Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All

413 Go Back

Shangguan Yun’er smiled shyly. Shangguan Yun’er said, “You always say nice things.”

“Let’s go back,” said Dong Xi with a smile.

Dong Xi had brought Shangguan Yun’er out. If they went back now, who knew what the consequences would be?

The two of them returned to the Shangguan Residence. When the guard saw the two of them return, he immediately reported it to Little Ya.

Dong Xi looked at the guard holding the jade slip. She ignored him and brought Shangguan Yun’er back to her room.

“We’ll hang this painting in Madam’s room later, so you’ll see it more often,” said Dong Xi.

Shangguan Yun’er nodded and agreed.

In the room, Shangguan Yun’er gave the painting to Little Yue and asked her to hang it up.

Dong Xi watched as Little Yue took the painting and walked out. Dong Xi said in a low voice, “Madam, these two paintings are not bad. When you have nothing to do, you can look at them more.”

Dong Xi originally wanted to say that these two paintings were painted by a Fellow Daoist who had entered the Dao through painting, but she was afraid that if she said it out loud, Shangguan Yun’er would go into a dead end.

It was better to let nature take its course. Shangguan Yun’er would look at the painting every day and draw every day. Perhaps she would be able to comprehend it sooner or later.

Shangguan Yun’er nodded. At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.

Little Yue ran back with the painting in her hand. She bowed slightly and said, “Young Miss, Young Master, Little Ya is here.”

Shangguan Yun’er frowned. Dong Xi said, “We’re not going to see her.”

Shangguan Yun’er was stunned. She turned around and looked at Dong Xi in surprise.

Dong Xi looked at Shangguan Yun’er’s surprised expression and said, “Little Ya is a servant. Since she’s here, do I still have to see her? Let Little Ya go back and wait. I’ll see when I want to see her.”

Little Yue was speechless.

Little Yue looked at Shangguan Yun’er with a troubled expression. After all, in the past few decades, every time the Old Master went into seclusion, Little Ya was in charge of all the affairs in the mansion.

However, this time, Shangguan Yun’er stood beside Dong Xi. Shangguan Yun’er said, “Go and tell Little Ya that I won’t see her!”

When Little Yue heard this, she said excitedly, “Yes, Miss.”

Little Ya heard that Shangguan Yun’er did not want to see her, and she was instantly stunned on the spot.

This had never happened since the Young Miss spoke.

Someone must have taught the Young Miss to say behave like this. It must be the so-called Young Master!

Little Ya’s expression was extremely ugly. She did not know what the Old Master was thinking. He actually threw an embroidered ball to pick a husband for the Young Miss, and found such a bad guy.

If Little Ya had married the Young Miss, none of this would have happened.

Little Yue watched Little Ya leave. Little Yue excitedly returned to the room and vividly described Little Ya’s expression when she left.

Dong Xi and Shangguan Yun’er were even more delighted. Shangguan Yun’er said, “This is also a way to kill Little Ya’s prestige. This is the first time I’ve felt so happy in decades!”

When Dong Xi heard this, she smiled and said, “Madam, if you don’t want to do anything in the future, don’t do it. You don’t have to look at the servants’ expressions.”

Shangguan Yun’er nodded excitedly, her eyes sparkling.

“Madam, do you want to draw a picture as a memento?” Dong Xi continued.

Shangguan Yun’er was stunned for a moment. Previously, she only drew one painting a day. Why was she drawing again today?

However, hearing Dong Xi’s words, Shangguan Yun’er did not feel disgusted.

After thinking for a moment, Shangguan Yun’er said, “Since Husband said I should draw a memento, then I’ll draw one.”

“Miss, be careful with your hands, ” Little Yue said immediately. “You’ll get calluses if you hold a brush for too long.”

Little Yue had just said that when she felt a thorn behind her.

Little Yue turned around and saw Dong Xi’s sharp glare.

Dong Xi stretched out her hand and placed it in front of Shangguan Yun’er.

“So what if there are cocoons?” asked Dong Xi.

Shangguan Yun’er looked at the calluses on Dong Xi’s hands and instantly understood that these were left behind by her sword practice.

Shangguan Patriarch also practiced swordsmanship and had the same calluses on his hands.

Seeing Shangguan Yun’er staring at her hand, Dong Xi said seriously, “Madam, you will only get what you give. I think you should know what I mean. You can make your own choice.”

Shangguan Yun’er thought of the possibility of stepping into Dao and her heart skipped a beat. Shangguan Yun’er said, “I want to draw.”

Dong Xi then smiled and said, “In that case, I won’t disturb Madam.”

After saying that, Dong Xi walked out of the room and went straight to the practice room.

However, she did not expect to see Little Ya at the door of the training room. Dong Xi did not stop and walked over directly.

As soon as they arrived at the door of the training room, Little Ya bowed respectfully and said, “Young Master.”

Only then did Dong Xi stop. She nodded lightly and opened the training room.

This attitude made it seem as if Little Ya was just a servant here and did not need to take it to heart at all.
