Sis, I'll Support You from Now On

Long Haochen opened the door and saw Li Xin standing prettily outside. She had already taken off the soft armor she wore for training and changed into a fitted white outfit that perfectly displayed her curvaceous figure.

Li Xin had clearly just finished bathing. Her cloud-like pink hair hung wetly over her shoulders, making her skin, white as jade, seem even more delicate.

Li Xin gave off the fresh fragrance of a bath, mixed with her own distinctive rose scent. The two aromas blended together, leaving Long Haochen utterly intoxicated.

Seeing Long Haochen standing dumbly in the doorway, Li Xin covered her mouth and giggled. Naturally, she knew what he was looking at, and she rather enjoyed the way he gazed at her so entrancedly. It proved just how strongly she attracted him.

"All right, silly little brother, stop staring. Come with me. Uncle Nalan asked me to take you for a spiritual energy test, then your sister will treat you to a big meal."

"Oh." Long Haochen answered blankly.

Li Xin burst into laughter, tidied up her long hair, and tied it back into a ponytail with a blue ribbon. Then she took Long Haochen's hand and returned to the main hall, heading directly to the third floor.

Nalan Shu had long been waiting there. Seeing Li Xin and Long Haochen with their fingers intertwined, he was somewhat surprised, but he did not say anything.

The man was unmarried and the woman unwed. Although Long Haochen was a little young, Nalan Shu naturally would not stop them as long as Li Xin liked him.

"Haochen, are you getting used to living here?"

Long Haochen first bowed before replying, "Thank you, Uncle Nalan. I'm living very well."

Nalan Shu nodded in satisfaction. Li Xin truly has good taste. Although Long Haochen's talent is outstanding and his background powerful, he doesn't have the slightest trace of arrogance.

"Only by reaching Third-Rank Knight can one become a true member of our Hao Yue Sub-Temple, and thus an official member of the Knight Temple. Although you have already completed Sacred Awakening, proving that you possess a Knight's strength, since you intend to join our Hao Yue Sub-Temple, Uncle Nalan still has to follow procedure and test your current spiritual energy for registration."

Long Haochen nodded. "Uncle Nalan, I understand. Please begin."

Nalan Shu activated the spiritual energy testing device used during the previous Squire examination. It was still that black stone pillar.

Long Haochen drew the heavy Knight sword from his back, stepped forward, and infused his inner spiritual energy into the heavy sword in his right hand. Then he swung it down in a lightning-fast slash. With a dull bang, gentle blue halos immediately rose across the walls surrounding the hall. At that moment, both Nalan Shu and Li Xin stared unblinkingly at the top of the black stone pillar.

"Four hundred and forty-three!"

Nalan Shu and Li Xin cried out at the same time, then both sucked in a sharp breath.

"Haochen, are you really human? An Eighth-Level Knight at twelve years old! Are you trying to ascend to heaven?"

When Li Xin and Long Haochen first met two years ago, Li Xin's spiritual energy had still been ninety-five points higher than Long Haochen's. Yet in only two years, Long Haochen had actually surpassed her. Li Xin was currently only a Seventh-level Knight!

"A genius, an absolute genius!" Nalan Shu muttered to himself.

Li Xin winked at Long Haochen, then threw an arm around his shoulders. "Such a genius—good thing I claimed you first, or someone else would have snatched you away."

Long Haochen had not expected Li Xin to be so bold, showing no concern at all that Nalan Shu was present. His face immediately reddened, and he recalled how, after their spar two years ago, Li Xin had nearly smothered him to death.

Li Xin released Long Haochen. "All right, the test is done. Let's go eat."

With that, Li Xin dragged Long Haochen out at a run, completely ignoring Nalan Shu, who had been force-fed a display of affection by the two of them.

"Young people these days... they really are far too open-minded!"

Nalan Shu shook his head and took out a small notebook to record Long Haochen's spiritual energy test results.

After leaving the Hao Yue Sub-Temple, Li Xin took Long Haochen to the largest restaurant nearby. This was where the two of them had often "dated" before.

The moment they entered, a waiter immediately came forward and led them to a private room on the second floor.

Li Xin and Long Haochen sat close together, then took the menu from the waiter.

"This, this, this, and this..." Li Xin tapped the menu six or seven times in succession.

Long Haochen thought to himself, Li Xin only ordered six or seven small dishes. She really is a thrifty, domestic-minded girl.

But Li Xin's next words immediately overturned his impression.

"Mm, don't want these seven dishes. Bring one serving of everything else."

Long Haochen's mouth twitched several times. That page of the menu had more than thirty dishes!

"Sis, isn't that a little too much...?"

Li Xin closed the menu in satisfaction and argued, "How could it be too much? You're still growing, so you need to eat more."

Long Haochen rubbed his forehead. This was not his first day knowing Li Xin. Her appetite had always been enormous. She had probably ordered so many dishes not for him, but for herself.

Half an hour later, more than twenty dishes filled the entire table, and Li Xin had already swept away over half of them.

This was the first time Li Xin had revealed her true combat strength before Long Haochen. Her appetite truly frightened him.

"Sis, slow down. I'm not fighting you for it."

"Mmph, mmph... You eat too!"

With that, Li Xin finished off another rabbit leg.

After the time it took to burn an incense stick, the battlefield was a complete mess. Li Xin had slaughtered her way through everything, invincible in every battle.

Li Xin rubbed her round belly, looking thoroughly satisfied.

"Haochen, you're full, right?"

"I'm full, I'm full."

How could Long Haochen dare say he was not full? Otherwise, Li Xin would order more dishes.

"It's all because of you. You made me so happy today that I ate a little extra. If I turn into a chubby girl someday, you're not allowed to dislike me."

Long Haochen was speechless. So you know eating like this will turn you into a chubby girl!

"Sis, I'll support you from now on. Eat as much as you like."

Upon hearing that, Li Xin was inexplicably moved. This was the happiest day she had experienced in all her life.

Li Xin and Long Haochen went down to the first floor and approached the counter to pay.

"Hello, the total is 120 gold coins," the waiter said with a smile.

"Sis, let me pay."

When going out to eat with his girlfriend, how could he let her pay the bill? Besides, Long Haochen was not poor.

Long Haochen was about to pay when Li Xin stopped him.

"We agreed that I'd treat this time. You can pay next time we eat."

Just after Li Xin finished paying, a somewhat chilly voice laced with mockery sounded behind them.

"Isn't this our big-eater Hell Rose? This time, you actually brought a pretty boy out to eat!"
