Chapter 24 The Witchcraft Boy 23
The boy chuckled, picked up the blanket next to him and covered her with it, "Of course, it's for Qiuqiu to sleep."
"Otherwise, what do you think I want to do?"
"..." Xu Qiuqiu's face flushed. "I wasn't thinking about anything! I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep."
She closed her eyes, clutched the blanket tightly, and pretended to be dead. After a while, she felt someone lie down next to her.
He then pulled her into his arms, and his voice whispered in her ear, "Sleep."
Xu Qiuqiu felt like crying but had no tears left. How could she sleep with him holding her like this?
She has never had the habit of sleeping with other people, and she has to get up early tomorrow to practice martial arts.
She hadn't thought about it carefully just now. How should she arrange things for him? Tomorrow morning, all her senior sisters and masters will know that she brought a man back. That's just too outrageous!
However, after this incident, she discovered something: whenever she and Qi Chen were lying in bed at the same time, 003 would be blocked, regardless of whether they were doing anything or not, and there would be no response no matter how much she called.
Although her mind was in a mess, she still drifted off to sleep.
Qi Chen lowered his head and glanced at the sleeping girl nestled in his arms. He gently stroked her face with his fingers, his eyes filled with an unusual obsession and longing.
It was already broad daylight, and Yunyulu waited and waited but Xu Qiuqiu did not come. She was puzzled, so she went to her bedroom.
With some dissatisfaction, she pushed open the door and walked into the room, saying, "Xiao Qiu'er, the key to martial arts is perseverance. How could you give up after only four days? It's so late, why aren't you up yet?"
Lifting the beaded curtain, Yun Yulu was so shocked by the sight before her that her jaw nearly dropped. There was a man on Xiao Qiu'er's bed!
Xu Qiuqiu woke up when she heard the sound. Yun Yulu came in too fast, and Qi Chen was seen before she could hide him properly.
She quickly sat up, her face burning red, and called out, "Senior Sister."
Compared to her panic, Qi Chen remained calm and composed. He was a little annoyed that Yun Yulu was disturbing his Qiuqiu's rest, but he didn't show it on his face.
He slowly sat up and put his arm around Xu Qiuqiu's waist, wanting them all to know that Qiuqiu's relationship with him was special.
When he hugged her, Xu Qiuqiu stiffened. Now, no one would believe that nothing had happened between them.
When Yun Yulu saw Qi Chen's face, it looked familiar. Wasn't this the benefactor that Xiao Qiu'er had mentioned a few days ago?
"So you are Xiao Qiu'er's benefactor and friend." Yun Yulu smiled slightly. "The Hehuan Sect actually has quite a few rooms. Please wait a moment, and I will send someone to arrange a room for you, young master."
After saying that, she turned and left without giving Qi Chen a chance to refuse. She didn't care whether Xiao Qiu'er had a man by her side or not, but she felt inexplicably disliked by this young man's strong possessiveness. She was afraid that Xiao Qiu'er would be taken away by him in the future.
After seeing her senior sister leave, Xu Qiuqiu took advantage of the moment to quickly push Qi Chen aside and get dressed.
After she finished dressing, she pulled Qi Chen up, opened the wardrobe, and intended to stuff him inside.
Qi Chen stopped her, slamming the wardrobe door shut, his tone icy, "Am I that shameful?"
"No, no, I just don't know how to explain it to my senior sisters." Xu Qiuqiu was a bit overwhelmed. There was one emotionally unstable and disobedient person on one side, and there were more than a dozen people waiting for her to explain.
"What's there to explain? We've slept together. Does Qiuqiu not intend to acknowledge me?" Qi Chen's face darkened after he finished speaking, his heart aching unbearably. His fingers, which were pressing against the wardrobe, turned white from the force.
Although it was true, Xu Qiuqiu felt incredibly embarrassed hearing it from his mouth. Besides, they hadn't done anything, so why did he make it sound like they had?
"No, no, Ah Chen, don't overthink it," Xu Qiuqiu quickly denied when she saw his pale face.
She quickly calmed down. Since the relationship was already over, why was she still dwelling on it? She should think of a way to persuade her senior sister and master to accept him. After all, she needed to increase her happiness points with him anyway.
After thinking it through, she took Qi Chen's hand and said, "Qi Chen, I was just half asleep, so please don't mind."
Qi Chen's gaze fell on their clasped hands. He smiled enigmatically, then took her hand and intertwined his fingers with hers.
Before long, many people came to her room, including her master and senior sisters.
Yun Yulu stepped out from the crowd, looking at Xu Qiuqiu with innocent eyes. "Little Qiuqiu, I just said that she was a benefactor and friend of Little Qiuqiu, and then Master and my junior sisters were all very curious and came to see."
"..." Who would believe that if I said it? Xu Qiuqiu thought to herself. Faced with pairs of eyes and hands that wouldn't let go, she had no choice but to give up and try to think of what to say next.
The group of girls watched the two of them and began to whisper among themselves.
"As expected of a young talent, Junior Sister's benefactor and friend is quite beautiful," said Second Senior Sister Feishuang.
“Oh dear, you can’t say a man is beautiful, you should say he is handsome,” Fourth Senior Sister Feng Li corrected.
"Look at that young man, why is he holding Junior Sister's hand? Could they be in that kind of relationship?" Fifth Senior Sister Zhiqing said, looking at their clasped hands.
"Don't talk nonsense. Our junior sister wouldn't know any of this. Do you think she's as frivolous as you?" Seventh Senior Sister Hua Rong glanced at Fifth Senior Sister with disdain.
"But in terms of appearance, they are quite a good match," said Tenth Senior Sister Shui Rou with tender eyes.
"What's the use of being good-looking? You only need to be able to protect Junior Sister. Otherwise, you're just a pretty face with no substance," said Twelfth Senior Sister Xueyan with some dissatisfaction.
"Alright, quiet down." At Lan Rui's command, all the girls quieted down.
Lan Rui carefully examined Qi Chen. The young man in front of her was handsome and exceptionally good-looking. She had seen many men in all her years of life, but she had never seen a man as good-looking as him.
She watched the young man holding Xu Qiuqiu's hand, feeling somewhat displeased, as if the cabbage she had raised had been eaten by a pig. However, she still smiled at him outwardly, "Since you are Xiao Qiu's benefactor and also the benefactor of the Hehuan Sect, we must repay you properly. May I ask your name, young master? You can tell me what you want. Money and beauties are both fine with me."
Hearing this, Xu Qiuqiu felt a bit like the kind of scene in a Korean drama where someone offers you five million to leave your son.
Then she heard Lanrui say to her, "Xiaoqiu, come here."
Looking into Lanrui's unyielding gaze, she thought to herself, "I want to go too, but this guy won't let go."
