Chapter 485: Chapter 485: Childhood Sweethearts
“What?” Xiao Nan didn’t hear what she said clearly. “Sister Yuwei, what kind of man did you ntion?”
“What kind of woman would a man, who is outstanding to a certain extent, like?”
“To a certain extent? What do you an by that?”
“Like… President Bo, for example.”
“President Bo?!”
Xiao Nan was shocked, coming to a realization belatedly. Could Sister Yuwei possibly be fond of President Bo?
To be honest, with Luo Yuwei’s exceptional appearance, even standing beside a top celebrity in the entertainnt industry, she wouldn’t be overshadowed, nor would anyone say she was clinging onto soone else’s fa.
But if that person were President Bo…
“An ordinary man might like a beautiful, gentle woman who is considerate, but a man of President Bo’s esteed status, broad experience, and who is abundantly rich both spiritually and materially, would probably pursue a woman of a higher caliber. Perhaps soone extraordinary or outstanding, soone who has a unique glow about her that he can’t see in others, and that he finds attractive.”
“Extraordinary? Outstanding? A glow?”
Clasping her cup, Luo Yuwei murmured, while Xiao Nan nodded. “So, Sister Yuwei, you need to beco outstanding and rise to a high position to make President Bo notice you.”
Luo Yuwei paused for a mont, her gaze clear as she looked at her. “Xiao Nan, you’re absolutely right.”
Shen Jinyou breezed through three challenges, smooth and flawless, without relying on external help. His remarkable talent won Revered Wen’s heart, who agreed to take him as his disciple. Thus, Shen Jinyou officially beca the first direct male disciple under Sect Leader Revered Wen of the Qiankun Sect, Xia Qingshao’s junior brother.
Next ca two delightful years of the senior sister and junior brother training together at Qiankun Mountain.
During those two years, Shen Jinyou and Xia Qingshao trained together, sparred together, progressed together, sneaked off the mountain to play together, got drunk and admired the moon together, and together did things against the sect rules behind their master’s back.
The seed Xia Qingshao inadvertently gave to Shen Jinyou, which he nad love flower (spoken love), was buried in the ground and tenderly cared for: watered at sunrise and confided in at sunset about the enjoyable tis spent with his senior sister.
Even after joining the Qiankun Sect, Shen Jinyou still couldn’t correct his stamr. To be able to utter a complete sentence to Xia Qingshao, he would rise an hour earlier each day and practice his speech behind the mountain.
Xia Qingshao was mischievous by nature and disliked adhering to conventions. Whenever she caused trouble, Shen Jinyou would dutifully take the fall for her, accepting any punishnt without complaint or regret.
In Shen Jinyou’s world, aside from his foster parents, there was only Xia Qingshao.
The other mbers of the Qiankun Sect privately also said that the two of them were ‘a boy riding a bamboo horse, coming around the bed to play with green plums’ — a match made in heaven.
Before Gu Tianlin appeared, Xia Qingshao thought so too.
Shen Jinyou, with his angelic face and the gentlest disposition, could accommodate all her quirks, doting on her even more than a father would. She was very dependent on and fond of him.
But the appearance of Gu Tianlin made her understand what true fondness was.
This stubborn, proud, and strong character, always opposing her and overpowering her, inevitably captured her attention and aroused her competitive spirit.
In fight after fight, she strangely found herself transitioning from ‘disliking’ him to liking him. Her gaze was often drawn to him, her footsteps unwittingly followed him, and her mood was manipulated by him.
Perhaps, her liking for Shen Jinyou was rely for sothing beautiful, not romantic feelings. With Gu Tianlin, it was true love.
When Xia Qingshao first ntioned Gu Tianlin in front of Shen Jinyou, the perceptive Shen Jinyou sensed sothing was off.
