Ning Rongrong's Little Scheme

After treating their injuries, Bai Ying said with a half-smile, "You can leave now."

Ning Rongrong instantly became unhappy when she heard this.

"Are you planning to do something bad again?"

As for what kind of person Bai Ying was, none of them could know better.

"Brother, I want to stay tonight and take care of her. You can go to my room!" Xiao Wu said.

"No need. I want to go to Rongrong's room."

Ning Rongrong's eyes widened in disbelief. Pointing at herself, she stammered, "My... my room? You... you're going to sleep in my room?"

Bai Ying nodded, a half-smile on his face, as if everything was under his control.

Ning Rongrong's pretty face instantly flushed bright red. She knew exactly what Bai Ying was capable of. If he did something to her that night, she probably wouldn't even have a chance to resist.

Watching the two of them, a sly glint flashed through Xiao Wu's eyes. She chuckled and said, "All right, then. Brother can sleep in Rongrong's room. I'll take care of Cat Girl."

Ning Rongrong wanted to refuse, but when she saw Xiao Wu's smiling eyes, she didn't know how to begin. Bai Ying, meanwhile, had already turned around and walked toward Ning Rongrong's room.

Ning Rongrong watched Bai Ying's back with a conflicted expression, feeling both nervous and expectant. She knew she couldn't refuse any of Bai Ying's requests.

While she was still hesitating, Xiao Wu gently patted her shoulder and smiled. "Rongrong, don't worry. Brother isn't a bad person."

Ning Rongrong looked back at Xiao Wu, a helpless look flashing through her eyes. She nodded and said softly, "I know."

"If he isn't a bad person, then there aren't any bad people in the world."

Then, she gathered her courage and walked toward her room. The door gently closed behind her, leaving Xiao Wu and Cat Girl, who was lying on the bed.

Xiao Wu looked at Cat Girl's peaceful sleeping face, deeply moved. She gently took Cat Girl's hand, her eyes shining with determination.

Bai Ying suddenly grabbed Ning Rongrong by the wrist. Her entire body stiffened, and her heart began to race. Bai Ying's low, magnetic voice sounded softly beside her ear. "You ruined my good time. Looks like you haven't been behaving lately, Rongrong?"

Ning Rongrong's mind went blank. She didn't dare raise her head to look at Bai Ying's face.

"I... I..." Ning Rongrong stammered, not knowing what to say. Her heart was filled with panic and shame. She felt as though Bai Ying had seen right through her, leaving her nowhere to hide.

By the time they reached Ning Rongrong's room, she was extremely nervous.

Bai Ying wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he smiled and said, "Rongrong, how is your cultivation going? How many levels of Heart Separation Control can you reach?"

Ning Rongrong said, "I can already reach the Four-Aperture Constant Heart. How is that? Aren't I amazing?"

Bai Ying said, "You think that's impressive? Although Heart Separation Control is difficult to cultivate, you've only reached this level. You've really disappointed me."

"Of course, I'm not blaming you. It's just that your cultivation speed is far too slow."

A disappointed expression immediately appeared on Ning Rongrong's face. She had thought her cultivation speed was already very fast, but in Bai Ying's eyes, it still wasn't enough. She lowered her head, her heart filled with frustration.

Seeing her dejected appearance, Bai Ying couldn't help feeling a little reluctant to be harsh. He gently patted Ning Rongrong's head and said softly, "Rongrong, don't be discouraged. Your cultivation speed is already very fast. It just falls a little short of what I expected. As long as you keep working hard, you'll definitely make even greater progress."

Ning Rongrong raised her head and looked at Bai Ying's encouraging eyes. The disappointment in her heart gradually faded. She nodded and said firmly, "Mm, I'll keep working hard. I won't disappoint you!"

Suddenly, Ning Rongrong felt her body fall backward.

Bai Ying's sudden movement caught Ning Rongrong off guard, and he pulled her tightly into his arms. Her heart instantly began to race, and a shy blush spread across her face. Her cheeks felt as though they were burning.

A stubborn glint flashed through Ning Rongrong's eyes. She forcefully pushed Bai Ying away and sat up, staring straight into his eyes. Her voice trembled slightly, but it was filled with determination. "All you know is how to scold me. If you're so capable, go find Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu instead! Do you have any idea how badly you've damaged my confidence?"

Bai Ying looked at her, surprise flashing through his eyes. He hadn't expected Ning Rongrong to react like this, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled faintly and sat down beside the bed. Gently taking Ning Rongrong's hand, he said softly, "Rongrong, I wasn't blaming you. I just want you to understand how great the responsibility you'll have to bear is as the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's sect master. I hope you'll cultivate harder, not only for yourself but also for the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Ning Rongrong felt a little better after hearing this. She then said, "You're not allowed to scold me again in the future, understand? Be careful, or I really won't talk to you anymore."

Seeing the slight grievance on Ning Rongrong's face, Bai Ying's heart softened. He gently nodded and said, "All right. I won't scold you ever again. I won't make you sad anymore."

Looking at the earnestness in Bai Ying's eyes, the anger in Ning Rongrong's heart gradually faded. She lightly bit her lip, then looked up at Bai Ying, determination flashing through her eyes. "Then you have to treat me a little better from now on. You can't always be so fierce with me like before."

Bai Ying smiled faintly and pulled Ning Rongrong into his arms. He said softly, "Don't worry, Rongrong. I'll always treat you well. I'll never be fierce with you again."

Bai Ying sighed lightly, secretly laughing bitterly to himself. He remembered something he had heard on Earth: "Women need to be coaxed." Now that he thought about it, that saying really wasn't wrong at all.

He lowered his head and looked at Ning Rongrong in his arms, gently stroking her cheek. He said softly, "Rongrong, could you give me a kiss?"

Ning Rongrong's face instantly flushed with embarrassment. She glared coquettishly at Bai Ying and chided him, "You big bully. All you know is how to take advantage of me."

Seeing her shy appearance, Bai Ying's heart stirred. He gently took Ning Rongrong's hand, his gaze tender yet firm. "Rongrong, we're already an old married couple. How could this count as taking advantage? I just want to be a little closer to you and let you feel my love."

Ning Rongrong suddenly asked, her voice playful and coquettish, "Are you saying I'm old?"

Bai Ying froze for a moment before laughing. "Of course not. How could you be old? You'll always be the person I love most."

Looking at the earnestness in Bai Ying's eyes, Ning Rongrong's doubts instantly vanished. She laughed softly, happiness shining in her eyes. She wrapped her arms around Bai Ying's neck and took the initiative to press her lips against his.

Feeling Ning Rongrong take the initiative, Bai Ying's heart surged with excitement. He hugged her tightly in return.

With Ning Rongrong taking the initiative, Bai Ying felt as though he were enveloped by a warm current. It instantly ignited the passion deep within him.

After the kiss, a satisfied and happy smile spread across Ning Rongrong's face. She leaned gently against Bai Ying's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat and feeling the warmth of his body. Bai Ying lowered his head to look at her, deep affection shining in his eyes.

He gently stroked Ning Rongrong's long hair and said softly, "Rongrong, we haven't seen each other for so many days, but your stamina has improved."

Hearing this, Ning Rongrong smiled proudly. She raised her head to look at Bai Ying, confidence shining in her eyes. "Of course. I've been working hard at cultivation all this time. How could I not have improved?"
