"Senior Sister, are you implying that my cultivation is too low, or are you complaining about the Abyssal Miasma I carry?" Su Li straightforwardly said, simply curious about the aning behind Su Buyu’s words.
Su Buyu was silent for a mont, looking at Su Li strangely, and forced a smile, "Ah Lee, you’ve misunderstood, how could your sister an that?"
"Seems like I was right." Su Li nodded, pursed her lips, and couldn’t be bothered with Su Buyu’s pretense.
She felt that she had extraordinary talent since childhood, just lacked guidance. She could see through the machinations in people’s hearts very clearly.
Su Buyu’s behavior was definitely bitchy... wait, what does bitchy an?
She had never heard this term before, it seed to suddenly pop up in her mind.
This sort of thing had happened quite a few tis, and Su Li had grown accustod to it, no longer startled.
This world always felt sowhat strange~
Her heart sighed once again.
Su Buyu clutched her chest, showing an uncomfortable expression, and suddenly changed the topic, "Ah Li, I know you don’t like , I also want to give our parents back to you, but... considering that I would never see them again makes my heart ache terribly."
"You’re not suited for that expression at all." Su Li said indifferently.
Observing Su Buyu’s deanor, she disapproved, "Your facial features have a cold rigidity, the persona of a delicate flower doesn’t suit you, it looks odd."
Su Buyu’s sorrowful gaze, was tainted with a touch of embarrassnt and awkwardness by Su Li’s words.
For a mont, the two were silent, an unsettling stillness filled the air.
Fortunately, this awkward mont wasn’t long, a cold snort rescued Su Buyu from the uncomfortable situation.
"Su Li, you’ve grown quite cheeky since you disappeared... she’s my and your father’s biological daughter, if you still recognize us as your parents, then show respect to your sister." Master Zhiyu ca over with two disciples.
Xiaoqing followed behind them, her complexion not looking good. She was signaling Su Li with her eyes.
Upon arriving, Xiaoqing intended to warn the young lady, but Master Zhiyu directly silenced her.
The group stood behind the sea of flowers, listening to Miss and Miss Bu Yu’s conversation.
In truth, Miss hadn’t said anything unpleasant, everything was spoken by Miss Bu Yu.
But people’s hearts are biased, once Miss Bu Yu showed a troubled expression, Master Zhiyu’s aura imdiately beca sowhat dangerous.
Standing behind her, Xiaoqing couldn’t help but tremble, feeling anxious.
What if another conflict arises with Master Zhiyu, and Miss gets punished again?
The worst part is, Master Hao Yuan wasn’t here, there wasn’t even anyone to protect Miss.
Upon hearing the voice, Su Buyu’s eyes filled with tears, joyfully turned her head, and sweetly called out to Master Zhiyu, "Mom, why are you here?"
"If I didn’t co, how would I know you were bullied by Su Li again." Master Zhiyu affectionately held Su Buyu’s hand and comforted, "You treat her as a sister, but she doesn’t treat you as an elder sister."
Su Li: "Master Zhiyu, if seeing soone pitiful makes you think they’re wronged, I can cry for you right now."
As soon as the words fell, crystalline tears filled Su Li’s eyes, beads of brilliance slid down her cheeks, shattered on the ground, just like a broken heart, making people’s hearts tighten.
The tears of a Beauty, delicate and pitiful, evoke tenderness, wishing to personally wipe away the thread of worry between the Beauty’s brows, eagerly offering everything in the world at her feet, just to win a smile from her.
Then it seed that what made her cry was the greatest evil in the world.
Su Buyu was taken aback, eyes wide in surprise.
Su Li’s sorrowful tears were indeed a textbook example of genuine expression.
Even Master Zhiyu couldn’t help but feel a stirring in her heartstrings, questioning inwardly whether she was too harsh earlier.
"Sister, don’t deliberately upset mom." Su Buyu urgently interjected, finally pulling back the attention of those present.
Master Zhiyu was imdiately angered by her wavering heartstrings, "Su Li, you’re becoming more unruly."
"I’ve never taught you such a seductive manner."
Master Zhiyu looked down on won who act weak, she despised such seductive attitudes that evoke pity... this always reminded her of unpleasant mories.
Yet her daughter grew into the very form she despised the most.
Master Zhiyu was trembling with anger, shouted, "Go back and reflect behind closed doors."
Su Li: "What exactly are you all here for?"
"Is it just to make go back and reflect behind closed doors?"
Su Buyu played the understanding gesture properly, one hand soothed Master Zhiyu’s back, the other secretly gestured to Su Li, "Sister, don’t add fuel to the fire, mom’s health deteriorated from giving birth to you, still hasn’t recovered. If her health worsens from anger, the one she worries about is still you."
"So what?"
Seeing Master Zhiyu about to flare up again, Su Buyu gently cald her down, flipped her hand, and a Glazed Lamp appeared upon it.
Her tone turned stiff, seemingly frustrated by Su Li’s refusal to yield, "Previously, I didn’t know the Glazed Lamp was intended for you by uncle, I thought it was for , just casually praised it as beautiful. But mom heard it and thought I liked it, thus wanted to give it to ."
"I truly didn’t know this was sothing you valued... had I known, I wouldn’t want it even if I liked it...."
Speaking until the end, Su Buyu’s voice sank, her tone carried disappointnt.
This indeed made Master Zhiyu profoundly heartbroken.
The girl she treasured for fifteen years, how could she bear seeing her so distressed?
Imdiately, she was furious at Su Li, reached forward, fingers spread, grabbed the lamp into her hand. Originally being pushed by Su Buyu towards Su Li, the Luminous Cup was pulled back by a strong force, directly landing in Master Zhiyu’s hand.
"My East Sea Island’s things, I decide who to give, outsiders have no say in it."
Master Zhiyu directly shoved the Luminous Cup back into Su Buyu’s hand, speaking tenderly, "If mom says it’s yours, then it is."
"Right, years ago your aunt gifted you a Magic Artifact made from Purple Gold Iron Jade, your cultivation is too low to use it, but Bu Yu is about to advance to Golden Core, perfect for use. You take it and give it to Bu Yu."
Su Buyu: "Mom, I can’t... that’s sister’s item, how can I..."
Su Buyu anxiously refused repeatedly, moved by mother’s kindness yet worried that Su Li might get upset.
