Chapter 345: Hidden Meetings

Oh, is that so?

Come to think of it, if Ye Shiyuan looked a bit uglier, with his personality of not liking to talk to people, who would even like him?

At any rate, Bai He definitely would not.

"What is it?"

"Nothing. I just think you are a little too confident."

Ye Shiyuan touched the mask on his face.

"Is that so? Didn’t Master once say you liked my face?"

"I did say that, but you wearing a mask just because you are afraid of people bothering you, if others found out the reason, they would laugh at you."

Ye Shiyuan let out a soft chuckle and did not care at all.

"I don’t think anyone would laugh at me for that. But you, Master... are you secretly laughing at me in your heart?"

Bai He immediately waved his hands.

"No, absolutely not."

Does he have mind reading skills?

That was terrifying.

"Master, I will come find you again. Be prepared. I am leaving first."

Perhaps worried that the others were really about to arrive, Ye Shiyuan left quite quickly.

Bai He sat down and sighed.

What was he doing? Showing up from time to time just to scare him? Was that really fun?

[ Host, didn’t you miss Ye Shiyuan a lot? Why do you seem unhappy now? ]

Yes, he should have been happy to see Ye Shiyuan.

But now, he did not feel happy at all.

"Maybe it’s because Shiyuan has changed. He is not like he used to be."

A slight hint of disappointment appeared on Bai He’s face.

[ Host, the growth of Ye Shiyuan will naturally bring changes. But based on his words and expression just now, he still likes you very much. He doesn’t let others see his face, but he let you see it. That is special treatment. ]

Is that so?

Mo Zhu really was trying every possible way to speak up for Ye Shiyuan.

Hearing some noises, Bai He looked over.

They had already arrived.

Ye Shiyuan had also come, but he was together with the people from Tianshan Palace.

Bai He only glanced at Ye Shiyuan before immediately searching for Gu He’s figure.

Beside Gu He stood an older man.

Bai He guessed that this should be Hu Jintao’s father, Elder Shi Yuqi.

After all, Hu Jintao was standing beside that man, his expression extremely respectful.

Gu He and Elder Shi Yuqi seemed to be having a pleasant conversation, their expressions relaxed and easy.

It was clear that Gu He had already noticed him.

"Junior Brother, come over here."

Hearing him being called, Bai He had no choice but to walk over.

"Fourth Senior Brother."

"This is Elder Shi Yuqi. Elder Shi Yuqi, this is my Junior Brother, Bai He."

Elder Shi Yuqi looked Bai He up and down, then nodded in apparent satisfaction.

"Elder Bai He, your Senior Brother mentioned you specifically in his letter to me. You and Hu Jintao are about the same age. If there is nothing going on in Lingguang Sect, you can spend more time with Hu Jintao."

Bai He felt extremely awkward.

Anyone could tell what Elder Shi Yuqi meant by that.

And it felt like something was watching him from behind, sending a chill down his spine.

Bai He subconsciously turned around to take a look, but saw nothing except the departing figures of the Tianshan Palace disciples.

Was that Ye Shiyuan’s gaze?

That could not be, it was too exaggerated.

Bai He stood there, pretending that nothing had happened.

Clearly, nothing between him and Hu Jintao was possible.

Elder Shi Yuqi’s wishful thinking was bound to fail.

His Senior Brother only dared to do something like this when his Master was not present.

If his Master were here, he would never allow it, unless he truly liked Hu Jintao.

But Bai He did not like him.

He was not someone who changed his feelings so easily.

...

"Have you and Master made up?"

Zhang Youxia asked curiously when no one was around.

"You really ask too much."

"You went to find him when no one was around. Wasn’t that to reconcile? Don’t tell me that after all this time, you still haven’t made up. Ye Shiyuan, do you even mean it? You saw it just now. Elder Shi Yuqi and that Hu Jintao are extremely satisfied with your Master. If you are not careful, someone else might take him away before you even know it."

Zhang Youxia was also thinking about Ye Shiyuan’s situation.

If Bai He really ended up marrying someone else, Zhang Youxia could not even imagine what Ye Shiyuan would do.

He was gentle when he was calm, but terrifying when he lost control.

"Your opponent tomorrow is Hu Jintao. You are not planning something, are you?"

Zhang Youxia looked over at Ye Shiyuan.

"Don’t be impulsive. Hu Jintao is Elder Shi Yuqi’s only son. If anything happens, it will not end well for you either."

Ye Shiyuan pressed his lips together.

"Do you think I am that kind of person?"

"Well, for others maybe not. But you, it’s really possible you would do something like that."

In truth, Ye Shiyuan was in a fairly good mood.

"Master said he doesn’t like Hu Jintao. So I will let him go for now."

No wonder Ye Shiyuan seemed a little strange.

Zhang Youxia silently felt that Bai He really needed to be thanked.

His few casual words were more effective than anything else.

"Are you going to see him tonight?"

Zhang Youxia asked directly, but his tone was almost certain.

"Yes."

Ye Shiyuan answered seriously without hesitation.

Zhang Youxia patted him on the shoulder.

"Be careful. Don’t get discovered."

...

Bai He sat there, unable to fall asleep.

Until suddenly, the window was opened and when he saw a familiar figure jump in through the window, he immediately regretted it.

He should have gone to sleep earlier.

Ye Shiyuan had taken off his mask, revealing a face so striking that it seemed capable of toppling kingdoms.

He was indeed very good looking.

It really was necessary for him to wear a mask to cover it up.
