Yue Shifang found it a bit amusing, "Are you using the pretext of making tea to teach me a lesson?"
"Of course not, I’m just speaking from the heart!" Xue An said with a smile.
Yue Shifang sighed lightly, "Actually, there’s no need to beat around the bush to tell me what you think. You can just tell me directly."
Xue An remained silent, gently sipping his tea, as if the teacup in front of him was the most delightful thing in the world.
After a long time, Yue Shifang finally felt a bit helpless.
"I’m genuinely curious, my sister is so beautiful and has such extraordinary talent, are you really not interested at all?"
Xue An shook his head, "No!"
If someone else had said this, Yue Shifang surely wouldn’t believe it.
But since it came from Xue An’s mouth, Yue Shifang had no choice but to believe it.
Because he had refused his sister’s affections right in front of him.
"Sometimes I really wonder how your heart works, to be so ruthless! You must know how proud my sister is, and yet she was willing to accept the fact that you are already married because of you, but you refused her without hesitation, this..."
Yue Shifang couldn’t find words to describe Xue An.
"No need to look, the reason I’m so heartless is that I already have someone I love. Since my heart belongs to another, why should I get involved in worldly affairs?"
"So, I’m sorry!" Xue An said softly.
Yue Shifang fell silent, and after a long time, he let out a deep sigh, "No need to apologize, you haven’t done anything wrong to me, nor to my sister, she just fell in love with someone she shouldn’t have!"
"Just like you and Commander-in-Chief Guan Nan?" Xue An blinked as he spoke.
This sentence successfully stifled the rest of Yue Shifang’s sigh.
He glared at Xue An fiercely, "I kind of understand Cha Wenliang’s evaluation of you!"
"Oh? What evaluation?"
"He said sometimes you are admirable, but other times you are so detestable!"
"Haha, thanks for the compliment!" Xue An raised his cup, motioning to Yue Shifang opposite him.
Yue Shifang also raised his tea cup, the two clinked and then drank it all in one go.
"Did you meet him?" Xue An put down the tea cup and said calmly.
"Yes!"
"He sure talks fast!"
"You can’t blame him, after all, something as major as the Pharmacists’ Alliance gathering, I have no reason not to know!"
Yue Shifang smiled at Xue An as he spoke.
"To be honest, his plan was quite clever, having you accompany him! This way, not only would he have an extra bodyguard on the road, but once at the gathering, your understanding of souls would greatly help him shine in the Pharmacists’ Alliance."
Xue An also smiled, "I’m aware of all that, but I must see this lively scene for myself!"
"Well said, come, let’s have another cup!"
The two of them drank another cup of tea.
"Why did you come looking for me? Surely it’s not just to learn the tea ceremony and probe my intentions!" Xue An raised an eyebrow.
"It’s not that simple at all!"
Saying this, Yue Shifang’s expression turned serious.
"Xue An, what I told you at the Ancestral Hall is still valid. Are you at all interested in joining my Yue Clan?"
Xue An also seriously shook his head, "I’m sorry, I can’t join!"
