Evening.

"I'm hungry."

"Rumble rumble rumble—" A loud rumbling ca from her stomach.

Ye Chuan, sitting at the dining table, looked towards the aloof girl sitting on a chair not far away.

He had prepared a sumptuous al as soon as he got ho, but when he called Bai Qianshuang to eat, she just sat there stiffly, not moving an inch.

Bai Qianshuang had changed back into her white robe, her long black hair cascading down. With an air like an ink painting, she truly resembled a celestial being.

Well, she actually was a celestial being.

"Not hungry?" Ye Chuan asked.

"Not hungry," Bai Qianshuang replied expressionlessly, her beautiful eyes showing no emotion.

She sat quietly, unwilling to say another word.

Even though her stomach was protesting loudly.

If I hadn't seen the log where you were practically rolling around on the bed from hunger, I might have believed you…

Of course, Ye Chuan didn't say that out loud. Noticing Bai Qianshuang's cold attitude towards him, he asked curiously, "Did I offend you? Why are you suddenly so cold to ? Did Aunt Flo visit you?"

"My aunt has long since passed away."

(TL: Aunt is used for talking about periods, so when you are on your period you say: My aunt has co or my aunt is visiting today)

"Not that kind of aunt," Ye Chuan said.

"I only have one aunt." Bai Qianshuang's eyes kept glancing at the delicious food on the table. She swallowed involuntarily, then mumbled,

"You… you lecher, stealing my undergarnts in the middle of the night."

Huh?

Ye Chuan froze. Undergarnts?

"When did I do such a thing?" Ye Chuan was puzzled.

Last night he was struggling to breathe and almost suffocated, how could he have had ti to steal undergarnts?

Could it be that a thief broke in?

Bai Qianshuang saw that Ye Chuan's expression didn't seem fake. She frowned slightly, but still explained,

"This morning, you put the undergarnt and the robe together on the table."

Together with the robe…

Oh, that wasn't a belt, it was underwear?

Ye Chuan finally understood, and realized why Bai Qianshuang had been so cold to him since he got ho. She thought he was a pervert.

He couldn't be blad for this, right?

It was a reward from the system, and he initially thought it was just a belt, so he put it together with the robe. Even if he knew, he wouldn't have felt anything.

He'd rather have another Tiger Strength Pill.

Ye Chuan preferred practical things, especially those that could cure illnesses.

"I thought it was a belt, so I washed it with the robe," Ye Chuan said with a straight face, realizing the atmosphere was tense.

"I wasn't wearing it when I changed into that black dress," Bai Qianshuang said coldly, feeling that Ye Chuan was just making excuses.

"Are you sure?" Ye Chuan raised his voice. "You were so tired yesterday, and your mind was hazy, are you really that sure?"

Hearing Ye Chuan's words and seeing his expression, three parts anger and seven parts grievance, Bai Qianshuang began to hesitate. "I…"

But she clearly rembered…

"Slap!" Ye Chuan slamd his hand on the table. The loud noise interrupted Bai Qianshuang's thoughts.

He clutched his chest, feigning pain.

"Not only did I wash your clothes, but I also ca back from school and cooked for you, worried you'd be hungry, and you actually accuse of this?!"

"You fainted several tis. If I really wanted to do sothing, why would I steal an undergarnt? I would have just… you know! And even if I stole it, would I wash it and return it to you?"

His words left Bai Qianshuang speechless. Her eyes flickered, realizing that Ye Chuan's logic was flawless.

Who would steal sothing, wash it, and return it?

And she really didn't have the strength to resist Ye Chuan at the ti. Without spiritual power and injured, she was even weaker than an ordinary person.

Realizing that she had misunderstood Ye Chuan, Bai Qianshuang was imdiately filled with guilt. She quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Ye Chuan, I misunderstood you."

"Too late, you've already hurt my feelings," Ye Chuan said coldly, sitting back down.

He deliberately avoided Bai Qianshuang's gaze.

Silent treatnt, let her guess.

Seeing that Ye Chuan was ignoring her, Bai Qianshuang imdiately approached him and sat down beside him.

"Please give a chance to make it up to you."

The more she spoke, the more ashad she beca, her beautiful face lowering.

"Forget it, I won't hold it against you," Ye Chuan paused and waved his hand.

"So, give so ultimate cultivation technique, and I'll forgive you."

Hearing this, Bai Qianshuang looked troubled. "My storage pouch is lost, and I only have the Jade Void Sect's techniques, which are only suitable for won."

"Then do you have anything that can enhance one's strength, or cure illnesses?" Ye Chuan asked.

"Dual cultivation techniques," Bai Qianshuang said, as if sothing ca to mind.

"You know those?" Ye Chuan was a little surprised.

"I grew up and cultivated in the Jade Void Sect. I've never had a Dao companion." Bai Qianshuang shook her head.

Although many of her junior sisters had cultivation partners, she relied only on herself.

"Then you can't do that, how are you going to make it up to ?" Ye Chuan asked.

Bai Qianshuang was stumped by Ye Chuan's question. After a while, she whispered, "Ye Chuan, you can ask to do anything, as compensation."

"Oh? So you'd agree even if I wanted to touch you?"

Hearing this, Bai Qianshuang's body trembled instinctively. She clutched her robe and mumbled, "I was wrong, so… yes."

"Alright, then just promise you'll stay here," Ye Chuan smiled.

Bai Qianshuang closed her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering. "Please."

A second later, she was stunned, opening her beautiful eyes. "You're not going to touch ?"

"Did I say I wanted to? Are you that perverted?" Ye Chuan raised an eyebrow.

Bai Qianshuang's ears turned red, the blush spreading down her neck. She stamred, unable to speak. "I… I didn't an anything by it."

"Just promise this and don't run away," Ye Chuan said.

Of course, the daily 2000 yuan was much more appealing. What was so great about touching this girl?

His biggest fear now was Bai Qianshuang running away.

The longer she stayed, the better, preferably forever.

She was a sunflower that automatically produced sunshine, occasionally giving him cultivation items.

It was purely because of Ye Chuan's righteousness. If it were soone else, imprisoning Bai Qianshuang wouldn't be surprising.

Besides, he needed to increase her favorability. Wouldn't doing sothing like that decrease it?

Ye Chuan wasn't that stupid.

"Ye Chuan, you are a righteous man." Bai Qianshuang let out a slow breath. Ye Chuan's actions over the past two days had earned her trust, and seeing the table full of food, she couldn't deny she was touched.

He was taking care of her without asking for anything in return.

Such a selfless person. Thinking that she had almost wronged him, Bai Qianshuang felt incredibly ashad.

"Rumble—" Her stomach growled again.

Ye Chuan glanced at Bai Qianshuang. "Eat first, your stomach is about to start a symphony."

He still had to teach Bai Qianshuang how to take a shower later.
