Hard to be a master

On New Year's Eve, Guan Jingxuan thought that Shen Ziliu would come back, so she didn't stay in bed as usual, and got ready to clean Qingmengyuan, and then prepare a table of meals.Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning, he saw the apprentice who hadn't seen him for a long time was lying beside him with his clothes on his side, sleeping soundly with his arms on his head.

Guan Jingxuan was still a little confused when she just woke up, looking at Shen Ziliu who was close at hand, she couldn't tell if it was a dream or real.I haven't seen him for nearly half a year, and the youthful youthfulness on Shen Ziliu's face has almost faded away, and the edges and corners have become more distinct.At this time, although he fell asleep in a completely relaxed posture, he did not hide the handsomeness between his eyebrows and eyes.

It was still hot summer when Shen Ziliu entered the Cave Tianhu. At this time, he was only wearing a thin single-fitting shirt, and his undulating muscles supported the material, exuding a sense of vigor and strength.As if wanting to get closer to Guan Jingxuan, but afraid of waking him up, Shen Ziliu lay reclined on the bed, with his upper body leaning towards Guan Jingxuan, but half of his curled legs were hanging outside the edge of the bed.It was obviously an uncomfortable sleeping position, but Shen Ziliu slept extremely peacefully.

Guan Jingxuan slowly woke up, and after distinguishing that the scene in front of her was not a dream, a sense of steadfastness and peace of mind spontaneously emerged in her heart.Joy gathered in his heart like a trickle, and gradually overflowed, making the corners of his lips curl up involuntarily.It wasn't the first time he had seen Shen Ziliu's sleeping face, but he had the feeling that he had only seen it today.Shen Ziliu was facing the morning sun, the light shrouding his face was a bit dim, but in Guan Jingxuan's eyes, his facial features seemed to be clearer than usual.

After quietly watching Guan Jingxuan for a while, he realized that although Shen Ziliu's eyebrows, eyes, nose bridge, and lips were still familiar to him, they had quietly changed together.It is no longer the innocence and cuteness of a child, nor is it the youthful handsomeness of a teenager, but gradually reveals the maturity, handsomeness, firmness and stability of an adult man.

This little apprentice of his had already quietly grown up when he wasn't paying attention.

Unexpectedly, Guan Jingxuan lifted a corner of the quilt, stretched out a hand and tapped the tip of Shen Ziliu's nose lightly, and whispered "Welcome back".The next moment, he was pulled into a warm embrace.

Shen Ziliu rubbed against Guan Jingxuan's neck, took a deep breath, and said in a nasal voice, "Good morning, Master."

Guan Jingxuan was taken aback by the embrace, and said, "Didn't you fall asleep?"

Shen Ziliu rubbed against each other again, sighed contentedly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Well, I'm a little tired after breaking a sword array this morning."

Guan Jingxuan was pressed on the chest by Shen Ziliu, and through the thin fabric, he could clearly feel the other party's high body temperature and well-defined solid muscles. The whole person was wrapped in Shen Ziliu's breath, Guan Jingxuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Patting Shen Ziliu on the shoulder, Guan Jingxuan backed away slightly, and said, "Then lie in and sleep for a while, get up and clean up for the teacher, and let's have a better New Year's Eve at night."

Unexpectedly, Shen Ziliu lay down in it, but he didn't let Guan Jingxuan get out of bed, but hugged the person in his arms tightly again, wrapping both of them in the quilt.

"Master will accompany the disciple to rest for a while, and when he wakes up later, the disciple will help you clean up together."

Guan Jingxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Master, I've already woken up, and how can the two of us sleep well when we squeeze together?"

Shen Ziliu was unmoved at all, and hummed: "I don't care, I haven't seen Master for half a year, and I must make it up right now. Before the disciple wakes up, the Master can't even think about going anywhere."

Guan Jingxuan laughed, just now he thought he had grown up, but now he looks like a child again.But he just accepted Shen Ziliu's tricks, and he couldn't bear to break away from his embrace, so he sighed helplessly and let him hold him.

Sensing the relaxation of the person in his arms, Shen Ziliu's lips curled up in a triumphant arc.Before closing his eyes and falling asleep again, he lowered his head and kissed Guan Jingxuan's forehead lightly, and murmured, "Master, I miss you very much."

Guan Jingxuan froze for a moment, a trace of sweet emotion suddenly melted in her heart.

I miss you too.Guan Jingxuan said quietly in her heart.

"Go to sleep."

The master and the apprentice slept until noon after returning to the cage. Shen Ziliu was thinking about making Guan Jingxuan eat well, so he went straight to the kitchen when he got up together.In the afternoon, the two went to the nearest town at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains to buy some ingredients. When they came back, they were pleasantly surprised to find that Zi Lan had also returned, so the number of people spending New Year's Eve together changed from two to three.Shen Ziliu didn't mind at all, after the Shushan incident, Zi Lan was considered one of his own in various ways, and it would be nice if the days were more lively.

All afternoon, Shen Ziliu was busy in the kitchen. Guan Jingxuan wanted to help, but Shen Ziliu drove him out on the grounds that the oily smoke was too heavy, so he had to play chess and chat with Zilan in the front hall, greeting the former from time to time. The juniors and classmates who came to pay New Year's greetings.

Before New Years, there were no visitors to Qingmengyuan, but since the "rectification" in Shouhua Palace and the incident of You Mingjiu, the attitude of many juniors towards Guan Jingxuan has changed a lot.Especially when some juniors found that Guan Jingxuan was not only mild-tempered, but also knowledgeable, they liked to ask him some questions from time to time.Guan Jingxuan doesn't like to be nosy, but he is not unreasonable, so whenever a junior comes to ask for advice, he does not hesitate to answer them one by one.After coming and going, more and more juniors were willing to get close to him, and they called him Sui An with full respect, which made Guan Jingxuan sigh.
