086 Thick-skinned Master
Qin Ren had originally thought that when he woke up the next day, the Spirit Beast at home would be stamping her feet in anger.
Because although Qin Ren had often used the method of stuffing a pillow to escape from the bed before, this time he had abandoned the High Immortal to sleep with “another woman.”
Qin Ren judged that this would at least warrant a bottle of Coke as blackmail, right?
But it didn’t.
After getting up the next day, Luo Yao had already filled the washbasin with hot water, was holding a washcloth, and was sitting on the small stool in the bathroom, waiting for Qin Ren to come and wash her face. As for Qin Ren sneaking out of Gu Qing’s room, she acted as if she hadn’t seen it.
“Yao…” Qin Ren folded the washcloth.
“Mhm~” Luo Yao lifted her rosy little face, well-behaved.jpg.
“Last night… did you sleep well?”
“Very well, da~”
It seemed to be not just good. Before her face was even washed, Luo Yao happily stretched out her slender arms, wanting to hug Qin Ren and act cute.
“Don’t, don’t. Wait… wait a minute…”
The little girl was fragrant and soft, rubbing against him. It had only been a short while since Qin Ren had gotten up, and certain parts were still in a semi-activated state. Her rubbing made him blush a little. He slightly arched his body, waved the washcloth in one hand, and pushed her away with the other.
“It’s not washed yet. Don’t you want your face?”
“I don’t. I want you~”
“…”
Luo Yao was a little clingy today. Qin Ren touched her forehead. It wasn’t hot.
Speaking of which, whether she’s a Spirit Beast or a Pixiu, this kid is ultimately not human. Could it be… she’s in heat?
“Did you have a sweet dream and haven’t woken up yet?” Qin Ren pinched her little nose.
“Mhm.”
Luo Yao nodded.
“No, I didn’t.”
But then she shook her head, and her eyelids drooped shyly, her toes wiggling restlessly in her slippers.
…
The little girl had actually had a dream, but last night’s was a little different from the previous ones.
In the dream, there were Qin Ren and Luo Yao, and a vast, fluffy grassland. A large blanket was spread on the grassland, big enough for two people to roll around on.
As for the specific content of the dream, even Luo Yao herself was a little fuzzy.
Anyway, when she woke up, her little tummy was warm, and a little below her little tummy was also a little warm. It was the first time Luo Yao had had this strange and strange feeling, so she couldn’t help but blush when she mentioned the dream.
…
And it was the kind that happened from time to time. She would think for a while and then blush. After Qin Ren had finished making breakfast and brought it to the table, Gu Qing couldn’t help but be curious.
“Luo Yao, what’s wrong with you?”
Luo Yao licked the milk from the corner of her mouth, looked up at Gu Qing, and stirred the white sugar she had added to her milk with a small spoon.
“Qin Ren… Qin Ren, he…”
“?”
Gu Qing looked at her little brother in confusion. Her little brother also didn’t know what it had to do with him. He pursed his lips and drank his milk, assuming this kid was just in heat.
“Qin Ren…”
The white sugar melted bit by bit, like a little girl’s shy heart.
“…He kissed me last night~”
“Pfft—”
Qin Ren was numb. He wiped the milk from the corner of his mouth. Faced with his sister’s shocked and disgusted gaze, he first had to emphasize a matter of principle.
“Jie, she’s three hundred and twenty-one years old. Even converted to our age, she’s already legal.”
“This eminence is eighteen,” Luo Yao chimed in while eating a slice of mantou.
“So…”
Gu Qing crossed her arms.
“…Is that your reason for making a move on her?”
“What are you talking about? What do you mean, ‘make a move’…”
“Made a move with your mouth.”
“No, Qing’er. The kiss she’s talking about is not the kind you’re imagining. I was just playing around last night.”
“Pah! And you say ‘just playing around’… how could you say that!”
What a scumbag little brother.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. It was only today that Gu Qing discovered that Qin Ren was actually not honest at all.
To be honest, Gu Qing’s impression of Luo Yao had always been quite good. She was cute and occasionally brainless. She had also heard about her being Yu Ling’er’s mount and running errands everywhere. She felt that the little girl was quite pitiful and couldn’t let her fall into the clutches of her pervert little brother so quickly and foolishly.
“Luo Yao, come to your older sister.” Actually, when Gu Qing smiled, she didn’t seem cold at all. She looked gentle and easygoing.
“What do you want…” Luo Yao sat over with a slice of mantou in her mouth, but she was a little wary.
“Luo Yao, let’s unite.”
Gu Qing had slept comfortably with Qin Ren last night, so her mood was actually not bad. She held Luo Yao’s little hand.
“Let’s resist the pervert at home together, okay?”
“Resist…”
Luo Yao glanced at the “pervert” opposite her, who had a nonchalant expression and had started to slack off. She thought for a moment and then asked Gu Qing in return.
“Did Qin Ren also kiss you last night?”
“Huh?”
Gu Qing was stunned. She looked up and saw her scumbag little brother holding back a laugh with schadenfreude. She glared at him, and her own face turned slightly red. She looked at Luo Yao and said in a low voice.
“Of course not. He… he’s my little brother…”
“Oh.”
Then Luo Yao knew. Gu Qing was obviously jealous of the High Immortal.
She wouldn’t resist Qin Ren. She was so likable. It couldn’t be helped if Qin Ren was a little bit of a pervert.
———————
Gu Qing and Luo Yao were eating breakfast at the table. On the balcony, classmate Yu Yourong’s morning exercises were not over yet.
Qin Ren cut two small bowls of apple cubes, stuck toothpicks in them, and brought them over along with two glasses of milk. A simple snake-clan-exclusive meal, two servings. One was placed by Yu Yourong’s yoga mat, and the other was placed in front of Yu Ling’er, who had been sitting at the computer desk since early in the morning.
The plan for the day is made in the morning. The disciple was doing her morning exercises, while the master was playing a game.
“Master Yu, what time did you get up?”
“Not long ago. I think it was around six, seven, or eight.”
“…”
Eight o’clock was fine. If she had gotten up at six and sat at the computer, Qin Ren felt that he might have underestimated Yu Ling’er’s enthusiasm for computers.
Or rather, her enthusiasm for games.
From yesterday’s teaching, Yu Ling’er had already memorized the process of automatically logging into League of Legends and starting a game. At this moment, she was concentrating and operating with a startle.
“Qin Ren, look, look. I’m fighting a group of them by myself.”
She couldn’t be bothered with breakfast. She happily used Malphite to perform an ultimate to clear a wave of minions. Five minions died, but only two gave gold.
“Is this called a pentakill?” Master Yu’s beautiful eyes sparkled. She held her jade-like hands in front of her chest and looked at Qin Ren expectantly.
“Yes. As expected of Master Yu.”
Qin Ren gave a thumbs-up, picked up a small piece of apple with a toothpick, and put it in her mouth.
“But eat first. It’s not too late to play after you’ve eaten.”
“Mhm, mhm. Then I’ll quit.”
Yu Ling’er was in a custom game, so she could quit at will. She ate the apple in her mouth and answered vaguely, not noticing that her disciple outside was stealing sullen glances at her from the corner of her eye.
…
The dignified Sect Master of the Flowing Cloud Sect, when did she need to be fed…
Thick-skinned master, so shameless…
