Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 263 - 262: Master Is So Beautiful, Much Prettier Than Jinyu
Nowadays, Tianyi Academy is extremely strict about visits from powerful figures.
Every time Shi Yuezhu goes, there’s always a strong figure from the Academy accompanying her.
Such management indeed ensures the safety of the Academy’s students better.
Shi Yuezhu does not want to go to Tianyi Academy to find Shen Han, always feeling as though she is being watched.
Su Jinyu went back to Tianyi Academy again.
When Shen Han saw her, Su Jinyu felt that his previously relaxed brows furrowed once more.
"My mentor said that she can accompany us for this trip.
With her ensuring our safety, you need not worry about any danger.
Moreover, my mentor said, as fellow sword cultivators, we can discuss our cultivation insights along the way...
Are you interested..."
In fact, this trip to explore the Secret Realm is not just to fulfill the condition I owe to Shen Han.
Now, she feels that a lot of what her father said is actually correct.
Compared to Shen Ye, Shen Han is indeed the more suitable partner.
According to Su Zhensheng’s method, by appearing more in front of Shen Han, she could let him truly know her.
When he finds out that she is different from the preconceived notions, his heart will be touched, and he will fall...
But when Shen Han heard her words, his expression didn’t change much.
"I will ask Mr. Zhong if it’s possible to reschedule the Academy’s Secret Realm practice to another day.
If possible, I can go with you."
Su Jinyu nodded and waited briefly outside the courtyard.
Shen Han came back in less than a quarter of an hour after leaving.
He agreed to Su Jinyu’s invitation to go for the practice together.
The date was set for June 16, and according to Shen Han, the Academy’s practice was postponed to the next month.
On the way back, the more Su Jinyu thought about it, the more odd it felt.
When her mentor didn’t go along the dates coincided exactly with the Academy’s practice.
When her mentor decided to go along, the Academy’s practice could be postponed to the next month.
Between the brows and eyes of Su Jinyu, she sensed a sliver of something amiss.
Before leaving Tianyi Academy, she considered a moment and then quickly turned back.
Along the way, she found a Tianyi student and inquired about the small courtyard where Mr. Zhong stayed.
This Tianyi student was also enthusiastic, seeing how polite Su Jinyu was, he directly led the way and guided her to Mr. Zhong’s courtyard.
Seeing Su Jinyu visiting, Zhong Nan was a bit surprised.
Tianyi Academy seemed to have no connection with her.
"Mr. Zhong, I am Su Jinyu from the Su Family.
I came today because I wanted to invite Shen Han to go out and explore the Secret Realm together.
After all, I still owe Shen Han a condition and I want to repay it through this.
But I heard that this month, Shen Han is supposed to go out for practice with Tianyi Academy?
If that’s the case, I’ll invite him again next month."
Su Jinyu bowed slightly as a courtesy, after all, being a daughter from the Su Family, she was quite upright in public.
Upon knowing Su Jinyu’s intention, Zhong Nan immediately shook his head.
"If you want to invite Shen Han to explore the Secret Realm, this month would be more suitable.
Tianyi Academy’s practice is next month, not this month as you heard."
"I see...
Thank you, Mr. Zhong, Jinyu understands now."
Su Jinyu bid farewell with a bow, and then left Tianyi Academy.
As she had thought, the reason given prior for refusal was simply a lie Shen Han made up.
The claim about coinciding with the Academy’s practice was just an excuse to brush her off.
But why, the second time, did Shen Han agree so easily?
Because he heard there would be discussions on the cultivation method along the way?
It doesn’t seem likely to be the reason.
If not this reason, then it must be because...
Her mentor would be going too?
Su Jinyu felt like she discovered something significant.
After experiencing some things, Su Jinyu’s evaluation of Shen Han actually changed.
The previous opinions about him being ungrateful and of poor character have become outdated.
It was her error in judgment, listening partially to the one-sided words of Shen Ye and Shen Ao.
Actually, Shen Han is not at least of such poor character.
He once had an opportunity to make demands of her, could have made some excessive demands, but Shen Han did not.
Her impression of Shen Han has indeed improved.
But now, she senses something amiss.
It seems Shen Han didn’t make those excessive demands because he simply doesn’t care about her...
He seems to have thoughts about her mentor...
No concrete evidence, but this speculation took root in Su Jinyu’s heart.
Returning to Rain Listening Pavilion, Shi Yuezhu walked over.
"So, is Shen Han willing to go together?"
Upon hearing Shi Yuezhu’s question, Su Jinyu did not immediately answer but raised her gaze to stare at her mentor.
Her serious gaze prompted Shi Yuezhu to lightly tap her.
"What’s going on with you, child?
Why are you staring at your mentor..."
Su Jinyu stepped closer, reaching out her hands to gently embrace Shi Yuezhu’s left arm.
"Mentor, you are truly beautiful, much more so than Jinyu..."
Su Jinyu sighed a little, this sentence reflecting her true thoughts.
"What’s with you today, child.
Why are you talking nonsense..."
Shi Yuezhu gently pinched Su Jinyu’s arm, the relationship between the mentor and disciple was quite harmonious.
"Jinyu just couldn’t help but express an admiration, and Mentor, you are indeed beautiful, it’s hardly nonsense..."
"Suddenly speaking these things, do you have something on your mind?"
Shi Yuezhu pulled Su Jinyu to sit down, with some concern on her face.
"Is it because of Shen Ye?
A man so indifferent, why trouble yourself over him, Jinyu?
There are many young and talented noblemen in the Capital City, finding someone truly compatible is the right path."
Hearing her mentor’s words, Su Jinyu shook her head. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
She did not continue on this subject.
Leaning against Shi Yuezhu, Su Jinyu couldn’t help but ask.
"Mentor, if you were to find a partner, what type should he be?"
Upon hearing this question, Shi Yuezhu couldn’t help but frown.
"What kind of question is that, child..."
"Come on, tell me, Mentor..."
Shi Yuezhu couldn’t refuse her.
"What I think is that even if I lost all my cultivation, we could still be together, supporting each other.
Not be abandoned due to a decline in status or misfortune...
To sum it up, I hope the person has a pure nature and high character."
Su Jinyu nodded upon hearing this.
She actually agreed with her mentor’s words.
But not entirely, in Su Jinyu’s eyes, the strength and background of her partner were just as important.
Or rather, more important.
Su Jinyu didn’t bring up her suspicions from today in conversation.
They were actually just whimsical thoughts.
Perhaps Shen Han agreed to the practice because he wanted her mentor to offer him some guidance.
Without any other ulterior motives.
After all, her mentor is a strong figure in the Immortal Realm, and she practices the Sword Dao.
Such guidance would indeed be greatly beneficial for Shen Han.
If during the practice, she really finds Shen Han showing any improper behavior, Su Jinyu could expose it then, not too late.
