Qu Shaoyu stood under the big tree, looking at the agile, free-flowing white figure in the courtyard.
A look of infatuation gradually appeared in his eyes.
Ning Qing wielded her sword swiftly, as fast as a flash of light, and amidst the afterimages of the blade, she remained elegant and unrestrained.
Before long, Ning Qing demonstrated the sword techniques from the second volume of the martial arts manual.
Sheathed his sword and turned around, his gaze falling on the person standing under the big tree.
"Well? Can you see it clearly now?"
Upon hearing Ning Qing's voice, Qu Shaoyu snapped out of his daze.
Suddenly realizing his predicament, the naive Qu Shaoyu quickly avoided Ning Qing's gaze.
Looking down and turning to the other side, he felt utterly ashamed and indignant.
She was furious at herself for being so captivated by a man's charm.
I felt even more ashamed of myself, wondering how such an inexplicable emotion could have arisen within me.
This feeling is so alluring, it's almost intoxicating.
Qu Shaoyu gave a low, haphazard reply; at that moment, all he wanted was to escape from this inexplicable atmosphere.
"Look... I can see it clearly now."
I didn't see it clearly at all. I was just too busy admiring that white figure and his elegant and unrestrained sword-wielding posture.
I have no interest in learning swordsmanship!
The sudden change in the boy did not escape Ning Qing's all-knowing gaze.
His unfocused gaze, his awkward unease, and the blush that gradually spread across his ears and cheeks.
Everything suggests that a certain seed has been planted in the boy's heart.
Just take good care of it and water it frequently so that it can slowly sprout, grow strong, and eventually become a towering tree.
Then it will flower and bear fruit, well... it's impossible for it to bear fruit, but as for flowering... it has to happen!
Ning Qing curled her lips into a smile.
"Have you been able to identify the inconsistencies?"
Qu Shaoyu tilted his head back again and gulped down water, forcing himself to clear his head and calm his chaotic thoughts.
When he looked up at Ning Qing again, his eyes were filled with determination and clarity.
The awkwardness and discomfort from before were gone.
Ning Qing felt a little regretful when she saw that he had recovered so quickly.
It seems my charm wasn't strong enough, and the drug I used wasn't potent enough!
Having overheard its host's thoughts, the system couldn't help but ask again: "Host, is there another possibility?"
Ning Qing: Hmm?
System: That's right, perhaps there are factors in the target's upbringing that give him stronger self-control than others?
Ning Qing smiled and said, "Little cat, I love hearing that."
system……
Why am I spouting such blunt truths?! Why can't I control my mouth?
Qu Shaoyu looked at Ning Qing with a normal expression.
"Brother Qing, you were too fast just now. I only saw a blur and couldn't see your sword techniques at all."
"Could you demonstrate it again?"
"This time I will definitely look at it carefully."
Ning Qing smiled slightly and agreed.
My wife didn't see my movements clearly just now because I had some ulterior motives.
He deliberately increased the speed of his sword swings.
The purpose... of course, is to demonstrate and practice more times so that I can leave a better impression on my wife.
"Okay, this time you need to watch carefully, I'll be a little slower."
Qu Shaoyu nodded.
"Okay, Brother Qing."
Ning Qing swung the small black sword in her hand once again, but her movements were much slower than before.
