"Give it a try! You shameless stinker."
Ning Rongrong glared at Dugu Yan, ready to unleash a torrent of words, but stopped at the sight of Ye Qiu furrowing his brows.
Dugu Yan's words and Ye Qiu's current expression seemed to remind her of the times when Ye Qiu didn't particularly like her.
Holding Ye Qiu's hand, she fell silent, looking at Ye Qiu with a hint of hesitation in her eyes.
Lowering her head silently, her voice carried a hint of grievance and stubbornness.
"I... I don't want to talk to you anymore. Anyway, I'll prove it to you! Hmph!"
Ning Rongrong's hand reached through the curve of Ye Qiu's arm, calmly serving him food. Her entire demeanor was a stark contrast to her previous attitude.
"Ye Qiu, let's eat first."
"Rongrong, are you okay?"
Ye Qiu could sense the discomfort in Ning Rongrong's voice and wanted to look at her, but she deliberately kept her head lowered.
"I'm fine, just a bit hungry."
As if to prove her hunger, she took a bite of rice but couldn't swallow it. A lump of air stuck in her chest.
Ye Qiu sat beside her, wondering why Ning Rongrong suddenly became silent.
Even Dugu Yan was momentarily stunned.
Looking at the somewhat aggrieved Miss Ning in front of her, Dugu Yan, with surprise, observed her lowering her head, pouting her lips, and still obediently serving food to Ye Qiu.
A faint bitter smile appeared on her lips as she deeply glanced at Ye Qiu.
Now she understood that her worries seemed unnecessary; Ning Rongrong's attachment to Ye Qiu was deeper than she had imagined.
Merely fearing that Ye Qiu might dislike her, she had already ceased hostilities.
It seemed not too difficult to get along with her, especially when she was by Ye Qiu's side.
'This guy is really lucky!'
Looking at Ye Qiu, Dugu Yan couldn't help but sigh. The dignified Miss of the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Pagoda Sect was unexpectedly so deeply in love.
Taking a deep breath, she felt there was no need for her to stay here any longer.
"Ye Qiu, it's getting late. I'll go to the academy for training!"
"Sure, I'll accompany you. Huh?" Ye Qiu stood up, but Ning Rongrong held onto his sleeve.
"No need, it's close by. I'll walk there myself!"
Dugu Yan chuckled, looking at the ostrich-like Ning Rongrong.
It seemed that she still held some grudges!
Bo! She came close to him and kissed Ye Qiu gently.
"Remember to pick me up in the afternoon!"
"Yeah, I got it!" Ye Qiu nodded apologetically. He didn't dare to shake off the small hand on his clothes.
After Dugu Yan left, the room suddenly fell silent.
Xiao Lan also stared blankly at Ye Qiu and Ning Rongrong, not understanding how the two sisters who were tearing at each other just a moment ago had ended up like this.
"Brother, what happened to Sister Rongrong?" Xiao Lan curiously looked at the still-lowered head Ning Rongrong.
"You eat your food! We'll leave after you finish!" Ye Qiu glanced at her, signaling her not to speak.
"Oh, okay." Xiao Lan nodded in disappointment, her azure eyes turning.
'Today, Brother has been away for so long. I wonder how much good stuff Sister Rongrong can give Xiao Lan. Ah! Xiao Lan also wants a kiss.'
Ye Qiu sat back down, and before he could make a move, Ning Rongrong actively threw herself into his arms.
Looking up at Ye Qiu, her eyes were a little red.
"Rongrong, are you okay?"
"Yan Yan's words earlier were just angry words. How could you be a useless vase!?"
Faced with Ye Qiu's concerned voice, Ning Rongrong sniffled.
"I don't care about that! What I care about is you. I'm afraid you'll get angry. Ye Qiu, promise me you won't dislike me or leave me, okay?"
Ning Rongrong buried her head in Ye Qiu's chest, her voice carrying a hint of pleading.
"..." Feeling the slightly damp clothes, Ye Qiu finally understood why Ning Rongrong suddenly became silent.
A warm stream flowed through his heart.
Gradually tightening his hands, he pulled Ning Rongrong into his arms, cheek against cheek, his voice incredibly gentle.
"Hehe, how could I dislike you? Not now, not ever!"
Ye Qiu patted her back.
"Then you promise! Even if I'm a bit unreasonable in the future, you can't dislike me or leave me!"
Ning Rongrong lifted her head, stubbornly looking at him.
Perhaps, as long as Ye Qiu shook his head, he could save a lot of trouble.
But Ye Qiu still nodded.
