Ao Tian's door was not locked. Xiao Wu lightly knocked on it and then walked in.
According to the rules of the academy, male students were not allowed to harass female students, but it didn't say anything about female students not being able to harass male students. Xiao Wu didn't care about such things.
Ao Tian was also in the bathroom, the sound of water splashing as he washed his body.
"He's taking a shower again. He must have bullied Sister Na'er until morning. He's such a big bad guy!" Xiao Wu blushed and muttered.
Having lived in the Star Dou Forest for so many years, she occasionally encountered some spirit beasts in heat, but never for this long.
The more she thought about it, the redder her face became. She cursed herself for being timid. She didn't stay last night and still didn't know how such a thing happened.
As she was lost in her thoughts, Ao Tian walked out wearing a white bathrobe.
"What are you doing here?" Ao Tian glanced at Xiao Wu and noticed her flushed face.
Xiao Wu took out Gu Yuena's blanket and threw it on the sofa nearby, saying, "Look at what you've done. Sister Na'er's blanket is all wet. You have to help her clean it."
Ao Tian suddenly had a mischievous look on his face and smiled. "Let me make it clear to you, I didn't do it. Na'er did."
"How is that possible? Why would Sister Na'er wet her own blanket?" Xiao Wu clearly didn't believe it.
"You just don't want to wash it for her, so you made up an excuse to trick me."
Ao Tian looked meaningful and said, "You still don't understand now, but you will later."
"I don't care who did it. This is Sister Na'er's blanket, and you're her man. Shouldn't you help her clean it?"
"Yes." Ao Tian nodded.
He pointed his finger at the blanket on the sofa without touching it, and then moved his finger upwards. The blanket floated along with his finger, and then the surrounding spiritual energy gathered and condensed into visible mist, washing the blanket.
Xiao Wu watched this scene in astonishment and couldn't help but ask, "Is this how you wash a blanket with spiritual energy?"
"Spiritual energy washing. Haven't seen it before?" Ao Tian smiled.
Xiao Wu shook her head.
A few minutes later, the spiritual energy dispersed, leaving a clean and soft blanket floating in the air before gently descending into Xiao Wu's hands.
She reached out and took it, asking, "Is this enough?"
"It is. Take it back to her. I'll help her clean up later before leaving."
'What do you mean by "later"?' Xiao Wu muttered to herself.
"How about we have breakfast together later?" she asked.
Ao Tian waved his hand and said, "You guys go. I still need to study Zhu Zhuqing's technique."
"Ao Tian, thank you for all your hard work." Xiao Wu suddenly felt moved. Ao Tian really took her request to heart.
"Can't you give me some encouragement?" Ao Tian smiled and turned his face to the side, pointing at his cheek a few times with his finger.
Blushing, Xiao Wu took a few steps forward, standing on tiptoes...
Ao Tian quickly turned his head, and his side face that was facing Xiao Wu suddenly turned into the front of his face.
Xiao Wu screamed and ran out of the room holding the blanket.
"I'm going to tell Sister Na'er that you bullied me again." Her voice echoed back, and the sound of her footsteps quickly faded away.
Ao Tian touched his lips and smiled, shaking his head. Xiao Wu's first kiss tasted quite good.
He looked into the room next door. Oscar was still sound asleep, Tang San was collecting his hidden weapons at the place where he was fighting with Zhao Wuji, Dai Mubai was nowhere to be found, and Ma Hongjun hadn't returned either.
Ao Tian lay on the sofa, and his mind started deducing Zhu Zhuqing's technique.
By the time Xiao Wu returned with Gu Yuena's blanket, Gu Yuena had already finished taking a shower and came out.
Gu Yuena was still as beautiful as ever, and there seemed to be an added charm to her.
"Sister Na'er, here's your blanket," Xiao Wu obediently placed the neatly folded blanket on Gu Yuena's bed.
Gu Yuena grabbed Xiao Wu's ear, her voice sharp and menacing. "You little brat, who did you say wet the bed?"
Xiao Wu cried out in pain. "Ao Tian just said it was you. Look at it now, if it's not bedwetting, then what is it?"
"You little troublemaker!" Gu Yuena was both embarrassed and angry, giving Xiao Wu's bottom a firm pat.
"What are you two doing?" Ning Rongrong's voice suddenly sounded, and she appeared at the door, looking curiously at Gu Yuena and Xiao Wu.
She had slept in and gotten up a bit later.
"Nothing, nothing," Xiao Wu quickly said.
Ning Rongrong said, "I'm a bit hungry. Let's go find something to eat."
Xiao Wu patted her stomach and said, "I'm a bit hungry too. Let's wait for Xiao Qing. We can all go together later."
Not long after, Zhu Zhuqing finished washing up, and the four girls left the room.
Xiao Wu pointed towards the rising smoke in the distance and said, "The cafeteria must be over there. Let's go."
The other three agreed with Xiao Wu's suggestion, and they all headed in the direction of the rising smoke.
There was no clear boundary between where the Shrek Academy students lived and where the villagers resided. Unbeknownst to them, the four girls had already walked out of the scope of Shrek Academy and arrived at the side where the villagers lived.
Four stunning and vibrant girls strolled in the morning sunlight. Gu Yuena's long hair flowed freely, Xiao Wu was lively and adorable, Zhu Zhuqing exuded a cool temperament, and Ning Rongrong was gentle and charming. Each of them had their own unique charm, creating a beautiful scene.
Just then, a quarrel reached their ears. They turned a corner around a wooden house, and a pair of young boys and girls appeared in their line of sight.
The boy looked about the same age as Xiao Wu, around twelve years old. He had a round face, was on the chubby side, and even had two strands of stubble on his lips. He gave off an air of creepiness.
The girl facing him seemed a bit older, around fourteen or fifteen. She was dressed very plainly, with the appearance of a countryside girl, likely someone from this village.
The girl's voice was pleading, "Ma Hongjun, I beg you, let me go. We really aren't suitable for each other. Go find another girl."
Ma Hongjun tightly held the girl's hand, refusing to let her go, and angrily demanded, "Cui Hua, why are you leaving me? Haven't I been good to you?"
The girl tried hard to pull her hand away from Ma Hongjun, but without success. She pleaded, "I really can't stand you anymore. Let's break up."
"We've only been dating for a month, and you want to break up so soon? Are you just toying with my feelings?" Ma Hongjun angrily retorted. "And besides, who else will want you after you break up with me? Your future husband will probably be disgusted to find out you're damaged goods."
The girl's face turned pale, and she looked frightened.
Seeing the girl hesitate, Ma Hongjun smiled and said, "Don't worry, if you're with me, I'll make you happy."
He let go of the girl's hand and tried to hug her.
Suddenly, the girl's expression turned resolute. She evaded Ma Hongjun's embrace and said, "If you want happiness, you also need to have the fate to enjoy it. We shouldn't see each other again in the future."
With that, she turned and walked away.
Ma Hongjun quickly grabbed her hand again, angrily saying, "If you want to break up, fine. But have one more go with me, and then, we're done!"
The girl's voice now had a hint of tears. "Are you even human? Let me go, I don't want this."
Xiao Wu, feeling a deep sense of resentment, could no longer stand by.
