Senior Sister Is Too Weak and Cannot Take Care Of Herself (Transmigration) - Chapter 17

Tang Huan rattled on, quickly setting up all the items she had brought, afraid that Qin Su would object.

However, Qin Su didn’t say a single word until Tang Huan had finished arranging everything.

Seeing that Qin Su’s residence finally seemed to have escaped its shabby state, Tang Huan breathed a sigh of relief. She sat back at the table and smiled at Qin Su.

Qin Su had a kind of old-fashioned formality about her.

Following the rule of “no talking while eating,” she sat upright at the table, quietly eating. She seemed to be seriously following Tang Huan’s suggestion, only tasting a little of each dish.

Even though it was just ordinary food, the way she tasted it was as if she were savoring a gourmet meal. Every movement she made was as beautiful as a painting.

Qin Su is so beautiful!

Looking at the beauty in front of her, Tang Huan felt more and more delighted, and a sense of accomplishment grew in her heart.

This feeling was like playing a nurturing game from her previous life. In front of Tang Huan was the most beautiful model, and Tang Huan only wanted to do her best to make the beauty dress up beautifully, live well, eat well, and live a happy life.

“Senior Sister, how does the vegetarian meal taste?”

Tang Huan rested her chin on her hand and looked at Qin Su, unable to resist asking.

She thought she had put enough effort into the vegetarian meal, but seeing Qin Su seriously tasting it, she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. She felt as if she could have put more effort into it. And this residence wasn’t very spacious. Maybe she could expand it and dig two hot spring pools in the back, just like in her own residence…

“It’s very delicious. Junior Sister, you’ve gone to a lot of trouble.”

Qin Su put down her chopsticks and looked at Tang Huan with her beautiful eyes, speaking softly.

Even though Tang Huan knew that with Qin Su’s personality, she wouldn’t say anything bad, Tang Huan still breathed a sigh of relief. Her eyes immediately filled with a smile. “Senior Sister, don’t worry. There’s not a single bit of meat in this vegetarian meal. I just started making them, so I’m not that good yet. But in a while, I’ll definitely be able to make even more delicious vegetarian meals…”

“It’s good enough.”

Qin Su’s gaze rested on Tang Huan. Unlike the arrogance of the mysterious bird that used to be in this body, after Tang Huan entered it, her eyes seemed to be full of life at all times, making the body especially likable.

It seemed that everything was supposed to be this way…

Qin Su’s right hand under her sleeve moved slightly.

Looking at the lively, smiling face in front of her, a thought crossed her mind again. She wanted to pinch Tang Huan’s cheeks, which still had a bit of baby fat, and see her cute expression, like a frightened kitten, as she widened her eyes in surprise…

But Qin Su didn’t move.

A distant and blurry image flashed in her mind. Although time could dilute many things, that feeling seemed to be etched into Qin Su’s soul. In every moment that made Qin Su happy, her father’s reprimanding voice would repeatedly appear.

“They are all dead because of you and me!”

“Qin Su, look! Look closely at their bl00d! What right do you have? What right do you have to enjoy the peaceful and happy life you speak of in this world?”

…

She had, indeed, been the cause of one person’s death…

Qin Su lowered her eyes, and the slight urge in her heart completely disappeared, like a ripple on the water’s surface, leaving no trace behind.

“Junior Sister, you don’t need to put so much effort into these things. You are still young and in your prime. You should be sparring and gaining experience with the other disciples. It’s not worth it for you to spend so much thought on me.”

When she spoke again, Qin Su had once again returned to her gentle and indifferent self.

Tang Huan’s brows furrowed.

She didn’t expect Qin Su, who was only a few years older than the original owner, to act so old. Even the elders in the sect probably weren’t as old-fashioned as her.

This is just like the stubborn old people in the hospital ward! They clearly want their family and friends to stay with them, but they pretend to be “considerate” and tell them to leave, only to be secretly disappointed later…

Tang Huan pouted, ready to have a good talk with Qin Su about this. But then she heard Qin Su’s soft voice. “Junior Sister, do you like this residence very much?”

Huh?!

Tang Huan had prepared a whole speech to convince Qin Su, but she never expected Qin Su to say this out of the blue.

