Is this true or false?
Ren Suo took a sniff, and thanks to the bonuses of being a third-level cultivator, the evolution of a cat, and having deep insights into the world, he actually smelled a very slight fragrance.
Ren Suo had never come into contact with perfume before, and could only describe it as "smells good", "natural and elegant", and "like four-way Titan burning". No wonder he didn't realize that he quite liked this smell.
Dong Chengling came in naturally and closed the door. He put the big cake box in his hand on the table, looked around the house, then sat on the sofa, put his hands on his dark blue jeans, and looked straight at Ren Suo.
Dong Chengling now has her own style of dressing. Being a practical person, she is naturally incompatible with skirts. Although the few times she wore a skirt were indeed very flashy and gorgeous, she finally gave up this troublesome clothing that required her to wear safety pants. Moreover, as a teacher, she must lead by example.
Therefore, she usually wore jeans, a plain brown slim-fitting shirt, and a dark vest. She looked decent and generous, and also highlighted the perfect body curves of a fourth-turn female monk...
Um?
Ren Suo suddenly felt strange. Why would he subconsciously comment on a girl's dressing style? He probably had no other adjectives besides "good-looking", "okay", and "not good-looking". For men, he would use exclusive adjectives such as "stupid as hell", "show-off", "idiot", "you'll be beaten nine times if you go out to buy a pack of cigarettes", "you'll be questioned by the police as soon as you go out", "you can rely on rich women to support your family and get rich", etc...
Why do I have so many compliments when I look at Dong Chengling now? Does the ability to appreciate and praise continue to improve as one stays single for longer?
Clearing his mind of other thoughts, Ren Suo sat down and said, "What's the matter with you coming here so late?"
Dong Chengling didn't say anything, but just wrinkled her nose and sniffed, then stared at Ren Suo with her clear and transparent big eyes blinking, her pupils were like water, her little mouth was slightly pouted, and she looked a little angry, which made Ren Suo stunned.
Dong Chengling, who always appeared calm and composed, expressed his unhappiness in such a silent way. This was the first time that Ren Suo had seen this. He immediately felt as if he had committed some unforgivable crime and felt a little nervous.
There was only one reason why Dong Chengling was unhappy, that was that he had a strange smell. Ren Suo did not give a direct answer, but tried to get away with it. She did not give Ren Suo such an opportunity and did not say a word to stop the conversation.
Ren Suo avoided Dong Chengling's sight and saw the closed door of the guest room. He thought about what he had just promised to do to keep it secret for Qiao Muyi.
Although Dong Chengling would never gossip about others, he would not suspect Qiao Muyi of any ill intentions towards Ren Suo just because Qiao Muyi appeared here.
But Qiao Muyi didn't come out, which meant that she still hoped Ren Suo would continue to keep it secret.
But Ren Suo wouldn't lie...
Ren Suo thought about it, first used "Return of the Demon King" + "A Thousand Miles Away" to think for a few seconds, and immediately came up with a countermeasure, using "Return of the Demon King" + "Enchanting Sound and Fantasy Fragrance".
After a moment, Dong Chengling's fair and smooth face turned red. She blinked and said softly, "This fragrance..."
Ren Suo sniffed himself and smelled a scent that was similar to the perfume he had just smelled, but not too strong. It was a bit like the cozy smell of a quilt that had been hung out to dry, a smell so cozy that he wanted to roll around on it.
"I've been researching a spell lately, and my body might have other smells." Ren Suo said frankly without lying.
Dong Chengling blushed and hummed, and the matter was over. She went over and opened the big box, revealing the birthday cake inside.
Dong Chengling just waved his hand, and the candles on the birthday cake lit up instantly, leaving Ren Suo dumbfounded. This was definitely not a fire spell, but a derivative application of the "Spirit Shock Spell", which used high-speed vibrations to ignite the candle filaments!
Qiao Muyi made a brilliant appearance first, and Dong Chengling made fire with his bare hands later, which made Ren Suo deeply ashamed of his poor ability to pretend. His control over magic was very average, and he really couldn't use magic to apply it easily in his daily pretending.
"Happy birthday, Suo." Dong Chengling said, "I hope my sudden arrival did not cause any trouble to you."
"No, no." Ren Suo shook his head quickly. "On the contrary, I didn't plan to celebrate, and I didn't prepare any party. I didn't know how to entertain you when you came here specially... Thank you, Cheng Ling, you are so kind."
I have to remember one more person’s birthday later…
Dong Chengling suddenly covered her mouth and looked at Ren Suo with complicated eyes: "...Can you say it again?"
"What?"
"One last word."
Ren Suo blinked: "...Cheng Ling, you are so nice?"
