Chapter 13 Qian Daoliu: Buhao! My Little Cotton-padded Jacket!
The Hall of Offerings.
In the courtyard of Golden Crocodile Douluo.
Jasmine flowers bloomed everywhere, their fragrance filling the air.
A little golden-haired boy sat on a large rock, picking up a stick and chopping at the surrounding flowers and plants.
Creak~
The door opened.
Qian Renxue turned around and saw Golden Crocodile come out, immediately asking, "Grandpa Golden Crocodile, is Yue'er awake?"
"Yes! Little Xue, come in and see."
Hearing the answer, the little golden-haired boy excitedly dropped the stick and ran into Jin Yue'er's room.
A moment later, she leaned over the bedside, looking at the short-haired girl with a slightly rosy complexion, and couldn't help but feel happy.
"Yue'er, you made it through."
"That's great! I won't be so lonely anymore!"
The little girl, wearing a longevity lock, smiled, then blinked, looking curiously at the two: "Grandpa, Little Xue, how did I get rescued?"
Golden Crocodile was stunned for a moment, then told her everything.
A few minutes later.
Lying on the hospital bed, Jin Yue'er's eyes shone with a hint of light, deeply grateful to Jiang Nian, whom her grandfather had mentioned.
She hadn't expected that the "disease" that had baffled the entire Spirit Hall had been cured by his spirit.
"That's right! Little Jiang is my best friend of the opposite sex!"
Qian Renxue said proudly, pouting.
Jin Yue'er understood that without that little wooden umbrella, she would have definitely exploded and died when she awakened her spirit.
She wouldn't be alive and well like this now.
Although she couldn't get out of bed yet, at least after some more rest, she could start cultivating!
"By the way, Grandpa, will Jiang...Jiang Nian come to treat me again tomorrow?"
The short-haired girl asked nervously, automatically picturing the image of the boy who was only a year older than her.
Her little hand tightened slightly, a hint of inferiority flashing in her eyes.
Jin E nodded, not noticing her unusual expression: "That's right, that kid said your body still needs his treatment, and you might be able to get out of bed in a week."
Qian Renxue covered Jin Yue'er's icy little hand, grinning, "When Yue'er gets better, I'll take you to steal some bird eggs from Grandpa Guangling!"
"To nourish your body!"
Jin E: "?"
Jin Yue'er's expression brightened, and she swallowed hard: "This...this isn't very good, is it?"
The little golden-haired boy waved his hand arrogantly, "What's wrong with it?!"
"Let's bring Jiang Nian along too, he's full of tricks!"
Jin E watched the two little devils plotting against their little brother's soul beast egg, silently feeling sorry for him for a second.
As for Jiang Nian, he probably wouldn't play along with these two little devils, right?
It's really a headache... how should he repay this kindness?
He only has one granddaughter, he can't just let it go like this.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Jiang Nian saw Qian Renxue climbing up the steps of the Saintess Temple halfway up the mountain.
Scratching his head, he quickly went down.
Half a minute later.
"Phew...
Little Xue, what brings you here?"
The little golden-haired boy looked up and exclaimed in surprise, "Jiang Nian, I was just about to look for you!"
"Let's go eat! After we eat, we'll treat Yue'er!"
"Oh, right! It's my treat!"
Qian Renxue patted her still-developing chest, which was unremarkable.
Jiang Nian glanced at her and nodded with a smile.
Since someone was treating, that was perfectly fine.
Bibi Dong was usually quite generous, giving him hundreds or even thousands of gold soul coins.
However, he had always been rather frugal.
He was thinking of buying whale glue in Hanhai City later.
However, since what happened yesterday, there was no need for such trouble.
He could just mention it to Golden Crocodile Douluo.
As a Second Elder, he should at least get himself half a box of ten-thousand-year whale glue, right?
Maybe there would be some unexpected gains.
"Okay, Xiaoxue, let's go now!"
Jiang Nian smiled, it was almost time for dinner, everyone~
Half an hour later.
Jiang Nian placed breakfast on the tea table in Bibi Dong's boudoir.
Just as he was about to leave, a cold voice came.
"Are you going to treat that sickly child?"
Jiang Nian turned around and respectfully replied, "Yes, teacher."
After a moment, Bibi Dong said without joy or sorrow, "Go, don't forget to attend class at the Spirit Hall Academy."
"Yes! This disciple takes his leave."
Jiang Nian closed the door and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly walked down the mountain.
Little Golden Retriever had been waiting for a long time.
Not long after.
Under her guidance, Jiang Nian stepped into the Hall of Elders for the first time.
Qian Renxue hesitated, looking at the boy beside her, unsure whether to reveal her true identity.
Yesterday's incident was already out in the open.
However…
"Xiao Jiang! I wanted to interact with you as an ordinary person, but what I got in return was… ouch!"
"Why did you hit my head!"
Qian Renxue, hands on her hips, glared at him angrily, wanting to know why.
Jiang Nian, seeing the little blond's silly expression, smiled helplessly: "I know everything. From now on, I'll be living off you."
Qian Daoliu, secretly observing, almost lost his balance, his lips twitching slightly.
Good, good!
So cunning!
No wonder my granddaughter seemed a bit off lately; it turns out this kid had been manipulating her.
Too bad, is Xiaoxue that kind of person?
Hmph!
The little golden retriever immediately raised its snow-white neck and patted his head: "Don't worry! You'll have food to eat from now on!"
"As long as you acknowledge me as your older sister, I'll make sure you live off me for the rest of your life!"
Qian Daoliu's expression froze, and he immediately wanted to find a time to hang this kid up and give him a good beating.
His little darling, whom he had raised for seven years, seemed to be disappearing into thin air.
Jiang Nian slapped Qian Renxue's hand away, saying with a hint of disdain, "Don't touch my head, it'll stunt my growth... no, it'll stunt my height!"
After saying that, he put his hands in his pockets and urged, "Let's heal that little girl's injuries first. Your idea will never come true."
The little golden retriever pouted, snorted coldly, and quickened its pace.
Sooner or later, she would make Jiang Nian cry and call her older sister!
Passing through the jasmine garden, both of their clothes carried a faint fragrance of flowers.
Stopping in a courtyard, Qian Renxue found Jin Yue'er's room and knocked on the door first: "Little Yue'er, I brought Jiang Nian in?"
The short-haired girl on the hospital bed, her face pale, was startled and looked nervously at Jin E: "Grandpa, I...am I too ugly like this?"
Jin E: "Huh?"
Before his brain could react, the door opened.
Qian Renxue skipped in, looking at Jin Yue'er with her head covered by the blanket, and asked with some confusion: "Huh? Grandpa Jin E, Little Yue'er, why weren't you saying anything?"
"Also, aren't you afraid of suffocating with your head covered so tightly?"
Jin Yue'er was speechless, suppressing her urge to complain, and silently peeked out.
Looking around, she didn't seem to see anyone else.
"Sister Xiaoxue, where's Jiang Nian?"
