Poison Douluo left, plunging the inn into dead silence.
Yu Tianheng and his four companions looked at each other in dismay.
Shi Mo clutched his chest, his face contorting with pain as he said, "Boss, what do we do now?"
Yu Tianheng's eyes were lifeless, "What do you mean what do we do?"
"Are we just going to let this go? Aren't we going to seek revenge and redress our grievances?" Shi Mo buzzed, filled with reluctance.
After a long silence, Shi Mo turned his head to meet a pair of eyes looking at him as if he were an idiot.
"Boss, you..."
Yu Tianheng hurriedly pushed his hand away and said breathlessly, "Stop calling me boss, you're the boss from now on!"
Shi Mo muttered under his breath, "Boss, are you chickening out?"
Yu Tianheng immediately became agitated and scolded, "Are you fucking stupid?"
"Do you not realize who Poison Douluo is?"
"Does he look like someone who would swallow an insult and not hold a grudge?"
"We went to Shrek Academy and got beaten up like this, without a single complaint. Can you imagine how formidable the guy's true background must be!"
The remaining four fell silent under the reprimand, and eventually, Yu Tianheng's domineering presence collapsed as he let out a deep sigh.
"I love to show off, but that doesn't mean I'm a fool."
"That guy is invulnerable in both strength and background, it's clear we've kicked an iron plate this time."
"Let's drop it. If we can't afford to provoke him, we can still avoid him. I'll pinch my nose and accept my fate."
"Sigh."
With a long, lingering sigh, followed by another four, filled with desolation and melancholy.
...
The next morning, Luo Yu got out of bed feeling fully satisfied, still savoring the moment.
The feeling of having assistance and increased attack speed was a joy that ordinary people couldn't understand.
The only downside was that Ning Rongrong was after all a delicate girl from a boudoir, the noble Little Princess of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect; she had never done such physical labor.
Indeed, she was a bit unaccustomed to it.
This made Luo Yu couldn't help but sigh, thinking that if Ye Lingling were here, that would be great.
She could have given Ning Rongrong a boost.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
The room door was knocked, followed by A Wu's gentle call.
"Xiao Yu, that old poison is looking for you."
"Got it, I'll be right there."
Luo Yu shouted toward the door, and gave Ning Rongrong's fair forehead in his arms a gentle kiss, "Baby, rest easy here with me; I need to step out for a bit."
"How can you call someone baby, it's so cheesy~" Ning Rongrong's watery large eyes filled with shyness and her cheeks turned red as apples, burying her head in the man's chest.
"Weren't you the one who asked me to keep calling you that last night?" Luo Yu said with a wicked smile, "What, now you don't recognize me after getting out of bed?"
"Stop, I'm not listening, I'm not listening," Ning Rongrong plugged her small ears with her fingers and kept shaking her head in Luo Yu's embrace.
Luo Yu got dressed and was ready to leave.
Ning Rongrong grabbed the hem of his clothes, pouting her tender lips and started using her coquetry skills, "I don't want to be separated from you, I want to go out with you too."
Luo Yu extended his large hand, affectionately stroking her hair, "Be good, I'll bring back a gift for you that you definitely wouldn't expect."
"No~ I don't want anything else, I just want you," Ning Rongrong batted her long eyelashes.
Who could withstand this?
The tender coquettish voice almost melted Luo Yu's bones.
Where was Ning Rongrong the Little Princess? She was clearly a Little Fairy who could wear people down.
This is too much!
"Brother Yu, then wait for me. I'll go out with you,"
Ning Rongrong said as she tried to get up, but her eyebrows furrowed, and she collapsed back down.
Luo Yu tenderly covered her with the blanket, his finger tapping her delicate nose, "If you're injured, just rest well. Don't move around."
Ning Rongrong pouted, "You bad guy, you still have the nerve to say that!"
"Cough cough."
"I'll bring you a gift when I come back as compensation."
"Forget the gift, give me a kiss before you go," Ning Rongrong said as she puckered up her red lips.
"Are you sure you don't want a gift?" Luo Yu teased with a raised eyebrow.
"Yes, I don't," Ning Rongrong said with a smile, "Brother Yu, I'm the Little Princess of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect. What kind of treasure haven't I seen? Your kiss is more valuable, hehe."
"Don't regret it later," Luo Yu said softly as he kissed her lips.
"Creak."
The door closed again.
Ning Rongrong was left alone in the room, her pretty face showing a look of satisfaction and love.
With a dreamy gaze and slightly parted red lips, she murmured quietly,
"Mom, Rongrong has met a man she likes."
"That big bad guy last night didn't show any mercy, but Rongrong really likes him a lot, hee hee."
"I wonder if Dad will like him, he surely will, right?"
"Rongrong is a bit scared to tell Dad, how about you send him a dream?"
Talking to herself, Ning Rongrong's eyes reddened, and mist filled them.
Luo Yu and A Wu walked down the street.
The beautiful woman wore a sexy body-hugging long dress today, her charming thighs occasionally peeking through the hem of her dress, creating a hazy beauty.
"Xiao Yu, how was it? Did you enjoy last night?"
"What are you talking about? I don't understand."
A Wu hummed, "Forgot you tucked someone under the bed last night?"
"As expected, all men are scoundrels. Once they have a new flame, they forget their old love, huh!"
Luo Yu immediately smiled, his strong arm wrapping around the beautiful woman's waist.
"What, is our little bunny jealous?"
The beautiful woman's eyes flickered with panic as she struggled, "Xiao Yu, stop it. It's not good if someone sees us."
"Didn't you say I was neglecting you? Now, I'll get close to you, very close," Luo Yu said, his lips curving upwards.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, let go quickly, Xiao Wu doesn't know about us yet," she pleaded.
Looking at the beautiful woman in his embrace begging him, Luo Yu kissed her forehead and then let her go.
Why was he so decisive? Because he was not the only one who was afraid of A Wu's reaction... he was too!
"You stinky man, you're awful!" A Wu glared at him before quickly straightening out the wrinkles in her dress and pushing her hair back behind her neck.
Luo Yu remained silent with a smile.
As they arrived at the entrance of Shrek Academy, they were shocked by the scene before them...
