Chapter 15 – Brandon Jiang, do you happen to like me?
"Brandon Jiang?"
Chu Jun's puzzled voice came from inside the room, followed by:
"Come in first."
As soon as the words fell, the courtyard door slowly opened.
Brandon Jiang respectfully acknowledged and walked into the house.
The room was filled with the scent of herbs. Chu Jun's wounds were wrapped in bandages, and she had changed into new clothes.
Even though she had received some treatment, her aura was still weak, and her delicate face was extremely pale.
Her expression remained as calm and wooden as ever, as she asked:
"Brandon Jiang, what brings you here?"
Brandon Jiang didn't speak. He gently patted his storage bag, summoning ninety medicinal puppets and placing them in front of the somewhat confused Chu Jun.
Then, he respectfully said:
"Today was my first alchemy class. If I hadn't learned some knowledge from you, I wouldn't have even gotten a C-grade evaluation."
"These ninety medicinal puppets are all the rewards I received for getting a B-grade evaluation. Please accept them to aid in your recovery."
After realizing he couldn't afford alchemy books, Brandon Jiang changed his plan.
If he couldn't acquire alchemy knowledge, he would get close to someone who had it.
Among the people he knew, only Senior Sister Chu Jun seemed willing to teach others alchemy.
Since he currently didn't need to consume people for cultivation, he decided to take a chance with these ninety medicinal puppets.
If successful, he would have a lifeline in Patricia Qing's class.
However, the possibility of failure was high. He didn't know what kind of person Chu Jun was. If she refused, that was one thing, but if she accepted the puppets and still didn't teach him alchemy, he couldn't fight her and would have to accept his loss.
Brandon Jiang was gambling.
Gambling everything for his life!
Chu Jun looked at the medicinal puppets in front of her and, after a moment of silence, seriously said:
"Brandon Jiang, I've completely fallen out with Patricia Qing. From now on, I probably won't be able to get a C-grade or higher evaluation, so these ninety medicinal puppets are very important to me. I really want them."
"But you need to think it through. If it gets out that you gave me resources for healing, Patricia Qing will be displeased with you, and you might end up like me."
Without hesitation, Brandon Jiang smiled faintly and said:
"Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister, but I was prepared for this when I stepped through this door."
Chu Jun was slightly taken aback:
"Brandon Jiang..."
"Senior Sister, please don't try to dissuade me. I won't take these medicinal puppets back."
Brandon Jiang waved his hand, his tone resolute.
In the Heavenly Lotus Sect, there were no men, and it was common for women to become Dao companions.
As far as Chu Jun knew, only Dao companions or family members would be so unconditionally good to someone.
"What?"
Brandon Jiang blinked, looking at Chu Jun's shy expression, completely stunned.
Senior Sister Chu Jun, do you have a misunderstanding about feelings?
I was just being a little nice to you; you don't need to fall in love with me.
This situation was completely unexpected for Brandon Jiang.
His mind raced as he quickly thought of a countermeasure.
If he agreed, he would gain a Dao companion out of nowhere.
A quick look at bit.ly/3iBfjkV will leave you more fulfilled.
If he refused, Chu Jun might get angry and kick him out, which would be disastrous.
After much thought, Brandon Jiang finally came up with a not-so-great solution.
He looked up, gazing into Chu Jun's beautiful eyes with a mix of seriousness and self-deprecation, and bitterly smiled:
"Senior Sister, you have a noble character and stunning beauty. Which girl wouldn't like you?"
"But you are like a fairy in the sky, and I am like dust on the ground. The gap between us is like heaven and earth. How dare I reach for you?"
"Maybe only when I reach the peak of Qi Refining will I have the courage to take that step."
Hearing Brandon Jiang's heartfelt yet restrained confession, Chu Jun couldn't help but clutch her clothes tightly, her gaze softening as she said:
"Brandon Jiang, don't worry. As long as I can get through this ordeal, I will help you reach the peak of Qi Refining as soon as possible!"
"Then, we can become Dao companions."
Brandon Jiang immediately showed a look of joy, nodding quickly while feeling relieved inside.
He had managed to get through it and even gained more favor.
Now, he and Chu Jun were on the same boat, and all of Chu Jun's knowledge could be used for his benefit.
"Senior Sister, let's not talk about this for now. You should focus on healing."
Brandon Jiang quickly urged.
Chu Jun nodded, reaching for a medicinal puppet and using it as a sacrificial furnace to absorb its energy.
Streams of spiritual energy descended from the sky, and Chu Jun's face gradually regained its color.
Chu Jun looked at Brandon Jiang tenderly and said:
"Brandon Jiang, come join me."
Brandon Jiang waved his hand:
"Senior Sister, you go ahead. I told you these are for you. I can't take them from you."
"Watching you absorb spiritual energy is enough for me. Just seeing you is already very satisfying."