Dong Chengling took a deep breath, pushed the birthday cake over, and said, "Blow out the candles and make a wish."
Ren Suo casually asked, "Do you also make a wish by blowing the wish and waiting for 10 seconds?"
"What do you mean wait 10 seconds?" Dong Chengling was a little confused.
Ren Suo repeated the way of making a wish that Qiao Muyi had mentioned, and added: "This is the way of making a wish that I heard. I have never tried to make a wish by blowing out candles before, so I don't know what is the correct way."
Dong Chengling nodded thoughtfully. She thought for several seconds and said slowly: "...This is not the correct way to make a wish."
"oh?"
"The correct way to make a wish is to hold the hands of your relatives and friends, blow out the candles, close your eyes, kiss their hands, and make a wish." Dong Chengling's voice trembled a little, his eyes fixed on the candle flames on the cake, his face flushed by the candlelight.
Ren Suo sighed, "Is that so?"
"Yes." Dong Chengling nodded seriously.
“I don’t think it’s good.”
Dong Chengling glanced at him, blinked three or four times, and whispered, "Why, why not..."
"What if it's just one person's birthday, and there are no relatives or friends around?" Ren Suo propped up his chin with his hand and said very seriously, "It's too bad to eat cake and make a wish alone..."
Looking at Ren Suo who seemed to be really thinking, Dong Chengling suddenly remembered Qiao Muyi's judgment of Ren Suo.
He is a child who is used to making loneliness his friend.
As long as someone breaks into his heart, he will be willing to open his heart. Is this his true heart or just his pandering?
There is still a long way to go... Dong Chengling smiled and said, "Then why don't I celebrate your birthday with you every year?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Dong Chengling felt his mind go blank and his heart pounding. What's the difference between this kind of statement and "together for a lifetime"?
However, Ren Suo just said "Hey" and was not moved at all. Dong Chengling's eyes suddenly became stern and he asked, "You don't believe it?"
"I believe it." Ren Suo shook his head and said, "But when I graduated from elementary school, my elementary school classmate also swore to me that we would be good friends for life... But now I can't even remember his name. I only remember that he once farted loudly while singing in music class."
"When you make a promise, you always think you will never break it, and you really can't do it when you regret it in the future. However, I am still very happy. Although promises cannot measure feelings or judge right or wrong, at least at the moment they are spoken, they represent sincerity."
Besides, please forgive me, if you really help me celebrate my birthday every year, then I will have to help you celebrate your birthday every year too… It feels like double trouble just thinking about it.
Looking at Ren Suo who looked indifferent, Dong Chengling thought for several seconds, the blush on her face faded, and she returned to her usual calmness. She stretched out her right hand and said softly, "Blow out the candle and make a wish."
Ren Suo blinked, realizing that the only person who could be considered a 'family and friend' here was Dong Chengling in front of him, so he had no choice but to hold her hand, blow out all the candles in one breath, and then make a wish. By the way, who is the god who fulfills birthday wishes? Will making two wishes in a row put you on the blacklist?
No, this is bad. I have expressed my wish. Now life can find my weakness and attack me precisely...
Ren Suo touched Dong Chengling's soft and tender right hand, and all kinds of messy thoughts came to his mind. Dong Chengling's fingers were slender, and to use an old-fashioned way of saying, "suitable for being a pianist", but Dong Chengling was using these hands to cut throats and take out hearts, so it wasn't an insult.
Watching Ren Suo close his eyes and kiss the back of his hand, Dong Chengling rested his left elbow on the table, his chin on his palm, a smile on his face.
She felt that Qiao Muyi's judgment of Ren Suo might not be correct. It was not that Ren Suo really did not have that kind of thoughts, but his standard for commitment was full of fairy-tale-like perception.
Ren Suo was very demanding about promises. Unless it was an extreme case, he would only be touched but not believe it. If he was willing to make a promise, it must be the result of his careful consideration and analysis of his true feelings, and he would never regret it.
Ren Suo may not even realize that he is so cautious about feelings in his subconscious. He has too many things that require his time on a daily basis: games, training, spells... He is immersed in his own little world and is not willing to waste a single moment of time on someone he does not love.
Perhaps Ren Suo would also have the thought of "Maybe she likes me?", but he would quickly eliminate this thought and avoid any tentative actions that would waste time.
Although he is usually casual and doesn't care about anything, for him, perhaps expressing love is equivalent to entrusting a lifetime...
Same as me.
Moreover, he is a person who loves cleanliness and practices diligently... The floor tiles can be used as mirrors. How much time does he spend mopping the floor every day?
Ren Suo opened his eyes and let go of Dong Chengling's hand. Dong Chengling immediately asked, "What wish did you make?"
