The next moment, Dai Mubai was sent flying straight out and crashed to the ground. With several cracking sounds, a few more of Dai Mubai's ribs were broken.
Dai Mubai's screams immediately rang out without end. Ma Hongjun and Oscar had never expected Bai Ying to actually attack one of their own.
"What do you mean by this?" Ma Hongjun could no longer hold it in and finally spoke.
"What, you want to fight me? Sure. Let's have a match right now."
The moment Ma Hongjun heard that, he instantly backed down.
"Enough. You handle the aftermath here!"
With that, Bai Ying turned and left.
Bai Ying's actions had undoubtedly provoked public outrage. As a prince of the Star Luo Empire, when had Dai Mubai ever been treated like this?
Unable to suppress the fury in his heart, he suddenly coughed up blood and passed out on the spot.
Seeing Dai Mubai like this, Ning Rongrong was the happiest of all. Back then, Dai Mubai had said she was unfit to remain at Shrek Academy. Now that she saw him in such a state, she could not have been more pleased.
After returning to the hotel, Bai Ying went straight back to his room.
When Zhao Wuji saw Dai Mubai's current condition, he immediately flew into a rage and demanded to know who had done it.
But after hearing the full account of what had happened, Zhao Wuji looked at Dai Mubai with a strange expression. "You two brought this on yourselves. You went looking for women and got yourselves dragged into this mess instead. You've utterly disgraced Shrek Academy."
Dai Mubai had originally thought Zhao Wuji would help him condemn Bai Ying, only to be scolded again.
This was outright discrimination. Dai Mubai could not stand it, but he could only endure it.
Unlike everyone else's grim expressions, Ning Rongrong had never been this happy before. This was the consequence of offending her. How did that feel?
"Alright, go back and rest. We'll be entering the Star Dou Great Forest tomorrow."
"Mubai, take this as a lesson."
"I understand."
Once everyone had returned to their rooms to rest, Ning Rongrong sneakily knocked on Bai Ying's door.
"Damn it, what is it now?"
When Bai Ying opened the door and saw that it was Ning Rongrong, he asked, "Why are you here?"
"I... can I come in first and explain?"
Ning Rongrong said with a blush.
"Sure. But let me warn you—if there's no reason for you to be knocking on my door and disturbing my sleep, I'm in a very bad mood right now."
After entering Bai Ying's room, Ning Rongrong took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for helping me get revenge."
"Revenge? What revenge are you talking about?"
Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth. "Dai Mubai. When I first entered Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai humiliated me. Today counts as getting my revenge."
"Oh, that. I just couldn't stand the sight of him, that's all."
"Is there anything else? If not, you should go back and rest."
"I'm a little scared. Can I... sleep here with you?"
"Are you sure?"
"It's the middle of the night, and you're barging into a man's room. That's dangerous. Do you understand?"
Instead, Ning Rongrong looked completely calm after hearing that. "Dangerous? When you slept in the same bed as Xiao Wu in the dormitory, I watched the whole livestream. I have to say, I guessed right. You really are a little scumbag."
As she spoke, Ning Rongrong walked to the bed, lay down, and said, "Turn off the lights."
To be honest, Ning Rongrong's mind was in turmoil. This was the first time she had slept in a man's bed. Although nothing had happened between them yet, her heart pounded wildly like a startled deer. On the bed, their breaths intertwined, creating a subtle atmosphere.
Moonlight streamed through the window and fell across Ning Rongrong's face, lending her a gentle softness. She kept her eyes tightly closed, trying to steady her breathing and heartbeat. Yet lying in an unfamiliar bed, with a hooligan beside her who might start making moves at any moment, she could not suppress the tension and panic in her heart.
Bai Ying lay on the bed, feeling Ning Rongrong's breath and warmth beside him, and ripples stirred in his heart as well.
"This is absolutely a perfect opportunity."
Bai Ying said, "Your heartbeat is all over the place. Is something bothering you?"
Ning Rongrong suddenly opened her eyes and said, "Nothing. I'm just scared."
Bai Ying said calmly, "Scared of what?"
Ning Rongrong answered, "I'm scared you'll start making moves."
Bai Ying smiled softly. His voice was low and magnetic, as though it could pierce straight into Ning Rongrong's heart. "Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
His voice pulled Ning Rongrong back to reality. She turned to look at Bai Ying. Under the moonlight, his features were sharply defined, his gaze deep. She suddenly felt that her previous worries and fears had been unnecessary. This seemingly cold man was not as frightening as she had imagined.
"I... I don't know." Ning Rongrong's voice trembled slightly. She admitted that she knew far too little about this man.
Bai Ying sat up and moved closer to Ning Rongrong. His gaze was filled with seriousness. "Ning Rongrong, I can tell you this: I'm not someone who likes taking advantage of others. And I would never force a woman to do something she doesn't want to do."
Ning Rongrong's breathing gradually steadied. Bai Ying lay beside her, yet it felt as though he were lying in a bed of thorns, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. His own words from earlier echoed endlessly in his mind, every one of them as sharp as a needle, stabbing pain into his heart.
What he had just said had been so righteous and awe-inspiring that now he could not even come up with an excuse.
He let out a soft sigh and reached out, wanting to smooth away the faint worry between Ning Rongrong's brows. However, his hand paused in midair for a moment before ultimately falling back. He was afraid his actions would disturb Ning Rongrong's sweet dream, and even more afraid that he might take advantage of the situation and do something...
After all, being able to look at such a stunning beauty but not touch her was simply too painful.
There was a good chance he would not be able to resist. If that happened, what would Ning Rongrong think of him?
Suddenly, Ning Rongrong's hand landed on his shoulder, and her entire body pressed against him.
Feeling Ning Rongrong's steady breathing and that soft touch.
The flames in his heart burned hotter and hotter, but he still gritted his teeth and kept telling himself, I absolutely can't do this. Absolutely not.
"What a little witch. A little temptress."
The next day, when Ning Rongrong woke up and saw that her entire body was pressed against Bai Ying, she froze in bewilderment.
"How did I end up over here?"
Bai Ying, dark circles under his eyes, sneered. "Fuck, what do you think? Do you know how tempting you are to me? Last night, I almost..."
"Leave quickly. If someone sees us, they'll probably misunderstand again."
"Go. Now."
