Chapter 144: Leave It to Fate
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Xue Fanxin healed Xue Batian’s meridians and dantian, she returned to her room to rest. Unexpectedly, she saw Ye Jiushang sitting inside drinking tea the moment she entered as if he had been waiting for her for a while.
Ye Jiushang put down the teacup in his hand and said with a deeper meaning, “Mountains topple and water flows. So in Little Xin’er’s heart, I am such an unreliable person.”
“Eavesdropping is not something a gentleman should do.” Xue Fanxin rolled her eyes, but she did not mind that Ye Jiushang had heard her conversation with Xue Batian.
Fortunately, she had not mentioned the Reverse Spirit Heaven Wheel.
“Little Xin’er, you’re becoming wary of me.” Ye Jiushang was especially unhappy that Xue Fanxin was on guard against him.
She was clearly fine outside the Tongxuan Realm. Why had she changed after she got here?

What went wrong?
“Ah Jiu, I’m not being wary of you. I just realized that the difference in our statuses is too great and…”
As well as the complicated royal family forces behind you.
If this was the Nanling Empire outside the Tongxuan Realm, if her grandfather was still the Duke, if she was still the Young Miss of the Duke’s Estate, she might be able to do whatever she wanted unrestrained. However, after coming to the Tongxuan Realm, she had become a nobody. Without any strength and background, she got too close to the high and mighty Ye Jiushang. No matter how much he protected her, as long as someone was bent on getting rid of her, she would die miserably.
Furthermore, she did not know Ye Jiushang at all. Clearly, he had another motive for suddenly pestering her.
Shouldn’t she be wary of someone she didn’t know and had ulterior motives?
“Little Xin’er, when will you believe me?” How could Ye Jiushang not know what Xue Fanxin was thinking? However, building up trust between people required time. This matter could not be rushed, and he had to let nature run its course.
“Trust is mutual. If you want me to trust you, you have to trust me first. Alright, alright. There are many things you don’t have to worry about. Just leave it up to fate. Ah Jiu, I’m penniless now. Can you lend me a little money? I promise I’ll return it to you in the future, including interest.” Xue Fanxin put away her serious expression and switched to a playful manner as she giggled.
She urgently needed spirit coins to buy a pill cultivating furnace.
“What do you want to buy? If you need anything, just tell the people in the residence to buy it.”
“Alright then. Send someone to buy a pill cultivating furnace for me.”
“Pill cultivating furnace? Do you know how to refine pills?”
“No.”
“Then why do you want a pill cultivating furnace?”
“Precisely because I don’t know how to. I need it to learn! Ah Jiu, I guarantee that I’ll definitely return the money to you. Can you help me?” Xue Fanxin begged sincerely with a fawning smile.
Although she did not intend to rely entirely on Ye Jiushang, they could still be friends. Shouldn’t friends help each other when they were in trouble?
When Ye Jiushang saw Xue Fanxin returning to her usual playful manner, he knew that she had adjusted herself. There were some things that she did not want to say, so he did not force her. He would wait for her.
“Alright, I’ll get someone to buy it for you. If you need anything in the future, just let the people in the residence know.”
“Yes, yes. You’re the only friend I have here. I won’t be polite. Also, I hope you won’t restrict my freedom and let me enter and leave the Lord’s Estate as I wish. If you can’t fulfill this request of mine, then I’ll think of a way to move elsewhere.”
“Do you have any other requests? If so, just tell me.” Ye Jiushang was filled with doting towards Xue Fanxin. His heart was as clear as a mirror since he knew what he had to do.
Little Xin’er was not an ordinary person. She had her own path to tread. If she was limited too much and he interfered too much in her affairs, it would affect her future. This was not a good thing for her.
On Little Xin’er’s path of cultivation, he only needed to help her in critical moments. He should let Little Xin’er do other things herself.. This was also a form of training.
