Xiao Wu's Confession!

"Xiao Wu, you should go take a bath first."

"I'll wash up in a little while."

Tang Yin took the Eight Spider Lances out of his storage Soul Tool and placed the Soul Tool back onto Xiao Wu's hand.

"Tang Yin..."

Xiao Wu pressed her pink lips tightly together, gazing at Tang Yin with soft eyes, words hovering on the tip of her tongue.

"Xiao Wu, what's wrong?"

Tang Yin placed his large hand gently on Xiao Wu's shoulder and asked in a soft voice.

Xiao Wu pondered for a long time before finally making up her mind: "Why did you specifically tell me earlier that there are three Soul Douluo at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"

Tang Yin did not answer.

He simply cupped Xiao Wu's cheeks, quietly meeting her gaze with his own.

Moonlight spilled over the window of Rose Heaven, stretching their silhouettes into a gentle, lingering embrace.

Xiao Wu lowered her head slightly, her hands clenched so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

Usually so lively and bouncy, she was now trembling with a cautious, fragile breath.

"Tang Yin... I... I need to confess something to you."

Xiao Wu looked up, her clear pink eyes shimmering with moisture, reflecting both anxiety and a desperate, burning resolve.

"I am not a normal human Spirit Master; I am a 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit who has transformed into human form."

The moment the words fell.

Xiao Wu closed her eyes, not daring to look at Tang Yin's expression.

She feared seeing disgust, feared seeing fear, and feared even more seeing Tang Yin turn and walk away.

The secret she had guarded for so long...

She had gambled all her trust, yet she was terrified of losing everything.

But the distance she expected never came.

A warm embrace gently enveloped her body, and that familiar sensation returned.

Tang Yin pulled Xiao Wu's delicate frame closer, his gaze gentle. There was not a hint of surprise in his eyes, only an overwhelming sense of doting and heartache for her.

Xiao Wu snapped her eyes open.

Tang Yin slowly released her, meeting her gaze tenderly, his voice soft and calm: "I know."

Those two words were like a warm current, instantly piercing through all of Xiao Wu's defenses.

Xiao Wu's tears rolled down without warning, her voice choked with sobs: "You... you knew all along? When did you find out? Why... why didn't you expose me?"

Tang Yin gently wiped the tears from the corners of Xiao Wu's eyes, his tone gentle and firm: "I didn't expose you because I knew you were afraid. I wanted to wait for you to tell me yourself, to wait until you were truly willing to trust me."

Xiao Wu froze, her tears falling even harder, not out of sadness, but out of being deeply moved.

"Since you knew everything, then why did you... why did you agree to be with me..."

"Aren't you... aren't you bothered by it?"

"Besides, I'm a transformed Spirit Beast, not a human... What if someone finds out? What if I bring danger to you..."

"I only know that you are my girlfriend, the girl I have decided to protect. That is all." Tang Yin chuckled softly and reached out to pull Xiao Wu tightly into his arms.

Xiao Wu could no longer hold back and burst into tears, wrapping her arms tightly around Tang Yin's waist and burying her face deep into his chest: "Tang Yin, why are you so good to me!"

She had carried this secret alone for so long, hiding such deep-seated anxiety...

At this moment, it was finally all laid to rest.

Tang Yin gently patted Xiao Wu's back, his heart surging with profound emotion.

Finally...

Xiao Wu was finally willing to be honest with him.

"Don't cry, don't cry, you'll become ugly if you keep crying." Tang Yin lowered his head and kissed the top of Xiao Wu's hair.

The moonlight was gentle, and the evening breeze drifted softly.

The two held each other tightly, as if trying to merge into one another's lives.

All the concealment, anxiety, and hesitation vanished into thin air at this moment.

Mother, I have found the person you spoke of, Xiao Wu said in her heart.

Next door.

Ning Rongrong was lost in a sweet dream, hugging her pillow and drooling.

"Tang Yin, don't be like that..."

The next day, the sun was already high in the sky.

Ning Rongrong sat up lazily, scratching her slightly messy hair.

Upon seeing her current surroundings, she realized that everything from last night had just been a dream: "What a pity..."

She then got out of bed to bathe and get dressed.

Before long.

Ning Rongrong left her room and arrived outside the door of the Rose Heaven suite.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Tang Yin, Xiao Wu, are you awake?"

Inside the room.

Tang Yin and Xiao Wu were locked in a tight embrace, as if trying to merge into one another.

"Who is calling us from outside..." Xiao Wu muttered softly.

Tang Yin slowly opened his eyes as the knocking and faint calling reached his ears again: "It seems to be Rongrong. I'll go check; you rest a while longer."

Xiao Wu opened her eyes a crack and nodded slightly: "Go and come back quickly."

Tang Yin kissed Xiao Wu on the forehead, slowly pulled away, and got up to put on his clothes.

Xiao Wu felt a sense of emptiness wash over her, and her face instantly turned bright red.

"Click!"

Tang Yin appeared before Ning Rongrong wearing only his pajamas.

"Tang Yin!"

Ning Rongrong was about to say something, but noticing Tang Yin was still in his pajamas, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "You and Xiao Wu are still sleeping?"

Tang Yin scratched his head awkwardly: "We've been busy for a few days, and Xiao Wu is a bit tired."

Ning Rongrong nodded: "In that case, I'll go tell the waiter to bring breakfast to your room."

Tang Yin thought for a moment and smiled: "Thank you. Xiao Wu and I won't be heading out for a while yet; you can wait for us in your room for a bit."

Ning Rongrong pointed behind Tang Yin and asked: "Can't I go inside and wait for you?"

"This... maybe not?" Tang Yin gave an awkward smile, looking troubled.

Ning Rongrong felt a slight sense of disappointment: "Then... I won't disturb your rest. I'll head back to my room."

"Alright, we'll come find you in a little while," Tang Yin smiled.

Ning Rongrong nodded lightly and turned to leave.

Tang Yin let out a long sigh of relief, then closed the door tightly and returned to Xiao Wu's side.

Xiao Wu snuggled back into Tang Yin's arms, enjoying the beauty of the moment.

Tang Yin's heart couldn't help but race.

He lowered his head slightly and gently kissed Xiao Wu's soft, pink lips.

Xiao Wu responded just as softly.

The two of them lingered in the moment.

By noon.

Tang Yin left the room alone; as for Xiao Wu, she didn't even want to get out of bed.

She even ate her breakfast in bed.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Rongrong, it's me, Tang Yin!"

Tang Yin called out.

"Click!"

Three seconds later, Ning Rongrong opened the door with a smile: "Oh? Where is Xiao Wu?"

Tang Yin gave an awkward smile: "Xiao Wu has a habit of sleeping in. Since there's nothing pressing to do, I'll let her rest a bit longer."

"Hmm... don't stand at the door, come in and talk." Ning Rongrong pulled Tang Yin into the room.

"Tang Yin, do you have any plans for what's next? Can you tell me? After all, I am your and Xiao Wu's companion now, aren't I?"

Ning Rongrong brought a cup of tea, set it before Tang Yin, and then sat gracefully by his side.

Her posture was dignified and elegant, her temperament fully on display.

Her smile, as gentle as a spring breeze, was particularly refreshing.

"That's true."

Tang Yin felt the same way.
