Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind

Chapter 301 - 178: Teaching Senior Sister (Part 2)

"Then what thickness does Senior Sister want?"

Wangshu pondered for a while, uncertain about the ideal thickness.

Suddenly, she recalled the tubular object pressed against her lower abdomen a few days ago, and thought that felt just right. She then extended three slender, jade-like fingers, bringing them together and said:

"I want it this thick."

"This thick? Where can you find such a thick pen tube?"

You Su shook his head, envisioning the scene. Senior Sister’s fingers were long and distinct in their joints. If she were to hold such a thick pen tube, it would fit perfectly, every inch of her soft finger flesh adhering snugly to the tube, surely producing more beautiful writing.

"If Senior Sister feels the Holding Tube Skill is insufficient, you can try the Pinching Tube Skill."

The Pinching Tube Skill involves pinching the end of the tube with five fingers, best suited for someone like Wangshu with slender fingers.

"Please teach me, Junior Brother." Wangshu naturally raised her hand, placing it next to You Su’s.

You Su hesitated briefly but then took hold of Senior Sister’s hand to teach her. Wangshu, this time, was well-behaved and cooperated, feeling for the first time that writing could be such a joyful activity.

However, the Pinching Tube Skill, unlike the instinctive Holding Tube Skill, had some difficulty. Their hands intertwined for a while before Wangshu grasped it a little.

To show You Su her learning results, she simply pinched You Su’s erect middle finger, treating it as a pen tube, allowing him to truly sense her grip and pressure while holding a pen.

Wangshu began teasing the tip of You Su’s finger, like stroking a soft little animal.

"I can’t feel it, use a bit more force." You Su reminded her.

The girl tightened her grip, and You Su’s finger responded by hardening. This mutual feedback was how one should feel with a pen.

"Very good, start moving the pen."

Wangshu, upon receiving the command, eagerly began writing in the air, as if impatient to earn her Junior Brother’s praise...

He swore to the heavens that what he was teaching Senior Sister was serious calligraphy! But why did it look so much like what Master had taught?!

That memory, which shouldn’t have resurfaced, hit him again, the stimulating sensation so vivid it was as if he were there.

He couldn’t help but blush, forgetting to pull away his fingers, with only two thoughts battling in his mind:

She is Master; she is not Master...

"What are you two... doing?!"

A cold yet familiar feminine voice suddenly rang out, startling You Su. Like a guilty person hiding their loot, he tucked his fingers behind his back and declared:

"We’re not doing anything!"

The Third Elder, with many outfits, always appeared in different luxurious dresses. Though she dressed primly, her exaggerated fullness added a captivating allure to her tightly buttoned attire.

She squinted her charming eyes, scrutinizing the blush still lingering on You Su’s cheeks, looking skeptical.

The Third Elder knew Wangshu wouldn’t lie, so she shifted her questioning:

"Little Wangshu, what were you two doing just now?"

You Su sighed inwardly, not realizing the Third Elder’s normalcy, but Senior Sister should have. Why didn’t she give a hint...

Then, thinking again, they weren’t doing anything unspeakable, so why feel guilty?

"Junior Brother was teaching me to write." Wangshu answered honestly.

"Writing?"

The Third Elder glanced at Wangshu’s five fingers forming a small circle, considering how You Su’s middle finger was pinched there earlier, feeling something unspeakably odd:

"Why were you holding his hand to write?"

"Junior Brother taught me a new way to hold a pen, and I wanted him to test my posture and strength."

"A blind man teaching someone to hold a pen?"

The Third Elder had no ill intentions, just overwhelmed by amazement. How could a blind You Su not only possess remarkable writing skills but also teach calligraphy?

"Third Elder! Junior Brother is amazing! Don’t always speak of him like that!" Wangshu stood up for her Junior Brother indignantly.

The Third Elder raised an eyebrow and glanced at the silent You Su, "Your calligraphy should be taught by the Tenth Elder personally. Can You Su teach better than the Tenth Elder?"

Wangshu nodded emphatically, then displayed two sets of writing in front of her. Without exception, both contained the poems You Su had composed with her that day.

The content was the same, but the difference in handwriting was immediately evident.

"The right one was written using the new posture taught by Junior Brother!" Wangshu remarked proudly, standing tall, feeling pride not only for herself but also for Junior Brother.

The Third Elder, surprised to compare, truly noticed the remarkable improvement in penmanship.

