The Ice Dragon King couldn't stand it any longer. "Brother! You're a man! How can you be so spineless?"
Go back to her! Let her know who's in charge!
"Kiss your sister..." Xuan Ming was too exhausted to refute.
Just as Xuan Ming was pondering how to resolve the current predicament, Qian Renxue suddenly leaned closer again, her eyes flashing with a dangerous light, "The taste is off."
"???" Xuan Ming.
What does it taste like?
"It tastes different from last time." Qian Renxue frowned.
What were you and her doing just now?
Xuan Ming's breath smelled strongly of fox!
Little bitch!
Qian Renxue suddenly stood up, her gaze sweeping across the room before finally settling on the bedroom. "Come out!"
"..."
Hu Liena's expression froze.
If they went outside, wouldn't a fight break out?
"Hmph!" Qian Renxue sneered, "Looks like I'll have to come and invite you!"
With that, Qian Renxue moved her feet and walked towards the bedroom.
Xuan Ming quickly stood up and instantly stepped in front of Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue looked at Xuan Ming, biting her lip, her eyes reddening, "What exactly are you doing?"
Xuan Ming took a deep breath. "I didn't do anything. You've misunderstood."
"Then why did you block my way?" Qian Renxue said through gritted teeth.
"If you haven't done anything, why are you afraid I'll see?"
Not long after the competition ended, Dugu Yan ran to find her, saying that Xuan Ming had been angered by them and she wanted to trouble her to take a look.
When she turned around, Hu Liena was gone!
After leaving the Great Soul Arena, she headed towards the nearest hotel, and as soon as she reached the entrance, she smelled a strong foxy odor!
Xuan Ming is still like this! What else could he be doing?!
"I really didn't do anything," Xuan Ming said helplessly.
She just kissed me, just like you did.
"Then why is she hiding inside?" Qian Renxue asked.
"Is she afraid to see people?"
Xuan Ming felt a headache coming on. "It's a bit complicated."
"Then explain," Qian Renxue said.
I have time to listen to your explanation.
Xuan Ming frowned slightly, pondering how to explain this matter.
Three girls were hiding in his bedroom, one of them unconscious... How the hell do you explain this?!
Seeing Xuan Ming like this, Qian Renxue felt a pang of pain in her heart. Gritting her teeth, she activated her Angel Domain, restrained Xuan Ming, and kicked open the bedroom door.
"..."
Looking at Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er, who were fast asleep on the bed, and Hu Liena, who was standing by, ready to fight, Qian Renxue's mind went blank.
Xuan Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Shui Bing'er had most likely been knocked unconscious by Hu Liena.
If Shui Bing'er saw Qian Renxue like this, the girl would surely be silenced today.
"What... what's going on?" Qian Renxue turned around and looked at Xuan Ming.
Xuan Ming took a deep breath and briefly explained the situation to Qian Renxue.
At first, Shui Bing'er came to him, and he taught her some things.
Before she left, Huo Wu came again. Shui Bing'er, afraid of being misunderstood, hid.
When Huo Wu entered, he taught her a few more things.
Just as Huo Wu was about to leave, Hu Liena arrived again.
Fearing that Hu Liena would misunderstand, he had Huo Wu hide.
Hu Liena entered, followed closely by Qian Renxue.
Hu Liena was afraid of Qian Renxue, so she hid.
Finally, this is how it is now.
Qian Renxue's expression became somewhat unnatural after hearing Xuan Ming's explanation. "Then why are you panicking?"
"You believe this nonsense?" Xuan Ming said speechlessly.
"I certainly wouldn't believe what others say, but what you say... I believe," Qian Renxue said.
"Even though you're a jerk, you wouldn't lie to me about these things."
"Besides, if you really did it, you bastard wouldn't deny it."
Xuan Ming would never deny what he had done. If she asked, he wouldn't lie; at most, he would just stay silent.
Ning Rongrong, who grew up hanging out with Xuan Ming, also has this temperament.
If I don't want to talk about it, I won't. I will never lie.
Chapter 254 They don't even try to hide it from people anymore.
After the explanation was made clear, Qian Renxue was quite accommodating and didn't cause any more trouble. She simply asked Hu Liena to leave first, and also took Shui Bing'er and Huo Wu with her.
"Is there anything else?" Xuan Ming asked.
"Didn't you want to rest?" Qian Renxue sat on the sofa and patted her thigh.
"Come and rest."
Xuan Ming sighed, "Your Highness, as the team leader, shouldn't you be watching the competition and gathering intelligence for everyone?"
"With so many teachers at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, they will naturally compile and send over the information on each academy's teams. I don't need to worry about it," Qian Renxue said.
"Or are you trying to get rid of me?"
"Then do as you please, I'm tired." Xuan Ming didn't say anything more, turned around and went back to his bedroom to rest.
Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, then got up and followed her in.
