Chapter 78: Characteristics

Ye Qiu entered the room sideways and didn't see Xiao Lan's figure.

Sitting down at the bedside, Ning Rongrong also sat beside him, with only small partition, a space for one person in between.

As Ning Rongrong sat down, her skirt seemed even shorter.

Ye Qiu, who had been looking down, quickly turned his head away, not knowing where to look.

Looking around, something seemed to be missing.

"Cough cough. Um, where's Xiao Lan?"

"Big brother~ Xiao Lan is here!" A crisp voice came from a corner of the room.

"She's changing behind the screen!"

Ning Rongrong pointed to the screen, watching Ye Qiu's slightly reddened face with a hint of unnatural smile on his lips.

"Hmph! Hypocrite! pretending to be innocent."

Brushing the strands of her hair beside her cheeks behind her ears, pulling the quilt over, covering her legs.

"Changing clothes? What does she have to change into!"

Ye Qiu curiously looked in the direction of the screen. He knew very well that Xiao Lan's clothes were all illusions created by herself.

"Big brother! Xiao Lan is done changing! Ding ding ding ding."

A petite figure jumped out from behind the screen, adding a sound effect to her entrance.

Ye Qiu looked over, feeling a bit stunned.

At this moment, Xiao Lan had changed out of her original blue and gold-patterned long dress. She was now wearing a set of white slim-fit robes. Her hair was tied up in a high ponytail, with a blue fringe falling down on the right side of her forehead. Her slender waist was wrapped in a sash, giving her a taller appearance.

She wore a pair of black boots with gold patterns, and the sleeves of her clothes hugged her wrists. In her hand, she held a long sword.

"Uh, why are you dressed like this?" Ye Qiu's eyes lit up.

"Hmph! Isn't this look good?" Ning Rongrong glanced at him, quite satisfied with Xiao Lan's current appearance.

Xiao Lan's temperament had undergone a significant change, from the original noble and cute look to a lively and agile one. She even had a bit of the heroic spirit of a martial artist from his previous life.

"Hehe, Rong Rong sister bought this for me! Hoo~" Xiao Lan proudly laughed, blowing on the fringe on her forehead.

Looking at Ye Qiu, her eyes shifted.

Suddenly, she crossed her hands behind her back, walked solemnly to Ye Qiu's side, and sat down between the two of them.

Ning Rongrong and Ye Qiu both looked at her curiously.

"Big brother~"

"Hmm?" Ye Qiu turned his head to look at her, waiting for her to continue.

She lifted her left hand, flicked her fringe, and a mischievous smile appeared on her face, making Ye Qiu feel a bit uneasy.

Her right hand's sword hilt was already against his chest, lightly lifting Ye Qiu's head. He immediately felt something was wrong and was about to react.

Before he could do anything, Xiao Lan had lightly kissed him on the lips and smirked.

"This Little miss~ Tastes good. Ah! Big brother, Xiao Lan is sorry!"

"Hahaha."

Xiao Lan covered her forehead with one hand, the other hand letting go of the sword, and she grabbed the arm Ye Qiu had just raised, begging for mercy as she looked at him.

Ning Rongrong laughed heartily on the side.

With a dark face, Ye Qiu looked at Ning Rongrong.

"Did you teach her this?"

"You're talking nonsense! I never taught her that!" Ning Rongrong laughed so hard that she couldn't catch her breath, staring at him.

Xiao Lan lowered her head, playing with her small hands, her face blushing. "This... I learned it from the big brothers on the street!"

"Hehe, that's how it is!" Ye Qiu sneered and was about to give her a lesson with his two-finger Zen.

Before he could touch her, she had already cried out.

"Ah! Big brother! It hurts here, Xiao Lan~" Holding her chest and teary-eyed, she looked pitiful.

"Huh? I haven't even touched you yet?" Ye Qiu looked at her strangely.

Xiao Lan then looked at Ning Rongrong, her eyes full of grievances, and immediately accused Ning Rongrong of her crimes.

"Sister Rong Rong kicked me before! Kicked me to the bedpost!"

"I... I didn't mean to do it! I thought Xiao Lan was already dead." Facing the gaze of the two, Ning Rongrong blushed awkwardly and waved her hands repeatedly.

Indeed, it couldn't be entirely blamed on her. At that time, when she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Lan lying in front of her, her face pressed against hers. Startled, she subconsciously used her limbs, accidentally kicking Xiao Lan off the bed.

"Come here, let me check."

Taking Xiao Lan in his arms, Ye Qiu pressed his hand against her, and a faint green light flashed.

However, he didn't notice the sly smile that flashed across Xiao Lan's blushing face, along with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.

Unfortunately, before she could enjoy her triumph for too long, Ning Rongrong erupted.

"Ye Qiu! How can you just randomly touch like that! You beast!"

Seeing that his hand was pressed against Xiao Lan's chest, she grabbed Xiao Lan and pulled her away.

At this point, Xiao Lan's smile had not disappeared from her face, but it gradually stiffened.

Looking at the lingering cunning in her eyes, Ye Qiu finally realized that he had been deceived.

It had been so long; how could she still feel pain? Moreover, she had two soul skills of her own.

"Okay, Xiao Lan! You dare to deceive me!"

Teasing him was one thing, but now she dared to lie to him.

Furious, he pounced in her direction.

Xiao Lan's face showed panic as she instantly broke free from Ning Rongrong's hand.

"Ah!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed.

"Ah! Big brother! Xiao Lan still has another set of clothes to change!" Avoiding the incoming attack, Xiao Lan shouted in panic, not daring to turn around, and quickly ran behind the screen.