She belonged to the old school, holding the pen with three fingers as well, now attempting her own version with curiosity. The shape and form resembling a fist, with a chunky gap between the fingers. She tried sliding it up and down a couple of times, puzzled: "Can you write well like this?"

She lacked the orthodox insistence like the Tenth Elder, so she wouldn’t make things difficult for the two due to such unorthodox pen-holding.

The Third Elder imitated them, holding the pen with anticipation, but unfortunately, her writing came out inconsistently dense and unbearable to look at.

Angrily, she glared, "You Su, you’re misleading others again!"

"It’s the Third Elder himself that’s clumsy!"

Furious, Wangshu snatched the brush back, wrote a few characters again herself, and they visibly exuded some Spiritual Qi, graceful like her own appearance.

The Third Elder was amazed as she knew Little Wangshu wasn’t good at writing. If the Tenth Elder saw this, perhaps he wouldn’t easily abandon Wangshu’s cultural lessons.

This You Su, how many surprises does he have in store?

"It has nothing to do with clumsiness, it’s just that the Third Elder lacks the sword-holding foundation, so she’s unfamiliar with the Holding Tube Skill. With more practice, the strength will improve." You Su hurriedly explained. Unlike Senior Sister, he couldn’t straightforwardly call the Third Elder ’clumsy.’

"Who asked you?"

The Third Elder pouted her red lips. Although she held You Su in high regard, she couldn’t show it verbally.

The charming woman checked her hand-formed circle, then examined You Su’s slender, powerful middle finger, holding a skeptical attitude towards You Su’s ’more practice’ advice.

"Little Wangshu, even for learning calligraphy, you must understand the differences between men and women, okay? Don’t let anyone take advantage of you."

"But I initiated holding Junior Brother’s finger, wasn’t I taking advantage of him?"

With her head lowered, Wangshu concealed her extreme distaste for the words ’differences between men and women.’ She remembered last time before Junior Brother left, his body carried the Third Elder’s fragrance.

"His rough hands from holding swords can be compared to your precious hands?"

The Third Elder spoke with distaste, intending to grab the hand Wangshu used to touch You Su and wipe away any traces.

Unexpectedly, Wangshu dodged agilely, "Third Elder, Wangshu also has rough hands from holding swords, and they can’t compare to your precious hands either."

The Third Elder’s proud chest heaved noticeably, with a few buttons on her side struggling to hold firm.

The charming woman couldn’t allow them to continue such close encounters privately in her absence, so she spoke:

"You Su, though you are indeed quite talented, do you know that without a scholarly title, you can’t teach indiscriminately?"

This rule holds in the Immortal Family, but not so much in the mortal world.

"Does the Third Elder mean that if I want to continue teaching Senior Sister, I have to obtain a degree first?"

"Precisely! Especially since Little Wangshu holds a prestigious status. If the Tenth Elder discovers your actions, you will surely face severe punishment. His most detested thing is misleading others."

You Su pondered for a moment and asked, "Does this degree have to do with cultivation?"

"Of course not, it’s solely based on scholarship." The Third Elder, seeing You Su taking the bait, continued, "If you’re truly determined to teach your Senior Sister, then prove yourself by obtaining one, since both Wangshu and I have witnessed your talent."

For the first time, You Su heard affirming words from the Third Elder and understood that obtaining this degree was no easy task, as she was setting a trap for him.

"Junior Brother, it’s okay if you don’t obtain the degree, we can secretly learn on the peak, ignoring others."

You Su smiled. For Senior Sister, he was willing to try.

"It’s alright, Senior Sister, I’ll prepare in the coming days and go to Book Immortal Peak for the exam."

"Good! Such ambition!"

The Third Elder’s mood improved instantly, her fair face relaxing, even finding You Su more pleasing:

"Then come with me to Bihua Peak."

"Why go to Bihua Peak?"

Before You Su asked, Wangshu eagerly inquired, unwilling for her Junior Brother to leave her side for even a moment after being apart for so long.

"Finding the Lotus Heart for your Master is a task entrusted to him by me. If he doesn’t come to claim his reward, how will others view me? Your Junior Brother’s presence is grand indeed, even requiring my personal invitation. Come along, Mr. You?"

You Su felt deeply ashamed upon hearing this; it wasn’t that he didn’t want it, but being with Senior Sister day by day made him somewhat forgetful.

Upon reconsidering, the Third Elder was indeed quite kind to him...
