On the floor were pink stickers, paint, brushes, and four pink bear keychains.
Ye Fan looked up, his voice laced with a hint of bewildernt.
"Xiao Xi, are these the things you prepared?"
"Yes!"
Ning Xi squatted down in front of Ye Fan, her small finger pointing at the pile of items as she began to explain.
"These pink stickers are for the walls. I plan to create a Chibi Maruko-chan design, it'll be cute and pretty."
"..."
A hint of bitterness flashed in Ye Fan's eyes.
Chibi Maruko-chan...
Girl, are you serious?
A grown man has Chibi Maruko-chan stickers on his walls.
It just felt weird!
Unaware of Ye Fan's reaction, Ning Xi continued excitedly, "The brushes and paint are the main tools for today. I'm going to paint two cherry blossom trees on your wall, one big and one small."
"..."
"Well, you better paint them well. Don't ruin my wall."
"Don't worry!"
Ning Xi patted her chest with such force that Ye Fan's eyelids twitched.
Girl, be gentle...
"Okay, in that case, I'll leave it to Master Ning."
Ye Fan knew Ning Xi's painting skills well.
Above average.
This girl had learned so many things: piano, dance, vocal music, calligraphy, and so on.
Perhaps this was how rich kids were.
"Go read your books."
Ning Xi pushed Ye Fan into the bedroom and pouted. "You're not allowed to co out without my permission."
"Don't you need my help?"
Ye Fan smiled, his eyes full of indulgence.
"No."
Ning Xi quickly turned her head away, her soft voice dropping significantly. "I... I already ate the delicious al you made, I can handle the decorating myself."
"N-no... no need for your help."
"Then be careful, don't climb too high, don't..."
"Oh my God, why are you more naggy than my dad?"
Ning Xi glared at Ye Fan fiercely, but her expression lacked any real threat.
"I'm just worried..."
"Slam—"
Before Ye Fan could finish his sentence, Ning Xi closed the door. He smacked his lips, amused.
He still wanted to go out.
Watching Ning Xi work was a beautiful sight.
But since she didn't want him to, he wouldn't force it.
He walked over to his computer and sat down. After thinking for a mont, he took out his phone, found his landlord's number, and called.
"Hello, who's this?"
"Hello, landlord, it's the tenant from 606, do you rember ?"
"Xiao Ye, is that you?"
"Yes, it's ."
"What's wrong? Is there sothing wrong with the apartnt?"
"No."
Ye Fan chuckled politely and got straight to the point.
"I'm planning to paint so pictures on the walls of the apartnt. I wonder if that's okay?"
"Huh? That... might not be appropriate, right?"
"I'm willing to pay ten thousand yuan as compensation, is that okay?"
"Hmm... okay, sure."
"Thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan smiled slightly. He was a little curious about how Ning Xi would transform the living room.
Although he wasn't particularly fond of pink things.
But it depended on who it was.
If it was Ning Xi...
Anything was fine!
Having nothing better to do, Ye Fan brought up his attribute panel.
[Host]: Ye Fan

[Strength]: Level 3 (0/2000)
[dical Skills]: Level 2 (0/500)
[rit Points]: 0
[Experience Points]: 489
He was only 11 experience points away from upgrading dical Skills to Level 3. He could have earned enough experience points last night, but he was busy looking up recipes for seafood and didn't have ti to read.
Since he had so free ti now, Ye Fan decided to get the last 11 experience points.
With that, he picked up a book and started reading.
rit Points, here I co!
"Reading for ten minutes, experience points 1."
"Reading for ten minutes, experience points 1."
...
"Book finished reading, experience points 5."
An hour and a half later, the system prompt sounded in Ye Fan's mind, and a small smile appeared on his face.
"Upgrade dical Skills."
System: "Upgrading dical Skills requires 500 experience points. Do you want to upgrade?"
"Yes!"
System: "500 experience points consud, dical Skills successfully upgraded to Level 3."
The attribute panel imdiately changed.

