“What! He’s the new steward? He’s a bit older, but he looks quite handsome, much better-looking than the previous Steward Ye.”
A female disciple looked at Chu Fan and couldn’t help saying to the woman beside her, “If this steward were hinting at me, I might be able to accept it. But that previous Steward Ye was too…”
That female disciple surnamed Lin also had her eyes light up: “The new steward is quite handsome, and there seems to be a hint of heroic spirit between his brows.”
At this moment, Chu Fan felt both amused and helpless. Why did it feel like he was being stared at by a bunch of lechers?
However, these women probably weren’t really interested in him. They were probably thinking about how to please him so that their names would not appear on this list.
“Sister Siya, the clothes you’re wearing are just too beautiful! You look so stunning, though they’re a little too revealing.”
At that moment, a young girl ran over and said with a smile to Liu Siya, as if the two of them had a pretty good relationship.
Liu Siya smiled and said, “These were given to us by Steward Chu.”
Liu Siya didn’t dare say that they were treasures, afraid that someone would get ideas about them, so she only said that Chu Fan had given them to her.
“No way, Steward Chu actually gave you clothes? Could it be that you and he…”
The girl froze, thinking that Liu Siya wasn’t supposed to be so reserved. Could it be that because Steward Chu was somewhat handsome, she had finally come around and latched onto him?
And it seemed that it wasn’t only Liu Siya who had latched onto Steward Chu. Even Liu Siya’s little sister, Liu Qingyue, had also gotten close to Steward Chu.
As for why Steward Chu felt somewhat unfamiliar, that was because registered disciples usually had no contact with people of higher rank. It was normal that she had never seen him before.
“I really didn’t expect that Liu Siya would secretly go to Steward Chu in order not to be sent to the Blazing Flame Sect. I’m afraid they’ve already slept together, right? Otherwise, would Steward Chu have given her clothes like that?”
A female disciple whispered to the disciple beside her.
If Chu Fan’s hearing weren’t far better than everyone else’s, he probably wouldn’t have heard it.
The other person then said, “But Liu Qingyue is also wearing those clothes. Steward Chu is really quite the player. I don’t know where he bought such indecent clothes, but he actually let them wear them out in public. Just looking at them makes me feel embarrassed.”
“Keep your voice down. If Steward Chu hears about it, he’ll get revenge and put you on that list. Then you’ll be waiting to die.”
The previous female disciple hurriedly warned her.
“Steward Chu, are these clothes you gave them? Your taste is really good. These clothes are gorgeous.”
That female disciple who had previously been called Junior Sister Lin was dressed fairly sexy today, with a somewhat low neckline, though it was unclear whether that was deliberate.
She walked over, gave Chu Fan a flirtatious glance, and then touched his chest with her hand. “Oh my, what a magnificent chest. Steward Chu, my name is Lin Xiaoxiao. I also want to wear clothes like this for you to see. Could you give me a set?”
Chu Fan was speechless. This woman was indeed attractive, but once he thought of that old man Ye Qiu having been with her, he not only lost interest, but also felt a little disgusted.
After all, he had better choices like Liu Siya and Liu Qingyue, as well as a top-tier beauty like Ye Yanji waiting for him. His standards had risen, and he had become picky too.
Chu Fan smiled and said, “You do look pretty good, but compared with Qingyue and Siya, you fall short by quite a bit. So these things of mine aren’t something I give to just any woman!”
“Oh, come on, I don’t mind if you don’t give me a set. I just want to wear it for you to see.”
To avoid being selected for that list, even though Chu Fan’s words made Lin Xiaoxiao unhappy, she still kept hinting at him without showing it.
“Step back first!”
Chu Fan told her to step back directly, and only then did he say to everyone, “Everyone, quiet down. I have something to announce.”
“I came here today to tell everyone two things. First, I am the new steward, replacing the previous Steward Ye in his work.”
“Second, we will not be sending anyone to the Blazing Flame Sect this month. This is the Sect Master’s decision.”
“I heard that there are a total of five thousand registered disciples, and each time fifty people are chosen from among a thousand. So this time, many registered disciples aren’t here. After you go back, remember to tell them.”
Chu Fan smiled faintly as he spoke to these female disciples.
“Really? We don’t have to send anyone over this month?”
The registered disciples were all extremely excited.
Chu Fan smiled and said, “Not just this month. We won’t be sending anyone ever again.”
“That’s great! Really? Steward Chu, is this really true?”
A female disciple was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. If that were true, they could cultivate in peace from now on, and they would never again have to worry about being sent to the Blazing Flame Sect and tortured to death.
After hearing this, Lin Xiaoxiao also trembled slightly and said excitedly, “Is, is this really true? I haven’t heard any Elder say so. The notice hasn’t even come down yet. Could it be that Steward Chu knows some inside information?”
Liu Qingyue smiled calmly and said to everyone, “Don’t worry. What Steward Chu says is definitely true. He won’t lie to everyone. This time, not only do those of you who passed the initial screening not need to worry, but the remaining four thousand registered disciples don’t need to worry either. After you go back, remember to tell the senior and junior sisters you live with.”
“That’s wonderful! Steward Chu, no, I have to give you a hug. I’m just too excited!”
Lin Xiaoxiao was overwhelmed with excitement and immediately rushed over to give Chu Fan a hug.
“Steward Chu, this is the best news I’ve heard recently. I want to give you a hug too!”
The girl who had been on good terms with Liu Siya earlier, looking rather well-behaved, also ran over and gave Chu Fan a big hug.
Chu Fan smelled the faint fragrance on her body and felt incredibly comfortable. This feeling was really wonderful.
“Haha, anyone who wants a hug from me, line up!”
Chu Fan laughed and said.
“Line up, line up! I want to hug Steward Chu too!”
A female disciple also shouted.
Sure enough, before long, a long line really did form.
At this moment, Chu Fan was truly enjoying himself. Hugging each one in turn felt extremely comfortable.
It had to be said that the registered disciples of the Joyous Sect were really all of pretty high quality. Their looks were quite good, and there were very few who were ordinary-looking.
Among them, a few with large chests made Chu Fan especially excited.
“Steward Chu, I went looking for you because I wanted to bring you here. I never expected you to already be here, building bonds with the disciples!”
Shi Henshuang walked in at this moment. Seeing Chu Fan lining up to hug a group of female disciples, her expression became a little strange. This old man seemed even more lecherous than she had imagined.
