"..."
Wen Zhixing and Bai Luqiu exchanged a glance.
The current situation... It truly was... How could they describe it? No matter how one looked at it, it was just plain awkward.
"It’s all your fault, you bad seed..." A bitter smile crept onto Bai Luqiu’s face. If their sparring had finished a bit sooner, it wouldn’t have co to this.
"What does it have to do with ." Realizing what Bai Luqiu ant, Wen Zhixing felt wronged and couldn’t help but mutter under his breath. Weren’t you the one who said you hadn’t eradicated the hidden ailnt in your body? Otherwise, it would have ended earlier. Ugh, no good deed goes unpunished.
"I... will strangle you..." Bai Luqiu stepped forward and pinched the soft flesh around his waist with her slender white hands. Taking advantage and then playing coy, are we! Weren’t my clothes torn by you?!
"URGH..." Wen Zhixing imdiately yelped in pain, letting out a soft groan. It was strange. With his physical strength and pain tolerance, an attack of this level should have been completely painless. But for so reason, Bai Luqiu’s hands seed to have found his Achilles’ heel. That pinch was excruciating.
"Luqiu... It’s my fault, all my fault." Wen Zhixing quickly begged for rcy. A wise man doesn’t suffer an imdiate loss. Besides, Bai Luqiu was his woman. Although their relationship wasn’t official yet, what was bound to happen had already happened.
Seeing Wen Zhixing wincing in pain, Bai Luqiu’s heart softened, and her fingers loosened as she said, "Don’t say unnecessary things later. Leave it all to , understand?"
"Okay, I’ll keep quiet." Wen Zhixing hurriedly nodded. He was happy to do so.
"What are you dawdling for? Get inside now." Seeing Wen Zhixing not moving, Bai Luqiu spoke again, this ti with a touch of annoyance.
「Inside the house.」
It was naturally in a state of disarray. Wen Zhixing and Bai Luqiu had just finished their sparring, so they naturally hadn’t had ti to tidy up.
Liu Qingdai walked in, and the first thing that caught her eye was the screen collapsed on the floor. There were two deep scratch marks on the screen. They must have been made by soone grasping at it.
"These scratch marks, could it be..." Liu Qingdai halted in her tracks as she saw this.
As the thought occurred to her, her face flushed, and after a mont of silence, she took a deep breath and let her gaze sweep through the surroundings. She could see that other pieces of furniture were also knocked over and scattered about. All over the room, there were signs of a fierce battle. If one observed carefully, many places bore distinct scratch marks. It was evident that the place had experienced an intense fight.
Especially on the soft bed with the red silk brocade where so torn clothes were strewn about.
Liu Qingdai was well aware those were Bai Luqiu’s clothes.
Previously, Liu Qingdai might have been able to console herself that it was all a misunderstanding. But now, the evidence was irrefutable. She couldn’t even deceive herself. Surely, they couldn’t have *actually* been sparring, could they?
Just then, Bai Luqiu and Wen Zhixing also walked in.
Seeing Liu Qingdai’s eyes scanning the room, Wen Zhixing quickly spoke up, "COUGH... Senior Sister, the room’s a bit ssy. Please, take a seat."
As he spoke, he moved to guide her to a seat. Fortunately, the stone table and stools in the room were sturdy, among the few pieces of furniture still standing.
"Okay." Liu Qingdai did not react peculiarly and simply sat down.
However, as soon as she did, she noticed two inverted scratch marks along the edge of the stone table. The tabletop also had a series of scratch marks. Clearly, this spot had also been a battlefield. And a heated one at that.
"..." Liu Qingdai’s body tensed up, and she could no longer maintain her composure.
Wen Zhixing hadn’t noticed yet, but Bai Luqiu, also a woman, instantly understood. Recalling her earlier intense battle with Wen Zhixing, her face turned beet red in an instant. If only she hadn’t listened to Wen Zhixing! A spar was just a spar; there was no need to change locations so many tis. Honestly!
"I told you not to say unnecessary things!" Bai Luqiu shot Wen Zhixing an annoyed, embarrassed look. Great. Now Liu Qingdai definitely suspected sothing.
Feeling Bai Luqiu’s glare, Wen Zhixing frowned and muttered to himself, What did I do now...? He had rely invited her to sit; he hadn’t said anything out of line.
Subsequently, he wanted to offer so polite remarks, but when he turned his head, he was t with Bai Luqiu’s fierce gaze.
Alright, better to keep quiet then. Bai Luqiu was his half Taoist companion now, after all; yielding a bit for her was no big deal.
"Qingdai, how have you been these past few days? How did Si Nanyan let you out?" Bai Luqiu sat down right next to Liu Qingdai, took her hand, and asked with concern, successfully changing the subject. She didn’t ntion a word about the state of the room. She figured it was best to take things one step at a ti.
"Luqiu, maybe... you should put so clothes on first..." Liu Qingdai’s gaze, however, settled on Bai Luqiu’s scanty attire.
It had to be admitted, that figure was truly sothing... A single glance revealed an ample bosom. Looking lower, one saw smooth, slender legs, pale and flawless. Bai Luqiu currently exuded a mature charm that Liu Qingdai herself lacked. Even as a fellow woman, Qingdai felt a little stirred.
"..." Bai Luqiu stiffened at the comnt. She’d completely forgotten about that. She found it hard to respond to this.
Standing aside, Wen Zhixing almost burst out laughing. And she tells not to talk, yet look at her!
"Don’t laugh!" Bai Luqiu whipped her head around, shooting him a death glare. It’s all your fault! And you have the nerve to laugh!
Wen Zhixing quickly wiped the smile off his face. Heh, she’s my Taoist companion; I can indulge her one more ti.
"Anyway, there’s no need to change. We’re all family here, after all. No point letting such ’fertile waters’ benefit outsiders, right, Wen?"
