Chapter 992 A Girl's Transformation at Eighteen [Seeking Double Monthly Tickets!]
Perhaps it was because the girl practiced swordsmanship diligently that her body was slender and well-proportioned, with her arms and wrists looking delicate and graceful.
Logically speaking, a certain area should be quite flat, but that one glance just now told outsiders that it wasn't flat at all, but rather quite well-endowed.
In the past life, to put it bluntly, this characteristic was... hidden thunder.
At this moment, Ouyang Rong had already looked away from A Qing lying on his lap, but some thoughts were running through his mind.
This is beyond human control and cannot be prevented by human intervention.
The main point is that the fleeting glance just now directly confirmed Ouyang Rong's previous sensations and guesses in the bathroom... It seemed that A Qing wasn't wearing any undergarments under her nightgown, but she clearly brought undergarments with her before taking a bath yesterday evening, and she was busy looking for them for quite a while, almost getting tricked by the little black spirit who had secretly hidden them, and being smeared and misunderstood by her...
So, I don't know if Aqing picked them again before going to sleep.
Perhaps it's because the hidden thunder is quite large, so wearing small clothes would be inconvenient and could easily cause pain... Ouyang Rong understood this quite well, because his junior sister, with the heart of a bodhisattva, used to seek out her studious senior brother for in-depth "discussions" when they were in Xunyang.
At this moment, Ouyang Rong's thoughts became a bit chaotic. He couldn't understand how the girl who used to be as thin as a bamboo pole with yellow hair could have grown into this size.
They're all starting to show signs of wanting to catch up with their junior sister.
Could it be that the soil and water of Yunmeng Sword Marsh are special, or is there some kind of bonus to becoming a Yue woman?
Ouyang Rong was completely baffled, and couldn't help but recall Lady Zhi Shuang's physical condition...
In the end, however, she had no choice but to give up trying to explain, and could only comfort herself with the saying "a girl changes a lot as she grows up" and offer a brief explanation of the matter.
"Brother, are you tired?"
Aqing seemed to notice Ouyang Rong's unusual silence and asked a question out of curiosity.
Ouyang Rong shook his head.
Meeting her innocent gaze, which looked up at him with curiosity, Ouyang Rong suddenly realized that some of the things Miao Si had said yesterday were indeed true.
Yesterday, Xiao Mo Jing's unnecessary precautions were not without reason, but I won't go into too much detail.
Ah Qing is no longer a child; she has grown up. A young girl's body is like a spring-wound willow tree in spring, which can be completed in an instant... It is indeed time for a younger sister to be wary of her older brother.
As Ouyang Rong remained silent, A Qing's voice came through.
"Brother..."
She called out softly, and seeing him lower his head, she continued:
"Do you remember when we first met at Donglin Temple... It seems like it was raining heavily that night, with thunder and lightning. You came to visit your brother and even had a meal at my house. Because it was raining and inconvenient to go back, your brother and mother asked you to stay with them..."
As Ouyang Rong listened, a look of reminiscence flashed in his eyes; it had happened several years ago.
"I remember... back then, who could have imagined things would turn out like this now?"
He then asked in confusion:
"Why is Aqing asking this?"
Ah Qing laughed and said, "Brother, I later heard the masters in the temple chanting sutras. An old monk often talked about the depth of karmic connections. Everything in the world, as long as we meet, is connected by a karmic connection. If we become entangled together, then the karmic connection is deep. As long as there is a karmic connection, anything is possible..."
"Looking at it this way, brother, you and I...our family are really destined to meet."
Ouyang Rong smiled:
"How come you've started believing in this stuff?"
Aqing bit her lip and thought for a while before saying:
"I suddenly feel a bit emotional. Along the way, so many things have happened that I never imagined, including what happened in Dragon City, including now that I'm cultivating in Sword Swamp... And all these changes are thanks to my brother, thanks to when he came to my house for dinner... It was all brought by my brother."
Aqing turned her head to the side, her eyes gleaming slightly in the darkness as she looked at him:
"Just now in the bathroom, I hugged my brother. Although it was a bit abrupt, I couldn't help but think of the time after we finished eating at Donglin Temple, when my brother hugged me and helped me wrap my clothes..."
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Rong fell silent.
He knew which matter Aqing was referring to.
It turns out that what she was trying to say by bringing up that dinner was this incident, but it was something she was too embarrassed to talk about...
I still remember that day after dinner, young Aqing, intimidated by the official power of the magistrate of Longcheng County, and with some feudal dregs in his presence, took off her clothes in the dark in front of him.
