Chương 151: Chapter 150: Curiosity
Ning Rongrong administered herbs to Xiao Wu.
These were specially picked by Ye Qiu from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Realm, meant for unexpected needs.
Among them was a superior herb called "Far-reaching Wisdom Lily," known for its soothing and calming effects.
It was due to this herb that Xiao Wu was able to wake up ahead of time.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong gathered around the bed, watching as Xiao Wu slowly opened her eyes.
Her crimson eyes trembled, taking in the surroundings.
"Xiao Wu, how do you feel?"
Ning Rongrong lowered her head, anxiously watching her.
Zhu Zhuqing had already sat down, gently helping her sit up, allowing her to lean against her warm and exceptionally soft embrace.
"Zhu Qing, you don't need to do this, I'm, I'm fine! I can manage on my own."
Xiao Wu's originally pale face now had a hint of blush, feeling a bit uncomfortable against the soft support. She wasn't used to it.
"Alright!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded, letting her go, her face also a bit flushed.
Ning Rongrong stood still at the bedside.
Watching the two squeezing together, a cute scene.
She looked down again at her still-budding body, feeling somewhat lost.
"Xiao Wu~ You haven't answered me yet!"
Ning Rongrong glared at them again, her tone suddenly carrying a hint of resentment.
"Ning Rongrong~ Thank you, I'm fine now!"
Xiao Wu sat up on her own, seemingly recalling something. She stared at Ning Rongrong with a direct and eager gaze.
"Phew~ That's good." Hearing her response, Ning Rongrong also breathed a sigh of relief, sitting down on the bed.
The air fell into silence for a moment.
Two pairs of eyes locked onto Ning Rongrong, unmoving.
"Huh? Why are you both looking at me like this?" Ning Rongrong looked at them strangely.
"Ning..." Xiao Wu's words stopped again, reorganizing her language.
"Rongrong, can I call you that?"
"Of course! Zhu Qing also calls me that now!"
Ning Rongrong nodded, and during Xiao Wu's unconscious time, she had become quite familiar with both Zhu Zhuqing and her.
When she took care of Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing often helped with the bedding.
Xiao Wu's eyes were full of anticipation, looking at Ning Rongrong with a somewhat elusive gaze, occasionally glancing at the soul device in her hand.
"Is Rongrong's practical test over?"
"It's over! We all passed. That Tang San was beaten into a pig's head, haha!"
Ning Rongrong nodded happily, thinking of Tang San's ridiculous appearance with a bruised and swollen face, making her want to laugh.
Xiao Wu wasn't interested in Tang San's situation at all.
She just carefully held Ning Rongrong's small hand, looking at the soul device on her wrist.
"Then, can you given me the letter?"
"Ah!?" Ning Rongrong was taken aback for a moment, suddenly withdrew her hand, covering her soul device.
Seeing Xiao Wu's expectant eyes, she reluctantly lowered her head, lightly nodding.
"Alright."
A stream of light dispersed, and a thick letter appeared in her hand, slowly handed over to Xiao Wu.
The exchange between the two women seemed like some important ritual.
Xiao Wu's face was filled with joy as she extended her small hands, pinching the corners of the letter.
"..."
Gently pulling it a couple of times, but there was no response.
She lifted her head in surprise, looking at Ning Rongrong.
At this moment, Ning Rongrong, with her head down, puffed up her cheeks, gripping the letter unwilling to let go.
"Rongrong! You let go quickly, don't ruin it!"
"I'm sorry..."
Hearing Xiao Wu's anxious voice, Ning Rongrong released her grip reluctantly.
Suddenly, two more opponents appeared, who had even known Ye Qiu earlier. She felt a bit uncomfortable in her heart.
"Uh, it's okay, I know~"
Xiao Wu held the letter in her hands, handling it gently, slowly smoothing out the wrinkles on it, muttering softly.
Ning Rongrong and Ye Qiu's relationship, from the moment she mentioned Ye Qiu, and the changes in her eyes, Xiao Wu already understood.
She understood Ning Rongrong's feelings and expressed her understanding through her actions.
She also couldn't help feeling a bit depressed...
Clearly, at the beginning, Xiao Qiu only had eyes for her!
Her eyes gradually filled with tears, and she sniffed, carefully tearing open the envelope.
The letter inside was quite thick.
After taking it out, when she was about to open it, Ning Rongrong quickly leaned over, eagerly watching her about to unfold the letter.
Behind Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, who was sitting, continued to straighten her back, her gaze fixed on the letter in her hand.