"Okay! I promise!"
"Remember last time? Actually, occasionally throwing a little tantrum is quite cute! So, you don't have to always accommodate me. You're Ning Rongrong, the future Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Pagoda Sect."
Ye Qiu wiped away the tears on her face for her, smiling as she continued.
"And all of this was originally my fault. I should thank you for not being angry with me!"
Listening to Ye Qiu's words, Ning Rongrong's eyes gradually lit up, and a hint of long-lost cunning appeared in her eyes.
"Hmph! Since you said that, I'll spare Dugu Yan this time. Haha!"
Ning Rongrong grabbed Ye Qiu's collar and kissed his face.
"Besides, since it's your fault, you have to compensate me! Today, you have to accompany me."
"Alright! Today, just the two of us without Xiao Lan. I'll take you to relax."
Ye Qiu held Ning Rongrong's face and gently kissed her.
"Ah! Brother, how can you leave Xiao Lan behind!"
Watching from the side, Xiao Lan's face immediately changed. She came to Ning Rongrong, held her hand, and pleaded.
"Sister Rongrong, I don't want your things anymore. Can you take me with you? Please."
"No way!"
Ning Rongrong hugged Ye Qiu tightly. It had been a long time since they had spent time alone, and she didn't want anyone to be a third wheel.
"Ah! How can you two be like this! I, I'll cry for you to see!"
Looking at Xiao Lan's shiny face, the corners of Ning Rongrong's mouth couldn't help but turn upwards, and she laughed.
"Alright, we'll be out for the morning and come back to accompany you in the afternoon!" In the end, Ye Qiu changed the plan to spend the whole day with Ning Rongrong.
But Xiao Lan still insisted.
"Ah! I don't, I don't want it!"
...
Obviously, Xiao Lan's protests were ineffective.
Outside Tian Dou City, on a mountain peak, a man and a woman appeared.
Ye Qiu stood on the mountain top, carrying Ning Rongrong on his back, facing the cold wind, watching the rolling clouds below. Both of them had relaxed smiles on their faces.
Gently putting her down and hugging her from behind, facing the undulating mountains below and the surging sea of clouds.
"Ye Qiu~"
"Yes, what's wrong? Rongrong~"
Ning Rongrong turned around, hugged Ye Qiu's neck, and the blue eyes radiated a gentle love. She slowly approached Ye Qiu's ear.
"Actually, I want to say, it's not that I'm accommodating you. I just really, really love you!"
Her red lips lightly opened, leaving marks and some moisture on Ye Qiu's earlobe.
"Hehe~ But I still feel uncomfortable. So, even if you're biased, you have to love me well when I quarrel with them! No favoritism allowed!"
Ye Qiu also smiled indulgently. Although it would be troublesome when they quarreled, this was the self-Ning Rongrong should have. Suppressing herself and being cautious all the time was too tiring!
"I will. Mm!"
Before Ye Qiu could finish his answer, Ning Rongrong preemptively kissed him.
Tongues moving, conveying love to each other.
After a while, Ning Rongrong looked at Ye Qiu, who was a bit dizzy like herself, with a sweet smile.
"I know! So, even if you're biased, this lady has accepted you!"
With a forceful pounce, she tackled Ye Qiu to the ground, and another round of messy kissing ensued.
...
The meeting between the two women seemed not as bad as Ye Qiu had imagined these days, although there was a bit of gunpowder smell, they were still relatively restrained.
In the evening, just as Ye Qiu brought Dugu Yan back to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes.
Dugu Yan didn't cause much trouble, but instead, she showed concern for Ning Rongrong's situation.
Ye Qiu conveyed Ning Rongrong's words to her truthfully.
"This lady will definitely prove it to you! I'm not just a vase!"
Regarding this, Dugu Yan just smiled indifferently. She had deliberately come to annoy Ning Rongrong.
But if she could grow up quickly, Dugu Yan would be happy to see it.
After all, they were future sisters!
At night!
Prince's Mansion!
Xue Qinghe had already received the urgent letter.
In the study, looking at the information on it, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The method of dealing with Ye Qiu in the letter didn't change much.
All he could do now was try to recruit him.
"This guy actually has such a big secret on him?"
Seeing the explanation of Ye Qiu's over-age soul ring in the letter, Xue Qinghe couldn't help but feel curious.
Thinking of Ye Qiu, he also recalled the scene where he lost his composure before.
"Hmph!" Xue Qinghe snorted heavily, took out pen and paper, and scribbled on a white sheet.
Then he shouted to a corner of the room.
