Play Cards Well

Guan Yue was envious of those who were more brilliant and gifted than her but never bore any grudge against them. 

Shen Xi was wordless. Judging by the way Shu Baiyu and Guan Yue got along, the teacher and student were very close, and some may say they were more like mother and daughter. 

Ms. Shu Baiyu was a sophisticated fairy who did not marry nor have any children.

Guan Yue was twenty-five years old. She had the bearing of a dancer, and her cool-tone fair skin, in particular, gave out an illusion of detached ethereality about her. 

It was a pure delight to watch the pair sitting together, having this divine energy to them as they shared a cheerful conversation.

Guan Yue half-jokingly asked Shen Xi, "Are you really not interested to be my junior? I will take care of you, give you all the good food and fun in the world. I'll give you anything and everything you want. Think about it."
