26. Seed of Doubt (Part - 1)

At this time, Xiao Yan also noticed that Xun'er was looking at Xiao Feng the whole time during the test and he suddenly felt bitter in his heart. And the fact that Xiao Feng was much more handsome than him also added fuel to the emotions in his heart.

Xun'er turned towards Xiao Yan and said, " Brother Xiao Yan, don't be discouraged. I believe, you can definitely get back your cultivation talent and show all of them how wrong they are."

" Am I still worthy of you calling me Brother? ", Xiao Yan said with a wry smile.

At that time, Xiao Feng happened to pass by them and he nodded with a smile to both of them and left. Seeing the leaving back of the handsome youth with a sunny temperament, Xun'er couldn't help but think, " Both of them are of the same age. Why is there such a difference in temperament? One has an average talent and strength but still smiles, always having a happy expression and the other was a genius before but due to lack of strength became isolated and lost confidence."

Thinking this Xun'er shook her head and turned to look at Xiao Yan only to see that he has left a while ago. She stomped her foot in anger saying, "Hmph...I am trying to encourage you here and you left without telling me." Little did she know that when she shook her head before, Xiao Yan thought that Xun'er was disappointed in him and so he left.

Xun'er also left the training field and started walking to her courtyard when she saw Xiao Feng walking in front of her with two apples in his hands. She called out instinctively, " Cousin Xiao Feng" even before thinking anything.

Xiao Feng turned around to see a beautiful girl with a flawless face and an exquisite body looking at him with a hesitating look.

Infact Xun'er herself doesn't know why she called out to him all of a sudden. Xiao Feng was also surprised to see Xun'er taking the initiative to talk. He could only relate it to the 40% affection Xun'er has for him.

" Miss Xun'er, are you going back to your courtyard? ", Xiao Feng tried to ease the atmosphere by speaking first.

" Yes, where are you going? "

" I am also heading towards my courtyard. I guess we live in the same direction. "

Seeing that the situation was turning awkward again, Xiao Feng extended his hand with an apple and said, " Miss Xun'er, do you want an apple ?"

" Um...no...I am fine."

" Miss Xun'er, you don't know, an apple a day keeps the doctor away. "

" What does that mean? ", Xun'er asked with a curious face.

" Um..well...it...it means that eating apples are good for your health. But if Miss Xun'er doesn't want, I won't force it.", Xiao Feng unconsciously used a proverb of his previous life which made him quite flustered. He was about to retract his hand when Xun'er suddenly took the apple from his hand and said, " Since, it's good for health, I will keep it. "
