"What's your thought about Qingyue?"
As soon as the words were spoken, before Lu Jin'an could respond, Pei Wanyu stood up from the pool.
Water splashes dispersed the mist, outlining a graceful and stunning curve on the faint screen, like a rose blooming in the water, exuding an enchanting allure.
Her slender waist twisted slightly, and as her full, slender legs stepped forward, they brought with them the proud and upright warmth of her chest, creating ripples.
The bewitching body, soaked in the hot spring, exuded a unique grace; through the gossamer-like screen, every curve was clearly visible, as if unveiled.
Lu Jin'an pursed his lips, clearly feeling the increasing heartbeat and blood flow, but he did not look away.
Aside from his gaze being somewhat intense, there was no extra expression.
Behind the screen, without waiting for the water droplets on her body to dry, Pei Wanyu raised her arms and slipped into the purple bathrobe from Dong Han's hands, tying a small knot at her waist, covering most of the allure.
Pei Wanyu stepped out from behind the screen, and the elegance within her charm overshadowed all the candlelight.
Her jet-black hair was coiled high into a bun, with two damp strands gently hanging over her white forehead, adding a mature touch.
Her charming face wore no makeup, with her delicate eyebrows framing mesmerizing eyes, naturally lazy, a round jade nose, and soft lips glistening with a tempting sheen, like ripe strawberries, invoking a desire to taste.
Especially the beauty mark on her right lower lip, speaking of delicacy and charm.
The silk bathrobe embroidered with entwining white peonies gracefully fell to her calves, loosely draping yet still outlining Pei Wanyu's mature and proud curves perfectly.
The loose collar casually overlapped, unable to conceal the lofty depths, seemingly ready to reveal stunning sights with the next sway of her steps.
The tied waist created an extravagant and seductive silhouette, shaping the mature and charming waist and hips.
As she walked, her long, plump yet graceful legs peeked from the slit of the bathrobe, under flickering candlelight and gleaming water droplets, revealing a particular fineness and smoothness, silently exuding allure.
Her feet on the stone tiles were beautiful and seductive, with her toes painted in rouge, neat and proportionate, akin to the first signs of spring, radiating brilliance with every step.
The captivating bathrobe enhanced her bewitching and enchanting stance.
"Does it look good?" Pei Wanyu crossed her arms over her chest, making it even more compelling.
Lu Jin'an's gaze slithered over what even her hands couldn't fully grasp, thinking that although his elder teased him at times, she had never been as exposed as she was now.
He felt a heat in his lower abdomen; half a year, every night in the warm canopy except during Zhu Nanzhi's monthly cycle, had softened his resolve.
"It looks good." Lu Jin'an looked at Master, her eyes like a beauty emerging from the bath, and replied honestly.
Pei Wanyu laughed gently as she passed him, the scent of her damp hair and fragrant body entering Lu Jin'an's nose.
"Did I allow you to look?"
Lu Jin'an followed Master's pace with a slight smile, "You told me to get up, Master."
Pei Wanyu pushed open the door, stepping into the moonlit water pavilion corridor, "If I let you look, will you look?"
Following behind, Lu Jin'an lowered his eyelids slightly, glimpsing Pei Wanyu's slight sway of hips.
Most times, a woman's swaying hips while walking is intentional, but not for Pei Wanyu; her naturally graceful form made her hips sway unconsciously.
Yet it didn't appear wanton, instead, it carried elegance within its allure.
"I look!" Lu Jin'an answered softly, "Why not look?"
Pei Wanyu no longer spoke, following the corridor to a pavilion surrounded by water, sitting on a stone bench, lightly crossing her left leg over her right, revealing smooth leg skin through the slit.
Brighter than the moon.
Dong Han, who had been following, dutifully stood aside to pour wine for the Deputy Sect Master, while stealing a glance at Senior Brother.
Why had she never noticed Senior Brother being so bold before?
"So..." Pei Wanyu, sipping rice wine, glanced sideways at her only disciple, "If I give you that girl, would you accept?"
"Master showed me, and I looked." Lu Jin'an responded calmly.
Pei Wanyu's gaze dimmed as she looked at the clear wine in the cup, switching her right leg over her left, the bathrobe's slit tantalizingly revealing and hiding white thighs, as if the fabric might pull further at any moment, yet seemed to hold a magical allure, both enticing and mysterious.
Pei Wanyu couldn't help but scrutinize her disciple's slightly red face but earnest expression, his bold yet honest gaze; previously, though without fleeing, he would shyly resist when teased.
Yet with age, he accepted it more boldly and openly.
Even so, she had never known Lu Jin'an to take her clothes or secretly relieve himself at night.
During his years in the Wandao Sect, besides cultivating and practicing alchemy, he read books and took on tasks, maintaining discipline.
This led her to once wonder if something was amiss with him, but she had never imagined that, after a year and a half away, he would consummate with another woman.
Upon hearing this from Xia Ming, she felt both relieved and angrier.
If his preferences were normal, why was he so restrained on Taichu Peak?
Excluding my four maids, do you look down on me or your Senior Sister?
Are wild girls outside just that beautiful?
Pei Wanyu placed the wine cup on the table, tapping the stone with a rouge-painted finger, "You haven't answered the earlier question."
"Senior Sister..." In Lu Jin'an's mind, the image of Mu Qingyue appeared; silver-haired and elegant, always dressed in white, blindfolded in black, like an iceberg. Yet he didn't answer about his thoughts on Senior Sister, but instead said, "It wasn't the first time for disciple."
"Oh?"
Lu Jin'an smiled slightly, his voice as light as the breeze, "Nanzhi was not disciple's first."
Pei Wanyu's expression froze, Dong Han also paused, could Senior Brother have already pledged himself to Senior Sister Mu Qingyue in secret?
"Who?" Pei Wanyu fixed her gaze on Lu Jin'an.
Lu Jin'an shook his head, "It happened a long time ago."
Pei Wanyu's lips moved slightly, seeing his reluctance to elaborate, she understood it couldn't be Qingyue. Then who?
Surely it wasn't before he was ten?
Still... inexplicably relieved.
"Why did you go so far to the Nanzhuo Domain without a word?" Pei Wanyu sipped another cup of rice wine, changing the topic.
"Master, may I sit?"
Lu Jin'an quietly asked, the statement that Nanzhi wasn't his first acting like an 'open window effect,' resolving the issue quickly.
Pei Wanyu was about to refuse but saw the weariness between his brows, and recalling his long journey, her heart softened a bit.
"Sit down."