On the bed, there were only a man and a woman left.

Blue eyes looked down at green eyes.

"..." Ning Rongrong watched Ye Qiu, who was pressing on her, and felt the heat on her face.

She couldn't help but furrow her brows; the left side of her chest was pressed uncomfortably.

"Sorry, my apologies!" Seeing clearly, Ye Qiu quickly got up, stood away from her.

It seemed like he had glimpsed something extraordinary again, so Ye Qiu quickly turned away.

Ning Rongrong's skirt had slipped to her waist, revealing pink underwear underneath.

"Ah!"

Sensing Ye Qiu's unease, Ning Rongrong also realized what had happened. She quickly pulled up her fallen suspenders, dropped her skirt, and covered herself with the quilt.

"Ye Qiu! You scoundrel! Jerk! Beast! You're shameless!"

Ye Qiu smiled bitterly, realizing he had just acquired two more adjectives.

The air fell silent.

Ye Qiu felt too embarrassed to sit back down, so he moved to the side of the table.

"Xiao Lan! How did you explain this to Ning Rongrong?" Ye Qiu communicated with Xiao Lan in his mind.

"Big brother~ Xiao Lan told her that it's one of my special soul skills!"

Hearing Xiao Lan's answer, Ye Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that she didn't reveal everything.

Out of the corner of his eye, Ye Qiu suddenly noticed Ning Rongrong staring at him intently, sending shivers down his spine.

He hurriedly urged Xiao Lan, "Come out as soon as you're done changing!"

"I won't! Big brother will bully me!"

"...Come out, I absolutely won't tease you!"

"Really?"

"Really!" Ye Qiu's answer was resolute.

As soon as he finished speaking, a blue-haired figure in a green dress emerged from behind the screen.

Surprisingly, the style of her clothes was similar to what Ning Rongrong usually wore.

"Big brother~ Xiao Lan is sorry!" As soon as she came out, Xiao Lan pounced into Ye Qiu's arms, hugging his neck and rubbing her face against his.

"Alright, alright! I forgive you!" He helplessly moved her little face away.

"Mwah! Big brother is the best!" After giving him a kiss, she immediately jumped away.

Holding up the long skirt with both hands, she twirled in front of Ye Qiu.

"Big brother! Rong Rong sister~ Is Xiao Lan pretty?"

"Very pretty!" Ning Rongrong was quite satisfied with the dress she had chosen.

Ye Qiu, however, felt a bit absent-minded.

Looking at the hint of blue before him, he suddenly heard that familiar question again.

"Do you think I'm pretty?"

She was back, they were all back!

The memories of that night rushed into his mind like a tide.

Three questions, two glasses of strong liquor, one kiss.

His eyes involuntarily turned towards Ning Rongrong, realizing that he might indeed be a bit of a scoundrel.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Sitting on the bed, Ning Rongrong noticed Ye Qiu staring at her and asked with a serious face.

"Ah! Nothing!" Ye Qiu turned his face away, as if talking to himself. "Actually... you are also very pretty!"

Hearing this, a sunset-like blush instantly spread across Ning Rongrong's face, blending with the light shining through the window, creating a breathtaking scene.

"This scoundrel!" She knew Ye Qiu was saying it for her to hear.

"Big brother~ Are you talking about Xiao Lan?" Xiao Lan asked.

"Yes! Xiao Lan is also very pretty!" Ye Qiu nodded with a light smile.

"Hmph! Shameless man~" Seeing him nod and easily please the two girls with just a few words, Ning Rongrong cursed again.

At least this time, there was only one word left.

"Grumble~"

There was a sudden sound from the bed, and Ning Rongrong, with her head down, looked a bit embarrassed.

"Hehe~ Rong Rong sister, are you hungry?" Xiao Lan pounced onto the bed, leaning on Ning Rongrong's shoulder, and her hands reached her belly.

"Mmm!" Ning Rongrong nodded.

"I'll have someone prepare some food and bring you a set of clothes!" Ye Qiu got up.

"Thank you~"

When Ye Qiu reached the door, he turned back to look at Ning Rongrong in surprise. She seemed to have become more polite.

After Ye Qiu left, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Lan leaned against each other, watching the sunset outside and reminiscing about that night.

"That guy should have remembered that kiss, right? Hmph! The person this young lady sets her eyes on, won't be easily let go!" A slight smile hung on her lips.

At least, during this time, the advantage was hers!

"Xiao Lan, can you tell me about your sister Zhu Qing?"

"Sure, sure!"

"What makes her special?"

"Special?" Xiao Lan thought for a moment, then looked at Ning Rongrong's chest and blurted out, " Yes! She is bigger than Sister Rongrong!"

Then she glanced at her own front and patted it with her hand. "Also It's also bigger than Xiao Lan!"

"Every time she hugs big brother, big brother blushes!" Xiao Lan honestly revealed, as it was indeed the most obvious and prominent characteristic.

"Huh? Rong Rong sister, what's wrong with you?"

"...Hehe!" Ning Rongrong forced a couple of laughs, gritting her teeth as she looked at Xiao Lan, wishing she could kick her down again!

Why did she have to be the last one!

Even if that Zhu Qing sister had exceptional talent and was beyond her reach, did she have to lose to this little girl!?

Straightening her back, she looked at the unchanged altitude in front of her and then glanced at the curves of Xiao Lan.

Her face immediately turned red.

There was no reason! How could this be happening?

"Rong Rong sister, why are you looking at me like that?" Xiao Lan covered her chest, looking wary.

Ning Rongrong was at a loss for words, her face flushed. It was just too embarrassing!
