Chapter 1029: Chapter 1029: Masters Can Be Shy Too

Objectively speaking, Qin Sisi can understand Shuo Yu’s feelings; being closed in his own world for too long, it won’t be easy for him to co out, but if one has the will to do difficult things, they should also have the courage to try.

Qin Sisi suddenly shifted the topic: "Do you still rember the first piece you forged?"

Shuo Yu was stunned for a mont, and after seriously recalling for a while, he said, "I rember, it was a longsword."

Beginners practicing forging usually start with longswords as their shape is simple and not highly demanding technically, but the blade is straight, which tests one’s temperant during the process of shaping.

Qin Sisi nodded and smiled as she asked: "Was that longsword as exquisite, finely crafted, sharp as ever, cutting gold like jade, and slicing iron like mud, just like your current works?"

Shuo Yu also laughed: "Ha... how could that be possible? Who could produce a masterpiece the first ti? That longsword was terrible, the blade wasn’t even straight, and it even had notches, really embarrassing."

Qin Sisi continued in a gentle tone: "That’s right, all beginnings are difficult, no one can do well at the start. You could beco the greatest forging master in the Demon Sacred Realm not just because of your talent, but I believe you must have put in a lot of effort as well."

These words touched Shuo Yu deeply; after achieving fa and success, everyone praises him as a genius, but he actually dislikes such praises, which seem to attribute all his capabilities to his talent, thereby negating the efforts he put in.

How can there be so many casual geniuses in this world? There may be talent, but it’s more about his own hard work and efforts.

Seeing Shuo Yu’s expression soften, Qin Sisi seized the mont and said: "Actually, it’s the sa with ordinary things like eating, walking, speaking; at the beginning, everything needs to be learned. The more you do it, the more proficient and better you beco."

Shuo Yu then understood Qin Sisi’s real intention; she was encouraging him to speak more, not to be afraid of ridicule, for when he speaks fluently enough, the ridicule will naturally disappear.

Shuo Yu self-deprecated inwardly; he understood the principle but deliberately held back. He was twice Qin Sisi’s age yet did not see things as clearly as a young girl.

"Thank you... you." Shuo Yu finally spoke up, and this was the first ti he spoke in front of soone other than Ru Lin.

Qin Sisi smiled; he slightly bowed his head, his eyes flitted about, and he said seemingly casually: "Actually, Teacher Ru Lin is both beautiful and gentle, and many male teachers at Heavenly Magic God’s Castle fancy her."

Such a subtle utterance dramatically changed Shuo Yu’s expression, as if facing a great enemy, his hands gripping the edges of the wheelchair, the veins on the back of his hands bulging.

"She..." Shuo Yu wanted to know how Ru Lin dealt with it, but lacking fluency in language, he didn’t know how to express that.

Shuo Yu’s urgency made Qin Sisi sowhat unbearably compassionate, and she soothed him in a gentle tone: "But it seems that Teacher Ru Lin isn’t interested in any of them."

Shuo Yu then sighed deeply, his complexion improved a bit, he pondered for a mont, pointed at his Seven-stringed Ancient Zither, and asked Qin Sisi: "You... think... I should... what... do?"

A lody on the zither expresses his love, all his feelings for Ru Lin are in the music, but what to do next, he is still anxious and clueless.

Qin Sisi laughed lightly and said: "Master Shuo Yu, Teacher Ru Lin has been waiting for you for decades, do you still want her to continue waiting? Even if you have centuries of lifespan, ti should not be wasted like this."

Shuo Yu hesitantly asked: "You an... to..."

Qin Sisi stared into Shuo Yu’s eyes and clearly uttered two words: "Propose."

Shuo Yu’s body jolted. Deep down, he already had a vague idea, but having Qin Sisi point it out so abruptly left him too excited to believe it.

Shuo Yu averted his gaze, bashfully lowered his head, and his hands opened and closed, opened and closed again, his cheeks flushing with a rosy tint.

This genius forgemaster, who had lived for decades and renowned throughout the entire Demon Sacred Realm, was actually made shy by just two words from Qin Sisi.

Propose? Can it really be done? Will she say yes?

Shuo Yu’s heart alternated between feeling like leaves scattered by the wind, fragnted and chaotic, and like surging waves in a violent storm.

Observing his changing expressions, Qin Sisi decided to simply get up and take her leave, realizing that Shuo Yu had invited her over for the sake of Ru Lin, and she had already said everything that needed to be said. Staying further seed pointless as she could offer no additional help, it up to Shuo Yu now. If after all that had been said he still couldn’t make up his mind to act, then his resolve was indeed too frail.

"You..." Seeing Qin Sisi about to leave, Shuo Yu hesitated, many thoughts still unsorted in his mind.

Qin Sisi spoke loudly, "Master Shuoyu, I have said all I needed to say. Happiness is for one to seize. If you think two people must completely match all conditions to be together, then in your eyes, should Ye You and I not be together either?"

Shuo Yu, with a calm deanor, shook his head and said: "You two...if you like each other...that’s good."

Qin Sisi found his answer fairly satisfying, and once more advised, "Since you can be tolerant towards others, why be so harsh on yourself?"

Shuo Yu looked at her thoughtfully, his furrowed brow gradually relaxing.

"I’ll take my leave," Qin Sisi said finally, opening the door and walking out.

Tie Peng still stood strictly outside the door. Seeing Qin Sisi erge, he glanced briefly inside. Shuo Yu nodded at him, and understanding, Tie Peng imdiately summoned people to escort Qin Sisi back to her room.

Xiao ng had been impatiently waiting. As soon as she saw Qin Sisi return, she rushed forward and bombarded her with questions: "Sister Sisi, what did Master Shuoyu want from you? Did he give you any tips on forging? Did he give you a gift?"

Qin Sisi sighed and briefly explained the reason Shuo Yu had summoned her.

It was sowhat sad that after talking for so long with the greatest forgemaster in the Demon Sacred Realm, she forgot to take the opportunity to seek his advice. But then again, given Shuo Yu’s emotional state at the ti, he probably wasn’t in the mood to ntor her.

Xiao ng blinked, "Is that all?"

Qin Sisi nodded, "That’s all."

Xiao ng also sighed and said, "This man is really no fun. If he likes her, he should just go for it. Dodging and hesitating, it’s good that Teacher Ru Lin is so patient. If it were , I would have slapped him and told him to stay cool wherever he is."

Qin Sisi couldn’t help but laugh and cry, yet she largely agreed with Xiao ng’s viewpoint. In the world of relationships, hesitation and an ambivalent attitude are particularly frowned upon. Perhaps while you hesitate, that most sincere love might slowly drift away.