“Senior Sister, do you not like the way I decorated your residence?”

Tang Huan collected her thoughts. She thought she had figured out why Qin Su was asking this. She blinked and asked cautiously.

It’s finally here!

Tang Huan had prepared for Qin Su to be resistant when she was decorating. She thought she had already passed this stage, but she never expected Qin Su to bring it up after she had finished.

However, to Tang Huan’s surprise, Qin Su shook her head in response to her nervous gaze.

Qin Su didn’t say anything else.

Tang Huan carefully looked at Qin Su’s expression. Qin Su’s lowered eyes were as calm and clear as ever. It was impossible to read her emotions.

Tang Huan bit her lower lip.

She realized that Qin Su’s problem was more difficult than she had imagined.

But Tang Huan had one thing in abundance: patience.

To move Qin Su and make her feel the true meaning of life, to stop her from living like an ascetic, would probably take a long time.

But now, she had an opportunity to stay by Qin Su’s side.

“Senior Sister, you’ve figured me out! I do like this residence very much…”

With that thought, Tang Huan decided to go with the flow and follow Qin Su’s lead.

Her eyes darted around. She walked around the table and squatted in front of Qin Su, resting her chin on her hands. She grabbed Qin Su’s sleeve and showed her a flattering smile. “I don’t know why, but I really like the spiritual energy of the Baiwu Peak. Especially when I’m here with you, Senior Sister, my cultivation always goes much faster.”

“My dear Senior Sister, the reason I decorated your residence is that I plan to come here to cultivate often. I want to be more comfortable when I come here in the future…”

Tang Huan felt a little guilty. Although some of what she said was true and cultivating here was indeed beneficial, the original owner cultivated fire-based techniques, and the Baiwu Peak was filled with wood-based spiritual energy. Logically, Tang Huan should not benefit from being here. She didn’t know how to explain this.

“Is that so?”

Qin Su indeed asked a question. She spoke softly, as if she were asking Tang Huan, but also as if she were asking herself.

“It’s true!” Tang Huan felt incredibly guilty, but on the surface, she nodded hard and told Qin Su with conviction.

Qin Su lowered her eyes.

She let out a soft sigh of relief. For some reason, her heart didn’t feel as light as she had expected.

Qin Su frowned.

This feeling made her instinctively feel that something was wrong. She wanted to investigate further, but Tang Huan didn’t want to give her a chance to react.

“Senior Sister, Senior Sister!”

Qin Su was kind-hearted, but she wasn’t an idiot. Tang Huan was afraid that Qin Su would refuse her after she came to her senses. She secretly gritted her teeth, leaned closer, and grabbed Qin Su’s arm. She looked at Qin Su with an eager gaze. “Please, please…”

*******

In Tang Huan’s original world, everyone pitied her for her frailty, and when she acted spoiled, she almost always got her way. This time, Tang Huan wasn’t sure if her little act would work, but she had no other choice. She was taking a gamble.

The young girl’s bright eyes were filled with tears, like a newborn deer in the forest. Her voice was also very soft and sweet, like the sweet sticky rice balls Qin Su had just tasted…

When Qin Su met Tang Huan’s pleading gaze, she froze for a moment. She felt as if a part of her heart had suddenly caved in, becoming incredibly soft and tender.

Tang Huan didn’t understand, but Qin Su did. The body that Tang Huan was in was originally a ten-thousand-year-old Bodhi wood. Before, because the mysterious bird’s soul in this body was fire-based, it cultivated fire-based techniques. Now that the soul in the body had become Tang Huan, it could naturally unleash the body’s nature and instinctively be close to the spiritual energy on the Baiwu Peak.

She… likes this residence so much? So much that she would try to curry favor with me like this…

That makes sense. She’s just a lonely soul who has come here and is always on edge. She needs to establish herself in the cultivation world, so she naturally craves strength…

Forget it!

Qin Su took a deep breath, ignored the strange feeling in her heart when she met Tang Huan’s gaze, pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and nodded.

This residence is perfect for Tang Huan to cultivate. I’ll find some time to add more magical treasures that can enhance wood-based spiritual energy to the residence. Since Junior Sister likes it, I’ll just leave this residence to her when I leave in six months!
