A few days later, Cheng Xiao was full of vigor again, and he could hardly wait to head to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and strip those immortal herbs bare.
Unfortunately, Dugu Bo and Ye Renxin seemed to have long forgotten about it and did not mention it at all, nearly driving Cheng Xiao to death with anxiety. Several times, Cheng Xiao subtly reminded them, but they merely waved him off and told him not to rush.
After waiting several more days, Cheng Xiao could no longer endure it. Gritting his teeth, he prepared to find Dugu Bo and question whether a dignified Titled Douluo intended to go back on his word.
However, just as he opened the door, the room next door opened as well, and Ye Lingling rushed out with delight written across her face.
But the moment she stepped outside, she ran straight into Cheng Xiao. Ye Lingling hurriedly stopped, hid her slender arms behind her back, stuck out her pink tongue, then walked over to Cheng Xiao with ladylike steps. "Oh, Cheng Xiao, you're going out too!"
"What's got you so happy?" Cheng Xiao rubbed Ye Lingling's head. He realized that after waking from his injuries, he seemed to have grown a little taller. He had previously been slightly shorter than Ye Lingling, but now he was taller than her.
Ye Lingling immediately took two steps back, wrinkled her delicate nose, and said irritably, "Don't touch my head! I won't grow taller that way! I'm older than you, so from now on, only I'm allowed to touch your head!"
Huh?
Why had she become so much more cheerful?
Ye Lingling had always seemed shy around everyone and rarely spoke. Even when he teased her, she would only blush and quietly hide behind Ye Renxin.
