"Just talk properly, don't kick me around!"
Ye Qiu frowned, covering his ears, opened his eyes, glared at Xiao Wu, turned over, and continued to close his eyes.
"Then hurry up and get up and pack your things." Xiao Wu pouted, looking at Ye Qiu who had turned away, and reached out to tug at his clothes.
"I'm asking, are you going home with me, or are you going home with Tang San?"
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes, turned his head back, and looked at Xiao Wu impatiently.
Xiao Wu stiffened, her eyes flickered, she withdrew her small hand, and asked strangely, "Is there a difference? Aren't you two from the same village?"
Ye Qiu shrugged. "Of course there's a difference. If you want to go home with Tang San, I'll be unhappy."
Xiao Wu's face began to turn red, she looked flustered, and stammered, "Who, who cares if you're happy, as long as I'm happy. Hmph!"
Seeing Xiao Wu's somewhat panicked look, Ye Qiu's face showed a hint of a smile.
It seemed the past year hadn't been wasted.
Ye Qiu slowly sat up, looked at his things, and spread his hands.
"I really don't have much to pack, just a few sets of clothes. Why don't you pack them for me?"
"What?! You wish! I won't do it."
"If you're willing to do it, I can give you a piece of candy, carrot-flavored, how about it?"
Ye Qiu dangled his index finger in front of Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu's originally resistant little face immediately softened.
"Really? You won't lie to me."
Xiao Wu swallowed a little shamefully. Ever since she had to pay for it, she only got to eat it at the beginning of the month. If she bought too much, she couldn't control herself and would finish it quickly.
"How could I? When have I ever lied to you?" Ye Qiu said with a face full of sincerity.
"Haven't you bullied Sister Xiao Wu enough?"
Xiao Wu rubbed her pert buttocks with a blush. Although her Soul Power was only slightly lower than Ye Qiu's, Ye Qiu's strength was far superior to hers. Every time they fought, she was no match for Ye Qiu.
"Who told you to not listen? Besides, bullying you and lying to you are two different things." As Ye Qiu spoke, he reached out to pinch her aggrieved-looking pretty face.
But Xiao Wu dodged him, her shy, beautiful eyes glaring at him, her face serious, and she said coquettishly, "No touching! That's a different price."
"Haha, alright."
Ye Qiu spread his hands helplessly, he could only blame himself for setting a bad example, and for the little rabbit who fell for her desires, she had become obsessed with money.
"Then hurry up and pack. I'll lie down for a bit longer." Ye Qiu casually ordered, stood up, stretched, walked a few steps, and then lay down by Xiao Wu's bed.
"Hmph! Always bossing Sister Xiao Wu around." Looking at the lazy Ye Qiu, Xiao Wu snorted coldly, then obediently climbed onto Ye Qiu's bed and began to fold his clothes.
Looking at the relatively well-behaved Xiao Wu, Ye Qiu's face showed a hint of contentment.
In one year, he, who was originally level twelve, was the fastest to break through to level seventeen. Even though Tang San was level thirteen after obtaining the Soul Ring and had the Mysterious Heaven Skill, he was gradually falling behind.
Waiting was always long. Ye Qiu was waiting for Xiao Wu to break through to Soul Elder, or for his own Soul Skill to be sufficient to deal with certain dangers, before he would go to the Sunset Forest near Heaven Dou City.
Although Teleportation had distance limitations, it was still a life-saving artifact, and Ye Qiu didn't dislike it.
At this rate, before graduating from Notting Academy, Ye Qiu could guarantee his cultivation would exceed level thirty. It was time to find an opportunity to go out and explore, as long as safety was guaranteed.
While Ye Qiu was thinking, Xiao Wu had already neatly folded all his clothes. It was obvious she had done this before, as she did it with practiced ease. She bounced twice and then jumped to the bedside, pushing Ye Qiu twice.
"Ye Qiu, I've finished packing for you, hurry up and give it to me~"
"Is that so? Then thank you for your hard work."
Ye Qiu sat up, glanced at his neatly made bed, even the quilt was folded neatly, it was indeed very tidy and pleasing to the eye.
"Stop with the useless talk, hurry up and give Sister Xiao Wu her reward." Xiao Wu smiled and spread her hands in front of Ye Qiu, beckoning with her finger.
