Daily life in the Zhang family

Ling Wanqing arrived home before Su Yu. She adjusted her mood slightly, returning to her usual self.

Continuing to change like this, she didn't know if she would run into any problems.

At this moment, Su Yu was at the entrance of the Star Sea Sect, preparing to enter. Just as Su Yu was about to go in, someone called out to him, "Is that Elder Su?"

Su Yu turned back to see a young woman, appearing to be no more than sixteen or seventeen years old.

Su Yu looked at the way she was looking at him, "Yes, what is it, Little Girl? Is there something you need?"

"It's nothing, I'm just a bit excited to meet Elder Su so closely."

"Elder Su, you definitely don't know me, but I have always admired both you and Elder Ling very much."

"Back when I saw you two in the city, I understood what it was that I needed. At that moment, I wanted to join the Star Sea Sect and become a Disciple of Qin Island."

"I just thought I'd come to see the Star Sea Sect today, and I didn't expect to run into you, Elder Su."

Su Yu smiled, "Little Girl, keep it up. I'll be waiting for you at Qin Island."

"Really? That's wonderful! With your words, Elder Su, I will definitely work hard to join the Star Sea Sect."

"Mm, I believe in you. I have some matters to attend to, so I'll be going now."

The Little Girl nodded happily.

Su Yu had encountered many such situations; it was the same back in the Southern Region.

Perhaps in the eyes of some, you are nothing, merely an inconspicuous existence within the Sect.

Perhaps there is an opportunity, or perhaps not, but in the eyes of some, you are an existence they yearn for, a goal for them to strive towards in their hearts.

When you become that goal, you must set a good example, right?

The Aptitude of that Little Girl just now was decent; there would be no problem for her to join the Star Sea Sect.

There were actually quite a few people who came for him and Ling Wanqing, but most were just Dao Companions.

The two of them had a small reputation within the circle of the Dao of the Zither.

Su Yu returned home, and Ling Wanqing looked at him, "You're back. Did something happen? You look like you're thinking about something."

"It's nothing, I just met a Little Girl at the entrance."

Su Yu recounted what had happened.

"Is that so? I've encountered that a few times as well, and some have already become Disciples of Qin Island."

"As an Elder, one should indeed encourage others when the time is right."

Ling Wanqing smiled, "It seems our Su Yu is quite well-liked by the Disciples."

"Is that so?"

Su Yu's eyes shifted as he leaned in close to Ling Wanqing, "Aren't you the same? Perhaps there is also a Disciple who admires you very much, right?"

Hearing these words from Su Yu, Ling Wanqing thought that this guy really says whatever comes to his mind.

But she wasn't afraid now; her status was different.

Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu with a cold gaze, "You've been very fond of talking back to me lately, haven't you?"

Previously, she had been passive, but now it was different; she had to settle the score from before.

Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing's expression and thought, *Oh no.*

"No, how could I dare? Whatever you say is the truth."

Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu with a playful, teasing gaze, "Good. Don't worry, I won't do anything these next few days."

Seeing this, Su Yu thought, *Why do I get the feeling that doesn't seem likely?*

Su Yu knew that the roles had reversed; Ling Wanqing definitely wanted to retaliate for his previous behavior.

Sure enough, for the next few days, Su Yu was tormented by Ling Wanqing.

Su Yu looked at the virtuous-looking Ling Wanqing, who was sipping tea.

She had finally returned to normal; it seemed she had finished venting. *No, the things I did over there must all be paid back.*

"You're awake. I've brewed some tea for you."

Su Yu sat to the side, "By the way, Elder Xiang Mu is coming back today."

"I know. He just sent me a message. He has also brought Tu Luoning back this time, but he does not intend to tell the Sect that Tu Luoning is from Tushan."

Su Yu considered this, "That is probably for the best. After all, matters regarding Tushan are somewhat special, and Tu Luoning's status in Tushan is not ordinary."

"If people found out about Tu Luoning's identity, something might go wrong."

Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu, "Let's prepare. They will be here shortly."

"I'll go prepare some other things, you go and prepare to cook some good dishes to receive them."

"After all, it's their first time visiting our home; we must fulfill our duties as hosts, right?"

"Leave it to me."

After saying this, Su Yu went to the kitchen, and Ling Wanqing went to prepare some other ingredients. Su Yu still had many ingredients in his storage space.

There were even very rare ingredients, but for the moment, he couldn't take them out.

He would take out some normal ones first.

The rest would be fine once Ling Wanqing brought them over.

The two of them busied themselves, just like an ordinary couple when guests come to visit.

Before long, Xiang Mu and the other arrived in the courtyard of Su Yu's home.

Tu Luoning looked at the surrounding environment and layout, "Elder Su's place is truly beautiful, with such a great Concept."

Tu Luoning looked at the two in the kitchen, their ordinary yet warm appearance.

"It's so nice, the two of them. I can't bear to disturb them."

Xiang Mu smiled, "Indeed."

Ling saw the two arrive, "I'll go receive them."

"Mm, go ahead. Leave the rest to me."

Ling Wanqing went outside and saw Xiang Mu and the other arrive, "You're here. Please, sit."

"Miss Tu, will you be going back this time?"

"I won't be going back. Wherever he is, I will be."

"That's wonderful."

"Wait a moment, the food will be ready soon."

And so, Su Yu busied himself preparing the meal, while Ling Wanqing entertained the guests.

A short while later, Su Yu finished his preparations and sat beside Ling Wanqing.

"It's ready. You two shouldn't be polite; consider this our welcome for Miss Tu coming to our Star Sea Sect."

Tu Luoning looked at the dishes, her taste buds completely stimulated.

What was going on? This was the first time she had such a feeling; usually, she did not eat.

Moreover, this aroma made her unable to resist wanting to taste it.

Xiang Mu spoke up, "You might not know, but I would dare to call Elder Su's cooking skills the best in the world."

Tu Luoning picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece, and put it in her mouth.

In an instant, it was as if she had entered the clouds; the texture was wonderful, and the taste was superb.

No wonder Xiang Mu would say such things.

"It's delicious."

Seeing this, Su Yu said, "I'm glad you like it."

Next, the four of them chatted about quite a few topics.

Su Yu looked at Xiang Mu, "You haven't told the Sect about Miss Tu yet, have you?"

"No, I'll go explain it later. Anyway, I am also an Elder of the Sect; a simple registration will suffice, and I can still avoid revealing Luoning's identity to the Sect."

The three of them chatted simply with Tu Luoning about some matters regarding the Star Sea Sect, and then the two prepared to leave.

After all, the two of them still had things to do.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing waved at the two, "You are welcome to come again next time."

Su Yu still enjoyed this kind of life very much.

Su Yu watched the two leave, and he also had work to do.
