Male protagonist, you are targeting the wrong person
Chapter 31: Making do
As the sky gradually darkened, the five people outside the cave were still staring at each other. Shangguan Zhi looked at Zhao Wenlong, then at the bed, subconsciously coughed lightly, and then said slowly:
"We are senior brothers, so it seems that we shouldn't let our junior brothers suffer?!"
Zhao Wenlong seemed to have received the signal. He looked at Ouyang Xian and Jiang Wenbai calmly and spoke arrogantly:
"You two have been dragging our feet for two months, and you still have the nerve to sleep! Keep practicing tonight, and don't keep thinking about being lazy. Look at your performance over the past two months, I'm ashamed of you."
Ouyang Xian looked at the bed eagerly, then looked at Zhao Wenlong who had an unquestionable look on his face, and subconsciously shrank his neck, complaining aggrievedly:
"I haven't had a good night's sleep for two months, Second Brother, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Wenlong started to move his wrist. Seeing Zhao Wenlong's disdainful look, Ouyang Xian shuddered and then fled.
Seeing Ouyang Xian fleeing, Zhao Wenlong looked at Jiang Wenbai. Jiang Wenbai's body instantly straightened, and he saluted expressionlessly and said:
"Brother, I will keep watch today."
Jiang Wenbai was so tactful that Zhao Wenlong naturally let him go easily. He chuckled smugly and stopped talking.
Yan Wenmo looked at Ouyang Xian who was hiding aside with a resentful look on his face, then looked at Jiang Wenbai who was keeping watch outside the cave, and then looked at Zhao Wenlong and Shangguan Zhi who were going to bed to prepare for sleep, and couldn't help feeling a little depressed.
Didn't anyone ask her opinion?! This is obviously her bed, okay?! Don't you feel ashamed to occupy her bed like this?!!
Looking at the ceiling of the cave with great grief and anger, Yan Wenmo quickly ran to Xuanyuan Jing's inner room to ask for bedding. To be honest, Yan Wenmo was very busy. When she went to the town to buy daily necessities that day, she happened to see a chaise longue made of rosewood.
The chaise longue was extremely exquisite in both carving and style, and it was covered with a wool blanket and cotton cushions. It was the first time that Yan Wenmo had seen such an exquisite item, so he simply bought it.
But because she was a "mortal" and therefore did not have a Qiankun bag, she simply asked Xuanyuan Jing to help her put it in first, and then take it out and lie down when she had time.
Who knew that when Shangguan Zhi and the others arrived, this chaise longue would come in handy. For a moment, Yan Wenmo even felt that he had made some preparations for a rainy day.
As soon as she entered the inner room, she saw Xuanyuan Jing practicing. Perhaps her footsteps disturbed Xuanyuan Jing, who stopped practicing and looked at her curiously:
"Thirteen, you are..."
Upon hearing this, Yan Wenmo scratched his hair awkwardly and explained hesitantly:
"Can you please take out the chaise longue I bought last time?"
Seeing that Yan Wenmo was asking about the chaise longue, Xuanyuan Jing didn't think much about it and just stood up and walked out, saying as she walked:
"Where are you going to put it?!"
Yan Wenmo pondered for a while before speaking:
"Just put it over there behind the screen, where there's no wind?!"
Seeing Yan Wenmo's frank words, Xuanyuan Jing stopped. She frowned and looked at the screen between Xie Xiaofeng and the outside. She couldn't help but said to Yan Wenmo in embarrassment:
"Isn't this a little too close?!"
Yan Wenmo touched his nose and said in a low voice helplessly:
"No way, there are too many people, no way to arrange it"
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Jing belatedly remembered that Shangguan Zhi and the others had come here. Then she thought of the bed outside and was silent for a long time before she spoke:
"I did buy a few extra sets of bedding and stuff, but the bed is a bit troublesome!"
In response to this, Yan Wenmo rubbed his forehead and added rather awkwardly:
"Just make do with it for one night. Tomorrow, why don't you go to the market with Master Ouyang and buy a few more beds and blankets so we won't be crowded."
Xuanyuan Jing also subconsciously pondered for a while and agreed:
"That's fine, do you want to buy something else?!"
"That's all for now, we'll talk about the rest later."
"I don't think there's much food left. Why don't we buy some more tomorrow?!"
