Ning Rongrong's Confession Rejected, Zhu Zhuqing Reaps the Reward

Wearing a gentle smile, Ning Rongrong extended her most sincere invitation to Lin Tian.

As long as someone had material needs, she had ten thousand ways to make them "submit." Money was the one thing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect never lacked; even buying Skywater Academy would be no problem.

She had already written home that morning, asking Ning Fengzhi to buy Skywater Academy.

Lin Tian was completely stunned by her words.

Holy shit!

He had forgotten that Ning Rongrong was a rich girl. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was wealthy enough to rival a nation, so paying for students to move out would be no problem at all. She could even pay to build a new dormitory.

But so what? He wasn't greedy for money.

Money was useless on the Douluo Continent. All he needed to do was quickly improve his cultivation and build good relationships with Gu Yuena and the others.

With his aptitude, as long as he cultivated diligently, he would grow stronger and become a Titled Douluo, a Super Douluo, or even a Limit Douluo, and reach level one hundred to become a god.

Once he had cultivation, money and power would follow.

In his eyes, strength was king; everything else was empty.

Besides, he couldn't stand rich girls like Ning Rongrong, who thought having a little money made them so great.

"Sorry, I like living with Yuena, Bing'er, and Yue'er. Please bother me less from now on."

With that, Lin Tian pushed Ning Rongrong outside and moved to close the door.

Seeing this, Ning Rongrong hurriedly stuck her hand through the doorway, trying to stop him.

Lin Tian didn't see it and caught her hand in the door.

"Ah, that hurts!"

"Lin Tian, even if you don't like me and hate me, you didn't have to treat me like this."

Ning Rongrong cried out in pain, tears falling from her eyes.

Lin Tian hadn't expected this either. Startled, he hurriedly opened the door and apologized. "Classmate Ning Rongrong, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. But why did you stick your hand in?"

With that, Lin Tian took her arm and gently squeezed the spot that had been caught, checking for swelling or a fracture. After all, he had used too much force just now.

Seeing that Lin Tian was concerned about her, Ning Rongrong felt warmth in her heart. She pretended to lose her footing and fell straight into his arms.

Lin Tian was examining Ning Rongrong's hand and didn't react in time.

All he felt was Ning Rongrong's whole body leaning against him, and something soft against both his hands.

For a moment, Lin Tian felt as though two plump bighead carp had surrounded his hands.

Though the fish weren't very plump, they were exquisite, leaving him somewhat refreshed and delighted.

But even though Lin Tian had taken advantage of Ning Rongrong's softness, he was still repulsed by what she was deliberately doing.

"Ow, Lin Tian, my hand hurts so much. It must be broken. You have to take responsibility for me."

Nestled in Lin Tian's arms, Ning Rongrong snickered inwardly.

She refused to believe that even this wouldn't win Lin Tian's favor.

"Classmate Ning Rongrong, your hand is fine. Stop pretending."

Lin Tian took a deep breath and shoved the fooling Ning Rongrong away, his face full of anger.

What was this?

Ning Rongrong couldn't get what she wanted with money, so now she wanted to use her charms to win his favor?

He wasn't an animal that thought with its lower half.

[Lin Tian hates Ning Rongrong. Bad luck +6, cultivation speed reduced by 6%.]

The content appeared on the Heavenly Screen, and Ning Rongrong froze.

What?

She had just been so forward, so why did Lin Tian hate her even more? What had she done wrong?

"Lin Tian, how can you treat me like this?"

"My hand is injured, and you're still yelling at me."

"I'm a girl. Can't you be a little nicer to me?"

Ning Rongrong cried, feeling wronged. She no longer knew what to do.

What did it take to make Lin Tian feel favorably toward her? What did it take to make him like her?

"Classmate Ning Rongrong, I'm not deliberately singling you out. I just want us to keep some distance, but you insist on pestering me. Can't we just be ordinary classmates?"

Lin Tian took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and had a proper, serious talk with Ning Rongrong.

He had to make himself clear. Otherwise, with Ning Rongrong's personality, there would be no end to it.

"But I like you. I want to pursue you. Is that wrong?"

Seeing that Lin Tian insisted on keeping his distance, Ning Rongrong grew anxious and confessed outright.

Though she didn't mean it, she urgently needed an excuse to keep pestering him.

Boom!

Hearing that, Lin Tian's thoughts were thrown into a bit of a muddle.

What?

Ning Rongrong liked him? She wanted to pursue him?

No way!

He had only just arrived on the Douluo Continent, and the two of them had only met that morning. How could Ning Rongrong possibly have fallen for him?

Although he was very handsome now, that wasn't enough to make Ning Rongrong fall in love with him at first sight. It was far too strange.

"Classmate Ning Rongrong, I'm grateful that you think so highly of me, but I have to make myself clear."

"You're not my type, and we wouldn't be right together. So please have some self-respect from now on and stop pestering me."

"I'm sure you'll meet a better man than me someday."

"I'm going to rest now, so please leave."

Lin Tian took a deep breath and made himself clear in front of everyone.

"Ning Rongrong, Lin Tian has made himself clear. You can leave now."

"If you keep pestering him, Lin Tian might feel too embarrassed to hit you, but don't blame me for getting rough."

Having heard Lin Tian's stance clearly, Gu Yuena stepped forward.

Since Lin Tian wasn't interested in Ning Rongrong at all, she would step in and deal with it.

"Don't you dare! My father is the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"If you dare hit me, I'll have my father kill you."

Ning Rongrong was already angry. Seeing that even Gu Yuena dared to talk back to her, she was so furious that she threatened her outright.

"Heh, you can try!"

Gu Yuena smiled disdainfully, a cold killing aura radiating from her.

She had now recovered from half her injuries and could wield strength infinitely close to that of a god.

On the Douluo Continent, she was invincible. No one was her match.

If they pushed her too far, she would wipe out the damned Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Lin Tian, Shui Bing'er, and Shui Yue'er were startled when they felt her killing aura.

Ning Rongrong in particular was terrified. She nearly lost her footing and collapsed to the ground.

Just now, she had suddenly felt as though she were being killed.

"Hmph, just you wait. Sooner or later, I'll make you pay."

"Lin Tian, it doesn't matter if you don't like me, but love is free. You have no right to stop me from liking you."

"No matter how hard it is, I won't give up. I'll think of every way to win you over and capture your heart."

Ning Rongrong suppressed the fear in her heart, left those words behind, and turned to leave.

"Lin Tian, Rongrong is just impatient. Please don't blame her."

"My name is Zhu Zhuqing. We'll be classmates from now on, so I hope we'll get along."

Seeing that Ning Rongrong had left, Zhu Zhuqing felt it would be awkward to stay.

Before returning to the dormitory next door, she took the initiative to reach out and introduce herself, hoping to leave a good impression.

"Hello. Let's help each other and grow together."

Lin Tian admired Zhu Zhuqing's personality. With a gentle smile, he reached out and shook her hand, a sign of his approval.

[Zhu Zhuqing of the Star Luo Empire has gained Lin Tian's approval. Martial Soul upgraded to Nine Netherworld Hell Civet.]

Having returned to the dormitory, Ning Rongrong was dumbfounded when she saw the content on the Heavenly Screen.

What was this?

After all her efforts, she had actually helped Zhu Zhuqing instead.

Why had things turned out like this?

She refused to accept it!
