Seeing that Lin Wanwan was about to disappear from his sight, and that the soldiers who knew him were still standing there with no intention of leaving, Ye Cunxin became anxious and looked at Lin Wanwan again. Taking advantage of the time when the soldiers turned their heads, he gritted his teeth and rushed in the direction where Lin Wanwan disappeared.
At the same time that Ye Cunxin disappeared around the corner, a square-faced soldier quickly turned around and stared at the corner in confusion.
Just a moment ago, he seemed to have seen a figure flash past the corner. Although he was very fast and could not see the person's appearance clearly, from the figure, it seemed to be Ye Cunxin.
The square-faced soldier frowned and muttered to the others beside him,"Just now…I think I saw Ye Cunxin?”
"Ye Cunxin? How is that possible? She didn't come with us today!”The short soldier beside him smiled disapprovingly."Did you not sleep well? Are your eyes blurry?”
"I'm in good spirits now. How could I not sleep well?”The square-faced soldier snorted coldly, then frowned again and muttered,""That person does look like Ye Cunxin…"
Hearing the square-faced soldier's silly words, another soldier chuckled and shook his head."It can't be Ye Cunxin. She was still busy training for the sniper competition. How could she come to such a place?”
"Yeah, and didn't Ye Cunxin just lose to Zheng Sanpao's disciple from the neighboring military district yesterday?”The short soldier shook his head regretfully.""This matter has dealt a huge blow to her. How can she still be in the mood to come to such a place? He's probably busy training!"
"This matter is indeed quite tragic.”The square-faced soldier shook his head helplessly.”
"Although Zheng Sanpao's strength is not comparable to Zhuang Yan's, he is not weak either. Now, Ye Cunxin couldn't even defeat Zheng Sanpao's disciple. Compared to Zheng Sanpao, he definitely didn't have much hope.”
A few soldiers looked regretful. It was not until another soldier not far away shouted that they walked towards their workplace.
……
After the soldiers dispersed, Ye Cunxin bent down and poked half of her head out from the corner of the wall, a look of self-blame flashing across her eyes.
She hid here and listened to the conversation between the soldiers from beginning to end.
Ye Cunxin knew that although those soldiers said so, they did not blame him.
But even if the soldiers didn't blame Ye Cunxin, she couldn't get over it.
Biting her lip and thinking for a while, Ye Cunxin quickly shook her head to get rid of those unconfident thoughts in her mind and quickly ran in Qin Shangyu's direction.
Lin Wanwan had already left Qin Shangyu's room when Ye Cunxin was eavesdropping. In addition, Qin Shangyu's room was located in a remote area, so Ye Cunxin did not meet anyone along the way.
Along the way to Qin Shangyu's residence, Ye Cunxin looked at the ancient wooden door in front of him. She hesitated for a moment, as if she was conflicted in her heart. Then, she reached out and pushed open the door in front of her.
Creak...
The crisp sound of the door opening rang out. In the next second, Qin Shangyu's question came from the room.
"Wanwan? Are there any unsolved questions?"
Hearing this voice that was like a spring breeze, Ye Cunxin was slightly stunned.
Such a gentle voice made people feel relaxed and calm just by listening to it.
Ye Cunxin seemed to be worried that someone would pass by and hear her, so she didn't answer immediately. Instead, she slowly walked into the house.
On the bed, Qin Shangyu closed his eyes slightly and sat cross-legged. He was checking the personal information panel and the exchange store that came with the system in detail, considering what to exchange for the next item and what he lacked.
Perhaps it was because he had practiced the Five Elements Taiji Fist to the extreme, but during this period of time, Qin Shangyu's senses had become much sharper.
Just like now, just from the sound of footsteps coming from the room, Qin Shangyu could confirm that the person who broke into his room was not his beloved disciple Lin Wanwan, nor was it anyone else in the Taoist temple.
Frowning, Qin Shangyu opened his eyes unhappily. When he saw Ye Cunxin who was standing in the same place with a stunned face and was frightened, Qin Shangyu was also slightly stunned.
What was this Ye Cunxin doing, barging into a man's room alone?
Moreover, weren't the people who led the team to repair the Taoist temple An Ran and He Lu?
Qin Shangyu stared at Ye Cunxin for a few seconds with a heart full of questions. Finally, he tried to say,""Why would Layman Ye appear in This Penniless Priest's room? Are you lost?"
" Master Yufeng Temple, long time no see…" Ye Cunxin came back to his senses and bowed to Qin Shangyu."I'm not lost. I'm here to find you, Monastery Master Yufeng.”
Seeing that Ye Cunxin had something to ask of him, Qin Shangyu's eyes quickly flashed with joy. He immediately got off the bed, waved his fan, and sat down on the chair beside Ye Cunxin.
This opportunity to obtain merit points really came as he wished!
The foundation he had laid in front of him should be slowly exploding.
Glancing at Ye Cunxin who was at a loss, Qin Shangyu smiled gently and said,""May I know why Scholar Ye is looking for me?
"Um…this…"
He was too embarrassed to say what was on his mind, making Ye Cunxin feel even more uneasy.
Qin Shangyu looked at Ye Cunxin's expression and shook his fan. He suddenly picked up a teacup from the tray beside him and placed it in front of Ye Cunxin, pouring tea for her.
"Please take a seat, Mr. Ye."
As he said this with a smile, Qin Shangyu pushed the teacup in Ye Cunxin's direction. The smile on his face became gentler.
Ye Cunxin pinched the corner of his clothes and looked at the warm smile on Qin Shangyu's face. Then, he looked at the teacup that was constantly emitting a fragrance. He stood in place for a moment and finally sat on the chair opposite Qin Shangyu silently.
Ye Chenxi's cold hands gripped the teacup tightly. She lowered her head and thought for a while. She took a sip of tea and felt her body warm up. She then whispered,"I remember that you said before that no matter what kind of trouble we encounter, you can help us?”
"Exactly." Qin Shangyu nodded, then looked at Ye Cunxin and asked in a gentle tone,""Does Layman Ye have a favor to ask?"
"Yes, I encountered a big problem…"
"Oh? I wonder what the problem is?"
Hearing Qin Shangyu's question, Ye Cunxin looked up at him. Looking into his clear and gentle eyes, her face showed a look of self-reproach again.
In fact, even if Ye Cunxin couldn't change her mind and came to Longevity Temple to ask Qin Shangyu for help, she still didn't believe that Qin Shangyu could help her.
If he had to give a reason for coming here, then Ye Cunxin was looking for psychological comfort.
Ye Cunxin knew that his strength was not enough. The chances of success in this sniper competition were very small. However, she did not want to admit defeat. She did not want to give up just like that and be looked down upon by others.
For Ye Cunxin, who had a strong sense of pride, such a situation could not happen.
When she was in such a dilemma, Ye Cunxin could not ask for help from her sisters or her leaders, so she could only confide in Qin Shangyu the uneasiness in her heart.
Her goal was to seek psychological comfort so that she could muster her courage again and be filled with confidence. Then, she would be in her best state to welcome the upcoming military skills competition.
