Early the next morning.
Shrek's training proceeded as usual.
With Ah Yin warming his hands and accompanying him to sleep, Ye Qiu was in high spirits. He strode into the cafeteria with large steps.
Aside from Ning Rongrong and Oscar, everyone else had already arrived.
Zhu Zhuqing, her expression cold, lifted her eyes to look at Ye Qiu and lightly nodded. However, she could not help but take another glance at him, feeling that today Ye Qiu seemed to be in a rather good mood.
Ye Qiu also greeted her, sat down at the table, and listened to Dai Mubai and the others talking.
Only then did he learn that Oscar, that kid, had actually not returned for the night?
Not long after.
Ning Rongrong arrived late, looking as though she had not rested well.
Ye Qiu raised an eyebrow.
Could it be that Oscar's staying out all night had something to do with this little demon girl?
"Ha~"
Sitting beside Ye Qiu, Ning Rongrong could not help but yawn.
After wiping away the tears at the corners of her eyes, Ning Rongrong turned her head to look at Ye Qiu, her green eyes widening.
"Dead liar, what are you looking at?!"
Ye Qiu did not bother with her and directly asked, "Ning Rongrong, where did you go last night?"
"None, none of your business." Ning Rongrong's expression changed. As her gaze darted about, she quickly hardened up again, lifting her chin and puffing out her chest. "I also want to know—what were you doing going out in the middle of the night yesterday, hmph!"
She let out a coquettish snort.
Ning Rongrong curled her lips and stopped paying attention to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu did not care at all that she had seen him last night. In any case, she definitely did not know anything.
A hint of teasing appeared on his face.
He let out a contemptuous laugh.
"Heh, quite the temper you have. Just wait—during training later, you'll be begging me."
When Ning Rongrong heard this,
she immediately reacted. After struggling for a moment, she raised her head, wanting to soften her attitude toward Ye Qiu.
However, this time, it was Ye Qiu who ignored her.
Watching Ye Qiu eat heartily on his own, Ning Rongrong could not help grinding her teeth.
How could he have so little patience with girls?!
Ning Rongrong lowered her head again and ate her breakfast resentfully. Under the table, her jade-like feet swayed, occasionally kicking Ye Qiu a couple of times.
As expected.
Oscar was absent from breakfast today.
Yu Xiaogang, who was distributing food, immediately frowned.
When everyone arrived at the training field, they discovered that at the center stood a crooked, unsteady figure—it was Oscar, who had missed breakfast.
As soon as Ma Hongjun went up, he pinched his nose:
"Damn, Xiao Ao, where did you go fooling around? Why do you reek of alcohol?"
Oscar was limp and weak. He gave a bitter smile but did not answer.
Tang San kindly reminded him from the side, "Xiao Ao, the teacher still doesn't know about you sleeping outside."
"Thanks, Xiao San."
Oscar's voice was soft and weak, completely lacking strength. His peach-blossom eyes, which he could barely open, intentionally or unintentionally glanced toward Ning Rongrong.
After being glared at by Ning Rongrong, he restrained himself somewhat.
Ye Qiu and the others lined up in order.
Yu Xiaogang stood before them with a stern face and asked in a deep voice, "Oscar, why didn't you come to breakfast today?!"
Oscar forced himself to perk up. He glanced somewhat unnaturally at Ning Rongrong, gathered his strength, and replied, "Teacher, yesterday's training was too tiring. I overslept."
Yu Xiaogang knitted his brows slightly but remained calm.
"Let this be the last time."
"Understood, teacher."
Oscar let out a sigh of relief inwardly.
Yu Xiaogang, however, was sneering in his heart.
His eyes were not blind—he knew Oscar was lying, but he did not say anything more.
Once today's training began,
Yu Xiaogang believed that he would change—so long as he did not want to be exhausted to death or drag his companions down.
"Are you done yet? Why are you staring at me the whole time?"
Within the formation, Ning Rongrong's face flushed red as she spoke in a low voice.
Ye Qiu looked at her curiously. "You really won't tell me where you went last night?"
"My friend, aren't you being a little too controlling?"
Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes at Ye Qiu.
"Uh…"
Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment. What she said seemed quite reasonable.
But he was just a bit curious—this girl had not come to find him to cultivate together. Though, to be fair, he did not have time for her either right now.
Before Ye Qiu could say anything else, today's training officially began.
The first part was still practical combat training.
After yesterday's lesson, Yu Xiaogang gradually began increasing the difficulty for Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu, one versus four.
Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Ma Hongjun at full strength, plus Ning Rongrong.
Even so, the result still did not change—Ye Qiu single-handedly swept the entire field. If Yu Xiaogang had not been standing too far away and getting caught in the crossfire would have been inappropriate, he would not have been able to stand there either.
"Ah! You bastard, hurry up and put this young lady down!"
Above Tang San and the others, who were sprawled all over the place, on the branches of a tree, Ning Rongrong's scolding rang out continuously.
Looking at Ning Rongrong hanging from the tree by Ye Qiu,
the corner of Zhu Zhuqing's mouth could not help but lift.
"Rongrong, are you alright?"
Oscar stood beneath the tree, wanting to help Ning Rongrong. However, his whole body was weak and powerless, feeling as though his body had been hollowed out, and he could only be anxious.
"Shut up!"
Ning Rongrong was furious.
In her heart, she felt extremely disgusted with Oscar. Couldn't he tell that she was in trouble? What a big idiot!
Ning Rongrong continued to scold angrily, "Hurry up and have that bastard put me down. Hurry!"
Rip—
Ning Rongrong's limbs flailed continuously. Seeming to hear the sound of her clothes tearing, she immediately stopped struggling, not daring to move anymore.
Oscar smiled awkwardly and looked toward Ye Qiu for help.
Yu Xiaogang could not stand it any longer.
"Alright. Oscar, go wake Xiao San and the others. Ye Qiu, put Ning Rongrong down—we still have training later."
"No problem."
Ye Qiu smiled faintly.
He bent his legs slightly, kicked off the ground, wrapped an arm around Ning Rongrong's slender waist, and brought her down from the tree, holding her in front of him.
Ning Rongrong's face was flushed red with anger. As her small chest brushed against Ye Qiu twice, she looked even more delicate and charming. With both hands braced against Ye Qiu's shoulders, she pushed herself slightly away, her bright green eyes filled with both anger and embarrassment as she looked down at Ye Qiu from above.
"You bastard, you even tore my clothes."
As she spoke,
Ning Rongrong punched Ye Qiu on the shoulder.
She did not say she wanted to get down, so Ye Qiu reluctantly continued holding her. Indifferently, he said, "Anyway, you, Miss Ning, have plenty of money."
"I don't care. I'm putting it on your tab—you dead liar. I'm keeping track of all this!"
Ning Rongrong frowned, looking rather willful.
"Haha."
Ye Qiu snorted with laughter.
Keep track if you want—he had no intention of paying it back anyway.
"Rongrong, it's time to assemble."
Oscar, who had already woken Tang San and the others,
looked at Ye Qiu and Ning Rongrong holding each other and forced a strained smile.
"Ah—you, hurry up and let go of me!"
Noticing Oscar's gaze,
Ning Rongrong suddenly pushed Ye Qiu hard, breaking free from his hold and landing on her feet. Then she tried to distance herself from Ye Qiu and ran off to line up.
A smile appeared on Oscar's face.
Ye Qiu, however, was left full of question marks.
What was going on? Could this little demon girl be trying to play that "green tea" routine on him?!
Wishing everyone a happy life!
