Waking up groggily, Yu Tianshuang rubbed his eyes and vaguely felt his head resting on a soft, white blanket. His handsome face flushed slightly as he realized he was lying on Ye Lingling's lap. He looked up, but couldn't see Ye Lingling's face; he could only hear her even breathing.

Feeling the movement on her thigh, Ye Lingling's soft voice came. "Tianshuang, you're awake. You've really been working too hard lately. Don't do this starting tomorrow. You need to balance work and rest."

After propping himself up with his hands, the gentle, angry look on his face vanished instantly, and he couldn't help but feel a little reluctant to leave. But seeing that Ye Lingling's fair thighs were red from being pressed down by him, he quickly coughed a few times to cover it up and said, "Well, Lingling, you're right. Um, I'll take you home."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked ahead, but after a while he realized that Ye Lingling was not following behind, so he turned around curiously to look.

Ye Lingling blushed and said somewhat awkwardly, "Tianshuang, my legs are numb, I can't move..."

Yu Tianshuang was also a little embarrassed, after all, it was her own fault, so she could only pretend to be calm and walk over to squat down, saying, "Come on up."

Feeling the pressure coming from behind and hearing the sweet breath in her ear, Yu Tianshuang's heart started pounding wildly. A thought suddenly popped into her mind: the area of pressure she was under was almost the same as Zhu Zhuqing's back then.

He quickly banished the romantic thoughts from his mind and silently carried Ye Lingling towards the dormitory.

Ye Lingling's cheeks were also flushed, especially after a while when the intense heat coming from the front made her feel like her head was burning up.

As they approached the dormitory entrance, Ye Lingling mustered her courage and said, "Tianshuang, no one's in my dorm. Senior Hairou and Xue Wu share a dorm. I... I'm scared to be alone..."

After saying this, Ye Lingling's pretty face turned as red as an apple, like a kettle boiling over. Yu Tianshuang stopped and tentatively said, "Then, let's go to my dormitory. My dormitory is a detached faculty dormitory. With me here, you, you definitely won't be afraid..."

"Um..."

A faint buzzing sound reached her ears, and Yu Tianshuang felt a mixture of anticipation and trepidation as she carried Ye Lingling toward her dormitory.

"Lingling, you can sleep in my bed. I'll... I'll stay on the sofa in the living room. If you're scared, just call me."

"Good."

After saying that, her face flushed red, she quickly closed the bedroom door. Lying on Yu Tianshuang's bed, Ye Lingling covered her burning red face with her hands and muttered to herself, "Ahhh, Ye Lingling, how could you be so bold? If, if..."

As I thought about it, I felt a mix of fear, trepidation, shyness, and a Sisi of anticipation.

However, Yu Tianshuang, who had barely slept or rested for a week, suddenly relaxed and fell asleep on the sofa.

Lying on her bed in the bedroom, seemingly lost in thought, Ye Lingling's mood calmed down after a while. The quiet room was filled with the even breathing of Yu Tianshuang from the living room. Ye Lingling felt a pang of disappointment mixed with heartache. She grabbed a blanket from the bedroom, went outside, and covered the boy who stirred her heart. After quietly gazing at Yu Tianshuang, who seemed so different in his sleep, Ye Lingling lowered her head and planted a kiss on his forehead, blushing as she said, "Goodnight."

The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight streamed through the living room window and fell upon Yu Tianshuang's face, a brand new day began. Opening her still-sleepy eyes, she waved her hand to shield her eyes from the not-too-bright sunlight and Yu Tianshuang up. Still a little dazed from waking up, she stretched and then realized she was lying on the living room sofa. Recalling the erotic scenes of the previous day, and Ye Lingling in her bedroom now, she couldn't help but sigh with regret.

The bedroom door creaked open, and turning around, one could see that Ye Lingling, just awakened, possessed a unique beauty, though her fair face seemed to have some dark circles under her eyes, clearly indicating that she hadn't slept well the night before.

Good morning!

"Uh, good morning!"

After exchanging greetings, an awkward silence fell over the two until Yu Tianshuang, who had been silent, looked at herself and exclaimed with delight, "Lingling, I've broken through to level 40!"

"Really? That's great! We still have plenty of time before heading to Spirit City, enough to hunt for Soul Ring."

After breaking the somewhat awkward and ambiguous atmosphere, the two returned to normal, smiled at each other, and naturally walked together towards the cafeteria. On the way, they ran into Xue Wu and Yu Hairou, and inevitably received strange looks and teasing from the two. However, when they learned that Yu Tianshuang had broken through to level 40, they were very happy.

"Alright, I really didn't expect this, Tianshuang. Although your talent is amazing, breaking through the level 39 to 40 barrier in just one week shows how hard you've worked. However, I still want to say, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Alright, let's not delay any longer and set off immediately. We can replenish our supplies when we pass through Heaven Dou Imperial City."

Since the women were injured, Shui Xinrou noticed that her disciple had become even more aloof. He would cultivate in the Mimicry Training Ground until very late every day, and sometimes she would see him dragging his exhausted body to breakfast in the morning, not having returned home all night. This matter put too much pressure on him, and as his teacher, she really didn't know how to advise him. She saw it and felt sorry for him. Fortunately, Ye Lingling and Yu Hairou recovered from their injuries yesterday, so she told the two women about the situation. Ye Lingling returned that day, and it seemed to have worked well. Yu Tianshuang in front of her had a completely new feeling.

In the Ice Seal Town of the Heaven Dou Empire, night had just fallen. After getting off the carriage, Shui Xinrou and he walked into the somewhat familiar town, and inevitably stopped in front of that conspicuous notice board again.

However, after experiencing so much, especially after learning about the delicate balance between the two great empires and the Spirit Hall, when Yu Tianshuang looked at the notice board again, her gaze was no longer complicated. She simply glanced at it and followed Shui Xinrou ahead.

It was the same familiar hotel, even the room felt strangely familiar. Pushing open the door Yu Tianshuang saw the almost unchanged furnishings, and her thoughts drifted back to that night, to the beautiful girl with long, flowing blue hair, and the warm touch on her face from the Frozen Forest. But then she thought of her lying pale in a hospital bed, and a hint of red quietly resurfaced in Yu Tianshuang's eyes.

"Tang San, Shrek, I will make you pay the price."
