Chapter 412 - 239: Xia Yue Really Has a Lot of Influence_3
Actually, there’s no need to bring them along.
But both of them said there was no place they wanted to go, or more accurately, their meaning was... if Chen Lusi wasn’t there, then there was no place they wanted to go.
In this situation, Chen Lusi had no choice but to take both of them along.
However.
Today, Chen Lusi couldn’t go directly to the Celestial Strategy Mansion branch.
Because just as he left the hotel, he ran into Wu You and Xia Panqiu at the entrance.
The two seemed ready to go out as well, so they just happened to bump into each other.
Upon seeing Chen Lusi and the two sisters behind him, Xia Panqiu and Wu You were both stunned for a moment, but they quickly recovered.
Xia Panqiu greeted Chen Lusi first and then greeted Lin Ying and Lin Wan.
Lin Ying nodded calmly.
As for Lin Wan... Lin Wan had already hidden behind her sister.
Her most lively side was reserved for Chen Lusi and her own sister.
On the other side.
Wu You also greeted him, then scooted over to Chen Lusi’s side, hooked his arm around his neck, and shook him vigorously, saying in a teeth-gritting tone, "Lusi, your brother Wu You is still unmarried! I can’t stand the thought of others drowning in happiness while I’m withering away!"
Chen Lusi: "..."
Back when he had just left Jiming Temple, Chen Lusi had messaged the two of them, informing them that he had things to handle for a while and that they should practice on their own and not worry about him temporarily.
Both of them had no objections at the time.
However... judging by Wu You’s tone now, it seemed he did have some grievances.
Apparently, he believed that Chen Lusi had been spending all his time with the two sisters.
"Me too."
Chen Lusi looked at Wu You, thought for a moment, and gave the same answer.
He was indeed still unmarried too.
"..."
Wu You fell silent for a moment, then subtly glanced at the three women who had almost all their attention on him, and said helplessly, "Can you really be?"
Speaking of which.
He was truly at a loss.
He had finally made up his mind to keep up with Chen Lusi.
Unexpectedly, snap, the two sisters parachuted in, and Chen Lusi was gone just like that.
He couldn’t even see him all day.
Meeting once was tough, let alone practicing together.
He was feeling quite exasperated.
But, to say he was resentful wouldn’t be accurate.
After all, better than anyone, he understood how much Chen Lusi had gone through to join the Celestial Strategy Mansion, and it was not unreasonable for him to want a proper break.
So, after a slight complaint, he let it go.
Soon enough.
Wu You released his hold on Chen Lusi’s neck and sighed, "Never mind, I won’t bother you anymore. What are you up to next? Visiting any tourist spots?"
"No, I’m planning to head to the Celestial Strategy Mansion branch."
Chen Lusi shook his head, "What about you guys?"
"We’re also heading to the Celestial Strategy Mansion branch..."
Wu You paused for a moment, then asked, "What made you head there today? Did Xia Yue call you?"
Chen Lusi casually explained, "I’ve been there for the past few days."
"..."
Wu You asked in shock, "You’re taking your childhood playmates to the Celestial Strategy Mansion branch to hang out? You picked that lousy place as a date spot?"
"No, it’s work-related."
Chen Lusi shook his head, "The Chamomile Alliance people have arrived in Jinling these days, along with representatives from the Daoist famous mountains."
"Chamomile Alliance? Representatives from the Daoist famous mountains?"
Wu You paused upon hearing this, "What are they here for?"
On the other side.
Xia Panqiu was also taken aback.
Both of them had been called over by Ji Xin on short notice.
Indeed, these two matters... to be honest, were quite significant, something they still weren’t aware of.
Or rather, weren’t in the position to know...
"It’s a long story."
Chen Lusi glanced at the time, "Aren’t you heading to the Celestial Strategy Mansion branch too? Let’s get going, I’ll explain it to you later. I’ve arranged a meeting time with the four Daoists from the great Daoist mountains, and I’m really not keen on being late."
"Holy crap... You’ve arranged a meeting with the Daoists from the four great Daoist mountains!? All four of them came!?"
Wu You’s expression slightly changed again.
But soon after, he must have thought of something, as his expression returned to one of realization, and he sighed in admiration, "I get it now, didn’t expect those old Daoists who always preached seclusion would go to such lengths for a scenery-related issue... Xia Yue really has some influence!"
Of course, he realized what having representatives from the Four Great Daoist Mountains meant.
So instinctively, he believed... the four Daoists had come for some scenery-related matters.