Because he had just made a wish about the game, Ren Suo's wish this time was more formal: "I hope I can overcome all the difficulties smoothly."
In other words, I hope that this is the only difficult level that can be successfully completed in "Hunted Night".
Dong Chengling was quite satisfied with Ren Suo's words. She said, "Then let's cut the cake. It doesn't matter if you don't have other plans. We can chat all night."
Ren Suo was stunned: "One night?"
"Well, I don't have class tomorrow."
If Dong Chengling was a little hesitant about Qiao Muyi's proposal before, now she has approved of this way of competition. If anyone looks for Ren Suo, Ren Suo will give equal love, but Dong Chengling does not want this result.
What she wanted was Ren Suo's initiative to entrust her with a lifelong pledge.
To do this, she wanted to spend a whole night getting to know Ren Suo.
Click.
At this time, the floor-to-ceiling window on the balcony was hit by a small stone. Dong Chengling looked at the balcony strangely, and Ren Suo's face became strange.
After a while, the doorbell rang. Ren Suo immediately stood up and said, "It must be my sister."
The next second, his hand was grabbed by Dong Chengling.
Dong Chengling looked at him, thought for a moment, and said, "Maybe it's not your sister... I'm at your house in the middle of the night, and it's not good for someone to see me, right?"
Ren Suo was stunned. Wait, that's not what you said when you took my key!
Why do you two suddenly care so much about your reputation?
"Then...then why don't you teleport back now?" Ren Suo suggested.
Dong Chengling is not Qiao Muyi. She has no concept of being trapped. As long as she wants, she can go home with a somersault.
Dong Chengling immediately shook his head and said, “I’m using this excuse not because I want to leave, but because I want the person outside to leave!”
Dong Chengling discovered very early on that Ren Xingmei's attitude towards her was hot and cold. Sometimes Ren Xingmei would tell her news about Ren Suo, but more often, Ren Xingmei would deliberately reduce the opportunities for Ren Suo and Dong Chengling to communicate. For example, after dinner at Dong Chengling's house, she would urge Ren Suo to leave quickly.
If Ren Xingmei found out that she was at Ren Suo's house, even if she didn't do anything, she would definitely stay at Ren Suo's house and ruin this hard-earned night.
Going home first is not an option either, we must put enough pressure on Ren Suo to make him clear the obstacles for the two of them at night!
What's more, the person who came might not be Ren Xingmei...
Given Dong Chengling's personality, she didn't lie at all and said directly: "I still want to continue celebrating your birthday. No matter who it is, you should persuade her to go home first. If she can't go back, let her stay at my house. I will hide...hide in the guest room and listen."
"ha?"
Without waiting for Ren Suo to offer any opinion, Dong Chengling picked up the cake and teleported into the guest room!
When Dong Chengling entered the guest room, she found that although the lights were not on, the room was very bright. There was a birthday cake with lit candles on the table serving as a desk lamp.
"You're better at playing than me, kissing the back of my hand." Qiao Muyi, who was sitting on the bed with her legs crossed, lowered her voice and laughed.
Dong Chengling saw Qiao Muyi and the birthday cake on the table, and she understood everything instantly. She sat on a chair in the room, thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Qiao, you were the first to change the rules. I didn't expect that you could still make a fuss here... Why are you hiding here?"
"Then why are you hiding here again?" Qiao Muyi snorted, "I didn't expect that after I stopped discussing with you, you would become just as cunning as I am."
"It's not that I don't have these little ideas, but usually no one is worthy of my use." Dong Chengling said lightly: "You come so late, there is no car to go back... Where are you going to sleep tonight?"
Qiao Muyi raised her eyebrows slightly. She carefully examined Dong Chengling and her eyes suddenly lit up: "You...you are drooling?"
Dong Chengling subconsciously raised her hand to wipe the corner of her mouth, and this action instantly exposed her. Qiao Muyi covered her mouth with both hands and stared at Dong Chengling with incredible eyes, making Dong Chengling blush so much that water was about to drip out of her face.
Dong Chengling pursed his lips and whispered, "He, he just now, for some reason, smelled particularly good, and his voice was very strange..."
"I understand, I understand." Qiao Muyi did not laugh at her. Instead, she came over and patted Dong Chengling on the shoulder and said, "You can't hide your love for someone. Love will definitely turn into water and flow out... When you heard him say 'Chengling, you are so nice' just now, did you feel like you were going to die and wanted to execute him right there?"
Even though they were all girls, Dong Chengling was still embarrassed by Qiao Muyi's dirty jokes and trembled all over. She turned her head and said, "Listen who's coming... huh?"
