Ji Ruyue's face flushed red.
She stomped her foot gently and chided, "No more nonsense!"
"There's really nothing between me and Junior Brother Jiang."
"That so-called heroic rescue you mentioned was just him saving me from the mouth of a corpse on Boundary Mountain."
"He saved countless people on Boundary Mountain."
"If we go by your logic, even the eighty-year-old female elders he saved were part of some 'heroic rescue romance'?"
The two mischievous junior sisters exchanged a glance.
Covering their mouths, they broke into laughter.
Ji Ruyue clasped her hands together in a pleading gesture:
"Please, have mercy on me, grandaunts!"
"Stop spreading gossip."
"Tying me up with our Sect Master's man—"
"Do you really think I want to live that long?"
As she spoke, she sighed wearily, her mood dampened. "Besides, I wouldn't dare have any thoughts about Junior Brother Jiang."
"You saw that Xu Youran that day, didn't you?"