At that moment, Ouyang Rong rushed forward and took off his robe to wrap around her, thus protecting the girl's innocence.
The way the two of them hugged then was exactly the same as the way they had hugged in the bathroom just now, and even the fact that one of them was naked was exactly the same.
It was probably around this time that Aqing thought of that old incident.
After a short while, Ouyang Rong spoke:
“Ah Qing is quite insightful to be able to understand this Zen principle at such a young age. However, compared to Ah Qing’s view on fate, your brother’s words are slightly pessimistic, or rather, Ah Qing is more optimistic.”
Aqing tilted her head:
"What do you mean, brother?"
Ouyang Rong said softly:
"Fate is not static. Just because you have fate doesn't mean you can rest easy. It's like drinking water from a bowl. Even if you leave it empty, there will come a day when the water in the bowl is gone."
For some reason, Aqing felt a little uncomfortable listening to this.
Ouyang Rong felt A Qing's small hand tighten its grip on his wrist, and whispered:
"Nothing remains unchanged and is always in a state of prosperity. This applies not only to a woman's appearance, but also to a man's fortune, fate, and destiny. Just like the moon in the sky, it has its phases of waxing and waning, and its brightness and darkness."
He suddenly chuckled softly, and then sincerely said to Aqing:
“Ah Qing, don’t you think this is what fairness is all about? We shouldn’t be discouraged by this; instead, we should cherish it even more. Time waits for no one.”
Ouyang Rong murmured two sentences in succession, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, like the North Star in the early morning sky.
Aqing was lying on his lap, looking up at his face, and for a moment she was quite engrossed in looking at him.
"Brother."
She suddenly shouted.
"Um?"
Ouyang Rong lowered his head and asked.
"nothing."
The girl shook her head.
Outside the window, the sky was beginning to lighten.
The two remained in that position, and began to doze off.
Speaking of Ouyang Rong, no one knows when he started to lie down and rest in a daze.
Until the sound of the wardrobe opening came from outside, followed by Miaosi's exclamation:
"What...what are you doing? Why are you sleeping together?"
Miao Si jumped onto the bed and stared at him, asking.
Ouyang Rong became a little more awake, turned his head and glanced at them, and found that the two of them were sleeping in a fairly normal position.
At dawn, Ouyang Rong and A Qing fell asleep while chatting. A Qing was probably also affected by him and fell asleep as well.
However, Ouyang Rong was now unsure who had fallen asleep first, and he didn't know who had covered him with the blankets; perhaps they had unconsciously pulled on them together...
At this moment, Aqing was no longer lying on Ouyang Rong's lap; the two of them were sleeping side by side on the pillow, with the blanket covering them.
Ouyang Rong felt a heaviness in his shoulder. Looking down, he saw that A Qing had taken his arm.
Aqing was curled up in the bedding, hugging his arm tightly with both hands, her little face buried in his arm, dozing off.
Ouyang Rong could even feel the girl's warm breath, rippling against his shoulder, a warm and ticklish sensation...
Ouyang Rong felt that there was nothing wrong with the position between the two of them; the main problem was that they both fell asleep in a daze after they finished.
However, neither the brother nor sister crossed the line.
But at this moment, Miaosi, who had just woken up in the morning, seemed to be making a big fuss.
Ouyang Rong frowned and glanced at her. Perhaps it was the blush on A Qing's face that made it easy to misunderstand... because she was curled up in the quilt and her face was buried, so her face was red from the stuffiness.
However, Miao Si ignored this and was clearly thinking about something amiss.
Her eyes widened, and she rebuked:
"How could you sleep like that... Xiao Rongzi, did you do it on purpose...? Well, Xiao Rongzi, your wicked thoughts have finally been exposed..."
Ouyang Rong was too lazy to explain, and still feeling a bit sleepy, so he reached out and swept it away, drew the curtains, and went back to sleep.
However, Ah Qing seemed to have woken up, and she groggily raised her head and looked around.
"What's wrong, brother?"
"It's okay, you can continue sleeping. I'm getting some rest too."
"Ah Qing is not sleepy anymore, brother, you should get some rest."
"Uh-huh."
Ouyang Rong didn't think too much about it. He pulled his arm out of A Qing's embrace, turned over, lay on his side, and continued to sleep soundly.
The two were clearly on different time zones. For Aqing, morning was an early start, but for Ouyang Rong, who had to work the night shift in the canteen every night, it was the time to sleep soundly.
Before falling asleep, Ouyang Rong vaguely felt that A Qing had covered him with a blanket.
