After Reading His Mind, I Found Out My Master's Persona Had Crumbled

This novel's pairing: A sesame-paste-filled disciple gong who is not the least bit composed and only ever wants to cuddle up to his shou x A sugar-paste-filled master shou who struggles to maintain his aloof, powerful persona - After Zhao Yu was badly injured, he obtained a storybook. It read: [His master, Yun Lai, will claim to be treating him, then pull out his tendons and strip his bones before abandoning him in the abyss.] He didn't believe it. But when his master's fingers truly began to wander over his neck, just as the storybook described, as if about to take his Dao bones the very next moment... His heart sank. Could it be? As he stared in disbelief, he suddenly heard his master's cool voice in his mind: [Hmm, how strange.] [...I want to get a little closer.] Zhao Yu: ? He opened his eyes and saw his master with a stern expression, though both his cheeks were bright red. Avoiding his gaze, he said, "...You're awake?" [H-How shameless! How could I...?] Two completely different voices sounded at once. One was icy, the other flustered and inexplicably aggrieved. Zhao Yu fell into deep thought. Something was wrong. Very wrong. - P.S.: 1. First love for both of them. 2. The world is fictional, with some author-invented details. After all, your author has never cultivated immortality ●v● Theme: Communicating more might open up a whole new world.