"That's fine, you can do whatever you want."
As they were talking, the two of them left the outer room. Perhaps they were curious about what Yan Wenmo and Xuanyuan Jing were doing? So, Xie Xiaofeng couldn't help but come over.
When Xie Xiaofeng saw Xuanyuan Jing taking out the soft couch and Yan Wenmo holding the quilt, and then looked at Shangguan Zhi and Zhao Wenlong who were preparing to go to bed, she couldn't help but say to Yan Wenmo:
"You...have no place to sleep?!"
Although he didn't understand the other party's intention, Yan Wenmo still nodded obediently. Seeing this, Xie Xiaofeng said calmly but surprisingly:
"Then sleep with me."
As soon as these words came out, the whole room fell silent. Everyone looked at Xie Xiaofeng in astonishment, not understanding what was wrong with him? ! After Ouyang Xian's initial shock, he became jealous and envious.
How could this guy be so lucky that someone actually invited him to sleep in the same bed with him? How am I worse than him? ! Why don’t I have this benefit? ! Is it because I am not handsome enough? !
Not really. From whichever aspect you look at him, he is several times, no, dozens of times, no, hundreds of times better looking than Yan Shisan.
How come this guy is so lucky? ! And I don't? !
Yan Wenmo looked at his chaise longue hesitantly, his expression was quite conflicted. This was the chaise longue he bought, if he didn't lie on it, someone else would lie on it?! This was too uneconomical, wasn't it?!
Xie Xiaofeng did not give her a chance to hesitate. Seeing that she didn't say anything, she simply dragged her away. Yan Wenmo was dragged away like a chicken. Before she could even struggle, she disappeared from everyone's sight.
Seeing Yan Wenmo leave, Ouyang Xian was rushed forward by someone before he could even sit on the chaise longue.
Jiang Wenbai, who was originally on guard duty, was lying on the chaise longue with a calm face, looking at his third senior brother with innocence.
Ouyang Xian looked at his junior brother who was enjoying himself lying on the chaise longue, and couldn't help but grit his teeth and said indignantly:
"Aren't you on night watch?!"
Jiang Wenbai took the blanket handed over by Xuanyuan Jing with a rogue look on his face, and said confidently:
"There are no wild animals on this hillside."
Seeing his shameless face, Ouyang Xian couldn't help but curse:
"You sleep here, then I sleep there?!"
Jiang Wenbai was about to speak when he heard Xuanyuan Jing beside him speak cautiously:
"Third Senior Brother"
Hearing this, Ouyang Xian's eyes lit up instantly. His expression was quite subtle, and even his tone was somewhat flattering and hopeful as he spoke:
"Junior sister, you talk, I'm listening!!"
Seeing his expectant expression, Xuanyuan Jing couldn't help but take out a table of the same height as the dining table from her Qiankun bag, and then aligned the table with the dining table, took out the bedding and handed it to Ouyang Xian, saying seriously:
"Brother, I use this table to place medicinal herbs. It's not very useful anyway. Since you have no place to sleep, just use two tables together to make do for the night."
She spoke sincerely and earnestly, but Ouyang Xian felt something in his heart suddenly break. He looked at Xuanyuan Jing with a wronged look on his face. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Shangguan Zhi's warning voice:
"Third Junior Brother, don't push your luck."
Hearing this, Ouyang Xian knew he had no choice, so he could only say dejectedly:
"Oh well"
Seeing that everyone had a place to sleep, Xuanyuan Jing left. As soon as Xuanyuan Jing left, Jiang Wenbai, who was sleeping on the chaise longue, burst into laughter.
There was a hint of mockery and gloating in that laughter, which made Ouyang Xian feel extremely ashamed and angry. Therefore, he couldn't help but pick up a stone on the ground and threw it at Jiang Wenbai without thinking.
As fellow apprentice for many years, Jiang Wenbai naturally knew Ouyang Xian's temperament. Therefore, he quickly dodged the stone that was about to hit him and laughed out loud again.
Originally, Ouyang Xian wanted to take action, but there were no more stones in the cave. He looked angrily at Jiang Wenbai, who was laughing so hard that he couldn't breathe, and began to spread the bedding indignantly.
While making the bed, he kept complaining:
"Laugh, laugh, laugh. What's so funny? Just die of laughter."
