Chapter 124

Because of Xiao Junyan's headache and Dongfang Sheng's words, Han Tao and Xiao Junyan decided to stay here.

However, the courtyard was not very big. In the end, after discussing with the abbot of Chengde Temple, Han Tao and Xiao Junyan were allowed to stay in the guest room of Chengde Temple.

Chu Muyue helped Han Tao tidy up the room and then went to help Xiao Junyan.

When she arrived at the door of Xiao Junyan's room, she saw that he had tidied up and was sitting cross-legged on the bed. He seemed to be cultivating with his eyes closed.

Seeing Xiao Junyan's actions, Chu Muyue turned around and was about to leave.

"Come in!"

However, just when Chu Muyue turned around, Xiao Junyan's deep and magnetic voice came from behind her.

Chu Muyue waved her hand with her back to Xiao Junyan. "No need!"

"Are you afraid of me?" A somewhat muffled voice came from behind him. There was a hint of desolation and loneliness in the voice.

Hearing this voice, Chu Muyue paused and turned to look at Xiao Junyan. She pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before walking into the room.

However, Chu Muyue, who had entered the room, did not know what to say.

Xiao Junyan got up from the bed and walked to the table. He poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chu Muyue.

Chu Muyue looked at the teacup in front of her and slowly raised her head to look at Xiao Junyan.

Xiao Junyan pursed his thin lips and pondered for a long time before he said, "Are you thirsty?"

Seeing Xiao Junyan's strange words and actions, Chu Muyue could not help laughing. She took the teacup from Xiao Junyan.

If she did not calculate based on the age of this body after her rebirth, she would be several years older than Xiao Junyan!

"Thank you!" Chu Muyue gently nodded and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp.

Xiao Junyan looked at the empty teacup in Chu Muyue's hand and asked, "Do you want more?"

"No need!" Chu Muyue put the teacup on the table and raised her head to look at Xiao Junyan. She thought for a moment and said, "The poison in your body should be cured, right?"

"Yes!" Xiao Junyan nodded gently and lowered his head to look at Chu Muyue.

Chu Muyue was only fourteen years old. Compared to the twenty-three-year-old Xiao Junyan, she was very tall.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Junyan said, "Thank you!"

"There's nothing to thank me for. It's my duty to help when I see injustice!" Chu Muyue waved her hand and said, "If … you were a bad person, I wouldn't have saved you!"

Xiao Junyan lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "My identity …"

"I'm not interested in your identity at all!" Chu Muyue was afraid that Xiao Junyan would harm her because she knew about his identity, so she quickly said.

"Are you afraid?" Xiao Junyan's sharp brows furrowed slightly as he fixed his gaze on Chu Muyue.

Chu Muyue was slightly stunned and scratched her eyebrows awkwardly. She was afraid, but not of Xiao Junyan. She was afraid that she would be too involved with these forces and be implicated.

After her rebirth, although Chu Muyue wanted to change her destiny, she didn't want to be involved with these mysterious and powerful forces. She just wanted to live her own life.

Seeing Chu Muyue's actions and expression, Xiao Junyan lowered his head. His originally gentle and charming face was now cold and indifferent, as if the temperature around him had suddenly dropped by a few degrees.
