Currently, the peaceful days are the silence before the storm.
After everyone went through Gu Yan's guidance, they all felt a sudden clarity of thought.
The Martial Arts Department has increased its defensive strength, and the various martial arts factions are once again on high alert.
However, this has brought with it a significant mental stress.
Time passes, and another half month has gone by.
Everyone has reached their limits.
At the Leng Family.
Leng Qingqiu's daily routine is quite simple.
She wakes up early, washes up, and dresses.
Then she spends her time in the study room, learning and improving herself.
However, recently, she has added one more task to her morning routine.
That is...
"Yay! (^-^)V! Xiao Leng, look, I've already knitted half of the scarf!"
Leng Qingqiu happily holds up the scarf. Everyday, she only needs to spend a little bit of time knitting it.
Xiao Leng remains silent for a moment.
Then she sighs and says—
【The other me, don't you think it's time to study now? You've wasted too much time on this scarf】
【I'm sure our furnace base would be happy with a store-bought one too】
However, Leng Qingqiu shakes her head upon hearing this, expressing her dissatisfaction: "Xiao Leng, you just don't understand men's hearts."
"There's a clear difference between handmade and store-bought items, and this is something you need to learn."
At this point, Leng Qingqiu puts down the scarf and walks toward another room next to the study: "Oh, by the way."
Pushing open another door, she enters.
This room seems to be a specially-modified gaming room.
One wall is covered with collectible figures, and there are two gaming desks.
Each desk has a computer on it.
Seeing Leng Qingqiu enter this room, Xiao Leng remains silent.
【........】
Leng Qingqiu walks to one of the computer desks on her own and explains: "Recently, I asked Ling'er to teach me how to use a phone and a computer, but she said there were usage marks, thinking we bought a second-hand one."
"How could that be! It must be that Ling'er doesn't know how to play with these things herself."
At this, Xiao Leng's tone becomes unnatural—
【Why do you suddenly want to learn how to use a computer and a phone?】
"Why learn this?"
Leng Qingqiu is momentarily puzzled, then she snorts, crosses her arms, and says proudly: "Because Gu Yan has been so busy recently, he hasn't had a chance to come visit me."
"So if I learn to use these internet things like phones and computers, I can chat with Gu Yan online!"
【First... you're blind... second, have you never been in contact with these before?】
At this, Leng Qingqiu feels a bit upset: "What's wrong with being blind?"
"I just think chatting through VX voice would be more convenient, and according to Ling'er, if you chat every day, you get little sparks."
"And then they keep upgrading. Don't you think that's interesting?"
"As for before..."
Leng Qingqiu coughs awkwardly, speaking in an embarrassed tone: "I've never been good with electronic products... That's why I only read Braille books."
【........】
【Leaving aside the question of why someone with your exceptionally high intelligence would be such an electronics idiot, why do you care about getting little sparks with that furnace base?】
【You can't even see them.】
"So what if I'm blind!"
"I can't see them, but Gu Yan can! If he sees the sparks, sees my messages, he'll definitely be happy!"
"And if he's happy! Doesn't that mean he'll like me more! And the more he likes me, the more he'll submit to me and become my personal slave!"
Leng Qingqiu's face flushes as she defends herself, seemingly unaware that her reasoning sounds rather abnormal.
Xiao Leng surprisingly doesn't agree with Leng Qingqiu's words this time, not sure if she's seen the light or something.
She just slowly says
【The other me, if you continue like this, you're definitely going to regret it】
"?"
Leng Qingqiu slowly types a question mark. Why won't you listen when I'm talking to you?
Why do you have to say such unlucky things to me?
Leng Qingqiu becomes annoyed: "I don't need you to care! Xiao Leng, you don't understand anything!"
【The other me, it's because I understand too much, because you are me, and I am you...】
【Admit it...】
【Gu Yan not being around these days, haven't you noticed anything unusual about yourself?】
Leng Qingqiu is puzzled: "Unusual? What?"
【You've become... cuter, and your body temperature has risen, which are characteristics that shouldn't appear in the Night King】
Leng Qingqiu's face turns red at once, clearly not expecting Xiao Leng to say such a thing.
She cups her face with both hands, speaking incoherently: "Cute..? What are you talking about? And body temperature?"
As she speaks, Leng Qingqiu pauses, suddenly feeling her cheeks getting warm.
It seems that... her body temperature has indeed been rising lately?
"Xiao Leng? What's going on?"
Leng Qingqiu is confused.
【Cold, cruel, and unpredictable are the basic characteristics of the Night King】
【However, at certain times of the year, or when something affects the state of mind, the Night King will enter a special period】
【This is a period where the Night King becomes weak-willed... but your mental strength hasn't decreased at all, and has instead grown stronger due to mutual supplementation with the furnace base...】
【Therefore, you're probably in a variant stage of the decline period, considering your recent state...】
【Combined with the changes in the human body structure and the season...】
【I guess...you're probably... in heat】
【The other me, considering the agitation of the dagger before, you really are...】
Before she can finish,
Leng Qingqiu shouts in embarrassment: "In heat, what in heat! You're the one in heat! Xiao Leng, shut up!"
"Stop talking! If I ask you, it's all in vain! Just shut up!"
Leng Qingqiu feels ashamed, her chest rising and falling. Who can understand this! How can Xiao Leng say such filthy things so calmly??
And! It sounds like she's been yearning for Gu Yan all day! Too infuriating!
This makes her sound like a... well... to borrow Gu Yan's previous words.
A... hussy...
At this moment.
She suddenly feels a little dizzy.
Her body also starts to feel hot.
But she doesn't pay it any mind, just shakes her head: "Xiao Leng, I'm going to continue studying now. Anyway, you don't understand anything!"
With that, she starts fiddling with the computer.
If she can learn this, she not only can chat more closely with Gu Yan, but also learn all kinds of knowledge on the internet!
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
