Chapter 162: Waking up from a dream and holding onto the scent of cakes

Hearing Qi Ningzhu say that, Bai Yunshu suddenly laughed.

"Hahahahahahaha, yes, I am a coward, and I am useless... I am completely useless, and I, your master, can't change anything..."

She began to feel sorry for herself, and Qi Ningzhu just looked at her coldly.

Fate plays tricks on us, it is fate after all.

"You should know deep down that I like you because I was forced to, because of that Gu!"

"Even if your love is fake, I will still be attracted to you, and my heart will be moved. Does it matter if it's real or fake? As long as you are by my side, in my palm, then it's real! Even if my heart is not here, my body is still real!"

Bai Yunshu spoke in a light tone, with a sense of rightness and composure.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll hate you?"

Qi Ningzhu suddenly asked her that, Bai Yunshu walked forward and gently took her in his arms.

"Afraid? Of course I'm not afraid. Hasn't my little disciple always hated me? I know. Master isn't afraid of your hatred. Master is afraid of you leaving. I'm willing to die in your hands. At least this way, you'll always have me in your heart and remember me..."

She kept muttering bit by bit, as if possessed by a demon. Although she looked like the cool moonlight, her whole body exuded a frightening cruelty.

She kept talking about her innermost thoughts in her sleep, and Qi Ningzhu, who was held by her, noticed that something seemed to be wrong with her.

Bai Yunshu hugged her tighter and tighter, and she almost couldn't breathe.

What was she doing? What on earth was she dreaming about? Why was she exerting so much force?

"Master...Master, what's wrong with you?"

She opened her eyes, raised her hand, and stroked Bai Yunshu's furrowed brow.

Logically speaking, given Bai Yunshu's abilities, shouldn't all his dreams be good ones? Why is he still frowning?

As if sensing her comfort, Bai Yunshu suddenly opened his eyes and met her gaze.

Feeling the warm hand on his forehead, Bai Yunshu pulled it over and gently stroked his face.

"Ningzhu, you must always remember your master and never forget him."

Qi Ningzhu nodded strangely.

"Okay, I won't forget."

If you want to forget, you should forget the five hundred years in the Demon Abyss. The memory of Bai Yunshu is too deep, how can you forget it just like that?

After getting her accurate answer, Bai Yunshu smiled and suppressed the darkness that was about to spread in her palm.

"It's good that you won't forget me. Otherwise, even if it hurts, I won't let you forget me. I will cling to you, forever, deep in your body, deep in your memory, forever and ever, unkillable, indelible..."

Qi Ningzhu couldn't help but shiver, and the hand that was stroking her face shook.

If she was really crazy, what was Bai Yunshu afraid of? Was she afraid that she would forget her? But how could she forget?

"Master, no, I won't forget. Don't worry, Master."

Qi Ningzhu swallowed and gave her a positive answer again.

Bai Yunshu nodded, patted her back and said, "Go to sleep, Master is fine. We will go on the next mission tomorrow. Master will protect you."

Qi Ningzhu felt her embrace and thought to himself that everything was fine.

She nodded, closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

I've become my original self again, which seems not bad. Familiar names, familiar words, but the way we get along with each other is completely different from before.

More intimate, more joyful, but also worrying.

Qi Ningzhu discovered that his cultivation seemed to have improved a lot recently, and the effects of his previous incomplete soul had been largely healed.

The next morning, when Qi Ningzhu woke up, she found that the person who had been hugging her last night was gone.

She was wondering, and when she wanted to get up from the bed, she found... there was something extra on her wrist.

The bracelet actually grew into a red rope, which tied her to the head of the bed.

Qi Ningzhu tried to move, but found that he couldn't break free, and he couldn't untie it using any magic.

What the hell is Bai Yunshu doing? Why is he tying her up in the inn? Where is she?

Would it be like this every morning after waking up? Was he really that afraid that she would run away? But she didn't have that thought in mind right now. She just wanted to be by her side.

Although the hatred is still there and the truth of that year is still unknown, I am tempted in my heart and still want to trust her again.

It's not a Gu, it's just that I like her from the bottom of my heart, just like how happy I was when she accepted me as her disciple.

How could this red string be so strong? She had tried so many ways to untie it, but she couldn't. If she had known this red string had this function, she would never have worn it. Now, she couldn't even take it off.

While she was thinking, the door of the inn was opened and Bai Yunshu came back.

Bai Yunshu held the steaming pastry in his hand and held it directly in front of her.

"Xiao Ningzhu, look, your favorite cakes from that shop. I bought them specially for you this morning!"

Bai Yunshu has some self-awareness about his own skills, so he decides not to torture his little disciple and be nicer to her.

"Thank you, Master! But what are you doing..."

Qi Ningzhu raised her wrist helplessly and shook the red rope on it.

"Master is afraid you'll get up and run around."

Bai Yunshu waved his hand, and the red rope disappeared, restoring her freedom.

Qi Ningzhu was free, touched the red rope on it, then stood up and took the pastries that Bai Yunshu bought for her.

"I'm already an adult, why am I running around? I'll wait for Master right here. When did Master go to buy it so early?"

She didn't think too much about it, but she was a little angry. The behavior of tying her up was too strange, which made her feel a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Bai Yunshu smiled without saying a word. He came over and touched her head, then sat next to her.

"Eat it."

Qi Ningzhu looked at the pile of delicious food and gestured to Bai Yunshu to eat too.

"Master bought it, so Master will eat it too."

Bai Yunshu wanted to tease her.

"Then feed me, my little disciple."

Seeing her expectant eyes, Qi Ningzhu had no choice but to take a piece and put it to her mouth.

She was quite skilled at feeding, after all, she had fed Bai Yunshu a long time ago, but...

Everything she ate was collected from all over the sect.

She had ruined the bamboo glutinous rice made from the bamboos cut down from Musheng Peak, the barbecue meal made from the small fish caught in the river of Changjue Peak, and the lotus pond of Elder Geng from Guchun Peak.

Of course, it was all because of her master.

However, when she was caught by Bai Yunshu, she would take the initiative to invite Bai Yunshu to eat with her.

At the beginning, Bai Yunshu might be shy. He would frown slightly, sigh, turn around and go back to the house to find the spirit stone to apologize.

Later, after she kept pestering him and forced things into her hands or mouth, Bai Yunshu wavered.

Bai Yunshu would taste a little bit and nod slightly, neither saying it was delicious nor that it was bad.

Even so, she was very satisfied. After all, if someone caused trouble for her, she could say that her master had also eaten it and let her master come forward to solve the problem.

She was making all sorts of calculations and even confessed everything to Bai Yunshu.

"Master, I really can't stop eating. What should I do?"