[Intelligence]: Level 3 (0/2000)
[Strength]: Level 3 (0/2000)

"Ding—"
"Detected that the host's four abilities have all reached Level 3. The system will now automatically upgrade. The upgrade will take 4 hours. After the upgrade, the rit Points system will be unlocked."
Done!
Four hours later, he would know what these so-called rit Points were for.
It was now 4:40 p.m.
Ye Fan walked to the door and listened to the rustling sounds coming from the living room. He resisted the urge to go out and returned to his computer desk.
He picked up a different book and continued reading.
Twenty minutes later, Ye Fan put down the book, a helpless look on his face.
He couldn't even gain experience points while the system was upgrading?
He had to go out!
Ye Fan walked softly to the door and carefully unlocked it, moving as slowly as a snail, afraid of making any noise that might alert Ning Xi.
In the living room, Ning Xi was sitting on a bar stool, facing the left wall, a paintbrush in her delicate hand, her eyes focused.
She would paint for a while, then stop and contemplate.
The living room lights and the setting sun created a soft, pale yellow glow, bathing the girl in a golden halo.
The specks of pink paint on her black hair made her look like a cherry blossom fairy who had descended to the mortal world.
Serene, beautiful.
Ye Fan stopped in his tracks, srized.
He quietly took out his phone, switched it to silent mode, and took a picture of this scene.
Such a beautiful sight should be preserved forever.
Ye Fan silently walked over to the sofa and sat down, gazing at the cherry blossom tree that was taking shape on the wall, his eyes filled with even more tenderness.
Ti ticked by...
Ye Fan's gaze was fixed on Ning Xi, he couldn't bear to look away.
This was the epito of quiet beauty.
"Whew—"
"Finally done."
He didn't know how much ti had passed when Ning Xi put down the paintbrush in her hand, clumsily got off the bar stool, took a few steps back, and looked at the cherry blossom tree on the wall, a satisfied smile appearing on her pretty face.
She had painted a small cherry blossom tree on the right wall, and this one on the left wall was the main attraction of today's decoration.
It seed to have turned out quite well.
"Clap, clap—"
Ye Fan clapped his hands and praised, "It's beautiful."
"Huh?"
Hearing the sound, Ning Xi turned around and saw Ye Fan on the sofa. Her lips pouted slightly. "Didn't I tell you not to co out yet? Now there's no elent of surprise."
"Who said so?"
Ye Fan shook his head and said with a smile, "I'm already very surprised. Any more surprise and my heart wouldn't be able to handle it."
He clutched his chest, imitating Ning Xi's tone from earlier. "Don't tell you're trying to scare to death so you can inherit my debt?"
"Pfft!"
Ning Xi pursed her lips, a beautiful smile blooming on her face. For a mont, her charm seed to brighten the entire living room.
"Ye Fan, what ti is it?"
Her soft and sweet voice was as heartwarming as ever, reaching deep into his soul, washing away all the dust.
"5:30 p.m."
Ye Fan's eyes flickered slightly. "It's ti to go ho. Go wash your hands, I'll walk you back."
"No need."
Ning Xi shook her head gently, politely declining.
"I can take a taxi back myself. Rember to clean up the trash later, and open the windows. The paint has a bit of a sll, it needs to air out."
Her words lted Ye Fan's heart completely, his love for her a bottomless whirlpool.
"Grow up quickly."
"Huh?"
Ning Xi looked confused at Ye Fan's sudden words.
Grow up quickly?
What did he an?
"W-what are you talking about?"
"Nothing, just kidding."
Ye Fan shook his head repeatedly, turned around, and took out a mask from the storage cabinet. His voice was calm, but there was a hint of insistence in it.
"I'm walking you ho."
As he spoke, he brushed the hair away from her face and put the mask on her.
A blush appeared on Ning Xi's fair face, as red and captivating as the sunset clouds.
Instinctively, she wanted to stop Ye Fan.
It was too intimate, not appropriate...
But the words were stuck in her throat.
Looking at Ye Fan's clear eyes and handso features.
She was stunned.
He slled so good...
Just this once?
Yes, just this once!
Next ti, she would definitely refuse~