As if a guard standing by.
"Rongrong!"
Xiao Wu quickly covered the letter, looking at Ning Rongrong, displeased.
"..."
Ning Rongrong didn't speak, turned her head away, as if nothing had happened.
Swish!
Xiao Wu turned around quickly.
Behind her, Zhu Zhuqing remained motionless, still sitting upright, expressionless, staring in Ning Rongrong's direction.
Like a guard on duty.
Xiao Wu looked at her suspiciously, holding the letter to her chest, frowning slightly.
Suddenly lifting the quilt, she left the bed.
Xiao Wu, where are you going?" Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing looked at her strangely.
Snap!
Xiao Wu didn't say anything, walked into the bathroom, and closed the door without looking back.
Watching Xiao Wu disappear before her eyes.
Ning Rongrong, whose curiosity was not satisfied, felt a bit frustrated. She really wanted to know what Ye Qiu would say to Xiao Wu.
She had thought about sneaking a peek, but she didn't dare...
If Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu found out, it would be terrible!
Zhu Zhuqing, on the side, didn't show much expression.
She just felt a bit regretful.
After Xiao Wu entered, she kept staring at Ning Rongrong.
There was some expectation in her eyes.
Ning Rongrong noticed her gaze.
Looking at her strangely.
"Zhuqing, why are you staring at me like that?"
Zhu Zhuqing still didn't speak, continuing to maintain eye contact.
...
After staring at each other for a long time, there was still no movement.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyebrows slowly raised, and there seemed to be a sense of loss and coldness in her eyes.
"Zhuqing? Are you okay?"
Ning Rongrong felt uncomfortable being stared at, cautiously probing.
"Nothing!"
The voice was cold, she turned her head away, ignoring her.
She got up and went back to her own bed, continuing to pack her things.
But the chill in her body became even colder.
Her movements were absent-minded.
Her throat was a bit sore, as if something was stuck, feeling a bit unbalanced.
Why? Why didn't that guy write a letter to herself?!
Did he forget about her?
But Ning Rongrong clearly said he couldn't forget about her!
"Darn Ye Qiu! If you dare to forget about me, I won't spare you!"
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were a bit hot, her delicate fists slowly clenched, filled with resentment.
...
In the bathroom.
Xiao Wu slowly unfolded the letter in her hand.
It was thick, with many words and a long story.
Normally, she had no patience for such things, but now she read it slowly, word by word.
The handwriting varied.
Ye Qiu added a few strokes almost every month, sharing some interesting things with her.
Looking at this diary-like letter, Xiao Wu didn't find it boring at all.
Occasionally, she could see a few love sentences written by Ye Qiu.
Although they were simple phrases like "I miss you," they still made her feel satisfied.
A face that was both crying and smiling, filled with sweetness and bitterness.
In the middle, it seemed that a few pages were missing. Xiao Wu knew that it was related to Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.
Ye Qiu said that he would talk to her about these things in person.
At the end of the letter, the handwriting was fresh.
There were only two short words, but they were enough to make her dreamy.
"Well, Xiao Wu will wait for you forever!"
...
Outside.
Ning Rongrong was leaning against the bathroom door, listening. Unfortunately, she couldn't hear any sound, so she had to give up.
Walking around aimlessly.
Looking at Zhu Zhuqing by the bed, who was absent-mindedly holding a piece of clothing and fidgeting.
Feeling a bit bored, Ning Rongrong jumped over to her.
"Zhuqing, aren't you curious about what's written in the letter?"
"Not curious!"
Zhu Zhuqing responded calmly, but her eyes unconsciously glanced towards the direction of the bathroom.
"No! You must be curious. I saw you just now; you also wanted to sneak a peek!"
Ning Rongrong's voice, under Zhu Zhuqing's cold gaze, came to a halt.
After a moment of silence, Zhu Zhuqing still inquired about some things about Ye Qiu.
"Rongrong, do you know what his current cultivation level is?"
"Of course! Talking about this, I also helped with his third spirit ring! Hmm... he should be close to breaking through level 32 now?"
Speaking of which, Ning Rongrong happily turned around, and her green dress spread out like a blooming flower.
"I also helped with his third spirit ring! He kissed me for a very long time that evening..."
Thinking about it, her face had a bit of a blush.
"Level 32..."
Zhu Zhuqing whispered, then looked at Ning Rongrong who was still smiling.
Without receiving a letter, she could only feel a sour taste. She felt that Ning Rongrong's current appearance was somewhat annoying.
For a moment, malice arose in her heart, and her lips lightly opened.
