Chapter 154: The meticulously dressed Ye Lingling prepares to absorb the Dragon King Level Soul Bone! [Five Updates]_1

Pale pink, thin lips, delicately small jade nose.

The girl had clearly dressed with care, wearing a pure and beautifully minimal makeup look.

Paired with a long white fringe dress cinched at the waist by a silk ribbon, her slender waist seemed as if it could not withstand a single grip, like a fairy from a painting.

At this moment, her large, expressive eyes sparkled as they looked directly at Luo Yu.

Her long, black, and glossy hair cascaded over her shoulders, giving off a fragrance of flowers and grass.

The girl's jade fingers gently combed through her hair, tucking strands behind her ear to reveal her snow-white nape.

The dangling crystal earrings looked especially fresh and clean.

"Brother Yu?" Ye Lingling's voice was ethereal and tranquil.

Luo Yu snapped back to reality.

No wonder, her outfit was so fitting for her temperament.

She looked truly beautiful.

"Why did you just come over?" Luo Yu asked.

Ye Lingling explained softly, "I was delayed by something, I'm sorry, Brother Yu."

"It's okay, come in."

Ye Lingling followed Luo Yu into the room.

Her cheeks were blushing.

In fact, it wasn't that she was delayed by something.

It was clearly because this was her first time going on a date with a man, and she was nervous.

So she had hesitated over and over again about what kind of outfit would be better.

Lacking experience, she didn't even know what to wear; changing outfits repeatedly, she couldn't decide.

After entering the room, Ye Lingling was clearly a bit constrained.

This was the first time in her life she had been alone with a man.

Although her personality was more mature than her peers, she was still a blank slate when it came to romance.

Luo Yu smiled and said, "Sit down, why are you standing there looking silly?"

"Oh... Oh!"

Ye Lingling gently lifted the fringed hem of her dress and sat down on the bed.

She looked down at her chest and remained silent.

Luo Yu sat next to her, and Ye Lingling's body shook visibly.

This scene left the man with mixed emotions of laughter and tears.

"I won't eat you, why are you nervous?"

Ye Lingling looked up, her eyes filled with reproach, "I don't want to be nervous either."

"Who asked you to choose your bedroom for our first date?"

"I'm not stupid; I always feel like I'm about to be devoured at any moment."

Luo Yu's mouth twitched, "Is that what you think of me, am I that kind of person?"

Ye Lingling looked into his eyes for a few seconds, then affirmed, "You are."

Luo Yu shook his head, "Then you must have seen me wrong, I am a paragon of virtue!"

"Pfft."

Ye Lingling suddenly burst out laughing.

"Brother Yu, if you told me anything else, I would totally believe you."

"But if you say you're a paragon of virtue, not just me, does anyone believe that?"

Under the bed: Don't believe +2

In the wardrobe: Don't believe +2

Luo Yu felt as if he could sense malice from the whole room, and his face fell.

"You misunderstand, actually, I called you here, really just to show you a treasure."

"Cut it out."

Ye Lingling pursed her lips, not buying it.

Coming to your bedroom in the middle of the night to see a treasure?

Which treasure?

Luo Yu decided to prove his innocence.

A flash of light in his hand revealed an eight-petal orchid.

The orchid was completely white and crystal clear, giving a sense of elegance and ethereality.

It matched Ye Lingling's temperament perfectly.

"Brother Yu, what flower is this?"

Just one look and Ye Lingling was captivated, incredibly fond of it.

"This is called an Eight-petal Immortal Orchid. Its medicinal properties are gentle and mellow. Although it can't greatly increase Soul Power, taking it can stabilize one's foundation, enhance vitality, and supplement any congenital deficiencies in essence and energy."

"You're giving it to me?" Ye Lingling's face lit up with joy.

"Of course."

Ye Lingling received the Eight-petal Immortal Orchid, and couldn't bear to let go.

But she soon handed it back.

"Brother Yu, I can't accept this, it's too precious."

"Really don't want it?"

Ye Lingling's face showed reluctance, but her words were very firm, "I can feel the abundant vitality contained in this Immortal Herb. I can't accept such a treasure, Brother Yu, you should keep it for yourself."

Luo Yu silently nodded, seeing the sincerity in her emotions.

He smiled and deflected the Eight-petal Immortal Orchid back to her.

"If I'm giving it to you, then take it."

"This Immortal Orchid may be extraordinary, but it's of no use to me."

"It was specifically chosen to complement your Nine-heart Asiatic Apple."

"Moreover, this Eight-petal Immortal Orchid and the Damask Tulip that Ning Rongrong consumed have synergistic effects."

"What specific benefits it brings isn't clear yet, but if you practice together in the future, it will definitely be beneficial."

Seeing Luo Yu's thoughtful consideration, Ye Lingling's nose felt a sudden sting.

Having lost her parents at a young age, she lived a lonely life.

It had been a long time since she had felt such close care from someone.

"Brother Yu, can I hug you?"

Ye Lingling's eyes reddened, but not a single tear fell.

Luo Yu opened his arms and pulled her tightly into his embrace.

Ye Lingling's gaze was hazy, feeling secure in the man's arms.

The four women hidden under the bed and in the cabinet had various expressions, all filled with a sense of loss.

Eventually, when Ye Lingling was driven out of the room by Luo Yu,

The look of surprise on her pretty face lingered.

What was this situation?

Had the man changed his ways?

She was already prepared to heal her wounds after tonight.

But the man did nothing and just sent her away like that?

Ye Lingling couldn't help but deeply doubt.

Could it be that Brother Yu really was a gentleman and it was all a misunderstanding by her and the other women?

After sending Ye Lingling away, Luo Yu also sent away the Zhu Zhuqing Sisters.

He turned a blind eye to their resentful glances.

He focused all his energy on dealing with the mother and daughter hiding under the bed.

"Boom, boom!"

Luo Yu feigned calm and knocked on the bed board.

"Everyone's gone, come out."

Xiaowu was the first to climb out, her delicate body silent.

Her luscious red lips were tightly pursed.

Then the voluptuous qi pao-clad beauty emerged.

One leg was sheathed in a black fishnet stocking, while the other was bare and fair.

Upon emerging, the beauty immediately grabbed Xiaowu's arm, her motherly authority on display, "Xiao Yu, I'm taking my daughter home first, I can't stay with you tonight, you should rest."

Xiaowu pouted, "Brother Yu, I'm going back with mom first."

Luo Yu was surprised.

What was this situation?

Wasn't it supposed to be a conflict between mother and daughter, why did it turn into A Wu completely overwhelming the situation?

It seemed she even had the upper hand.

Has the guest become the host?

However, he was happy with this turn of events, as it meant he could relax his tensed nerves.

Before the mother and daughter left, he gave them one final piece of advice.

"The Immortal Herbs I gave to both of you were bred from the Essence of Star and Moon."

"If you absorb them together, there might be a chance to promote bloodline evolution."

"Give it a try when you get back."

The mother and daughter thanked him with joy.

Before stepping out the door, Xiaowu took a furtive glance back and mouthed something.

It was as if she was saying, I'll come back.

Meanwhile, Ning Rongrong bit her teeth hard in another room, growing impatient.

"Bad Brother Yu!"

"Stinky Brother Yu!!"

"I don't want to be on good terms with you anymore."

"I'm all bathed and dressed, and you stood me up, it's too much."
