"So powerful. It seems you are more useful than I thought..."
Xue Chu raised her hand and pinched the other person's hot earlobe. Without waiting for a reply, she pinched the back of Rong Xu's neck with a smile again.
"but--"
"I never want anything disobedient."
As soon as the words fell, the gentle expression on Xuechu's face disappeared completely. He snatched the cub from his arms and smashed it against the wall next to him very quickly.
With a "boom", a big hole was smashed through the wall not far away.
"What..." Rong Xu, who didn't understand the situation, struggled to dig himself out of the big hole. After thinking about what he heard, Rong Xu froze like a dried sculpture.
"No, disobedient?" He pointed at himself, and his empty eyes suddenly turned into decorations, and he struggled to move forward, "No, I protected him well..."
Xuechu took a step back coldly, "As I said, I have a bad temper."
She glanced at Rong Xu, who was staring at her persistently, and covered the ears of the sleeping cub with her fingers, as if smiling, "Now, Mr. Good-for-nothing, who can't even learn to be obedient, can get out."
"Huh?" Yu Laijia, who had long been awakened by the silence, opened his eyes.
The little tail tried its best to get up, and its golden eyes were fixed on Rong Xu who was about to be left behind. He suddenly patted Xue Chu who was holding him in a comforting way, "Hmm? Hmm?"
Xue Chu, who had already figured out what the little guy meant, was startled, her intuition seemed not quite right.
They had only been together for less than half a day, so how could they have such a deep friendship?
unless……
"Want to leave quickly, okay," thinking of this, Xue Chu simply pretended not to see anything, squeezed the short hand that she tried to stretch, and speeded up to leave.
"Well, well, well, well—"
Half of Yulaika's body was held in his arms. When he saw this situation, his struggling movements became more intense.
"Do you know what you are doing?" As he wished, Xuechu stopped. She turned her head slightly and glanced at Rong Xu, who was following suit. Her tone suddenly dropped, "I want it so much. he?"
She was still looking at Rong Xu, but she spoke to the little guy in her arms.
And as expected, no reply was received.
As if frightened by Xue Chu's suddenly cold mood, You Laijia, who was still noisy at first, obediently stopped his paws and stopped thrashing back. Even his pupils dimmed quietly.
Xue Chu glanced at the arm that was completely surrounded by the little tail, her eyes became deeper and deeper, "Do you have any other comments?"
"Well……"
Yulaika turned his back and dug into his arms, and his voice started to click.
[It is detected that Yulaika's mood continues to decline, please host to take measures! 】
[It has been detected that Yulaika is extremely uneasy, please pay attention to the host! 】
【detected……】
"Okay," Xue Chu jumped to the system page in front of her without even looking at it. She dug out the little dragon that refused to raise its head in a few clicks. "What a troublesome little thing."
The seemingly true and false comment fell on Xiaolong's ears. Before he could make any "eyes full of water" response to it, Xuechu opened his mouth again, "Forget it."
She pulled the cub's soft cheek as if to compromise, paused, and without even looking at the person who was about to approach her, she said calmly: "If you want to keep someone, just say it yourself."
"Well……?"
"This won't work," Xue Chu shook his head, glanced at the progress bar of "Inheriting Memory", and insisted again, "You have to say it yourself, you know, don't think about getting through it again."
After saying that, Xuechu grabbed the little guy's raised collar and controlled Yu Laijia, who subconsciously wanted to hide in his arms.
Xiaolong, whose eyes were watery as fate strangled the back of his neck, immediately felt at ease.
Ah, that's kind of cute.
Xuechu watched with satisfaction as Yu Laijia began to rack his brains, and felt a little want to laugh again.
"I, I, want...him to stay..."
It was a very awkward sentence to say, but congratulations, Yu Laijia finally said it.
Rong Xu was obviously not interested in the cub talking. His empty eyes were always staring at Xue Chu, who had never given him a look. Only when she looked over did he seem to have a soul. Showing the same emotions.
"Xuechu..."
"Xuechu..."
"Xuechu..."
Rong Xu said these two words in an extremely soft tone. It wasn't until the person he was calling finally couldn't help but look over that he held Yu Laika's stretched out hand as if he had just woken up from a dream.
I feel like going back on my word...
Xue Chu frowned and looked at the abnormal person in front of her. She suppressed the idea of slapping the person away and broke the clasped hands with a cold face, "If there is a next time-"
"No, it won't happen again." Sensing the loosening of his attitude, Rong Xu instantly felt confident again, "I will definitely listen to Xue Chu's words."
"..."
No, it feels like there will definitely be a second time.
Xue Chu pushed away someone who was approaching him in disgust, casually stepped on the prisoner who had just struggled to wake up again, and went back to the casino.
I originally planned to give Xi Ning some time to slow down... but now that Rong Xu has found him, I'll just speed up the process.
Xue Chu thought of this, glanced at the person who fainted again and couldn't get up, just casually threw away the fox fire and stopped caring.
Xining, who had regained his energy, was obviously very welcoming to Xuechu who had returned. Seeing that the petite and frail woman seemed to have noticed something from recent events, she directly left the provided accommodation behind her. far away.
"My area is still empty, and no one usually bothers me."
The owner of the gambling house made the invitation gently. She certainly didn't think that her little thoughts could be hidden from Xue Chu, so she was not surprised when she saw the latter's expression unchanged.
"As Miss Xue's partner, I am happy to provide you with all the help you want," Xining said bluntly.
Two seconds later, she walked down from the height, bent down towards the cold-faced woman, and gently and reverently took the other's hand hanging by her side.
The thin golden vines slowly fell on the open palm. Xue Chu lowered his eyes and suddenly smiled when he remembered the words he had heard.
"It seems you are not as powerless as he said."
This kind of power is much purer than that vine that breaks easily.
Xining also chuckled and did not answer.
She still kept her knees bent and stared at the scene in front of her. It wasn't until the golden vines dissipated in the wind that she raised her eyes to look at Xuechu.
"This is the oldest etiquette of the God-Serving Clan," she explained calmly, "Praying for the source of one's own power and swearing allegiance to it."
Xining paused and looked at the hem of her skirt that was trailing to the floor, as if she was feeling sad, but also as if she was truly relieved.
"This is all the sincerity I can show."
