A Wife Won with a Quilt

Xiao Wu's agile movements and Hu Jiu's wide, powerful swings made their duel an enthralling spectacle.

Xiao Wu in particular was practically dancing on the tip of a blade. Every step was perilous—and deadly.

Fortunately, Hu Jiu was no pushover either. The Five Senses Strengthening Technique greatly enhanced his five senses. Used in battle, it made him feel as if he had divine aid. Through air currents, scents, sounds, and other minute details that ordinary people could hardly detect, he saw every move Xiao Wu made.

It could be said that as long as he was willing, Xiao Wu had no chance of beating him.

"Hehe, you're amazing! Be careful, I'm going to get serious!" Seeing that her ordinary attacks could do nothing to Hu Jiu, Xiao Wu's fighting spirit grew even stronger.

She shifted her footing and quickly opened up some distance from Hu Jiu. Her aura surged, and a pair of adorable rabbit ears sprouted from her head. Behind her pink short skirt, a fluffy mass emerged.

Unfortunately, Xiao Wu was facing away from everyone at that moment. If Hu Jiu's senses hadn't been astonishingly sharp, he really wouldn't have noticed that Xiao Wu actually had a tail when she activated her Spirit Avatar!

Wasn't a real transformation in role-playing much better to look at?

Of course it was!

This world was practically a blessing for men!

At that moment, he nearly forgot that he was in the middle of a fight. By the time Xiao Wu finished transforming, it was already too late for him to use the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.

"Wait!" Seeing Xiao Wu charge toward him at incredible speed, Hu Jiu hurriedly called for a halt.

He didn't want to get beaten up for no reason.

"What is it? Don't tell me you want to surrender?" Xiao Wu stopped her attack and stared at Hu Jiu with wide eyes. She hadn't had enough fun yet!

"Haha, come on, don't be angry. Have a Carrot." Hu Jiu smiled and used the power of his Spirit Avatar. A Carrot appeared in his hand.

As his Soul Power increased, Hu Jiu's Carrots had undergone tremendous changes. They had not only grown larger, but also looked crystal clear, almost like works of art.

Only after handing the Carrot to Xiao Wu did Hu Jiu helplessly spread his hands. "You can see it yourself. My Spirit Avatar is a Carrot, while your Spirit Avatar is a Rabbit. Do you really think I have the ability to beat you?"

"Hehe! So your Spirit Avatar is a Carrot!"

"That's wonderful! I love eating Carrots the most."

The moment she saw the Carrot, Xiao Wu forgot all about fighting. She accepted the Carrot from Hu Jiu and happily began eating it.

"Delicious, delicious! It tastes much better than the ones I dig out of the ground." As she ate, Xiao Wu continued praising it.

Hu Jiu, who had summoned his Spirit Avatar, suddenly paused. Vaguely, he sensed that his Spirit Avatar was conveying something to him, but the sensation was simply too faint. He couldn't make out any specific information.

Could it be...

Just as the two were chatting animatedly, Wang Sheng rudely interrupted them.

"Hu Jiu, does this count as you losing?"

"I lost, of course! What's strange about a Support Type Spirit Avatar losing? It would be strange if I won, right?" Hu Jiu replied irritably.

If not for wanting to show off in front of Xiao Wu, who in their right mind would enjoy fighting?

There was no benefit to it. With the AFK Panel, why work so hard? Did he even care whether the others lived or died?

"Hehe, looks like I'm the dormitory's leader from now on. From now on, you can call me Sister Xiao Wu!"

Xiao Wu happily gnawed on the Carrot, shaking her head and swaying her body smugly. The Scorpion Braid behind her swung from side to side, making her incredibly adorable.

"Yes, Sister Xiao Wu!" Having such an adorable leader made the boys in the Dormitory practically ecstatic. They shouted even louder than when they had called out to Hu Jiu.

"Delicious! I want more!" After finishing the Carrot in a few bites, Xiao Wu sweetly extended her little hand toward Hu Jiu, asking him for another.

"Hehe! Here you go!"

Seeing how much Xiao Wu liked his Carrots, Hu Jiu's heart filled with delight. He was one step closer to winning her over.

Meanwhile, Hu Jiu turned around and began pretending to make the bed. As he did so, he kept observing Xiao Wu's reaction.

Hu Jiu's efforts were not in vain. At last, Xiao Wu noticed the brand-new quilt and bedding in his hands.

"Hu Jiu, where did you get that bedding?" Seeing the style of Hu Jiu's bedding, she vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

"Ah, this? I brought it from home. I thought that, as a Work-Study Student studying here for free, my living conditions probably wouldn't be very good, so I brought a set of bedding myself." Hu Jiu explained calmly.

At a crucial moment, I absolutely can't lose my composure.

"Ah! You brought it yourself? The academy doesn't provide any?" Xiao Wu looked dazed. With a Carrot in her mouth, she mechanically gnawed at it, suddenly finding it less delicious.

"We're Work-Study Students. The academy is already being generous by providing us with a place to live. As for bedding, we all bring it from home." Wang Sheng explained from the side.

"Sister Xiao Wu, you can use mine! I'll squeeze in with my classmate."

"Sister Xiao Wu, use mine. My quilt is bigger."

In an instant, the entire Dormitory sprang into action. One after another, they carried their quilts over to Xiao Wu and tried to curry favor with her.

Unfortunately, Xiao Wu didn't like any of those filthy, black quilts. As a beautiful Little Fairy, how could she use a dirty quilt?

Her gaze ultimately landed on Hu Jiu's new quilt.

She stared at it.

She just stared at it intently.

Pitifully!

"Ah! Xiao Wu, don't look at me like that. I need to sleep too." Hu Jiu felt a little awkward. Although he had rehearsed this scene in his mind countless times, now that it was really about to happen, he still felt the urge to get a nosebleed.

In one word: temptation!

"Hu Jiu, let's discuss something, shall we?" Xiao Wu blinked her large eyes and said cutely.

"What?"

"Look, your quilt is so big that one person can't use all of it. How About we push the two beds together and share it?"

After secretly looking over Hu Jiu once more—his clothes were plain, but he was exceptionally clean—Xiao Wu made her suggestion.

"This... wouldn't be good, would it?" Although his heart was screaming for him to agree immediately, he deliberately put on a troubled expression.

Ding! Pretentious Guy title level increased by one.

"What's so bad about it? If I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? I won't eat you." Xiao Wu's little face was flushed pink. She was probably embarrassed herself at that moment.

"But you ate my Spirit Avatar just now!" Hu Jiu looked at Xiao Wu suspiciously.

Pretend. Keep pretending. I have to pretend my way into a happy future.

"Uh!" Xiao Wu silently looked at the Carrot in her hand, of which she had already eaten more than half, and directly ignored it. With an air of authority, she waved her hand. "Then it's settled. You guys, hurry up and push this bed over for me."

After a few quick movements, the two beds were pushed together.

"Hu Jiu, put your bundle in the middle as a boundary. If you dare cross the line, just see how I deal with you." Xiao Wu waved her hand fiercely in warning.

"Okay." After his progress in winning over Xiao Wu increased by another step, Hu Jiu was completely satisfied.

There was still plenty of time. Xiao Wu was only six years old now. He would raise his future wife from childhood and shape her into the kind of person he liked.

Perfect!

"Xiao Jiu!"

Just as Hu Jiu and Xiao Wu were making the bed together, Tang San's voice came from outside the door.

"Oh! Little San, you're here!"

Sorry, you came too late.
