He was truly an orphan.<\/p>\n<p>Chu Jiu was also an orphan, so he wanted her to keep him company.<\/p>\n<p>When Chu Jiu first arrived at Medicine King Valley, she was quiet but efficient and intelligent. She learned medicine, poisons, and martial arts quickly. Her master always said that if he had found Chu Jiu earlier, she probably wouldn\u2019t have become his master\u2019s only successor.<\/p>\n<p>From then on, Chu Jiu, four years younger than him, treated him like a sister, caring for him as his master. He told her they were equals and not to always call him \u201cmaster\u201d or \u201cyoung master,\u201d but Chu Jiu seemed not to listen.<\/p>\n<p>She only remembered what her master had told her.<\/p>\n<p>Her master forbade her to be loyal to him for life, warning her that if she ever dared to betray him or do anything to harm him, she would suffer a terrible death.<\/p>\n<p>Chu Jiu had deep feelings for her master, regarding him as her savior. He had also taught her a great deal. After his passing, she cried her heart out, becoming even more silent than usual.<\/p>\n<p>Long Ting stayed by her side, comforting her, and it took him half a year to help her recover from her grief.<\/p>\n<p>After that, she became his shadow; wherever he went, she was there, his closest and most skilled bodyguard.<\/p>\n<p>Long Ting and she had grown up together, sharing an eighteen-year bond. He had never treated her as a servant, but as a partner, a friend, even a childhood sweetheart. But Chu Jiu was stubborn.<\/p>\n<p>While her heart and soul were truly devoted to him, she saw him as her master and herself as his servant, insisting on being his bodyguard. Even though she couldn\u2019t defeat him, she always rushed to his aid whenever danger arose.<\/p>\n<p>Time and again, she shielded him from harm, leaving him feeling both heartache, anger, and helplessness.<\/p>\n<p>He was burdened with a deep-seated hatred, and before avenging his family, he didn\u2019t want to consider marriage. Who knew if he\u2019d even live to marry? No matter how his adoptive mother and master tried to persuade him, he refused.<\/p>\n<p>Long Ting wanted to say that Chu Jiu was just his bodyguard, but when that stubborn yet cold and beautiful face flashed through his mind, he ultimately didn\u2019t say it. He knew he wasn\u2019t heartless towards Chu Jiu.<\/p>\n<p>It was just that with his revenge unfulfilled, he dared not consider feelings.<br \/>\n\u201cAunt Ya, please let me have a proper meal,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Long Ting said with a smile. \u201cWhen I go home, my mother-in-law scolds me, my master scolds me, all the elders are pressuring me to get married, I can\u2019t even eat in peace. Now that I\u2019ve come here to see Beibei, you\u2019re all pressuring me again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He even pointed at Beibei, \u201cEven the little girl is pressuring me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBrother Ting, I\u2019m not a little girl anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn our eyes, you will always be a little girl, everyone\u2019s little sister.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In his childhood, there were mostly brothers, only two girls, and then Junxiao was born. With so few girls, they were especially precious, and everyone doted on these three little sisters.<\/p>\n<p>After Junxiao was born, Long Ting didn\u2019t have much contact with this youngest sister. He spent most of his time with Junyan and Beibei, and his affections naturally leaned towards these two sisters.<\/p>\n<p>Ouyang Ya laughed, \u201cAlright, we won\u2019t rush you. You\u2019re over thirty, you have your own ideas. We\u2019re just offering some advice. It\u2019s up to you what to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you encounter difficulties in the future, just ask. You\u2019re not alone; we all have you backed up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Long Ting said gratefully, \u201cThank you, Aunt Ya. I won\u2019t hesitate to ask for your help if I need anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He knew he wasn\u2019t without support; on the contrary, many people were supporting him. But revenge was his own business, and he didn\u2019t want his families to get involved.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLong Ting, you must not have eaten yet since you rushed over. We\u2019ve already eaten. If you want to have dinner with Bei Bei, stay a little longer and go back after dinner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Long Ting said, \u201cI came after lunch. I know I\u2019m running late. Please trouble Uncle Liu to cook some good food tonight; I want to eat my fill.\u201d Zhan Yuan laughed<\/p>\n<p>, \u201cDon\u2019t worry, I guarantee you\u2019ll eat until you\u2019re stuffed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Everyone laughed.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Chu Jiu , whose real name was Long Chuxue, was an orphan whom her master had taken in eighteen [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18863","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-married-at-first-sight"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18863"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18863\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18926,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18863\/revisions\/18926"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18863"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18863"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
