now. Once he sat beside her, all the cultivators present turned their attention towards them.

She was not used to being the center of so much attention, her face burning hot, as red as a fiery cloud, her earlobes seeming to drip blood, she stammered, "Do you, Mr. Wuya, need something?"

Dongfang Wuya saw how red Shen Qinghe's face had become and secretly thought how much this little girl must like him to turn so shy upon his approach?

Subtly, he moved a bit further away from her, cold and aloof, reminding her, "You have yet to call me uncle-master."

This was his way of reminding her of his seniority—that she couldn't covet his body, and he had no interest in hers.

However, he couldn't bear to see her bullied by others, as her life was saved by him. He had decided to help her this one time, to show Xiao Chen that without him, her future would only be better!

"Uncle-master," Shen Qinghe called out weakly, hoping Dongfang Wuya would leave quickly.

The place was filled with Mr. Wuya's fanboys and fangirls, including Shen Zhiyao. Shen Zhiyao had been pinching her arm the whole time, growing more forceful as her excitement mounted. As soon as Shen Qinghe called out uncle-master, Shen Zhiyao's pinch grew even stronger, which left her speechless.

Dongfang Wuya nodded in satisfaction, "Mm, good child."

Shen Qinghe: ...

Seeing Shen Qinghe's subdued reaction and her lack of initiative in building a rapport with him, Dongfang Wuya kindly reminded her, "You can come to me with any problems or difficulties you have."

Shen Qinghe obediently replied, "Okay."

In fact, she didn't dare to ask Dongfang Wuya for help. He was also one of the male leads, and although this man had saved her life, she couldn't be sure what the future would hold. It was better to keep her distance from Mr. Wuya.

Furthermore, such a lofty figure, how could she dare to bother him with every little issue?
