Chapter 141 The Dark Junior Brother Comes Back
"Xuan Che, you're here!"
Seeing him coming, Jiang Wan stood up suddenly, a sincere smile blooming on her face, just like the countless times Xuan Che recalled it, still gentle and warm, as if the whole world was bright at this moment.
Ignoring Jiang Wan, Xuan Che swept the food on the table with disdain and said sarcastically, "You don't really think you can impress me with these trivial things, do you?"
Jiang Wan pursed her lips and looked at him with a determined look, "If these don't impress you, just ask me for it. As long as you want it, I will do my best to do it!"
Seeing Jiang Wan's confident look, Xuan Che's remaining sarcastic words got stuck in his throat and had no room to be used anymore.
Jiang Wan knew that he also wanted to sit down and eat, but unfortunately he couldn't bring himself to do it. So without waiting for Xuan Che to react, Jiang Wan immediately took two steps forward, grabbed his sleeve, and pulled him to the dining table.
Seeing his lips move slightly, and he was about to refute something, Jiang Wan immediately said: "I did such an unforgivable thing to you, these meals can't make up for it, but it is the only thing I can do for you now, Xuan Che, this is what I owe you."
After hearing Jiang Wan's words, Xuan Che opened his lips slightly, but ultimately said nothing more. He sat down directly and started to eat the delicious food on the table in big mouthfuls.
Jiang Wan was right. She owed him this. This was what she should do! What was wrong with him eating a meal? He had every right to eat. He should eat!
Xuan Che swallowed with big gulps while Jiang Wan looked at him lovingly from the side, his eyes focused, gentle and indulgent, yet with a hint of helplessness.
When they had almost finished eating, Xuan Che looked up and met Jiang Wan's eyes. He finally came to his senses from the delicious food and tried to understand his situation!
The next moment, he threw the dishes and chopsticks heavily on the table, turned around and left angrily.
Seeing Jiang Wan's hurt eyes, Xuan Che had never felt so happy. He wanted to let Jiang Wan know that he would not be moved by such a small thing. She could not repay what she had done to him even if she cooked for him for a lifetime! She should reflect on herself and do more things like this to please him!
Afterwards, the more Xuan Che thought about it, the more he felt that he was right to let Jiang Wan out.
He had gone astray before. What was the point of imprisoning her? Let her practice without distraction every day. He got angry every time he saw her! He should have let her out earlier and let her make him happy in different ways. Only when he was satisfied could he reward her with a smile!
She should be punished severely like this. Only in this way can she empathize with the pain she suffered before!
But what he didn't realize was that compared to the pain of being thrown into the abyss, Jiang Wan only squeezed out some irrelevant time to cook some meals, which made him happy. Should he be said to be stupid or easy to coax?
From the beginning to the end, Xuan Che was not aware of his own feelings. Why did he hate Jiang Wan more than Zhu Yan, the murderer who directly pushed him into the abyss? Why did he easily forgive Jiang Wan for doing some small things, but compared to Zhu Yan, he only wanted to peel off a layer of skin from him to relieve his hatred...
He had already failed.
He was just a fool who couldn't recognize his own feelings and rushed around with brute force until he was covered in bruises. But fortunately, Jiang Wan was there this time.
Since then, Xuan Che seemed to have his Ren and Du meridians opened up. He came to Jiang Wan's place to eat more and more frequently and more and more blatantly, but he couldn't make Jiang Wan laugh. She could only keep a sad face and sigh, and Xuan Che would feel more at ease.
Of course, this was something Jiang Wan figured out on his own.
But it's not a solution to continue like this, Jiang Wan wants to take the next step with him.
So, today's dinner table not only has food, but also drinks.
Xuan Che's face changed slightly, but he did not stop it. After three rounds of drinking, Jiang Wan plucked up the courage and slowly covered Xuan Che's hand.
Xuan Che couldn't drink much, and if he was sober, he would have refused long ago. But now he seemed to be wavering between confusion and clarity, as if he was in a desolate dream... Feeling Jiang Wan's hand covering his, he just looked at her with confusion.
Jiang Wan's heart was beating like thunder. He took a deep breath and said slowly, "Xuan Che, let me help you heal your wounds."
The skin of a cultivator is just an external object. Even if the body is broken, as long as the soul is still there, it is not a problem to rebuild the body. Xuan Che kept all these scars just to make Jiang Wan feel guilty.
But even though Jiang Wan had made sufficient mental preparations, he still couldn't help being frightened by his sudden reveal of his true form every day.
Isn't it good to be a handsome man? She promised to treat him as well as before!
Fearing that Xuan Che would disagree, Jiang Wan continued, "Every time I see the wounds on your body, I feel as if my heart is being cut by a knife. Xuan Che, can you give me a chance? Let me heal your wounds..."
Seeing Xuan Che still groggy, Jiang Wan gained confidence. He directly reached out and covered his face with his hands. His voice was incredibly gentle. "Junior brother, please? Give me a chance, please? Let's go back to the way we were before..."
Jiang Wan was very close to him, so close that Xuan Che could smell her fragrance. He felt his thoughts becoming more and more confused, as if he had fallen into a fog and could not find a way out.
Almost subconsciously, he was about to agree, but when he thought of something, he suddenly came to his senses.
He pushed Jiang Wan away, his face full of gloom, "I knew it, I knew you still find me disgusting, you still hate my body! What right do you have? Jiang Wan, what right do you have! Isn't all this caused by you? Since you have chosen to atone, even if you can't stand it, you have to endure it!"
Jiang Wan didn't expect it to backfire. The two of them were obviously getting along well before, but she overestimated Xuan Che, who turned hostile immediately.
Fearing that the misunderstanding would spread, Jiang Wan didn't even wait, and rushed directly to Xuan Che, hugged his face and kissed the hideous scar devoutly, murmuring: "Look at me, how could I dislike you? I obviously like you the most, don't I? I just feel sad when I see the wound on your body..."
Feeling the wetness on his face and watching Jiang Wan's extraordinary behavior, Xuan Che sobered up. He stood there in shock, and pushed Jiang Wan away and roared, "What are you doing! Jiang Wan, are you crazy?"
Jiang Wan raised her head slightly, as if she was not disturbed by him at all, and said innocently: "Why? Xuan Che, don't you know anything about Senior Sister's feelings for you? I like you so much, how could I dislike the wound on your body?"
