63 A Busy Person (2/2)
He gently pulled Yun Bei Fen onto his lap and brushed his hair back, trying to smooth out the black strands. ”You were thinking too much. I just woke up early and didn't want to disturb you so I went and had a chat with your Master. There's so much that I'm able to learn from him. Elder Baili has really opened my eyes.”
This would've been really good if Yun Bei Fen hadn't had such a look of doubt on his face. It was as if he wanted to hammer home the point that he didn't believe that his Master was able to teach his beloved senior martial brother anything. Obviously, Mei Chao Bing was so great. What was there that his Master could teach him.?
Mei Chao Bing sighed. ”Anyway, we had a nice chat and you don't have to be afraid at all. It's still nice to see that you worry about me so much though.”
Yun Bei Fen perked up at that and didn't bother about what his Master had done or not done anymore. It was good as long as his senior martial brother was happy. And he seemed to be. Thus he happily snuggled up against his chest and closed his eyes. Mn, being with senior martial brother Mei was still the best!
Mei Chao Bing smiled and patted Yun Bei Fen's back. ”Alright, since you're awake, let's go brush your hair and then we should head out. Since we finally arrived in the border region we should go and take part in the mission too.”
Yun Bei Fen sat up straight and finally turned back to his Master, looking at him with wide eyes. ”Master, your promise still counts, doesn't it?”
Baili Chao raised his brows. ”What promise?” He honestly couldn't remember. This brat had run off so long ago, he couldn't expect him to still know whatever he had promised before that, could he?
Yun Bei Fen furrowed his brows and pursed his lips, looking very much like his Master had slighted him. ”How can that be! You clearly promised me that I could do the mission together with senior martial brother Mei! You wouldn't want to go back on your word now, would you?”
Elder Baili's lips twitched. Right, naturally, it was about that Mei Chao Bing. Why had he expected anything else? Wasn't it always about him? Well, there was nothing he could do anymore. His little disciple had already been utterly lost.
He sighed and waved at the two of them. ”Of course not. Since I promised, then that's how it will be. The two of you should head out now. Mei Chao Bing is right that you shouldn't waste any more time.”
Yun Bei Fen didn't need to be told twice. He jumped to his feet and grabbed Mei Chao Bing's hand, trying to pull him to his feet. ”Did you hear that? Didn't I tell you my Master was the greatest? If he promises something, then he'll definitely keep to his words.”
Mei Chao Bing nodded. ”Mn, Elder Baili is certainly the best.
The Elder already wanted to puff up his chest at these words when Yun Bei Fen leaned down and kissed Mei Chao Bing. ”Of course, you're much better!”
Elder Baili's expression turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. ”You! Go and complete your mission now! Don't you dare come back before you haven't done something useful today!”
The little bunny only blinked his eyes. Why was his Master angry? Hadn't he just praised him? He really couldn't understand him sometimes.
