Chapter 1221: Misunderstanding? What Misunderstanding?

Even though Qian Jiyun knew An Jiuyue had actually just come out of her space, he still covered her and made it seem like Xiang Qiyan was too careless.
Xiang Qiyan was shocked. Did he really not notice? Why did he think otherwise?
He clearly… Alright, he admitted that he really did not notice if there was a third person present.
“Is… Is that so? Then maybe I wasn’t paying attention.”
Despite saying that, he could not help but wonder if his cultivation level had deteriorated or if he was too happy to see Qian Jiyun that he had failed to sense a third person next to him.
“Jiuyue, this is Xiang Qiyan. He’s older than me. You can call him Brother Xiang,” Qian Jiyun walked up to Jiuyue and introduced him. “Qiyan, this is my wife, An Jiuyue.”
“Brother Xiang.” An Jiuyue nodded at Xiang Qiyan in greeting.
“Sister-in-Law Jiuyue, nice to meet you. I was too focused on chatting with Jiyun when I came in and didn’t notice you. I’ve made a fool of myself.”
Xiang Qiyan had been doubting himself just now, but he was a little embarrassed now.
An Jiuyue’s Original Soul energy level was not significantly high, so she could not have appeared out of thin air. It seemed like he genuinely did not notice her after entering the tent.
He was also a little embarrassed that he did not notice a grown adult sitting there, and he even shared some gossip with Qian Jiyun.
Would An Jiuyue find him loose-tongued?
“Brother Xiang, you’re pulling my leg.” An Jiuyue smiled awkwardly.
Only a few people could enter Qian Jiyun’s tent. She did not notice them and came out of her space.
Who would have expected Xiang Qiyan to come today?
If she had known earlier, she would have refined two more cauldrons of medicinal pills in her space. Xiang Qiyan would have left by the time she was done, right?
“Jiyun, what did you say you were going to do with Brother Xiang?” she asked Qian Jiyun.
She seemed to have heard them say that they wanted to go out to drink. But why did they have to go out to drink? Couldn’t they do it in the camp?
Was there some secret they could not discuss in the camp? Some secret that required them to go out and find a place where no one was present to have a chat between brothers?
“Well…” Xiang Qiyan felt awkward instantly. He felt that he had caused trouble for Qian Jiyun.
Zhan Beiye had mentioned that Qian Jiyun’s wife had tight control over him. He could forget about drinking.
“Sister-in-Law, you must have misheard. There’s no such thing as drinking. I just… have something to discuss with Jiyun. We’re not drinking. Really, Sister-in-Law, don’t misunderstand Jiyun.”
An Jiuyue was speechless.
He looked guilty and sounded like he was hiding something. It made it hard for her to believe him.
Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding?
“What’s going on?” She turned to look at Qian Jiyun.
There was a misunderstanding, but what was it? Why did she feel that something was wrong? Why did it appear that she, his wife, could not even bear to part with her husband to allow him to have a sip of wine?
“It’s nothing. Qiyan misunderstood me,” Qian Jiyun explained with a smile.
Most importantly, Zhan Beiye’s mouth was too loose. He would say anything to Xiang Qiyan.. But he did not give him the facts; it was all his speculation!
