"So amazing!"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at the completely changed world before her, unable to help but sigh in amazement.
She waved her hand—swish swish.
Several leaves were pierced through the central leaf vein, all strung together on the blade that had grown from her index finger.
Terrifying dynamic vision and perception ability.
"There's no need to fight. This isn't a good place for testing."Sensing Zhu Zhuqing's eagerness to try, Ye Qiu immediately spoke to stop her.
Puff—!
Zhu Zhuqing's bound, tense body suddenly loosened, like a cat pouncing and then losing balance again.
The black liquid withdrew from her delicate body, reforming into Ye Qiu.
Zhu Zhuqing clenched her clever little hand. Her soul power, which had been thick and overflowing moments ago, was now completely gone—drained clean.
As Ye Qiu had just stood firm—
Zhu Zhuqing, now fully aware, frowned and stared straight at him, her red lips parting.
"Ye Qiu, you deceived me."
"Oh? How so?"
Ye Qiu blinked.
"Why did your memories hide something from me? Weren't we supposed to be 'mutual'?"
When Zhu Zhuqing started watching Ye Qiu's memories, she had the intention of exploring. Setting everything else aside, just the recent memories—especially Xiao Wu's whereabouts—were obviously problematic.
She had stripped herself bare, yet he still had a cover on.
"These parts of my memory involve matters far too important. Knowing too much does you no good."
Ye Qiu shrugged helplessly.
"Rongrong was right. You really are a big liar."
Zhu Zhuqing muttered coldly, rubbing her body where Ye Qiu had held her a moment ago—still feeling discomfort.
Ye Qiu didn't refute it.
He did indeed scam Ning Rongrong quite badly.
Smiling, he said:"If you truly want to know, once we leave Shrek, I'll tell you."
"You want me to go with you?"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at him in surprise.
Ye Qiu nodded slightly."Of course. If I'm leaving, naturally I'll take you with me."
Zhu Zhuqing frowned.
"You should know about my family background, right?"
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes.
"I've known clearly from the very beginning."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ye Qiu strangely.
"Since you know, then why—"
"Sort out the reason you want to become stronger!"
Ye Qiu shook his head, directly cutting her off.
"You're becoming stronger now—is it just to abandon Dai Mubai, then defeat your older sister alone, and struggle to survive in the conflict?Or is it to break free from your shackles and take control of your own life?
If you still want to return to the Zhu family, then what's the point of becoming stronger?Just to get rid of Dai Mubai? Why not broaden your perspective—after becoming stronger, wouldn't changing the Zhu family be better?"
Zhu Zhuqing froze.
The first part was reality.The second part—she didn't dare think about it. Never had.
She asked herself.
Her reason for coming here was Dai Mubai.She thought after running away he would feel shame and improve, but reality crushed that hope.
The shabby academy, the rotten lifestyle, the empty strength—all made her unable to see any chance of turning the tables.
"I know you still have concerns—uncertainty about the future, distrust of me, and so on. That's normal. After all, we've only known each other for a few days."
Ye Qiu shrugged and took a few steps forward.
"But I said it before—I will never abandon you."
"If I take you away, I have the confidence—and the ability—to protect you completely."
As he spoke—
Ye Qiu poked Zhu Zhuqing's heart position once more.Elastic and full.
"I still need to think about it!"
Zhu Zhuqing glared at him angrily, slapping his hand away and stepping back.
Ye Qiu retracted his hand awkwardly, chuckling.
"Still thinking?"
"Do you still have fantasies about Dai Mubai? You saw it earlier, right? He wasn't at the academy. You think after the soul fight, he stayed outside alone for that long to do what?"
"He can do whatever he wants. It has nothing to do with me anymore."
Zhu Zhuqing frowned.
So Ye Qiu didn't just let her experience his perception ability—he had calculations behind it too.
Completely unnecessary.
These days at Shrek had already made her lose all illusions toward Dai Mubai.
She just wanted…to observe Ye Qiu a bit longer. After all, this guy still hid a lot of secrets.
"Alright, no problem. You still have time to think."
Ye Qiu nodded with a smile.
He more or less understood her little thoughts.After all, they hadn't interacted for long.
"When I'm about to leave, you can answer me."
"What if I refuse?"
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly asked.
"Refuse?"
Ye Qiu raised his brows and casually waved his hand.
"We're already in this kind of relationship—I'll just knock you out and carry you away.
I said—I'll never leave you behind."
"You're being a scoundrel!"
Zhu Zhuqing snorted coldly.
Her face reddened.That kind of relationship?Such misleading words.
Ye Qiu wasn't to be outdone and refuted immediately:
"Nonsense, this is called keeping my promise!"
"You—!"
Zhu Zhuqing was speechless. She wanted to scold him but the words stuck.Although shameless… somehow it felt reassuring.
She crossed her arms in front of her chest, stopping the cat-jumping motion so Ye Qiu wouldn't keep watching.Pouting:"Since you're planning to carry me away anyway, why even ask me?"
Ye Qiu said matter-of-factly:"I'm respecting your opinion."
"You… hehe."
Zhu Zhuqing gritted her teeth and coldly sneered.
"You really treat me well, huh?"
"As long as you know."
Ye Qiu nodded happily, waved his hand, and turned to leave.
"Enough talking. I'm going back for a nap."After a few steps, he looked back:"Right—remember to leave your door open tonight."
Zhu Zhuqing stared at him coldly.
"What are you planning?"
"Come find you to cultivate."
"Cultivate? In my dorm room at night?"
Zhu Zhuqing felt uneasy, like leading a wolf into her room.
Ye Qiu nodded.
"Yeah. Your dorm, or mine.Of course, if you prefer outdoors, that's fine too.I can satisfy you."
"You—! Get lost!"
Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed as she shouted him down.
Why did this bastard's expression look so meaningful—as if he were about to do something improper?
"Haha… see you tonight!"
Ye Qiu waved and slowly walked off.
Zhu Zhuqing watched his departing figure, recalling his words.Slowly lowering her head, looking at her hands, she muttered:
"Change the Zhu family? Can I really… do that?"
She didn't know.She didn't dare imagine it.She wasn't Ye Qiu—she didn't have that fearless confidence.
————————————
Returning to the dorm, Ye Qiu didn't actually nap.Instead, he cultivated with A Yin.
The Blue Silver Emperor beside the bed—
Its entire body was covered in Ye Qiu's black substance, the dark branches and leaves swaying.