"How about this: you owe me six silver soul coins. You helped me pack, so I'll waive two. How about it? Am I generous enough!" Ye Qiu took the candy out of his mouth and looked at the pretty girl in front of him, whose face was already contorting, with a smile.
"How can this be?!" Xiao Wu exclaimed, then grabbed Ye Qiu's arm and began to act spoiled. "Ye Qiu~ Those silver soul coins, I'll return them to you when my subsidy comes through."
Seeing that Ye Qiu remained unmoved and was trying to escape payment, Xiao Wu bared her fangs, gritted her teeth, and said, "Ye Qiu, you must give Sister Xiao Wu something to eat today. Otherwise, I'm not done with you. Ah! Wuwu~"
Looking at the flailing Xiao Wu, Ye Qiu couldn't help but chuckle. He had no choice but to indulge her, took the candy in his hand and put it into her mouth, then turned and walked away.
"Ah wu! Ptooey, ptooey!"
Xiao Wu whimpered twice, quickly took it out, turned her face, spat twice, and her face turned red.
Turning to look at Ye Qiu, who had returned to his own bed, she glared angrily. "Ye Qiu, why did you give Sister Xiao Wu something you've already eaten again?"
"Take it or leave it. If you don't want it, just throw it away. I've already waived two silver soul coins for you, what more do you want? You insatiable rabbit!" Ye Qiu had a smug look on his face, raised his eyebrows at Xiao Wu, and then lay down.
"Ah--!"
Hearing the word "rabbit," Xiao Wu's emotions became agitated. She directly threw the candy at Ye Qiu.
"Ye Qiu, Sister Xiao Wu wants to duel you!"
Before she finished speaking.
Xiao Wu immediately bared her fangs and claws, pouncing on Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu, quick as lightning, caught the "hidden weapon" she threw, held it in his mouth, and freed his hands to meet the bristling Xiao Wu.
The others remaining in the Seventh Dorm were long accustomed to this. Xiao Wu and Ye Qiu had minor skirmishes every few days; if they didn't argue one day, they'd actually feel a bit uneasy.
Bang! Puff!
Splat! Splat! Splat!
"Ah!"
"Ah~ Stop! Don't hit me anymore, Sister Xiao Wu knows she was wrong. I surrender!"
A few muffled thuds of fists and feet colliding, a few rapid sharp cracks, followed by the familiar screams and pleas for mercy from Sister Xiao Wu that the residents of the Seventh Dorm had come to know so well.
After a while.
Ye Qiu dispelled his Martial Soul Avatar and stood by the wall, slightly out of breath, his clothes perfectly neat. He looked at the little rabbit stuck to the wall.
Xiao Wu, on the other hand, was plastered to the wall by a spider web, her clothes disheveled. Her small hands were raised, bound to the wall. She wriggled her burning backside slightly, tears glistening in her eyes, her face a mixture of shyness, anger, and fear.
"Honestly, if you don't get beaten for three days, they'll start tearing down the roof."
Ye Qiu wiped a bead of sweat that wasn't there, looking at the pink rabbit who kept challenging him, and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Who told you to always call me a rabbit!" Xiao Wu's aggrieved voice rang out.
Seeing Xiao Wu's face full of resentment, Ye Qiu, with a lollipop in his mouth, reached out to take her down.
"Stop! Sister Xiao Wu already surrendered!" Xiao Wu struggled and pleaded, afraid Ye Qiu would hit her again.
"If I want to keep hitting you, can you stop me?" Ye Qiu sneered, placing the lollipop he'd just been holding in front of Xiao Wu. "How about it? Do you want it or not?"
"Yes, I want it."
Xiao Wu's face turned red, and she nodded repeatedly, sticking out her small, fragrant tongue to shyly reach for the candy.
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes. It would have been easier if she'd just acted like this from the start. He pushed the candy forward.
"Ah-woo!"
Xiao Wu whimpered, caught off guard by Ye Qiu shoving it into her mouth.
The black Spider Silk began to dissolve, and Xiao Wu landed back on her feet. Habitually, she leaned into Ye Qiu, head lowered, obediently licking the candy. Without looking up, she mumbled, "Quick, ah~ quickly heal Sister Xiao Wu."
"Got it!"
