Dai Mubai closed the window, a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
I've decided you're my brother!
"Wow!"
Oscar exclaimed—
"This newcomer can really endure!"
"Although I don't know what happened in the room."
"Especially with Zhu Zhuqing..."
A dangerous gaze swept over, causing Oscar to shrink his neck.
"Don't even think about Zhu Zhuqing! She's mine!" Dai Mubai warned, "Also, don't mention anything about my past! Otherwise, don't blame me for turning hostile!"
Oscar clicked his tongue, not daring to retort.
After all, the guy with the bigger fist wins.
"So, Zhu Zhuqing is yours."
Oscar tentatively asked—
"Xiao Wu and that Tang San look like a couple."
"This last one, Ning Rongrong, you can't possibly be competing with me for her, right?"
Dai Mubai waved his hand dismissively.
"If you can catch her, go ahead."
"But she's from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and as far as I know, Ning Rongrong..."
"Forget it, it won't hurt to try."
Oscar chuckled happily.
Right!
Trying won't hurt, right!
Hehehe—
The commotion in the room lasted for most of the night.
Before finally stopping.
Zhuge Lan still didn't move.
After a while.
"Creak—"
The wooden door opened.
Zhu Zhuqing was wrapped in a bed sheet, only revealing a pair of purple peach blossom eyes.
Seeing Zhuge Lan guarding the door, a hint of emotion flashed in her cold eyes.
Her tone was no longer icy, but slightly gentle—
"Thank you."
"I feel like I've indeed become a lot stronger."
"Are there any other steps next?"
"If not, I need to go back and clean up."
After all, she was a girl.
It was uncomfortable to have stains on her body.
Zhuge Lan stood up and made way.
"Go, hurry up and rest."
"School starts tomorrow, it wouldn't be good to be late."
Zhu Zhuqing hummed in agreement and left quickly.
She didn't return to the dormitory, but went to the bathhouse.
Zhuge Lan stretched lazily and returned to the room.
The window was wide open for ventilation, and the floor was wet, probably recently mopped.
This Zhu Zhuqing was quite sensible.
Zhuge Lan lay down, ready to sleep.
But his mind was full of Zhu Zhuqing's twisting, alluring figure.
'System, can I pay for sleep?'
[1 Emotion Point to purchase "Deep Sleep", 1 minute is comparable to 1 hour of sleep, with wake-up service included!]
'Buy it!'
[1 Emotion Point consumed, Host is asleep!]
Zhuge Lan's vision went black, and he fell asleep.
He didn't know how long had passed.
He suddenly flipped over and sat up, his eyes meeting Zhu Zhuqing's in confusion.
[Wake-up service completed, wishing the Host another glorious day!]
Oh~
That's what it was.
But Zhu Zhuqing misunderstood.
Having been hunted down before, she understood that maintaining vigilance even in sleep required blood and sweat.
She felt even more sympathy for Zhuge Lan.
"It's time for breakfast." Zhu Zhuqing said softly, "There's only an hour left before school starts."
Zhuge Lan nodded.
Because the system's [Deep Sleep] was too effective, he slept in his clothes last night.
So he got straight out of bed, washed up quickly, and was ready to leave.
But in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, Zhuge Lan was too tired from protecting her last night.
That's why he slept with his clothes on.
And all she gave was just a verbal promise.
She couldn't help but feel guilty.
She rarely took the initiative to start a conversation: "I feel like my body is much stronger, but I don't know how much the soul ring's age has increased, do you know the approximate range?"
Zhuge Lan didn't answer immediately.
'System, can you measure a person's soul ring age?'
[1 Emotion Point to purchase "Physical Scan", can obtain the target's detailed data!]
'Buy!'
