Chapter 6 First Steps into the World



Ning Qing's house is not far from the school, only about a ten-minute walk away.

Ning Qing opened the door and let Su Xia in, then took a pair of new slippers from the entryway and put them on him.

Don't ask why there were new slippers for Su Xia to change into. The answer is that Ning Qing had considered Su Xia's housing situation when buying the house, and bought two sets of household items.

Of course, you should live with the kids you raise yourself.

Ning Qing told Su Xia to sit on the sofa and went to find the medicine herself. Where does Ning Qing find medicine? Don't ask, she just looks for it in her personal space.

Su Xia saw Ning Qing come out carrying a simple, antique-looking porcelain bottle.

She stopped in front of him, bent down and pinched his chin to apply medicine. His injury was on his face, not serious, but it looked scary.

With this skin-restoring ointment, I'll be fully recovered by tomorrow.

For this vixen who loves to fight and is also vain, this kind of medicinal ointment is indispensable.

Fighting fiercely today, covered in wounds, but waking up tomorrow, you'll be a beautiful little devil again.

Of course, it only looks beautiful on the surface; the internal damage cannot be cured.

Ning Qing was very close, and Su Xia could feel Ning Qing's breath spraying on his face. The fragrance of Ning Qing lingered around his nose, and Su Xia felt a little uncomfortable.

He turned his face slightly to the side, and his ears were slightly hot and red.

"Don't move, apply the medicine properly."

Ning Qing whispered in Su Xia's ear, gently lifting his chin with her fingers and turning him around.

Her voice was gentle yet clear.

Su Xia's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. Her hands unconsciously gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and her eyelashes fluttered like small fans.

Ning Qing had just finished applying the medicine to Su Xia and saw how pitiful he looked.

Ning Qing's gaze fell on his pink lips, her brows furrowed slightly, and her fingers gently traced his lips.

"Stop biting, doesn't it hurt?" Ning Qing felt a little sorry for her. Such a beautiful lip shape. If she bites it again, it will swell up and won't look pretty.

The moment Ning Qing's fingers touched Su Xia's lips, Su Xia felt a jolt of electricity run through her body.

My mind went blank, and I had no choice but to follow the other person's instructions.

I accidentally bit Ning Qing's finger.

"Pfft, kid, are you stupid?"

Seeing Su Xia's silly expression, Ning Qing couldn't help but chuckle.

Hearing Ning Qing's laughter, Su Xia felt ashamed and indignant. She rushed into the bathroom, leaving behind only the words, "I'm going to the bathroom."

He rushed in, closed the door, turned on the tap, and splashed cold water on his face.

His heart was pounding, and he didn't know what was wrong with him.

He kept telling himself, "Don't overthink it, don't overthink it. They're both men, what's with the heartbeat?!"

Having mentally prepared herself, Su Xia opened the door and came out.

Ning Qing was already cooking in the kitchen when Su Xia went over.

"Mr. Ning, I've bothered you for a long time. I should go back now. Thank you for saving me today."

"No, I have something to tell you after we finish eating. Come and help me pick the vegetables first."

Since the other party had asked her to help pick the vegetables, Su Xia couldn't refuse.

Ning Qing was skillfully making sweet and sour pork ribs, and it smelled delicious.

Ning Qing turned her head to meet his gaze, and smiled slightly, "Hungry?"

Ning Qing used chopsticks to pick up a piece of pork rib and placed it near Su Xia's lips. Su Xia hesitated for a moment but then opened her lips and bit into the rib.

"How is it? The taste is alright, isn't it?"

"It's delicious, sweet and sour."

Su Xia licked her lips, as if savoring the taste in her mouth.

Actually, I was puzzled. Why did the ribs, which looked so appetizing, have such a strange smell?

Seeing his adorable appearance, Ning Qing couldn't help but ruffle Su Xia's hair.

Ning Qing sighed and said that the baby's hair was so nice to stroke.

Su Xia saw the hand ruffling her hair. For a moment, she didn't know what to say, so she pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Go set the table first, I'll be done soon, then we can eat."

Ning Qing gently flicked his forehead.

"Okay," Su Xia said as she walked out of the kitchen.

Soon the dishes were served, and the two sat down at the table.

Ning Qing helped the little boy pick up food, her face beaming with a motherly smile the whole time.

Su Xia was so frightened by Ning Qing's laughter that she got goosebumps all over her body and ate her rice even more diligently.

The system smiled like an auntie in the space. This host was the right choice; he was very good at fulfilling the mission objective.
