"Actually... Xiao Wu and I only plan to spend the coming period participating in matches at the local Soul Arena to hone our skills," Tang Yin explained after a moment of thought.
As for his future plans, he felt there was no need to share them with Ning Rongrong just yet.
Ning Rongrong nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly smiled. "If you don't mind, why not include me? We could participate in the two-on-two soul fighting matches together. Although I am only a Soul Grand Master, I can still provide you with some assistance."
Tang Yin considered this and smiled. "In that case, you can take turns teaming up with Xiao Wu and me for the two-on-two matches. That way, you'll be able to compete twice a day."
Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up. "That would be great!"
Tang Yin pondered, "We'll head to the Soul Arena in a couple of days to have some fun. I shouldn't keep bothering you here; it wouldn't be appropriate. I'll head back now."
"It's fine, stay a little longer," Ning Rongrong urged.
"Xiao Wu is waiting for me to return," Tang Yin said with an awkward smile, declining the invitation.
Just sitting around drinking tea was rather dull.
"Then I'll see you out."
Ning Rongrong bit her lower lip, looking pitiful, and walked Tang Yin to the door.
"Tang Yin, actually... I'm quite scared staying here alone. There's no one to talk to; it's very lonely."
"Could you let me come stay with you guys?"
Ning Rongrong blinked her beautiful eyes at Tang Yin, looking earnest.
"Well, that's possible..."
Tang Yin agreed after a moment of contemplation.
"That's wonderful!"
"Thank you!"
Ning Rongrong suddenly leaned in, stood on her tiptoes, and planted a light kiss on Tang Yin's cheek.
She then blushed and quickly ran toward Rose Heaven, abandoning her own room entirely.
Tang Yin raised a hand to touch the spot where Ning Rongrong had kissed him, staring blankly at her retreating figure. She's way too forward, isn't she? he thought.
Glancing back at the empty room, Tang Yin scratched his head. "Doesn't that mean I wasted my money?"
After thinking it over, he decided not to check out.
Even though Ning Rongrong was moving to Rose Heaven to stay with them, if he and Xiao Wu wanted some intimacy later, they couldn't exactly do it in front of her.
He still needed a private space.
Tang Yin took the key to the empty room, locked the door, and turned to head downstairs.
He needed a delicious meal to replenish his energy.
After arranging everything, he finally returned to his room.
As soon as he stepped inside, he saw Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu already chatting on the sofa.
Fortunately, the mess he and Xiao Wu had made earlier had already been cleaned up.
Otherwise...
The mere thought of such a scene made Tang Yin feel awkward.
"Tang Yin!"
Xiao Wu waved, her eyes filled with love as they locked onto him.
"What are you two chatting about? You seem happy!" Tang Yin pulled up a chair and sat down across from the two women.
"Tang Yin, Rongrong wants to join us for the two-on-two soul fighting matches. What do you think?" Xiao Wu reached out, pulled Tang Yin from his chair to her side, and plopped down into his lap, her eyes filled with attachment.
Seeing this, Ning Rongrong's gaze flickered, a hint of deep envy flashing in her eyes.
Tang Yin wrapped his arms around the girl in his lap and looked at Ning Rongrong with a smile. "In two days, we'll go to the Soul Arena to register a new identity, and then we'll fight and earn a fortune from the arena!"
At the mention of money, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up like a little miser. "Last time, thanks to Rongrong, we earned two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coin in one go!"
"I only provided the funds; it was Tang Yin's strength that was truly impressive~" Ning Rongrong raised her slender hand to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, looking at Tang Yin with a gentle gaze.
Tang Yin felt a tremor in his heart under Ning Rongrong's look. She's way too good at this! he thought. She dares to act like this while Xiao Wu is here; what would she be like if Xiao Wu weren't around?
Tang Yin couldn't help but think of the kiss on his cheek outside, and his throat tightened.
Xiao Wu sensed a slight change in Tang Yin, blinked, and felt her cheeks flush. Why is Tang Yin acting so strange again~ she wondered.
A moment later.
The feast Tang Yin had ordered from the hotel was brought into the room.
"It smells so good!"
Xiao Wu walked up to the table, sniffing the fragrant aroma of the food.
"Tang Yin, you've worked hard."
"Eat more."
Xiao Wu pulled Tang Yin down to sit, personally picking up food to feed him, her face full of smiles.
Ning Rongrong's thoughts stirred.
She began picking up food for Tang Yin as well, but did not forget to pick some for Xiao Wu at the same time.
For a moment.
Xiao Wu didn't feel anything was amiss; instead, she said with concern, "Rongrong, don't just focus on picking food for us, eat something yourself!"
"Okay~" Ning Rongrong smiled slightly, her gentle gaze quietly sweeping over Tang Yin's face as her jade foot lifted under the table, her high heel lightly grazing Tang Yin's calf.
Tang Yin felt uncomfortable all over, yet he couldn't just kick Ning Rongrong away.
At this moment.
Ning Rongrong's gaze shifted downward, and noticing Tang Yin's reaction, her pretty face instantly flushed red.
Small movements were constant, but there were no major actions.
A full half-hour passed before Tang Yin was finally eighty percent full.
"Xiao Wu, now that we're full, shall we go out for a stroll?"
"It'll help us digest."
Ning Rongrong suggested with a smile.
"Sounds great!"
Xiao Wu's eyes lit up.
When it came to shopping, she loved it immensely.
While Tang Yin would always accompany her, having another girl along meant they could chat about topics only girls understood.
"Tang Yin, then I'll have to trouble you to carry the bags for Xiao Wu and me, okay?" Ning Rongrong laughed.
"Carry the bags? Is that really necessary?" Tang Yin was stunned. "Xiao Wu has a Soul Tool for storage on her, and you should have one too, right?"
Ning Rongrong waved her hand with a smile. "That's not how you look at it. If everything is just shoved into a Soul Tool, half the fun of shopping disappears."
"That makes sense! It makes so much sense!" Xiao Wu clapped in approval, completely agreeing with Ning Rongrong.
Tang Yin couldn't understand, but he respected it.
After the three of them left, the waiter entered the room to clean up, replace items, and restore everything to its original state.
By evening.
Tang Yin was carrying bags upon bags.
He had ultimately underestimated the shopping desires of Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong.
He didn't understand.
Ning Rongrong lacked for nothing at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, so why did she need to buy so much stuff? Even Xiao Wu's Soul Tool was completely filled.
However, what comforted him was that there were some things in there for him as well.
Unknowingly, the three arrived at the Soto Great Soul Arena.
The three arrived at the Soto Great Soul Arena, where Tang Yin and Xiao Wu each registered for a new Soul Fighting Badge and chose new nicknames, while Ning Rongrong registered as well.
Tang Yin and Xiao Wu each teamed up with Ning Rongrong to participate in the duo matches.
"Tang Yin, this is my first time participating, why don't you take me to get used to it first?" Ning Rongrong suggested, her head slightly lowered and her face full of shyness.