Then, after being kicked off the bed, Miaosi seemed to jump onto Aqing's shoulder, as Aqing complained about herself... I have no recollection of what happened after that.
The day passed quickly in his sleep. During this time, Ouyang Rong woke up to drink water, and it was Aqing by his bedside who handed him the water.
In his hazy state, he noticed that Ah Qing seemed to be sitting on the bed, doing something, as if she was watching over him.
I slept until sunset.
Perhaps because Aqing was guarding him, he slept very soundly.
When Ouyang Rong woke up rubbing his eyes, he looked around and found that no one was around.
But he inexplicably smelled the aroma of food.
"Aqing?"
He tried calling out, but no one answered.
Ouyang Rong got out of bed somewhat lazily, went out and looked around, and found the bamboo tube containing the bronze scroll, which he placed next to his pillow.
There was no one in the house or the yard.
Only his clothes and Aqing's clothes were hanging on the clothesline, swaying in the breeze from the dinner table.
The aroma of the food was coming from the kitchen.
When Ouyang Rong went into the kitchen, he found a hot meal waiting for him.
Miaosi was lying on the stove, her little hands touching her round belly, fast asleep in a sprawling position, with an empty bowl next to her, as if she had eaten and drunk her fill.
But there were still some sumptuous dishes, heating in the pot, as if waiting for something.
Ouyang Rong was quiet for a while.
I looked back at the empty courtyard, where no one was to be seen.
Ouyang Rong didn't rush to the dining hall to work as usual. He silently walked forward, filled a bowl with hot rice, and began to eat it with the hot dishes that A Qing had made.
The noise seemed to have woken up the little ink spirit who was sleeping soundly nearby.
"Xiao Rongzi, what... what are you doing... why are you stealing food again?"
Ouyang Rong really wanted to ask, what does "again" mean?
But on second thought, it's obvious without even guessing that what it meant by "stealing food" was something broad.
Without responding, Ouyang Rong buried his head in his rice, eating quickly and efficiently.
Miao Si seemed a little anxious, as if afraid that Ouyang Rong would finish all the food:
"This was made for me by Ah Qing. You're not allowed to eat it all. Leave some for me, just a little..."
Ouyang Rong was too lazy to expose her, so he asked directly:
"When did Aqing leave?"
Miao Si crossed her arms and snorted coldly:
"It's been about half an hour. You're sleeping like a log, I can't wake you up no matter how much I call you, so I've stopped. Ah Qing is being silly too, she told me not to wake you and to let you sleep, but judging from her expression, she won't leave until you wake up. If she weren't afraid of being late and being punished by her master, she probably would have waited until you woke up before leaving..."
At this point, she couldn't help but put her hands on her hips and complain:
"Little Rongzi, can you snore less when you sleep? It's too noisy. Only Aqing can tolerate you. This fairy can't stand it at all. Your snoring is the loudest, without a doubt."
Ouyang Rong nodded and replied, "That's because you didn't hear yourself."
Miao Si's eyes widened, and she jumped up:
"What are you muttering about?"
Like a grumpy kitten whose tail has been stepped on.
Ouyang Rong nodded again: "Whoever was snoring when I came in, I'll say it's them."
Little Mo Jing immediately bristled and leaped high to scratch his face, but halfway there, Ouyang Rong caught him without even looking up, freezing him in mid-air. His limbs flailed wildly, clearly in a great hurry.
Like a TV show to watch while eating, after teasing Miaosi for a while and having eaten and drunk his fill, Ouyang Rong abandoned the tormented little Mo Jing and turned to leave.
As he stepped out of the courtyard, Ouyang Rong suddenly remembered what A Qing had said after the thunderstorm that morning.
He really has a special connection with Aqing's family.
These days, while lurking in Jianze, it seems that Ouyang Rong is always busy cooking for everyone else. Only A Qing thinks about her older brother, wondering if he has eaten enough, and wants to cook him a meal before leaving.
Just like Ouyang Rong's response to A Qing back then.
While fate may play a part, the most important thing is whether, given the opportunity, one puts in the effort.
Dusk passed quickly, and night fell.
Upon arriving at the dining hall, Ouyang Rong saw Wu Cui and immediately pulled her aside to a secluded spot.
Under the latter's curious gaze, his first words were:
"The Five Goddesses have responded."
Wu Cui was stunned for a moment, then her face lit up with uncontrollable joy.
"Really, really..."
She stammered, looking flattered.
Ouyang Rong observed Wu Cui's expression and continued speaking calmly:
"The Five Goddesses cannot leave the water prison for a short time. They have sent word to a personal disciple to teach you and guide you through your difficulties..."