"Ci Xue!"
"Young Master! What are your orders?"
In the corner, a figure in a black robe appeared, showing a respectful expression.
"Do you have any information about Ye Qiu in the last few days?"
"It seems that Ye Qiu invited both Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong to our restaurant today."
They naturally paid attention to Ye Qiu. As long as the other party appeared in Tian Dou Imperial City, Ci Xue and the others would receive information.
"Hmph! Always accompanying women day by day, I wonder how strong he really is!"
Xue Qinghe pondered for a moment, then added a few strokes on the paper.
"Tomorrow! Arrange for someone to send a letter to Dugu Yan, let her hand it to Ye Qiu. The day after tomorrow, outside Tian Dou Imperial City, ten miles east in the dense forest, meet there!"
As his words fell, Xue Qinghe threw the letter he held to Ci Xue.
"Yes!" Ci Xue accepted the letter and once again concealed himself in the corner of the room.
Xue Qinghe turned the switch on the wall, and a secret door opened. He stepped into the secret room.
In the corner of the secret room he used for cultivation, there was another secret door. Only he could enter.
"Hmph, Ye Qiu! You dare to say I'm disgusting. See how I deal with you the day after tomorrow!"
Muttering to himself, Xue Qinghe walked in.
At this moment, Ye Qiu was doing the job of being a backrest.
Dugu Yan nestled into his arms, leaning on his shoulder, playing with her emerald green nails. Occasionally, she would use her crimson lips to leave marks on Ye Qiu's face.
Onlookers like Ye Lingling looked at the two of them with faces full of disdain.
The well-prepared training ground was filled with a sour smell.
"Ye Qiu, is it okay to ignore the Crown Prince for so long? Do you want me to accompany you?" Dugu Yan looked at Ye Qiu with concern.
"It's fine, it hasn't been too long! Compared to his matters, you guys are more important!" Ye Qiu held the delicate body in his arms.
The meeting between the two women seemed to have no major problems, but there were inevitably some grievances. So Ye Qiu took some time these days to spend more time with both women.
"However, today is indeed time to go see him!" Ye Qiu looked up at the sky; it was almost the agreed time.
"Yes! Be careful on your own~"
"Don't worry! Nothing will happen!"
After bidding farewell to his beloved Dugu Yan, Ye Qiu stood up and walked outside.
As his figure disappeared into the woods, when he appeared again, he was already outside Tian Dou Imperial City.
Everything was arranged, and there was already a carriage waiting for him.
"Kid, get in the car!" The one driving the carriage for Ye Qiu was the snake Spear Douluo.
"Yes! Thank you, Senior!"
On the way, the two didn't have much conversation, and they soon arrived at their destination.
Outside the dense forest, a simple pavilion had been set up.
Another Title Douluo, Ci Xue!
He guarded closely by Xue Qinghe's side.
Hearing the sound of the carriage, Xue Qinghe turned around, his eyes fixed on Ye Qiu who had just got off.
"Ye Qiu, you are quite flirtatious. This Crown Prince has invited you several times, yet you remain indifferent!"
His voice was harsh, and there was a change in the way he addressed Ye Qiu, showing signs of anger.
"Hehe. Your Highness, I'm really sorry! I haven't been feeling well these days." Ye Qiu quickly smiled apologetically.
"Not feeling well? Hmph!"
Xue Qinghe, with hands behind his back, tightly clenched his fists and sneered disdainfully. He scrutinized Ye Qiu for a moment.
"Could it be that you've spent all your energy on women, so you're a bit deficient in your kidneys!?"
"Uh," Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment. What about the royal etiquette?
Just as he was about to answer, Xue Qinghe interrupted him!
"Hmph! I don't want to bother about such matters. This time I called you here to tell you that I agree to those three conditions!"
Xue Qinghe snorted coldly and, without wanting to see Ye Qiu's expression, turned away.
"But the third condition needs some changes! We won't give you soul bones, but you can keep this condition. If you have other needs in the future, you can bring it up again! How about it?"
"Of course, it's acceptable!" Ye Qiu was overjoyed. He didn't expect Xue Qinghe to agree to his conditions.
"Hmph! Don't be too happy yet. Before that, I need to test you a little!"
"What test? Hasn't the compatibility been tested already?" Ye Qiu looked at him strangely, not understanding what trick he was playing.
"It's simple! Have a fight with me, regardless of winning or losing!"
Xue Qinghe's lips curled slightly, as if he could already see the the scene of Ye Qiu being pressed to the ground and being rubbed by him!!
