Ning Rongrong frowned.
She looked at Ye Qiu and Zhu Zhuqing with some confusion.
What's going on?
The revenge for Dai Mubai getting "cuckolded" was over just like that?
But she didn't feel the joy she had imagined. That little bit of happiness couldn't even compare to the small joke the trickster had made earlier—it actually felt a little awkward.
Ning Rongrong's gaze turned toward Ye Qiu, and she seemed to notice the faint curl at the corner of his lips.
Before she could say anything, Ye Qiu took her hand and led her toward a street stall.
"H-Hey, what are you doing?"
Ning Rongrong struggled lightly, and Ye Qiu let go of her.
By now, they were standing in front of a mask stall.
Ye Qiu squatted and casually picked up a mask identical to the one Xiao Wu had worn.
Ning Rongrong looked at Ye Qiu with disdain.
So lame—he doesn't even know how to flirt properly. She hadn't even struggled hard earlier.
Sensing Zhu Zhuqing's strange gaze from the side, Ning Rongrong was startled. Her face flushed, and she looked away, glancing up at the sky.
"All right, Ning Rongrong. Why are you so dazed?"
"Just pay and let's go."
Ye Qiu stood, looking at Ning Rongrong who was staring at the sky. He pinched her chin and shook her head lightly.
"Ah, Ye Qiu, why are you touching me?"
Ning Rongrong flusteredly brushed his hand away, her delicate cheeks tinged with pink. She glared at Ye Qiu, crossing her arms:
"And why do I have to pay for what you're buying?"
"What are you talking about?!"
Before Ning Rongrong could explain, Ye Qiu pressed the mask against her flushed, pretty face.
"Zhu Zhuqing, let's go."
Ye Qiu let out a light chuckle, signaling Zhu Zhuqing and heading toward the Soto Great Douluo Arena.
Zhu Zhuqing was a bit stunned.
Watching Ye Qiu's back, she couldn't understand him at all.
If she had misjudged him before, this time it definitely wasn't an illusion—Ye Qiu had smiled.
Under the sunlight, and with pride, she could see it clearly.
What on earth was going on?!
Zhu Zhuqing didn't understand. Was Xiao Wu's matter really over just like that? She couldn't help but frown.
By the time they reached the entrance to the Douluo Arena,
Ning Rongrong's face was still filled with displeasure. She held the mask, glaring at Ye Qiu with grievance.
That big trickster—why did he leave her there to pay, while he took Zhu Zhuqing, that big "cat," away?
Meanwhile, Zhu Zhuqing continued observing Ye Qiu curiously.
Behind Ye Qiu and the others,
Dai Mubai had long breathed a sigh of relief.
He had already realized that Ye Qiu and the others were heading to the Douluo Arena, and were not going to commit that "infidelity" against his fiancée.
Dai Mubai followed them.
Seeing them walk toward the registration spot, he immediately kept pace.
Since he had lost face last time here, this time he would retrieve it in the same place!
Thinking this, Dai Mubai smiled wickedly. With confident strides, he crossed in front of Ning Rongrong and stood behind Zhu Zhuqing.
At the registration counter,
Ning Rongrong focused on glaring at Ye Qiu, who ignored her.
Suddenly, a blond figure passed by.
"Huh?"
Ning Rongrong paused, looking at Dai Mubai's back with disgust.
"Why did you follow us?"
"What? I can't come to practice real combat?"
Dai Mubai looked back at Ning Rongrong with a cold smile, then nodded lightly at Ye Qiu.
This was genuine respect for a strong person—from the heart. He didn't want to offend Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu nodded slightly in return, acknowledging the greeting.
This kind of distinction made Ning Rongrong furious.
Since leaving home, only here at Shrek Academy had she encountered so many instances of being looked down upon.
She couldn't help shouting angrily:
"Get lost! Who do you think you are, cutting in line!"
Dai Mubai glared at Ning Rongrong fiercely but ignored her.
Instead, he looked at Ye Qiu:
"Ye Qiu, sorry about that."
"No problem."
Ye Qiu shook his head, indifferent to such a minor matter.
"Ye Qiu… you!"
Ning Rongrong was furious.
Dai Mubai looked at her mockingly.
Earlier, when Ning Rongrong caused trouble, he had been seething. Now, watching her glaring and unable to act against him, he felt utterly satisfied.
"Zhu Qing."
Dai Mubai called lightly, but Zhu Zhuqing returned a cold glance.
She had heard everything just now, word for word.
As expected, he was still bullying the weak.
Giving Dai Mubai a cold glare, Zhu Zhuqing walked to the side, waiting for Ning Rongrong and the others.
Dai Mubai didn't care.
As long as he could show off his power in the Douluo Arena and win, nothing else mattered.
Smiling, he stepped forward and paid for registration.
Behind him,
Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth, glaring at Ye Qiu.
"You liar! You tricked me again! You said we were friends, and you didn't help me!"
"Enough. It's a small matter. Don't make a fuss,"
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes helplessly and pinched Ning Rongrong's chin, turning it from side to side.
Ning Rongrong was about to brush his hand away,
But noticed the Douluo Arena guards were already watching them.
Ye Qiu pinched her chin and leaned close to her delicate side face and ear, breathing softly:
"Just cutting in line won't change the green-haired ending on his head."
The warm breath brushed against Ning Rongrong's face.
Her cheeks burned, her breathing quickened, and her gaze became flustered. She immediately pushed Ye Qiu away.
"You… you step back a bit."
Ning Rongrong snorted coldly, lowering her head, lightly touching her flushed side face and brushing hair behind her ear.
Ye Qiu chuckled softly, reaching out to pat her head.
"All right, get your money ready."
"Ah, okay."
Ning Rongrong nodded unconsciously.
She was about to take out the money, then suddenly realized:
"No! Wait!"
Ning Rongrong raised her eyes, opened Ye Qiu's hand, and frowned, looking at him confused: "We're doing a doubles Douluo match, why do I have to pay?"
"Do you still want to Douluo or not?"
Ye Qiu shrugged nonchalantly.
Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth.
Why did she come to the Douluo Arena?
Mainly to make Ye Qiu happy, not just for herself.
This heartless guy!
Ning Rongrong pushed Ye Qiu hard.
"You jerk!"
Ye Qiu remained unfazed, took the mask from her hand, and personally placed it on Ning Rongrong.
"All right, obediently wear the mask and go pay for registration."
"Also pay for my singles match fee while you're at it."
"But after we win, you'll get all the prize money. That's all yours."
Ning Rongrong pouted.
But seeing Ye Qiu's smile, she wasn't that angry anymore.
Seeing his handsome face covered by the mask,
Ning Rongrong reluctantly asked, awkwardly: "Then what's our team name?"
"One Leaf Liuli? Or QiuRong, whatever you like."
Ye Qiu shrugged casually.
"All right, let's call it the QiuRong Team."
Ning Rongrong simply felt the name brought them closer.
This felt like having a friend.
Yes, that's right.
Ning Rongrong pressed her red lips together, glanced at Ye Qiu beside her, and walked past Dai Mubai.
She placed the prepared Golden Spirit Coins on the table.
When did this guy reach level 44?
When testing soul power,
Ning Rongrong's eyes had been a mix of surprise and admiration—this trickster's talent was truly extraordinary!
