The young man's eyes were firm and fiery. This was the first time Yun Zhitou had experienced such a scene, his face turned red with embarrassment and he didn't know how to react.
Seeing that Yunzhi did not express his attitude directly, Shen Zijin launched a fierce offensive. Yunzhi was confused and finally said those words. "I like you too."
That was Yunzhi's first heartbeat, and also the last time.
In the next three days, although the two expressed their feelings for each other, Yunzhi had no idea how to get along with him, and it was just like normal. Shen Zijin did not show as much enthusiasm as that day, but would meet with Yunzhi in private.
Until the third day, during a magic class, Yunzhi saw Shen Zijin behaving intimately with a junior sister, and they even wielded swords together. Shen Zijin hugged the junior sister tightly the whole time.
Yunzhi couldn't understand his behavior. After Shen Zijin landed, he walked up to him and asked, "You said you liked me a few days ago, why are you hooking up with others now?" Yunzhi didn't. Avoiding people, so many people heard it, and they all looked this way. The junior sister next to him naturally heard what Yunzhi said and looked at Shen Zijin in surprise, wanting him to give an explanation.
Shen Zijin's expression was calm, and he seemed not surprised by the current situation. He stared at Yunzhi's face for a long time, then suddenly laughed, "I said, Taoist friend Yun, if you want to attract my attention, you wouldn't use this method. You say I like you? Are you just dreaming? Can’t you wake up?”
Yunzhi was like a thunderbolt, and she was stunned on the spot. Because she was so shocked, her body lost its response and could not move. She had already realized that she had been tricked. No one else was present when they expressed their feelings to each other that day. After that, they did not have any intimate behavior like ordinary Taoist couples. In the eyes of others, it was not just her who was talking nonsense.
Seeing that Yunzhi did not refute it, others had no intention of providing evidence. They all had their own conclusions in their hearts and began to whisper to each other. Their eyes at Yunzhi became disdainful and scrutinizing.
Yunzhi was not going to argue. She guessed that Shen Zijin had prepared a back-up plan. This was a trap he carefully prepared for himself. The more she talked, the easier it was for him to catch her.
She only said one sentence, without any emotion in her voice, "Why?"
Why do you do this to her? Why treat her like this?
Shen Zijin looked confused, "Why? Are you asking me why I rejected you?" He paused, showed an expression that seemed to understand something, and apologized, "Sorry, I was too straightforward just now. I didn't take into account the girl's emotions. It's really surprising to see you jealous of me and others, but Taoist friend Yun, there is no grass anywhere in the world."
As soon as he finished speaking, the onlookers burst into laughter. The junior sister next to Shen Zijin looked at Yunzhi with a knowing expression, and even looked pitiful. Yunzhi was very famous in the sect, and she recognized it. Yunzhi, she said softly, "Fellow Taoist, forget it. There is no need to struggle with an inappropriate person."
Yunzhi stood silently.
For the first time, Shen Zijin saw an expression of forbearance and surrender on Yunzhi's face. He was calm on the surface, but felt extremely satisfied in his heart. He transmitted the message to Yun Zhi in a way that only he and Yunzhi could hear. Zhi said, "This is just a little joke for you. I didn't expect you to take it seriously. You have to know that in Beizhen Sect, this is not the only way I can deal with you."
"Besides, you have to thank me for being merciful and not really doing anything to you."
After listening to his words, Yunzhi suddenly laughed.
She also sent a message to him, "Do you think I will let you go?"
"The only shortcoming of me is that I am very serious."
