After seeing his family off, Ji Xinghuo entered the bedroom and became intimate with Zhao Manying for a while before he noticed she seemed somewhat distracted.
"What are you thinking about?" he asked.
Zhao Manying gently held his hand under the pajamas, looked up, and said, "I want to have another duel with you."
"Haha, you want to challenge me just after fusing with the True Eye?" Ji Xinghuo laughed.
"That's right." Zhao Manying sat up straight, her eyes sparkling with confidence and determination as she looked at Ji Xinghuo, "I know I'm likely not your match, but I want to know how far behind you I am, and also test the effect of the True Eye."
Ji Xinghuo teased her chin, "Second place in the sky ladder challenging the first, sounds reasonable. I accept."
He felt not the slightest displeasure.
On the contrary, he thought that this was what he admired most about Zhao Manying.