Xuan Ming collapsed onto the bed. Qian Renxue, seeing him like this, didn't say anything, gently lay down on the bed, and hugged him from behind.
"Don't be nervous, I won't do anything inappropriate to you," Qian Renxue said softly.
Xuan Ming hesitated, then gave up on saying anything.
Xuan Ming closed his eyes, trying to relax, but Qian Renxue's soft breathing was right next to his ear, and her hand around his waist made it impossible for him to calm down.
"How am I supposed to sleep if you're like this?" Xuan Ming said helplessly.
"You can sleep in the Pope's palace, why can't you sleep now?" Qian Renxue hugged her even tighter.
"Or are you afraid I'll do something secretly?"
Xuan Ming was speechless for a moment.
Seeing this, the Ice Dragon King knew it was time for her to make her move.
"Don't hug him from behind, he won't feel safe. Hug him from the front." The Ice Dragon King's voice suddenly rang in Qian Renxue's mind.
Hearing the familiar voice, Qian Renxue was slightly taken aback, recalling the special person in the Crown Prince's residence half a year ago. She wanted to ask for clarification, but considering that the other party probably wouldn't tell her, she gave up.
How do I hug you?
"Hold him the way an adult holds a child," the Ice Dragon King said.
Qian Renxue's expression was somewhat unnatural. "A child?"
"Have you forgotten that he's still a child?" the Ice Dragon King said strangely.
Although Xuan Ming appears overly mature in many things, he is still a child at heart, a very insecure child.
He wasn't used to having someone behind him. Normally, the two dragons on his back would always be watching what was happening behind him, but this position was really inconvenient.
Qian Renxue hesitated for a moment, then gently moved her body, going around from behind Xuan Ming to the front, and hugged him in her arms like a child. Her movements were a little clumsy but also a little cautious.
Xuan Ming's body stiffened slightly. He looked up, about to say something, when the Ice Dragon King gave Qian Renxue another instruction, "Hold his head."
Qian Renxue's cheeks flushed slightly, but she still did as she was told, reaching out her hands to gently pull Xuan Ming's head into her arms, resting her chin lightly on the top of his head, and gently stroking his hair, just like coaxing a child.
Xuan Ming's feelings were complicated. He wanted to push Qian Renxue, but the Ice Dragon King reappeared, saying, "Just let her hug you. There aren't many opportunities like this anyway."
"Her future hatred is a matter for the future; at least for now, make her happy."
Even if you become enemies tomorrow, that's a matter for tomorrow. Today, you're still friends.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Ming gradually relaxed, his breathing became steady, and he let Qian Renxue hold him.
As Qian Renxue felt Xuan Ming's breathing gradually become steady in her arms, a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on her lips. She gently closed her eyes and hugged him even tighter.
"Quiet down, I'm suffocating."
"..."
Night fell like a giant, deep blue ribbon, slowly enveloping the entire city. Brilliant lights twinkled along the streets, like jewels set in the ribbon.
Dugu Yan and her group finally returned to the hotel, each carrying a large lunchbox.
"His Highness the Crown Prince has been trying to persuade him for so long, he should have calmed down by now, right?" Dugu Yan was still a little worried.
Although the relationship between Xuan Ming and Xue Qinghe is strange, Xue Qinghe is indeed the only one who can calm Xuanming down when he is Xuan Ming. Of course, when Xuan Ming is calm, Xue Qinghe is also the person who is most likely to agitate him.
"He's not angry," Gu Yuena said softly.
"You weren't angry?" Ning Rongrong turned around. "But he just left."
"He's tired," Gu Yuena said.
"You guys were arguing a bit back then, and he... was probably annoyed."
Ning Rongrong's expression froze, Dugu Yan and the others also looked somewhat unnatural, as if that were the case.
Upon arriving at Xuan Ming's room, Xiao Wu, who was walking in front, knocked on the door. When there was no response, she simply took out her key and opened the door.
"You have a key to his room?" Dugu Yan's eyes twitched slightly.
"Yes, His Highness the Crown Prince gave it to me," Xiao Wu said.
" Lingling has it too."
Dugu Yan was taken aback and looked at Ye Lingling, "Why won't he give it to us?"
"You guys?" Ye Lingling looked puzzled.
"What would happen if you had the key?"
Dugu Yan pouted slightly, feeling a little guilty, but didn't say anything more, and followed the others into the room.
The room was completely dark; there wasn't a single light.
Ning Rongrong turned on the room lights. "Haven't they come back yet?"
At this moment, a slightly hurried sound came from the bedroom. Under everyone's tense gaze, the bedroom door slowly opened, and Xuan Ming and Xue Qinghe, who looked like they had just woken up, walked out.
His hair was disheveled, and his clothes were in disarray.
Especially noticing Xue Qinghe's inexplicably shy and evasive gaze, everyone instantly imagined a whole drama unfolding in their minds!
"You guys..." Ning Rongrong's eyes widened, her temper flaring.
