Ye Qiu raised an eyebrow.
"Ning Rongrong?"
Hearing the voice, Ning Rongrong—who had been lowering her head—lifted her neck and raised her eyes, looking at the strong, muscular body in front of her.
Her pretty face instantly flushed red.
Her mouth opened wide at once, about to let out a scream.
"Ah~ you! Mm—mm!"
Fortunately, Ye Qiu reacted quickly.
He directly lifted a hand to hold the back of Ning Rongrong's head, and with the other hand covered her mouth. Her cherry lips slid against his palm, carrying a bit of wet warmth.
"It's late at night, what are you shouting for?"
Ye Qiu kept a straight face, his tone carrying a bit of impatience.
"Mm mm."
Ning Rongrong let out two muffled whimpers, her blue eyes blinking rapidly.
Ye Qiu frowned and released her.
Ning Rongrong quickly wiped her red lips twice, glaring fiercely at Ye Qiu, scolding in a delicate voice:
"You per—!"
Before the words could come out, they stopped immediately.
Thinking of Ye Qiu's current state, Ning Rongrong restrained her young-lady temper, softened her tone.
Pouting slightly, she complained:
"Why aren't you wearing clo—"
"Do you need something?"
Before she could finish, Ye Qiu coldly interrupted her.
Actually, he originally planned to wear clothes, but thinking that he would be sleeping again soon, he couldn't be bothered.
"You!"
Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth in silent anger.
She—堂堂 the eldest young miss of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect—personally brought him food, and this was his attitude?
Seeing Ye Qiu's dim eyes, Ning Rongrong's heart softened.
She lifted the food box with both hands in front of Ye Qiu.
Softly said: "I saw you didn't eat anything this afternoon, so I had the cook make some."
Ye Qiu froze for a moment.
"The cook downstairs is still working this late?"
"This young lady has plenty of money."
Ning Rongrong lifted her chin, chest puffed out, face full of arrogance, her eyes carrying a hint of pride.
So it was money that made the ghosts work.
Ye Qiu looked at Ning Rongrong who raised her eyes to meet his. The concern in her eyes was impossible to hide.
Though he felt a little touched in his heart…
Still, what needed to be done must be done. At a time like this, he absolutely couldn't reveal any cracks.
"W-Why are you staring at me like that?"
Being stared at by Ye Qiu the whole time, Ning Rongrong felt uneasy. And the key point was—he wasn't wearing clothes—making her avoid his gaze, her face growing even redder.
She stammered softly, explaining:
"I'm telling you… don't think too much, I just think you're pitiful."
"Thank you."
Ye Qiu casually tossed out two words, reaching out to snatch the food box.
"You're welcome, do you want me to stay and talk—"
Clack!
Before Ning Rongrong finished speaking—
Ye Qiu's figure had already disappeared, and the door was firmly shut.
The step Ning Rongrong had lifted froze in place.
She originally wanted to go in and sit for a while, to comfort Ye Qiu a bit more.
Crunch.
Ning Rongrong clenched her teeth tightly, stomped her foot, and angrily kicked the door.
Bang—!
She loudly reminded:
"You big liar, y-you better finish everything, my money doesn't fall from the sky!"
At the end, her voice softened again.
"Did you hear me~?"
Silence filled the air—no response at all.
Ning Rongrong wanted to slap the door twice, but her raised hand paused mid-air, waved twice, and she turned around angrily and left.
She had gathered a lot of courage just to plan on going inside to sit!
"Hmph! Bastard, big liar, not knowing what's good for you!"
"If it weren't because we're friends, because you're pitiful… this young lady wouldn't bother with you!"
Ning Rongrong pouted her lips.
Returning to her room shared with Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed cultivating, looked at her coming in and asked doubtfully:
"Rongrong, where did you go?"
"I—I didn't go anywhere, just out for a walk."
Ning Rongrong quickly explained a few words, quietly climbed onto her bed, grabbing the blanket as if she were choking Ye Qiu's neck.
"How is Ye Qiu?"
Zhu Zhuqing asked softly.
"He's… probably fine."
As soon as she said that—
Ning Rongrong felt regretful.
Wasn't that just telling Zhu Zhuqing that she went to see Ye Qiu? For some unknown reason, she felt guilty, closed her eyes, face red, burying herself into the blankets.
"That's good."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly.
She didn't think much of it. After all, Ye Qiu had saved her from the Titan Giant Ape.
...
Inside Ye Qiu's room.
He was taking out the dishes from the food box, placing them on the table.
A Yin's faint figure appeared, complaining: "I told you, you don't appreciate good intentions."
"Come on, I acted very tired."
"If she came in and I couldn't help teasing her and made myself laugh—what then?"
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes at her. Looking at the steaming food, he began eating heartily.
"Hmph, really a big liar."
A Yin snorted coldly.
She sat by the table, resting her chin on her hands, quietly watching the handsome youth before her.
If nothing unexpected happened, this would be her new home in the future.
————————
The next morning.
Ning Rongrong walked out of her room, saw the food box at Ye Qiu's door, hurried forward to check.
Seeing that all the food inside was gone, she finally felt relieved.
Being able to eat—
Meant that the big liar could still put things down.
Ning Rongrong smiled lightly, raised her hand wanting to knock on the door, but lowered it again.
"That big liar might still be asleep. I should finish my breakfast first."
She muttered to herself.
She quickly stored the food box back into her soul guide, hands behind her back as she ran downstairs. Her mood inexplicably much better.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ning Rongrong's back.
Looking at the box she herself prepared, she shook her head. It seemed she didn't need to send Ye Qiu food after all.
——————
During the two days they stayed in the small town—
All of Ye Qiu's meals were taken care of by Ning Rongrong. Fine wine and delicious food, rarely repeating dishes.
And Ye Qiu didn't stay idle.
Staying in the room was too boring, so he cultivated with A Yin.
From time to time, he used soul power imaging to look outside.
Aside from eating, Tang San also stayed in his room, seemingly using the poison from the venomous python to mix and create something.
...
Three days later, it was the day Zhao Wuji decided they would return.
Early in the morning, Zhao Wuji used his loud voice to wake up all the Shrek members.
Ye Qiu went downstairs for the first time since returning.
Zhao Wuji stepped forward, patted his shoulder: "Ye Qiu, look forward. You still have a great future."
As the most monstrous talent in Shrek, Zhao Wuji sincerely hoped he wouldn't fall into despair.
"Mm, I know, Teacher Zhao."
Ye Qiu nodded slightly. He glanced at Dai Mubai and the others, exchanged a nod with Tang San.
He sat down next to Oscar.
Secretly observing Zhu Zhuqing—seeing that she remained as cold to Dai Mubai as always—he finally relaxed.
The last one to come downstairs was Ning Rongrong.
After retrieving the food box at Ye Qiu's door, her white dress fluttered like a pure butterfly as she descended the stairs.
When she saw Ye Qiu, she paused for a moment.
Then her face lit up with joy.
This big liar finally came out of his room.
Wish everyone a pleasant life!
