Ning Qing spread her arms.
"bring it on".
Qu Shaoyu's eyes lit up, and he quickly threw himself into Ning Qing's arms.
He held Ning Qing tightly around the waist with both hands, resting his chin on her shoulder.
He whispered a name in Ning Qing's ear.
"Brother Qing".
Ning Qing gently stroked his back with one hand.
"Yes, I'm here."
Ning Qing was very satisfied with the sensation coming from her palm.
My swordsmanship training over the past two years has paid off; my back muscles are now firm and strong.
"Brother Qing, do you know that you scared me just now?"
Ning Qing? ??? Completely baffled!
"How did I scare you?"
Qu Shaoyu pouted slightly.
"You looked like an illusion just now, not like a real person."
"Do you know how scared I was just now? I was scared that you would suddenly disappear and I would never see you again."
Ning Qing smiled and kissed him on the ear.
She gently ruffled his long, black hair.
"Silly girl, I promised I would stay by your side and protect you, and I will never break my promise."
Upon hearing this, Qu Shaoyu's eyes lit up, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
He tightened his grip on Ning Qing's arms even more.
"Brother Qing, you are so kind."
It's because you're so wonderful that I'm always so anxious and insecure!
Ning Qing felt uncomfortable being strangled, so she patted his back.
"Okay, stop hugging so tightly."
Qu Shaoyu loosened his grip on her arm a little.
But he stubbornly insisted on saying it.
"No, I want to hold you forever and never let go."
Only when I hold you tightly and feel your body temperature can I be sure that you are by my side.
Ning Qing sensed the unease in Qu Shaoyu's heart.
But she didn't understand what she had done to make him so uneasy.
I stayed by his side for several years, doing nothing but quietly being there for him.
What Ning Qing didn't know was that, due to the special nature of her identity, a painting spirit that was something never seen or heard of before was an incredibly fantastical and unbelievable thing for the human Qu Shaoyu.
What's more, he had fallen in love with her. His deep affection and possessiveness, coupled with the profound sense of powerlessness he felt at not being able to hold onto her tightly, made him feel uneasy.
Ning Qing was an ethereal, dreamlike existence in Qu Shaoyu's heart.
Ning Qing raised an eyebrow and joked.
"Okay, then let's stick together forever, wherever we go."
Unexpectedly, Qu Shaoyu nodded as if it were a serious matter.
"Yes, that's perfect. I don't have to worry about you suddenly disappearing."
Ning Qing chuckled and gently patted his little bottom.
"What kind of weird things are you thinking about with that little brain of yours! How could I suddenly disappear?"
Qu Shaoyu stared intently at Ning Qing.
"I keep dreaming that you left without saying goodbye and suddenly disappeared from my world. No matter how I call out or search for you, you never appear again."
After saying that, he bit Ning Qing's neck, intending to bite her deeply so that he would know whether she was also flesh and blood like a human being!
But in the end, he couldn't bring himself to bite hard; he only bit lightly, without even leaving a tooth mark.
Ning Qing gently stroked his back and spoke slowly.
"You have to bite deeper to leave a mark."
Qu Shaoyu turned and glanced at Ning Qing.
"You really want me to bite?"
Ning Qing tilted her head slightly, revealing her fair and beautiful neck.
Qu Shaoyu gazed at the smooth, white neck before him, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
