The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix C304

Chapter 304: Protagonist, Confession

In the bamboo forest, a gentle breeze blew, and the midday sun cast its afterglow through the bamboo leaves.

After Ye Anping led Liang Zhu eastward, Su Wan’er expressed her desire to visit Yuan Quan Town, leaving only Pei Lianxue and Feng Yudie in the woods. For Feng Yudie, this was a rare opportunity to be alone with Pei Lianxue.

Although she had just swallowed that black spiritual spear, and her back was now throbbing with pain, being alone with Pei Lianxue far outweighed any discomfort.

After meditating to gather her energy, she slowly opened her eyes and glanced at Pei Lianxue beside her.

Pei Lianxue, like her, sat cross-legged on the leaf-covered ground, her eyes closed as she rested, sunlight illuminating her dark brown hair with a radiant glow.

Feng Yudie looked at her, her lips slightly parted, wanting to start a conversation, but suddenly unsure what to say to Pei Lianxue. She considered numerous topics, but Pei Lianxue seemed uninterested, responding with either a brief “Oh” or “Hmm,” rarely engaging in a lengthy conversation.

After much thought, Feng Yudie decided that praising Ye Anping would be a safe bet. Junior Sister Pei adored Ye Anping the most, and if she complimented him, she would surely open up.

Moreover, since their conversation in the Sword Sect, Feng Yudie felt that meeting Ye Anping was a tremendous stroke of luck.

No matter how fierce the storms were, as long as Ye Anping was present, she could navigate through them smoothly.

Ye Anping was truly different from the men her master had described as rotten.

“Well… Junior Sister Pei, if only I could be like you and meet Young Master Ye a few years earlier~”

Hearing this, Pei Lianxue, who had been meditating peacefully, suddenly had her hair fluttering in the breeze, her attention captured.

She slowly opened her eyes and glanced at Feng Yudie. “What?”

As Pei Lianxue’s conversation opened up, Feng Yudie’s eyes sparkled. “My master always told me that men are all scoundrels, but Master Ye seems different from the others. Not only has he never lied to me, but he has also been very kind. He helped me earn a lot of spiritual stones, and he even gave me techniques, spiritual swords, and elixirs.”

Pei Lianxue listened and nodded slightly, feeling very calm. Senior brother had explained to her before that giving good things to the second fool was just because the second fool could bring him more benefits, just like investing.

“Well, senior brother is nice to everyone. It’s normal,” She responded with a nod.

Feng Yudie also nodded in agreement, but then she glanced up at the sky and said, “Moreover, during this time when Young Master Ye was training me in the Mysterious Yin Technique, it always reminded me of my master. My master used to train me in a similar way. Whenever I was lazy, he would hit me with bamboo pieces… Hehe.”

“Do you regard my senior brother as your master?” Pei Lianxue asked.

“Of course, he can’t be compared to my master. My master is the best in the world,” Feng Yudie replied, gazing into the distance with nostalgia. “Master is the best person to me, and Young Master Ye is the second-best person.”

As she spoke, she chuckled and scratched her silver hair behind her. “Although I haven’t met many people since childhood, I have always lived in the mountains with my master. When I occasionally went out to play, my master wouldn’t take me to crowded places, haha…”

So, the second fool regarded her senior brother as her second master. In that case, her behavior of sticking to him these days could be explained.

As for the senior brother, he probably treated her like a disciple.

It was normal…

Um!

Pei Lianxue nodded expressionlessly, feeling much relieved. Her tone softened as she asked, “Why are you telling me this suddenly?”

Pei Lianxue’s softened tone brought a sense of relief to Feng Yudie, who felt a sudden joy. She was finally able to open up to Junior Sister Pei.

Seizing the opportunity while Ye Anping was away, she quietly stepped closer to Junior Sister Pei.

“Just chatting casually. It’s rare to have a chance to talk with you, Junior Sister Pei… I just want to hear your voice,” She said.

Pei Lianxue nodded, then asked to confirm her thoughts, “Are you perhaps considering marrying my senior brother?”

“How could that be possible~~” Feng Yudie replied, rolling her eyes. She glanced at Pei Lianxue’s calm expression and surveyed the surroundings.

The forest was lush and verdant, with bamboo scattered about and a refreshing breeze blowing.

Might be this wasn’t the perfect moment, but…

Feng Yudie took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and exclaimed, “Junior Sister Pei!! I…”

“Hmm!” Pei Lianxue glanced over.

Feng Yudie eagerly turned to face Pei Lianxue, who was meditating nearby, and declared loudly, “I’m devoted to you!”

“Oh,” Came the response.

“Junior sister Pei, I mean it,” Feng Yudie said, nervously clenching her fists and biting her lip. “From the moment I laid eyes on you, I knew you were the one for me.”

“Oh,” Pei Lianxue responded.

“I don’t mind if you, Junior Sister Pei, marry three wives and four concubines in the future, and I don’t mind if you marry Young Master Ye first, so…”

Feng Yudie poked her fingers pitifully and asked lowly, “Can Junior Sister Pei marry me?”

She looked at Pei Lianxue quietly, hoping for her to respond with a “Yes!”

Unfortunately, Pei Lianxue glanced at her, then closed her eyes to continue her meditation, seemingly disregarding the heartfelt and courageous words that had taken so much effort for Feng Yudie to say.

As Pei Lianxue didn’t respond, a hint of disappointment crept onto Feng Yudie’s face. She lowered her head, biting her lower lip, on the verge of tears.

However, she reconsidered. Perhaps it was just the wrong timing. After all, Pei Lianxue didn’t reject her, nor did she show any displeasure towards her.

“Junior sister Pei…”

“…”

“It’s been so long since you called me the second idiot… It feels so affectionate when you call me that. Can you please call me second idiot from now on?”

Pei Lianxue hesitated momentarily, then finally agreed to her request, “Second idiot.”

Almost instantly, the disappointment vanished from Feng Yudie’s face, replaced by her usual silly expression.

“Hey~! Hey, hey…”

However, at that moment, Su Wan’er emerged from behind a bamboo in the south. Just as she returned, she overheard Feng Yudie’s heartfelt confession to Pei Lianxue, leaving her speechless. She had initially thought these two girls were vying for the affection of the Ye surname, but it turned out…

However, the revelations she had heard from Ye Anping’s conversation with his elder brother were enough to shock the entire realm!

Based on what she had heard, the information could fetch tens of thousands of spirit stones on the black market.

If she was right, and that Ye fellow was indeed of high status, following him would ensure she was well-fed, even if it meant just sipping some soup.

After a while, Ye Anping and Liang Zhu returned from the east side of the bamboo forest. Ye Anping glanced at Feng Yudie, who was inexplicably giggling, and furrowed his brow slightly:

“Why are you laughing so foolishly?”

Feng Yudie quickly composed herself, averted her gaze, and replied, “Nothing, hehe.”

?

Ye Anping glanced at his junior sister, who was calmly meditating, then glanced at the sky and said,

“We’ll stay overnight at the inn in the nearby town today. Since you also need to recover from your injuries, Miss Su, please go to the inn and book a few rooms for us first?”

Su Wan’er smiled and responded, “I just returned from town. Anticipating that you would likely stay here overnight, I already made the reservations.”

“Oh…”
