Son, “Mom” Will Back You

Qiao Xi, who was still dazed just a moment ago, turned and said expressionlessly, "You are the illiterate one."

An Yi smiled and ignored him. He looked back over at Luo Xiu.

Luo Xiu moved his hand. "It\'s not mine. It won\'t be right for you to read without their permission."

Qiao Xi frowned, "Someone else\'s? Aren\'t you reading it too?"

Luo Xiu\'s lowered his eyes. His lips curved when he heard that and there were lights in his eyes, "I\'m different."

There were a few seconds of silence in the room.

Qiao Xi suddenly cussed loudly and took a few steps back, frightened. Pointing at Luo Xiu, he asked An Yi, "Did you see that?"

"See what?"

"That smile of his. Did he look like he was possessed? Grandmaster, hurry up. It\'s time you perform some exorcism!"

"……"

An Yi sipped his tea and looked over at Luo Xiu through the steam rising from his cup. Smiling, he said, "You are mistaken?"

"Am I?" asked Qiao Xi.

An Yi, "Mmhmm, he wasn\'t possessed. I think his mind had been stolen by some demon."

Qiao Xi, "……"

Qiao Xi, "? ?"

Recovering, Qiao Xi immediately looked back over at Luo Xiu with both a fearful and gossipy look. "Is what he said true?"

Luo Xiu didn\'t look up at him. He snickered slightly, "Didn\'t you always say that An Yi is a fraud who use Taoism to trick girls? What do you think?"

"Hmm, not this time…. Something is really off about you this time."

"How so?"

"In the past, you would ignore all our thoughts and speculations."

"……"

Luo Xiu said nothing else but looked up at them.

Meeting his eyes for two seconds, Qiao Xi\'s look became solemn. "He took a trip with the production team and spent a month in the mountains…… the elderlies always said that there are many things that we don\'t understand in the mountains. I never believed it before but perhaps there was some truth to that."

Luo Xiu looked down and smiled.

Seeing that Luo Xiu was too lazy to explain himself, Qiao Xi turned toward An Yi, held his own wrist and sighed, "Did you see that?"

"See what?"

"The most likely potential candidate to achieve immortality at your temple had been ruined by some female demon in the wild just like that – what a bummer? Your master just might beat you up for failing to stop him from joining the production team."

"……"

After he was done fooling around, Qiao Xi walked over to Luo Xiu. "Man, we\'ve known you for many years. How\'s that there is a female demon that could seduce you."

Luo Xiu, "Don\'t be silly. What demon?"

Qiao Xi, "Too late to deny it now. You got a picture? I want to see. I am too curious what kind of a goddess could seduce you."

Luo Xiu, "No."

Qiao Xi, "?"

Qiao Xi threatened him, "Don\'t push me. I don\'t like to pull my strings. Don\'t make me go look into all females between the age of 18 to 80 who were in Demons\' production team"

An Yi chimed in, "Don\'t forget those in the mountains too."

Qiao Xi, "Right, including those as well."

Luo Xiu did not doubt Qiao Xi\'s background and power and how bored and desperate for some excitement his friends was trying to pretend to be a playboy just to throw his father off his scent.

Luo Xiu looked up, "No need to look into it. She\'s someone you know."

Qiao Xi, "Huh??"

Qiao Xi thought about it for two seconds. "Don\'t tell me it\'s Zhuo Yixuan."

Luo Xiu, "No, not her."

Qiao Xi, "Who is it then?"

"……"

[You are not telling me that the very first time that you have an earthly desire it is towards my arranged date, are you?]

[I never take what belongs to others.]