"It's nothing serious. I also helped with his second spirit ring!"
"...!" Ning Rongrong's smiling face suddenly stiffened, looking at her in a daze.
"Zhuqing, what do you mean by that?"
Ning Rongrong stared with wide eyes. She kindly informed her about Ye Qiu's situation, and she actually dared to provoke her!
It was really too much!
"Zhu Zhuqing! What do you mean?"
Ning Rongrong stared with wide eyes, feeling irritated after telling her about Ye Qiu's situation.
"Nothing serious, just said it casually!" Zhu Zhuqing responded indifferently, turning her head to continue packing her things.
"Aren't you going to eat?"
Ning Rongrong was about to speak, but Zhu Zhuqing didn't give her a chance, turning around again to look at her.
"Oh! Right! By the way, Ye Qiu helped me hunt for my second spirit ring, a thousand years old!"
Finally adding a few more characters, Zhu Zhuqing calmly glanced at Ning Rongrong and stopped talking.
But Ning Rongrong's expression changed.
What kind of casual remark was that? It was so obvious!
She finally understood. This person was showing off to her and intentionally provoking her!
Zhu Zhuqing's face blushed.
"Xiao Wu, let me help you with the bed!"
Seeing Xiao Wu still standing at the bathroom door, unsure of the situation, Zhu Zhuqing stood up and walked over.
Ye Qiu asked her to protect Xiao Wu, so she naturally had to do her best.
On the other hand, upon hearing her words, Ning Rongrong immediately made a teeth-gritting sound.
She was just scolding her a moment ago, and now she had to help Xiao Wu with the bed. This was clearly differential treatment!
"Ah! Zhu Zhuqing!! Do you think I'm easy to bully!?"
"When did I bully you?"
"You bullied me just now, deliberately provoking me!" Ning Rongrong stood on the bed, her face turning red with anger.
"Zhuqing?"
Xiao Wu looked at Zhu Zhuqing strangely.
"I-I didn't mean to just now! I'm sorry."
Zhu Zhuqing, being stared at by Xiao Wu, blushed even more.
She apologized directly to Ning Rongrong.
If they were to investigate further and find out that she deliberately provoked her because she hadn't received a letter, causing jealousy, it would be even more embarrassing!
"Sorry? Just saying sorry means nothing!"
Hearing her apology, Ning Rongrong also froze for a moment.
Then her eyes rolled, and a hint of cunning flashed in them.
She directly jumped in front of Zhu Zhuqing, staring at her with determination.
"Rongrong, forget it, okay?"
Xiao Wu quickly stood between the two.
"What do you want?"
Zhu Zhuqing frowned. It was indeed her momentary impulse. As long as Ning Rongrong didn't go too far, she could accommodate her.
"I want you to tell me and Xiao Wu! What have you been eating when you were growing up!!"
"Ah~ Ning Rongrong!"
As soon as the words fell, Ning Rongrong crossed Xiao Wu, extending her An Luoshan-like claws, attacking Zhu Zhuqing.
She was not only curious about the contents of Xiao Wu's letter but also curious about Zhu Zhuqing's growth!
Now that she had the opportunity, she had to seize it!
Hearing Ning Rongrong's request, Xiao Wu also stood still, letting her pounce on Zhu Zhuqing.
"Rongrong, I-I don't want this."
Xiao Wu's face turned red.
Although she said she didn't want it, her eyes were fixed on Zhu Zhuqing, with a hint of envy.
"Ying~! Ning Rongrong! Let go of me, you're hurting me!"
Zhu Zhuqing's embarrassed voice came.
...
In the evening of Tian Dou City, with a touch of twilight.
At this moment, Ye Qiu was wandering through various ore shops with Little Blue, purchasing one of the raw materials for making black gunpowder—saltpeter!
As for sulfur, he already had it in the Yin Yang eyes; as for charcoal, there was no need to mention it.
"Big brother, why are you buying so many stones?"
"As a gift for someone!" Ye Qiu held Little Blue's hand, weaving through the crowd.
"A gift!?" Little Blue looked at him curiously, holding onto Ye Qiu's arm.
"Alright, you better obediently eat your candied hawthorn!"
Ye Qiu didn't want to explain too much.
He pulled her and walked towards the direction of the Crown Prince's mansion.
"Big brother, the direction is wrong. We should go pick up Sister Yan Yan!"
"Right, I'll take you for a big meal first!"
To give this big gift, he needed some mortar tubes. He had to ask Xue Qinghe for help.
