Ling Bufei jumped up, but he forgot that he still had oil on his hands. The hand that was pressing on the table leg slipped and his head hit it hard.
"Ah!" He groaned, and the books on his body became even more messy.
Bai Mengjin was quite angry at first, but when he did this, he actually laughed.
She cast a cleansing spell to wipe away all the oil on his body, and then pulled him out of the pile of books.
"Thank... thank you." Ling Bufei whispered.
The two of them packed up their books, and Bai Mengjin asked, "Want to chat?"
Ling Bu couldn't avoid it, so he could only muster up the courage: "...I'm sorry, I didn't know what my uncle meant by combined cultivation. If I had known better, I wouldn't have been so hasty..."
Seeing the remorse on his face, Bai Mengjin nodded: "I blame you for ruining your innocence, but I haven't told you to be mentally prepared, right?"
"No, no, no, no," Ling Bufei hurriedly denied, "It's my fault. Such an important thing happened inexplicably...it should have happened anyway...it's my fault anyway."
He lowered his head, as if he was ready to beat or scold you.
Bai Mengjin laughed angrily: "So you just left me alone? Is this your way of expressing your apology? Isn't it too strange, Master Ling? I almost thought the wrong person was me."
After a pause, she said: "That's the right thing to say. I know what happened, but I didn't tell you, causing you to lose your innocence without knowing. I'm really sorry."
When she said this, Ling Bufei was so panicked that he quickly explained: "No, no, I was thinking about how to tell you, but I didn't dare to see you until I figured it out..."
The more he explained, the more he looked like a heartless man. Finally, Ling Bufei gave up and said dejectedly: "Well, it's all my fault. I only thought about myself and didn't consider you... I'm sorry."
"Have you figured it out now?"
Ling Bufei glanced at her secretly and saw that she was not angry. He felt a little more relaxed and said honestly: "I haven't thought about it yet... Our marriage was finalized under those circumstances. Strictly speaking, it doesn't count. I originally thought , I will explain it clearly later when I am successful in cultivation..."
"Why doesn't it count?" Bai Mengjin interrupted him.
Ling Bufei was confused: "That can't count, right? You said you wanted to be in charge of the Wuji Sect, so...even if we have this title, it is to make you the rightful person in power. Being a real couple is another matter, it can't be like this whatever?"
Bai Mengjin realized that he thought so. Thinking about it carefully, it wasn't wrong. It was indeed an exchange of interests at the beginning, and she never expressed her intention to be a real couple.
"You're right, I didn't think it through. My uncle didn't know the inside story, so of course he let us practice together. But I know, I should make it clear to you."
Ling Bufei sounded a little uncomfortable and said hurriedly: "No, I have no objection to joint cultivation. What I mean is that I hope to develop further relationships in a more serious situation..."
The more anxious he became, the harder it was to explain, and he was sweating.
Bai Mengjin laughed instead and said proactively: "I just want to ask you, do you regret it?"
Ling Bufei stopped and replied sincerely: "I don't regret it."
Bai Mengjin nodded: "That's enough, there's no need to explain the rest."
In short, it was a move too fast. Although they are together every day, their feelings are not there yet. We had never been in love, nor had we committed to each other for life. Suddenly we jumped to dual cultivation, so naturally we were not used to it.
Ling Bufei breathed a sigh of relief, but felt uneasy in his heart. He always felt that she might have misunderstood: "Meng Jin..."
Bai Mengjin raised his hand to stop him: "That day was actually an accident. It happened only when the consciousness merged. Under normal circumstances, we don't have to do that."
"ha?"
"So you don't have to worry. If you have experience next time and know how to measure it, accidents like this won't happen again."
He's not worried about this happening, he actually quite wants to...
Ling Bufei felt that something was wrong, and it seemed that the more he explained, the worse it got.
But Bai Mengjin also said: "Okay, you don't have to hide from me anymore. Let's put this matter aside for now. It was an accident in the first place, so just rule it out."
"no……"
"Take your time!" She also smiled, "We still have a long time, right?"
That's okay. Ling Bufei responded: "Yes."
They still have hundreds and thousands of years to live in the future. If they want to be a real couple, it won't happen overnight. He hopes that she will be with him because of love, not because of exchange of interests, or because of habit.
At this point, Ling Bufei had little confidence. She was always so at ease with him, and she wasn't particularly close to him. He didn't want to use such an accident to kidnap her, but wanted to let her and her naturally develop into a happy relationship.
He thought for a while and finally added: "Do you really understand what I mean?"
Bai Mengjin replied with a smile: "I understand, you just think it's too fast! Our relationship is not enough. It won't be too late to become a real couple after we have a deeper foundation."
"Yes." Ling Bufei was finally able to relax and laugh. That's how he felt that she didn't regard him as her lover yet, and going any further too soon would make him uneasy.
"Have you made it clear?" Bai Mengjin asked, "We can continue the joint practice in a few days, okay?"
Ling Bufei nodded: "Okay."
"Get some rest! Stop leaving early and coming back late. Senior Sister Ji has even noticed something is wrong."
Ling Bufei admitted his mistake honestly: "I was stupid. I won't do it tomorrow."
Bai Mengjin smiled at the end, closed the doors of the two rooms, and listened to him taking care of himself briskly. After a while, he calmed down, thinking he was obedient and went to rest.
She walked to the window and found a hard lump in her hand. She realized that when she was cleaning it up, she had passed the seal on his desk.
She threw the seal on the tea table, snorted, and there was no longer any smile on her face.
What's too fast? I just like it a little but not that much! Man, hum!
——
The next day, Ji Xingge came out and saw Baili Xu and Ling Bufei practicing swordsmanship, and felt inexplicably comfortable.
The world is finally back to normal.
"Hey, Miss Ji, are you up?" Ling Bufei asked, "What are you having for breakfast today?"
"I'm sorry, I thought you weren't here and I didn't prepare anything for you!" Ji Xingge said sincerely.
Ling Bufei took a look, and sure enough there were three breakfasts on the table. She, Bai Mengjin, and Chunhe were just right.
He said angrily: "You haven't been here for just a few days? You stayed in my house and didn't even prepare breakfast. You are so insincere!"
"Who told you not to tell me? How did I know you were here today?" Ji Xingge didn't like him.
The two were arguing when Bai Mengjin came out.
Ji Xingge hurriedly said: "Junior Sister Bai, come quickly, the breakfast prepared for you will be eaten by Ling Bufei!"
Bai Mengjin paused for a moment and said with a smile: "Let him eat it! I have made an appointment with Master Xin's uncle to help her refine a pill. I may not be there for a few days."
"ha?"
Bai Mengjin got on the flying boat: "Let's go now, see you later."
"..." Looking at her back, Ji Xingge felt bad.
Something bad happened, now she has become Junior Sister Bai abnormally.
Even a simple plot may be stuck for a whole day... I'll go to bed first, that's it for today.
