Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2589: Chapter 2590: Guilty Conscience

The sound of footsteps came from behind, but Yue Qinghuan didn’t even turn her head. She just stared blankly at the horizon, softly murmuring.

"Why... Am I not even worth a goodbye from you?"

Upon hearing these words, Yue Shifang, who hurried over next, felt a tremor in his heart and couldn’t help but sigh.

"Alright, they’ve already left, and it’s no use saying anything now."

As soon as he said this, the Second Sister who came along glared fiercely at Yue Shifang, thinking to herself that this could ruin things.

Sure enough.

Yue Qinghuan slowly squatted down, buried her head in her arms, and cried bitterly in utter grievance.

This left Yue Shifang at a loss, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, as he looked to the Second Sister for help.

The Second Sister sighed helplessly, then crouched down and gently comforted, "Alright, alright, don’t cry. He just went back to The Multiverse for a bit, he’s not gone forever!"

"But... but what if he doesn’t come back?" Yue Qinghuan choked out.

"How could that be? Once he’s done with his business in The Multiverse, he’ll naturally come back!" the Second Sister said with a gentle smile.

At this moment, Yue Qinghuan looked up at her brother Yue Shifang, "Did you guys know he was going back to The Multiverse all along?"

Yue Shifang nodded, "He did mention it to me at the time..."

Before he could finish, the Second Sister abruptly interrupted him, giving him a covert kick and making frenzied eye signals.

Even Yue Shifang understood he had said the wrong thing again, so he immediately shut his mouth.

But it was too late; upon hearing Yue Shifang’s words, Yue Qinghuan started crying even louder.

"Why did you all know and not tell me? Does it mean he doesn’t like me at all?"

Yue Shifang felt his head pounding, utterly confused.

His entire life, what he feared most was women crying, especially his own sister crying.

This feeling was just the worst.

The Second Sister seemed to notice his helplessness and shook her head, pointing him away to prevent him from saying anything else disastrous at a critical moment.

Yue Shifang felt as if he had been granted amnesty and hurriedly ran far away.

After he left, the Second Sister then said to the sobbing Yue Qinghuan, "Alright, stop crying. Actually, I don’t think this situation is as bad as you imagine. On the contrary, it should be a good thing."

"A good thing?" Yue Qinghuan lifted her head, her little nose red from crying, and asked with a sob, "What... what good thing?"

The Second Sister smiled gently, "What bothers you isn’t why everyone knew Xue An was leaving except you?"

Yue Qinghuan nodded, eyes downcast, "Yes, why didn’t he even say goodbye to me? Am I so insignificant to him?"

"You’re wrong; this actually proves you’re important."

"Why?" Yue Qinghuan became even more bewildered.

"It’s quite simple. Think about how you usually interact with him."

Yue Qinghuan tilted her head, thought for a long while, and finally said, "Harmoniously!"

"Have you ever had any conflicts?"

"No!"

"Indeed, since there’s not a hint of conflict between the two of you, why did he leave without saying a word? It can only mean he has something on his mind!"

Yue Qinghuan’s pale purple eyes, like gemstones, widened gradually, murmuring, "Something on his mind?"

"Exactly, if it were just a normal friendship, he wouldn’t leave without a goodbye. Hence, the only explanation is that he’s afraid to see you!"

"He’s afraid he won’t be able to control his emotions, after all, he has a family, so he can only choose not to see you!"

"Now... do you understand?"

After saying this, the Second Sister looked intently at Yue Qinghuan.

And after hearing this logically sound reasoning, Yue Qinghuan’s eyes gradually brightened.

"Yes! Since he has nothing on his mind, why wouldn’t he dare see me?"

As she spoke, tears flowed once more from Yue Qinghuan’s eyes, but this time she wept with joy.

Then she looked sincerely at the Second Sister.

"Sister-in-law, thank you, I understand now!"

"As long as you understand!" the Second Sister said with a smile.

But before she could say more, Yue Qinghuan suddenly stood up, wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes, and looked deeply at the distant horizon.

"Alright, sister-in-law, it’s getting late. I’m going back to sleep!"

After saying that, she strode off.

Watching her departing figure, the Second Sister let out a long sigh of relief.

At least, for now, this one is placated.

Meanwhile, Yue Shifang came forward, speaking in a tone of utter amazement.

"Were the things you just said true?"

"What?"

"The things you said about Xue An having something on his mind, so he didn’t dare see Qinghuan!"

To his surprise, the Second Sister shrugged, "How would I know if it’s true? It was just an idea that came to me suddenly, so I said it casually!"

Yue Shifang’s mouth hung wide open. After a moment of hesitation, he said in astonishment, "So you were lying to her?"

"Not really lying, just not letting her be so utterly hopeless! After all, women are easily swayed by this kind of illusory happiness."

"Don’t you think there’s something really fishy about this whole thing?"

After that, the Second Sister also turned and left, leaving Yue Shifang standing there dumbfounded. After pondering for a long time, he muttered under his breath.

"Damn, could it be that Xue An really has feelings for my sister?"

Meanwhile, in the Magic Treasures Pavilion that had already flown across several Starry Domains.

An Yan suddenly thought of something and couldn’t help but ask, "Honey, who knows about your departure?"

"Yue Shifang, Shen Muyu, and a few others! Why?"

An Yan sighed softly, "It’s nothing, just that you haven’t told Qing Huan, have you?"

Xue An suddenly realized, slapping his own forehead, "Crap, there was just too much going on at the time, and I forgot! Never mind, I’ll tell her when I come back next time!"

An Yan shook her head with a gentle laugh, saying no more.

And so, this wave of events passed, with many people even unaware of Xue An’s departure.

But just as Yue Qinghuan returned to the show building, and Yue Shifang also went back to his place, up in the dark sky.

Yang Qin, a descendant of the Yang Zhu school with an amber-colored eye, chuckled quietly.

"I must say, your brother’s sister really is a romantic!"

The rippling void beside him then emitted a cold voice.

"Don’t get any ideas about her, or even without Yue Shifang stepping in, I won’t let you off!"

Yang Qin laughed heartily, "Rest assured, I, Yang Qin, have no interest in such love-struck women."
