Ye Lingling was so conflicted that she was almost twisted in her own hair, unsure whether to trust Bai Yu.
After all, the method he described was a bit terrifying. Immediately shatter the martial Soul, which wasn't the kind of shattering that happens in normal combat, but rather directly shattering the very essence of the martial Soul!
If this thing is broken up, can it be put back together? Wouldn't that just render it useless?
Ye Lingling was completely confused. She quickly shook her head, exhaled, and looked at Bai Yu with a complicated expression.
"I can agree to your research on the Nine-Heart Begonia, but I can't decide on dismantling and reassembling it; I need my mother's and grandfather's consent!"
Bai Yu smiled and nodded in agreement. After all, how could an eighteen-year-old girl like Ye Lingling make such a big decision?
"No problem. Go back and tell your family. If they're willing to give it a try, they can come to Shrek Academy to find me. It used to be called Blue Tyrant Academy."
Just as Bai Yu and Ye Lingling were talking, a surprised voice came from not far away, interrupting the two of them.
"Hey kid Bai, in such a short time, what did you do to my granddaughter? Tell me, did you bully my granddaughter?"
Bai Yu turned his head and saw that the old man Dugu Bo was staring at them with great interest, his expression a half-smile.
Upon hearing her grandfather's voice, Dugu Yan jumped up from Bai Yu's arms, covered her face, and hid behind Ye Lingling.
Feeling Dugu Yan's movement, Bai Yu's lips twitched. He had been so engrossed in his thoughts that he had forgotten that Dugu Yan was not yet his woman.
Moreover, the girl didn't resist at all, just stayed obediently in his arms, making him even less notice her.
"Tsk, alright, you old poisoner, stop looking at me like that. If Yanyan doesn't object, she can come with me from now on!"
Before Bai Yu could finish speaking, and before Dugu Bo could reply, Dugu Yan ran over, her face flushed, and said to Bai Yu:
"Don't talk nonsense. Who wants to follow you? I never agreed to that!"
Bai Yu reached out and pulled her into his arms again, resting his chin on her shoulder, and said with a smile:
"You didn't object just now, but it's too late to object now. Your grandfather saw everything. If I don't take you in, won't that old poisoner jump over and beat me up?"
Dugu Yan struggled for a few moments, but was made dizzy by the breath in her ear. She buried her face in Bai Yu's chest, feeling ashamed of herself!
Dugu Bo watched his granddaughter's behavior and sighed inwardly, "Tsk, Yanyan is quite capable!"
(TL: she is?)
He then took out the food and placed it on the stone table, jokingly saying:
"I've bought the food. I've already eaten lunch, so I'm going back to my room to rest. I won't disturb you young people's good time."
"And you, kid Bai, watch yourself, don't bully my granddaughter, or I'll never forgive you!"
Upon hearing her grandfather's words, Dugu Yan gritted her teeth and opened her mouth to bite Bai Yu.
"hiss!"
Bai Yu gasped, rolled his eyes at Dugu Bo, and said irritably:
"Go back inside quickly. If you stay here any longer, your granddaughter will bite me to death."
Dugu Bo laughed heartily, looking at Bai Yu with a mocking expression.
"Haha, okay, okay, I'll be going now, you guys enjoy your meal."
After Dugu Bo had walked away and disappeared from sight, Bai Yu patted Dugu Yan's smooth, slender waist and said helplessly:
"Alright, stop biting. Your grandpa's gone. Get up and eat!"
Dugu Yan released Bai Yu, looked up and around, and found that her grandfather had indeed gone away, but her good friend Ye Lingling was staring straight at her.
Dugu Yan immediately stood up, grabbed Ye Lingling, and ran towards the backyard, shouting as she ran.
"Bai Yu, help set out the food. Lingling and I are going to change our clothes and we'll be right back!"
Bai Yu watched the two figures disappear into the distance, scratched the corner of his mouth, chuckled softly, and muttered to himself:
"Hey, this Dugu Yan, I don't know if she's bold or cowardly, there's really a contrast between her and the nightclub queen, who's both innocent and seductive?"
Meanwhile, on Dugu Yan's side, Ye Lingling was teasing her best friend.
"Yanyan, didn't you say before that you'd teach that Bai Yu a lesson when you saw him? How did you end up getting yourself into this mess?"
"Heh, you're just sitting quietly in someone's arms, not moving at all. You're making a fool of yourself by offering yourself up, aren't you?"
Dugu Yan got a little flustered by Ye Lingling's teasing, her pretty face turned red, and she launched a sneak attack on Ye Lingling, who was changing clothes.
She ripped off Ye Lingling's undershirt, grabbed the car headlights with both hands, swayed them from side to side, and said through gritted teeth:
"Don't be too smug! If your family agrees to try his method, I'll have Bai Yu set conditions and take you away. Let's see what you do then!"
Ye Lingling was numb from being pinched by her best friend. She was a weak healing soul master, and her soul power was not as high as her friend's. She was directly suppressed!
"Yan... Dugu Yan! Let me go! Don't you have some yourself?"
"Sister Yanyan, I was wrong, really, I won't do it again next time, please let me go, okay?"
From being defiant to begging for mercy, Ye Lingling's entire demeanor lasted less than ten seconds. When Dugu Yan released her, Ye Lingling's face, along with her ears and neck, was completely red.
Bai Yu waited in the pavilion for almost twenty minutes before the two finally arrived. He sighed inwardly, thinking how slow women take to change clothes!
"Are you guys going to make clothes? Hurry up and come over, or the food won't taste good."
Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at him and pulled Ye Lingling, whose expression was unnatural, to sit down.
Only then did Bai Yu take a closer look at the two people's clothes. Dugu Yan was still wearing a waist-revealing fitted outfit, but she had changed her combat uniform into a sportswear outfit.
Ye Lingling, on the other hand, changed into a black jumpsuit. Although it didn't show off her figure, it still gave a general idea of what she was wearing, which was much better than that plain black dress.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were eating and whispering to each other when suddenly Dugu Yan turned to look at Bai Yu.
"By the way, Bai Yu, are you confident about the method you told Lingling about?"
"Yanyan!"
Just as Bai Yu was about to speak, Ye Lingling interrupted him. Looking at Ye Lingling, who was about to jump up, he was a little surprised. What were these two doing?
Ignoring the two bickering, he put down his chopsticks and said:
"I'm definitely confident, but the materials I need are a bit hard to come by. I have to find someone to get them, and it's hard to say when I'll be able to find someone."
"Moreover, the danger is not low, because I don't know much about the Nine Heart Begonia, so I need to study it carefully."
Dugu Yan nodded and continued eating. Ye Lingling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her sister weren't talking nonsense, and said to Bai Yu:
"Mr. Bai, thank you for your trouble. Lingling will inform the family and carefully consider your solution!"
Bai Yu waved his hand, picked up his chopsticks, and continued eating.
"Miss Ye, you don't need to be so polite. Even if you agree to try, I have conditions if it is successful, so this can only be considered a transaction."
Ye Lingling nodded, her expression solemn.
"Of course, the issue of martial Soul inheritance has always troubled our family. If Mr. Bai can solve it, I believe that as long as the Ye family can do it, we can make any request!"
