It was one thing to tease him, but now she even dared to lie to him.
Enraged, Ye Qiu lunged straight at her.
A look of panic flashed across Xiao Lan's face as she instantly broke free from Ning Rongrong's grasp.
"Ah!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed.
"Ah! Brother! Xiao Lan has another set of clothes to change into!" Xiao Lan cried out as she dodged. Without daring to turn around, she dashed behind the screen in a flash.
Only a man and a woman remained on the bed.
Blue eyes met blue pupils.
"…" Ning Rongrong stared at Ye Qiu, who was pressing down on her, her face burning hot.
Ye Qiu frowned slightly. The pressure on his left chest made him feel uncomfortable.
"This… I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!" After realizing what had happened, Ye Qiu quickly stood up and moved away from her.
As if he had seen something shocking, he immediately turned his back.
Ning Rongrong's skirt had slipped down to her waist, revealing the pink shorts underneath.
"What?!"
Noticing Ye Qiu's strange reaction, Ning Rongrong also realized what was wrong. She hurriedly pulled her top back into place, straightened her skirt, and dragged the blanket over herself.
"Ye Qiu! You bastard! Scumbag! Beast! You're disgusting!"
Ye Qiu smiled bitterly. He never expected two more labels to be added to his name.
The air fell silent.
Too embarrassed to sit back down, Ye Qiu moved to the table instead.
"Xiao Lan, how did you explain it to Ning Rongrong?" Ye Qiu asked silently.
"Brother~ Xiao Lan told her it's one of my special soul skills!"
Hearing this, Ye Qiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she hadn't said anything unnecessary.
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Ning Rongrong staring at him intently, sending a chill down his spine.
Ye Qiu quickly urged Xiao Lan again.
"Come out once you're done changing!"
"No! Brother will bully me!"
"…Come out, and I promise I won't flick you."
"Really?"
"Really!" Ye Qiu replied without hesitation.
As soon as he finished speaking, a blue-haired butterfly dressed in green fluttered out from behind the screen.
The style of the outfit was surprisingly similar to what Ning Rongrong usually wore.
"Brother~ Xiao Lan was wrong!" She rushed straight into Ye Qiu's arms, wrapping her arms around his neck and rubbing her cheek against his.
"Alright, alright! I forgive you!" Ye Qiu said helplessly, gently pushing her face away.
"Smack! Brother is the best!" After giving him a quick kiss, she immediately jumped back.
Lifting her skirt with both hands, she twirled in front of him a few times.
"Brother! Sister Rongrong~ Isn't Xiao Lan pretty?"
"It's beautiful," Ning Rongrong said, clearly satisfied with the dress she had chosen.
Ye Qiu looked momentarily dazed.
Staring at the bluish figure before him, that familiar question echoed in his ears once more.
Do you think I'm pretty?
It was back. Everything was back.
Memories of that night surged into his mind like a tidal wave—
three questions, two mouthfuls of strong liquor, and a kiss…
His gaze drifted involuntarily toward Ning Rongrong. Only then did he realize that he had indeed behaved like a bit of a jerk.
"Why… why are you looking at me like that?" Ning Rongrong asked sharply, noticing his stare.
"Ah! No—nothing!" Ye Qiu quickly turned his head away. "Actually… you're pretty too."
Ning Rongrong's face instantly flushed. Bathed in the rosy light streaming through the window, she looked breathtaking.
That bastard! She knew he was talking about her.
"Brother~ are you talking about Xiao Lan?" Xiao Lan asked innocently.
"Yes! Xiao Lan is very pretty too!" Ye Qiu nodded with a faint smile.
"Hmph! Scumbag~" Ning Rongrong muttered. What had almost been a touching moment vanished instantly.
Ye Qiu's smile stiffened.
Fortunately, this time, there was only one word.
Gulu~
A soft sound came from the bed. Ning Rongrong lowered her head, her face flushing with embarrassment.
"Hehe~ Is Sister Rongrong hungry?" Xiao Lan leaned over, pressing against her shoulder and placing a hand on her stomach.
"Yes," Ning Rongrong nodded.
"I'll have someone prepare some food and bring over some clothes as well," Ye Qiu said as he stood up.
"Thank you~"
Just as Ye Qiu reached the door, he turned back in mild surprise. This young miss seemed to have become a little more polite.
After Ye Qiu left, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Lan leaned against each other, gazing at the sunset outside the window, recalling that night.
That guy probably remembered that kiss… Hmph! I won't easily give up on someone I've set my sights on!
A faint smile curved Ning Rongrong's lips.
At least for now, she had the advantage.
"Xiao Lan… can you tell me about Sister Zhu Qing?" Ning Rongrong asked.
"Yeah!"
"What are her special characteristics?"
"Characteristics?" Xiao Lan thought for a moment, then looked at Ning Rongrong's chest and blurted out, "She's older than Sister Rongrong!"
Then she glanced at herself and patted her own chest.
"She's also older than Xiao Lan!"
"Anyway, every time she hugs my brother, he blushes!"
"Huh? Sister Rongrong, what's wrong? Xiao Lan didn't say anything wrong!"
"…Hehe!" Ning Rongrong forced a laugh, gritting her teeth as she stared at Xiao Lan, wishing she could kick her down again.
Why put herself last on the list?!
Even if that so-called Sister Zhu Qing was outstanding, did Xiao Lan really think Ning Rongrong couldn't compare to a little girl?
She straightened her back, glanced at herself, then looked at Xiao Lan's figure.
Her face instantly turned bright red.
This made no sense. How could this be happening?!
"Sister Rongrong~ why are you looking at me like that?" Xiao Lan clutched her chest warily.
Ning Rongrong was on the verge of tears, her face burning with embarrassment.
-----------------
The next morning, Ye Qiu got up very early.
As the purple glow in the eastern sky gradually faded, he finished cultivating the Purple Demon Eye on the rooftop, leapt down, and landed in front of Xiao Lan's door.
He didn't know what the two of them had talked about the previous night, but he had been kicked out right after dinner.
Knock, knock, knock.
Ye Qiu knocked on the door.
"Little Blue! Your brother will be going to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy in a few days. Don't leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School again, understand?"
He wasn't sure whether Tang Hao had completely left Tiandou City. No matter what, it was safest for Xiao Lan to stay here.
"Okay… Xiao Lan~" her sleepy voice answered from inside.
Still feeling uneasy, Ye Qiu added,
"Miss Rongrong, please take good care of Xiao Lan—and don't take her outside."
