Chapter 926: Chapter 292: Flashback! Words!

But just right.

It’s perfect that I don’t have to go looking for Bu Huoran; I can directly share the news of my departure later.

The two of them sat beside a small stone table in the courtyard, sipping tea face to face.

The clear tea was steaming, emitting a refreshing fragrance.

Bu Huoran took the initiative to ask, "President Yuchi, you went out with Tingyue today. What do you think of this little girl, Tingyue?"

How do I see her? With my eyes, of course, how else... Yuchi laughed easily and began to flatter without reservations:

"Sister Tingyue is indeed a graceful and gentle girl. Not to mention her beauty, which is quite reliable, but her composure and wisdom are truly remarkable as well."

"So being able to go out with Tingyue today has helped me understand Cuncha City even better. It’s no wonder she’s Mrs. Bu’s daughter; she’s truly an eye-opener."

Well, sweet talk... Just keep it coming... Bu Huoran clearly saw through everything.

However, without any intention of directly exposing it, she smiled and said:

"Tingyue just informed me of what happened. I didn’t expect President Yuchi to handle matters with such gentleness and decisiveness. It really warms others’ hearts upon hearing about it."

"And since Bu Tingyue is a bit shy, she’s actually quite grateful to you for standing up for her this time. But she was too embarrassed to say it herself, so she asked me to relay the message that she’s truly grateful for your support and considers you a respectable person."

"She also mentioned that if she has the opportunity to have tea with you again in the future, she’d personally prepare a pot of the finest tea for you."

Well, keep it up, more sweet talk... Yuchi also saw through some of it.

Would Bu Tingyue really say that? Probably not, it’s just her mother supporting her from behind. But like Bu Huoran, Yuchi had no intention of exposing it, responding instead with a bashful, boyish demeanor.

A shy brother, pouting modestly: "It’s Tingyue who overestimates me. I’m just an ordinary person, with nothing worth learning."

"I’m so unworthy."

"I let down the people who love me, and I’m sorry to Tingyue." Yuchi jokingly said with a leap of thought.

Bu Huoran couldn’t help but chuckle, casting a glance at Yuchi with her charming eyes, which had an undeniably captivating quality, even though she herself wasn’t a cultivator. If this woman practiced cultivation for a hundred or so years, she’d simply be a vixen-like figure.

Then, Bu Huoran stood up with a smile and poured a cup of tea for Yuchi, saying seriously, "President Yuchi, if you’re not in a hurry to leave this time and are planning to relax for a bit here in Cuncha City, I have a wonderful task for you that could earn some silver and gold."

A wonderful task?

Yuchi curiously looked at Bu Huoran, appreciating her for pouring the tea and signaling her to continue.

"Here’s the thing."

"Your visit to Cuncha City coincided perfectly, as tomorrow or the day after, a very important person will arrive. This person is the sect leader of the most prominent sect around Cuncha City, and she visits every year around this time to enjoy tea and tends to a shop."

"If you’re interested, I can introduce you to her. It’s just a matter of whether you’re in a hurry to leave or not, President Yuchi."

Bu Huoran finished speaking.

Yuchi clearly saw through Bu Huoran’s intentions.

This charming woman was obviously speaking in riddles, intentionally not clarifying everything with one sentence, and then directly asking him this question. In other words, if he said he was leaving immediately, then this matter would have nothing to do with him.

Only by admitting he planned to stay for a while would the other party be willing to disclose more.

Alright then. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Since that’s the case, Yuchi, driven by sheer curiosity, casually said:

"Mrs. Bu, my visit to Cuncha City is purely for leisure. Although the duration of my stay isn’t certain, at least I can linger for an indefinite period."

"Haha, that’s good."

Bu Huoran nodded with satisfaction. Although Yuchi didn’t specify how long he intended to stay, since he said so, there was no need for her to probe further about the length of his stay. That would appear petty compared to Bu Huoran’s composed way of handling the conversation.

"Well then, I wonder if President Yuchi knows the Courtesan?"

"Yes, I do."

Yuchi nodded: "Although I’ve never met the Courtesan or tasted her business, I have at least seen her. So, I wonder why Mrs. Bu suddenly brought up the Courtesan? Could there be some connection between these two matters?"

Yuchi couldn’t quite grasp it. What was Bu Huoran bringing up the Courtesan for? Don’t assume just because you have a bit of beauty, you can start fooling me.

Upon hearing this, Bu Huoran inwardly chuckled bitterly.

Oh? Are you saying, Yuchi, that you haven’t been with the Courtesan?

I don’t believe it!

With your talent and looks, who would believe you haven’t dallied with the Courtesan...
